So why do I feel three days older than dirt? I'm so frustrated right now with the VA, with life, with damn near everything actually. I won't go into any of that in this blog, since you all have your own problems to deal with. Remember that BUTTON story that Grover posted? If that damned button was right here, right now, I'd jump all over that thing... in a freaking heartbeat, and have NO regrets about it after!

Anyway, I hope everyone else has a great day. I gotta go get shots and blood work and deal with the VA pension thingie, and prepare for hernia surgery sometime later this month.

Hugs 'n stuff

Hi Cath,

I wish for you, as the song lyrics of Little Orphan Annies go, that; "The sun will come out tomorrow..."

Be well hon and...

with love,

Once in a while I bare my soul, more often my soles bear me.

Maybe with luck,

the knife will slip?

Happy birthday. The trick I have to keep telling myself is not dwell on everything that's screwed up (most of my life) but to look at what is going okay or even doing well. The fact you've made it this far speaks reams, dear.

Keep plugging, you sound like a survivor. And as many here already know, the button would not cure everything. At best it would only help you have a better attitude about the problems.

Hugs

Dirt

Catherine;

Dirts not a bad thing we are made of dirt, Aneasy way to stay young is celebrate anniversaries of you twenty ninth birthday so you are now celebrating your 34th anniversary of your 29th birthday.
I'm three years younger than you, I have the VA to contend with on a fulll time basis.
if the doctor that does your hernia is Korean you may be singing soprano after surgery.

Any have a great day, enjoy your life one day at a time and watchout for older gentlemen seems their eyes sight goes quicker.I had two older vets hit on me at the hospital last week .

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

I remember my 63rd birthday well and as you write we all have our problems, but for me that is four years away by now so I have decided to let that be a small part of my life, and now I celebrate my birthdays wih happines again and I wish you the same. A good day for starting the rest of our lives.
Warm hugs from

63rd? My Dad had his 83rd last month

and is currently driving around Germany France, Spain and Portugal for a month BY HIMSELF with his arthritis, an artifcal lens in each eyeball and a cow valve in place of his aortic valve.

Says he feels busier since retirement. We had to get a waiver from the EPA to light the candles on his cake.

-- snicker --

Hang in their Cathy and maybe when you're 83 you can be the little old lady from Pasadenia terrorizing the neighbors with your sports car.

Good luck with the hernia.

Happy Birthday,Catherine.

May you have many more of them,and remember,it's always a brighter day tomorrow.
This old bird was 63 some 14 years ago,and despite the problems that one has to
suffer,I still enjoy life as I don't fancy the alternative.You,Catherine,are a
survivor and while your friends on BCTS support you everything will work out.
Love and best wishes,ALISON
