Turning “60” Bring it on September 16/2019

Sitting here on the eve of my 60th Birthday. I really can’t believe I am going to be “60” tomorrow. Where does the time go? I am not really someone who has cared or stressed about my birthdays. BUT this one has really made me think twice. Only a couple years ago I thought I might never see “60”. But here I am rockin it. Lol Bring it on world…..Bring it on.

I had a busy summer this year. Of course yard work took up a big chunk of it. As it always does. I spent most of July getting things all caught up. Painting and weeding. Painting and weeding. Jamie was away in BC working again so I spent most of August with him and Mac. Jolee brought the grandkids for a week too. But of course all good things come to an end and before I knew it summer was over. Rain and all. And yes we had lots in BC too.

This past weekend Mac’s girls got to spend the whole weekend with us we so love having them all to ourselves. We take advantage of every minute we can. They really just love being here too. Papa takes them for rides on the Kabota and tractor and of course they get to drive them both. We picked berries and apples and even a few cucumbers.

Ava lost a tooth while she was here and the tooth fairy came on Saturday night. That has never happened in this house and a long time since I had to do that. Lots of fun, and Ava was so excited in the morning to find $10.00. She usually only gets $5.00 she told us. I said the tooth fairy is more generous at Papa and Mama’s house. Truth is I only had a 10 dollar bill or a 50. I thought the 50 might be to much. Lol lol. Also Mac would have killed me. Ha ha ha

When I came home in August I finally got to see the specialist Doctor for my dogs ears under my arms. My appointment was at 1pm. The nurse told me he was ahead of time. She took me into an examination room where I sat for the next 1and 1/2 hours waiting. Glad he was a head of time. I might still be there. Finally he came in and said I see you had a double mastectomy, from Dr ? And I know why you are here? He then says do you know what size of cup you want? I said well I guess you don’t know why I am here. I am not here to get implants. Just to get my dogs ears removed. He was surprised. He then told me he could leave the room so I could put a gown on or I could just lift up my top. Like hell he was leaving that room I just waited 1 1\2 hours for him. Up goes the top. He then says. WOW !!! You are a mess. I got a little tears at that point. He could tell I was emotional. And quickly said. I can really fix this so you look much better. Finally some good news. He said I could go to the hospital and get put to sleep or he could just do it in his office. I choose to go to the office. No more being put to sleep if I can help it. So I am booked for November 7th. Yippie. Finally getting these dogs ears fixed. 👍🏻

I am planning my next trip to Tijuana’s and as luck my have it. Jamie is finally going to get to come with me this time. This will be my 5th time there.This treatment seems to be working for me. So we have decided to keep with it. I am feeling great and continue to follow my strict diet and supplement. Really my alternative is WHAT???? Yup not good. So off to Mexico we go.

I am also doing some genetic testing. My family doctor thought it would be a good idea having two cancers so close. He sent a request December of 2016. And I got in July of 2019. Crazy how long it takes. It will also take 10 to 12 months before I get any results. Of course I took my big Sis Cathy with me and we both had so many questions. Both of the ladies asking questions were surprised I had 2 cancers so close together. We were surprised to find out they do not share there findings with the Cross Cancer. Which made us both pretty mad. Seems really stupid to me. They should be able to help each other. Crazy!!!! Now I have been tasked with finding out the genetics in my family. Wow what a job. Both my Mom and my Dad’s family are very big. So there is a lot of family to work through. I am also sad that I didn’t do this earlier because so many of my relatives have passed on. Getting info about them is much harder. But I am very determined. So wish me luck 🤞🏻

Today’s saying : Worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do, but it doesn’t get you anywhere.
