After almost 8 months of bureaucratic bullshit, I got my NYC birth certificate yesterday.

I actually ordered 3 when I sent in the final documents.

So there it is finally done. What an ordeal. I should write an ebook about how to get a certified birth certificate from NYC.

So, unfortunately ( i sincerely hope not) they didn’t return in the same envelope my certified marriage certificate. I’m not panicking yet because they didn’t mail the other in the envelope I provided, so I’m going to wait a few days and then try and email the corrections department.  Hopefully, it’s just in process on someone’s desk:(

Well, now I can dance in the streets, get a passport and get the real ID from California when I go to renew my license. Geez…..

Today is a doctor appt for B before he starts cycle 4 of Dacogen on Thursday.  If after this cycle, everything seems a- go I think he’ll start the transplant process which is a number of tests.  We haven’t heard about the brother’s donor match yet, but maybe she will know something.

We are in for more rain today thru Thursday but then it looks like we may be heading for ‘normal ‘ weather. Sunny, and in the ’60s.

I made IP polenta cacao de pepe, and wow it was superb. If you like polenta but not stirring for 40 minutes this is a deal breaker. It was creamy and just delicious.

Then I made tilapia with a parmesan crust and it was also delicious. Because I’m trying to eat fewer carbs, it’s a good recipe. I still drink wine so the carbs are still there, but hey, you got to do what you gotta do:) So this is not Keto, just fewer carbs like bread( my weakness) bagels, pasta, etc. I do love carbs, but I’m curious if I’ll notice a difference. We’ll see.
