Update 2

Ok, so taking steriods isn't my favorite part of this whole thing (God, who would LOVE taking steriods?) because it makes you gain weight (though many people say I was far too skinny in the beginning, but still, people are noticing my cheeks look.......fuller)....and it's just an overall pain.
But starting next week on the 28th, I will go from taking 12 pills to 11 pills, and every week, I will decrease by one until in mid-August I will be done...yes....DONE with steriods!!!!
So this means A, my hunger should go down slowly, B, I can start losing the weight I gained easier, and C, less pills to take, period!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But otherwise I am good, and this month of May has been hectic. Thankfully I am starting to get back into riding at the farm down the road and doing chores, even though this weather is against me.......riding in the saddle or being around horses feels good, it makes me feel at home once again. I am no longer estranged from the world, but part of it. I know what's going on around me and I'm comfortable with it. Things are changing but not neccessary for the worst.
And on the bright side, I've been starting to take out 3 books from the library each week, read them all by the next week and take out 3 more! It gives me good reading material for homeschooling and entertains my mind at night!
More to come...
P.S. For anyone that's interested, on May 29th there will be a fundraiser at Southmowing Stables, 3275 Hinesburg Road, Guilford. From 1-4pm, pony rides for $2.00 and a bake sale will be held as well. Please, tell your friends and hopefully I will see you there! (I'm sort of organizing it) It's to support the Putney Homeschooling Group
