I talked to D today

He sounded much better and more like his old self when I talked to him today compared to when I spoke to him on Wednesday when his voice was a completely different pitch. He said he was sitting up in his room watching TV with his boys eating sherbet.Prior to talking to him I spoke to his wife and a mutual friend who was visiting him, and both told me he is better, but he’s not out of the woods yet. The tumor was removed and was cancerous, but how bad it really is we don’t know yet, and it will be a week or so before we do now once they run some test.

His heart “problem” could have just been stress at the time his EKG was taken, and the surgeon noticed a “lump” or something on the side of the neck which could be a cyst or a mole, their family Dr will have to look it over.

So I feel better, a bunch of us who know D are sharing emails so everyone is keeping in touch and I have more phone numbers to call to friends who I only seen 2 times in the last 15 years.

Its “odd” to realize that as popular as D is with all the friends he has, that I am included inside his “family circle” which includes some really great people from all over the US and Canada, I just never been the most popular person but yet, D and I stuck together for over 16 years.

So I feel somewhat better today, his wife will tell him everything in a day or so and they will be meeting with some specialist this week.

Just taking one day at a time right now, and odds are I will be driving up to see him when I am in Portland. That fucker… makes me drive 6 hours there, deal with customs and 6 hours back… I better get some BBQ out of this.

How Do I Feel?: okay okay

D Update

Harold called and talked to D’s wife, Lisa, thankfully it may not be as bad it sounds!!

The issue with his heart may be stress related and now nothing is showing up on the ekg.  The doctors seem confident that he will recover from the cancer tumor.  But we aren’t sure of the throat?

He still has issues, but it sounds much better then we thought……..thank god!

Just Filling You In………

Well, you saw my post about Diesel…………it sucks. =(

But I was planning on another post before that……just let everyone know what I’ve been up to.

Well, it is the same story here on being busy as hell at my day job. Dealing with employees that can be good, but feel like I have to nag and kick them in the ass to get them moving……….it is so annoying.

I had a very long day yesterday. I had to get nails done, especially since I had chip a few of them. So I got in just after 5 and they were busy as heck. They were able to get me in for a pedicure right away. While she was doing my toes I decided that I need a whole new set of nails. So I pried all the old ones off. =) It saves on time and money…….grin I had to wait to get my nails done. In fact I didn’t get out until almost 8:45pm! But they did a great job on my design…..I actual did a pink and red combo, not my normal color scheme.

It was great to come home. We had gotten our order from Omaha Steaks

I love their stuff! If you haven’t tried it, you have got to. Harold made chicken cordon bleu and potatoes au gratin (we are so addicted to those). It was great.

Today I got the lawn mowed.

I did get my new camera!!! Unfortunately, I haven’t had time to play around with it much. I love what I have played with.

Here is a quick picture from my new camera, plus shows off my new nails. I’m still playing around with the lighting.

We’ve been tense all day wanting to know how D was doing. So I tried to stay busy and get things done.  Made Harold some oatmeal cookies.

I stopped working on that once we got the email. Been hard to getting my mind back on track. I did get some private messages and emails done. They have been sitting for too long.

Thankfully we have Scrubs on dvd…..they are great for trying to get your mind off of things.
