Forgive them for they know not what they do...

We voted and had our piece. What happens now has to be answered for in 2 years. I find it fucking amazing that everyone has forgotten all about G.W. Bush and the hell hole HE ran our country into. His poor daddy was slighted by Saddam Hussein and he had to rectify the situation by invading a country that Did Not fly planes into our buildings, or pentagon. Oh wait, he needed more oil and gas to make his family richer. Remember the bail-out we got when GWB was in office, it was called an incentive and everyone was delighted with that. Let's not forget the dumb ass former vice-president who should never ever go hunting again.
Poor Barack Obama who had to come along and pick-up after GWB and now gets the blame for the country being in the shape it is. It takes money to make money, and everybody is hungry for the green.
Andrew Jackson was a shyster president too! Every president will have his weakness and his strength.
At the end of the day its really about how much bullshit they can make us believe all the while playing a damn shell game in Washington.
They say you shouldn't talk about politics or religion in mixed company because you never know who you will offend. Ignorance is offensive to me, and it is not an excuse. You can't pay bills with marbles.

Super Tuesday

I will start with good morning to all the VOTING people out there. You notice I didn't say Republican or Democrat? That is because the side you pick is between you and the booth your in to vote. I say good morning to the rest of the world who choose not to vote too. Your opinion(s) do not carry much weight if you do not put your two cents worth in by voting. Enough said about that.
I am anticipating seeing the plastic surgeon again next week for "Assessment". I have already assessed myself and I say I am ready to get these hard plastic shells out of my chest and bring on the soft, squeezable permanent ones! I have had a multitude of people say to me "You look good, can't tell you even had breast cancer". I say thanks and walk on, I can tell I had breast cancer. Every damn time I get dressed the reminder is still there. I am better with it in my head now, no more depression. I just wished I was better with it in my soul. That is going to take time to fix. I am still the luckiest woman on earth. I have some awesome girlfriends and some fantastic family members and my co-workers well, I wouldn't trade anything in the world for them either. Thank you, you know who you are.

Lost and found-Hah!

Have you ever misplaced something and tried with all your might to find it. You get some jackass who says, "Don't worry, it will be in the last place you look". Well, I looked in all the last places and it's not there! That means that it is truly lost. I appreciate everyone helping me look but, it was fruitless. Folks who make things with their hands will understand what I'm going through. I started a quilt top on 10/30/2000 and for whatever reason I set it aside and worked on something else. Now in the past 10 years I have shown it to several people whose opinions mean something to me. I know I have touched it in the last 10 months or so. It is of no value to anyone but me so I know it was not stolen. I got to thinking, maybe I'm supposed to start another and not complete that one. So, I did.
Good thing about all this, I have a clean, organized closet. I threw out old, unused clothing and shoes from the freaking 80's! Yes, I admit I still had parachute pants (What was I thinking?) and Keapa shoes-Yuk. Anyway, I wish I had friends who could sew. We could do our own American Quilt movie. I will not give up my quest, I know it is somewhere to be found.

Cowboys vs. Texans

We are having a practice Thanksgiving Dinner today. We have a turkey with dressing, fresh green beans. We are watching the Cowboys and so far so good. I was sitting down enjoying my first beer of the day and me being me just happened to notice something in the game. Those of you who taped or Tivo'd the game can go back and check this is a fact. Player #21, Jenkins I believe well, he apparently does not, I repeat does not wear a cup. I know this because the referee called a penalty- too many balls on the field! You could see the whole situation and by the way, he dresses to the left. I don't normally search for such a sight but, I couldn't help myself it was like BAM! in your face. I noticed Roy Williams doing something great too! He caught the ball and made a touchdown- way to go Roy. Please do not think by me conversing about the Dallas Cowboys that I have "flip-flopped" away from my Washington Redskins or Kansas City Chiefs. Amazing things happen every day.

Slow & Easy Weekend

This weekend started off fantastic and it has stayed that way- so far. Friday my daughter and I went to the Studio Movie Grill and saw the movie "You Again". People, I am no Siskle & Ebert but, that movie was hilarious. If you survived high school and was not the "quarterback" or the "cheerleader" you will relate to this movie. Oh yeah, Tony Romo was there too. I don't know that he was seeing the same movie as us, we saw as we were walking out. Thanks to Brittney for taking me out. First time I've been anywhere other to work and home since the first week of July. Joshua, ,my son is learning to drive (watch out!), just kidding he pays attention. He may not listen but, he looks like he is. Today, we are having a practice Thanksgiving Dinner, yes you heard me right.
I love the fall, not the winter. This is such a beautiful time on earth right now. This is where we get snuggle moments with our significant others. I'm snuggling with my new "lady lumps" and baby they require a lot of room!

Ends justify the means..

I saw the oncologist yesterday and she gave me good words. I don't have to look at her again for 5 months- yes I am cancer free! Now we will get used to dancing with each other twice a year for the next 10 years. I know I can fight anything and I do mean anything so, bring it on! I've said it before and I will say it again, I am grateful for my experience and thankful for my lessons. Now, all I have to do is keep seeing the "I'm going to pump you up" doctor a*k*a plastic surgeon. I totally believe it's important to have your own floatation devices-lol. I have never been able to swim so I need extra air in my tubes, oops I mean boobs! My race is almost over and I cannot wait until I can show everyone my trophy!

Tough as Nails

You ever have one of those days where you just don't give a shit? I seem to be in that mood. I believe hearing the word cancer changes the way we as humans view our own mortality. You have these "Billy Bob Bad asses" that nothing can tear down. Then you have these folks that fold at the sneeze of others. What the hell? I for one have never been able to back down from a challenge and I have never ran from a fight in my life. Mom always said, you can run but you cannot hide. I can dig that, only because I knew what my mom was trying to relay to me. I cannot run fast but, dammit I can run far. I bet my moccasins are really worn out with everyone walking in my place. Cancer has really messed with my mind so I guess from now on I will be running for my life. Re-evaluation is awesome, I encourage everyone to step back and re-evaluate your place in life. I am not guaranteed tomorrow so, therefore I make the best of today.
