It's a little after 8:30p.m., I have my windows open and my front door open. It's soooooooooo nice out.
Had a little adventure in the parking lot at Lowes this afternoon in Madison Heights. Some oaf left his one-eyed dog locked up in a red Explorer. The rear windows were cracked, front windows closed. This poor furry guy was fast panting, his tongue was way out. I was so mad. I photoed the dog and promptly put it on facebook (hey, this guy is lucky I didn't put his license plate on fb). Just as I was starting to dial 911, the owner shows up at the rear of the car. After confirming he owned the dog, I said: "You know it's illegal to lock your animal in the car with no ventilation."
So he decided, on a nice sunny afternoon, since it was cool outside it didn't matter.
I said, "How about I lock your butt up in the fricking car for twenty minutes with windows cracked? I bet you change your tune...oh, and I called the cops."
He was as big as me, I thought it'd be a GREAT wrestling match.

How long did it take you to get up and around?
Well, I just found out the other day from my urologist, that my bladder has indeed fallen. I was pretty sure this was the case obviously, that is why I went to him. Anyway, I am in need of a bladder lift/suspension. I first have to go through this horrible testing to measure my bladder and how well I can empty it, to see if I need anything else done or if that is it. So that testing is scheduled for June 3rd, then after that we will schedule the surgery.
I have a lot of mixed feelings about this, but after having six kids and being so overweight and obese for so long, my bladder is shot and I am sick and tired of peeing my pants, lol.... So it really needs to be done. I guess this is a good thing. I will keep you all posted on when I will actually have the surgery and then how things go afterward.
HUGS to ALL,
