I am an East Coast expatriate hiding out in the Midwest...

I am an urban gal living in the suburbs and occasionally hiding in the country

I am a yoga practitioner, fitness enthusiast, believer in the mind-body-spirit connection...

I am a mid-life "revert" to the Roman Catholic faith in which I was raised and which has become an enormous source of support, encouragement, inspiration, and joy in my life...

I am a mom, sister, daughter, and wife...

I am an explorer; adventurous and curious about the world and people around me...

I am educated in the formal sense but I gain insight through everyday living...

I created this blog at a time of great fear and apprehension in my life. I chose to sustain it because of the discoveries about myself and the world around me that it has revealed.



What you can expect to find here:
  • the documentation of a love-hate relationship with the greater Philadelphia area
  • reminiscing about the good-ole-days (the 80's!)
  • complaints about my various ailments and injuries, both real and imagined
  • pictures and stories of gardening, decorating, shopping, sewing
  • my love of irony
  • links to kooky news stories
  • way too much scatological musing for sane people

    twinkle

    Today I went back to see the surgeon, so that he could check on my breast incision to make sure I am healing well.

    It was odd...but kind of nice...

    Perhaps he has very few patients under 40..I don't know...or maybe I was having a good hair and makeup day...

    But I could swear he had a bit of a twinkle in his eye and spring in his step when he came in to examine me and afterward, when we talked for awhile about health issues...and then general personal things...

    I think there was a slight undercurrent of flirtation ...but nothing remotely offensive...I guess its hard for a young doctor, not matter HOW professional and clinical, to stand in front of a topless woman his own age, feeling her breasts and not be somewhat, on some level, um, "interested" I guess you could say!  I also think that perhaps its refreshing for him to get younger vibrant patients, it breaks up the monotony of the day.

    Well, anyway, he was very kind, gave me alot of information to take with me, follow-up materials for my other doctors, and heck, made me feel good about myself, too! :)

    I m feeling better; hopefully good enough to have a good workout tomorrow as I have been missing that so much!
