I can has house in NOLA! Big thanks to Nora and K.

I know I've not been around for months upon months, so it's particularly cheeky of me to drop in and ask for -ma, but I'm not a religious person and I can't pray because it would be hollow. But I've always felt about the -ma that it's my equivalent of lighting a candle for people.

Anyway, my wee sister (healthy eating, sporty, samba-dancing, just qualified as a zumba instructor) has got this lump on her neck, and earlier in the week she went in to the hospital and thought she was just going to get it scanned or examined or whatever, and was a bit shocked when they gave her a biopsy. Apparently the envelope with the results in is sitting waiting for her right now; she's on her way back home from London.

So I would really appreciate some everything-benign-and-nothing-scary kind of -ma, guys, if you don't mind me dropping in like this out of the blue. She is my baby sister. (Yes, fine, she's 28 - in my head, she will always be 12.) My mind is one big blob of denial right now.

Requesting ma not so much for myself, but for all those in the severe weather targeted area tonight. Everything is fine in Wichita atm, but I can hear thunder and the Weather Channel pictures of Oklahoma are pretty scary looking. So ma to cover Buffistas from KC all the way south to Texas to get through these storms tonight. Of course I mean to include all the other storm targeted areas as well.

eta: Wichita made it through the gauntlet this evening. Sending positive thoughts to all those who weren't so lucky.

I lost a week of internet time. During this last week my Uncle died in his sleep, so thank you all for your gentle passing ~ma.

Also, the first of my 4 pregnant nieces gave birth to a baby girl named Amelia Jayne. And, yes that spelling of the name is related to Firefly.

Please may I have some Buffista~ma for my best friend's mother. She was just admitted to the hospital with chest pains.

Some easy-passing~ma would be appreciated for my uncle. While the lung cancer hasn't spread, he is in congestive heart failure due to secondary infections. The doctors have recommended hospice, so the end is near. We just want him out of pain. Thanks for the good thoughts over the last six months.

Slice and sear to remove cancerous lesion from floor of mouth tomorrow. Minor operation ~Ma appreciated.

So... Ummm... Yeah. FAQWife is pregnant. Due date is 10-22-2011. It's a boy.

Congrats to Faqwife and Jon.

Back from surgery. One part they could not get so biopsy will determine if that part is cancer or not. If cancer then radiation therapy cause surgery not possible there Percoset is not my friend - made me feel worse than waking up from op which is why I'm posting this morning instead of last night.Just recovered from percoset.

In two days, my roller derby league will be hosting and competing in our very first home bout. A little sanity ~ma and possibly some not-cut-a-bitch~ma may be needed before the first whistle blows.
