The Great Gall Bladder Adventure...

Disclaimer:

This was totally Dustin's idea to post this. I personally think it is sick and wrong. lol So, you can all blame him if you get grossed out.



This weekend Dustin decided to do a Gall Bladder cleanse. We have suspected for quite some time that he was having problems with Gall Stones. He started last week by not eating dairy, or meat, and by just getting himself cleaned out. Then on Saturday he started this regimen that he had to strictly follow. He couldn't eat anything after 2:00 on Saturday, and had to drink all these weird concoctions to try and get the stones to come out. So, this morning I got up because I heard him up moving around. I asked him if it worked, and sure enough it did. Not only did he tell me it worked, but he had the evidence to prove it! Yep, he saved them... and was trying to get me to take a gander at them. I was like, "Not only NO, but he_ _ NO!" Anyone who knows me, knows that I have what you call a weak stomach, and have been known to pass out at the sight of gross stuff. Well, then Ashlynn woke up and wouldn't you know, she just waltzed right over and wanted to examine the things. I swear, nothing phases that kid. Dillon on the other hand, was more like me, and stayed clear of them. That's my boy!


Dustin estimates that he passed close to 250 stones. Thankfully, he didn't save them all. He only saved a few of the best ones, oh, and he cleaned and sanitized them with alcohol before he took pictures!!! He says to let you all know that he is doing well in his recovery, and appreciates all your love and support during this rough time.......... LOL :) Oh, and I'm sure if any of you would like to go on the "Great Gall Bladder Adventure", he would be happy to share the how to's of it all.



P.S.
I'm gagging as I post these pictures.


Craft Fair

This weekend my friend Kollen, her sister-in-law Dana, and I had a booth at the Reedom Elementary Winter Craft Fair. They sold jewelry that they make, and I sold my bows. Although it was not as lucrative as I would have liked, hee, hee..... (I always have way to high of expectations), it was still a fun day. I loved sitting and visiting with Kollen and Dana, and I love just people watching. There are some interesting characters out there. :) My good friend Kenna was one of the head honchos over the whole thing, and she did such a great job organizing, and getting vendors. I think there were around 50 booths. She was also the MC for the whole day. I had no idea she was so good at that type of thing, I could never do that. She was crackin jokes right and left.... what a funny gal! Anyways, here are some pics of our booth and of Kollen, Dana, and I.
