Hi everyone! Nice to see you all again.
I've missed you all on GE, but have been a bit busy (and lazy probably too)! I've changed churches, due to travel problems to my old one, and am very happy where I am. God is so good.
I ate all of my grandson's Christmas present except the Christmas Tree shaped Snickers. So I have to replace the Flipz white fudge covered pretzels!
That is so much like me.
I had an endoscopy in November. My GP fast-tracked it as a cancer risk, but thankfully the biopsies came back benign; praise God.
(Have you heard the joke about a class of children being asked "What is benign?" and some kid answered "Be nine is what you be after you be eight"!)
After the doctor told me it all looked okay from the cancer angle, he said that I had a hiatus hernia. Far less serious thankfully. However the relatively trivial bad news began: no eating too late at night
, no spicy food
and chocolate is one of the worst things for it
! So I gave up chocolate. That lasted six weeks (which is five weeks, six days and 20 hours more than my attempts at veganism, which only lasted between mackerel salad at lunchtime and chicken curry in the evening if you don't count the milk I put in my afternoon cup of tea.
). Then Christmas came and with it boxes of chocolates. So I'm back to eating chocolate but less of it. Thankfully that seems to be okay, and my doctor said I can go by whether or not the symptoms reappear, which thankfully they haven't even with moderately spicy food.
Hello, how is everyone?
I'm deliberately housebound until the weather reaches the double digits.
They remodeled our Walmart. I've only been there once. I couldn't find things and had to take my ride home with only a few items and very tired legs. I can't order online until the snow outside melts. The driveway and porch are buried.
I hope that is soon Rescued One!
Hoping everyone is well and a belated Happy New Year to you all.
