Weekend Getaway

The Days We've All Been Waiting for:

Weekends are great, right?! For Ken and I weekends are mostly spent indoors. Ken takes on the frightening aisle of the grocery stores while I do a lot of sleeping (what's new?). We both try to clean, but I can do very little so he does most of it. Ever since I got sick I've had a hard time with allergies. Dirt and dust drive me crazy, and can even cause pain. Once we've gotten the apartment "Lymie livable" we usually hang out together and sometimes laugh until we're almost in tears...like we were tonight! To most young couples our life might sound incredibly boring and like we're already wearing dentures. I do feel old at times! And I might just need those dentures earlier than later because of teeth issues. But it's all good. We're growing closer during this time and Ken's become quite the cleaner. :) Thankful for him. We try to keep taking it one day at a time. 

A Great Time with Family:

This past weekend we traveled to Lynchburg to see my grandparents and some aunts and uncles. We had a wonderful time. As long as I slept in past noon my pain was minimal.  I only had one pain attack. Getting to see my grandparents was SO special! Good cooking, smiles, tender hugs, and great conversation. Here are some pics from the weekend: 

Wish we had gotten some with Aunt Mary and Uncle David too.

Trip wouldn't be complete without Snickers

Love my grandparents and hate that we had to leave. The trip was just the right amount of time to be away. It pushed my body some but didn't make me collapse. (More on traveling with Lyme disease is written on my very first blog post) Since being off antibiotics, we're just now getting to the point where we feel like we can breathe. My body is healing but the bacteria will keep spreading the longer I'm off. Doctor's appointment on the 24th. 

Love my family.
