The Things Some People Go Through to Get the Good Drugs

Three words: Oral. Surgery. Tuesday.

So, what does a gal like me do the night before? Basically everything I won’t be able to do for over a week:

I chew. Popcorn, toffee peanuts. granola, pumpkin seeds.
I suck beverages through a straw. Really hard.

I do NOT rinse with antiseptic mouthwash or warm salt water.

I plan out my TV for the next 3-days. I need to stay in my recliner and not wander around the house in a stupor, asking for trouble. I will not be allowed in the kitchen, for reasons I’m too lazy tonight to go into. Ask my kids – they love telling the story…

On the TV list, so far, are movies I love.  Armageddon, Lethal Weapon, Forever Young. One movie I had not yet seen – Life of PI. I read the book, so I know the story, and I’m looking forward to seeing the film.

I wouldn’t expect too much blog activity this week. Of course, it could go the other way, after all, this is me we’re talking about.  Way too much TMI – type of information may get spread around the Internet.  God forbid there are photos!

Do not fear. I can’t write in my sleep and that is all I can do besides sit like a zombie in la-la land. The pain is gone – but so is my brain.

Got to go rinse with salt water and medicine. Then it’s back to my recliner to sleep through another movie. Yawn! In an hour I will wonder if I posted this blog or not ;-(

The Can of Worms I Opened

BlueEyeCrying Wow!
Women really hate the third #1 of ‘The Man Rules’. [Please remember that I did not write this list – some guy did…]

I received comments ranging from ‘men need to learn the difference between real and crocodile tears’, to the scientific explanation of differences in the crying reflex in men and women.

Otherwise, most of the woman AND men thought the Man Rules list was accurate – as did I.

Thank you to everyone who responded  🙂   I now have input for “The Woman Rules” – #1 will express our feelings about crying! BTW, The Woman Rules will be in a properly formatted sequentially numbered list. These rules will not be shouted by using ALL CAPITAL LETTERS.

Please submit your thoughts on other ‘rules’ that women generally live by. I am drawing a blank here, people!

Thanks in Advance!!

It’s No Joke

Mother Nature is playing an April Fool’s trick on us mountain folks  today. 


She has quite the blizzard going on. Everything is covered in white and the snowflakes keep coming down.

Not that you can see the delicate ones on video. The big fat flakes hide when they see me with a camera. Even the delicate ones stop after I record them. If I go about my sewing or writing as usual – they come back. They know I love watching them fall and they tease me mercilessly….

So much for doing the Tuesday grocery shopping. And the weather-guessers are saying this will go on until Thursday. Even though I didn’t have plans to go anywhere else, and I’m a homebody at heart, I feel eerily trapped.

Glad I have plenty of soup and edible stuff  in the pantry! And, if the power stays on, all is well  😉

A happy April to us all!

P.S. They are falling again.
