An Oldie But a Goodie! A Post From the Past

This post is being moved one I've abandonded.  It's from the past, but still funny reading!  Enjoy!

Yesterday I saw the dermatologist at 7:30 a.m.   I guess going that early I didn't think she'd hurt me.  WRONG!  I had a small growth near the nail bed of the middle finger of my right hand.  The nail was getting deformed.  My doctor determined it wasn't a wart, but a growth that needed removing.  Okay, it was time for the annual skin cancer screening anyway.  You do that each year, don't you?   Yes?

I mentioned I had a mole on my neck that was itching so it was decided it would be removed, also.  When she did the skin cancer screening, she noticed a change in a mole on my leg.  Yep, she'd remove it, also.  I was my usual quiet self (NOT!) during this time.  The only part that hurt was the "quick stick" for the finger to deaden it.  Oh yeah, the other part that hurt was the co-pay that had gone to $50 from $35.  Not her fault, though.

I come out with three BandAids on me with instructions to keep the places dry for 24 hours and the usual - ointment, bandaids, etc.  No problem except keeping my right hand dry.  That meant I couldn't do anything right?  WRONG!

I ended up mixing, making, and cooking Bacon Cheddar Turkey Burgers.  Tried keeping my finger out of the mixture and did well until I put them on George Forman.  Wash hands, new bandaid.   The rest of the day was changing bandaids and trying not to do much.  Didn't work well though....

We did take time out to go to church and what a trip that was!  Our house is 2 miles from the church.  We go the same way every week.  Apparently I've been in the ozone, because there is a new church building that just went up about a mile from the house.   I asked David had he noticed it before.  His response:  "You know how those church plants are...go up over night."  Sheeeesh!

I knew we were going to the Middle Eastern Food Festival with some friends for lunch, so I grabbed a quick shower and washed my hair.  Neat trick with thick hair and trying to keep one hand dry.  Didn't work so well.  I decided I'd just go with my hair curly and wet, but decided a needed my Frizz Serum on my hair so it wouldn't look quite so wild.
Not me, but you get the idea!

I brought my bottle of serum to David and said "Put out your hand."  I squirted the clear, greasy gel into his hands and told him to rub his hands together.  Knowing he's an engineer, I should have known better than to do that!  He rubbed them together just like putting lotion on this hands!  He looked like Lady McBeth wringing her hands!!!  I said NOOOOOOO, and explained he needed to put it on my hair.  Before I could explain how, he smeared it right over the top of my head.  Parts of my hair are stiff and frizz free and other parts of my hair are just wild!  What was I thinking!



Can't wait to see what tomorrow holds!
