Vman's Body

Sounds like the Vman has all the right parts in the right places.  Can't wait to see his 30 year old body!!

Or did he mean he had another body in the back of his Blazer?? Ya just never know,,,I wonder which one will show up on Jeckyll?

Toys

Okay, listen up all you gals going to the Wreckyll in Jeckyll

If you don't bring your toys with you, you just might be out of luck! Alabama has just banned the distribution of them, joining Texas and GEORGIA...

Nobody warned me the south was getting prudish! I'm not sure I want to move back home anytime soon now!

And yes, I can hear all the gallant gents now trying to persuade us wimmen folks "Ya'll aint gonna need no toys while we're here!"  Huh, I say, Huh!  After a few cases of beer, us gals will be on our own, I tell ya!

Eavesdropping

Being in and out of the hospital has it's advantages. Overheard from a room across the hall:

A male patient is lying in bed in the hospital with an oxygen mask over his mouth anad nose, still heavily sedated from a four hour operation.  A young nurse comes in to sponge his hands and feet.

"Nurse," he mumbles groggily from behind the oxygen mask, "are my testicles black?"

Embarrassed, the young nurse replies, "I don't know, I'm only here to wash your hands and feel."

He struggles again to ask, "Please tell me, are my testicles black?"

Finally, she pulls back the covers, raises his gown, holds his privates and jiggles them around a bit, takes a close look and says, "There's nothing wrong with them!"

Part Time Work

Stuck at Home

My second favorite household chore is ironing.  My first being hitting my head on the top bunk bed until I faint.

I'd forgotten how being home all day felt like!

Thanks to everyone for all the well wishes and prayers I've received; those comments and emails are greatly appreciated. I'm beginning to feel like a human being once again. (Thanks to the legal drugs, anyway!!)

I have a few more surgeries scheduled in the next few weeks to remove the rest of the tumor; it was too big to get all at once.

Have no fear, though. By the time April rolls around and we get to Jeckyll, I will be ready to PARTY!! (or plan on it, anyway!).

Stress Management

Picture yourself near a stream...

Birds are chirping in the crisp cool mountain air...

Nothing can bother you here...

No one knows this secret place...

You are in total seclusion from that place called "The World"...

The soothing sound of a gentle waterfall fills the air with a cascade of
serenity...

The water is clear...

A couple of good links

I really wasn't aware that Acidman was posting items for sale on eBay.   I guess if anyone takes him up on cleaning his house, he'll have a lot more stuff to sell!

Want to browse some humorous photos? Warning, some may offend the faint of heart; I'm  not too worried, though, not too many of those type visit my blog!

Like father, like son!

Grandson #7; he so looks (and acts) like his father!

Chapter 3

Wow!! A grand-slam home run on Chapter 3!!!!

TJ did an excellent job; I agree with Christina, it must be something in the water up there in Jersey! *or is it water?*

Coffee Milk

I sit here this morning with my first cup of coffee for the day, enjoying the warm, sweet taste, the aroma drifting past my nose. I take a deep breath and remember days of sitting on my Grannie's knee, drinking 'coffee milk' with the grown-ups.

More milk than coffee, I thought I was important! I was sitting with with 'the big people'.  As a child I was often made to think I was important, even though they were small things like the 'coffee milk'.  I knew I was somebody!

I know I am still 'somebody' today.

A couple of weeks ago I made my annual visit to the OB/GYN where an ultrasound found an 'abnormality'. A few days later, a specialist found a tumor in my bladder, which turned out to be cancer.

Monday (Happpy Valentine Day, huh?) I had surgery to remove the tumor; it turned out it was too big to get all at one time, so I'll have to wait until next Monday to find out what the next step is.

To quote an email I received from someone who's been there, done that, "Just don't fear things you can't control.  Accept them and refuse to break."

So, that's what I'm doing! There's nothing I can do right now to control it, so I'll leave it in the expert's hands. Meanwhile, I'll continue to enjoy life AND look forward to the Wreckyll in Jeckyll!!!!
