This is meryl’s blog talking. I wanted to sneak in and brag I’m five years old today! You can see my first lame post here. Meryl’s earlier postings were more personal as that is how most blogs were in the “old days.” But she realized that no one gives a flying fig about a blogger’s [...]
Someone must’ve spiked my coffee. I found two hats and decided to wear ‘em both. Mickey Mouse on Rx, no?
I have to share an awesome Mother’s Day card I got from my sister. My kids and hubby gave me wonderful cards. My sister’s takes the cake in originality, humor and fits me to a tee. The cover has a mom sleeping on the sofa in her robe. Dad and kids have their mouths wide up [...]
Just published a long rant over at Bionic Ear Blog about ambition. I’m a competitive person by nature. Though I played a lot of sports, it goes beyond that and I struggle with it almost every day. It’s funny because my self-esteem goes all over the place. If I weren’t deaf, would I be less competitive? [...]
Yes, I misspelled cwazy on purpose. Kind of feel like a cwazy wabbit. I took the baby to the dentist on Monday to get his broken tooth repaired. This was no ornery toddler tooth-chipping.

I’m still anemic, but the numbers are slowly coming up. I managed to sleep till 8:30am today and Paul tried waking me up earlier since our [...]
I’ve returned full-time in my day job. The only problem I am having with the adjustment is extreme fatigue. I’ve been exercising, watching what I eat, ensuring I get the needed sleep, and taking vitamins. But I continue to trudge along and fall asleep whenever my body gets the opportunity (like resting on the sofa [...]

They shoulda had Inauguration Day here in Texas. The weather is fabulous! A birthday girl can’t ask for nicer weather. The best part of it all is the sweet note accompanying the flowers that I got from Paul. Thank you for all the wishes. I need all the happiness I can get as my day went [...]
