GOOD NEWS....NO MORE SWEATING THIS ONE.....

Well, our doctor was true to his word, and the rush he put on the biopsy was processed quickly. He called yesterday afternoon - ALL GOOD NEWS. No signs of any cancer cells whatsoever. He was a little upset that the PA, mentioned in prior blog - took it upon herself to put the scare into us - without consulting the gynecologist that employs her - first.

Thedaughter tried to "hijack" my blog to put her own post (of thanks) here - but mwahahahaha - finally a password she couldn't figure out. But the following is what she e-mailed me from her room upstairs - to post.

I would like to say thank you to all of themom's followers and friends here on her blog. We had a rough week with my medical scare and you all have been there for her sending your thoughts and prayers. Where we live people really aren't that kind. Most people here are very cold hearted. You ALL have kept her as well as myself in good spirits through this and many other troubling times and for that I am deeply grateful. For all of you who are faithful here, all medical results came back today with no signs of cancer cells or traits of any kind. I am in the clear. Thanks to everyone again.

Thedaughter left this as a "comment" on a previous post, but I wanted it here, so all could see her appreciation (mine too)!

*********************

Today, is going to be a "catch up on ALL the laundry" day, in order to have everything ready to leave for vacation on Monday. I have to drag myself downstairs and change the kitty litter too - now that is something I REALLY look forward too. Damn, I wish that fat cat would learn to use the toilet. I should have trained her when she was young - but being a mean 12 year old psychotic feline - I foresee no change to her habits at this stage.

My neighbor is going to water my flowers while we are gone, the other neighbors have agreed to "watch" the house. It also helps to have the police chief living two doors away, for nothing other than watching my house. (He's nuts!)

Thegrandson is so excited, he has wanted to pack his little suitcase everyday. Tonight, we will let him get most of his stuff ready. We have a laundry basket packed with beach/kitchen stuff and essentially the remaining packable are mostly clothes. I hope I don't forget the camera.

I had to order a lumbar support (cushion) for the car, as my back does not do well with these seats. After an eight hour drive - I would prefer limited pain. I just want to relax in the sun for four days and hopefully watch thegrandson totally enjoy his first visit to the beach. We will be returning home on Saturday (the 13th). Brief, but hopefully restful.

There is a community (Bellaire) festival going on downtown. In years past, this was a fun time for several days. Local singers, bingo in the evenings, rides for the children and all kinds of food stands. Thegrandson has been begging to go, but I can't get him to understand - the powers that be (idiots who planned the event), have made this a boring, not worth the trip festival. There are NO rides for children, actually nothing for them at all. One food stand selling some kind of port - I see a case or two of trichinosis coming on - no bingo for those who love the game. It is more or less for people to look at the new sidewalks, the open space from where 22 sycamores were removed, and glad hand with the local mayor and his fukktard girlfriend - our village administrator. (Who, I might add has been stealing her $48K annual pay - by doing absolutely NOTHING!) The good news is I believe she will be out of a job the end of the year - fingers crossed.

I have so much to do today - and then a Walmart run to get watch batteries. I gave thegrandson a Mickey Mouse watch of mine, and he has been begging to wear it - but that is not happening till I change the battery. (Having worked in jewelry for so many ears - I can change any battery in my sleep.) He learned to tell analog time (or is still finessing the art), so his own watch will aid as a teaching tool.

Have to run and start the chores. Have a great day, and echoing my daughter's thanks - THANKS FOR ALL THE WELL WISHES!!

Later...............

I THINK I'M WORN OUT...

Things have been accomplished today, but nothing of great consequence. I think I am totally worn out. My ass is literally dragging.

Between all the cleaning and rearranging furniture, parenting duties for thegrandson, baseball practices and games...I now know why this was all so much easier when I was YOUNGER.

The rest of the required baseball gear was purchased after having to go to several different sports stores. There is no reason I guess, why this should be an easy task! By the time we returned home from that escapade, thedaughter had to go to work, so I laid down and my body was honestly craving a nap...I rested, but no sleep was had. This may all be caused by the sudden HOT temperatures of today. We went from a 60* day yesterday to 88 degrees by late afternoon. It is now 10 pm and still 75*. This is what I consider "unreasonable temperatures" this early in Spring. No doubt we will be inundated with thunderstorms soon.

I have made my rounds of all your blogs, but have not made any comments today - I'm sorry. I promise to be back in the swing (with any luck) of things tomorrow. I have nothing planned - NOTHING at all. Well, I may have to start on some laundry and get a few things taken to the basement - but I will try to get back to your sites tomorrow and comment.

Have a good one - I am going to try and get thegrandson to snuggle a little, before his mom gets home from work at 11:30pm.

I will return....later.......

I "don't give a shit" day....

Yesterday was a crazy day for sure...and I was hoping to just kick back and relax a little last night. That didn't happen, as I was still receiving phone calls at 10:20 pm, either asking questions or wanting to set up appointments. I guess that is just one of the downfalls of working out of my home - I can live with that.

I did manage to listen to Pres. Obama's speech though, and was so delighted to actually listen to an articulate, intelligent president for a change. And while taking questions from the media - he is quick on his feet and has adequate answers on the tip of his tongue. This is such a lovely contrast to the past eight years of moronic, ignorant, stupid speeches of Dubya. A breath of fresh air if you will. I also have to note that Obama definitely had no clue that his Presidency would begin as it has (recession, financial debacle), when he began his campaign. He has assuredly taken to the task with great zeal so far. I am impressed.

Since yesterday was so chaotic, I am not working on any returns today, just accepting the drop-offs. I vacuumed early, started the laundry, broke down all the cardboard boxes that have amassed on the back deck, to be recycled, and I'm going to mop the kitchen soon (grrrr.....). Mopping is so NOT my favorite sport. The poor dog doesn't know where to go and hide - she hates the vacuum and runs like mad, the cleaning supplies I use (not strong) don't make her happy either. I do believe I may let her stay on the back deck for awhile. **She won't go off the deck because of the rain and she is such a priss!



I have procrastinated long enough, a nap is now out of the question. Curses!! Still a lot to do before thegrandson arrives home from school and the homework task is begun.

Maybe I will return.....later..............So everyone have a great day.
