Just a short blog today: as a reminder that when the burdens of the world start weighing too heavy, sometimes you just have to take a break. The past few days have been rather emotional as I continue to wait for resolution about my breast lump but it has also been filled with calls from the high school that my son is skipping classes and not turning in his homework. He does not need to be doing any of this since he has to go to court in a few weeks for the curfew violation and the pot charge. I have been calling defense lawyers trying to set up an appointment for myself since it appears as tho I could be dragged into his stupidity since the title of his truck and his insurance are in my name. I have yet to get any calls back but I do not plan to prepare his defense until he finds a part time job. Considering he is not even going to school, I think that is the least I can expect of him; that he should contribute to the cost of his lawyer since he was the one who blatantly broke the laws! I also feel bad for my son because he has been subpoenaed to testify against his buddy. I worry that he will refuse to testify and that could have really bad consequences! I have also been calling counselors. I have been trying to get him into family therapy and he has finally agreed!! So now I need to find someone who can help but most counselors do not want to touch us since he has the pot charge. But I will find someone and we will get the help he needs. And finally, I have not yet heard back from the builder that sunk my basement in 16" of mud after I emailed him the letter he asked I email him. I will wait a few more days and then call him. If that does not go well, then I will bombard my representatives and local higher ups with my email. I want my house back ��. NOW!!
I had the diagnostic mammograms and ultrasound yesterday. I was also able to see the lump they are investigating. I have no clue how to read those images but if they are true to size, then the lump is about the size of a small pea. Let me tell you, those diagnostic mammograms are not painless!!! And then I thought the ultrasound would be a cake walk. But no!! The ultrasound was not easy either!!! So at the end, the radiologist said that they are leaning toward a cyst but they are not sure. To help resolve the mystery, they want to do an ultrasound guided biopsy. That would mean they would inject the area with Lidocaine and then using the ultrasound, do the biopsy. They are hoping that once the biopsy needle hits the lump, it will deflate like a flat tire. They will take a chunk of the lump and get a pathology report and then leave a small Titanium bit as a marker to the dreadful, nerve-racking site. This way they can easily find the exact location in 6 months for my follow up mammogram or if the report comes back malignant, then it will be that much easier for the surgeon to find the lump. I hate how doctor's offices make you wait for appointments. How many times have you called the doctor saying I think I have a really bad chest cold and the earliest they can squeeze you in is a month from now?? Great, you could be dead from pneumonia by then!! Same thing here!! I am doing my best to not burst into tears making the appointment and the earliest they can get me in is in 2 weeks!!! I have to walk around for the next 2 weeks not knowing what is going happening!! The only consolation is that the ultrasound technician did say that even at this point, 80% of the biopsies come back with happy results. Except what worries me is that I had even better odds of a good outcome the last time I had a biopsy done and then I spent the next decade or more in and out of the radiology department of the hospital and being quarantined because of the mega high doses of radiation they were hitting me with!!! So they can quote odds to me all day long!
The one thing I did do today that made me feel better about this whole breast cancer scare is that I checked if the surgeon who did my thyroidectomy takes my medical insurance. And sure enough, he does take it. I am planning on calling his office this week and asking how it would work, in case the worst news comes from the biopsy. He is such a skillful surgeon. If you ever meet me, you will be absolutely amazed at how beautiful the thyroidectomy scar is. Remember, he did it back in the days before any arthroscopic type surgery was a choice. I have seen other women and men that went to other surgeons for their thyroidectomy and I have yet to see a prettier scar. So if it comes to my having surgery, I want to have someone I know will take the best care of me!!! Besides, the last time I saw him a few years ago when he cut some melanoma off my leg, he thought it would be a riot to introduce his son to my daughter!! Gotta love a surgeon with a good sense of humor!
This afternoon I have my second mammogram and an ultrasound as the follow up to the first mammogram that seemed to show something was not right. I have been absolutely petrified since I got the letter that something was not right. I have done extensive research on the internet in respected websites such as Mayoclinic and WebMD and all the research indicates that statistics are on my side for a happy outcome this afternoon.
But what if you have already been told once before to not worry; that everything will be fine? And what if your doctor was so shocked at the results even he had to sit down to read the results? And what if you are just a mere 29 years old and nursing your brand new baby when you are diagnosed with cancer? Yup, back in 1988 when my daughter was just 6 months old, they found cancer in my thyroid. That turned into a very drawn out fight to beat it and yet I knew from the beginning that I had one of the easiest cancers to beat.
So now when I am told by nurses or my obgyn that everything will be alright, I say that I understand that statistically speaking, I will most likely have a good outcome this afternoon. But I also know what it is like to hear those dreaded words, "YOU HAVE CANCER!" The obgyn said that most women are afraid of breast cancer because it disfigures the most prominent sign of our femininity but that does not scare me at all. I know plastic surgeons will make me look pretty good and I was probably never going to wear a bikini ever again so that is not a problem. What scares me is the one thing that keeps running thru my mind: how awful it was at my friend's daughter's wedding when the preacher asked who gave this bride away. The husband (who had lost my friend to breast cancer) answered "my wife in heaven and I do". That is what scares me. Disfiguring does not frighten me, my husband changing how he feels about me does not worry me. What I fear is not being here to enjoy all the wonderful things in store for me as a wife and mother. As heart wrenching as it will be, I want to be there when my son goes to court; I want to be there when my son graduates high school followed by my daughter graduating college and then my son eventually graduating college. I want to be there for my 25th wedding anniversary with my hunny who has already suggested that we renew our vows in Vegas with Elvis! Missing out on all those and more scare me and there are no words to console me that everything will be fine; because I have already heard that bit and then spent the next decade in and out of the hospital for treatments.
So finally my anxiousness will be relieved (hopefully) this afternoon and I can get back to spending my energy on fighting the floody builder and helping my son prepare for court. And if the news is the worst, then I will give that cancer a run like it has never seen because when my daughter gets married, it will be me and my hunny there to give the bride away, both of us in person!!!
After a rather disappointing meeting with the lawyer on Monday, I came to a very sad realization. If we are going to recover any money from the flood, we are in for an ugly legal battle. We are going to have to find civil and water-type engineers willing to testify in court that the overflow pond that sunk my basement was underbuilt or below county standards. That is going to be hard to prove now since the builder came in the morning right after the flood and made a lot of changes. We never thought to take pictures of the pond before the flood. (Oh that's right, I didn't even know that existed until that fateful Sunday night!!) There are other factors to consider but it boils down to this: I am in for one enormous legal fight in order to get any compensation for my loss. This makes no sense to me since I was doing nothing to the builder when he flooded my basement. If I were to enter his house and randomly destroy his belongings, I would not be walking free like I am today. So why does he get away with it when clearly it is his mud still in my basement 4 weeks after he destroyed my peacefulness? I do not get why the burden is mine to get back what is rightfully mine?
So hunny and I decided to contact the builder one last time before we decide to sink a whole lot of money and time into something so formidable. I called the builder last week on the one month anniversary of the flood and asked him what has happened since that wretched night. He said he would not promise anything but he asked me to write a letter detailing what we have lost; he clearly said nothing was promised but that he would look into it. I told him that I had been putting together a spreadsheet all along and that I would email him the letter as well as the spreadsheet. So when I finish this (and NASCAR is over so hunny has a clear mind), I will write that letter. Who knows where this will go but it seems a lot more promising than anything else so far in all of our communications.
I am going to have to do some research on Stenosis. That is what the doctors operated on my MIL for. Apparently it has something to do with your spinal discs and how they erode over time. It seemed like it was mighty painful for her before the surgery and of course, recovery has been very painful. I have included a link to one of my favorite medical websites, the Mayoclinic, and its write up on stenosis. All I can say after reading this article is that getting old is not for wimps!!
Otherwise, I found out the hard way that I am not yet ready for medium length leisurely walks yet. Yesterday afternoon it was so gorgeous here in the Washington, DC area that I walked a few blocks to the local Costco to return a CD. Even tho I made a point to walk extra slow and very leisurely, I knew I had overdone it well before I even reached the store. So I walked back even slower and tried to take it easy the rest of the day!!
I guess falling apart is not easy no matter what your age!!

Natural foods supermarket breaks bread to open first of three planned NH stores
Mayor Donnalee Lozeau joins Philip DeVito and Laura Derba of Whole Foods Market during its bread-breaking ceremony on Tuesday in Nashua. (Kimberly Houghton/Union Leader Correspondent)
"This is absolutely fantastic. I love the options they have here," said Noelle Blanchard of Hudson, one of the first customers to make her way through the aisles of the new store at 255 Amherst St., a former Market Basket site.
"I really enjoy fresh cooking and fresh baking, and Whole Foods has ingredients that are not easily found elsewhere," she said.
"Choices like this are lacking in the area. This is a major step in the right direction," said Strobel, who was picking out almond butter, tomato paste and other groceries.
"I started this initiative at my kitchen table, so I am quite proud of this moment," said Carlson, who hopes to expand her line of gluten-free ice cream.
"This is a wonderful addition to our community," Lozeau told the crowd before the doors officially opened. "Remember to come back and come often."

I just tried a new hot drink, RoBarr. It is roasted barley. It looks like coffee, but is naturally caffeine free and very low acid. Has a great taste, in my opinion. I've been looking for a satisfying hot drink I can enjoy without artifical sweetener, and I think this is it. The original RoBarr is good just plain to me and the bold version is good with milk.
The owner of the company is an online friend of mine, Linda, from Montana. She just started this business. I notice that I was order #12, so she is on her way. Just Google RoBarr or robarr dot com if you are interested.
Linda says some people need to try it about three times before they decide whether they like it. As she says, nothing tastes exactly like coffee but coffee. But I think if you don't think of it as coffee, you'll decide it is something better.
Hope it helps me reduce my dependence on artificial sweeteners. Have a great day, SparkFriends!!
I'm fighting that little negative voice that says, "See there. You are a klutz. You always were. It doesn't matter if you are 212 or 128 pounds, you will always be an awkward klutz." Go away detracting voice!! I know Grace is not my middle name, but I think this event could have happened to anyone.
If you read my status today, you know I fell on the treadmill. I was just merrily jogging along at my interval speed of 5 miles per hour when my thumb hit the cord between my MP3 player and my earphones. The MP3 player went flying and I tried to grab it. What exactly happened is a blur, but the next thing I knew I was on the floor with a scraped forearm, a treadmill pattern imprinted above my left knee, and a drop of blood.
Honestly, I am fine. I feel fit and strong. I'm even still glad I did my 70 minute workout this morning. What little scrapes I suffered will be gone in a week. My MP3 player, on the other hand, will not be the same. It still plays music, but the top half of the display was ruined. I guess that will be a frequent reminder to me to be a little more careful. However, I refuse to feel anything but good about my workout this morning.
If someone were handing me the Academy Award for Weight Maintenance I would thank my daughter who really pushed me to take the very first steps, thank Weight Watchers for enabling me to get to a healthy BMI, thank Leslie Sansone who got me off the couch, and thank the YMCA that enabled me to grow in strength.
But my biggest thanks goes out to SparkPeople. When I came to SparkPeople in November of 2009 I did not believe that I could maintain my 80 pound weight loss. I hoped, but truly I did not believe. Now I believe that SparkPeople is the number one reason I have successfully maintained. Thanks, thanks, and more thanks to SparkPeople and to all my SparkFriends.
I started my most recent healthy eating/weight loss journey with Weight Watchers on December 1, 2008. When I came to SparkPeople in November of 2009, I had already lost down to a healthy BMI of 25. Mostly I came to SparkPeople because the Weight Watcher program seemed too imprecise for maintenance. One point could be from about 25 calories to over 110. You got to eat more if something was high in fiber and less if it was high in fat. I thought tracking calories would be much more accurate. And although I have always love my Weight Watcher leader and benefit from the meetings I now attend approximately twice a month, I recognized that the emphasis at WW was on losing weight. I had lost weight many times before. What I had not done successfully was maintain.
On SparkPeople I found exactly what I was looking for and so much more. I tried strength training seriously for the first time. Not that WW did not encourage strength training, they did. But not in as direct and understandable a way for me as SparkPeople did. I read many articles I could apply to my eating and exercise programs. I tracked 75 nutrients for months. There are actually groups of people who had lost weight, some of them even around my age, and were working to keep it off. I joined teams and I made friends. I had never felt as understood before in my life. I found with SparkPeople, and emphasizing healthy eating and activity, I was able to lose below BMI of 21, a weight I had wanted to be since I was a teenager.
Now I have decided to try the new Weight Watcher program. My roots are deep in Weight Watchers. I first joined in 1968. I've made my goal weight many times. My experience has been that each time they change the program it is better. So, I want to try it. I am glad that they no longer double penalize fats. Used to be in the WW formula, the calories of fat was considered and then there was an extra penalty. One of the biggest changes for me coming to SparkPeople after Weight Watchers was that I needed to dramatically increase my fat intake to meet SparkPeople's guidelines even when I got in the 2 teaspoons of healthy oils Weight Watchers recommends. I plan to double count on WW and SparkPeople to compare at least one typical day a week, to make sure I'm nourishing myself as well as I know how.
I also intend to continue to use information I've learned at SparkPeople. Weight Watchers does tell you to watch your sodium, but until I started actually counting my sodium on SparkPeople I thought I ate a very moderate amount. Unfortunately, not true. WW has made some effort not to count high sodium things as what they call "PowerFoods," but they don't actually count sodium. I've become much more aware of sodium. If I find on my double count days that my sodium is going up, I will track more often.
I suspect that Weight Watchers corporation probably would not like the way I appreciate SparkPeople. And probably SparkPeople would not appreciate the way I value Weight Watchers. But for me, they are both major reasons that my life has improved in so many ways. I love them both!!
Yesterday I managed, in good form, to complete 2 sets of 15 reps at 220 pounds on the horizontal leg squat machine. WooHoo!! I started at the Y and on this machine at the end of February 2010. It was either 77 or 88 pounds that I started with and found challenging. I probably have it written down at the gym, but whichever it was, I've come a long way. I'm definitely getting stronger -- more than doubled the weight I can handle on this machine.

hi, i have some shimano xt discs. When i purchased them i got the small rotors for the front and rear. I have started hitting some bigger descents as of late and feel the xt's dont have enough power.
Will buying a larger front rotor get me more stopping power? or do i need a new brand of brake? If i go bigger on the rotor does it come with the proper adaptor to make my brake fit it?
thank you,

A Son Tracked Down His Father's First Car, 24 Years After He Sold It
Twenty-four years ago, a man in Indiana named Rick Lookebill had to sell the first car he ever owned...a 1972 Ford Mustang Mach 1. And since then, he'd been trying to track it down without any luck. Then his son decided to look into it, found the car in Florida, and surprised him by revving the engine in Rick's front yard. His family videotaped the reaction, and it's priceless.

|A good intention that will probably go nowhere
|Written by News Desk
|Thursday, 21 November 2013 19:58
You can imagine how difficult it was to pick myself up off the floor when I read the recent report about Alabama State Senator Cam Ward's proposal. Ward, a Republican from Alabaster, said he intends to propose a bill that will lower the required number of signatures for ballot access. According to a news reports on al.com, Ward wants to make it easier for independent candidates and candidates from smaller parties to be able to run and have their name on the ballot. The number of signatures required to get on the ballot in Alabama is three (3) percent of the votes cast in the last governor's race in the applicable district. Ward wants to reduce the number to 1.5 percent.
The argument established parties always present is that softer requirements could bring too many people to the ballot. That point has yet to be proved and Ward claims that states with lesser requirements do not have those problems.
The real reason most politicians do not want the change is because it may be damaging to incumbents and that should not be a surprise to any of us. What will be a surprise? If this even gets close to passage by the legislature. I'm sure the Republicans will be against because they are the party in power and the Democrats will be against it in areas that are protected for them after years of gerrymandering.
While I agree with Ward and praise him for his efforts at making elections fairer, I would be even happier if he would introduce legislation that required the parties to pay for their own primary elections. There is no reason why the taxpayers should foot the bill for a political party to enjoy a process and use public resources that intentionally refuses to serve all of the people. Both the Republicans and Democrats certify candidates based upon their own rules and therefore can forbid someone from participating in the democratic process that is funded with public dollars.
The political parties should step forward and pay for their own primary elections instead of the taxpayer bearing the costs. I don't think that will ever happen since we can't depend on the parties to do the right thing.
As far as the upcoming legislative session is concerned it appears that the Republican majority is making plans to get a few things done and leave early. According to the latest edition of Inside Alabama Politics (IAP), a compromise of sorts has been reached between lawmakers who want to meet three days a week and finish the session on April 1, and other lawmakers that want to meet just two days a week and consume all 105 calendar days allotted for a session and adjourn a couple of days before the end of April. It appears that lawmakers will meet three days a week for the first couple of weeks of the session, and then rotate between two-days and three-days a week, ending the session on April 8.
The motivation for this is obvious. There is no need to do all of the people's work in any year of an election. It looks like Republicans are ready to hurry the session along by passing budgets, avoiding controversy, getting a little work done and going home as early as possible. IAP also reported that controversial issues such as repealing Common Core education standards will not be on the agenda.
I think Republicans have an additional motivation to leave early this year. Sure, they want more time to raise more campaign money. But the rumors are running rampant about the Grand Jury investigation in Auburn, which most everyone believes is aimed at Speaker of the House Mike Hubbard and possibly other Republicans. If a minute amount of the rumors are true the final Grand Jury action will send tremors throughout the state. The number of total witnesses subpoenaed by the Grand Jury seems to grow everyday and, if the speculation is true, many of the witnesses are members of the Legislature. All of this leaves me with the thought that Republican incumbents need extra time to weather a storm. In other words, they need to get back home quickly because they have a lot of explaining to do.
