    NM, your advice for Dork is awesome!!! Also, we don't have a true belly button after DIEP, right? It's fashioned by PS so would what she read even be applicable? You survived unzipping. I survived diffuse peritonitis after ruptured appendix. You will survive this Dorky! We won't have it any other way.



    UFO forgot me last night btw!



    Annie is fine with me now. Why is she doing the crying thing???! I don't get it. The other Gma makes big deals out of it. Probably thinks I lock her in closet or something.



    Cami, you are simply the best and I love ya! You are the cheering section, the rah rah goil in dis place. I hear cheerleaders get a lot of action too!



    Lara, you crunk? Twerkin like Miley. Careful of that guy last night, he had something white dripping down his chest....ewe!



    Speaking of ewe....I went in to try to talk a patient into being evaluated because he kept refusing. He told me I am "stunning" and then I noticed a pup tent being erected under his sheet. EWEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!



    Hugs n chest bumps. BBL

    OMG Dork be very careful and I hope u can check back in.

    Chit I've been mostly napping today, I'm so much fun. I could be a party planner.

    Lara keep us up on u'r moms recovery, is it day surgery or not?

    Dork now listen to NM she is so smart and knows all this stuff. And don't forget everything dated, but for now just take care of u'rself and heal, u don't need to use u'r brain yet, let that rest too.

    Becs see I'm glad u have Annie I knew it would be all right. hahaha I like the homemade tent the guy had.No matter what u can get them going.

    Wow Goldie is gone  long time--I didn't know she'd be gone this long. Hope she's having fun.

    And Kat we haven't heard from which is not like her. She's probably got lots to do with her family now. She's always running around helping someone.

    OK it's time to start drinking for most of us, especially after what Julie posted.

    Bernie, tinking about you and hope all is going well. When does DH come home? 

    NM, great great suggestions. I do have a question for my HtL nurses, wow we have three! The area around my nasty wounds was bright red but has turned purple. From what I read, that means healing, do I have this correct? I reread your tips and words of wisdome ~big sigh~ I do feel better about things after that, thank you thank you thank you. As for my boobs, dumbASS me pulled off a dressing on thursday that had that bebriding ointment. It was jest a small aread or nectrotic tissue. Well stupid me put rolled gauze on it and when I gently pulled it off, zipped open most of the scar. I jest can't win. I will get this all down to a science once I am nearly healed. I am not a good nurse or doctor, nope surrendered mese licenses. 

    Lori and Kathy are detained. Lori was on a trip and just getting home todey. She bese good. the dearheart send me a message after I sent her one to tail her I got her prize in de mail. Kathy is good, it top secret crassiflied 411. She in witness portection hehe, jk. but she is fine. I hope de goils don't mind me being dere spokes poyson.

    Dork it's just good to hear from you and honestly I didn't think about sending a card, well I don't have u'r address but I never send cards anymore to anyone. I don't know why--I stopped after my mom died--cuz she would always remind me to send a card to whoever needed one and all the onfor died with her--so I just stopped sending them---I so sowwry don't mean to be rude, but my mommy made me do it, now I don't at all. But my prayers are always with u now cuz u really need them.

    Secrets from Women. Untold to Men Until Now.

    Never do housework. No man ever made love to a woman because the house was spotless.

    Remember, you are known by the idiot you accompany.

    Don't imagine you can change a man - unless he's in diapers.

    What do you do if your boyfriend walks out? You shut the door.

    If they can put a man on the moon - they should be able to put them all there.

    Tell him you're not his type - you have a pulse.

    Never let your man's mind wander - its too little to be left out alone.

    Go for younger men. You might as well - they never mature anyway.

    Never marry a man for money. You'll have to earn every penny.

    Definition of a bachelor: A man who has missed the opportunity to make some woman miserable.

    The best way to get a man to do something is to suggest he is too old for it.

    If he asks what sort of books you're interested in, tell him check books.

    A man's idea of serious commitment is usually, "Oh all right, I'll stay the night".

    Women sleep with men who, if they were women, they wouldn't even have bothered to have lunch with.

    Remember a sense of humor does not mean that you tell him jokes, it means you laugh at his.

    If he asks you if you if you're faking it tell him no, you're just practicing.

    When he asks you if he's your first tell him, "You may be, you look familiar."

    haha Juliet, funny. so right that we can't change a man unless he is in diapers, all of them are funnnneee.

    I crashed out on the recliner for 6 hours and getting ready to go to bed. Had to first take a pain pill cause these bullet holes hurt. I am feeling better mentally, thanks to all of you. You are all jest awesome support to me. 

    It has been so beautiful here, had a little rain tonight but needed, it has been awhile. we have a string on sunny days coming up but cool. We are going down in the 40's sunday night, time to put the heater on. I know this is mild to NM lol. I do love the crisp sunny days of pre-fall. I gonna have to get my pool closed. Love to keep open until late october but the leaves will be too much for me to handle this year. I get so down when de pool cover goes on. Nothing more i love to relax is sitting by the pool day and night, it is de next best ting to having a shore house. 

    Nurses, please let me know if the purple I see around me wounds/craters is healthy healing or a problem. It is dark purple like a bruise. I am tinking it is a good ting. Not a day goes by that I do not feel that I beling in a hospital but geeze, been in one half of the past month and like it at home better. I do what I Need to do though. 

    Camille, Juliet, Bernie, any late night goils partaying with me? I want a dwink soooo bad. Maybe when I am done mese anti-b's I will risk it. But jest hard to stop at one for dis alcamaholic! 

    Where is my goil Chrissy B? AIn't seen here here. I have seen her elsewhere, like in ebery other cyber bar out dere, hope she come in for a bisit and a huggle! 

    ok, gonna play a widdle of my vegas game and go back to mese big bed. ahhhhh.

    cheers goils, until tomorree. oops, dis IS tomorree. It 3:48 aye em here. I go now. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    Julie I really enjoyed u'r ode to mankind. funny.

    And Karen how u do it, I'll never know now another Holiday is coming--more cooking and baking??? OOOHHH

    Dork it doesn't matter what hrs u sleep now or rest as long as u do so let u'r body guide u'r hrs. and I think purple is good too , but let the girls answer those questions cuz I just like the color purple so I have no clue.

    Joey came home last nite with a black eye from playing football and he's so proud of it. The kid can't even throw a ball. but match an outfit he's right on top of that. I couldn't wait for them to come home last nite--the dog misses them so much he cries 1/2 the time and comes by me and my Katie-Kat (altho nice now) gives him a look he's afraid of. The fiirst couple of hrs. it's fine then it's like I'm taking care of 2 kids and that's not for me.Then I didn't feel well, I had D and pain and my shoulders felt like I couldn't lift my arms and some dizzyness so I thought either I'm having an anxiety attack or a heart attack --so I took a vote and deciided it was probavly some anxiety cuz my pain was pretty intense.  I don't know if pain does that for everyone, it just sucks u thinking out of u and makes u shakey--Dork is that whatn happens, Lara==anyone???Usually I do nothing when I don't ffeel well but I cn't believe how much our dog goes ballistic when everyone is gone--I'm not enough so I have to give him my energy and I'm not used to that. LOL

    Good Morning, Loungettes!

    I`m doing this stem,s post on my kindle, just realized I can do this. Hmm, the incorrect is having trouble with some of my jargon. Not as easy as on the desk computer but I don,t have to get out of my easy chair.



    Dorky, yes the red calming down to purple is a good sign. Yes, keep notes of every thing that is happening. Write down all the calls you,'ve made to the PS.



    DIEP bellybuttons are done by cutting around the natural one, then a hole is cut in the skin being stretched over the belly and the belly button brought up through and sewed in place.



    Love the drunken dinosaur!



    OK got to head in and do some ketchup work, back for more later.

    Yes, pain can make you feel very anxious, shaky, and very, very bad in general. I have found that my Xanax is just as helpful as a pain pill sometimes. Anxiety also makes pain worse, and sets up a spiral that can be very scary.



    OK, now I,m really going to work fora while!

    Cami....how old is Joey?  He's your grandson correct?  does he live with you?  I can't remember from when you first started to post about him.....DS's dog is a whiner and crier!!!  makes me crazy...especially when he wakes us up at 5 am!!!  sorry you are having so much pain....

    NM...I have a kindle fire, but don't use it often, but have posted here when I do use it...mostly when I travel.....

    DorK.....the nurses are giving you good advice....

    Its quiet here this morning....I forget where Kathy is...I know Lori is on her celebration trip.....who else is missing?

    4 Have enough to drink so it won't be dilusional to u. I see u'r at our lounge today. We have a friendy lounge and have some fun here with wonderful women, u'll see.

    Karen Joey is 9 and he lived with me the first year he was born--My DD was very sick---so we've always been close and now we all live together, so our closemess continues everyday and we're both cuddlers so I love it. And it's funny but they went to  party and my SIL's cousin and her husband started arguing and he started to cry and told his mom he had to leave the room., cuz there is no arguing here--they've been married 15 years and really don't argue at all they like each other so much still and Joey gets the blessings of a happy homelife.  So he's a happy kid and I get blessings from him--which believe me helps me so much--he waits on me all the time and helps me walk and he just makes me happy.

    To smalzty huh but u know when I talk about him (he's the only one I have or ever will) I get all blubbery.

    OK now I need a drink, I'll have a morning one--Bloody Mary and I love stirring it with the piece of celery-it makes it fun before u even drink it.--Oh pants got it ready for me already. See just snap my fingers and he's here--I'm using him today Dork, u can't drink yet. But I hope soon.

    Lara I have the SyFy channel on so far today.

    Cami, worried about you. Are you better this ayem? When it comes to heart attack, you don't want to mess around. Julie!!!!!! You are needed in cardiac sekshun!!!! Beaty in through nose take a dwinkie poo and exhale out through your mouth, pop Ativan and repeat as necessary.



    Hear tendahs are giving massages by da pewl today. I think we all need one!



    Dorty, you feel you are in over your head? They send people home all the time to be nurses and doktuhs. They unzipped my Pop's infected tummy incision and sent him home for my half blind mom to do his wound care! Holy chit. She was stuffin the gauze in there. She had a blast. Missed her calling I guess. When do you have follow up visit? Hopefully not Dr. Dickhead!



    Bbl. Had great time with Annie. Thank God cuz I wuz so sad.

    Dork I hope u'r doing better today, is u'r dad still staying with u? Don't forget pictures, journal and as soon as u can drinks.

    4--years ago they used to say if it weren't for divorce they'd have no waitresses===and I was one and a bartender, but I don't remember a damn thing for dribking. Plu they didn't have all these craxy types of liquor then Vodka was just vodka--no ither taste --of course that was my fav. drink.

    I just got done writing to the Gov again, did they really think I was going to stop--I don't think so. I was very polite and mentioned no names just the things they did LOL--no threats as usual AND I had spell check on so all is in order and I didn't write like a 4 yr.old I even used big words hehehe-Gee I hope they understand me now.

    Lara I'm watching Witchslayer Gretl??? Never heard of it and I'm sure I'll never watch it again.Shannon Doherty is the star. LOL

    Dorky prayers to u.
