It's past midnight, and here I sit -- drinking Ovaltine.

[bertha katzenengel]

I hate being scared and nervous and worried about shit that won't happen. Little biopsy tomorrow. Nothing at all to be worried about, I am sure. But not to be worried would be to betray my Harris roots.

Maybe tequila has fewer calories. But I probably shouldn't drink a tumbler full, like the Ovaltine.

What are you drinking?

1. cranberry juice!

I'll be thinking of you tomorrow K! Best wishes for a really good outcome. I'm a worrier too. I'm having surgery next thursday, adhesions and a couple of hernias fixed. I was about to cancel a term life policy the other day and decided to wait till AFTER surgery.. NOW who's paranoid and a worry wart :rofl:

you just take care of you, all will be fine!! so sayeth auntie :)

4. My dear bertha!

Let me see if I can help you relax......

(BTW, I'm not drinking anything)

I always try to think of the possibilities....

What are the chances that something's wrong? Actually small....


It is what it is, IF they find anything...which they probably won't.

And the results are out of your hands.....

Remember that you are doing the good deed here...taking care of yourself...

And that is the first step, always......

You'll be fine, I'm sure of it. The unknown is always scary......

:hug:

I hope this is helping! If not, please forgive me.........

Edited to add: Oops,sorry.....forgot you're going for a biopsy...

[bertha katzenengel]

7. GO GET SOMETHING TO DRINK!

Yes, this was helpful. Thanks very much.

Now: Go get something to drink! ;)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. Ok........Ok.......I'll get something to drink!

Is water OK? :rofl: :rofl:

And I'm glad I could help......:loveya: :hug:

[bertha katzenengel]

10. Hey. Water is in everything we drink, no?

;)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. That it is! ...........N/T

6. I'd join you in an Ovaltine if I had any

but I'll just work on finishing my bushwhacker from earlier this evening. My thoughts will be with you tomorrow. I wish you the best.

[bertha katzenengel]

8. What's a bushwhacker?

I only have Ovaltine because my nephew, who just spent two weeks here, needed it.

Yes, he needed it. I took him grocery shopping. When we passed by chocolate syrup I stopped, and pointed to the Hershey's, and said, "You like chocolate milk, right?" He said, "yeah, but I think Ovaltine is more nutritious . . ." :rofl: the little manipulator. :rofl:

Thanks for your wishes. I wasn't going to say anything, but hey. I wouldn't be bertha if i didn't whine about something.

[In_The_Wind]

15. A bushwhacker is 4 liquors and 3 rums blended with ice.

It goes down easy and will knock you on your ass!
You know that you are loved by the older DUers who have posted with you for years. We will all be wishing you the best tomorrow!

Your nephew sounds like quite a lad, he'll grow up very well with his skills at getting what he wants!

BTW ~ He might be right about the Ovaltine. :thumbsup:

:loveya:

[Floogeldy]

11. Please

Can't we talk about your love and strength and calm and shit that happens and big biopsy and things to worry about and your roots and calories in tumbler fulls?

That would be much more interesting than what I am drinking. ;)

[u4ic]

14. Only water

and I wish you all the best tomorrow, bertha! :pals:

[Dangerously Amused]

17. Hey Bertha.

I'm drinking coffee. But I'm thinking Bertha.


Hope things went well today and you receive good news, quickly.



Meantime, here's a hug :hug: and a kitty pic:

Wishing her all the best!

[Liberal In Texas]

20. Add a little

It won't kill you. It'll make you sleep better. It won't affect the test.

Good luck. Let us know.
