"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

We're back home. JZ huddled with the piggies, and got hugs all around.

Now she's looking up insurance information. I have to run back to the pharmacy to get our prescriptions (dilaudid, lidocaine patches etc) which weren't ready when we were released.

So...

Ho ho ho, shifting into xmas mode.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Well giant FUCKO to CANCER.

Loves to all the Zmayhems. Here’s hoping for less pain and good fast treatment.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

(((Jacqueline and David, Matilda and Emmett, and Jacqueline's mom))) Thinking about you moment to moment and wishing you well, and coping, and some peace amid everything. Merry Christmas, too. May your spirits be lifted and fed by the cheer and light of the season.

Best of journeys to the travellers among us, best of company to the revellers among us, best of still moments of awareness and gratitude and peace among the celebrations and families and friends and travel. Love to all of us.

Toddson! So good to hear from you. May your holidays be happy ones!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Glad for the being home!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Hugs and ~ma to all who need/want it.

Thrive to spite them

Glad to know JZ is home and I hope you can be home soon and y'all can just be with each other.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Jacqueline is dozing on the couch to the sound of Vince Guaraldi.

Emmett and I made a quick xmas shopping run to Japantown and he's done with his shopping, and I got a major gift I needed.

We dropped Matilda and my MiL (aka, Nana) there as well so they could do their shopping. They will be bussing home (Nana finds this prime people watching) and hitting Target on the way.

I told him to put up hooks for the xmas stockings and he put them in the exact wrong place and now we're going to live with that.

Everything's still cattywampus but we're cobbling Christmas together out of bits and bobs.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This does give a better perspective on my mother's cold/flu/covid (she refuses to go to the doctor, so we'll never know). Although I am not really prepared to host the whole family gathering in my apartment (usually we split it).

Our wings are not tired.

Thank you for the update, Epic. Very good to hear that the new physician has their act together. A plan of action to have surgery early in the new year sounds good to me.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Having a plan makes all the difference, Epic. It's great that your new surgeon is giving you confidence in the chosen path.
