YAY! I’m still not supposed to type a whole lot, but a little bit is better than what I did have. :)

Apparently, all is on-track with my recovery & healing process, and I start therapy on Monday.

Corny movies and re-runs. I’ve discovered an old love. I’d forgotten exactly how much I loved this show.

I love Will & Grace!!!

Only a couple for this week.

Seriously, I do NOT understand. Why do people like this even bother to get married?? It makes me so angry.

Yeah, we’re all freaks in some way, honey.

Due to the nature of my recovery, I’m not sure how much typing I’ll be able to do for awhile. This might be the last thing anyone hears from me online for a little while. Y’all think about me, k?

It still makes my tummy jump and my face smile when I hear a voice mail or message from him. I talk to him several times a day, every day, but those messages are still special. Isn’t that nice? I love him. :)

Another thing which moves me - and about which I had totally forgotten until just a few minutes ago - is the original theme song and intro to the Star Trek (fairly short-lived) series, “Enterprise.” I just … mmm. Love it. Check it out.

Here’s my thank you. Foxmarks - you rule!! If y’all use Firefox and don’t have Foxmarks, I would suggest you check it out - even if you don’t use multiple computers. It’s nice to have a back-up. Were it not for Foxmarks, I’d be up that creek without that paddle right about now!

Except clear liquids up until 7:00 a.m. Tuesday morning.

That means no food. I’m accustomed to eating a little something every two hours. If I miss, peoples’ lives become endangered.

That also means no coffee.

My poor husband.

HAHAHA! Classic!!!

In my opinion, that is definitely a promise to break. Good for you.

It’s not, honey. It’s really not.

Niiiice. And then you kicked his ass, divorced him, and took everything he had, right? I hope so. At least the “kicked his ass” part, anyway.

By shopping store specials (at 3 different stores, mind you) and using coupons, we ended up saving $64.92 on our total grocery bill this week. Plus, that gave us tons of meat. I think the most impressive amount saved was on the boneless skinless chicken breasts. They were on sale for $1.67 per pound, and I believe they’re usually around $3.89 or more per pound. We snatched up four packs and spent $17 instead of $40!! WOO HOO!!!

My freezer is full and happy. And tonight, we will celebrate by having chicken fried rice. :D

It turns out that GMail has a security hole you could sail an oil tanker through. It also turns out there’s a fix that any non-techie who can follow step-by-step instructions should be able to follow. If you use GMail, please read this post, and apply the fix.

It would be my suggestion that everyone read this article and follow the instructions!

Granted, I can see the humor in this - but as a public ad in a fast food restaurant? Wow. I really am stunned!
