I met my new OB/Gyn today.

We officially set the surgery wheels turning.
Looks l like both my mini vans will go as well as the garage.
I shall be joining the ranks of millions of women who have had a full hysterectomy.

So now ...another ultrasound (we did a biopsy today) and then to decide when it works to schedule it.

I do like this new Dr.
The nurse had asked me to drape but It was my first exam and I wanted to meet him first.
He was very pleasant, in his mid thirties and properly put out that someone dropped the ball eight months ago,
when I had the first ultrasound.
We had a 30-40 minute discussion about the fibroids, treatment and how my age could effect the options.
He reminds me of the Dr who delivered my son 23 yrs ago.

Ultimately the entire experience the last month has taught me two things...
not to fret so much (didn't sleep last night)
AND
be more proactive with my health care provider.

MAKE it happen myself...that's the ticket.
 
 
 
 
 
 
ever been so mad you could chew nails and spit them?

Stoopid KP.

I am put off until next week.
They wanted to put me off until the 1st !!!

I had to insist they find a sooner time.

Now for another week of pretending I don't care.
 
 
 
 
 
 
So I haven't posted for some time.

Lots going on.

I was pretty sick at right after Comic Con.
The H1N1 is a suspect.
I actually wound up at the DR.
Where I found out the results of a test I had done back in December of last year.

So I am off to the Dr again today.
It would seem I have a large cyst on my left ovary and a major fibroid putting pressure on my uterus.
The fibroid doesn't worry me, Mom and all her sisters had them, so did granny. No biggie.

However...not sure I want to hear more about the ovary.
I mean if there's a problem sure, catch it now...well, eight months later but now.
and you know me...can't not look....had to go on line and scare myself by doing research.
Weirdest symptom...shoulder pain.
hummph...who knew that this pain I've had for many months could be related to an ovarian cyst?
It's even on the same side.

I guess I'll have more info later today.
Anyone else been through this cyst thing?



 
 
 
 
 
 
OK...Gayle...


Off the top of your head, name ten of your favourite Movie Moments. i.e.: When Jaws pops out of the water
They don't have to be your top ten, just whatever randomly pops into your head (that way you know they stuck with ya!)
If they're self explanatory, booyah. if not, tell us why it's so memorable/well loved to you.


1.Ghostbusters...when they light up the proton packs in the elevator for the first time..Venkman and Spengler back into the corner when they hit on for Stantz...as if that would save them if it exploded...funniest thing EVER ! ! !
Dr Ray Stantz: You know, it just occurred to me that we really haven't had a successful test of this equipment.
Dr. Egon Spengler: I blame myself.
Dr. Peter Venkman: So do I.
Dr Ray Stantz: Well, no sense in worrying about it now.
Dr. Peter Venkman: Why worry? Each one of us is carrying an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back.


2.Ghostbusters...Seeing the Stay Puft Marshmellow man for the first time as a Giant.
Dr. Peter Venkman: We've been going about this all wrong. This Mr. Stay Puft's okay! He's a sailor, he's in New York; we get this guy laid, we won't have any trouble!

3.Seeing the BIG Spaceship in Close Encounters.

4. Twister...the "Where's my Truck " scene.

5. War Wagon with John Wayne...any scene with the whole war wagon brigade of running horses.

6. Gone with the Wind : " You should be Kissed and often." *Sigh* me me me

7. Demolition Man..."Salt is bad for you, hence, it is illegal."  the way our new govt is going...need I say more?

8.Happy Texas: Bill Macy dancing the Texas two step with Jeremy Northam, hysterical ( I so agee with this Gayle)

9. Sea Biscuit: The final race scene in slow motion...WOW.

10.Aliens II : "Game over Man...Game over". Bill Paxton is so great in panic mode. I think I use this quote in real life at least once a month.

the book meme that's been going around-

Rules-

Don’t take too long to think about it. Fifteen books you’ve read that will always stick with you. First fifteen you can recall in 15 minutes. Copy the instructions into your own note.

timing...

The Giant all color book of Fairy Tales
Black Stallion
Black Stallion Returns
Black Beauty
King of the Wind
How to Draw Horses
Clan of the Cave Bear
Valley of the Horses
The Crystal Cave
The Hollow Hills
The Last Enchantment
Vulcan
Jurassic Park
The Mists of Avalon
The Splinter of the Mind's eye

I see a  theme....

5 minutes...I've read every one of these many times.

The Black Stallion I  must have read 50x
I completely destroyed a copy of how to draw horses I used it so much.
I still have the original copy of the Fairy tale book.
I actually read the Last Enchantment by Mary Stewart first and then had to go back and read them all...even the Darkest Day.
I have lost track of now many times I have read the Cave bear Series.

I could have come up with 50 books in the 15 minutes if I could type that fast.
I read A LOT. ...and I love to reread books. It's very relaxing.
Movie books are fun...reading the new Transformer's Movie Book right now...I love Alan Dean Foster.

So who else is excited to hear the finals at American Idol tonight?

I am a Adam fan.

I like Chris's style but I just don't see him being the Star that Adam is sure to become.

I see modern Elvis every time I look at him.

I know I'm too old to be a groupie but *sigh*

I will be voting tonight.



 
 
 
 
 
 
I am back in love with my Marilyn Monroe doll.

I have a Marilyn Monroe head by Franklin Mint which I have had on a FM Liz Taylor body.
It's the best vinyl MM on the market in my opinion but the Liz body was more articulated than the original.
THEN...
I bought a Tonner Denton body.
It cam today.
I spent WAY too much time changing her clothes and taking pics!
you can see more of her pics here:
