Boob is a Weekend Word

The Good, The Bad, and Well that’s about all

The Good Things I’m Thankful For

• Emma getting weepy and crying because she can’t cuddle with me because it hurts to hug.
• Emma and Erin fighting over who gets to do little jobs for me around the house.
• My husband, Buck, surprising me with a Cafe Mocha when he gets back from dropping girls off for school.
• My momma making up my bed when she is staying with me.
• My momma rubbing my back and feet on demand no matter what else she is in the middle of.
• My little fifi dog sunny always laying in my lap no matter where i’m sitting.
• The unconditional love and admiration of my friends. This isn’t as tough as they think but I might as well milk it right?
• Being able to spend time at home relaxing and stress free because of all my great staff and my fantastic business partner Jim Langlois who is just a saint for making all of this so much better for me. Jim also owns Interglo Stone – a importer of granite products for the production of headstones. Boy i’m gonna have the finest grave marker that ever did exist one day!
• Getting my drainage tubes out on May 10. Like shedding a ball and chain!

The Bad Things I’m Tolerant Of

• Noticing my pill box getting empty and worrying about it.
• Thinking of not needing to see my doctors again soon. I’ve really taken a liking to Dr. Gunn and Dr. Moore.
• The drainage tubes in my breast. They hurt!
• Having to wear a grenade sized drainage pump with a tube sticking out of me when i’m trying to look normal in public.
• Having awful bruises and scars.
• Having to sleep on my back all night.
• Having to wear a tight bra all the time. Weren’t my perky little boobies supposed to stand up without one? I know that time is coming soon but it is not now!
• Having trouble typing…seriously my fingers aren’t moving at the speed of my brain or the other way around. Not really sure.
• Getting diagnosed with a small necrotic patch of skin on my right breast on May 10.
