My husband would soooooo agree with you. Everytime I can't find something, he wants to take my purse and dump it upside down!

I think one of the things I should have put on my "peeves" list would have been this. It drives me nuts having to wait at the drive through ATM, behind someone who isn't prepared. Or having to wait for someone who decides to do their whole month's worth of banking while there's a line up behind them. Go inside if you need to do that!

It never seems to fail that the person in front of me is doing his/her banking for life, so I wait and wait and wait. I'm usually prepared though my purse, which should be registered as a lethal weapon, sometimes defeats me. I have noticed that if I take the old Cadillac to the ATM, I can't get close enough and have to open the door. If I take my RAV 4, it works really well. So I avoid taking the Cadillac. The damn thing is enormous.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
