Just a little stuff.

There I was, trying to figure out a post for today, when I saw in my Feedburner links that a certain blog had a new post up. A blog that has been silent, lately. But I check every day.

Siobhan, from ABritDifferent posted yesterday, and in her post she announced she's 14 weeks pregnant. When she breaks her silence - she REALLY does it up right. Give her a shout.

#3 Son had his surgery yesterday morning and I spent the day with him, helping him as much as I could. He's doing okay, and except for a little case of puckerbutt (known by some as Sympathy Sphincter), so am I. I have, however, seen as much blood as I care to for a while.

I'm glad your son is doing allright. A case of "puckerbutt"? That made me smile!

Glad to hear it went well.

I'm sure he'll be thrilled that you discussed his puckerbutt on your blog. Glad he's better!

"Puckerbutt". I am SO using this at the first opportunity!

Adding puckerbutt to my repertoire.

Amazing how much blood oral surgery can produce isn't it. I'm sure you were a big help, even if he doesn't realize it yet.

My love to you and him both. :)

Like you I was so excited to see Siobhan had put up a new post, then to read her announcement was like Christmas and New Years all rolled into one.

I will be using 'puckerbutt' in conversation sometime this week, guaranteed! Hope #3 is on a quick road to recovery.

Eeeew?

EEk. Ever since I witnessed the sacrifice of a bull at a Shaman's funeral in Mexico two years ago, I don't do so well around blood anymore.

Good healing vibes to your son.

I was so glad to read Siobhan's blog. I was also positively thrilled to read her news.

I hope #3 son is up and around again soon.

Jientje: He's doing fine and so is my butt.

Moneythoughts: Thank you, Fred.

Bama Cheryl: MY puckerbutt, not his.

Employee: Thenk you, Linda.

M+B: He's okay. Swelling a little, but little pain.

Honeybell: Given what you do for a living, I'm sure you'll have a chance sooner rather than later.

Hyphen Mama: And not 'Sympathy Sphincter'?

Patsy: Thank you, Patsy. I'll tell him.

Tara R: Thank you, Tara. He is. Why does nobody seem to like 'Sympathy Sphincter'?

Nan: Yeah. Cool, huh?

Loraine: Thank you, Loraine. I think an experience like that would put me off blood, too.

Joyce-Anne: He will be - he seems to be doing really well.

Ree: Nope. Just the puckers, that's all.

I know!
I think I commented right after you over at Siobhan's. I am so excited for her :)

Glad to hear your son is doing alright!

Wait. What? said...

So happy that the surgery went well - maybe take a break from the blood viewing and snaps some recovery photos of smiles when he gets released to home!
