Monday Musings


First off I want to wish everyone a belated Happy Saint Patrick's Day! The photo above is of a plaque hanging in our hallway.

Secondly, I'd like to thank everyone for their prayers, love, support and positive thoughts! 

We'll have the results of all the tests and two biopsies from this morning in two weeks. We go back on 4/3. My blood pressure was through the roof before hand (I didn't know what to expect, pain wise or otherwise) so my doctor came in and had a very long & good talk with me before the procedures. He still believes my chances for cervical cancer are extremely low to nill, but, he knows I have a depressed immune system so he feels that most of this is to be extra safe and to confirm/disprove the positive hpv result. If the hpv result is still positive, he feels my chances of my body being able to rid itself of it are very good even with my health issues/depressed immune system. He also believes if the hpv is positive, it's something I've had for a very long time and it's just likely now showin because of my long depressed immune system. 

I'm relieved so this part is over and done with! I'm uncomfortable and in pain at times (thankfully Advil is helping with that and he says I should feel fine in about a week) plus tired, but so relieved. I'm sure I'll get anxious again as 4/3 draws near, but for now, I'm focusing on the relief and healing. 

I'm a worrier, but your support has been such a comfort to me these last couple of weeks. I can't thank y'all enough!

An Enchanted Garden Party

Welcome to my post! To visit other participants, please head over to the Practical Magic Blog Party 2010 blog. I must say that while I think Practical Magic the movie is adorable, I think the novel is incredible. And that is where I gleaned my inspiration from for these festivities. Gardens are mysterious, magical and enchanting, don't you think? Now follow me out into the garden, I have everything all ready for you, including music! (Turn your volume on). *Update: Music has reverted to my regular Fall soundtrack, 9/28/2010* For all of you non Practical Magic Blog Party folks, head on over to NJ Through My Eyes where I've posted 2 new slide-shows today; one is a preview of a new project I'm working on!

2009 Halloween Fete! (Saturday October 17, 2009) **UPDATED!** This shindig is still going strong!

Welcome! I'm so happy to have had so many visitors already! I must apologize for not being ready for you earlier! I also apologize for the wacky font sizes throughout my post. No matter how hard I try, I can't correct them. If music doesn't begin playing shortly after your arrival, scroll down until you see a purple music widget begin to load in the left hand column and wait until you hear the music before scrolling back up here. Happy Halloween Fete 2009! Love and Spookiness to All! ~Jo (Continue scrolling down until the end of the post) Outside, it's a gloomy & cold day here on the NJ coast. Many a restless Spirit wander here on days like this. One can never be too sure if the fog & mist are just as they seem. Inside, it is warm yet equally frightful! Creepy crawlies have gotten into the food & drink, I so hope you don't mind! What with all of the party hopping we're doing, I didn't want you to bust a gut, so I've laid out some Pumpkin Cook...

Welcome & thank you for visiting my post! For more Halloween fun today & throughout the weekend, visit A Fanciful Twist . For more Halloween & Autumn Fun, check out my "Autumn Tuesday" & "Halloween Thursday" posts by clicking on their labels in the left hand column. ~Happy Halloween & Pumpkin Blessings! *Update for those friends wondering, I put this together prior to surgery yesterday to make sure I would be able to post it for today! (Though it didn't post at 12:01am like it was supposed to). Anyhoo, I'm home and resting (uncomfortably). Surgery went well, my kidney tube and stone are gone! I have an internal stent on the left hand side but I'm okay with that because it comes out in the doctor's office in 2-3 weeks (no back to the hospital) and especially because it meant they could take that nephrostomy tube out! (The last nearly 2 weeks of that 15 weeks was rough with that thing, my body was simultaneously trying to heal aroun...
