Summer and fall update

So it has been a while since I have been on here and talking about my life here in Reno. Things are going okay right now. We are dealing with a health scare with Lucky so hopefully that will pass as something that is easily treatable and things will work out in the end. I am going to see the doctor next week about getting test for Celiac Disease, basically an allergy to gluten found in wheat. If it comes back positive, it will be both a good and bad thing. Good thing because then I can move forward in the process to get better. I have put on so much weight in the last 6-8 months and no matter what I did I just feel bloated and fat :( It will be a bad thing because I have a love-hate relationship with carbs - a huge source of the yucky gluten. Oh well, if this is what I am dealt with in life, I will do what I need to do to live a healthy life. I will look at is like my lactose intolerance, which I believe is an allergy to the lactose in dairy products. I know what I can have a limited amount of dairy and be okay so I will do the same with the gluten.

Fall is already here in the sense that school has started at the University. We have been really busy this first week and it seems we have made a lot of ground in the revenue that we were looking for. With the economy the way that it is, a lot of students have waited until the last minute to get their extra stuff purchased. I would do the same if I were them too! Why note wait until you have to absolutely buy the extras when you know you are going to charge it on a credit card and gain interest on it! Smart kids (kind of smart; most are still attached to the hip of their parents!).

It is really smokey today with the fires in Yosemite. I guess the National Park Service prescribed a controlled burn but it got out of control. That happens; you just can't judge what will happen or if a gust of wind will pick something up and start another fire. Fire is good for the parks and forests and are necessary to prevent major fires in the future. The earth was created in fire and smoke so this should not be something too new for the rest of the world to understand!

That's it for now from little ol' me. Until next time!
