I guess my grandma got transferred to another hospital last night. My mom and dad went down a little while ago, not sure what my aunt's been doing. My mom texted me about a half hour ago and said she might be having surgery in a couple hours as she has a heart valve blockage and possible internal bleeding in her stomach area.
Well, its monday!I started 1,500+ post back, down to 258. Work has been slow this morning.![]()
As my dear friend Mr. Ziegler would say, "All day".Well, its monday!
Our winter was very harsh here and so much plant life was lost. I have not seen a mature tree lost but many of the Maple trees branches that were are 3" or less froze and split. When spring finally arrived the splits started dripping maple syrup everywhere. Messy Messy
Hmpf. I have never stuck plant life on my nose, my kids noses nor have I seen anyone else do this. An enlightening day around here today.![]()
Add some sausage and/or bacon to that beauty, and I would leave my husband for you.Y'all shoulda' held some plates of pancakes under those branches.

Calm down Jennifer, I wasn't implying that there weren't worse pain in life, I was just commenting on the fact that to me, a broken toe would be very hard to not notice at the time. Even if not your worst, it still does hurt.I want your life - if a toe injury is the worst pain you've ever experienced.
- I've had two babies.
- Five root canals/crowns.
- Five minor surgeries, including wisdom tooth removal.
- One more-than-minor surgery - hysterectomy and removal of endometriosis.
- And one fairly major gynaecological surgery which involved two surgeons, five procedures, and 4 1/2 hours on the table, 4 days in hospital, a return trip to the hospital, and twice daily nursing care for more than a week.
- I've broken 6 toes, and 4 fingers (3 @ the same time, which required an orthopaedic surgeon to set, and 4 weeks of physio.)
And outside of the hospital, I've never taken anything stronger than Tylenol 3 in my life.
While I was working in the backyard yesterday, I became aware that my toe was throbbing, but so were a whole lot of other parts of me.
It wasn't until later in the evening, once I stopped moving that I looked at it. It was throbbing, red, swollen and warm to the touch. Just like the previous 6 times.
No worries. I'll live. And you'll surely hear more complaints in the future over hangnails and paper cuts.
I am not much of a "lick-n-stick" type of gal.
I think we all learned our lesson from Seinfeld.

I was just funning with ya.Calm down Jennifer, I wasn't implying that there weren't worse pain in life, I was just commenting on the fact that to me, a broken toe would be very hard to not notice at the time. Even if not your worst, it still does hurt.
And to further complicate this answer.
Yes, I have had two babies. I never felt a thing. My wife, being whiny anyway, did put up a bit of a fuss though.
No root canals, one crown.. no pain involved
Wisdom tooth removal, yes, four impacted ones. Never even took the pain pills they gave me.
I would have had gynecological procedures but the told me they didn't have enough to work with.
Six broken toes? Four fingers? My goodness woman are you just a walking accident looking for a place to happen?I did, however, break the little toe on my right foot running to a bunker in Vietnam. I remember, to this day, forty years later, the exact moment, reason and the remaining two weeks until it stopped hurting and had set itself in a slightly crooked angle. It hurt like hell.
So it was, I thought, a reasonable question. Are you sure you didn't get stung by something? I heard that the bugs in Canada always say sorry, after they bite you, eh? A deer fly could do that to you without you knowing and rubbing it against anything can cause swelling, pain and hot and red areas. That's were I was heading.
Anyway, whatever it was, I hope it stops for you soon. Seems like you have enough going on at this point.![]()
The "like" is for the flowers, not of course, because your life is hell.Thoughts and prayers to you and your family, @PUSH
And @JenniferS you deserve flowers for being a mom of two adults, even if they don't act it.

Sorry I'm quiet as of late, my life is hell.
Sending good karma your way.The "like" is for the flowers, not of course, because your life is hell.
I'm caught up! Work started to get in the way towards the end but I pressed on during my "breaks".
OHH YEAH???I want your life - if a toe injury is the worst pain you've ever experienced.
