Susan, I was visiting Mudcatter friends in Orillia, Ontario. And I spent some time in Toronto, Newmarket, Barrie and some other towns I can't remember the names of right now. Now I have a dream to spend a lot of time traveling around the maritime provinces. I've been through parts of New Brunswick, but that's all so far. Are you in Canada? |

I had never done anything on the net but pure research for engineering, construction products, history, music, whatever. It was after an unsuccessful search of the Digitrad that I decided to post to the forum. Wish I had had such bad luck in the Digitrad years earlier because I have had much fun in the forum, as well as learning a great deal about the tunes I like. |

02 Jan 02 - 08:18 AM (#619823) Subject: RE: BS: Your best thing of the year.... From: catspaw49 Well Spud, it ain't always age. I've had two previous heart operations including a quad by-pass in '97. In '99 I developed an unrepairable aortic aneurysm making any surgery difficult and very risky. Unfortunately, this year I had to have the mitral valve replaced and I was fortunate to have it done robotically in a minimally invasive procedure, still a 4 hour operation. It was a complete crapshoot as to whether or not I'd make it through the surgery as the retro flow of a heart/lung machine plumbed in at the groin puts extra pressure on the aorta. So when I woke up and felt a bit of pain.....well, I knew I was alive! Spaw |

01 Jan 03 - 01:41 PM (#856673) Subject: RE: BS: Your best thing of the year.... From: CapriUni Well, I successfully fulfilled my new year's resolutions from last year -- and that's always a good way to make a year feel successful. The first resolution was to submit something for every issue of a local Pagan magazine, for the year (8 issues): even if pieces get rejected, to send something in for the next one. I sent my 8th and final one for the year 2 hours before the moment of the solstice, and 2 days before the publishing deadline. And four of those eight pieces were excepted for publication, and maybe a fifth, too... but I won't know that until the Imbolg issue is out. The second resolution I made was to write something in memoriam of my uncle Peter, who was killed before I was born, but whose life greatly influenced mine (that was one of the pieces that wasn't printed, but I posted it to Mudcat, here, and so it was shared, and he will be remembered, at least as someone who mattered, by more people than me. But the Best-est thing that I can think of this year had to have come at Christmas, when I opened a package from an on-line friend I've known casually for a few years, to find it chock full of things that suit my personality so perfectly, it nearly brought tears to my eyes. Not so much the stuff itself, but the thought and the effort that went into it -- the tangible proof that someone thousands of miles away took the time to see and understand me, as a person, behind the tens of thousands of annonymous words I've posted to the Internet. Whether 2002 was joyful or diffecult for you, I send wishes of hope and joy to all for the year to come. May your heart be full of the laughter of ten thousand angels, and the strength of ten thousand elephants. |

I survived a near death experience this summer, and I am happy to say, "LIFE IS JUST GRAND, AIN'T IT!" In case anyone was wondering..my appendix ruptured and the first time I went to the hospital, the Dr. said it was a viral thing, sent me home with a prescription for nausea med. I was too sick to argue. That was a Thursday. I went back on Mon. and another Dr. didn't know either but set me up with a cat scan the next day. Tues. I went in for the scan (I was really sick now) and they were going to send me home for another two days to wait for results. Luckily a friend of mine working at the hospital told me the Dr. who reads the scans was there that day, so I insisted on the results that day. So I call for the results a couple hours later and they tell me to get in to the hospital now. Turns out I was full of poison and shit(literally)(and living with a ruptered appendix for seven days) and they did surgery immediately. I was in the hospital two weeks and it took almost two months to recuperate. So, Yes Spaw...waking up and knowing I'm alive! EEE-HAW! Peace, Rustic |

Rogers It's such a good feeling to know you're alive. It's such a happy feeling: You're growing inside. And when you wake up ready to say, "I think I'll make a snappy new day." It's such a good feeling, a very good feeling, The feeling you know that we're friends. *(for non-American Mudcatter's reference, Mr. Rogers was the avuncular host of a long running children's program on Public Television from 1966 until he retired last year. The program is still being broadcast in reruns). |
