Back to Work

After 2 weeks & 2 days off I return to work tomorrow. My body is physically ready to return but my mind isn't. I am so afraid of what will be waiting for me when I return. Before I went on leave I filled in for a co-worker that was off for 7 weeks, I know I did the best that I could while she was gone. I am wondering if she did the same for me. We will find out in a little over 12 hours. I will either come home happy or totally pissed off.

Black Friday....Not for me

If you know me, you know I hate to shop. On Black Friday the only way you get me out there is if I think a deal is really really good. I can count the number of times I went out on Black Friday as an adult on one hand. So yes, this morning I got up for something that went on sale at 4am. I dragged my butt out of bed at 3am got dressed, brushed my teeth, put a baseball cap on and went to the store. OMG what a mad house. I asked people what their line was for and was happy when I found the line that I was there for only had 1 person in it. By the time 4am hit there were 4 of us in line for this item and guess what, the friggin store only had 5 of the item. So thank goodness I got one. The funny thing is there was a limit on this item 2 per person. Well HELLO stupid retailer. If you put a limit of 2 on something, you should have more than 5 available. What if there were more people in line or one of us in line wanted 2. DUMBASSES for not ordering more product per store. Anyway, now this item will be put away until Christmas. Oh, did I mention that it is a gift for me? LOL yes, I went out at 3am to get my own Christmas gift. Merry Christmas to me. LOL

Happy Thanksgiving

To all who may read my blog:

One More Week Off

I went to the doctor on Thursday to see how I am doing after the surgery. I am doing ok. My one incision isn't quit healed enough yet, I think because where it is that my pant rub against it. So I will be taking one more week off and return to work on Monday 11/28. That's OK. I guess I can get ready for Thanksgiving while I am recouperating. Looking forward to returning to work. Staying home all day gets a little boring.

bilateral laparoscopic salpingo oophorectomy

Yep, that is what I went through on Thursday 11/10/11 at 10:00am. Well that's when it was scheduled for. I didn't get in surgery until closer to 11:30am because the assistant surgeon wasn't available until then. I was able to come home a little later in the day than anticpated on Thursday evening due to nausea from the anesthesea and I kept falling to sleep. But, by 5:00pm the nausea passed and I was home by 6:00pm and in bed by 7:00pm. Occasional pain getting up for a sitting position, but otherwise doing ok. So glad the surgery went as planned and wasn't more than anticipated. I will see the doctor on Thursday to see if I can return to work on Monday. I will work for 3 days than off for the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. Thanks to everyone who sent prayers and positive thoughts!

And it's all down

All the Halloween decorations are now all down and packed away until next year. So sad to see them go, it's one of my favorite holiday's. Todd had off of work today so when Jordan got home our Christmas lights got hung. Yes Christmas. We always hang them the weekend after Halloween because we never know how the weather will be Thanksgiving weekend, plus with putting up the tree and other decorations on Thanksgiving weekend it gets pretty exhausting. Mind you, we don't light them until after Thanksgiving, we just have them up and ready. This year we purchased new lights and clip for them to hang from the gutter. We purchased LED lights and they seem so much crisper and lighter. Can't wait to see what they look like in the dark. I was told they were so much easier to hang. If pictures turn out, I will post them here after the holiday officially begins.
