Thanks, Debbie, for the ray of sunshine today. We've had a big snowstorm, and it's been quite a day. I'm used to being housebound, but all the menfolk aren't. We baked chocolate chip cookies and homemade bread. So I kept them occupied eating. Works every time.

Don't know what we'd do with a pot of coffee. Probably the same thing that happened when Connie and I got together. We jabbered so much at the restaurant, we closed the place down. Then we went over to her house and started in on the coffee. The only thing better than coming here to KickAS.org is sitting down with another ASKicker. So, I'm warning you Debbie, the next time I'm in California........ I've never been there, but if I do, your house is on my itinerary.

I'm still hurting bad, but I'm getting my spunk back. I may be down, but I'm not out. And you can just pile it on, 'cause I'm gonna make it now. And I will certainly give the dr a piece of my mind next time I see him. I will keep fighting for proper pain control. I owe it to my family to be there for them and I'll do it for me, too. Life is worth living. And even though I feel like I've been chewed up and spit out, I'll still be smiling, 'cause deep down inside of me, I've got peace. I thought I lost it, but underneath all my agony, it was still there.
Love ya, girlfriend.


Hugs,

Cindy
