Day 11 -- Put Your IPOD on Shuffle and List the Ten Songs that Come Up First

I was really excited about this challenge.  A couple of weeks ago, when KayeLynn was home, she needed to find something from her "baby box".  When they were little, I got boxes to put in anything of memorial significance in.  Like their hospital bracelets from when they were born, report cards - - stuff like that.  Each of my kids have one and they are all still at my house.  Well, her box was under the stairs - and we had to dig it out.  Ted insisted the only stuff under the stairs was KayeLynn's stuff - but, low and behold, there was a bunch of other stuff.  Including all the Disney and other kids VHS movies, a bunch of Ted's movies and a whole lot of CD's.  So we went through the CD's and I took out what I wanted and ripped them to my IPOD.  It's kind of funny the different phases the CD's represented.  So - here goes my list of songs:


1 - A Boy Named Sue - - Johnny Cash  (went through a big Johnny Cash phase after Walk the Line with Reese Witherspoon and Joaquin Phoenix).

2 - Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me - - Elton John (I have always adored Elton - - I wanted to marry him when I was a tween - -still love his music)

3 - Let Me Be There - Olivia Newton John (another childhood adoration)

4 - Have a Little Faith in Me - Jewel from the Phenomenon soundtrack (love the song)

5 - Rhiannon - Fleetwood Mac (first 45 I ever bought!!  I am sorry if you are so young you have no clue what I am talking about)

6 - You Wouldn't Know Love - Cher (I didn't even know I owned this CD until I went through them.  Couldn't remember buying it)

7 - Cheers to the Freakin' Weekend - Rhianna (lovin' me some Rhianna - - don't let the basatads get ya down)

8 - Folsom Prison Blues - Joaquin Phoenix from the Walk the Line soundtrack

9 - Rock This Country - Shania Twain (went through a BIG country music phase.  This was actually Crystal's CD I think - - I just ended up with it in my box of CD's)

10 - Scarborough Fair - Simon and Garfunkel (from my growin' up years - my sister had their Greatest Hits album and I used to listen to it all the time  - so I bought the CD when I was an old lady).

  1. Those are some good ones. Although I'm not so sure about Olivia Newton John. I love Jhonny Cash Though.

    1. Olivia Newton John is from my tween years. She was HOT back then, beaucoup HOT!! And, I found Cher a bit odd, too. But she has some great tunes for when you're working out.

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...
