Beauty and the Beast
Dave's begonias are so bright I need shades to look at them. :)
When I met Dave I had this very cool "alternating pressure mattress pad." It had diamonds that would alternately fill with air during sleep. This allowed me to remain a side sleeper and not awaken to sore pressure points. Dave said it felt like there was something creepy under the covers, not to mention the mattress sighs and raised me above my husband in bed. When we married he bought a fancy Sleepnumber bed that made the pad obsolete...yayy! It has massage and the head and feet can be raised. After 3 good years it's no longer enough, so we are back to sleeping with the sighing creeper. I'm loving it, but Dave and my animals have some adjusting to do. A week ago it was the mattress and slippery bubbles that caused me to fall out of bed. I hit the nightstand with my head and my thigh hit a make-shift step. Here is the beast that resulted in my own adjustment period. The butt of my Ebay joke from previous post. What do you see Joyce? LOL (7 days old)
Thanks for the prayers and good thoughts for my "awake" surgery. I had a fibroid taken out awake in 1983 while pregnant with my first baby and no "happy shot." I'm alot tougher now and know what to expect, not to mention I have no smell for the cauterizing part. I'll be fine!

lol! I think I see the profile of Jay Leno!
Wow; that's a whopper of a bruise! I see a) a footprint of the right foot or b) a late night sky with eerie clouds trying to obscure the moon. I'm not sure either of those would make it ebay-worthy though. But the latter would certainly go along with your sighing creeper ;-)
Eeek! It looks like Jimmy Durante- at least his nose!
Wow- that is some brusie- try putting some Arnica gel on it- that will help it!
xo
Oh, my gosh, Tammy -- you have been going through a lot in the past week! I was so concerned when I saw your bruise and read about your upcoming surgery. When it rains, it really does pour. I think I see the profile of someone wearing a baseball cap in your bruise. I'm sending you extra good energy and hugs!
:)
Yikes - I think you should put thatupon e-bay - ouch!
Hope it heals quickly - and your upcoming surgery, too - you're in my thoughts and prayers, brave warrior woman
Dear Tammy,
Just catching up on your blog and proud of your decision to take care of this the way you want to ... bravo! By the way, your doc, she sound cool!
Sending peace, love and healing thoughts ... xx, JP
OK - OUCH!!
that is one gnarly bruise. i hope you're feeling better tammy - i haven't been visiting much (sorry) but you are my hero. xo
I'm finally getting around to all the blogs I never got a chance to read over the weekend.... My word, you are one brave lady - facing everything you are facing at the moment and still in such good humour! I truly, truly admire your spirit. Will be keeping you in my prayers.
OK...first of all, I see a big foot print on the right side of it. Don't you?? (sure hope Dave didn't KICK you outta bed)! lol
Second, the begonia is beautiful.
Third,
You WILL be fine w/ the surgery...I just know it. Any date yet?
Love ya,
Nancy
I think I see Bigfoot! And I see Jesus shining in and through you! Praying for a speedy recovery!
You will be fine, darling Tammy. So many of us are praying for a good result! xoxoxox
Just catching up. I've been pretty busy getting ready for one more move...before the last move. Your bruise makes me wince. Ouch! I also wish you the best on your surgery. You will do surprisingly fine, I just somehow know.
Hell of a bruise, dear friend, it looks a little bit like tie-dye to me. Mine is a little bit smaller and looks like a floating duck.
You know I'll be with you in heart and mind on Wednesday and we'll celebrate your success with a PC chat.
It's the beginning of August and I'm counting the days till October when we will finally meet, face to face. Oh, joy!
Gorgeous begonias... you are right about the colors... and the bruise is well.... colorful!
WOW!
You don't fool around...when you take a bruise, you make it count. Let's see a whole lot less of those, ok?
LOVE and prayers Tammy coming your way and UP, UP, and away to the man UPSTAIRS!!! I'll be thinking of YOU Wednesday!!! That bruise is a doooozy! No more bruises!!!(((((Tammy))))))
Ouch is right...I'll be thinking of you!
Love,
D.
i'm pretty sure I see a hand, with the index finger pointing. Not sure what the other yellow parts are.
I've never heard of a mattress like that... but if it had even the slightest bit of slipperyness, I'm sure I'd fall off of it! LOL Some of us are just drawn to bruises!
I don't see Jesus, but I see a bunny on a ball getting handed something from an owl. Do you see that too? maybe he is handing him a carrot?
You are a trooper sweetheart. :)
That is one big bruise! Hang in there girlfriend; I'll be thinking of you tomorrow and hope all goes well.
