I'm a Mom, a high school teacher, and an End Stage Renal Disease Patient because of PKD. Anyone got a kidney to share?

Turns out my donor has to have another surgery before they'll let her donate. At least a 2 month delay. Damn.

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

Peeling tomatoes to freeze them. It's a slurpy job, but somebody's got to do it!

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

dreary day today, waiting for phone calls that never came. At least the plumber showed up....

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

can't sleep......Ugh! I hate it when this happens.

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

I'm bored. Sigh. Not for lack of things to do, just for lack of something fun... :0)

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

Finished painting my lovely green walls today. Now to finish the boring part - the trim :0) . Waiting to hear from Ashley re kidney.

Just finished cooking dinner for 30 at the local Ronald McDonald House with my friend Sue. It was pretty cool. I think we'll sign up again.

thinking murderous thoughts about squash bugs in my garden. I don't mind losing the zukes, but they're moving to the yellow squash. Ack!

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

...sitting here wondering if I can possibly get everything ready for a transplant in September. Wow - so much to do, just in case.

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

Just back from the Celtic Fest. Gaelic Storm was great, and the funnel cake was pretty darned tasty! Thanks, Dayton, for the great party.

looking at my new green living room walls. Very cheerful!

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

Ah, Waffle House! There's nothing like hot grits on a cool, rainy morning.

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

...researching how to acidify my soil. My blueberry plants look miserable. This calls for a trip to the garden center!

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

Just back from an Eagle Scout Court of Honor. Hopefully my youngin' will have his own someday.....

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

so very glad to be home...... will be good to sleep in my own bed tonight, cats and all!

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

tobacco worms..... ewwwww!

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

I've lost my momentum, and there's still so much to do. Boys come home tomorrow - sigh.

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

Hurray! Corn's all planted. Now for pole beans, and I'll be done planting for a while. Wow, am I sore!

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

Wishing for a good night's sleep. Awake once an hour sucks. Wonder if it's the kidney failure? Itchy today, too - ate too much yesterday.

[Janice Griffin @makingalist]

Grad party picnic today, then planted 10 rows of corn. Tired, but it was a good day.
