The doctor said that the LCL was torn all to hell and they had to tighten up the ACL. Of course they found arthritis in my knee. I've been put into a immobilizing brace and told to put no pressure on it for 2 months. I guess all I can do is wait some more. I just wanted to thank all of you for your thoughts and prayers while I hobble around. Thanks Twinkie Awards

I was using is like #2 below........this time. 1: phrase used by Southern women to excuse themselves for speaking ill of someone else. 2: an expression of sympathy or pity. 3: a polite way to respond to an ignoramus, particularly male, who showers upon you flattering but unwanted compliments. 1: "She's as ugly as a mud-fence, bless her heart." 2: "Well, bless your heart, that must have been terrible!" 3: drunk fella: "I think you're beautiful! Even if you were ugly, I'd STILL think you were beautiful!" recipient: "...bless your heart." LordOfChaos and Gatorgirl 2 Awards

Some of the Many Uses of ‘Bless Your Heart’ Example: When someone walks into a room wearing a distasteful outfit and someone says “Bless her/his heart” … it means: “That poor thing has the tackiest taste in the world!” or it could even be more specific as in “Good grief, those pants make her bottom look like it’s dragging the ground!” When, let’s say, a family member calls and tells you of something stupid another family member has done there are several “Bless her/his heart”s and this means: “Well, even though they don’t have enough sense to get out of a wet paper bag, we still love them.” When someone you love and care about gets hurt or has something bad happen to them and you say “Bless your heart”…. it means “Oh, I am so sorry you are going through this, I wish I could take it away and make things better.” It can be a form of empathy and used as a big hug…. as in when a friend calls and tells you about how bad her job is, and the kids are going crazy, and the dog just destroyed the house….. we say “Bless your heart”….and it means: ”Honey, I hate that you’ve had a bad day, but I’m glad it’s you and not me!” And then one of the biggest ways southerners use “Bless your heart”….is a way to identify each other. You pretty much know where someone came from when they use this powerful phrase. You also know where someone came from if they use it incorrectly. {And you appropriately say “Bless. your. heart.”} Now, this is definitely an abbreviated lesson….just in a nutshell. There are many other ways to use it, and the nuances are many….for instance: when it is said through clenched teeth, drawn out slowly, with a squeal, etc…..but, for any of you that are not familiar with it, I don’t want to overwhelm you. I am proud to say that we had our new friend using this lovely phrase 90% correctly within two days. She was a quick learner. Only a few stumbles…but we quickly said “Bless your heart!” and covered for her. She also had a question about the phrase “Fixin’ to”……whew! That’s a whole other lesson. I’ll have to tackle that on another day. Bless ALL of your hearts today~ {and I mean that in the best, most loving way} Edited January 18, 2013 by BurnnBright Gatorgirl 1 Awards
