Missing in Action

As you all have noticed, I have been missing in action for the past couple of days. Well, maybe you haven't noticed, but I am going to tell myself that you have spent a couple of sleepless nights wondering where I was and if I was alright!

Tuesday I spent a few hours with my gyno. Dr. It was my first time meeting him and I will say that he has the bedside manner of a stick. His name is Dr. R.... well I call him Dr. Rasputin (are you making a connection yet?) I am changing the name because I am sure that his nurses will find my blog and tell Dr. Rasputin (when you read this next part, make your voice go high and nursy sounding) "Oh Dr. Rasputin, we just found this wonderful, funny, witty, enlightening blog that you must read." Then Dr. Rasputin will read it, figure out it was me who wrote it and leave some metal instrument in the cavity that will be created when he removes my womanly, baby making parts. I will never be able to fly again because I will set off the metal detectors. Hell, I probably won't ever be able to shop again because I will set off all the store detectors - I might even end up in jail! So you can see why I am protecting the innocent (myself).

I had been told that I probably would need a hysterectomy by my family Dr. who I will call Dr. Nice Lady. She says that although Dr. Rasputin has no personality/bedside manner, he is an excellent surgeon. So I guess as long as he doesn't read my blog, I will be safe. Surgery is scheduled for April 8. I am not nervous about it at all. I am more worried about leaving the running of "my" house in the hands of "Big", no one (and I mean no one) can take care of the house the way I do baby. I hope that they give me some strong drugs that I can take until "Big" decides to go back (read - run back) to work.

I did manage to get to a quilt shop and purchase some more material for my pinwheel quilt. I also got some information on some upcoming Shop Hops. I will post photos later.

Hope you are having a good week - will talk to you all later!

Yesterday


Yesterday morning I had to get up early, not drink coffee (horrible fate), not eat breakfast (not as horrible as no coffee) and go to the hospital to give the amount of blood that a vampire would drink! I am not good at giving blood - my veins are small and refuse to give it up! Oh, by the way, I was giving blood, not because I am a good person, but because my Doctor says I must! Finally at around 10:30 I was able to get some really bad coffee at the hospital cafeteria and an English Muffin that refused to toast, not matter how many times I sent it through the toaster! Needless to say, I thought my day would go downhill from there. I did some shopping while in town (I live in a small town about an hour away the hospital - we only have a Walmart and Kroger), but didn't really get anything other than some goodies from Target. I really like Target better than Walmart, if for no other reason than the people seem to be happy there. My local Walmart has the crabbiest people working there, one lady hollered at me because I gave her a coupon for a free item and she had to look up the item on her register receipt to find out how much it was! Imagine - it must have been just horrible for her! I am sure it wasn't in her job description! Anyway, by the time I got home I was pooped! I am going to blame it on the lower amount of blood in my system! So, today I have to do yesterdays house stuff along with today's and do some homework for my Color Theory Class (I will post on that later). Thanks for listening to my ranting! Will post more later today and I promise it will be better!
