I heart houseplants

Kalanchoe

*245*
 She cost me one whole $1. She was on the dead to me table at the grocery store. She is a succulent, she is over watered, her flowers need to be trimmed and she needs to sit dormant here near the computer for about a month. Wish her luck! My other unwanted plants are thriving. I missed having alot of houseplants. I used to have about 30 at one time. They did really well. But they all got old. Died one at a time. I was dealing with my sickmess <---misspelled purposely. I have been picking up plants here and there. So far so good.

  The biopsy came back clean. It was just a lipoma. The stitches are out and I will never wear that particular shirt to a Dr visit again. It was a spring shirt. My cleavage was not spilling out but it was more skin (arms, neck) I guess that this P.A could handle. He kept looking at the girls. He was not able to hide it. Made me feel a little dirty...LOL I actually went home to change. It is not warm enough for it. I stopped at a consignment shop in that town. I scored! $25 for a Coach wallet and $5 for a Worthington house dress. That wallet goes for 3x that in the Coach outlet. My Coach collection is complete for now.

  It is a gloomy day today. I am going to do some general cleaning, make the blood orange marmalade (i bought some more), and Kid #2 wants us to bleach her hair. I am also doing our world famous baked chicken wings. I have been craving it.
That is about it for now. Life is okay.

Do not itch the stitch

Karl Lagerfeld Paris March 2014

*245*

   I posted that pic from the Karl Lagerfeld show because I thought it was cool. And because I do not want to instantly freak you out with my incision picture. It is nsfb <---not safe for breakfast. I did not realize that the surgeon was going to do actual surgery in the office. I thought it was like just below the skin. Oh no no Nanette! He had to cut through all the skin...as the picture will show forthwith. The surgeon was good and nice. He took out the tumor which he said was a lipoma. Because of it`s size, it still has to be biopsied. He also fixed a varicose vein that was near the tumor. I have five stitches and I go back on Friday to have them taken out plus find out results of the biopsy. I am glad that it is what it is and  I can stop stress eating. I have a picture because I told him how Kid #2 had wanted to see but couldnt come. He had his assistant take a couple snaps so she could. This is why I have this grossness to share.
 You wanna see the picture now?

Lipoma tumor taken from my thigh

 He  neglected to give me a script for the pain I endured on Friday and Saturday. I called early Friday morning for them to call something in. Every time I sat down or got up..I yelped. The covering peeled off so Fred had to fix that. I was a assy mess..LOL
 The sad part is the Dr said it was all set meaning it was called in, but it wasnt. He was gone so I just had to deal. I survived. The stitches are itchy today but I will preoccupy so that I do not touch. That would be bad. The incision just stopped hurting.
 
  All is well otherwise. We had some snow showers this morning. I miss that hour of sleep we lost. And I have to make a batch of grapefruit jam for my friend. I want to do today but we shall see. Lazy might take over. I do have some plants that need repotting and it is warm enough now. So much to do, just little ole me.
  I will let you all know if it is anything serious but it probably isnt. Happy Monday!
