I haven't mentioned it, but I'm having little issues here and there that I'm sure are related to allergies. I think there was some permanant damage done after Teiguen was born. Things such as....I used to be able to carry a good dozen grocery bags upstairs in one haul. I can still do it, but now my arms ache like crazy.

It feels like the same kind of muscle pain I had for those weeks right after he was born.

I'm getting to the point where, if I had to guess, I'd say that the eventual cause of my death will have something to do with autoimmune system problems.

This is prompting me to wonder if a move back west wouldn't be for the best...or maybe if it won't be necessary eventually. You know, my allergy issues are the reason why my parents moved to CO in the first place. I guess it was complete silliness on my part to choose to move back to the midwest!

BTW...I think in the past two months I've come to terms with being single forever. Knowing what I know now, I'm not sure that if I could go back to being 30 again I'd ever be willing to take my aunt in...I knew then that I was giving up the opportunity to have a normal life by agreeing to take her on. But, I didn't realize the ramifications financially. It closed a lot of doors that I didn't realize it would affect!
