Catching up with.........ME!

Sorry to disappoint you if you thought this was going to be a Catching up with the Kardashians post!! Ha Ha
Seriously though, those girls are crazy.  I compare watching their show/fake life to a train wreck.  It's horrible and unsightly yet you can't stop watching it. 

I had my second opinion with my new ENT doctor (Dr Marrs) a week a go.  He felt it was too soon for surgery and that we should try more aggressive meds, but said that surgery may still be in the future. All my problems have been on the left side, but when he looked up my nose he said I had a sinus infection on my right side now as well.  So for 20 days I am on a very strong, very expensive antibiotic. I also have two new nasal sprays.  New Dr also wants me to get my eyes examined to make sure my eyes are healthy and my vision is not changing. New CT scan done in about a month and a surgery decision will be made then.  

I rented a CPAP machine for a month and had a follow up doctor's appointment to tell me that I am non-compliant. Yup, sounds about right! lol  The test results said I wore the mask on average four hours a night, before ripping it off in my sleep.  It never got easier.  I told him I wanted to try the new FDA approved sleep apnea treatment called Provent. No machine, no mask, no tubes, just two small adhesive strips that go over each nostril.  So now I am waiting for my insurance company to decided if they will cover it or not. 

The Week That Was......
Jeff's was on vacation all last week, but is back to work today.
Started on lawn work, but still have much to do.
Saw the documentary, "Bully"
Went out to the Chitty Farm and went through the old houses and scored some good junk and plants!
First Fridays - all the flea market/antique stores open in the West Bottoms.  I love looking at all the trash to treasure projects people come up with. Inspiration!!
First Friday also included several area food trucks parked in the KC Star parking lot.  It looked like an RV Park, but with heavenly smells wafting through the air. 
Brookside Art Fair - always fun!
Best of all, spending time with J! xoxoxo

Have a good week and enjoy this cutsie pic!
