This is not a frivolous post. I implore anyone who reads this, regardless of your religious beliefs, to pray. If you're not one for praying, then send positive energy into the universe. My sister Maureen is undergoing a serious surgery tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. Loyola University Hospital. The surgery is expected to last 3-5 hours. She'll have a tumor removed that is the size of a large grapefruit. It has compromised one of her kidneys. Therefore, they will remove the damaged one. In addition they will attempt to give her a hysterectomy. Due to excessive scar tissue this may not be possible. Depending on the damage within, she may require a colostomy. Her liver, heart, lungs are all healthy. They don't anticipate any serious problems, but during the initial discussion of the surgery they had to give the run down of the possible things that could go wrong. Even when it's a million to one chance, they have to disclose the risk ... even death. When I first heard...
You are such a good sister! It reminds me of my Mom when I would see a snake while we were working in the yard when I still lived at home. I'd start cussing and wailing, and she'd just grab it, tuck it under her shirt so I couldn't see it anymore and release it somewhere else. You people with your animal calming skills are amazing!
ReplyDeleteEek a mouse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMOUSE!!!!!!!!!!! Wow!
ReplyDeleteMarissa, what I amout to tell you has absolutely nothing and I mean nothing to do with your mouse vid.
ReplyDeleteIn previous posts, if I remember correctly, you were all about MAMA MIA! Wanting to spend some extra moola wearing a hole in my pocket, I jumped into my hoopde and made a mad dash to my favorite thrift store, a.k.a., Target and wouldntchaknowit they had it on blue ray...yep...I spent an extra fifteen dollahs so I could see all the yummy that IS Pierce Brosnan...BOOOOYAAAAAAHHH!!
The movie was filled with so much fabulousness...like the dancing... that we used to participate in on the week-ends at the fairgrounds or wherever we could find somewhere to get our groove on! The entire movie brought back so many memories from days gone by!
For the first time in a long time I DID NOT fall asleep while indulging in one of my favorite pasttimes...Thank you,
Love,

My BF's watching football all day, I'm bored. At least you got something goin on over here. Pop Life & SIT80s are stalled out for the time being.
I think I'll build a snowman.
Oh, when I was in high school, our cat used to go outside and bring in mouse in her mouth to play with it! When that happened, my mom and my sisters would give me a plastic bag and disposable wooden chopsticks and they would wait outside until I get the mouse in the plastic bag and come outside. Then I had to wait until they'd go back inside, then I could release the mouse.
