Two more days and then the dreaded operation on my knee, for the third time. I'm hoping this will be it and I may have to do someone in if it doesn't work. I'm going in with a positive attitude that this will be better then the last two times. Everyone has said the doctor is the best in the hospital so I'm going with that. My friend gave me a pre-surgery CD that has wonderful calming advice on it. The studies at UC Davis proved that people that listen to this CD do better then people that don't, even if they only listen to it once.
Veteran man came at 8:45am yesterday morning and took me to breakfast. We went shopping after that for items for his house that he is redoing for him. It was his parents home and he is now making it his. He plans on living there for two more years and then moving back to Florida.
We looked at gas fireplace logs, furniture and found a very cute porcelain cane holder for his entry. He decided to purchase a bench and two chairs. Then off to the framers to get his prints matted and framed. It only took us until noon and that was including going to his house to see what he had done with his furniture placement in the living room. All in all it was a successful morning and he got a lot accomplished. He brought me back to my house and I had the rest of the day to putz around and rest.
I sent Dez the wording on a couple tee shirts I found in a catalog. I couldn't resist. One said, "the reason that Santa was Jolly was that he knew where all the bad girls live." the other for me said, "be naughty, save Santa a trip." It all sounds good to me. Ha!
Dez answered me and wanted to know if I had been naughty or nice and I said it was always nice to be naughty. Ah, Santa and his elfette. He is such a clever word master. I won't go into what else was said, but he does make me laugh.
I also heard, on Facebook, from the thirty four year old man that writes lyrics for a living and has his own company. I was conversing with him a lot a long time ago, but ended up blocking him from yahoo messenger when I thought he was getting to involved and wanted to see me. He is nice looking, six four, two hundred and seventy five pounds of muscle. Way, way to young but sure good looking. He said on Facebook that he really wanted to talk to me again. I don't think so, that is just what I need in the mix, a child.
Also on Facebook a man popped up that had contacted me a long time ago. He wants to meet and says he is very respectful and loves to laugh. At least he is older, but again, not my type......I need to focus on me right now and I know that. It is interesting how these guys come back though and at least gives me hope that should Dez leave for Marrakesh for years I will have choices.
My nephew, who passed away in a car accident over four years ago, best friend, who lives in Tahoe sent me a comment on Facebook too. He and my nephew would come out almost every summer to stay with me when they were little boys. We have always kept in touch and I consider him my third nephew. He is such a great guy. He sent me lots of love and I'm so impressed with him. He is now a fitness instructor and looks terrific. I wish him a wonderful life, he deserves it.
So, today is a packing day for the hospital and re-hab center in case I go there. My doctor seems to think I will be coming home after the operation. We'll see.
Happy Saturday!
