P.B. gets a new label

P.B. has finally learned her direction in life...forward. It will include a long life (if she has anything to do with it) filled with friends and many more zany acts to follow. Her doc (hot doctor PB would like to add), has given her the "you're cured" speech! PB's peanut butter filled dreams could not even compete with the joy which these words have given her. Let me re-cap for those playing along at home:
Pb enters the facility around 1330 with 2 very good friends in tow. Her appointment is for 1345. She is already nervous and engaging in silly antics which only children do, like pushing all the elevator buttons and getting off on the wrong floor. How could she forget? PB checked in but cannot find her new insurance card, good thing the check-in girl was forgiving. PB sat for about 2 minutes before the nurse called her back. PB crossed her fingers one last time. Once in the exam room she was informed her hot doc was running behind schedule. This was PB's view for about 15 mins:

Whilst she waited PB communicated with friends from the outside world via text messaging, yahoo messenger, and pictures. PB wanted everyone to have part in the experience. Then the moment came when her doc walked in with a lovely pink shirt on which complimented his complexion quite well. He complimented PB on her new hairstyle and then handed her a sheet of paper. PB read it, screamed, and then looked at him and inquired, "does this mean what PB thinks it means." He said, "yes." PB screamed yet again (this time throwing her hands in the air). The doctor then was grasped in a gigantic hug from PB and she started to cry tears of joy. This poor doctor never responds well to PB's tears and NEVER has tissues in the office for PB. He begins to frantically search for a tissue but must make do with a paper towel. PB then screams yet a third time. He continues to smile, laugh, and turn many shades of pink. PB then informs him he must meet her 2 supporting actors (not only 2 mind you just 2 that were there) in this very dramatic moment. He graciously introduced himself and delivered to PB's friends the same words which he had delivered to PB only moments prior. "She's cured." So, thank you all for playing along PB just needed to share the dramatic conclusion to this chapter in her life. She is now in the process of re-designing her label So nuts, PB is open to suggestions. It has been a long time since she did not have to define herself by a disease. Now, PB is going to hunt down the Peanut Gang who has been tainting the most perfect food in the world, peanut butter.

Top 5 reasons to love PB Loco!

1) They have a peanut-themed cafe menu.

2) They provided a George Washington Carver shout out on their web site.

3) They understand the limitless possibilities of peanut butter combinations. The chocolate and peanut butter is divine!



4) They finally give Shady a reason to drive to and not just through Delaware. Sounds like a prime blogoptunity! Anyone up for a little road trip to Delaware?!

5) The web site asks, Are these people crazy? Who gets up one morning and says, “I think I'll open a peanut butter restaurant?” If that's crazy, then Shady doesn't want to be sane! And well, [insert your own joke].

P.B. is moving on!

No not PB Smooth but Pat "The Bat" Burrell is moving to another jar! PB is really (sniff, sniff, [blowing nose]) not sure how she is going to cope. Left field for the Philadelphia Phillies will not be the same without his posterior. WHAAAAAAAAA PB is sad. Anyone want to start a petition with PB to bring back Pat? Anyone? Please? Ok PB will get over....eventually. Thanks Pat for the many wonderful views you gave PB she particularly enjoyed when you would tear your pants in the posterior. Hubba Hubba...And in all seriousness Good luck with the new team.

3 weeks=21 days=the final countdown

Yes, Nuts the time has arrived for PB to learn of the results of her year of H-E-double hockey sticks! She will go for bloodwork tomorrow (hopefully for the final time relating to the nasty disease which caused her much discomfort for a year). PB is trying to stay optimistic but also recognizes the reality of staying well, realistic. Obviously, there are 2 results which could be the reality of her world. PB would like to think she was in a different shell when going through the treatments since she was very OCD about taking her meds (probably missed 5 doses at the most) and taking her injections at the SAME time every week. She hopes this placed her in the higher percentage of chance that her disease will be eliminated, destroyed, demolished, and outcasted from her system. She prays that she will no longer have to bite her nails in worry and angst about how to continue to keep her liver healthy to ensure she is here to have children and watch grandchildren grow. On the other side of the shell, PB feels like 2009 is her year. PB says count with her as she counts her blessings and amazing things which happened to her:
1. PB has the greatest cowpeas eva', i.e Lil' Shady, E-rin, Krazy K, all her other nut posse
2. Her Philadelphia Phillies won the World Series (in dramatic fashion of course)
3. An African American man was elected as President of the free world
4. PB successfully passed her psychology licensing examS only 5 months post treatment!
5. PB's football team, Philadelphia Eagles, made it to the playoffs with a 9-6-1 record (yes that is a stupid tie in the mix) in dramatic fashion of course
6. PB had a professor who really did not like her in graduate school send her a congratulatory email on passing her examS
So PB is really praying and crossing her shells that she can add #7 to the list of: She successfully beat a disease when the odds were stacked against her! So, 2009 PB is ready to meet you shell to shell. And please nuts continue one last time to pray that PB's news is one that will allow her to feel a lot more ahhh what's the word..."normal?" Yeah, that's the one...here's to a prof who sent an email, a football team with a crazy record, passing an exam, a man being elected President, a team winning a championship, and all my wonderful support system of Nuts! PB thinks the odds will no longer be stacked against her but in her favor...move over house PB is going to win big this year! Happy New Year Nuts!

Happy New Year

Wishing my Nut clusters from around the global Shell a very Happy New Year.
