Well, I went to the osteoporosis specialist today, and his preliminary diagnosis is that I have psoriatic arthritis (sore-ee-AA-tic). The more I read, the more I feel he is correct and the more thankful I am that I have a good general doctor who sent me there. He did a couple tests in the exam that give me some reassurance that the lower leg pain I am experiencing doesn't point to Amyloidosis. The arthritis stuff isn't fun or without its problems, but just about ANYTHING is better than Amyloidosis. Praise the Lord! I need to do more reading on the subject.
I looked at fridges today. I think we found one at a builders surplus store. They sell dent & scratch stuff, but since it's going in the basement, we don't really care that it has a dent. It is marked down about $400, and is a bit bigger than we had been looking at, so we think it's a really good deal.
Little Boy is totally enthralled with PlayDoh at the moment. He wakes up in the morning and asks (at 6:30 am!) to play with it. Grrr.
I need to go get something together for dinner. More later.

Must run in the family!!! That love affair with play dough! Ron got 3 new four packs of playdough this week. He needed green playdough for a totem pole project and so I bought 12 containers in all, to get enough green. Now when I get up, he's sitting at the table, making whatever it is he makes, some sort of critters, on the table. I let him, at least he's using his brain and creating, instead of sitting in front of cartoons or videogaming...
Okay, gotta go, keep cleaning... ugh.
Love,
Angela
