It's our favorite time of year.....

It is almost here -our trip to Bar Harbor, Maine. This Thursday night we leave for 10 days away to the "downeast" coast of Maine. This is the first year that we are renting a cabin and staying a full week and not just doing a long weekend. Maine quickly became one of our favorite destinations when we were on our first trip out there five years ago (we rode the motorcycle out there in 2004)- we vowed then and there that we would make it our tradition to visit there every year. It's our special place. It is so beautiful and peaceful....and the Lobsta' - is oh so good.

Mmmm Yummy

On Saturday night I treated my husband to a wonderful dinner at Mancy's steakhouse in Toledo. (well in the end I really just made the reservation and he paid!) To say the least we were stuffed when we left. The meal was wonderful. We decided to forego the whole anniversary gift thing - since really there is nothing that either one of us is in need of other than the company of the other! aww so romantic.. So yeah this Tuesday (June 9) we will be celebrating our eight years of marriage. Let's hope this year is a little more laid back than the last year!

Your Brain is Normal.....

...and I have medical proof. I went back to the neurologist on Monday for my followup appointment and she was very happy to tell me that my brain is normal. I asked if I could get that in writing to show the skeptics! She did say however - there is no medical explanation to why all of a sudden on Good Friday I was experiencing these horrible pains in my head. It could be a fluke, a one time thing or they may come back - its really hard to say. The medication that I am on is very effective in treating it - so its not like we are at a loss for what to do if it should happen again. She does have me on a regimine to slowy wean off the medication to see what happens. I had already started decreasing my dosage before I saw her and so far so good. I pray it stays that way.
