Ladies' Brunch 12/02/07

On November 30th Irene and Lisa came over to help me put my Christmas decorations. We ate xmas cookies and listened to carols - it was G.T.s. It was all in preparation for the Ladies' Brunch. So much food... it was delicious. Zeljka was amazing! I wasn't feeling well at all and she took over. She cooked and served and everything. The bacon kicked ass. It's been so long so I don't remember all the stars of the menu. Bailleys and hot chocolate or coffee. Yum - that was good! I had such a great time, and I loved seeing everyone. I hope to make it an annual thing. What better way to kick off Christmas? Ladies, booze in the a.m., and eating for hours. Oh ya - we wore PJs! Well, only 6 or 7 of us actually wore them, but we were comfy. Here are some pics:

Return of the Blog

Since my hospital stay I've decided to try to blog again. The only reason I quit was because I started spending so much time in hospital and when I was out, everything hurt or I was sick. It was total bullshit. So here's a recap of what's been going on recently: I'm off chemo - they say it makes me too sick. I'm not on any kind of treatment right now. I'm trying to get walking again - I've been stuck in bed for over a month. I'm going berzerker. I also need babysitters when Al is at work - good thing I have the best friends in the world! They have a schedule worked out where they come over once a week to watch me and make dinner. Oh, and empty my pee bags. I have problems with my kidneys now, so I have tubes running out of my kidneys that drain into bags. Since I'm stuck in bed, Al and I have been having "Lost" marathons. I love this show - right now we're on season 3. Al's birthday was last week and I bought him a GPS. My cousins had one and it looked so cool I had to get one. It's effin fun, I can't wait to get in the car. You can have celebrity voices tell you where to go - like droopy dog (that's only funny to me and Lisa). OK this pen sucks so I'm done. Al's going to type this up for me.
The next blog is going to be about the ladies brunch I had back in December. I went to the hospital the next day, so I couldn't write about it or put up pics. See ya.

Bing Bing Blog

Good morning. I just got out of a week long stay at the luxurious Toronto General. Amenities included tv/phone, free drugs, remote control bed, and nurse service 24/7. Activities included CAT scans, being pricked 100 times for an IV line, and having a brand new tube and bag inserted into my kidney. My most favourite feature, though, had to be Bing Bing Bong. All day, all night "Bing Bing Bong". Man what a catchy tune. Al tried to record it, but unfortunately a picture will have to suffice.
