Believe it or not but I have missed you. The last two years have been the most miserable of times. I refuse to digress except for this month of November. I know most of you remember my first hip replacement experience, it was horrible! I was in so much pain ... the pain pills had me so dazed, if I did not have you guys to get me through it I would have left everything there.Thank God for you guys, you were right there to help me through it. Moving over 200 potted plants, digging up plants in the ground, it was unbelievable, the ground was so barren. About a year I stopped by to visit the guy who moved in there, just to see if anything came up. he said a lot of plant came up especially the Clemitis. He had them in pots and asked me if I wanted them. I said Oh No! It just did my heart good to know someone was enjoying them.The only thing I was upset about was that he chopped down my Mimosa tree, but I still manage to bring another with me a DGER had sent me from California. When Patrob said she was bringing the horse carts or what ever to move the plants I had no idea what she was talking about ... all the way from Houston. It was Hilarious all the neighbors came out to see. I dont think they ever witness a moving party like that. lol
Anyway I just had right hip replaced, It was a cinch! After I got home I had Vertigo so bad, I could not stand up. Its a strange thing, you dont know you are falling until you find yourself trying to get up. After several gashes in my head and bruised shoulders trying to avoid hitting my hip I decided I need to call the paramedic.(did you know it cost 1200.00 for the paramedics to come get you?) to take me to the emergency room. I stayed in the ER all night before they decided to admit me AGAIN, another four days ... then so more doctors could see me they sent me to Rehab ... another four days. They wanted me to stay two weeks, but I had to go home to my babies (Sedric and Sara). Also six staples were found in my hip that should have been removed along with the other ten by the home health nurse, this caused hysteria! ( this nurse got canned) The rehab had me on all these machines before they found out I was 50% wheel bearing(?) more hysteria! I think they were glad I signed my self out. lol
I hope I managed to entertain you guys for a while. :)
Sheila where is she? I forgot her name.
