 &gt;It&#8217;s over and I&#8217;m sad.  I think there are no more days off until school is out!  Ick!  But I had a great week with my granddaughter!  She&#8217;s a good kid&#8230;very funny.</p>
<p>Yesterday, before we took her back home, we went and saw a production called &#8220;At the Cross&#8221;.  It was an incredible show, with pyrotechnics, real animals and an amazing sound system.  The program lasted 3 hours!  But with the modern twist on the story, it was really good.  I laughed and cried.  I was really impressed.  The minister played Peter and narrated most of the story.  He involved the audience and was very captivating.  The last show is tonight but if it back next year, you should really check it out.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s been a week since surgery, I no longer feel like I am dying.  I am just wondering now, why I thought I needed to do this.  A couple of days ago, I would have paid <strong>anybody</strong>to reverse it and now I&#8217;m thinking &#8220;Ok that wasn&#8217;t so bad&#8221;.  I have had three surgeries for this breast reconstruction&#8230;THREE!  I hope there isn&#8217;t a need for a fourth cos I&#8217;m not sure I could do it.  There are many. many more stitches this time, much more pain and very limited movement!  My dogs are mad at me since I have baby gated them out of my bedroom.  I know they are mad because they are peeing on my new wood floor.  Pugs are such spiteful little things.  They are feeling neglected and I feel bad.  I&#8217;m afraid to be jumped on or pawed at.  Poor babies, they will probably gain even more weight since out of guilt, I am giving out more treats.</p>
<p>I have thought about why I have done this and I&#8217;m still not sure.  It&#8217;s not because of vanity I don&#8217;t think, after 15 years with one boob&#8230;I was dealing alright with it.  My first thought was, my insurance will cover all of it, why wouldn&#8217;t I go for it?  My second thought was &#8220;Wow, I could actually wear a swimsuit that doesn&#8217;t have a fake boob sewn into it.&#8221;  (So ok, it was all about vanity)  But I am so greatful to the people who made this all possible .  My friends and family, who have encouraged me every step of the way and never once asked &#8220;Why?&#8221;  I am thankful for my husband who doesn&#8217;t quite understand why I found all of this necessary but has been there to help me get up, get dressed, take a shower and even helped me dye my hair.  My entire family has listened to me whine and complain and cry.  After talking to them, they have made me feel loved, strong and not such a big baby!</p>
<p>I am so blessed to have such a wonderful support team, whom I could not live without.  I love you guys.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tomorrow is my big surgery day!  I have waited 3 months for this.  Actually 20 years but who&#8217;s counting?!?  Eight months ago I started the process of breast reconstruction. Hmmmm..Had I only known, I&#8217;m not sure I would have begun this.  But it has been quite the experience!  Who knew that medically technology could do all this!  And who knew that it took so long!  This will be my third surgery for this and the last.  It has been quite interesting and I have met a lot of very nice, and compassionate people, who actually care how I look, so it&#8217;s all good.  I am excited&#8230;for it to be over with, to have two boobs again and to be able to wear clothes and have them fit right!   And to wear a swim suit!  It&#8217;s been years!  I am sorely dreading the IV&#8217;s.  Needles and I don&#8217;t get along, tho I have nine tattoos.  The tenth one comes tomorrow when the drs create a nipple!  It is very traumatic for me to have an iv.  It takes them forever and dozens of tries to find a frickin&#8217; vein.  Several years of chemo have totally blown my veins.  After a lot of cussing and threats, I know they will finally get a vein and then it will be a breeze after that!  So next time you see me&#8230;.check out the boobs!  LOL!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love this time of year!  I love all the old movies they show at the holidays!  Right now I&#8217;m watching Christmas in Connecticut and Holiday Affair comes on next!  I planned my whole day around this&#8230;crazy I know!  The very best of course is 24 hours of A Christmas Story!!! I would watch all 24 hours if possible.  I never tire of it, I can quote practically the whole show!  It makes me laugh!  It&#8217;s just a shame that they are not showing all of the old Christmas movies that I like but I guess maybe there aren&#8217;t enough people who enjoy them like me.  I have yet to see Holiday Inn and I love that!  Bing Crosby is the best!  Fred Astaire and all the dancing!  Playing Christmas music in the car and watching old movies, gets me into the holiday spirit.  Then it is zapped when I go shopping!  Jeez, the stores are packed.  I get clastrophbic  just trying to get thru the aisles.  I&#8217;ve lucked out tho this year, and haven&#8217;t had to do alot of store shopping.  But I will be going out tomorrow for last minute things, so say a prayer for me!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s snowing and it&#8217;s beautiful!  Of course it&#8217;s only beautiful because I can stay inside and not have to get out in it!  That would be a whole other different story!   The snow is falling and I have been curled up on the couch watching old movies,  worried to death that my dad will attempt to shovel out something.  Even tho my wonderful, thoughtful brother has already done the shoveling, my dad is just so stubborn, he would be out there doing it again.  He fell again the other day and is in a lot of pain.  But he keeps going and doing!  I heard he got out the ladder and was going to attempt to put the angel on the top of the tree!  My mom came unglued and walked out of the room!  Amazingly enough, dad stopped and put the ladder away.  I feel like the child who has become the parent.  I scold, they very politely listen then go do what they want.  I guess, at least I&#8217;ve had my say&#8230;it makes me feel better!  They are amazing people and I love them to death!  But I worry!</p>
<p>On a lighter note&#8230;my dogs love the snow!  Mugs loves eating it!  He&#8217;s about like a dozer, opening his mouth and scooping up huge mouthfuls!  Katie is a little bit more of a priss about it.   And Pugs does his business and scoots right back in!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s too bad this snow couldn&#8217;t have happened during the week then I could have had another snow day!  Oh well! </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have a bad attitude&#8230;I know I have a bad attitude&#8230;.I can&#8217;t help it!  It&#8217;s called my job!  I don&#8217;t believe in what I do any more.  I work at a day school for behavior disorder kids.  The program has gone down hill over the past few years.  I have worked there for eleven years and I have never seen it as bad as it is now!  The program is no longer working and the kids are running the school.  We are short of staff and are told we won&#8217;t be getting any help.  That puts all of us in a dangerous situation, 8 hours a day!  There is nothing we can do to help these kids&#8230;we are no longer allowed.  At best, we are glorified babysitters.  It sucks&#8230;it&#8217;s sad.  Over the weekend one of my fourth grader&#8217;s pulled a knife on his step brother and was taken into custody.  But just for the night.  He&#8217;s back home tonight, with no consequences.  A fourth grader!  Good Lord!  I&#8217;m tired of having my hands tied and having to watch all this happen, knowing it will happen again&#8230;different kid different circumstances but the same ending.  We are enabling America&#8217;s next most wanted!</p>
