    Morning!!!

    Bernie - LOL...house on wheels for D...dat is amazing tho. 

    Well - my widdle girl turned 41 on Sat.  I didn't go in for her little partay, but last Tues while I was in for treatment I stopped in and gave her a gift and a bottle of wine from the Erath Winery in OR.  She was happy.  Now we have to think of my DS and what to do for him...he will turn 40 in Sept.  I was in middle of chemo when DD turned da big 40 so missed da big bash for her, hoping to do better for DS.  My Stepson, da fireman, he turns 42 next month.  I always think it cool dat my kids n DH son are all a year apart and bdays run 3 consecutive months.  Weird...but obviously meant to be.

    Going on a little road trip to check out some houseboats.  Really parTay boats on lake mead at Echo Bay.  They are like hotels on the water...5 queen beds, hot tub, tv, everything we need, including airconditioning.  All we gotta take is food and booze.  We gonna look at em and see if we like...den talk about a date to go n git tooopid dwunk...heehee.

    O tay den - later taters!!

    Good morning, Loungettes! Another moderately crazy weekend, gratefully behind me. Only 3 more to go! Yeah!

    Mema--thank you for the kind words! Hope you feel better quickliest! The steak and corn on the cob were very yummy, thank you, and I had the second one for dinner last night. Still yummy! I didn't realize how much I missed having a grill till now.

    ORLA--have you told your docs about the light bothering you? This can be a sign of migraine headaches, which can be brought on by stress, and it's not like surgery etc is stressful.


    Bernie--Those are a great set of languages to be fluent in!


    Undy--HOORAY for no drains! And dogs DO count as kids, at least in my life!


    Mrs. Vino--YIPEE for no infection and bandages off!


    DorKable--Congrats on 2 years!!!! Unfortunately looking back on what's happened comes with the territory, but it does get less intense as time goes on. And I can understand your hate for the city. That would drive me nuts!


    ORLA--if you have insurance now, when you leave this company they will send you a Letter of Credible Coverage with the dates you were covered. As long as you do not go without coverage for more than 30 days (I think, I may be wrong, it may be 60) any pre-existing condition would be covered. I'm going to have to COBRA my health insurance for at least one month when I switch jobs to make sure I don't lose coverage since the new health insurance doesn't kick in until the 3rd month after hire. You can't be denied insurance through an employer. I say go interview. You don't have to accept just because you interviewed. If it's a better job and a better situation for you, go for it.


    Juliet--you do know some yummy looking firefighters!


    Wahine--oh,my dear, I feel so badly for you. It must be devastating to go through what you are with your folks. If only we could get new memory cards for our brains like we can for our computers. Coming home to a clean house AND clean dogs will be a real treat!

    ORLA--is the job interview for a position in the same company or a different one?  If it's in the same company there wouldn't be any change in the insurance, so I'm guessing it's for a different company.  If the job is a better one for you, there are ways to make sure the insurance coverage continues, so don't pass on an opportunity just because of fear of losing insurance coverage.  The key is to mantain coverage, no to be without insurance for any length of time.  That may mean using the COBRA option, which is very expensive, or planning your last day at the old job and the first day at the new job carefully.  Usually insurance covers until the last day of the month you resign, so if you resign early in the month and start the new job early in the month you may get new insurance starting the first of the month after you are hired right as the old insurance coverage ends.  You have to be really informed and be careful, but it can be done.  I just hate to see you miss out on a great job over insurance issues, but I absolutely understand.

    Hello Girls,

    Just wanted to jot a few words to let you know I am finally home and on the mend here..what a fiasco...nothing can go easy for me thats for sure...I've skimmed thru most posts and first want to say how yummy those jello shots looked...but now after eating so much jello..I hope not to see any for some time..as well as broth of any kind...I was npo for most of the time I was in the hosp however.  All of what I read about what had been going on was accurate.  The surgeon decided before going into surgery to drop the robot idea and got full throtle with the full abdominal surgery midevel style...lol..he did an excellent job...he did say I was a mess inside and it took him an hour to get thru all the scaring from before and the did nick my bowl in this process but quickly called for Doogie Howser to sew that up.  It took a long time for my innerds to start functioning again..my pelvis was frozen and nothin was moving...the pain was excruciating so most of the time when I said my pain was an 8 or even a 10 it was the truth..when I started feeling better in that regard I fudged my numbers a little saying higher than it was just so they wouldnt lower my dosage because as it was it didnt feel like it was doing much for me...I left the hosp with my pain at about a tolerable 2 although they did think it was more like a 5 or 6...I am so glad to be home and get this chit behind me and move on...right now ..a nap is in order...I will return later tonight or maybe tomorrow..

    Love you goils.

    Lara, funny the things that excite us, eh? Imagine being so happy to get a bra to make it LOOK LIKE we have boobs. Hey, I think you should start your own thread, and maybe title it "I want to have a baby", tell your story and I'm sure others will chime in. Oh yay, NM to the rescue yet again, on the insurance front.

    NM, you rock girl. Again I say, you can NEVER EVER leave!!!! (((((NM))))) We are all so excited for you and your new job, 3 weeks can't go by fast enough.

    Bernie, I say we party on boat #2. Calva is such a darling. Does she have more growing to do?

    Cyn, we are so glad that you are home and on the mend. We promise, no jello or broth, but only if you promise to rest and take care of YOU. Figure out when you are suppose to be out of pain pills and order more up!!!! I have you a nice comfy hammock next to the percotini fountain, and a jar of fukitols next you as well. OH, and some Natty Lites!

    Dofey, I can hear the excitement in your voice. I really really have a good feeling about this new home. I don't know why, but I do. I hope it all works out.

    Kathy will be home soonliest, that goil is a werkin fool, no matter where she is!!!!

    Welcome back Lisa, glad all is going better for you and meds are helping. Congrats on getting the tat started too.

    Good morning, Loungettes! Getting a slow start this am, dreamed about looking for something most of the night, woke up tired out already! Isn't that weird?


    Bernie--love the house boats, think I'll take the bottom one. Of course, the top one would probable cost less to maintain and run. . .

    DorKable--now THAT is a camper with all the comforts of home!

    CynCyn--glad you're home! Now is time for you to take care of yourself and rest and take good pills. Take lots of naps, your body does it's best healing work when you are sleeping.

    DorKable--have a good time ketchuping with work and all. Moving and surgery at the same time, interesting combination! But taking vacay time is better is than sick time, that's for sure.


    Scuby--Welcome back! So glad the surgeries are over with, and clean up all done. Can't wait to see a pic of the tattoo.


    Juliet--good to see you, let's have a dwinky!

    Alli - yahoo...musta missed da ‘unveiling'.  Glad no infection and ewe good as new right?

    Bernie - Calva does look mighty serious...good pic of her tho.  I love BOAT #2.  The boat we looked at were very similar, only they wouldn't let us swim off the deck or tie a raft so we could float or swim across (50 yards maybe) to beach area.  Anyway...was a bust, so gonna look into renting one from a diff marina that we can actually motor out anywhere we want on that lake.  We'll see. 

    Olara - yes...he does look like da yummy firemen in those pics.  OO soooo fercited fer ur new boob-pacs!!  And I like Goldie's idea to start a new thread about having a baby...certainly can't hurt and am sure others out there in same boat, so to speak.  Good luck dahlink! 

    Cyn - so glad your home...are things ‘moving' down south yet?  Remember, pain pills can slow things way down so don't be afraid to take something to help like MOM or sumpin.  Rest goil...pretty soon you'll be dwinking wif us.

    DorKa - mese knos dat not ur new house, however...mese wud lub to party wif da one ewe posted.  Glad you sed sumpin about ur PS bisit.  I had dat on my calendar and was going to inquire how things went.  Did you ask him if packing/lifting/etc wud b OK so soon after bixing shitty titty?   I'm assuming you'd move to new house (it will woik out) even if da ol house hasn't sold?  I guess I'm worried dat you'll do TOO much between soigery and moving...jes tryin to look out fer ya...ya knos how muchly mese lubs ewe! 

    NM - great advice to Olara!  Count down...3 weeks...yahoo!!!  I LOVE Fred cocktail glass...mese cud use one like dat!! 

    Lori - Twos-Dey...I'm ready...feeling sooo much better.  Slept good last two nights, and did not wake up with the headache and nausea...so I'm goot!

    OK...gotta git to da pool...bbl!!

    Awwwww Bernie......They are beautiful...thank you so much!! (( Bernie ))  I sure missed being here and the way you all make me smile...I'll be good and take my pills and chillax...I did that today by sleeping until 1p...didnt do too much but shower and sit on the throne.  Seems like things down south are still struggling to move properly which causes endless sitting and pain in the process.  Damn bowel...just why cant the surgeons keep away from it?  I was told I cant have any more surgeries down there...hope my apendix and galbladder hold up for the next 50 years or so ..or however long Im on this earth.

    Orla...congratulations on your new bra. 

    NM...I promise to rest and take naps....I love to sleep so pleanty of time for healin. I am supposed to walk for 30 minutes a day also per my gynosurgeon.. Im a little scared to go too far as my bowels start moving when I do and I would hate to be to far away when they want to do their thing. 

    Thanks for the welcome back Juliet...its great to be out into the world again..I've missed it..tho In the hospital I get so acustome to the routine that its almost comforting to me and I miss being there in a way also..funny how that is ..maybe Im just mental.

    Mema..great advice about taking some MOM or sumtin..I still have dulculax tabs..maybe I should take those but really my problem isnt consistancy right now..it just plain hurts no matter what kinda shape....ewww..tmi.

    Thanks for setting the hammock up for me Lori...I'll be right cumfy.....I have one refill on the pain meds I was sent home with..when I get down low I'll call for some more allright!!

    Safetest travels to our girl Kathy the workaholic...make it back to Bama ok and den you can rest yourself girl..you'll need it.

    I'll try and be back for Pau Hana..hell, I will be back for Pau Hana foah Shoah...

    Love ya goils.

    Zzzzzzzzzzzz nappy time.

    Cyn - LOL...well...I have to agree with the docs and the walking.  It will help...try jes 15 mins then move up.  Even 15 is better than none.  I kno what you mean bout getting into the 'hosp groove' thing.  With me (n mayb u) it was cuz I was raising 2 kids alone and the hosp was best rest I ever got...LOL.  HATED the food tho!  And they wud not let me leave til I had a well u kno...done da deed.  My historectomy was in 1983, and in 2009 (my next big surg) they gave me stool softners cuz I lost part of my colon and had bowel resection too.  Dunno why they wudn't do that in 83 but glad they do that now.  Talk about tmi...teehee!  Jes glad you are on the mend...(((Cyn))

    having a cider,    cyn seriously, i'm sure they discussed with you , the importance of not straining to go, as it increases abd pressure and puts additional pressure on your incision,   also don't forget to hold or splint your incision if you need to cough or sneeze.    hope everybody is having a good evening

    Thanks for the info Juliet...no one told me about the straining thing at all...the only thing they told me was not to eat too much red meat and lettuce...lol...seriously. Coughs I can kind of controll the intensity of and they hurt like a bit** regardless...I cant imagine the pain with a sneeze...oh lord....I have a pillow that I can grab but its still horrible pain..

    Bernie..what the heck is that in the pic??? Its cute as hell but what is it? I want one...lol...honestly more and more I want to adopt a dog...Im not supposed to have one here so I really have to wait but the urge in me is so strong..Im going to do some research ..maybe that will pacify me until I can get one.  I think a priority when I move will have to be the acceptance of pets.

    Mema...really nothing for me is tmi any more...I've lost all sense of modesty. I didnt get a walk in today but I walked around my house a few times...I went from the bedroom to the kitchen..to the laundry room to the car port to the bathroom quite a few times...I think thats enough for today.

    Lovin the line up Sue..Im assuming the lack of Natty up there is because I have it in front of me..right??  LOL.

    Love you gals.....lovin how ya'll make me smile and laugh..but dont make me laugh too hard right now at the moment ok...not as bad as a cough or sneeze but its still an ouchie.
