Carpe Diem - Seize the Day

Let's start with something 'new'.  I have a new diagnosis to add to my list of ailments.  I have been fairly sure of this one for a while, but living in denial. 

Enter Sjögren's Syndrome . I am lucky that I only seem to be affected with the dry mouth.  So far, my eyes are good and I can still wear my contacts.  Thank you, God.

I am using a rinse and my rheumatologist will give me a prescription pill if I want it.  I am trying to avoid that.  I don't want to add another pill to my regimen.  The possible side effects worry me, too.  My mouth sores are improving, though.

Moving on to the 'old'.  I am annoyed.  Actually, I suppose it is more hurt than annoyed.  My husband, in spite of the fact that I have asked him, still has yet to read my journal.  That bothers me.  I even put the link on his toolbar.  I don't get it. 

He knows it hurts my feelings and still, in the 13 months that I have been journaling, no visits.

<sigh>  Oh well.  Whatever.

Be well,
Dawn

PS.  Fuzzy had a great camp out with the scouts and his ankle is just fine!

And, thanks to Cherry for a great tag!

  Dear Dawn's Husband,
    Stop being such a dick. I don't care that you're not all that interested in reading online journals. Just drop by and drop a comment once or twice a month. Easy brownie points, man.
  Love, Paul
