I've been in Mary Washington Hospital for 2 weeks now. I'm tired of being sick, I'm tired of this leg, I am fed up with not being able to do squat for myself. I want to post details here but my brain is fried to death from the tiredness the new drugs give me.So, let's just say, I have a severe infection in my leg, I got really sick, really sick, like using the word sepsis, and a team of people

I'm too tired to go into it all but I wanted to let you all know that I m back in the hospital. Severe infection in my leg, went septic, trying to come back out of it. I'll write in detail when I am home and doing better.On top of all of this my Uncle Bill past away overnight, last night, in his sleep. He was ill, we knew it was coming, still hard to del with. More later, as I am tired and

I hurt my thumb on my left hand stupidly back on December 29th. My blanket was tucked under Tony, I went to yank it out, and boom a pop and pain. I saw one Doctor on the 30th, another on the next available date. Sprained, torn up shit, blah, blah, blah.I went to the hand doctor, or well, his PA, today, and I have to go for an MRI of my hand next week, as it looks like I may have completely

Ok, so I haven't posted since the 7th, but, I posted twice last week, and can still post twice this week, damnit.Honestly, while I love Holidailies by the last few days I am tired of posting daily. Now, I will post twice a week or I am forbidding myself to buy anything new. That's right, if I don't post, I can't shop. Ha. You should seem me and how much I will be willing to post to allow me

As Holidailies closes for another year, I just want to say thank you to everyone who came from there to read any of MutteringFooldotCom this year. A even bigger thank you to all my long term readers who have been around for years, hell, I know some of you have been reading for the entire time I have been writing here.********************************************************************************

Another cold night so I made a quick pot of soup for us. A fajita soup is what I call it as it has fajita flavors in it. Tony slurped it down so it must have been fairly good, there is enough left in the fridge for another dinner as well. I love leftovers so much.***************************************************************************************I've now been several months with no

Recently I found an old high school friend of mine through her comic website (and it is amazing but, I'll post a link another day.) She is someone who I was very tight with my Junior year and then our friendship fell apart mainly through a misunderstanding but, also because we were going in different directions in live.We ran into one another once or twice over the years, talked for a minute

I am not a big fan of ham. I love pork but, ham for some reason is just meh, or it was until I actually learned to cook it. Ham isn't awful, dry, and dull if you do it right. Unfortunately, all the ham I had ever had was overcooked to the point that you might as well be eating jerky. Now, I buy a ham when it is on sale, cheap, and we cut slices off of it, then pan fry it to make it just done

My black fuzzy slippers are my absolute favorite things in the world right now. That and the pair of black socks underneath them. My feet are still cold even with them on but, if I took them off my feet would be blue.************************************************************************************Speaking of blue, I have been thinking of changing my hair from fuschia to blue for awhile but,

We spent the night with my Mom in the ER. She was having chest pains, and the rescue squad took her to the hospital. Luckily, they found nothing wrong with her heart and no blood clots in her lungs. We brought her home very early in the morning.Honestly, I had hopes that this year would start better but since she is ok, it could have been much, much worse.On top of all of this, I'm sick,

Tickets: to get in, for door prizes and for extra drawdown tickets. Tony and I. He looks crazy, yet I'm the one who was drinking.Sunshine in my glass makes me happy.Whee.Bigger Loser than you'd think.Sister Katie and her fiance, Eric.Me and my Daddy.

2.15 AM. Drunk.Yep. Too much vodka and Jaeger and After Shock and Hypnotiq and, I'll stop there to drink tonight. I am home, I am buzzing, I am happy.We won 400 dollars during the draw down tonight (I'll explain what that is tomorrow, if you don't know.) which I hope would bode well for 2010. Tony is snoring now, I am getting ready to snuggle into him as I am, as I said a minute ago, drunk

I should be getting ready for tonight, I have cheese to cut (ha) a shower to take, makeup to put on, hair to well, try to do, then let it do whatever it wants anyway. New Year's Eve is such a big deal even though, honestly, it isn't. All the time, the money, the stress for another night, the number on the calender is just changing over.Now, don't get me wrong, I hope that the next year will be

I'm stuck in a thumb splint brace for 3-4 weeks as I torn ligaments and tendons in my hand. Plus, I have an extra bone in my hand that will make it harder to heal. Fun, fun.

I hurt my thumb last night, I am now in a temporary spike splint. Typing is a pain in the ass and I am can't do much of it right now. Sorry for the nonentry but, ouch.So have a cute picture of the boys instead.

This is my most valued possession, my wedding set. I know it isn't fancy or expensive, it is scratched up and I can't take a decent picture of it to save my life.Yet, they are the things I love the most. During the first several years of our marriage I never took them off. When my hands swelled up during the extreme heat of one summer I had to pull them off for a few days. The tears streamed

It has been a long few days, but a good few days. The running around is over, the constant family togetherness seems to be, all that remains is the mess which always seems to take a week or two to get settled back in.)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))I'm waiting for Tony to get back from the grocery store.

The day was wonderful, all the children in the family are happy as can be. The grownups are all exhausted, other than me as I crashed for a while.While it was a great Christmas I am glad the gift wrapping and baking and stress is over with, now it is just figuring out where to put all the gifts and getting life back to normal. That can wait though as tonight is for watching Christmas movies and

I just finished all the Christmas baking. 4:30 in the morning and all the cookies are finally put away. I still have the stuff to make fudge but honestly that isn't happening. I am entirely too tired and I still have a lot of wrapping to do.I started off good this year with getting things done early but then everything came down on me and well, once again, I'll get 3 hours sleep then be busy

I have my baby nephew snuggled against me. He is milk drunk and smiling. 2 months old on Christmas day and just as sweet as a baby can be. His little fuzzy head rubs against my chin and he sighs a contented sigh. My heart melts a little bit more as he wraps me around his tiny pinkie finger. Slowly he drifts off to sleep to dream of milk, soft sleepers and gentle kisses. The utter bliss on his

I'm sick. I'm grumpy. I'm tired. I need to be doing baking instead I'm whining. And I need to finish up a million other things but, again, instead I'm whining.The ground is still covered in snow. I hate that damn white stuff.Dinner tonight was a frozen pizza. Lazy with a capital L am I.I have a string of Christmas lights up in the bedroom and they make me happier than they should. I love
