Re: the nursing home

Oh Deb-- what a bunch of jerks these women are!

I wonder what would have happened if after hearing it you just stared them down.

No words, nothing nasty just stared them down in silence with a slight smile on

your face.

took her outside for quite awhile and then brought her back up to the open area

where the women sit and chat and watch tv to pass time.

hound the nurses. They seemed to be somewhat rude and mostly ignored but kept

up their chatter about this and that. I guess the situation reminded me of

junior high school. These women were like the " cool bunch " to hang out with;

the bullies.

> I said goodbye to my aunt and as I was walking to the elevator, I could hear

one of these women say very loudly while I was still in plain sight, " boy that

woman has a big ass. " And the group chatted about it and laughed while i stood

there praying for the elevator to hurry up and open. While she kept up with-

" you know where that comes from, good eats, " I said, " yeah I have a big ass, you

want to see it up close? " I guess I sort of shocked myself by saying this. The

women ignored me and enjoyed the moment at my expense.

good eats! How twisted is THAT kind of thinking?????

ass up today.

about the lap band surgery again as my majical cure. I became frustrated

knowing that it will do no such thing.

better. Yesterday's experience was supposedly an opportunity to learn

something. I just pray that I can see what it is. It did help to read the

operation beautiful site too!
