Topic: Happy Friday!!!!!

Glad to see y ou survived your annula camping trip, Michelle!!!  Too bad that you really had to 'rough it' with no water and no power.  HA!!!  Actually, I am quite spoiled with our camper, so I should not poke fun.  I had no problem tent camping, but wow, when we bought that camper, WOW, what a difference!!!!

Not too much planned for the weekend, thankfully.  Oh, wait, I forgot, we are going to go over to DH's sister's for dinner either Sun or Mon, before his parents fly home to California Tuesday morning.  I have had a nice visit with them.  I will miss them when they leave.  I have told them that they need to move up here to be closer..... DH & I even had a plan!!!!  To buy the duplex next door (DH's mom does not do staits too wll and we live in a ranch home) and move us out of our house and live there and we would live in the duplex with the stairs.  Just rent our side to us for our mortage payment on the house & then if it snowed, DH would take care of both of the driveways!!!!!  But DH and his dad would have to share the shop!!!!!
I am thinking that his parents were kind of laughing at us, but saw we were serious, so hopefully they will truely think about it.




Have a GREAT weekend!!!!!!

So glad everything went well, Jamie.  I was thinking about you!

I had an amazing time in Vegas!  It was wonderful...got to spend lots of time with some cousins I haven't seen in a long time.  The Donny and Marie show was amazing as was meeting Donny afterwards.  He's a very amazing person.  Not at all you would imagine from a celebrity. 

Life has been crazy busy here.  Between softball, t-ball, church, and other activities I've barely had time to breath.   Last weekend we went camping for our yearly trip with my family.   We got there Friday afternoon and about 7pm that night a HUGE...and I mean HUGE storm blew through.   There were literally thousands of trees blown down all over.  One fell on one of the cabins and one on a couple of cars.  The power was knocked out and along with that came no running water.  We really did rough it for the weekend...which didn't bother me at all.  The area we were in is still without power today and doesn't expect it to be up for about another week.  Yes, this was  a very HUGE storm.  Just thankful that none of us was hurt.  One 11 yr old little girl was killed by a falling tree though.   What a horrible horrible thing to deal with.

Well I hope things continue to go well for you , Jamie!

Back to work today, and all is well.  Everything went well.  Minimal pain & discomfort.  No complications either.

Glad this part is all done with.  Next month we will set up the appointment to get my Essure checked, and then I will be getting ready to get my D & C and my ablation scheduled.  So glad I was able to avoid a hysterectomy.


Michelle, hope you had a GREAT time in Vegas!!!!!

Ohhh I've waited for this for a long time.  I'm working til 2:30 today then have a meeting at the christian radio station about our financial peace university class we will be teaching in the fall.   After that's over I will drop Luke and Sadie off and I'll be on my way!!!   I'll miss them but I soooo need this.  I'm driving to my sister's tonight and then tomorrow morning we fly out to Vegas to meet other cousins and relatives!!  It's going to be great fun.   Wed night we're going to a hypnotist show...Thurs is the Donny and Marie show and the bday party.  No plans other than that just going to see what happens.   I'll be back home Sat evening.  

I hope things go well for you, Jamie!!  I'm thinking of you and praying for you!

Topic: Finally FRIDAY!!!!!!

So, my sis was fine with taking care of Hunter Wed & Thurs....... Her husband BROKE his leg!!??!!  He is 47 & a work-a-holic!!!!  DH went over there yesterday to give my sis a break & take the kids to the bounce house............... DH pulls up at my sister's house & see's my brother-in-law outside, his goal was to go for a WALK!!!!!!!!!!  He broke the tibia & it is a clean break, but GEEZZEEEEE!!!!!

My daycare lady's mom is doing a little better, she has pneumonia, and they doc's look as the tear & surgery in a couple weeks to a month, which I thought was strange, but I found out that that is actually good news that the doc's can put off the surgery, but keeping her blood pressure down is the challenge............... They should honestly keep her hospitalized and watch her blood pressure, only because I know gramma Dar, and stubbern and onrey go hand-in-hand with her.  So I honestly see her blood pressure going up even before she get out of the vehicle at her house!!!!

About my surgery.....  The doc is doing the D&C and the ablation along with checking the Essure in 3 months, so no D&C Tuesday.  Got all my pre-op stuff done yesterday!!!!  WHOOPPPPPPP!!!!  All out of the way, now I just get to scrub the house this weekend for my in-law's arrival Thursday.  I am SOOOOOOOO looking foward to that!!!!!


Michelle, have an AWSOME trip!!!!  You DESERVE it!!!!

Topic: Happy HUMP day!!!!!

Wow, an early morning here.  Even 25+ minutes early to work this morning too.  My day care lady is having a family emergency, so she is closed today & tomorrow.  Her mom is not doing good, and has been in the hospital since last week.  Has a tear in her heart, or the artery that comes out the back side of her heart.  And, since the doc's have not done surgery yet, they have had to sedate her to keep her calm and her blood pressure down, because of the tear, and somewhere in this time frame, they have had to put her on a ventalator.... she vomited and aspiratd that.  So, my daycare ladies brother & sister are flying up here from Florida, some arrived last night..... this is just not looking good at all.

So, my sis is taking care of Hunter & I had to take him over to her house this morning, and snice I was not sure how the traffic was going to, I ended up here at work really realy..... geeze, thought I might run late!!??

Tuesday, I have my surgery for my Essure, D&C, and my bladder..... Thursday, my in-laws arrive, so I will be sore, but I can enjoy their company and rest, and heal up too.




Is it nap time yet?  I am exhausted just thinking of this next week!!!!

Hi Jamie!!!  Sadie and I are still fighting this darn cold.  It's getting better but it's still there.

I am crazy busy!!  Work...softball,...t-ball... garage sale prep this week...all on top of trying to get ready for vacation.  Sadie had her first t-ball game last night and it was a blast!!  Another game tomorrow night.  

I'm jealous I want a fire pit!!!   Some day some day!   Sounds like the end of next week will be good for both of us!!   

Glad you're doing well!

Topic: RE: How are you doing today?
Jamie,

Thanks for checking!  I'm feeling like crap today LOL.   Not because of the anemia though...I've caught a lovely summer cold and working OT on top of it.   Today is my Friday though so soon it'll be over.   I'm just exhausted...i think a nap for lunch today is in order.   Sadie is coming down with it as well...oh joy!! 

Not sure what's up for our days off.   We were supposed to go to the baseball game tomorrow but we think someone took our tickets out of our van...they were in our glove box and now we can't find them.  Sooooo we'll hang around here probably.   My son smacked up my van the other day too so we have to take that in for an estimate tomorrow as well.   We're doing a garage sale next weekend so I need to work on getting all of that in order.  Lots to do!
