We finally got some rain today. We've only had .10" of rain this year so these little showers are just wonderful. The desert smells so good after a rain.
I've started taking Methotrexate again. It's a chemo drug and it has made me soooooooo exhausted. Luckily, I'm not nauseous. It's supposed to help control inflammation from Lupus. I've been having lots of Lupus flares with vasculitis, fluid in my right knee and thickening of all my joints as well as a rash. Of course, pain is still my constant companion despite tons of pain meds.
I have so many things I'm looking forward to. My daughter and I are going to Santa Fe in Aug. for a get-away for just the 2 of us. I'm taking my mother-in-law to Albuquerque the first week of Aug then up to Espanola to see her grandson. the big CaboWabo football dance is Aug. 8 so I'm dieting again. I'd like to be down to 200 pounds by then.....a loss of 19 pounds. That's do-able isn't it?
