Merry Christmas guys!

Everything's been great. My sister's in freakin' Hawaii so she wasn't at grandma's (so jealous lmao, and I did miss her) but she had gifts left for us. She got me socks, fancy lotion, and a Barnes and Noble gift card, and grandma gave me money. She gave Korey a little, too ;3; so sweet of her. It was a pretty good Christmas at grandma's thing, with

I'm glad you had a good Christmas. And what kind of fancy lotion did you get? I'm a lotions/beauty products/skin products junkie, so I really would like to know.:D

You're looking great, Mary! Your man is handsome too.;)

And is that a dachschund on the sofa? That's the kind of dog we had!

Sure! My sister got me Love Spell body lotion and body scrub from Victoria's Secret. The stuff from my parents was Cherry Blossom fine fragrance mist, Dark Kiss and Secret Wonderland triple moisture body wash, and Secret Wonderland body butter from Bath and Body Works, then a Burt's Bees set with lip balm, body wash, foot cream, body lotion, cleanser lotion, and hand salve. All good stuff.

Hee~ thanks ♥

Close! She's a chiweenie. So half dachshund but half chihuahua.

Wow, Mary, you got some really great stuff.:) I love Burt's Bees products, they're all natural or mostly, so really great for the environment and your health!

Aw, well that's a really cute dog. I'm glad you got another dog, I know you had wanted one for a while.

Btw, did you ever get the operation you had wanted? I kept forgetting to ask. I want to know because I'm planning to finally get a couple of operations myself in 2013 and I want to know what it's like, like how the anesthesia is and the recovery process.

I refuse to use anything animal tested, for the most part, so yeah I love their stuff.

Yup, she's my baby. I've had her for about 3 years now.

Yeah, it was done over a year ago. July 2011.

Ah, re; your questions regarding the surgery, I had an abnormally shitty hospital experience. I don't really want to recount everything that happened to me because thinking about it makes me mad, but I'll direct you to a post I made at the time. This shit was so awful. As for the more basic stuff, like what being under anesthesia and recovery type stuff is like, anesthesia works great. I've had it used on me 3 times now, I believe. Once when I was in 8th grade to have surgery on a pinched nerve, once for getting my wisdom teeth removed, and once for bariatric surgery. It puts you out pretty quickly and you don't wake up when you shouldn't or anything. If the nurses do everything correctly and you have access to your painkillers once it wears off, it's pretty great there

Ah, okay, well I'm sorry you had some poor hospital care but glad you had a successful operation! It's a shame when nurses are bitchy and don't show compassion...if I was a nurse, I'd be so warm and kind to the patients. I've met medical assistants like that, and I always think, why wouldn't you want to be smiling and friendly if you got into this business? It's to do with helping and healing people, which should equal being nice to people as well. You see those commercials for medical assistants training and they show the girls being so sweet, but it's not how it really is
