A day of rest?

So the other day when I said, "Turn off the TV and do something,"    this  is what I had in mind:




NOT  this....




Sheesh....

Flippin' Cancer!!

Just got horrible news. I sit here with tears flowing like rivers down my face. My dear, sweet friend Mia has been battling cancer since April of this year. She had a spot on her tongue that wouldn't heal. Her dentist mentioned that she should go get it looked at just to make sure everything was okay. After she had a biopsy done and spoke to the doctor she was sure that everything was going to be okay, after all, she wasn't really a candidate for oral cancer...she didn't smoke, didn't chew tobacco, didn't have any of the genetic markers, but when she got the results she was in for a shock. She had cancer! Mia, was a beacon of strength through her surgery and recovery. She had about 1/3 of her tongue removed, all the lymph nodes in the right side of her neck removed and went through a course of radiation. Through it all she remained positive and drank her yucky Boost through a straw without complaint. That liquid food caused her all kinds of problems and...

The earth stood still today. No, it wasn't because the planets were aligned. No, it wasn't because yesterday's date was 10/10/10 (which happens only once every 1000 years) No, it wasn't because the month of October has 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays and 5 Sundays, in it which, according to Facebook (and we know how reliable that is),only happens once every 823 years. No, it was more phenomenal then all of that. It was because I ironed. Sheets. Yes, I actually ironed sheets. Now, you need to understand that I only pick up my iron to move it from one location to another. Typically if something needs ironing one of three things happens: 1. it stays wrinkled 2. it hangs in my closet until gravity pulls the wrinkles out over time 3. I go and buy a new item of clothing. I just don't iron! So why did I do it today, you may ask? It was my front load washer and dryer's fault. It made Kiki's new bedding so wrinkly that I just could not stand to let ...

My story....

Wow, it’s been a long time since I’ve written on here. I’d like to say it’s because I was on a wonderful vacation in an exotic land. But I wasn’t. I’d like to say it’s because I was busy learning to scuba dive, or very involved in a photography course. But I wasn’t. I’ve been sick. Really, really sick. I-am-lucky-to-be-alive kind of sick. I had necrotizing faciitis (flesh eating disease) and I was also in septic shock (blood infection where major organs start shutting down). Here’s my story. Monday, March 30: Not entirely sure if this is where the story begins…. I ate a quarter of an avocado. Big deal, right? Oh yeah, I’m allergic to avocadoes. I wasn’t sure I was allergic until Monday. I suspected, but I wasn’t sure. After eating it on Monday, I was sure. I had a tummy ache, my face was red and I had to lay down because I felt so ill. But that doesn’t explain anything really. If the avocado is to blame it may be because I didn’t wash it prior to cutting and peeling it. I also didn’t ...
