We Are Deep In the Heart of Texas

Nomadic seasons of farming adventures with nature thrown in to include; a pinch of family, snippets of friends, counting our blessings, paying IT forward, home school, and the spicy things I decide to rant about.

Hawt Flashing, Time Marches On

Man! I don't know about you ladies but, I am so not liking the peri-menopausal phase of my life.  I ____ (fill in the blank yourself) hate, deride, recoil, shudder at, abhor, repelled by, detest, loathe, resent, despise, scorn,  Hawt Flashes.

Good Grief, You know the kind of sweat where if you start; you have to cool down just to shower or else it just does no good.  I mean dang, some days I have to change clothes several times even if I am not outside in the Fire Ball Heat of South Texas.  

Then add to the HAWT FLASHES there is the snappiness that reminds me of a spoiled chihuahua in its momma human's arms.  ANNOYING, yet not really effective unless said retorts leave the lips of the hawt flashing woman or chihuahua gets loose from the one it is protecting.

Now on to something else.  Hubby's lasik went well; he can see better than 20/20 in one eye and had the other one done for reading.  Not bad, recovery was quick he drove us home from the doctors' office after a check up the following day.  Next year it will be my turn.  I am really stoked about the process. 

Let me tell ya, in the lobby there was televised laser operations going on as they happened.  YEP, I watched my own hubby's eyes get 'lazzed,' the top layer scored off and, then the rapid fire laser to reshaped his eye.  I was kinda wigged out and my own eyes were tearing in empathy to what I thought must be extremely painful but, not.  

This morning, I submitted the last form to get reimbursed from the FSAFEDS for his surgery.  I hate the process but, it is a godsend since we have 'paid' for the surgery in advance through the FSAFEDs Health Savings Account.  Next year, will be the first time since I was a elementary school kid without coke bottle glasses.  So, I am super stoked.

Any way, what have ya'll been doing? 

I would recommend you head over to Gregs at Pitt Rehab blog.  He gently reminds me everyday; no matter what is going on in my world.  Life is worth living and to suck the marrow out with ones teeth.  He recently went bow hunting and bagged two deer in one trip.  Now, why is that amazing???????

You will have to go check it out for yourself.  Greg is a super human being in my estimation.

Hope your slices of heaven is as beautiful as ours.
