3 THINGS FOR MONDAY!!!

Hey Nic!!

I assume you're having the procedure done by Dr. C?  I had the same procedure done several months ago by her predecessor, Dr. Marek, and while I'm not anxious to do it again, it WAS necessary and everything turned out okay.  I'm sure it will for you, too, but please don't hesitate to call me if you need anything.  Did they tell you to take some Tylenol about 40 minutes before?  If not.....DO IT!!!! 

Glad things seem to be on the upswing for you!!

Hugs!  Make sure you let me know how everything goes on Wednesday.

1 - For a relatively quiet weekend.  The rain did not really affect me on Saturday. I was out and about and got some things done. Sunday was relaxing and I took a nice long walk around the neighborhood. I also managed to work on my sleep deficit. I am feeling much more relaxed. Hopefully it will last.

2 - New clothes - This may not necessarily be a good thing - LOL! But, I fear I will never get tired of it! I was supposed to be shopping for some upcoming birthdays and wound up shopping for me. After all, I had a serious coupon that I had to use before it expires this month. The sizing is so weird. Depending on the cut, and the brand, I run across 3 different sizes! I also found a top in Macy's. This is the first time I have ever bought clothes for myself in Macy's. It is so nice to have so many options.

3 - My plants are still alive - A couple of weeks ago, Ms. "brown thumb" here, decided to add some house plants. I picked out several that I hope are hearty and do not require a lot of care. So far, I have managed to remember to water them. In fact they are looking pretty good, if I do say so myself. This may not sound like much to you all, but if you knew my "plant history", you would know this is a major accomplishment for me! Time will truly tell the tale.

P.S. I was thinking about Darla and Kathy and found a web site with news on the cruise ships. Many of them, including the one that I think they are on, have reversed the itinerary in order to avoid the bad weather. Hopefully, this will do the trick!

Hey Deb!!!!

Miss seeing you!!!  I guess by the time Darla and Kathy get back, it'll be time to get together to look at their pics!!!  I hope their itinerary isn't changed too much!

I LOVE to go shopping.  But if I'm shopping for clothes for myself, I prefer to do it by myself.  Now, my Mom, on the other hand, she likes me to go with her so she can model the clothes!!1  LOL!!!

Right there with ya on killing plants.  Hmmm.....maybe there's a good reason I DON'T have kids!!!  LOL!!

Hugs,

I am grateful for the following.

1.  Pain meds.  I have a kidney stone and the pain sucks the life out of me.  I will probably have lithotripsy later this week.  Just waiting for the surgeons office to call. 

2.  I will be missing the JACHO visit!!  I hate the stress.

3.  My house is clean (including beds being stripped) courtesy of my husband.

oh hon!!!!!  I'm sorry you have a kidney stone :(  they are THE WORST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  All you wanna do is crawl in bed and never urinate ever again!  LOL  I hope the lithotripsy works good for you!!!!  HUGS!

Thanks Aaron.

Just being lazy around the house right now.  Trying to not let the bloody pee get to me too much.  I know TMI but man it sucks.

Awwww, Kim!!!  I'm so sorry about the kidney stone.  Poor Mo is the queen of kidney stones, and I know those lithotripsies usually help her.  Hope it does you!!!

Hugs,

Tia

P.S.  Could you swipe some of your hubby's DNA and send it to me?  We need to clone him!!  He's DA BOMB!!!  LOL!!!

If Mo is the queen I will settle for princess.  I had my first kidney stone at the age of 10.  Back then I had surgery with a HUGE scar.  Well ok its about 8" long but looks massive compared to my little lap sites.  I usually have a kidney stone or 2 every 2 years or so.  Last time I was in misery for a while before I finally broke down and went to the ED.  I sat in the chairs sweating and puking for about 3 hours before they triaged me.  When they finally called me they asked me to leave a urine sample.  I peed them a cup of  blood and a pearl sized stone.  I felt much better afterwards.  The nurse said "we need to get you into a bed"  WHAT???  I was feeling better and ready to go home.  Then Dr. was funny though.  He walked in the room and said "Congrats, you delivered the 2nd biggest kidney stone I have ever seen anyone pass."

As for my hubby, he really is awesome.  To think on our first date I told him he was not my type.  At the end of that date, he asked me out again.  I love him and his baldheaded goodness!!

Hey Kim, if your hubby has a single brother tell Tia, she loves the baldy boys! LOL  I hope your stone is taken care of quickly!!! (((HUGS)))

Indeed I do!!!  I picked right up on that baldheaded goodness, but thanks for looking out for me as always, Heather!!!!
