I'm back... sorta. We were on vacation for about ten days... actually got back a few days ago. We went camping in the Okanagan... that's in British Columbia for anyone not familiar with the area. No trips down to the States because of hubby's surgery this year. Everything went okay... wasn't the most fun i ever had in my life. As you can see i'm not a lot happier than when i left.

Hubs Update
We found out yesterday that hubby probably has sarcoidosis. The docs are sending the samples away to yet another expert just to be sure. It's a weird rare autoimmune disease. There's no cure and i believe they mess around with a variety of drugs to try and treat it... mostly steroids. I think it's more life altering than fatal. So now we wait to find out how they want to go susihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-789069312002-07-13T10:12:00.000-07:002010-03-10T10:16:49.160-08:00
The carpet looks great. I'm surprised... was starting to think i wouldn't like it at all. Haven't put a damn thing back except for my pc. :))
Did the deep water running class again yesterday. It is so great to be out swimming... wish our summers were longer. The synchro class was yesterday night too... it's a lot of fun.

Another baking hot day. :)) Did the swim lessons again this morning and then took my 8 yr old for breaky cause she missed the pancake breakfast at the pool yesterday. I couldn't be bothered to find another stampede breaky partly due to the heat and partly cause i'd rather eat oatmeal and fruit than pancakes and sausage two days in a row.

DO YOU KNOW?
Your body is made almost entirely of 27 chemical elements (though it may also
contain traces of some of the 78 others in the periodic table). The chief ingredients,
however, are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. Which of these four elements
accounts for most of your weight?
Oxygen=2/3 of the body's weight
Carbon=18%
Hydrogen=10%

Great day today. Lotsa sun and water. Did an hour long deep water running class at the outdoor pool i've been taking my daughter to every morning for swim lessons. A friend i run into at the end of the swim lessons decided to go too. Half way thru she looked at me and said, "I'M NEVER CALLING THESE OLD LADY CLASSES AGAIN"... lol... that pretty well sums it up.

The Tour de France is on.
Lance Armstrong and his team are favored to win. I've never paid much attention to the tour until i read Lance Armstrong's book last year...It's Not About the Bike. It's one of my favorite books.

It's been almost a week since hubs surgery and he's doing well He's still swollen in the face especially around his eyes. He's sleeping a lot but otherwise he's up and about. Hasn't left the house of course. Guess we miss the stampede this year... that'll save us a few bucks. I'm off to swimming lessons again with my 8 yr old.

The weather was yucky today. Not very good for taking swim lessons at an outdoor pool. Managed to squeeze in a walk on the hill with my 8 yr old in between rain.
Been thinking of getting reregistered as an RN lately. Not really because i'm dying to work... quite the opposite really... but i may need it and wish i had it one day so i may as well think of doing it now while i have the time. susihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-786958482002-07-08T11:53:00.000-07:002010-03-10T10:16:49.193-08:00

Hubs came home today...a day earlier than expected. He's doing good. He's even more swollen in the face and neck today. Both his eyes are half swollen shut. He's kinda headachy and tired but otherwise not too bad.

Joined a synchro swimming class yesterday evening for the summer. It's a pretty laid back class for adults... it was alot of fun. It runs every friday 8pm-9pm. It's at one of the local outdoor pools which made it more appealing to me. I spent way too much time at indoor pools as a kid racing etc and i haven't liked the atmosphere in them for years.

Hubs surgery went well yesterday. No problems... they got what they wanted. The neurosurgeon called in the afternoon when it was all over. Apparently the tissue they removed neither looks like tumor or inflammation at first glance. We were able to see him shortly after he got to the neuro icu. It's the same unit his little sister died in when she was 23 about ten years ago.

Went to the hospital at 6am this morning. There wasn't too much waiting around. We were down in the OR area by 730ish and they took hubs in by about 8am.

Tomorrow's the big day. We have to be up at 5am and be at the hospital around 630am. Surgery at 730am. Hubs has had a cold/cough the last week so they will decide after they put him out whether to do the surgery or not. If he doesn't cough too much they will do the surgery.

Friday Five
1. How often do you do laundry?
Jeez i dunno... lots. Sometimes everyday... sometimes not for days... usually depends on my mom being around cause she makes me do it... lol.
2. What's in a typical wash load?
Ugggh... clothes?
3. Front or top loader? Powder or liquid detergent?
Top loader and powder... well those little tabs... way less mess.
4. Do you use fabric susihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-778338922002-06-16T22:08:00.000-07:002010-03-10T10:18:40.089-08:00
Spent most of the weekend fixing up one of my old pc's for my dad. There was so much cr*p on it... took forever. Basically had to just save anything i wanted to keep and delete anything incriminating... :) I've been meaning to do it for quite awhile now and Father's Day motivated me to get it done finally.susihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-778175872002-06-16T13:34:00.000-07:002010-03-10T10:18:40.092-08:00
Went to see Windtalkers saturday night. It's the first movie i've seen at the theater since The Perfect Storm... and that was the first movie i'd seen in years... so that makes two in about ten years.
Well the general storyline of the movie was good, Nick Cage i always enjoy watching and i like war movies but OMG i can't take over two hours of killing and gore and blood and guts anymore.

Drove the kids to Banff friday night where i got to deposit them with my parents for another whole weekend...woooooohooooo. Both kids gone for the weekend. :)) Gotta love that.
The weather has been great. Summer has finally made it. The drive up was a lot more pleasant than last weekend but no where near as much fun cause i took the truck...ugghh.

I am so tired i can barely keep my eyes open so this will be short and sweet. Three nights in a row of 5-6hrs of sleep doesn't cut it for me... eventually it catches up. So i'm going to have to go nap which is annoying cause there's a bunch of stuff i'd really like to be doing.

Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under the trees on a summer's
day, listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the blue sky is
by no means a waste of time.

PromoGuy.net presents Monday Mission 2.23
1. Do you have a side of the bed on which you prefer to sleep? Do you sleep on that side even when traveling or does it matter?
Yup... i'm on the right side... although i think it has more to do with the right side being near the window. When travelling i don't care but i'm wondering now if i don't subconsciously take the side nearest the window. susihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-776118882002-06-11T08:23:00.000-07:002002-06-11T08:23:04.313-07:00

Hubby has his surgery July 4th. It takes about 6hrs. There's a 95% chance they will have a diagnosis after the surgery. He'll be in hospital 3-4days... pretty well out of commission for at least 2 weeks if not 4weeks... so he'll be off work for a month... (omg what am i going to do????...lol)

One of the many dinosaur displays at the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Drumheller
Due to recent viewings of the movies Jurassic Park I/II and III we almost didn't get to check out the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Drumheller.

KEEP PUTTING OFF EXERCISE?
Some people find it impossible to stick to the four-times-a-week exercise plan
recommended by many fitness experts. It's too easy to put off your workout until the
next day, and the next until you suddenly find yourself a flabby once-a-weeker. Many

I'm back to normal... still working out everyday... been about 3 weeks now. I'm +4 for poundage... which means i still have 4 of the 7.5lbs i gained when i quit smoking at the end of April to lose.

JE... the tar sands or oil sands are something different and located further north. I believe it's a SAG-D oil sands project my hubby is working on out at Christina Lake... but i'll have to ask him... i'm always hearing SAGD this... SAGD that... but after 20 yrs of listening to engineering talk i don't pay a lot of attention. It's pretty dry stuff unless you're an engineer.

Warning: Health Update
Two days ago we found out my hubby will have to go for brain surgery... or in other words they're gonna carve out a big chunk of his skull and try to go under his brain to get at the ?tumor on his optic nerve. Apparently this is a relatively new procedure and has a lot less side effects than the alternative surgery.

Suffice it to say i'm up 7.5 lbs from last summer. Accckkkkkkkkk.

Monday Mission 2.20
1. When was the last time you went out with a true love of yours? What did
you two do that made it so special?
Well assuming it's the lunatic (i use the term affectionately... most times anyway) i've been with for the last 21 yrs that would be two days ago. We cruised around town in the little Tiburon... beautiful, warm spring day (yes..spring..it finally came)... susihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-767611472002-05-20T09:26:00.000-07:002002-05-20T09:35:48.000-07:00

The Friday Five - better late than never
1. What shampoo do you use?
Nioxin... it's supposed to help grow hair back... mine was growing back anyway but it's good if you want to grow your hair as long as possible too so either way i figure i'll use it.
2. Do you use conditioner? What kind?
Yup... same stuff Nioxin.
3. When was the last time you got your hair cut?
Not a good question to susihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-767255982002-05-19T09:36:00.000-07:002002-05-19T09:52:31.000-07:00

Got a rare headache this morning... back to the brain tumor theory... no.. more likely too much coffee yesterday... nah no such thing as too much coffee for a nurse... hubby came home last night... i'll blame it on him.susihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-766239502002-05-16T09:33:00.000-07:002002-05-16T10:22:41.736-07:00
I was over at my parents yesterday having my last visit with a couple of my mom's lifelong friends... they were staying with my parents for a week while on vacation from England. I was born in England and lived there till i was 12 for anyone who doesn't know.
It's been a lot of fun visiting with them... their daughter is very similar to me and an only child as well.

It would seem i'm doing the week on week off thing when it comes to working out this week... i just haven't been getting enough sleep to get up at 6am... one week out of two is better than none i guess? :)
I have improved my eating habits though... i was getting into the... "skip breakfast...drink coffee all day routine"... not good for someone who is supposed to be on some radical cancer susihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-766219032002-05-16T08:33:00.000-07:002002-05-18T07:54:28.000-07:00

Monday Mission 2.19
1. Have you ever given someone a present you just KNEW would be "da bomb" and when they opened it you could tell they just hated it? What's the story there?
The whole present thing is a nitemare for me... i never know what anyone wants... i don't have a clue if they will like it or not... so yea i've probably given lots of presents i thought someone would love and they susihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-764951512002-05-13T07:00:00.000-07:002002-05-13T08:16:07.000-07:00
I think i've mentioned here before how there are some movies i just won't watch anymore... maybe it was on Des' blog sometime now i think about it... movies like Hannibal. Seven was a movie i sometimes wish i'd never seen even though i thought it was a good movie. I just really don't care to have in my head pictures and thoughts of some of the worst things one human being can do to another ifsusihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-764611802002-05-12T08:48:00.000-07:002002-05-12T08:48:09.803-07:00

OMG i am getting so into reading and commenting on other people's blogs... i can't believe how time consuming it can be... this could cure me of my video chat addiction finally... didn't think i'd ever see that day.susihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-763967682002-05-10T07:29:00.000-07:002002-05-10T10:41:02.000-07:00
Did i say i thought the snow would all be gone in one day a few days ago?... i think i was a little too optimistic there. The hill is still completely covered in snow. Roads are dry though so we can go back to driving like maniacs.
Well ER was brutal last night unless you enjoy havin your heart ripped out. I actually missed most of it cause i was recording it while i was busy with something susihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07430374642588434106noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144980.post-763941602002-05-10T06:03:00.000-07:002002-05-10T06:03:59.000-07:00
