I'm not making this stuff up


The plumber pulled the kitchen apart to find the cause of the problem

I've been unwell for the last few weeks with a mystery illness.  I've had test after test, the medical clinic has been my second home, I keep expecting them all to call out 'JODIE!' (a la Cheers), when I walk through the door.  Today, we discovered what has been making me so ill. A gas leak in our home.  Yep, gas poisoning.  Believe me, I'm still trying to register that in my head.

I'm looking forward to my brain functioning properly again and I'll write something more detailed when I'm well.  Right now, I just want to work on getting my health back...and my sanity.

I do have wristlets made and some are photographed, hopefully I can add some to my shop later this week but at the moment, it's too big a task for me to handle.  I've been dealing with weeks of dizziness, nausea, disorientation, loss of memory, difficulty engaging in conversation, blurred vision, fatigue and the list goes on. Tomorrow I'm going to the hospital to have tests done, something I am not looking forward to at all.

At least we know what was causing the problem, I'm just going to focus on getting my health back and will hopefully have an illness-free 2013.

  5. Ha! That methane refinery has got to have some funky scent alright. I will write more (soon!) about what I experienced now that I'm not living in a brain fog.
