Yes, you can
Be too skinny! I never thought I would be, but here I am. I look horrible. I haven’t gotten up for the day, but I will in a minute. Yesterday I weighed 133. Wonder how much today? I didn...
Monday
Forgot to push publish yesterday. Today I have kept down a yogurt and an ice cream sandwich. Not testing anything else. Got my mail in ballot and completed it. Two weeks ago was my surgery.
Sunday
Today was a down day. I have only kept down 3 crackers and a little water. That’s with the nausea meds. My brother texted me bright and early to see if I was up and getting ready for church. ...
Pain in the ….
I have a bed sore on my behind. Ordered topical and bandages from Amazon. Should be on the porch in the morning. Feeling nauseous tonight. Hope I can sleep. I guess this is going to be wher...
No Secrets
Not that I really had a bunch. My husband and I have been together almost 30 years and there were just a couple of bodily functions I had kept to myself. No longer. He has seen and heard ever...
Getting Around
I am getting around pretty good. A week makes a world of difference. I am able to shower normally, walk around the house, etc. I am not supposed to actually “do” anything. I am already bored...
When I was in the hospital
They treated me as though I were elderly. Prior to all this mess I went to the Y 4 days a week. I am a proportional height and weight. There is nothing about me that reads elderly. They aske...
Post Op
I got home from the hospital Thursday morning. The only real info I got was, Yes, it was ovarion cancer and had spread to other organs. Ovarian is rarely found in the early stages. Now, I s...
Tomorrow
At 7:00 is my surgery. Check into hospital at 5:30 AM.
Function
Yesterday I didn’t function- at all. I only got out of bed to go to the bathroom and feed the dogs.. My anxiety hit me in the guts. Spent a lot of time in the bathroom. Today, I have things ...
Pre Op
I had my pre op appointment today. This will be the biggest surgery of my life. After all the gory details today, I got pretty nauseous. Now, it’s after midnight and I ‘m hoping what I took f...

Waiting
I am not so good at waiting. My appointment with the Gynecologist/Oncologist is tomorrow, finally! The lab drew 5 vials of blood on Monday. The Cancer Antigen test looked “normal” in “my medi...
Looks like …..
Ovarian cancer. I have been referred to a Gynecologist/Oncologist. My insurance has approved me too. Should have an appointment hopefully next week and will have surgery at the earliest openi...
Sick
After 4 years the Covid caught me. It brought along bronchitis as a bonus. Covid brain and tired is real. Bronchitis is bronchitis. That’s about it.
H/Town
I live in the Houston area. I am sure you know what’s going on here. Hurricane Beryl did a number on us. The eye came right over and high winds took out trees and electrical lines. It’s a mess...
Strategy
I have a few games I play online. I am not a strategic player, never have been. I don’t think “if this, then that”, and I will have a better outcome. I play for entertainment and whatever happe...
High Energy
I don’t know where all the energy came from today, but I sure hope it comes back again tomorrow. After church we had leftover chicken and rice along with fresh squash and sliced fresh tomatoes....
Covid
Damn, damn, damn! Eric has covid! He feels so bad! Obviously he won’t be coming for Christmas. I hope he is able to get himself treated!
Y’all
If I never see a Premier Protein drink for the rest of my life ……. I gag just thinking about them. They are 30 grams of protein and one needs protein to heal. Tomorrow is my 2 week post op. I r...
I think
I probably over did it yesterday. Since I was feeling good, James Brown good no less, except for some soreness around my incisions. I had just about as much clutter as I could take. I am very...
Another Day
A little bit better than yesterday. Do you know why it is so easy to stick to the liquid diet? My throat is swollen and I would choke. That will keep you in line. Today I am going to walk outs...
Deep
Want to know something deep? I don’t think I made most of life’s important decisions. I think I let life happen. I never chose a boyfriend or a husband (I have had 2 husbands). They chose me an...
Tuesday
Today was the first day I put on clothes since my surgery. I wore some capris with a very loose elastic waist and an extra roomy t-shirt. I drove 1.5 miles and got my nails done. I washed 2 loa...

Book Description
I’m mostly trolling around looking for my friends/favorites whatever the familiar people are called and marking them.
I don’t promise to write any more or less than I did the last few years on OD. I do so enjoy reading....
Doesn’t seem fair to take without giving but - that’s what it is for now.
