Bad Back, My ovaries and my Appendix

Hey everyone,

Sorry I have not blogged for a while.

Bob has a back injury of two bulging discs with arthritis. He has not been to work in 3 weeks, cannot drive and is on very strong pain medication.

I have surgery on March 14th at 9:30 a.m. due to painful ovarian cysts that are rupturing every month and complications with my appendix. My surgery is at Littleton Hospital to remove my ovaries (both of them) and remove my appendix for no further issues of cysts. I have been put on birth control???? Not sure why, but the only result for the last week is my boobs are hurting:(

The kitchen remodel is almost complete. I will show pitcures after completion. We still have granite counter tops to place, plumbing and securing the kitchen sink and applying the decorative molding between the cabinets and ceiling.

Take care of you
Love Cindy

Cran, Thirouin and Strole Household (sounds like a lawfirm)




As you know we started on the kitchen/living room remodel on December 4, 2007. This blog is to update my friends and family on our amazing progress. We installed the cabinets last weekend. We only have one cabinet left to install in the corner by the pass through as seen in the pictures. I am still doing dishes in the bathroom sink, which is not a bad thing at all. I finally moved plants into the new atrium window in the kitchen today. LOOK! We have a paint color on the wall in the kitchen. Why is this a big deal you ask? When the kids and I moved in, Bob said only WHITE on the walls because (White goes with everything) Bob changed his mind after watching several shows on the HGTV. People on the shows always say that color is warm and inviting.



Tiffany is finding new friends due to the old ones have figured out how smart she is and are calling all the time for answers to homework questions. Tiffany finally told Daniells and Kaitlyn to PACK SAND and go away. Tiffany has new friends-Tia, Claire and Alicia, who are very polite and wonderful teenage girls.

I am still working at Wal Mart. I only work there for the medical, dental benefits and of course a payckeck every two weeks.

Hope everyone is doing well and keeping New Years Resolutions up to date.

Take care of you:)

Love Cindy
