Where's Foxy.........

He's out in the middle of nowhere.

If you have teenagers, they may have watched a show called "Charlie & Lola." My daughter loved that show. She was five at the time. Foxy was Lola's toy fox.m One day she lost him "out on the middle of nowhere." If you asked her where Foxy was, she would say, in her tiny five year old voice,l with her best British accent "He's out in the middle of nowhere."

That's how I've felt these past two and a half months.  Like I was stuck out in the middle of nowhere. I had Achilles tendon repair on July 6th. I'm apparently clumsy as Hell because I fell trying to go to the bathroom and put my foot down. No big deal. There was no pain involved so I didn't think anything about it. On July 11th, Mr. Unhappy Gallbladder came out. Cool. No pain. I saw my Podiatrist who was unhappy that I fell but understanding. wasn't sure about the whole situation. Followed up with him a week later and we decided to do an MRI to make sure everything was copacetic. Guess what, torn Achilles tendon again. Back to surgery I go. I have had the same Podiatrist for 16 years.  That's a long time considering I only had my OB Gyn Doctor for seven.

Second surgery and I'm good to go. Until I get home. Here's another visual. Remember Rowan and Martin's Laugh In? Sad day for you if you don't. One of the Actor's was Arte Johnson. He was a little man. He would ride around on a tricycle and just fall over side ways, with no assistance. That's what I did. Just fell over sideways. I am apparently the clumsiest person this side of the Pecos.

I laid there on the ground and said "somebody get me a pillow." My husband said "If we leave you out here, the earwigs will have engulfed you by the morning." Better to be engulfed by earwigs then face the utmost humiliation when I had to tell my Doctor I fell again. He was very kind. The MRIK look good so fingers crossed.

Back to work I went and I have been exhausted. I have been blessed with a new grandson in July and a new granddaughter two days ago. I must have some purpose after all.

I'll  be doing an actual nail post next week.

Thanks for stopping by.

Yes, I know it's been two months since my last post. My health issues have carried over for two months and I have been exhausted. I was finally feeling better and I lost someone very dear to me. When I was born. I was blessed with amazing parents, my Nana and my Aunt Wanda.  Wanda has always treated me like her own. I spent every minute of my childhood that I could at Wanda and Nana's house. It was home to me. My grandmother taught me how to iron, cook and sew among other things. I lost her when I was 11. Both parents passed away in 2003. Wanda was always there for me. She was like a second mom to me. She helped me with anything she could.  She babysat my six kids when I was a single parent going to school. She treated my kids like they were her own. She was an amazing woman. She worked at Grand Coulee Dam when it was being built, she traveled and she truly loved life. She was a Christian and she devoted her life to Jesus Christ. Back in July when I had surgery on my foo...

Hell's bells!!!!

Oops.... I didn't realize it had been two weeks since my last post. Since I apparently live in the new Arctic Circle, all I've had time to do is stay warm. My daughter has missed five days of school due to the weather. That's unheard of where I'm from. When I was in High School, I can't remember ever having a show day.  Maybe that was before Global Warming.  Who coul d tell. And is Global warming really a thing? Or is it something the Government made up to scare the Hell out of normal people like myself?  On that note....away we go.   This is the look I came up with for New Year's Eve. Did I go out? Nope. Did I have a Gourmet dinner party for 20 at  my home? Again, nope. I never do  things like have dinner parties. I just thought it was New Year's Eve-ish looking. Yes I know that isn't correct Grammar. And no, I don't care. If people can say "A'ight or turnt." I can say  Eve-ish. Get with the program teachers. Start teaching c...

Soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of fur.......

Happy kitty, sleepy kitty, purr, purr purr. If you watch the Big Bang Theory, you know where this comes from. I don't. But my daughter does. When I saw this polish on the Super Nails Etsy site, I had to get it for her. Me, being a cat lover, I had to get one for myself as well. Here is the link. https://www.etsy.com/shop/supernails This is a polish that has a sheer pink base. It is full of pink, grey and white tiny spots. It's not glitter, because it doesn't sparkle. The think that made me want to buy it is that it has white, pink and grey......kitty heads in it. I thought it was really cute. Let it begin: Base coat...check. Pro-Fx nail Concealer in Light/Medium. I don't know if I mentioned it but it come is Medium/Dark as well. One coat of this. Polish...check. If you aren't familiar with glitter type polish, it's applied differently than regular polish. For  me, the first coat is the base coat for the color. each following coat that I put on, I am pl...
