Day 29 - List Ten People, Alive or Dead, You Would Invite to Dinner - Include the Dinner Menu

I literally avoided this entry yesterday because I am befuddled by it.  This one is a tricky, tricky one. I want a fun and interesting table - so there would be hilarity and interesting people to keep me entertained. So, here, let's try:


  1. Phil Keoghan - host of Amazing Race - he is so well traveled and so interesting.  I think he could bring some interesting stories to the table and he could raise that one eyebrow at Sheldon.
  2. Jim Parsons - the person who plays the character based on Ted - wanna see how the real compares with the character.
  3. Bill Engvall - he is hilarious!!!  I would have poster boards available for him.  "here's your sign"
  4. Red Skelton - just a funny guy from the past
  5. Lucille Ball - need a funny girl from the past, too - and I loved watching all of her television shows
  6. Henry Cho - I love him.  
  7. Rhianna - need someone to sing to me "Cheers to the Freakin' Weekend" - need an anthem
  8. Adele - need someone to sing a sad ballad to me - so when things get out of control, we can bring it down a notch
  9. VanGogh - because I want an abstract painting of the event
  10. Bill Gates - because I just want him to give me some cash when it's all done (I would accept Mark Zuckerburg, too - one billionaire is as good as another)

As for dinner - we are going buffet style and hanging out in the living room.  We will be eating sloppy joes, potato salad, veggie tray - - - for dessert - pie.

And just so you know - and I am sure you can already tell - I pulled most of this out of my a$$ - because I had absolutely no clue what else to do.  I am absolutely committed to finishing this challenge!!!!!!!!!!!!

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...

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...
