~Carole's BACK!~

Well look who's back to blogging again! Our fun friend Carole..
I'm sure many of you remember her.
Her new blog new name is A Bohemian Market
Go see what new adventure she's up too now!

Breast surgery update..
I'm doing OK, but now in some pain.
From having the 14 mammogram x rays (before surgery) & the surgery it self my entire breast (whats left of it) is very bruised. It's so bad the color is that of a deep purple egg plant how ugly!
You Gals who have had mammograms remember what it's like just having one..but having 14 of them at one time was just way to much for me and my breast...OUCH!
Just remember Gals having your mammograms is still very important, they save lives!
