Big, huge, and extremely tender and cautious hugs to everyone's girlyparts. And, Scrappy, I remember how miserable you were the last few months before the surgery (and also how doting and lovely your DH was all through everything). I'm so glad the surgery was such a success.
Oh, Trudy, that's excellent news. I'll keep vibing for the whole family, for as long as they need it.
My mom is having a hip replacement Tuesday morning. Please send some of that famous Buffista-ma Texasward to ensure her surgery goes without a hitch. Soon, she'll have a bionic hip!
A ton of Texas-sized Surgery~ma for your Mother!
EEP! P-C, I kept meaning to send ~ma for your mom's bionic hip. My sister's had both knees replaced and she does better now than she ever did before, so let's hear it for the bionic parts!
I have spent a disturbing amount of time on this website today: [link] It's "Fine Lines", described as
Welcome to 'Fine Lines', the Friday feature in which we give a sentimental, sometimes-critical, far more wizened look at the children's and YA books we loved in our youth. This week, writer / reviewer / blogger Lizzie Skurnick reads . . .
(this past week was The Long Winter by Laura Ingalls Wilder)
Several of my obscure childhood favorites are on the list, as well as many well known books. I've had a fun afternoon reminiscing, thought that the Bitches might enjoy it as well.
Hip~ma for your mother, P-C! I had a boss whose 80-yo mum had a hip replaced and was bowling within a month. They truly are bionic these days.
Trudy, great news about the little boy! Lots more recovery~ma for him so he gets out of the hospital quick.
Vortex! What an excellent blog. I'm reading the
Wolves of Willoughby Chase
entry RIGHT now!
Hip~ma for the P-C ma. She needs to be all ready to dance at your wedding, dude.
Hip~ma for your ma, P-C. I daresay I know where her shiny, new hip was made. If it's Zimmer, DePuy or Biomet, I could probably vouch for the quality.
And now I stagger forth, dazed, from Vortex's link.
Deenie. The Long Summer. The Grounding of Group Six.
This YA blogger is Hard. Core.
::looks at clock::
Um. What happened to the entire rest of the day?
Tons of hip~ma and post-op~ma to P-C's soon-to-be bionic mom.
If it's Zimmer, DePuy or Biomet, I could probably vouch for the quality.
Hee! I'll try to find out where it's from.
Thanks for the ~ma! The operation went well, and she's recovering in some sort of pimped-out recovery room.
