I'm so bad.........

I forgot to come back and tell you all the news over the Christmas days.

Michael got a super, repeat SUPER, good report last Wednesday! He is doing so good he does not have, repeat HAVE, to go back to doctor until APRIL of 2012!!!!

His viral load, which was at 1.3 MILLION in August is down to 62. Yep you got that right. 62. (Average for HIV patients is 48)

His CD4 counts that were down to 47 in August are 362 or 369!! (Average for HIV patients are 600-800)

His platelets are 82, up from 6 in September. YAY!!! (Average for people in general is 150-450) Thousand that is. This number is in thousands so it is up for 6,000 to 82,000.

So we had a blessed Christmas just with this news!!

Next the root canal did great. No pain. Wonderful piano music, warm blanket, roaring fire, red wine......ah it was so peaceful.

Well until Doc brought the jack hammers in and destroyed my image in my subconscious! Go back in a couple of weeks to get fitted for the crown.

Had the grands for about 3 days while I was off and it was super grand let me tell ya!

Then we all had Christmas at Layne's, including Dad and Mrs. Dad, and it was another super grand day! Even had all the kids and grandsons! Couldn't have asked for a better Christmas!!

Hope all of yours was grand too!

May the Good Lord bless and keep us throughout 2012!!

Hugs!!

My Christmas Present to me........

A root canal on Thursday......

Go me.......

What a super wonderful painless gift...........

Right??

We shall see. ..

How many shopping days til Christmas?

How many do I have to get Christmas presents?

I have gotten this many so far: ZERO!

I have no clue what to get the kids....

I liked it better when they were little and had a list of toys......

Grown kids are much, much harder!

And not so  much fun.........

Any suggestions??

No Clue

I have a really really great idea for a blog!

I just can't remember what it is.........

Grins and giggles!

Well, it's Monday

It's another Monday.

Not a bad Monday.

Just another Monday.

The older I get the faster they follow Friday.

I'm not likin' that atall...........

Not atall..........

Have a happy, or contented at least, Monday!

Hugs!!

Thoughtlessness

Sometimes in our lives, we hurt people we care for the mostest.

Yesterday that was me.

I acted like the old me that I can't stand.

I am so very sorry.

There are no words to express my feelings.

I love this person so very much.

FYI-Instructions are important

Just an FYI-

Make sure when cooking in a microwave you read the MICROWAVE instructions........

For some reason CONVENTIONAL oven instructions do not, repeat do NOT, work in the microwave......

They will turn pizza into CHARCOAL in 7 minutes.

PLUS cause lots and lots and LOOOOOOOOTS of smoke........

Just saying...............

Muddy dogs for sale or trade

I have a yard without grass.

We have had rain for five days now.

(I am not, repeat NOT, complaining about the rain.)

But because I have a yard without grass, I now have mud.

I also have a pet door, or rather a pet screen.

So when the 4 leggeds need to go potty they can go without waking me up.

They only wake me up when they come back in.

Cold.

Wet.

Muddy.

As they crawl in bed to get warm and dry.

Do I hear any offers?

Trades??

Hello??

Anyone???

It seems strangely quiet in the audience today......

Hmmmm.....

Guess that means I am stuck with the muddy monsters.

At least until the yard dries up.....

Happy Pre-Hump day!!

indecent exposure

As I was drivin along the other day and saw a runner.

A male runner.

Well, he was tryin to be a runner.

With a white rather hefty torso.

No one deserves to see this.

I am a thinkin there should be law against half naked men runnin along side the road.

I was blinded.

There there was the issue with the man boobs.

I almost had a wreck.

Trying to get away.

This was definitely indecent exposure.

I can promise you no one would want to see a half naked me running down the road....

Happy weekend!

World AIDS day

Today is Wear Red Day and of course I forgot!

World AIDS Day

It is World AIDS day and with it all in our face at our house, you would think I would remember to wear red......or put on a red ribbon........or something.

Nope got up as usual, in a sleep stupor, and got dressed and went to work..

Woke up about halfway to work and remembered it was Wear Red today......

OH! Wait! I have red underwear on!!

YAY! \

So does it count if I can't show it??

Hugs!

Pray for a cure!

Love ya'll!
