WHERE HAVE I BEEN YOU WONDER?

All these days gone by and no postings. It's gets
hard to write everyday with kids around. By the time
I get a chance I'm just so tired! Anyway, I won't
bore you with my sleep deprivation stories.

UPDATE: The macrobiotic lifestyle is much harder than
I anticipated. I hadn't had meat, or chicken in like
two weeks but today I went crazy and had a hotdog! Eek!
I know, of all the things I could have "gone off the wagon"
with, a hotdog! I have to tell you though, I am so proud
of Ser, he is totally sticking to this new life stlye change.
He's being really good about sticking to what he can and cannot
eat. I am very proud of him.

THE LATEST

Well folks, the latest is we are status quo on the kidney
transplant situation. We are now sitting and waiting for
his sister to do what she has to do to see if she can be a donor.
In the meantime, we've decided, (actually Ser decided) to make a
lifestyle change regarding diet. He went to visit a nutritionist
who specializes in macrobiotic diets.

When he came home with the exciting news that he was psyched to
lose weight and get healthy I was all for it, that is until he started
reading off the sample menus.

Oh my G-d! You don't know, the "Little Mermaid" has a more scrumptous
diet than these food items! Seaweed is a treat with this diet! Have you
ever had kombu or kale? I mean really, what the heck is that?

Well, today we learned!
