Yankee Curse

Rick said something about me not dying on him. 
I said, "No way, we're going together.
hmm...Murder-suicide, he says dryly.

OMG, that was the best laugh I've had in weeks. God love this man. 
It hit me at the perfect time and made me laugh out loud. Probably not funny to anyone else but me but that's all that matters. 😊

Okay saw my surgeon yesterday.
I had Rick come with me because he has a lot of questions and I wanted him to get the answers from the doctor.

She was as pleased as me about my results from yesterday's colonoscopy. 
I see the gyno on April 5th. Then the two of them will sync up schedules to do my surgery and I will be better because I refuse not to be anything else. The doctor and I are assuming around Easter but not knowing the other doctor's schedule she couldn't say for certain of course. 

Rick loved the doctor and said that her bedside manner was great but her compassion and her ability to explain and lay it all out in such a good way to understand and answer all your concerns was impressive. I told him this is why I like female doctors I find them more compassionate and they explain it all very well and not in a condescending way.

On our drive home from the doctor's, we saw the mean man walking his dog who called me a damn Yankee and then refused to speak with me. 
Rick said, "hey maybe that guy gave you a Yankee curse. I mean since moving here everything bad has happened to you."
I said, "True but then why not you? you're a Yankee too."
He said, "Yeah but I'm a hillbilly so they give me some grace"

True.

Good news, by summer you're going to be feeling like your old self again and if you play your cards right you can take that to the bank.

Jean, from your mouth to God's ear. I'm banking on it! Rick promised me some time at the shore when this is done. I'm living for that!

You have to give the mean man a curse right back.

Then, if you are a hillbilly, you can get away with a lot. They have many anachronisms that can shut up any naysayer. They won't understand them.

Mike,I will have to check my incantation book.😄

Susan, hey I am not the hillbilly but they flock to him like flies on shit. I find it funny and sure love to pick on him about it.

I'm happy that your colonoscopy went well. Rick is a hell of wonderful man. You both should be doing great when the summer comes. Maybe a trip to Canada might be in the offering, maybe come to a little place called Amherstburg, Ontario and having lunch with a guy called Cruisin Paul. Maybe.
