Random Monday

I haven't posted in a while because I've been having WAY too much fun on Facebook. Sorry for the defection!

I will post here occasionally because there are things that I still want to journal in my life some of which have happened this last week but first I wanted to share a great and funny video. Check it out! Entitled: Everything is amazing but nobody is happy

It looks like we are moving to Utah! We should find out for sure in the next week or so. It is a good move for us in so many ways. Our kids are there and they are WAY excited that we are coming. And to me, that is amazing. What a blessing it is to have your grown children actually WANT you to be closer. Even our son-in-law is excited for us to be there. Wow! Utterly incredible.

We are already looking at home rentals and have found a couple that we are keeping our fingers crossed will still be available when we are ready. I have just been praying that the Lord will guide and direct us to where we need to be.

So I've had another surgery last week. Last night I was whining to my husband that my body looks like a full on science experiment. With a double mastectomy, hysterectomy, laparascopy, portacath surgery and now a gall bladder surgery I can definitely qualify for the bride of Frankenstein! Geezo Peezo.

I've told the surgeon that we have GOT to stop meeting like this. I am running out of things to cut out.

Hope all is well out there in blogland. I might be stopping by today and saying hi!!

I've missed you!

I feel the same way about the surgeries and you might even have me beat. Not that it's the sort of contest you WANT to win though, ugh! The only surgery I'd look forward to is the plastic kind to fix this mess.

Anyway, good luck with the moving deal. It has to be stressful AND exciting all at once. How awesome that your kids all want you near. I hope my kids feel that way in the future.

Ok so enough of the facebook. I don't do facebook. I DO blog however so keep on blogging please!

I had no idea you'd been under the knife so much! Glad you're still all in one piece, in a manner of speaking.

You moving to Utah means I'd get to meet you in person! So I'm excited, too!

Doing the "all kinds of silly" dance over here!!! I was actually just thinking today--as I was driving a child somewhere--I wonder if Kitchen Ditcher is alright?? And BAM!! Here you are!

What do they use to sew you shut??!! Forget running out of things to cut--is there any skin left that is sewable? :0) Wow--a move!! That is wonderful to be wanted by those who know you best. Keep us posted!

I just want to come over and give you a big hug. Man you have endured so much. Glad you will be closer to the kiddos. That is awesome news.

Hi
I stumbled across your blog on LDS BLOGS. I thought you might be interested in a site my wife and I just built called MormonsMadeSimple.com, which uses simple, explanatory videos to explain the Mormon faith. Feel free to feature any of these videos on your blog, or just share them with non-member friends. We're hoping these videos will be missionary tools to help members share their beliefs. Anyway, sorry to spam your comments section. I couldn't find any contact information for you on your blog.

OK SOMEONE has to be the voice of reason here, so I'll do it! Wrightwood will NEVER be the same without you, do I feel as if there has been a mass exodus, is there something I don't know??? Are we going to be hit with 7 plagues or something? Do you have inside info? And Utah?? What is up with that?
DEB join us for dinner Saturday...we need to talk!

Oh, my goodness! That's a lot of cutting and slicing you ahve been through. I'm so sorry. I had three c-sections and an appecdectomy and I thought I've been through a lot. Apparently not as much as you have been.

I'm happy for you that you are moving to Utah and soon will be close to family. That's always great when you have love ones close by.

Jen said...

Wow Deb! You've certainly been poked and prodded and cut! Ewww. How I feel for you. I do. I hope you are feeling better and your recuperation is going well. Where will you be moving to in Utah cuz we'd sure love to have you in the Salt Lake area! Woot! That's exciting.

tiki_lady said...

waah, i wanna move to ut! there just isnt a job for us there. There doesn't seem to be one for us here in NC either, but atleast we have a home. good luck on your move. I too have been enamored with FB.

You have really been through the anesthesia, huh?? You know there are easier ways to get legalized drugs! you don't have to get cut for them! LOL
seriously, I am glad you are recovering and so sorry you have had so many health issues!

I haven't caught the FACE BOOk fun yet. Must resist the addiction!

Hope your movies and surgery goes well. I am trying to figure out which one will be less painful.

One comes with drugs ... something to think about. m

Awesome post! I miss you! Hope you are doing well! ♥ Hugs :)

Doran & Jody said...

Oh man and I thought I had tons of surgeries. Sounds like you need a zipper put in you too. That's what I always told the Dr., then they wouldn't have to take the time to put me out. I am now gutless.
Hope you are on the mend!!
Do you get to move to Utah?

Jer & Di said...

Closer to the kids? Cool! I pray your plans go smoothly (and yes you need to ease up on the surgeon relationship, people may start to talk:)

Rhonda said...
