Month of Celebration!
« on: September 03, 2007, 05:26:09 pm »
Yes, this is my month to celebrate my bug.  It was 24 years ago an Infectious Disease specialist looked directly into my eyes, and stated that I should get my affairs in order because there was little doubt that I would see Christmas of 1983!

Guess he was wrong, so now I take a sip of my celebratory cocktail, (Cranberry Juice and Rum) and light up the pipe and spend a nice evening BBQing some nice fat pork ribs for dinner!

Love this life most of the time, so I just thought I'd share this milestone with you guys here.

Peace and happiness!! ;D ;D ;D :-* :-*

That puts a whole new spin on this Labor Day for me!  I am so happy, I shall lift my hamburger (shortly coming off the grill) to you, Sir!  Goodness knows you have invested plenty of labor in dealing with this bug, so I say:

Drink Up, Light Up and Eat Up!

Tim, my dear sweet Tim. Before I sleep tonight I will reheat my chamomile (which went cold during cat drama - see Off Topic for details), sip it slowly and make a toast to you and your good health.

Thank you for being in the world and thank you for being a part of my world.

Be hugging you for real in 2 weeks time. Roadtrip, baby...OH YEAH! ;D

But for now... (((((((Tim))))))) Drink, smoke, eat and be merry!

Hi Tim~

Stories like yours give us all hope!  I am smiling, thinking of you as you celebrate today!  Wouldn't you just love to call that same doc from 1983 and say "Phooey!" to him?  LOL  Or have you already done that?

Here's to LIVING!  Tim, I raise my glass to you today!

Thank you all so very much for joining me in my celebration.....

For those of you who might be interested, Cindy mentioned the doctor that said that to me, and yes, I have thought of him often, but I seriously doubt that he is still on the planet, as he was about 70 at the time this took place.  I am sure happy that I did outlive him, though he had a handicap from the start!  (No Faith)

Love you all, and thanks so very much!

BTW, maybe you misunderstood the doc back then. Maybe he didnt say to get you affairs in order, but rather "do you want to have an afffair?".   ;)

You people are all so very cool, and I am grateful to have you respond to my bit of celebration of life this month.  The dinner turned out spectacular, and today the weather gods found some grace for us, and we are finally into our fall season with the temps staying in the 80's.  So this morning I got the bike out and went into town to do some errands and just enjoy the wind in the face.  Looking forward to some really wet days as huricane Henrietta is heading right for Cochise County, so button down the hatches, it's going to be a bumpy ride for those living on dirt roads.  What a wonderful life it is. 

Hope y'all are doing just great this fine Tuesday!
