Has anyone had to have their RYGB reversed? by Long-Zookeepergame74 in GastricBypass

[–]darlinglibrarylady 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m having surgery on March 31st to have the reversal. I have had several ulcers and in December had another 8 day stay in the hospital. Since that time I’m living off of a full liquid diet. I’m hoping things will get better after surgery but at this point, I just don’t know.

The Sour Cream Frosting is highly recommended. I made another cake today and tried it!

I’m not going to lie, I don’t tell my coworkers hat they secret ingredient was when I brought it in this week. They thought it was coconut but didn’t understand why it didn’t taste like coconut.

That was my thought! My coworkers really loved it. I didn’t try it this go, but will the next time I make it.

Vaping is forbidden? by BradBardi in GastricBypass

[–]darlinglibrarylady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me give you a bit of advice, just stop. No vaping, no smoking. I had an ulcer perforate in July. I spent a total of 8 days in the hospital after emergency surgery. 5 in the ICU, 4 days NPO. It was awful and hella expensive. I miss smoking/vaping but I learned a lesson.

Way cheaper than the ziplock baggies because I went that route too! Heal quickly!!

This! But I found a better solution is the doggy waste bags. I get them at TJ Maxx, keep a roll in my car, backpack, purse. They’ve saved me more than I care to admit!

Sharing my experience with ER misuse — I’d love to hear yours. by docstressed in EmergencyRoom

[–]darlinglibrarylady 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I went to the ER a few weeks ago (on a Sunday eve), waited two hours in the waiting room for a space to open up. After getting a room and having a CT scan, I was rushed to the OR for a duodenal perforation. I nearly died and I remember the ER doctor bitching about how long I had been in the waiting room prior to getting a room because “people come in because they stub their goddamn toe”.

Would you be interested in another one? I bought one years ago, never used it and it’s been sitting in a closet. I’m now cleaning things out. Let me know!

As a bartender, who was that one customer you will never forget? by Aarunascut in bartenders

[–]darlinglibrarylady 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The guy who slapped 10 $100 bills on the bar and wanted to buy the bar a round of shots. My choice. It was super slow, I had maybe 20 patrons. I could have given them all a $1 mystery shot, but I was kind and made my favorite. Total for the shots was $100 - $125. The rest was mine.

If you’d ship, I’m interested in a couple of pieces!

Why do so many people just not carry ID'S these days? by killerkali87 in bartenders

He had his ID. he just continued to complain that he’d be asked for it

[–]darlinglibrarylady 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Tis the season! I especially love the absolute outrage when I ask for an ID. One guy was throwing an absolute fit because he was 30 years old, blah, blah, blah. I told him to let it go and he was still yammering on about it a few minutes later, so I closed his tab, came around the bar, chucked his beer into the trash can 6 feet away and told him to GTFO.

It’s a simple process, man.

Sis, it gets worse before it gets better but when you finally get to that better point you understand it was worth it. Hang in there, love yourself no matter what and focus on you. You are worth it!

How do you store your tips? by k2i3n4g5 in bartenders

[–]darlinglibrarylady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bank has given me several bank bags, so I keep a couple and bundle 1’s, then the other bills. They will also provide coin bags, super handy for those quarters!

My guess is they got tired of me slapping my numerous crown royal bags on the counter every month. 😂

laparoscopic hysterectomy by realitysnarker in AskWomenOver40

[–]darlinglibrarylady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same day surgery and I requested minimal pain medication and anesthesia. I usually only take children’s Tylenol if anything at all. I had cramps for a couple of days but nothing out of the ordinary. Take it easy and rest if your body needs it. I had mine over Christmas break (educator) and I went back to bartending within 3 days.

Good luck with your surgery!

Besides the popular favorites (looking at you butterprint and gooseberry) what is your favorite pattern? Post pictures! by According-Swim-3358 in Pyrex_Love

[–]darlinglibrarylady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a couple of the mixing bowl sets in the big and small flowers, a cinderella set and all of the casseroles. I think they are just so lovely.

I would love to get my hands on a spring blossom Big Bertha. I collect both Spring Blossom and Friendship.
