It Can Only Happen to Me

With all the pain of the last few days I did have a few laughs too.

To begin, I removed my red, down, silk, throw pillow covers. (that is a big description).
I had to wash them. (they needed it after four years)
As you know by previous post, down is hard to work with, plus I had a few feathers thrown in for good measure.
I had feathers on the bed in the back bedroom. I recovered the pillows with heavy quilting batting.
I then put the fresh covers on. Needless to say, I had feathers on the floor, bed and literally everywhere.
I took the bed covers to the washer and cleaned everything up. It looked great.
In this wash I also added a few more whites to finish the load. ( I usually do that).
IN this wash I had underwear.
That is where it gets interesting.
While packing for the hospital, I grabbed about three pair of undies, dropped them in the suitcase and away I went, Never thinking of feathers.
As you know the hospital wants you to measure your urine, after surgery.( to be sure everything is working properly)
On my second trip to the bathroom I noticed something weird in the little hat looking measure.

Was that a Feather I saw???

No it was two feathers. I began laughing.
I left it for the nurse, they check for color etc.
As I went to my bed at 2 in the morning, I was still laughing when she came in.
I told her, "I am not sure but I think I am peeing feathers"
She responded with "What is that?"
She went in to look and came out laughing, saying, "Well that is a first, A Patient that pees feathers."
I then explained about the pillow work, and we figured they were hung in my undies.
So we had a few laughs in the middle of the night. After all I was not sleeping.
Who can sleep in a hospital? Not me, unless I am under anesthesia.
Then not such a good sleep.
As I said, this can only happen to me. I do everything so fast I take no time to check things out thoroughly.

Photos

Mamaw and Baby Kian, see those paint splattered jeans, See that smile? I am one happy Mamaw.
Kiara loves to swing, we spent about an hour outside, walking, swinging, and picking up acorns, It was a magnificent day.

Madi do you remember? Probably not you were only three when I bought that for you, You wore it to Moms 30th birthday party.
Kiara loves it.




Man that ice cream is COLD, Leila keeps shoveling it in though. She LOVES ice cream. So cute!!!



I Love the photo of Papaw and Leila He had a beautiful memory holding her hand. Brought back his younger years as Dad not papaw.


This is me and my Love, Don't you just love the honest smiles? Real Love and Devotion.



Jarod with his haul of acorns, That kept the kids busy for about an hour. Plus Mamaw got to crawl around on the ground with them.


Man I do not want to ride again, I must be ticked.
OK I may be off in my titles, One is of Me and Ken, my baby boy, Oh I just remembered I have none of Kris on this, I will fix that. LOL She did not like the photo that was taken, Sorry Charlie.



Beautiful Caylum, Oh I mean handsome. He is such a light to us. Always smiling, Oh he is about to lose two teeth, wonder if that will affect his big open mouth smile. I hope not.

Hey it gives me something to do.

Pre Op

Today I go in for my pre-op. Thursday I go in for surgery. I will be fine. David will call when he gets home, he can not deal with the cell phone. He probably wont know how to answer it. Or I can call. (LOL LOL LOL)
My thyroid has to go, go , go. This is no big deal. I can live quite nicely without it. After all I have been on medication for several (15) years.
The size of the growth has my doctor concerned. Instead of mm in size it is CM in size. It has changed the shape of my thyroid, and it is hard calcium.
He said if I were his Mom he would do the same thing. (I am old enough to be his Mom). Sweet Doctor that he is.

Now is it Cancer? They will not know until they have it in the lab. For the beginning they are removing the left side only, once it is tested, (if the lab says it definitely is cancer) they will immediately take the right side out.
Why definitely? If the lab says, "It appears to be cancer," they leave the right side alone, but once all the test are complete and it turns out cancerous, they go back in after a week or so and take the other. However and this is big. I requested Redding Medical (or what ever its name is now). When I said that, they said, "Good they have the best pathology lab, they have several tiers they can check".
I also requested it because they took such good care of me when I had open heart surgery.
Another big reason, my cardiologist is just across the parking lot.
So see I have it all under control.
Again I am not concerned. I think I will be fine, after all Cancer has never been a scare in our family. NOT at All, but I can guarantee you what is. HEART DISEASE.
I will miss talking, I know I will, I keep thinking of things to say, ALL THE TIME!!! LOL I Bet that surprises my children. NOT..
Not that it will be for long, I may be pretty raspy for a while like a week or so, so what do I do.
Got it!!! (Per Jeanette my baby sister. )
First I buy a HUGE writing tablet, and Different colored balls. When I want Davids attention I write what I want, throw a ball at him and hold up my sign.
Red means EMERGENCY, (I want it now) Green means, Take your time, Yellow Means Caution. He can't hear me most of the time now. Lord what is that week going to be like? I will have to just keep my mouth shut.
So with all that in mind. Just keep us in your prayers. David will be on one side and My God will be on the other.

Noahs Ark

NOAH'S ARK.

Everything I need to know, I learned from Noah's Ark.

ONE : Don't miss the boat.
TWO : Remember that we are all in the same boat!
THREE: Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark.
FOUR : Stay fit. When you're 60 years old , someone may ask you to do something really bog.
FIVE : Don't listen to critics; just get on with the job that needs to be done.
SIX : Build your future on high ground.
SEVEN : For safety's sake, travel in pairs.
EIGHT : Speed isn't always an advantage. The snails were on boardwith the cheetahs.
NINE : When you're stressed, float awhile.
TEN : Remember the Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic byProfessionals.
ELEVEN : No matter what the storm, when you are with God, there's always a rainbow waiting.Please pass this on to people you want to be blessed.

Most people walk in and out of your life ..... but FRIENDS leave
footprints in your heart.
