The cool weather continues

by on October 20, 2008

It is truly amazing what a ten degree temperature drop can do for me. I start to think I could make corn on the cob and other yummy hot foods. I actually looked up turkey chili recipes last night. So as I relished in my sweater wearing self I also found myself jumping into a kind of productivity mode that I haven’t been in in ages. We are talking months here.

I was able to update the links on the IVP Webring. If you submitted your blog to the webring and never heard back let me know. If you write a blog about alternative reproduction then come join the webring.

And now I am trying to catch back up on some headers that I need to work on. I honestly had not felt creative in a while and oddly enough when GM’s recent health scares/issues surfaced I felt this deep need to go creative again. I have several headers in my “to-do” pile but I am making my way through them. Promise! If you submitted a header art request and haven’t heard from me by the end of the week let me know. If I completed a header for you recently your image should now be showing up in the gallery.

The other thing that I worked on this weekend was some behind the scenes stuff for our UTERUS fundraiser. We are doing so well ya’ll. I am so thrilled that our community is filled with such generous and benevolent people. A whole new crop of groovy stuff is now on the ebay site (including a chance to advertise on this site and VIP header art fun with me!).

On a side note my OB’s office is giving me some flack about requesting an RX for a preservative free flu vaccine. I wouldn’t think it would be an issue, but I am getting the, “Well this is the first we have ever had a request for this. We will have to check with all the OB’s on staff before we fill this.” What’s the deal? I just want a vaccine that is guaranteed to be mercury free and there are several available but you just need a prescription for them. Sheesh.

Just ask for the vaccine at Walgreens. They didn’t make me get a prescription for it at all. They are special ordering it for me too.

The weather is SO nice. I can’t even believe it. I went outside this morning to mail letters and didn’t burn the bottoms of my feet on the concrete.

I hope you are able to get the flu vaccine you wanted. I didn’t know they had different kinds and I work in health care.
I too always love when it starts to turn to fall and cool down etc.
