My leukemia's back.

When I was under the Haze during my transplant....I had to have a babysitter.
It's was some older Philippine woman....I remember telling the nurse to watch her she was sneaking puppies into the hospital..... And she was hiding them in the box with all the latex gloves..... The nurse told me she'd watch her......I was totally serious.....

My hubby thought someone was stealing tacos from under his bed then he started to sing Michael row the boat ashore which was hilarious I shouldn't be mean but it was funny

I told the doctor that it was cold and if he was getting into bed with me he needed to hurry up and do it because my feet needed to be warmed up.

Isn't it illegal to have a pet muscovie in Florida..... As they are considered an evasive species?

Not that I'm aware of. They're everywhere here, and I've never heard of it being illegal to own them. They can pretty much be found at any body of water, especially during the winter. It's fairly easy to tame them down, and catch them. Abusing them is a major crime, though.

Good morning Team Rachel. Have a blessed day.

All I have to do is buy the stuff, have them deliver it, and set it out there. Even if he tries to ignore it at first, it will drive him crazy, so he'll put it up.

Oh, man! I'd almost forgotten about the time I did that!! Ken had been talking about building a deck to replace this awful, ugly, old concrete porch we had. It was awkward to get into the trailer...steps on both sides of it with a platform at the door that made it awkward to even get in the house, and the side was painted orange! Every year, starting in 1996. Some years he'd go so far as to drag out the graph paper and draw out what he envisioned. Then nothing. Year after year. And the funny thing was his design barely changed from year to year.

So in 2005, I got tired of it. I found his latest design, went down to Cowley Lumber and asked Strom to put together everything on that list that we'd need, from lumber to screws and set up delivery. Now, you have to remember that this is Cowley - business is done a little more casually here. The next afternoon Ken and I were outside puttering and the lumber truck pulled up. The guys started unloading the materials, just putting it inside the fence. Ken looked at me and said "What the he11 is that all about?" I just whacked another branch off the tree and said, "It's our deck. They have the invoice, pay them. Here's the deal - we will build it ourselves. You will make clear what you want me to do - none of this 'Diane, hand me the...that....over there.....oh, never mind I'll get it myself' stuff. There will be no arguments, and if you get crabby I'm done for the day." We built that deck in a weekend, and it's still solid and we enjoy it very much!

And here is one: My WWII traveling partner got a tick in a very delicate area. He went to the emergency room. Perched on an examining table, doctor on a stool between his legs working on the organ, nurse enters the room, and my friend says, "It's okay, it's okay. He assures me that he is a doctor." Nurse did an about turn laughing hysterically as she exited the room.

Good morning, Team Rachel. May we all have a fun and healing day.
