Don't look if you don't want to see the photo!

Really, move on if you don't want to see.

Still here?   Okay then.

Ok, if you got this far this was taken today, day three.  I have no pain really, only taking Tylenol and it is tender of course,  I still have a drain and it is still tight from being a bit swollen but I would definitely do it again. I have spent $26,000 so far and think this is very fair for all I had done, upper and lower eyes, brow lift, full facelift with neck. That cost included the hospital stay overnight. 

I am alone now and able to take care of myself fine. I still have clean sheets daily because of bacteria and bathe of course daily. I am eating healthy and resting quite a lot. 

Tomorrow I go back to see the surgeon and I will let you know what he says. 

That's it from my world.  Hope I didn't freak you out too much!

Home and happy!

TCD brought me this lovely orchid arrangement and chicken soup and held my hand. What a lucky gal I am to have D#1, the duck, and TCD in my life!

So... The surgery was more than seven hours and went very well. He is a perfectionist and that's what you want in someone doing this kind of procedure on you.

Let me know if you want photos, I don't mind but it's a bit scary still right now. My left eye does not close all the way because of swelling. My headache was really the worst if it and that is much better now.

Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes. Y'all rock.

Dr. Pinsky

I think if you scroll down on Dr. Pinsky's page and read a bit you will see why TCD told me not to go to anyone else.  Besides all the great things written about him he has a wonderful personality and gives great hugs too.  Not as great as TCD but great nonetheless.  I wonder why it is that the doctors hug me?  Anyway I loved it.

I am all ready to go on Thursday at o-dark-thirty.  Seriously I have to be there at 5:30 in the morning!  There really is such a time!  Who knew?  D#1 flies in today and I'll pick her up and we'll be ready to go on Thursday morning.  Maybe we'll even get to see the duck!

If anyone is interested in knowing more about this including the cost I don't mind telling you at all.  I know some people say it's not polite to talk about money but if you want to know I'll be happy to tell you.

I guess that's about it but don't be alarmed if I don't post for a few days.  Sandy can tell you in the comments here because she'll know that I am fine and I know I will be.  See you soon! 

Tuesday means Andre' and today is a whole body workout.  He said I am going to get a hard workout because it's the last one for six weeks.  Then possibly the pool and then poker.  Busy day!

I was reviewing all I have to do to make sure I am doing it right and started thinking about the fact that he is removing fat from my belly and putting it in my face.  Really?  It took me so long to get rid of the fat in my face!  But I trust him and I'll let him do what he thinks is best.

I am on the part now where I have to bathe twice daily with antibiotic soap and wash my sheets every day.  He wants as little bacteria as possible.  I even have to do my hair every day now and not put anything on it like styling gel or spray.  No perfumes (which I would never do anyway), no deodorant, no lotions or creams. Nothing.

I had a very nice dinner last night with Sandy and Dick.  Probably the last one before they go back to Podunk for the summer.  They leave in two weeks.  I saw their cute little Prius too.  

Have a wonderful Tuesday y'all.  I will too even if I am going to get beat up! 

I took this photo as I left TCD's parking lot yesterday (and yes, I was there again!), you can see the start of his dock.  It was a beautiful day!  I used to live just a few doors south of this before I moved where I am now.

Today's calendar is empty!  You saw that right, empty!  I love having an empty calendar on a Monday when it's warm and sunny so you will find me at the pool in case you are looking.  I already did all my chores and have the day completely off.  I even did all my ironing!  Cleaned out under the sink, lots of chores done.  Why?  I have no idea.  I just got going and couldn't seem to stop.

Guess that's all I know today.  I seem to be having a stupid brain spell.  Hope your Monday is totally tits.  Mine will be, no doubt about it!

The pool was lovely yesterday and then I got to spend the afternoon with TCD!  I had my teeth cleaned by the new hygienist and I liked her very much.  Then after she left we talked for a few hours and then it was time for me to come home and fix dinner and end the day with a smile on my face. 

Today I get to see the duck and do my last grocery shopping before the surgery.  I have already gotten some soups, jello, stuff like that plus TCD said he is going to bring me soup from TooJays.  He has never come to my apartment before.  I wonder if he'll drop it at the doorman's desk or bring it up? lol

It's March and the month is half over already.  I think it's about spring everywhere but it's nearly summer here.  The pool thermometer said it was 85°yesterday but to be honest it didn't feel that warm.  It was, however, warm enough to get in and exercise.  By the time I am able to swim again it will really be warm and lovely!  Best time of the year.

That's all I have y'all.  Hope you have a fabulous Sunday.  I know I will, no doubt about it!

Well plans change.  Sandy and Dick were so gracious

when the duck called me at the last minute

with tickets to The Kravitz Center.

They completely understood that I couldn't

turn down two aisle seats eighth row orchestra!

The show was SOOOOO good too!

So this is the governor (of the pool) that

was nice enough to take me.

The Cole Porter songs were so good and the cast did an amazing job.  I truly loved it.

So I had a talk with Andre' about next Tuesday being my last session for six weeks and he said he is going to do a whole body workout then and will plan what to do when I get back.  He really does know what he is doing and won't hurt me.

That's all I know for today y'all.  Hope your Saturday is fabulous.  Mine will be for sure!

Well I sure had a great day yesterday, first I had my hair done and my pedicure so I can pass hospital toe inspection (thanks Sandy for reminding me about that! Whew!) and then I had a nice trip to Whole Foods for some yummy organic veggies that I want to roast and then I had a great dinner out in a new restaurant with my GGF (good gay friend that I call Ryan because that is his name).  No boring day for me! Oh, and Ryan's nickname is the Senator!  How cool is that?  Now we have a mayor, a governor, and a senator, and of course an empress in the building.

Tonight I am having dinner with Sandy and her sweet hubby too.  Three days, three dinners out.  Can't beat that with a stick.  Well unless you have to get on the scales that is but I'll be good soon.  Really good.  In fact I won't even be able to eat for a while I don't think.

You do realize it's Friday the thirteenth, right?  I wonder why people think that is unlucky.  It's always been a good day for me.  I wonder how most superstitions get started.

I had all my post-op prescriptions delivered yesterday.  There are lots of them too.  Lots of creams and pills.  Oh well, I will do whatever he tells me to do.

Have a fabulous Friday y'all.  I will too.  I have a date with Andre' to beat me up and then the pool and then my dinner out.  How fun is that day?

Today I get my hair done for the last time for about six or seven weeks, I'll be able to wash it a few days after the surgery but not color it for a while.  I'm getting the toes prettied up a bit too.  I usually do my own mani/pedi (now that I can reach my feet!) but once in awhile I get them done professionally.

Everyone is asking me if I am getting nervous now.  I'm not really but I would say I am getting an anxious feeling. But all in all I do feel good about the whole thing.  I have complete trust in the doctor and all of his staff and I am not familiar with the hospital but I know he wouldn't use it if it wasn't fine.

It has been warm and lovely here, sunny and in the 80's.  You know I love that!  I hope it stays that way forever.

That's it from me today y'all.  Hope your Thursday is totally tits.  Mine will be.  For sute!

So finally here is the kitchen.

It's small so it's hard to photograph.

But it's functional and I sort of like it.

Andre' did everything in sets of 50 yesterday instead of three sets of 20 and it was much harder to do 50 straight.  Much harder.  Then I had to do my water jogging for 50 minutes and finally I was back in the pool.  It felt wonderful!

I was so tired I could barely stay awake at poker but I made it.  I put eighty in and took seventy eight out so I lost two bucks.  Not bad for a night of fun.

Then I had some lovely texts from TCD so that made my evening really nice.  And that, my lovely friends, is all I have in my head today.  Have a great Wednesday and don't forget Wednesday is Prince Spaghetti Day!
