ANOTHER FRIDAY IN HOOSIERVILLE

Well, here we are again, Dearies...doing our thing in the d-chair:


A new tech was assigned to my chair today, and the poor thing was very upset about having to struggle so with Mr Buzzy. I tried to reassure her that it wasn't a reflection of her skills, but the poor thing took it all very personally. Apparently she is accustomed to getting yelled at by the nasty old lady in Pod Two, so when a patient just sits quietly and breathes through the pain and pitiful tears flow silently down her chubby cheeks, it's upsetting.

(I'll never understand that...a patient who comes in here and feels compelled to abuse the very people who are keeping us alive. And they're doing it for very little money and under ungodly stressful circumstances. Yes, we're in pain and don't feel good most of the time, and this whole experience is generally unpleasant....but it's AMBULATORY LIFE SUPPORT for pity's sakes....not the Ritz Carlton Day Spa.)

(End of rant.)

Good progress on Pretty Pumpkins last night:

I finally feel like I have achieved stitchy peace with my "kit", 28ct Picture This Plus linen, and enjoying one project at a time. It must be an age thing, because I look back at this here blog from years past, and it seemed like I was constantly flitting from thing to thing in search of the perfect basket, project, rotation, and whatnot. Now I feel like I am truly enjoying this thing of ours fully and completely and happily.

We were going to order in for dinner, but I got inspired and cooked instead:


Crab cakes, roasted red pepper aioli, mashed potatoes, and green beans.  Oh....it was all so good, and I am happy to report that my on weight today was within acceptable levels. Woo hoo,indeed!

So that's the Friday report from here in Hoosierville, my friends. I'll leave you with a request, please. I got word last night that my goddaughter Sara (who was scheduled to get married on October 2nd of next year) is getting married on Sunday instead. Her fiancé's mom is ending her battle with breast cancer, and the kids decided to move up the nuptials so she could attend. It will be a small family ceremony, but perfect, I'm sure. If you would...please say a little prayer for them for peace and love as they navigate through this.

Happy weekend to one and all! Do something fun and come tell me all about it!
