Who Knew

Istanbul , Turkey
 

Istanbul (AKA Constantinople), Turkey, is the only city in the world located on two continents.

Dad is Home!

My dad has been on Morphine for the pain but he had an allergic reaction so they took him off of it and put him on another pain killer.

This turned out to be a blessing in disguise, once he started using the other one he was able to get up and get dressed, ect so they let him come home.

He is very very happy, that place was bad!  Especially the night nurses who acted like the patients were BOTHERING them if they needed something.  What kind of shit is that?

Since he was in the hospital for Thanksgiving my mom didn’t do a turkey for thanksgiving, I brought them down leftovers because my dad loves his leftover turkey sandwiches!

Dad’s Recovery Fiasco

Soo as you all know my dad fell again, and we finally got him to a convalescent hosptial.

So what do they do???  They put him in the Alzheimer’s ward! Hello, my dad is fine mentally, it is his pelvic not his brain that is the problem.

So my mom told them to “get him out of there NOW”, so when she comes back the next AM his is STILL in there, so my mom said Move him and they said there weren’t any other beds available, so when she said “then we will move him to another facility” and POOF another bed appeared.

What kind of crap is that!

Smoking Kills..

we all know that, and if you choose to smoke and are under the age of 50, and get a smoking related illness don’t try and SUE someone!

Now for those smokers in their 60’s + who were bombarded with smoking ads and back when everyone denied smoking was bad, THEY can sue.

The rest of ya, you know what you are doing!  You are playing Russian Roulett with your life and you are that is your right, but don’t try and get the Tobacco Companines or Insurance Compaines or Government (read… the rest of us NON-smoking, taxpayers) to pay for your pain and suffering!

What kind of jury says the smoker is 10% responsible and the tobacco industry 90% responsible for her smoking?  Did the CFO hold her down and force her to inhale?  Did the stock holders grap her off the street and shove a cigarette in her mouth and say “Smoke or you die???!!!”

What kind of shit is this, take responsiblity for your actions!

It’s Coal for the Credit Card Companies this year!

I wonder if the Credit Card Co are getting it yet? I refuse to put anything on this Christmas Season. I will be buying presents as I have the money.

Screw them, do they really think they can try and force us into over 24% interest rates and we wouldn’t react….badly?

If interest rates weren’t so high they wouldn’t have as much defaults going on because we could actually afford to pay our bills.

Teach’em not to FU#@ with the consumer. We are creative, we are inventive and boy are we vindictive when you really piss us off!

Let’s boycott the Credit Card Companies and see what Santa Brings ‘em

whose kid is this??

My dad fell again…

this time fractured his pelvic bone, seriously he is like peanut brittle now. In the last few years he has fallen and broke his hip, falled and messed up his shoulder and now this. Good thing is no surgery, bad thing is back to the convalescent home. aauugghh.

This is hard to take since all my life he has been the strong silent type, there for us all the time, getting old sucks!

It is real hard on my mom, my dad is 6′ 2″ my mom 5′ 2″. So much for all you thinkin’ she was beatin’ him!!!

Global Warning a Myth???

It is well known that CA is sunny, but even we have cool winters… sort of….. however today it was 80 freakin’ degrees, seriously folks, WTF???

So glad global warning is just a myth.

Does anyone seriously think that all the stuff we send into our atmosphere is a good thing? You don’t think there maybe SOME kinda consequence? It can’t be good.

What? Little prep time for Turkey Day

I was all happy because I thought both Turkey Day and Tree Day were taken care of but NOOOO!

I have Turkey day, shinola! I am soooo unprepared. So instead of laying around in bed (I wish) I gotta get my stuff together. aauugghhhhhhh.

Surgery Sucks

Auugghhh, I recently had surgery so my posts may take longer to do then usual.

My suggestion, even though you CAN eat until 12 the night before, the least you eat the better and next time I am going liquid only.

Getting my body back to it’s normal functions has been much more difficult then the actual recovery of the surgery itself.

I am working from home, (so much for 2 weeks off to recover) but again at least I have a job to bitch about.

Ok I am going back to bed now.
