What a week.....Whewie.....but we made it through it....YAY for us
Monday back to work in office.....and back home.....oh my Dave you seriously need to fire the "maid" because she sucks anymore.......look at that damn mess on the coffee table....someone can't even pick up after themselves.....shhhh that's me....what a story that tells....food (Dave made awesome pizza again)...meds....water...glasses...jewelry....my shoe....jelly beans...miralax cocktail.....realllyyyy what the H...sorry that's pure laziness.....poor poor Dave....
Tuesday....ahhh a day off......I have "B" for company.....enjoyed my garden as I shared on facebook regarding the angel my neighbor gave me (his wife is the one who passed away) and I have a ton of flower sprouts surrounding her...she has totally surrounded herself with flowers...so awesome...anyway....that story is old news....lol...
I did work on my St. Patty's Day shirt...I needed to add green sleeves to the shirt.....I WAS NOT going to show my "flabby" "wrinkly" arms....
tonight I start my "liquid" diet....oh yummy....thank goodness I have been taking my "miralax" to help the "prep" as it's the same one that caused all the problems last time and I have to drink it ALL in 12 hours......OMG.....nerves much!
Wednesday....back to work in office......and only liquid's today.....uggghhh....once I arrived home I felt like my world was crumbling....another insurance issue....30 minutes before I need to drink my prep.....seriously.....what a nightmare.....they need 20% of the $10,000 cost of the procedure tomorrow....I said...are you kidding me right now...and if I don't have it.....well....we don't do it....naturally knowing me it raised a TON more questions.....so now I need 20% of everything, everyday when I go to Chemo and radiation....who the fuck has that kind of money.....well...she said...that's why people go untreated.....I'm thinking so I'm suppose to just lay here in bed and let cancer eat me up.....Ah.....NO.....I will figure this out.....thanks.....after multiple phone calls to doctors and my insurance company we had some answers and were able to move forward....I just need to meet my "out of pocket" expense...I have already met my deductible.....okay...this we can figure out.....time for the drink.....YUK.....
Seemed everytime I open the frig (which is every 10 minutes) to get a glass of prep.....I keep seeing the leftover pizza Dave made......and I kept telling myself.....you can have this tomorrow when you get home....okay....I can do this.....I manage half the prep like I'm suppose to.....now my septic is in overdrive again and I can just see Dave counting pennies as it will need to be pumped one again.....uggghhh
Okay it's Thursday the big day this week.....up at 2:45 AM to finish the rest of the prep......at Banner Estrella at 6:00AM....with my supportive team....Dave and B.....I was in and out like nobodies business(stage 3 not entering outwall)......but this time....I was put under with different meds and boy did I know it.....wow....I was so out of it until the next AM....however that didn't stop my appreciate.....pizza...all's I wanted was Dave's pizza.....well when I asked for it....he just said there isn't anymore....I said what....you said there would be some left.....B couldn't of eatten all that? Dave said.....okay....I accidentally burned it in the toaster oven (it's new)....OMG....I have been dying for that pizza for two days.....sad panda I was....in Dave's defense he did say I will make you a fresh pizza right now......I said....no that's okay....I shouldn't be eating the dough anyway.....
Later that afternoon I was dozing and heard my neighbor "Joe" come to the door (the man who's wife died of cancer and the flower garden story) he brought me this beautiful flower pot and a card...
Quick story...his wife is one that didn't have insurance and had brain cancer and died two years ago.....Joe himself he fighting cancer and starts Chemo the 28th of this month....he has the kindest heart I have ever known....here he is alone battling cancer ......lost his wife to cancer...and he is bringing me and Dave each a card and a beautiful plant....he brings me something every week.....he tugs at my heart.....so yesterday...I went and bought him a nice card from Dave and I along with a balloon he could send to heaven for Linda.... as he had shared it would be two years on Friday at 3:00 pm he lost Linda.....but Joe was no where to be found at 3:00 pm...so Dave and I wrote a message for him...and launched the balloon....
Friday......work from home for one office....meeting at another.....no problem....I get up....shower....look in the mirror....OMG...what the hell are those "bags" under my eyes....I look like I had a SERIOUS night of drinking........
I go to my meeting and I update my boss with everything......(he was Sam's lawyer for many years and is like family to me) and he says.....I thought you looked the best I had seen you in months....OMG....I thought....well he is a guy....he is just saying that....then his paralegal comes in and says the same thing??? Seriously......hummmm maybe I do need prescription glasses ASAP!
Needless to say...conversing with my boss (Garvey) we were talking about the shirts I made and laughing......because Garvey had made a comment in a text conversation we had last week....tell the radiologist to aim "straight"......so of coarse knowing me again....my mind is "sick"....I said that's right....."Aim straight.....and Beam me up Scotty.....fire in the hole" OMG we died laughing....he said Taf....seriously it's so good you have the humor about this....is truly the best medicine......YUP....gottta laugh......fire in the hole......Bah ha ha ha!
So I get home and told Dave about my morning......and then thought I will take a picture of myself for a "weight" update.....for my blog
I was telling Dave how hard it was to take my own picture and he "enlightened" me that there is a feature on the phone so when you say "cheese" it will automatically take your picture..I said really....he said yup...here let me show you....
I said OMG that picture is AWFUL.... however it does show my ass getting big and you can see my boob.....he said.....yup I can SEE your ass......I looked at him.....really....did you just say that....his recovery....no Taf I mean now I can see you have an ass, it's been gone for a long time....you look good......good cover Mr. Zarra! HA!
So Friday afternoon Dave, B and myself sat on our living room floor and separated "change" YUP check out this photo...this was four years of saving (we were going to go to Hawaii)
Needless to say....this is our remainder "out of pocket" monies.......roughtly $1100.00 worth.....wooooohooooo!
Well what a week.....and now it's Saturday.....I woke up this AM not looking a whole lot better than yesterday......
and after chatting on the phone for two hours I have been "piddling" around the house....and loving it....it's a good day and I am blessed.....happy Saturday to you all.......
