Pain Relief
This is the first morning I’ve woken up without pain from existing. I started taking low-dose naltrexone last week because my doctor received a call from someone looking to prescribe it to them for their fibromyalgia. Up to that point … Continue reading
Jurack Family Game Night
Saturday night, we had my husband’s side of the family over for our bi-monthly family game night. One of the games suggested by Kim has the lovely title of “Eat Poop You Cat” (a name no doubt inspired by results … Continue reading
Dental Issues
Back in January, at my 6-month dental cleaning, the x-rays showed I had a cavity. My first one ever. I went along with the suggestion to get it drilled and filled right away, and within two weeks I had some … Continue reading
Bye Bye Dagwood
We got Dagwood a year ago. He was previously owned by a crazy cat hoarder that lost her home. All the cats were put up for adoption and he was lucky enough to be adopted by couple in North Royalton. … Continue reading
(Modified) Lyrics to a TMBG song.
I’m older than I’ve ever been. And now I’m even older. And now I’m older still. Fedex attempted to deliver my birthday present today, but a signature was required and no one was home to receive it. My class let … Continue reading
The Something Store
Let me tell you something about the Something Store. Avid readers (*snerk*) may remember my previous post about the site. After reviewing my Google Checkout history, I’ve ordered 51 Somethings since November of last year. Wowzers! No wonder they were … Continue reading

Since I haven’t posted much since Jonas’s birth, and no art at all in that time, here’s a piece that I still actually like. It’s half-scribble, half detail because I just didn’t want to work on it more than one … Continue reading
Angels of Ice and Fire
Same images, different medium, different text. My breech baby (who has hair already, I’m told. Yay ultrasounds!) is facing the the wrong way in both ways. It’s like he’s hugging my spine. I had an extremely painful dream wherein my … Continue reading
Bad Everything Day
Hey guys, I got a doctor’s appointment right at 7:30 AM to get some more testing done to see if this baby is killing me or not (so far it’s not). Last night, eating dinner around 6:30, I suddenly and … Continue reading
Schroe Dot Org’s Florida Vacation
Jor and I were away for the past week (not that you’d have noticed with the normal amount of updates here). I’ve added a link to our Picasa photo gallery on the right hand side, with hundreds of pictures from … Continue reading
World of Warcraft
My husband and I wanted to start playing World of Warcraft again, starting tonight. Many people at my new place of employment play, and discussing it at work made me decide that it’s worth playing again. And, since we both … Continue reading
I drove alone today.
The real reason I finally got my driver’s license is because I’m starting a new job tomorrow (Dec 17) and my husband has to go out to California for a business trip. Even though the place I work at is … Continue reading
