Hows it going folks?

Good afternoon everyone! The scope of my stomach showed nothing but acid reflux!I had a feeling that it wasn't going to be a big deal anyways. So there ya go! I have also completely become one with my colostomy bag. I am pretty used to it now. I still haven't gotten on a regular eating schedule though so my "movements" come when they want. There are some people with colostomys that irrigate their bowels every morning and just wear a little cap over their stome for the rest of the day, but it takes something like 45 minutes to do the whole process. I don't have that time in the morning so I just do my thing and let my body do its business as it seems necessary! Because when the poop wants to come it just does! I am not going to alter my schedule for this stuff! I have already done PLENTY of altering! My eating habits will remain the same. Now granted I don't want diarrhea of any kind while I have this bag so I will avoid anything that might lead me down that dirt road! Jaurita and I are doing great! She really earned some points with me this past year. I guess I will keep her! Now I still work 9-5 at Mini Ha Ha Bingo, but going through cancer treatment has me seriously rethinking just where I want to spend my work hours for the rest of my life. I have played guitar in a rock band. I have all the memories of that adventure! Good times! Poor as hell, but good times! Now I like the money from my job, but it's not fulfilling in any REAL way ya know? I am surrounded by alot of customers who are negative and bitter and after what I have been through I just don't get them at all! Life is short and working there is not the most positive experience on a daily basis so something has got to change! I just am not too clear on what that is exactly yet! But I am looking around and seeing what my options are! Winning the lottery is always a possibility! Then we could see some of this big old world before I make my exit, stage left! Remember when I got my port replaced? Well last Thursday my oncologist suggested we just get it taken out on April 22nd! Yeah I can have my chest back! Now Jay can snuggle on me withought a big old lump of metal poking her head! Let ya know how that surgery goes in a couple of weeks!
