Default voodoo curse

OK, I don't know who in here has it out for me but I surrender. I have heard that only people with half a brain practice voodoo so I figure it must be one of you guys.

I'm not going into all my recent bad happenings but if you're really interested they're posted around the board someplace.

But yesterday I'm getting ready to go camping, packing the trailer, looking forward to 11 days of relaxation and fun. My first trip to the trailer finds it ant infested, the dang little ones that chew and spit out piles of junk. So I go to head out of the trailer to get the ant traps and bam I am suddenly sitting down and not in the best positions, one leg under me. I cannot get up, can't roll over, so swallow my dignity and yell for husband and he helps me up. Bless his heart doesn't even laugh. I have trained him well.

I find I have injured my left foot, not good, right would have been better LOL because that is my weak leg and just seems like it would be easier to hobble around with at least one lower limb intact. I continue with my chores, killing ants and packing trailer. doing the owie dance, you know the one....limp, limp, ow, ow. You've done it before I'm sure.

Decide to take a break, come to computer going to print something ..printer is jammed, overheated and now won't turn on. dang..I'm sure I felt one of my needle jabs that I thought were MS but now thinking one of you have a voodoo doll all dressed up in a sweater and skirt(see image thread here). BTW, I let the printer cool still dead, no life.

Then my granddaughter Joslyn spent the night with us. She is all healed from her surgery back to her normal self, thank God. But Nana is hurting and tired so decide to let her watch Dora on DVD. DVD player will not kick out sound. Now mind you her dad's DVD player did the same thing last week. What are the odds?? Really doesn't faze her tho, I put music on the CD player with the DVD and as she watches it she says all the words that usually are said on the Dora DVD--think she may have watched it once or twice?? For those of you with Dora fans, "pond, barn, Grandma's house, pond, barn, Grandma's house" and "Swiper, no swiping" say them real loud. Yes, I think I have lost my ever lovin' mind.

And thinking I may be starting another UTI but if I do it will wait until I get home or else!! Errr...or else I'll find an after hours clinic close to where I'm camping.

So!!! Whoever has that dang doll, please, please put it down for awhile!
Thanks!

And we return you to your regularly scheduled day with no more whining cause I am going camping!

Voodoo? Nope, not me. . . really it's not

Brenda, are you sure it's safe to go camping?

I know I don't need to tell you but. . . don't mess around if you have a UTI, make sure you get it treated ASAP

I'm wishing you a relaxing, stress free, UTI free and no more Voodoo moments camping trip

Poor Bren


*Amn: I told you not to poke the doll until she had been camping at least 5 days* (I'm just jealous, thats all)

Wishing you a fantastic time. Drink lots of fluids and if your not feeling better see a doc asap.

Have fun. Talk to you when you get back

Jealous here, too, I can't camp anymore.

Bethie, I sent the doll to Snoopy, who has it now?

Go have a nice vacation, Bren, and like the others said, don't let a uti mess you up even more!

I don't have it either.

However, I enjoyed reading your post. Although there was frustration in there you wrote it with such humor. I hope things start getting better and you have an awesome time camping. I too am jealous and seriously wish I was camping and fishing.
