He might have two surgeries in the upcoming month. :(

Thank you all for the support.

It does and it doesn't. It's supposed to be warmer this weekend, so stuff should melt pretty quickly. If it means I can get a day of not going into the office, it's alright by me.

Thank you for asking.

The gallbladder has to go at the end of this month.

The neurologist said that Hubby has a small benign arachnoid cyst, some more blind spots in his vision, and an undetermined black spot on his scan. He has been referred to another radiologist to have another scan to determine what's in the black spot. We'll know more next week.

How's he taking it all? I can only imagine how scary it could all be and the kind of weight that's on both of you right now. Hopefully the other spot is a benign cyst as well.

everyone show watch this to cheer up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTSDAGsdkzM

He's staying positive. The second MRI happened today, so he's a bit woozy from it all.

I hope for you guys it'll be over quick so you can go and enjoy life some more.

a friend of mine.

I just got a phone call from a friend who is getting married in her backyard in a month. The real kicker? She's asking people to bring chairs, food, drinks, etc.

well, does that mean no wedding present? cause it may be cheaper for everybody then!

Is it a tradition maybe?

Absolutely no wedding present! Although she expects presents still.

No, it's not tradition. Her family is very upset that she's doing this. She's just that tacky. I don't mean the backyard wedding; I've been to a couple of those and they were nice enough. It's just that the phone invitation; last minute invite (we used to be best friends); and the actual asking to bring food, drinks, and chairs rubs me the wrong way.

Anyway, I have to share this too:
I was at my roller derby team meeting and one of the girls said, "I quit drinking." To which I replied, "Bitch, you have a beer IN YOUR HANDS." "Uh, I mean, I quit to the point of a three drink minimum." I find my conversations with my teammates hilarious. I've been giggling about that one since Thursday.

Hubby update: He had to have a third MRI done this week. Neurologist appointment will be on Tuesday to discuss results.

Okay, off to the farmer's market in the rain.

It's gonna snow again.
