"ER tune" :: Miscellaneous Wednesday

Where did Tuesday Tune 20/19/2010 go you might have ask !?!?!? (well, I can dream of followers liking and caring about this blog !!!)

The truth is my HUBBY hasn't been feeling right and I had to attend to him (as well as publishing a post on my other blog) which took quite some work and time ...
The trouble -a VERY bad nose bleed- brought us straight to the ER this morning !!!

My HUBBY hating everything associated with the word "doctor" is in for a real treat :-/

He got admitted right away ... (weight: checked, temperature: checked, blood pressure: checked, dumb questionary: answered ...)
He won the right to wear the fashionable gown ...

Now, let's the waiting game begin ... !!!

Wait 15 min for the nurse for another round of blood pressure checking, temperature and oh !!! ... something new: listening to the heart and lungs !!!
Wait for 20 min for the doc to show up for another fun game of answering the same stupid questions as previously ... and, oh !!! actually checking the trouble sinus !!!
Wait for 10 min for a nurse to come to draw blood ...

So until now, my HUBBY was taking everything VERY patiently and bravely ... The arrival of the nurse and her little caddy made him turn white and shaky as a leaf !!! Now it looked like he actually belonged to the ER: poor thing ...

It didn't help that the nurse had to go back and forth 3 times for missing items !!! First: she was missing the sample tube ... Second: ... I'm not sure what it was and the last time was to get gloves !!!
Now she was finally ready and Mr was stressed to the max ...
But luckily or should I say surprisingly, the nurse was SUPER GOOD and my HUBBY barely had time to squeeze his eyes shut and my hand tight, that all was over and the nurse gone with the precious liquid -my hand thanks the nurse for this fast and pain(full)less experience-

Well, as if it wasn't enough, we now had to wait for the blood results: really !!! ONE HOUR ... One LONG hour !!!

Thanksfully, all came up in good standing
;-)

Now we are heading to the nose specialist to figure out what caused this BIG-O drama while my traumatized HUBBY goes on and on apologizing for his winning, weakness and lack of heroism ...

So for my MAN, I dedicate this tune ...
'cause to my eyes you are the best there is: I LOVE YOU SWEETY <3 <3 <3

Through My iPhone Lens Saturday: "Lady Bug" ;-)

Now this got to be one off the cutest VW bug I've seen around !!!

The coolest part off this customized car for me is that the French nick name is "Coquecinelle" which translated in English to "Lady Bug" ...
Yet, until today, I've never seen this VW actually look like one ;-)

 Come one !!! Isn't she cute or what ???

Let's Do A Little Good Friday With Pepperidge Farm and Dannon

Yes AGAIN !!!

And this, all month long !!! 

It is the Breast Cancer Awareness Month after all !!!

This year more then before, it seems to me that a lot more people, organizations and companies show their support to the breast cancer fight ... 

All this pink out there is a beauty to look at: don't you think ???

As a result, I've find it so much easier to participate too ... Without spending extra or giving a special donation ... I've still been able to contribute quite more than usual ;-) 

 And with deals like above, how can you not want to "fight for the cure" ???

An other exemple --> Look at

They have  an easy way for you to help: eat delicious yogourts, go on their website, enter the code found on the lid ... and voila !!! Better and faster than Yoplait even ...

See ??? It's SO EASY !!! 

So let's put our pink on ... we still have 2 October weeks to go ... 

Oh, ya !!!

Share your pink story ...

Blog Hop !!! :: Miscellaneous Wednesday

Well, today I wasn't inspired :-/

For the last few nights I've not been able to sleep much !!!! I've been going to bed really late 1am for lack of feeling sleepy even though I was tired !?!?!?

So today, I didn't manage to get-up early compare to last week and I've been pretty lazy (blushing) ... I've yet to make the bed !!!

But I finally got around to scan and send important document needed in the process of registering our wedding back home in France. I also caught up on emails, FaceBook updates and was following up on the happening on the BlogFrog Communities ...

So while checking out the posts I found this Blog Hop and decided to join: it's my very FIRST participation to this activity, so I'm not sure what will come out of it ...
I see those often through out my blog reading but still don't know much about it and how it works.
I chose this one for today but know that Blue Frogs Legs initiate Blog Hop regularly and I will consider participating next time depending on what happen with this one ...

Even if you don't participate today, if you have any information about Blog Hop, please, share with me by leaving comments. You can also write your thought about such activity ... Is there different kind of Blog Hop ??? Is there one in particular that you like to join ???

And here is the link for today's Blog Hop ... I hope you enjoy ;-)

Tuesday Tune 10/12/2010

I was checking the App store for updates and while I was there I look at the new things that got released recently ...

I bumped on an App called 'SoundHound'.
It's similar to 'Shazam' so at first I didn't think much of it ... Until then, other applications didn't match 'Shazam' !!!
But still, I got curious -we never know, think change, programmation get better- and decided to read the summery.
It happened that 'SoundHound' has more features than 'Shazam' ... One of them being to find a song by singing it yourself !!!
I had to try it ... so I downloaded it ... and sang the first tune that came to mind ...

The song was one my grandma used to sing to me before she would tuck me in at night the rare time we would visite.
I thought it was just a kid song that she was sang to when herself was a kid ... but not a real title ...

So imagine my surprise when the App came up with a tittle AND an artist !!! ...

Let me tell you ... I got really emotional listening to it !!! This song is SO dear to my heart ...

So, with no farther due, here is the feature song of the week: "Une Chanson Douce" by Henri Salvador ft Celine Dion
