No more landline

For those who still have and/or use my landline number, the one my dad and I have had for 30 years, it’s now disconnected forever.  Cell phone only from now on.  Very sad to let it go… but it was time.   I’ll remember it forever.

I would LOVE a REAL vacation

I added a search bar to the left.  You’re welcome!

Soooo… Monday is my surgery for the removal of my gall-bladder and well, I couldn’t care less.  I guess I’ve got bigger things on my mind.  But moreso, the whole thing’s just been a huge inconvenience leading up to now.  Aside from the cripping stomach aches the stone would give me and the ER trip which made me miss a day, I’ve had to intterupt my work day 6 times in the last 7 weeks to see doctors or get tests done.  Gimme a break.

So here we go again, another year’s vacation time used up by sitting at home recovering from something.  And next year’s out of the question, too, if I’ll indeed be out 8 weeks or so due to the possible heart surgery.

Anyway, this little thing on Monday isn’t scaring me at all.  I am looking forward to a little time to myself and hopefully I’ll be well enough to sneak away for something.

Oh – and this cancer scare with my grandmom… the tests will be back tomorrow I think.  If it turns out it’s cancer, it will be the first instance of cancer in my family that I know of.  Pretty weird and interested in that respect.  

Heavy Load

Quick run-down of things happening at this moment. Forgive the negativity, please.

  • Beginning pre-op procedures for surgery in 2 weeks to get gall-bladder out.
  • Mom’s in the hospital now for unexplained stomach pain. Going to visit her now.
  • Got told I need to get to The Cleveland Clinic for examination ASAP.
  • Was also informed I should probably look into heart surgery to be done this coming spring.

How, what?  Ugh….
