The evolution of man
I had my 4-day post-op appointment yesterday. My goal this week is to learn to stand up straight again. Right after surgery it is physically impossible to do anything other than hunch over like a caveman. A walker would have been nice. Shopping carts...

Tummy: tucked
Thanks for all of your well wishes, emails, posts, etc. The surgery went well and I'm home now. I haven't seen anything yet, I'm covered with "stuff". I can take the stuff off tomorrow and so I'll report on the big reveal. The...

The family pet
I feel so sorry for our cat. Or the cats and dogs of every family out there that has children. Prior to our kids, our pets WERE our kids. I remember petting my cat for hours on end, buying him special food, talking to him like he was a child. I even told...

People watching
I just love people watching. I especially like to try and "figure out" who they are, what they do, what their "story" is. This weekend I was in Target. It was one of those late-night trips after the kids go to bed. As an aside, isn't...

The baby Ben whisperer
As you all know, Ben is a stubborn little man. He will not be detered from what he wants, no matter the cost, no matter the amount of screaming. He'll stand and scream for as long as it takes for us to give up. He often can't be comforted, not...

Plastic surgery, the final countdown
My surgery is one week from today. One week! I know I've been posting a lot lately about my fears. I do think they're valid fears, valid enough that they may stop some people from moving forward, but not me. I have to say, my fears really pale...

Hallway games
Most nights, after bathtime, we get the boys jammied up and play "hallway games". We have a long hallway in our upstairs that the boys just love to run back and forth in. One of us sits at each end of the hallway and the boys will run to each...

Plastic surgery scars, just me?
OK, now the nerves are starting to hit. When we're nervous about pain we often find our minds wandering to other, less tangible, perhaps less logical fears. While doing some research yesterday, I came across a new book on the market about plastic...

Distracted driving
Most studies say that teenagers are the worst drivers on the road. I beg to differ. I was talking recently with a group of moms at a birthday party. We were discussing how we all have pulled that certain muscle in the right side of our back from twisting...

I haven't got time for the pain
I had to have my bloodwork for my surgery done today. It took three very painful sticks in three locations (with lots of digging around) to get enough blood for all of the tests. You see, I have terrible veins. And when I say terrible, I mean horrible...

Pre-op, post-savings
For those of you following along in my plastic surgery journey , this installment #3, the Pre-op. I had my pre-operative appointment with the surgeon yesterday. I was reminded why I chose this doctor, and that was comforting. The staff was wonderful,...

American pride
I voted today. If you participate in any message board across the county, you probably saw this posted more times than you could count. Why do we each feel the need to let everyone know we voted? I'm pretty sure everyone voted. I'm not sure "I...

Daylight Savings Time is not what it used to be
I used to love Daylight Savings Time. When I was in high school, college and my 20's I relished it. In college, we used to have a big celebration at 2 a.m. in the bars when they turned the clocks back an hour and we were given an extra hour to cap...
