The Voice!

It's back! I can't tell you how happy I am to be able to talk without losing my breath!

While the raspy, sexy sound is gone, I no longer sound like an 8- year old smoker.

And, now the guy at the drive thru will be able to hear me!

Thank you so much for all of your thoughts and prayers.

I am feeling good and resting up.

After all, there is a blogathon tomorrow.

JUST ADDED:  I really wrote 8 year old smoker?  BWHAHAHAHHAHA.  Obviously, I meant 80... I think.

Yay! You don't sound like Janice!

Seriously though, does it hurt? Do you need anything? Magazines? Books? Jell-o? Soup? BEER?

I'm glad you're feelin good :)

I'm happy everything went as planned. And an 8 year old smoker seems much more descriptive (albeit tragic) than and 80 year old one!

So funny, because when I read about the 8yo smoker, I thought: wow, she must have had a raspy high-pitched voice! :)

I am so glad your surgery went well and you will up to hosting the blogathon tomorrow. It should be a blast!

And I read it as an 8 year old child that smoked....Just kidding!

I was wondering about the 8 year old smoker comment. It made me think that you have a high pitched voice that sounded even stranger while hoarse. I am glad to hear that you are feeling better.

I didn't even catch the 8 year old smoker thing...I think my mind just automatically translated that to 80!

Soooooooo glad you're doing alright! Continue to have a happy recovery :)!

I was curious about the 8 year old smoker, I mean really how many 8 year old smokers do you know.
But I do wish you could hear the voice in my head b/c it is hilarious.

Glad everything is going so well! Although, I did sorta like picturing you with one of Marge Simpson's sisters voices. That would of been interesting and you could get into TV again!

My Big News and a $100.

Image
It just dawned on me that I have had some super exciting news that I haven't officially shared! You all know how I feel about the importance of optimism and resiliency in the successes I've had in my life and how important it is to pass those on to my son. Did you know my company is named "Bright Future Managment"? Doesn't get more optimistic than that! A few months ago, I was contacted by a PR firm representing Pepperidge Farm. They were interested in interviewing me for a faculty position for Fishful Thinking , an initiative that offers parents tools for fostering optimism in kids. Now, as the director of one of LA's largest and oldest private summer camps, I get contacted to participate in all kinds of things for kids... usually, I pass, as I want to spend all my free time with my boys. But in this case, the message and the presentation was so incredible, I jumped at the chance and agreed to the interview. Within the first 5 minutes of the interview I wa...

OB...No, not another tampon post.

I 'd like to start by proclaiming that I am in madly in love with my husband. In no way does this moment of "gyno-attraction" diminish his hotness and my love for said hotness. Having said that, let's begin. So I feel pretty safe in saying my OB is hotter than your OB. Okay, make that "was", because when we left LA for St. George, I had to leave his glorious, silver, stirrups. But he is worth a post. Trust me on this . Let's start with our first (and only) encounter. It was my 6 week follow up after having The Boy. My regular OB was out of town, so they assigned me to Dr. McHottie. I walked into the room with no idea of what was to come. I got undressed (from the waist down of course) and stuck my feet in the stirrups. Then he walked in. A cross between Jake Gyllenhall and Channing Tatum. In scrubs. G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S. I got all kinds of flustered and the conversation went something like this. McHottie : "Hello Mrs. R." (Cleverly remin...
