Ahhhhh
What an interesting few months it has been.
First the jail part.
Well, I didn't actually go to jail. But I was pulled over for blowing off a stop sign in the very small metropolis of Double Oak, Texas. Why was I in Double Oak? Because I decided to take the long way home from the grocery store to see the miniature donkey farm.
Have you ever seen a little donkey?
SO cute.
Anyhow I got a nice 210.00 ticket for missing the stop sign near the little donkeys. I've been told by others this is a common occurrence and they probably make a decent amount of money on that particular stop sign.
My sister and I thought perhaps we could earn the money back by selling t shirts outside the courtroom (which FYI only meets the third Thursday of the month at 6pm) that read:
"I paid 210.00 to see a little ass in Double Oak Texas"
Now for the do not pass go....
Living life after cancer means being hypersensitive to any sign the cancer beast has returned. Recently I started to experience urinary frequency and pain. I tried to ignore it and hoped maybe it would go away. But then realized...yes, this is one of *those* symptoms associated with my cancer. So I went in for more testing.
It's a really interesting day when finding out you have a UTI is great news...as it isn't cancer and I'm not neurotic.
Now the 200.00...
I have been plugging along with filling my breast expanders. I think I am close to where I want to eventually be. I have an appointment with my plastic surgeon in a week to confirm and go over the details for surgery.
While I am happy about all of that, even though I feel like I have flotation devices embedded in my chest right now..
There is a great sadness on my horizon.
We placed my mother on hospice care 2 weeks ago. She has fought a valiant battle against COPD for several years. I can only hope and pray we can make her as comfortable as possible in the time she has left.
