Surgery

Hi people,
Just wanted to let you know I saw the neurosurgeon today, and to my surprise the cervical stenosis had gotten worse... (I have degenerative disk disease)..<> I'm having surgery on June 12, the Dr. wanted to do it sooner rather than later, he was concerned. So I'm having my pre Op on June 6th, the surgery will be general, 2 hours and in Stanford for a couple of days. So mom will postpone her trip until ??? I will have to be in a neck collar for about 8 weeks.
Mom had been having tingling & numbness in one of her hands, and today, the same day of my appt, she found out that HER tingling and numbness was from degenerative disk disease as well, so it was suggested she see a neurologist..... but when????... wanted to give you all a head's up...

AWOL

I'm probably going to be AWOL for awhile... I'm having problems at home and might check out for awhile, not sure if I'll have laptop with me, it's been really flaky so I might give it back to John for awhile sine he hasn't had many problems with it... to anyone who've I'm seemingly been bitchy towards, I apologize, it was not my intention at all... I just have a lot more stress than I can handle right now..
see ya..

Zzzzzzzzz

Well yeah, I'm HOME but I'm having a hard time adjusting even though the time was only an hour later... can't adjust to getting back to American food.. Ugh!

Thirsty? How about a nice Hawaiian *PUNCH*!

Okay, this blog might win the "whatever" award, but, that doesn't matter to me. :P I have a headache and I'm "babysitting the oven". (Btw K10 I made "nuns belly" this morning... =) turned out pretty good, I doubled the recipe, but only used 1 & 1/2 servings of the eggs cuz they were xlarge). I was at Walgreens last week doing some miscellanous shopping. As some of you know, a couple years or so ago, Crystal Light introduced 5-calorie "On the Go" packets, you mix them with bottled water, and they're only 5 calories. See here for more info. Then other companies caught on and started doing this, I picked up some of the Wylers' brand which are very tasty, and sugar free I might add. Some of the flavors of which I bought include (what I've tasted) Hawaiian Punch Lemon Berry Squeeze (Sugar Free) and Hawaiian Punch Berry Blue Typhoon, also sugar free, and very pretty to look at I might add. I don't know if Walgreens still has the sale, but they were a dollar each, each pack comes with 8 envelopes. That's pretty good consindering Crystal Light and Weight Watchers sells them for an average of $3-$4 a box. I'm finding them a very good way to drink water, I'm not big on just drinking water, but I have cut way back on drinking sodas and feel just as refreshed drinking these. I got hooked awhile back and bought a whole bunch of packets and was almost emptied out of them when I found the Wylers packets. Go grab some!! (Note, they work best with 20 oz bottles, however, I have a plastic cup that holds just over a quart of water, and the taste in that size is still pretty strong)...=)

Pictures

OK I don't know how long these pics will be here, the last time I included clipart, it didn't remain in the blog very long for some reason...
Here's a pic of my toe... =/ I know i know the nail is HUGE but I'm afraid to touch it!!!
And here's an Avon award I recieved for my 5 year mark... I'll dig up the plate and write about the inscription later, sorry....
Enjoy ???

Today's adventures.....

Sorry it's been awhile; I've been fighting another cold, was thinking I had another sinus infection for awhile.... this morning after the meeting at the bctr, I hung out with Scott for awhile and he took me to the Dr. this afternoon. (if you have a weak stomach, stop reading....) Just as I feared, my toenail is once again infected. So Monday he's going to pull THE WHOLE THING.... he pulled part of it 6 months ago and it was almost fully healed... but it looks icky and is painful and I wanted to get it taken care of before going to Mexico next week. So aside from taking Kefflex and Alavert (i think)?, too lazy to check, for allergy stuff, I'm having a blast... :P I haven't been on much, haven't read blogs or anything, you guys know how I do with a lot of reading that isn't scrolling sometimes...... =( NO I'm not making excuses...
Anyhoo, I'm also still sorta mystified about last week's events. =/
Am going to go soak my feet and the rest of me for awhile......
And now we return you to your
regularly scheduled surfing...
