Good news! Bad news. More bad news?

let's see which first - ok, bad news first..... My nose is definitely dripping CSF fluid again. I just got back from the doctor a few minutes ago. It looks like surgery again but the doctor is anxious to try and "in and out" procedure where I won't have to stay in the hospital so long. He will call in a few days with all his research done and finalized to tell me what and when to do this. It is not as obvious where the hole is this time so a bit of glowing dye in the CSF fluid will need to be used - yuck, why me?

Ok, now the good news. I'm going to be a grandmother! I can't believe it! FINALLY. My daughter-in-law just surprised me with the news yesterday. She is due July 22nd. We don't know yet if it will be a boy or girl but I can't wait for either one! This is Cody my step-son, but I raised this kid so his child WILL BE my grandchild!

Ok, now more bad new. We had another fire bomb on our front porch last Wednesday. I called 911 this time! The fire trucks, cops and all. It turned out to be a bomb made of Drano and wood chips wrapped in aluminum foil. There is a chemical reaction with the drano and foil that starts the wood on fire. This time we had quite the burn left on the rug in front of our door. Thank goodness this one was not on the vinyl decking! But who in the world hates me this much?

But, I'm going to be a Grandmother! That beats all! Thanks Mel and Cody!

It's February and the Dang Groundhog Saw His Shadow!


So far this week, I've been to a Yoga session (my sternum hurts. What's with that?).
Some prankster (I hope it is just a prank) left an large aluminum foil wrapped something with a burning top on our front porch. It scorched our vinyl decking a bit. That totally freaked me out and I couldn't sleep much that night.
My hubby got ahold of the police but they didn't seem that impressed or interested. What's with that? They never even told us what was inside the foil - we were afraid to look, not knowing what to expect!
I've had a weird cold that seems to be going around, headache, sinus congestion and super tired - just want to sleep, sleep, sleep! What's with that?
Oh well - Harley-Davidson recycled paper beads are selling like hotcakes the last couple of weeks. I've got to get more made!
A new list of items are on Ebay so check them out. Here is a link to one item. Go to the upper right "info" square and click on "other items for sale" to see all up for auction this week. There are some super good deals!
Don't forget Valentine's Day - there is still time for a special order or two!
