    Good morning, Loungettes!  Lovely breezing and mostly sunny day here, getting dried off finally, hoping to get some yard work done this afternoon. 

    ORLA--OUCH!!!!!!!! Your poor girl!  Stay caught up with those pain pills! 

    Juliet--I feel really good about the good eval, and I just couldn't help bragging about it  just a little!  The company pays for CPR, too, and arranges it, so it wasn't so bad.  I like the way the lady did it--review, practice, she signed us off during practice so there was never a "testing" session, which I really hate!  After all these years of taking CPR you'd think it would be second nature,  but they ALWAYS change something, it seems.  Oh, well, such is life.

    OK, I like to read, and I like to look at nice, naked male bodies, but I'm not really sure I like doing both at the same time! 

    OOOOOHHHHHH, me LIKES the stuff under the cowboy hat!!!!!

    Becs--Isn't it crazy what they make us go through just to work?    Make sure we're CPR certified when our most valuable work is PREVENTING things from getting that far!

    DorKable--good to hear from you again!  How's your Dad making out?  And how's your likker supply holding out? 

    Princess Glitter Sizzle's DOTD is the I Remember

    3/4 cup white sugar

    1 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves

    3 1/2 cups peach nectar

    1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

    1 (750 milliliter) bottle white wine such as Pinot Grigio

    In a saucepan, combine the sugar, basil leaves, half of the peach nectar and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer, crushing the basil leaves with the back of a spoon to release their flavor. Simmer just long enough to melt the sugar, then remove from the heat and allow to cool.

    Strain the basil mixture into a pitcher filled with ice cubes. Pour in wine and remaining peach nectar. Stir briefly and serve.

    Lara, Hope our nurses comment on that soon! All I am aware of, is not having aspirin type products or anything that may thin your blood, from at least 7 or 10 days before surgery. Can you also call your pharmacy and ask them if your pain meds are blood thinners? Prolly not, but might give you peace of mind if you know for sure. They also should know if its ok to keep taking them before surgery. GLAD you went to the ER!

    Gawgeous day here, foah shuah! Been inside though, working on our trip. Have a toilet leak (same place that leaked when it ruined all our wood floor on other side of bathroom before we noticed, and right before leaving the country!). Sheesh.....wish it would STAY fixed...this time Dh will try before calling plumber, since it was the 1st 2 plumbers that messed it up.

    Love all the pics, and sentiments for Memorial Day. Great dwink too, NM! And yeah, like everyone said, we KNEW you would get an excellent eval! Duh.....you are GREAT at your job, and SO GLAD that this company realizes it!!! You can pat yourself on the back, for sure!!!!

    Hmmmm....what to drink today that is red white and blue? Maybe besides NM remembrance dwink, we might have some Blue Hawaii's with maybe a strawberry and white straw???? :LOL. Dwink up loungettes!!!!

    Huggers! Kat

    yes lara keep taking them until you don;t need them,  they will ask you what you have taken when they eval you for anesthesia,the only pills to avoid are the nsaids-advil,motrin,aleve,asprin and some herbal supplemants because they" thin" your blood!usually they say none 5-7 days before surgery,     good mrning dorty,hows the family doing?   nm keep bragging you earned itLaughing

    ORLA--YES, you can take pain pills with the antibiotics and you can take them right up to the time of surgery  A good dose of pain med BEFORE surgery helps manage pain after surgery!  They won't cancer surgery because you are on pain pills.  Antibiotics are OK, too.  Likker, however, you might want to cut back on. The stuff you need to be off is the stuff that affects clotting.  Aspirin permanently alters platelets and needs to be stopped at least 2 weeks before surgery.  Coumadin and other blood thinners work differently and can be taken up to a few hours before surgery, if necessary.  Some herbal remedies also affect blood clotting, ginsing is one, if memory serves me.    Antibiotics are often given just before surgery to cut down the risk of infection taking hold, those are not a problem.  And pain meds are given just before surgery as pre-medications, too, so again, not a problem. 

    Preparation:

    This is a layered shot so each ingredient is poured on top of the previous.
    1. Pour the grenadine into a shot glass.
    2. Float the peach schnapps on top of the grenadine.
    3. Float the blue curaçao on top of the peach schnapps.

     i will chime in,usually we hold coumadin and switch them to lovenox or heparin as they have shorter half lives of  a couple of hours than coumadin which can effect the inr  up to 48 hrs or more after a dose.        likker wise 72 hrs seems to be the common hold time, pain meds are given right up to surgery,   st johns wort is another herb  they like you to hold

    Shannon nice to see any post from u--especially drinks--lookin' good.

    Stella she actully thinks Dork might not read this--she's so funny.

    NM U could not get anything les than wonderful on u'r eval--u work so hard and u love u'r work.

    Lara U sound so very concerned about u'r pain meds--I know u know that Julie and NM are right, but u'r just nerveous right now so u wsnt to make sure--but they are so right, I just know no blood thinners actually--that ll they care about cuz of bleeding I assume. Since the pin fell out is it still draining, was the pin supposed to fall out? Did they tell u? I was just thinking when they have emergency operations which I'm sure most of us have had along the way--whatever we took we took already but they had to operate and it was all right. Iknow I think of the stupid things that happen. But it's true.

    Hi Cammi,how you doing?   Hi Cyn,doing better. How's things in Florida?   JULIET-The healing is going alright. Just a little complication,having an allergic reaction to the surgical glue. I keep breaking out in tiny blisters and itching like crazy. They removed the glue but there are pieces still stuck to me so I have to somehow remove them. How are you doing w/your health issues?   KAT-I've been so busy,dad fell and fractured pelvis last month,then running to docs for DH and me. He got bronchitis and I've been going back/forth for the allergy. And now I caught DH's cold so hitting the Airborne/chicken soup. I do like the implants,they're big like I wanted but lefty's off center a bit and righty is still quite a bit larger. A little bird told me you've been traveling,anywhere exciting? Glad everyone enjoyed the drinks but I think I forgot something.

    Oh Lara, wish you could have a drink to relax....keep taking your meds though! Praying for GOOD RESULTS both cultures, and that they tell you soonliest! Thats so hard with a 3 day weekend, cuz you can't reach them cuz of the holiday, then they will be swamped today, so am hoping they do get to call you.

    Shannon, Hope your dad is healing well....how scary! AND that you get well too. As far as the glue, now that you know you're allergic, I hope you put it in your records, so they won't use it again. Mine used stitches. When my mom gashed her arm wide open in HI last summer when I was there to move them here, we went to the ER and they glued it shut. When we saw her dr, he said they should have stitched it....left a scar, but he seemed to think they do it as its easier. BUT that was just his opinion, and he may be "old school", so I don't know which way is better. Yuppers, we go to Paris and Prague this week...looking forward to Prague very much, but not so much to Paris, but hope I am pleasantly surprised with Paris. Taking my parents (96, and 92), so we won't get to walk as much or discover as much, plus I worry about all the pickpockets in Paris. They closed the Louvre last month because of the pickpockets...not sure if it was just for 1 day, or if it was longer. (Just found an article, scary that its gangs of children... http://money.msn.com/now/post.aspx?post=bd7b5fb0-66c5-481a-89c8-bb9b7b835413 . Another good link, on how to thwart pickpockets, Cyndie you might want to read this too, before your trip: http://www.usatoday.com/story/dispatches/2013/04/12/pickpockets-tourists-louvre/2077173/ .

     Thanks For the FOOD!!! So purty!!!
