The rocks in my head

Well, it's been awhile since my last post (oddly enough I feel as if I'm in the confessional at church). The rocks in my head got loose and have been wreaking havoc on me. The official diagnosis is benign positional vertigo and let me tell ya, it ain't fun. Think of your worst drunk/hangover combo with no end in sight. Yeah, good times. NO!! Unfortunately, it has included a couple of hospital visits and mucho drugs to finally come to this conclusion. Many thanks to the docs of Ohio Head and Neck Surgeons for bringing me back to the land of the living yesterday. My treatments won't be done until next week, but at least I can finally walk, speak, and watch tv without feeling like I am going to lose my cookies. Today has been the first day that I can look at the computer enough to actually post, and so here I am. I'm ba-aack!

Santa's Little Helper


Mel has been asked by the Marines to represent Toys For Tots as their spokesperson, and she is doing such a great job. They've also joined her in promoting her platform of volunteerism by supporting her coloring book project and distributing them with the children's gifts this year. She is a great Miss Ohio and I'm so proud of her. The legacy she is leaving is truly far-reaching and meaningful. It's an exciting time!
