Cankles and what???

I know it may not seem like it because of the time I sent my blog last night but I am sleeping better these days - really! I am not sure if it because I have been wearing myself down or getting used to these meds but I like it!

Okay, okay, it is time to come clean: I don't just have cankles. I do not have a "cute" word for it - yet. But I feel I should prepare you. I have some swelling in my belly. No - not just swelling... I look like I am a good 8 months pregnant. This goes along with the cankles (caused by the disease).It is very uncomfortable - and a bit embarassing.

People I do not know tell say things like "good luck with your baby" or "when are you due?

"Here is where you come in: any good comebacks (if any)? (Careful people!). In general it does not bother me because I know it is just one thing I have to deal with - but it might be fun to think about responses.

On the physical ailment note: a friend suggested I make a picture book chronicling all these things that will eventually get me to good health (God willing). So don't be surprised if you are asked to take a pic with me with your small ankles and bellys (only exception being Amy when she begins showing her pregnancy - anyone else have anything to tell me?).

Wow - missing a couple of days of blogs really leads to a lot to say...
