Its been a while since I stopped in. I've been staying busy and for the most part enjoying life. My health is so-so, the remicade treatments help a lot but I know I will never be cured or back to my old self and I'm learning to adjust to my new normal. I still go to counseling every few weeks and Will and I are doing good together.
We still haven't finished the house repainting!! Pretty much everything except the bathroom is done though. Summer arrived and I'd rather spend my time on other projects than painting the bathroom but I would like to get it done eventually!
We have been involved in more activities and have made some new friends, which is nice. I'm slowly reclaiming the garden. I'm having to downsize as its just too much to keep up with. It got neglected for too long when I was really ill so it will take a while to get it back together and looking good.
The "boys" are good! I've been bathing them myself to save money and weekly baths for two long haired dogs is a lot of work! But, I love'em! 
Otherwise, still working for the eye doctor and taking it one day at a time!

I'm so glad to hear this, Michele. I know it's tough adjust to health limitations but it sounds like life is so incredibly much better for you know that it's almost unbelievable.
Thanks for letting us know how you are - you popped into my head a couple of days ago - and please take care.

Howdy Michele!!
I'm happy to see you're doing well!! One day at a time, right? That's all it takes. It must be hard to adjust to the new normal, but I understand what that is like, and I'm glad you're adjusting.
I'm happy you and Will are taking time for yourselves too.
Hope the sun is shining in MI!!
HUGS!
