3 Types of Cheese Purchased at The Cheese Chalet

1 Really Bad Pain Day

Lician, Brian, and I went to Ehelnbach’s Cheese Chalet today and it was amazing! I mean, I was absolutely not fond of the ‘cheese fudge’. Cheese and milk chocolate is not a flavor combination that I enjoy. But! We did get an amazing applewood smoked butterkase cheese, a habanero jack cheese, and another that I can’t remember right now.

53 Minutes Spent Getting My Infusion

2 Classes to Juggle This 5-Week Semester

1 Ongoing Headache

I’m exhausted, in pain, and feel like I’m a walking bruise.

I really hope the infusion helps. The saline bag they gave me was cold. It hurt. The entire time. And yes, I said something about it three times.

I’m going to relax, try to rest.

Take your meds, folks.

1 Clingy Kitty Boy

Spock is super clingy tonight. I’m not feeling super great; just another headache and general fatigue issue. I can’t wait for Friday’s appointment with the hematologist, even if I’m nervous. Despite my tattoos, I’m not fantastic with needles being used to inject stuff into me.
