Hi to all my wonderful sweet friends,
Ever wake up and have one of those days? Like those dropsy days I was
telling you about in a former post? You get up in the morning having to pee
so bad and you drop your pillow on the floor only to trip over it when you
finally get those legs off the bed. You try and walk to the bathroom and if
you have a household like mine; 3 cats and one dog and a 6'4" husband - the
trip to the bathroom can be a dangerous one. As I walk down the hallway on
my way to the bathroom my kidneys are telling me to hurry, hurry up before I
let loose - your cats and the dog decide to say good morning happily all over
your legs with each movement of each leg. So as you are walking down the
hall, very carefully trying not to step on your loving animals as they say
good morning to you and your kidneys are yelling at you, you miss seeing that
cat/dog squeaky toy you just stepped on that's wet all over from animal slim
and your foot along with your leg go into this position you never thought you
could do. You know, one of those yoga positions with your leg over your
shoulder and your husband eyeballing you as if he thinks he's in for a
treat.............well, as I slipped onto the floor into my yoga position
with my husbands eyeballs widening - all my animals were very excited that
Mommy was getting on the floor to give good morning hellos - my kidneys just
about had it - crawling to the toilet pleading with my kidneys to hold on for
one more second - I pull up the toilet seat cover, prepare yourself kidneys,
it's your turn. I sit down clumsily sideways and the toilet seat flies off!
Here I am again into another yoga position with the toilet seat on the floor
and my long hair stuck between the toilet seat and the top of the toilet. Do
you have a visual yet? The dog starts drinking the toilet water only to
slurp some water onto the cats - the cats, ALL 3 of them, with their
wonderful fear of water, jump a mile high as if they had springs on their
legs, and of course one had to land on my head and with his back claws left a
wonderful scratch down my back. owey......At this point I just didn't care
anymore and sat on the toilet without the seat just so my kidneys would stop
feeling as if they were going to explode. Boy that was a cold back end start
of a day.
I went to get my mail today. As I walk down my long dirt driveway I notice
the city workers were out there continuing their work on our road. With one
hand holding my yummy coffee, the other hand was free to wave hello to the
workers. I'm at the end of my driveway and all of a sudden I'm about 3 feet
into the ground. Have you ever fallen and feel as if it was in slow motion?
This was the very slowest motion ever! With coffee all over my face and
shirt I was wondering, how in the hell, what in the hell - then the words
came out of my mouth......ummmmm HELLLLP!!! The nice gentlemen came running
over to help me. As I look up I see all these arms reaching out for mine. I
reach up for their hands and as I get pulled up, part of my pants fell
down....how embarrassing. At least I had underwear on this morning. tee hee
Not that I don't wear underwear, I do, I have names of the days on each and
every one of them so I know what day it is...tee hee As I pull up my clothes
that have fallen 1/2 way off of me, I thank the guys who saved me and asked
what the heck happened. At the end of my driveway they were replacing the
drainage pipe and I didn't see the loose, very loose dirt. They hadn't
packed it down yet. Lucky klutzy Chrissie. As my Mom, God rest her soul,
used to say to me....I found you under a rock in a test tube with the writing
on the rock "klutz" and felt bad for you so I took you home to make you my
own. I'm sorry this email was long, I just needed to vent about my day.
Love and hugs to all,
~Chrissie xo's PS hey, at least I didn't put tanning lotion on and strip my
face like I did last year.......tee hee Wishing all my sweet honey bunnies a
pain free wonderful day with a huge smile ")
