Twenty Five

years that is!
DH and I were married twenty five years ago today in a small place called The Love Chapel on the California/Nevada border in Lake Tahoe.
I remember that Reverend Raymond L Love wore a lot of bling and well, it was fun.

surprise surgery


Well, my trigger finger took hold and wouldn't release, so my doc did surgery this morning!

check out the orange spray tan ...
No, it's just the stuff the slop on for surgery.

I was barely home and Logan crawled up on my hand and settled in my elbow.
He seems to always do this after a surgery.
I guess he's putting his healing mojo on it.
Well, getting woozie, time for a rest.
I'll post again sooner...

Bones


While I was outside on the phone with a friend, I noticed these tiny bones in the rocks.
They are obviously from one of Scratch cat's snacks.
I picked them up because they are itty bitty and kind of interesting.

Stuff


This glass sculpture is in my Neurosurgeons office.

It's beautiful.



These are the matchboxes from a recent swap. I made the crows.

:)
I know this wasn't much of a post, but I thought I'd better make a new post.

I just wanna sleep...


Okay, so, I went to the doctor to find out why I'm so tired and all that good stuff and he gives me something more for sadness and blood tests.
The tests get back and the on call doctor sees my platelet count and calls my oncology/hematology and leaves the message that my count is critically low and I need to be seen ASAP.
The next morning I get the same message.
Well, today I went to the o/h doctor and he has a huge grin because my "critically low" platelet count was only at 61,000 down from my last test of 68,000.
For someone with ITP they don't treat until you get down to 20,000, unless you're having neck surgery, then they pump you with some platelets which lasts about two weeks.
He was also my moms oncologist and said that yes, I am tired and worn out from the low counts, but he feels that I am still grieving for my mom and that is adding to it.
So...
I just wanna sleep.
I want to put on a beautiful gown and wings just like the lady in the picture and take a nap somewhere beautiful.
Well, my bed will work too.
Take care of yourself and have a sense of humor!
Laugh and you'll feel better!
I know I am.

Making art

My Mother-in-law found some paper with houses on it that she just loved and bought it for me.
Well, I decided to make her something with the houses, so I cut them out and made inchies out of them and then glued them to a painted canvas.
She bought the canvas as well, and my mom always said that people buy for you what they would like to receive whether they realize it or not.
So I made this for the MIL.


Cute eh?
I'm making another one...I want to open an etsy shop darn it!
