Count down to stitch removal

Yes, I'm still alive. Been busy all weekend getting ready to say good bye to the boy and ending my SLAH month. (NOT to late to get your $75 free.....call or contact me ASAP as the order is going in tonight-Monday) In the morning I will be placing the first of my SALE orders.

Took the boy to the movies on Saturday night so we could have some quality time before he goes to his Dads for July. We are really going to miss the lad. I usually pretend he is "Out of state" and just call him instead of seeing him at all. I figure it's his time with his dad and I don't want to interfere. This month I may have to break that and take him to dinner a couple times. Not sure I can go an entire 30 days without seeing his adorable face.

Anyway......he selected "Get Smart" as our movie. OMG. NOT a good movie to go to if you are not supposed to smile, laugh, stretch your face. I laughed my face off. I will probably have a scar now and it will be Steve Carells fault. If you saw the original show you will see stuff they snuck in just for those fans. Even if you've never seen the show, I think you will enjoy it. My DS laughed till he cried a few times. A few things that little kids shouldn't hear but no nudity, well alittle piece of flesh but nothing frontal.

Went back to K-mart on Friday after my eye appointment and tried to shop with dilated eyes. FUN! They had the Clearance stuff....40% off. I got some stuff and told the check out girl that if it was smaller than ****** size to let me know cause I couldn't really see the little numbers well. LOL. I actually got a pair of Jeans for .90 and a sweatshirt/hoodie for .90. The jeans are to small but for 90 cents...I'll get in them one day!!

Speaking of my eye exam....the eye doctor mentioned I have a "Freckle" in my eye above my Optic Nerve. ???????????????? He said it is not in his notes from last year so he wants me back in 3 months to check on it. GOOD GRIEF!!! Am I gonna make it to 50????

Hope you had a super weekend. I got together with some of my Scrapyard gals on Friday night. Couldn't see to crop so just hung out for a little while. BIG MISTAKE. Did I mention I'm not supposed to laugh or smile? NO CAN DO around that gang! I've been really doomed with the not smiling or laughing. I do it a million times a day. I'll be glad when the restriction is lifted, officially! Not to mention I really miss Kissing my DH...

OK, enough about me, how are you all?? Jenna....are you feeling better? Test results back on Dyl???

Til later..................

The surgery went fine this morning. I have a nice "S" shape line of stitches. I have pictures from yesterday and today so be prepared for those soon. I came to work as I really couldn't afford another day out. Luckily my supervisor is off today so I'm taking it easy. Doctors orders.

Thanks for all your best wishes. I'll get on my SUN SCREEN soap box when I post the pictures. For today I wanted to let you know except for some serious swelling & discoloration which will probably look worse tomorrow, I'm OK.

I am going to post something cheerful on my next post so ...

Now we wait***Update

Sitting in the lobby after the first procedure waiting for the pathology report. They said it would be an hour or more so I'm trying to catch up on my emails and other stuff I missed while I was gone. Smart of me to bring the lap top don't cha think?

So many pictures to share from the trip. I'll try to get that done this afternoon depending on how long I'm at the doctors.

Til later..................

OK, sorry it took so long but I came home and went right to sleep for quite awhile. The results came back fairly quickly or I was just distracted with my laptop. I only had to go through the procedure once!! The doctor was very pleased. He showed me a picture of the "pathology report"...nice sight early in the morning. He said the cancer appeared to be very contained which is how he was able to get it all on the first try. I go back in the morning to be closed up. He said that procedure will be more involved since he will have to make more cuts to allow him to close up the "defect". He says it should heal well and will be in the crease I have when I smile. Guess I better smile alot!

Promise to post some pictures soon.

Til later...............take two

Back from Nashville and Busting at the seams

YEHAAAAAAAAAAAAA ya'll. I'm back. I have tons to share but only time for a quick post. So much you are going to want to hear if you love Southern Lving at Home products. OMG!!!! I will just tell you that if you do not book a party or check out our new catalog you will be so sorry. BEAAUTIFUL.

I don't want to get ahead of myself so I'll remind you that we are still in June and you have 6 days to place an order of $125 to get the $75 free plus one item at half price. There are some great items NOT INCLUDED in the new catalog and I'd hate for you to miss the opportunity to order something you've been wanting and then it would be to late.

Big day tomorrow. Trying not to freak out. Going to pick up the rest of my prescriptions tonight so I'll be all ready to be pain free and "HAPPY" .

Hope everyone had a super weekend. I haven't seen a TV or read a newspaper since Wednesday so not sure what I've missed. I was sad to hear about George Carlin this morning. Another one of the people from my "childhood"..gone. Darn I'm getting old!

Til later.................

Happy Birthday

There are several people celebrating Birthdays today but none is more important than my MOM. I'm out of town so I hope this posts when it is supposed to.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!!!! Hope you have a super day. See you when I get back.

Till later.................

15 minutes of Fame

I have something exciting to share. As many of you know, Saturday I was a vendor for one of the fundraisers for Lutz Guv'nr. One of the local (throw inthe yard) newspaper reporter/photographers was there taking pics of the croppers, trying to get someone from all the local areas. I mentioned that I was from *****. He said perfect, he could get all his papers covered at one event. He took my picture, my information & I gave him one of my business cards so he'd get the info right. I wasn't sure if anything would come of it but was hopeful. The paper was in the driveway last night when I got home. I picked it up to take inside, hoping I wouldn't be disappointed and noticed that MY PICTURE WAS ON THE FRONT PAGE!!!! Top left colum. My picture and a small paragraph telling about me and the event and listing my WEBSITE! If I don't get any response from that I don't know what to say. I couldn't afford that kind of advertising!

Til later............
