At least she said I can't do anymore heavy lifting.

Yay for that.  No more helping lift the heavy rototiller or snow blower up into the truck.  And of course, I need to quit smoking.  Any of you smokers out there feel free to call me up and blow smoke  up my ass into the phone.  I can live vicariously through you.  Oh.  I forgot to say who the ''she' was.  I had my appt. with the Cardiothorasic/Vascular surgeon about my ascending aortic aneurysm. (thinning of the wall of the aorta).  I guess it's supposed to be a 3 (something metric) and mine is a 4.1.  Surgery isn't considered until it's 5-point something.  Will have another CT in August as will as another scan of my thyroid  and  breasts.  Damn Hunter and his biting!
In other news...day at daughter's went well.  Once Dawn got home from her 12 hour shift, we went to Olive Garden.  Would have rather gone to somewhere a little cheaper as I have to pay for 6 people but OMG did we have fun!!!  Laughed throughout the whole meal.  Seriously.  I told them to quit the laughing because then that would cause me to cough which in turn would cause me to  fart and the all hell broke loose!  That got us laughing even more.  I started the whole thing by blowing the paper straw cover at Cain.  The boy's friend came with us.  They call him by his last name which is Brogan.  He had a Kool-aid t-shirt on. So naturally I called him Rogain or Kool-aid.  Then my daughter asked Cain what an invisible (?) number was.  That took us off laughing in another direction and I am surprised we didn't get kicked out!  Dawn texted me as I was driving home that it was just what she needed.  (Her husband just left that morning for work and will be gone about 6 weeks.)    I  didn't get lost   was surprised that my trip back home took almost twice as long as usual.

Gotta go in soon and make some potato salad for Hunter to take to his son's tonight.  I have an appt. with my counselor so  darn it I won't be able to go with him.  After therapy, I hope I don't accidentally go to Goodwill.  That would be stupid since I am also boxing up tons of stuff-good stuff included- to take to church for their garage/thrift/rummage sale.

Wish me luck on becoming a non smoker.  And if I I succeed, Prepare your selves for some really bitchy posts for awhile. For now....love you all!
