OK...the L is for Love

So, I was going to refuse to send out Christmas cards.....not because I don't like Christmas....I just feel like it has gone out of control on who has the cutest card.  Last year I had a brilliant idea, I would have each of my children and husband sign every card we send out like 100 of them...no pictures.  I should of just said "We are have brussle sprouts and spam for dinner for the rest of the year".... (feel free to substitute what foods you hate.......}  But I did it....Hell!!!! won't do that again.  So this year I was not going to send out any cards....  Well that lasted like...well one day.  Then I was thinking "I don't want to be that "@ss hole" that doesn't send out a card".  So they are not Christmas cards they are, "New Years Eve Cards".   See pic above.  Then I gave the cards to like 3 people and they were like "IS DEVIN GIVING THE LOOSER SIGN OVER YOU'R HEAD????"  Hey I am almost 40...and really crap, I don't even know if kids do that anymore.  I would of thought he could have come up with a better sign.  So at the end of the day it is a..... L FOR LOVE:}

An Apple bag!!!!

What more could you ask for???  This can carry Mac Book, iPad, iPad2, iTouch, and all my other apple devices!!!

My Nose doesn't know....

So Snoring runs in my family.  When we were kids it was embarrassing because my dad would go camping with the Boy Scouts and he would have his own tent away from everyone else and he would snore.  It scare the shit out of all the boy because they thought it was a grizzly bear....great.  So Both my children have had ear tubes.  Every time I go to the ENT with them, I tell the doctor I snore, can't breath and that I am really cool.  Well every time he says I have a crooked septum.  So cool 6 years later....I can't take it anymore I want to breath.  So DR. ENT - "It is so simple....we do the surgery on a Friday and BOOM your better on Monday".  So, I'm like...get this done!!!!

So this is literally the paper they sent me home with....
Post operative instructions: Septoplasty/Turbinoplasty
Definition of Septoplasty/Tubinoplasty......

So I don't like to read long things so I will keep it short....

A deviated septum is one that is displaced significantly and causes obstruction of air flow.....RELAXING CUTS ARE MADE IN THE REMAINING CARTILAGE to straighten the cartilage.  This is secured into position with sutures.....(and some how I also have stitches?) To reduce enlarged turbinates the underlying turbinate BONE IS CRUSHED.

WAIT DID I JUST READ CRUSHED?????    Overlying tissue is CAUTERIZED......IN SOME CASES (always) the nasal cavities are packed......

Oh then on Monday they take out the packing with half your brain.....   Well hope you enjoyed reading that. :}

Devin and my Doctor

I had surgery last week... 11.11.11.  I had a Septoplasty/Turbinoplasty....AKA, clearing out your nose and just messing with it so you can breath better. Dr....it will hurt for a couple of days....  ME- THIS HURTS LIKE HE!!.  So my nose is still bleeding.  Devin has been taking really good care of me, putting cold towels on my forehead.  Then last night he says, "mom i have a question",  because my nose is still bleeding, "What kid of doctor are we dealing with????? "  Love the kid!
