Catching Up

For the last few months, I have been extremely tired a lot of the time. Sometimes when I am driving Michael to work in the morning, I actually feel like I am going to fall asleep at the wheel. I have also noticed that I have been losing a lot of hair, and it has been getting worse as time goes on. I talked to my doctor, and she did a bunch of bloodwork and discovered that my ferritin is very low. So now I am on an iron supplement and am hoping that things will get better soon.

I was also under the weather for a couple of days following a vaccination. Usually, they don’t bother me, but this time I felt pretty crappy for a couple of days. I am glad that seems to have passed.

I have been doing a lot of puzzles, so I will be doing a bit of catch-up posting for those. I really haven’t been reading much lately, though. I did finish one book, Great Big Beautiful Life by Emily Henry. It was an enjoyable romance with complex characters and a good story line.

One of the puzzles I did was an adorable personal-size puzzle from Boardwalk called Happy Llama-ween. It is 210 pieces, and the artist is Andy C Ellis.

Handing out candy is one of my son’s favorite things to do each year. Since we don’t get any kids coming around to our apartment, he goes to his dad’s house where they get so many kids that a lot of people sit outside for the two hours. Here’s a pic of him from a few years ago:

Oh, and I also had an exciting thing happen – I won a giveaway on Instagram and got three puzzles from a brand called The Paperhood. They are all holiday/winter scenes from Canada, and I am really looking forward to them!
