You all know there has to be some drama in here somewhere right?
So we got home Monday night; I went to work Tuesday morning and half way through my shift I could hardly move. Stomach pain. I swore my gall bladder had just blown up or something. I finished my shift (yes I am crazy like that)
Then I went to my doctors office. She sent me for an ultrasound the next day at 7am (ugghh) and then I waited. At 3:00 she called and said to go to the ER. That was just a great experience. We arrived at 3:10pm and there was no one in the waiting room. We could not be that lucky! We left at 3am with a diagnosis of diverticulitis. It is not infected so I should be feeling better in a few days. I did not eat well while we were at the beach and I know better..oh well..So here we are at Friday again and I hope you will join our lovely host; Mrs.4444 here:www.halfpastkissintime.com You will not be disappointed!

P.S. I am just wondering if you still remember where you were when you heard the 9/11 news. Do you remember how you felt?
The sky in its various colors looks amazing. Nature always springs surprises on us....
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed your vacation. I loved being only 3 hours from the beach when i lived in PA, but, now I am in heaven because I live 30 min from the beaches of Lake Michigan. There is a saying out here...we have white sandy seclude beach's here too but without the salt ;-)
ReplyDeleteWhen I heard the news of 9-11, I was with a friend leaving East TN State University Nurse Practitioner classes. A girl went screaming down the hallway and we just stood in amazement and questioned what was wrong with HER? As we left the parking lot we noticed kids from the dorms hauling baskets of clothes and junk from their dorms to their cars, which was a strange time to be doing so; it took forever to get out of the parking lot since everyone was leaving at the same time. Finally, the announcement came on the radio while we sat in the parking lot. What a strange and sad day.
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures and your grandaughter is a beauty.
ReplyDeleteI can sympathize with the diverticulitis.. took 12 hours for my diagnosis in the ER the first time I had it... never heard of it not being infected..so lucky you didn't have to have the nasty drugs...good luck and thanks for stopping by.
Oh, I remember the fear of 9/11 and the guilt that I already scheduled delivery of my new car that day. As I sat in the dealership glued to the tv, I wondered how I could possibly be doing something exciting for myself.
ReplyDeleteLove the beach pics! I am sure glad you're still having great weather for beach days, we are too even though it's a bit cooler (Thankfully since the humidity causes the asthma I have to flair up.)
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about your diagnosis. That can be a real pain. Hope they can get you on a regime that makes it easier for you.
Hi Doreen. Thanks for stopping by. Dropping by in return. :) and also followed you. The beach pics are so nice.
ReplyDeleteHi Doreen-- I am still devastated everyday all over again by 9/11... especially since nothing's been rebuilt at the site yet, nine years later, and what they are considering building is just a travesty of justice. I agree with another commenter: I lost my hope in humanity that day, and each day my hope grows dimmer, sorry to say. My heart is full for you, and your loss as well. No one should ever have to go through what you did. Bless your heart- Take Care- Ann
ReplyDeleteHello! I came over from Mrs4444 and am so delighted that I did. Your book sounds wonderful even with the subject not so. I applaud you for working through this tragedy in such a way that others may benefit from yoru experience.
ReplyDeleteOn 9/11/01, I had just arrived at the preschool where I worked and had to hold it all in so as not to upset the children. It was a very numb day for many of us.
Thanks for a great post!
Sounds like you had fun traveling. Hope you are feeling better.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even realize it was 9-11 already. My son was about 3 weeks old, so I was home. I spent all day watching the news which may not have been a good idea. Then I called my mom and started crying about how I don't want my husband or my son to be drafted into a war. She said no worries honey, we won't be at war that long.
Ha! That's what we both thought. So now I guess I can start earnestly worrying that in about 9 years my son might be drafted. Fun!
If you are not already a member you should join Sky Friday.
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better. That is no fun to have!
