Day 2 - Where You'd Like to be in Ten Years

HOLY CRAP - people who  made this challenge, do you know I am pretty much elderly??  I will be lucky to be unburied (also known as - NOT DEAD)!!!  Just kidding - my number one thing of my list of where I'd like to be is definitely alive, well, healthy, happy and mobile.  And,, along with that, I obviously want my family - my husband, my kids, my grandkids and all the rest - to be alive, well, healthy, happy and mobile, also!!


  • I want to be out of debt or at least pretty dang close to being so.
  • I want to be retired from my current job - I know that means I would have to be working somewhere else until social security age, but - I feel ten more years would be WAAAY too much.  
  • I would want that job that I am working at to be in the travel industry - preferably in the airline business.
  • That way - I could visit many more places, far and near - - I would love to have those flight benefits again where I could go places, see people and do many more things!!!
  • I want to be an active grandma - and the apple of my grandkids eyes!!  I want them to think I am the coolest grandma ever - - even though they will be 21, 17, 14, 13 and 13!!!  I want to be the person they wanna hang out with!!
  • I want to see what they are growing into - the very best thing in my life has been watching my kids turn into the adults they are.  And they are amazing - I want to see what my grandkids are in ten years.  I expect all of them to be amazing, too!!!  Though they will still be children, it will be amazing to know what they are like in that ten years.
  • Lastly, but not leastly, I want to be THINNER and in much better SHAPE!!  
  • AND - if possible - and if there is any way in the world - I would love the be a LOTTERY WINNER!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!  It doesn't have to be like the $300 million kind - I would be happy with the little $10 million one.  

I know, it's a pretty benign list and pretty boring - but, it's who I am and what I want to see happen in my life.

CoCo's Journey - Ah, Shit!!!

I am exhausted.  Physically.  Mentally.  Is there anything else??  Because I'm sure that is exhausted, too. I went to the doctor today.  I knew it was going to be a lot of information.  I had made a list.  I had my notebook.  I printed out all of the information from my emergency room visit on Saturday to take with me.  Blood tests.  CT Scan.  Urine test.  Plus, I brought my CT scan from March, because I noticed on it that I have a small umbilical hernia.  I was ready.  And I knew what I needed to fight for. I also came armed with gifts.  I love this doctor and his medical assistant so much.  I took them a gift of tortilla chips and homemade salsa.  And I wrote a love note on the bag.  That is how much I appreciate him.  They both loved it.  It even made Hayley get a little weepy, cuz she was having a bad day. I gave him all of my documents, and he went through the blood tests and such fr...

CoCo's Journey - Pre-surgery thoughts

I've been hanging out in my house for the most part.  Hiding from germs.  Hiding from phlegm.  Hiding from coughs.  Hiding from sneezes.  Hiding from snot. Trying to stay healthy until surgery day.  Not that I can hide very well.  Roommate daughter is literally coughing a lung up.  So, she can only hang out with me if she is wearing a mask.  I am bathing in hand sanitizer when I remember.  I'm taking elderberry gummies with a bunch of zinc and vitamin C in order to boost my immunities.   Poor Roommate. Not that I would know much if I did have a cold.  My nose has been running constantly since the day Jeff was pushed up my nostril.  I have a constant sore throat, due to the tube rubbing in the back of my throat.  The worst part is when I'm laying down and roll onto my left side.  It starts to move around and I feel like I'm choking.  It doesn't do it every time, but most of the time.  And I don...

CoCo's Journey - The Notorious Dr. Z

When I get my dressing charges I must wear a mask.  The nurse, too.  So we don't get germs on it!! So, I thought I would share a little bit more about how I got here.  But I'm going to be discussing how I was medically gaslighted, (gaslit -- who knows) and was not treated properly.  And due to that, I am now where I am. When I had my collapse on November 19, 2022, after my knee replacement, I was taken to the emergency room.  The doctor there is the one that told me I was malnourished.  He told me I needed to follow up with my primary care physician (PCP).  When I went to make an appointment with said PCP, I found out my PCP had left the organization, and I no longer had one.  After explaining my situation, they decided to set me up with an appointment with Dr. Z.  I was fine with it, because I needed to get to a doctor.  My first visit, he seemed OK.  But I found him a bit odd.  I'm completely fine with odd, as long as they kn...
