California Adventure - Day Two

OK, so we found out we are a bunch of old ladies that really can't keep up. We have the greatest of intentions, but, we lost steam. Around 6:00, we were done, we were finished, we were exhausted.

We went to California Adventure today. I broke my sunglasses yesterday, so the very first order of business for me was to get me some new ones. I got me some very awesome and cool black sunglasses with pink Mickey's on them. They are awesome, freaking cool!!



We then went over and got our fastpasses for Soaring Over California. If you have never been on this ride, and you get the opportunity, you must GO!!! Two things to remember; ask for ROW ONE and SNIFF!!!! On row one, you don't have feet dangling in front of you, you're way up high and it's AWESOME!!!

Then we went over to the Tower of Terror. My sister Cheryl and my sister-in-law Wendy have never been on these rides, so this was new to them. We screamed and laughed and giggled on this ride. It's very cool to go on these rides with people for the first time.





I have to say, we are having a great time and so much fun. I was kind of worried about this trip, not sure how all these different personalities, shoved in one room together would do - but, we've done great and we are having a ball!!

    This is reminding me of the "girl" trips my grandma would take us on once a year. My mom & her sister..her daughter (my cousin/sister) me & grandma. One year we went to Hawaii...Grandma would always call it an early night after dinner & then tell me & my cousin..."now u girls don't stay out late"!!

CoCo's Journey - Answers!! Finally!!!

 Today I finally got answers!!!  I do not have Cirrhosis!!!  I am Pre-Cirrhotic.  Very close to that precipice but still not falling over the edge and falling into a place that I cannot get out of.  I had seen my gastric bypass doctor a while ago - and was given the wrong information.  I think he was looking at the headline and had not read the story.  It's something I'm good at, too.   My doctor explained that when I was overweight, the fat in my body was damaging my liver.  Then I had gastric bypass and that should have helped my fatty liver.  But, then I wasn't able to absorb the calories, so I became malnourished. My liver was not getting the proteins I needed in order to supply my body with the proper nourishment.  Every organ you have needs protein, and it starts in the liver.  So - the malnourishment started to affect my liver.  Leading to the state I'm in now. The thing I need to work on is getting off the diu...

CoCo's Journey - Purpura?? What is that??

 Defnition: Purpura - noun - the appearance of purple or red spots on the skin and mucous membranes caused by bleeding underneath the skin due to small blood vessels bursting.  These spots can range in size from small dots (petechiae) to larger patches (ecchymosis or bruises) and may indicate underlying health issues.   Sadly, when people see my arms, I get many responses and questions.   From how are you doing?  How are you feeling?  OR what is up with your arms???  My BFF literally said, what the hell is wrong with your arms?? Like I had been out in the parking lot bruising myself up intentionally.  And we had just talked about it a couple of weeks before when she saw it. Are they pretty??  No.  But, they truly are the way I know the status of my health.  Between seeing this stuff show up on my arms and my overall general state of strength lets me know if I should be concerned.   Right now, my arms are actually look...

Day 9 - If You Could Have Any Job in the World, What Would it Be?

I was thinking and thinking and thinking about this.  I have had a very long career at a job I love.  I don't always love it, but, for the most part - it's been an awesome job and career.  I always tell people that I want to work at an airline, because I want to have the benefit of flying wherever and whenever I wanted - so if I had thought about it years ago - instead of law enforcement, I probably should have found a job in the travel industry - - but, that didn't work.  And, I fully intend one day to have those flight benefits. But, I am thinking of what I would have loved my career to be.  If I could have chosen the path of my life, I would have chosen to be a stay-at-home mom.  I can't think of a more fulfilling career than to have been more available to my kids and been there more for them.  My kids were raised by a mom who worked away from the home and spent a lot of time away from home.  I worked shift work, so there were days they never...
