Wonderful Wednesday! How are you doing???
Morning Nancy and OFF family!
Back is feeling better but now I can feel the pain going down into my sciatic nerve area. Great huh? NOT! Called off work yesterday and I am off today. Laid around all day yesterday and took my vicodin doubled up and used ice and heat. Slept off and on nd that seemed to help also. Now today not sure what all I can do. I know sitting here it hurts so I won't be playing on the computer much!!
Supposed to be getting the parking lot blacktopped today at complex. So far they are not here yet...hmmm. Wonder when they will start? We have been waiting all summer for them to show up and now today is THE day. Not holding my breath.
Birthday party plans falling into place except one. Rick wants his mommy to come. I told him I wasn't going to invite her but if HE wants her HE can invite her. He said he would ask her. He said he would also tell her to bring hamburgers and buns. HELL NO!!!!!! I told him I was giving him this party and I did NOT want ANY help from his mother!!!! Hope its a nice day outside so we can be out there instead of indoors or its going to be a LONG day if she shows up!!!!!!!!!! SIGHS......
Well I better get off here and find a different chair to get this back comfy...Prayers and thoughts for those that need them!!!
HUGS
Good morning all my OFF sistas,
Only have time for a quick note this morning. Thanks to all of you *****sponded to my prayer request last night. I am a worrier by nature, and when I worry, I eat! OMG. Stress eating. It's not good. I just can't seem to stop putting bites of food in my mouth. I'm determined to do better today, if possible.
The good news is that I THINK my sweet husband will be home tomorrow as scheduled. Last word I had from him was that they had made it to the shipyard in Dubai. Hopefully that means he has already left the rig this morning and I'll hear from him from Amsterdam tonight. Cross fingers and swing cats, as Eileen likes to say! I sure could use his love and support right now.
I think my car deal has fallen apart. They were bringing my new Edge in from out-of-state, but I think there's a problem between the two dealerships. The one in Colorado doesn't like anything the one in Texas has to offer for a trade. All I know is that the Edge is still sitting in Colorado this morning and isn't likely to leave there. Time for me to practice what I preach and believe that all things work to good for those who love the Lord. There's probably a reason why I'm not getting this new car right now. Probably going to need the money for something else in my near future, huh?
Well, I've got to scoot. Headed into San Antonio to babysit Benny this afternoon. I want to run some errands before I get there, so I need to skedaddle.
Love you all!

Hi Nancy and all OFF family,
Nancy: My thoughts are with you as you fight your battle with this cancer. It's good you're clearing your schedule. I'm glad the kitty is now eating the dry food.
I didn't go to bed at all last night. Still too awake to even bother trying. I will have lunch with 2 of my friends at 1:00PM and dinner with another couple at 5:30PM. No real time for a nap so I guess I'll be good and ready to sleep tonight. Little manic but not off the wall stupid.
I think I mentioned that our friend, Jerry, said he wanted to go out for dinner before I leave. So it is scheduled for Monday. I found out that he wants to go to a buffet. That's a big waste of money on his part. Oh well, looks like we are going. I don't like buffets because I can't take the leftovers home.
Hugs and prayers for those in need. Mag

Hi All,
It's been a while since I've posted...I do usually read your posts but I'm not always up to responding. I'm not as "up" as I usually am. I'm sure you understand. I'm having an estate sale this Friday/Saturday to liquidate the remainder of my Mom's belongings. I'm irritable, on edge. I need to get the process done so that I can just grieve. Soon I hope.
I have some questions for you Nancy- is this a reoccurrance of your old cancer (same breast, same spot) or a new cancer? Have they staged it yet? How big is it? I'm assuming that they will take a sentinel node during surgery. I'm curious because I go every six months to my oncologist in San Francisco and I wonder if this will happen to me too... new cancers popping up every ten years...
Back to work now... thinking of those of you that are in a slump... we can walk together for a while in that little ditch- climb up with each other's help.

Haven't been on for a couple days -- busy, busy!
For those who are not on Facebook, my new guy friend gave me bad news on Monday -- his son-in-law was critically injured in an auto accident Monday morning. They were not giving much hope that he would come out of it, but Praise the Lord, he is finally starting to regain consciousness, and of course has a very long road to recovery.
Good Dad that he is, Jim is flying out to Okla City this afternoon to help out his daughter and grandson. Don't know how long he'll be gone. I wouldn't want it any other way.
We were able to spend some time together this afternoon before he leaves.....I'm going to be very blue while he's away.
One good thing has come out of meeting a new friend, well more than one actually, but the main one is I've lost 10 1/2 lbs since meeting him..... food is not nearly as attractive when you have someone who cares about you.
My new office space is okay, will take some getting used to.
First day in the new space, and still trying to get organized.
The storage is great -- didn't have any before.
Gloomy and rainy here again today.....need some sunshine.
My labs were good for my 4 yr checkup except for the vitamin D - they upped my dosage to 5,000 i.u.
Time to go now -- good thoughts and prayers for all.

Hi Nancy B and OFF family...Nancy I have a preggo Mamma cat I call her, she is ready to have a litter any day now. She is friendly and lets me hold and pet her. I will get her fixed soon. Ugh! But she is a friendly long haired tiger cat and she meets me in the driveway every day when I pull up.
Just call me Ellie Mae Clampett...I love animals. All kinds, I'm not a animal snob! LOL
So today at work we are having a potluck for one of the nurses, he is 60 but really 40...yep 60 is the new 40!
I got some grocery shopping done today this morning. Missed my walk again today so tomorrow I'm going to be walking with the doggies.
Nothing new with me but I'm craving some sunshine...it's been cold and rainy all week here.
Hugs and prayers for all in need. Debbie
