Hey Readers,
Watching the Water Boy right now that is where the title of this blog comes from. One of my favorite parts of the movie is when Henry Winkler tells Adam Sandler about his momma not letting him get a tattoo of Roy Orbison and then he says that famous line... "What momma don't know, won't hurt her..." And then he pulls down his pants and shows the tattoo of Roy Orbison on his butt cheek It gets me every time! On a more serious note...my birthday wasn't the greatest I've ever had but it was a switch up from every other year! So I guess it's good for a change LOL! I got home from work at 3:00pm and by 5:30pm I was in the hospital. Didn't get discharged until 10:30pm. I won't disclose why but just know that I am ok...at least I think I am...so far. I am still waiting for some test results to be returned and per the usual you always have follow up appointments. So...yeah...I didn't even get to eat my cake on my actual birthday but I should be thankful that I was able to come home and eat it all. Just remember folks take care of yourself and your body. You only have one and I don't mean to preach but you never know when your last day is. Every day truly is a blessing and just live it like it is your last. Be in the moment. I don't want you to look back and have regrets in life. As I laid in the bed crying I thought of all the things I still wanted to do in life. I always get emotional anytime I have to go to the hospital - which is rare - because by that point I have reached my breaking point of pain or discomfort and I know something is seriously wrong with my body. I like to think I can deal with a lot of pain. Another thing that amazed me was my doctors bedside manner. Cold as ice, didn't have time for me (meaning didn't have time to review my results with me, check in on me, or stayed around long enough for me to ask any questions, wasn't listening to me, it was obvious she didn't care) she just completely blew me off. Don't get me wrong I don't need baby-ed by no one, especially not a doctor, but I would've at least liked it she would have stuck around long enough for me to ask any questions. I mean after all I will be getting charged both times she came in and she was only in there for a minute or two but I'll be getting charged out the butt for that when the bill comes. Even through all the testing she put me through I never heard how any of them were until the end and even then she only told me how two of them went and I had had more than just two done. Not only that let me also add that she snapped at me in a nasty way because I couldn't remember the name of the doctor in the second that she asked me. I think I was so taken back by how she was with me that I couldn't remember the answer. It bothers me because I was nothing but kind to not only her but to all of my nurses and every employee that came in my room. I even went as far to ask every person how their day was going. Because I know they've have a hard couple years and that not every person coming in is nice to them. Even my nurse made a comment to me about not taking it to heart because that is just how she is. So it was sad to hear she is like with others, but a comfort to know it wasn't just me. I don't want you to take this the wrong way at all that I am "knocking on anyone" because I certainly do not want it to come off that way. I simply wanted to share this experience with you and to let you know try not to take it personally. I know usually you are in a fragile and emotional state when you enter a hospital because you don't feel good / are in pain but just know that if you are kind to someone (anyone) know it is not your fault why are they treating you negatively. Chances are you didn't do a thing wrong. Same with bullying. Chances are you didn't do anything wrong for a person to bully another. Sending my love && well wishes to all of you! Stay safe out there && as always, I appreciate ya! Hello Readers!
I hope you all had a great holiday weekend!! I can still smell the hot dogs grilling and the firework smoke! It doesn't matter how old I get I will always want a sparkler in each of my hands on the fourth of July! And speaking of birthdays mine is tomorrow!! EKKKKK!! Now I know you guys haven't heard a peep from me since like...last Wednesday...but I totally have a good excuse why - I went to Virginia! :) SURPISE! I brought you back some goodies in the form of some new photos so you could see what I saw! I love that place, so clean and everyone is super friendly! I love how much they care about their history too! It is reflected in their towns, their street signs, their plantation signs, monuments, restaurant names...I could go on and on! It's just incredible honestly! Also accidentally deleted my contacts and photos from phone but deleting my account straight off my phone - thank goodness for the cloud that's all I have to say! I was trying to delete my email accounts off of their to save some room for the new photos I wanted to take and whoops clicked the wrong thing! I did some updates to my website today - I updated the photo hobby page and uploaded new pictures of my trip to show you guys from when we visited Jamestown! So if you are into history and historical sites check it out! But not only that I think I got some neat pictures to be viewed - they running on the slideshow per the usual - with my goofy captions that are semi important ;) Also I created a countdown page - if you hover over the books menu at the top of the page you'll see the drop down for Unforeseen with a little arrow - hover over Unforeseen and it will bring a drop down to the right for access to that page! Basically it is going to be how many days until the finalists / winners are announced for the various contests that Unforeseen has been entered in. There will be a good bit of them so I thought what better way for me to track it and for you to see it then on the website! Woot! Sometime later on in the week I will start working on the newsletter for July to get ready for send out next week - so if you want in on that don't forget to sign up! Stay safe out there && as always, I appreciate ya! |
