SO MANY BLESSINGS

I woke up in a real funk this morning. Not really any thing specific bothering me but just couldn't get this down feeling to shake off. Wanted to cry but just couldn't which is unusual for me. Got to work early because I had so much to get done before seeing patients. My doctor got there and knew something was bothering me. Told her I was just in a funk and that I had prayed on the way to work to help me get rid of the feeling I was having. Also prayed for patience, but you know I am not good at patience. The Dr. was standing in front of the nurses station and told me to come around to where she was standing. I said okay. So I went around and she said look up there. Above our back door is a window and in the window you can see the cross on the church behind us. She said when they use to do regular charting before we had the computers and she would be frazzled, she would look up and feel a sense of peace and comfort. So a couple of times today I looked at that cross and did feel better. All of us need to take a couple of minutes and think about all our blessings. All the things that we take for granted and all that we have. We may want for more but we are all holding our heads above water. We should thank God every day for our health, the happiness that our family times bring. On my way home I thought about that cross several times. What a good feeling it was and it did bring comfort and joy. As I write this I am still a little down, but I count all the blessings that I have and it makes me smile. Tomorrow will be another day and hopefully I will be in a different mood. But, always I will have blessings of my family. That will always make me smile.

Half the Week almost done

Well today is suppose to be my day off but I am working at Buffalo. They don't get there early so I don't have to leave as early. Really tired this morning, but maybe will get motivated after another 2 cups of java.
Nothing much new to report. Buffy and Kyle met Kyle's new niece Avery this week. They said she was beautiful & that his other niece had really grown. They also said Chessi is doing well since she had a get away to Papa Lon's doggie boot camp. He does amazing things to dogs. (Well the shock collar does.LOL)
Looking forward to the road trip with Sarah and the boys. It will be interesting to say the least. Hope the boys travel well.
Rained last night and suppose to have showers around today and then to clear out and be HOT AND MUGGIE! YUCKY POO POO. Hot weather sucks. Let's just have 70 degrees and a nice calm breeze. That would be ideal.
Sheree and Lisa are fine. Their mom was in for a visit. And, Zach hasn't changed much. Just let me say that the time in the place hasn't helped and Ryan is following in the same path. I wish that they had teen boot camps that were hard on these kids. Think that would make more impact than anything.
Been fighting off a cold. Settled in my chest and has made me feel terrible. Started on some medication I had here. The old medicine chest is getting bare. Sure wish that we could still give samples at work. Would be nice to have access to antibiotics and such. But, the policy is no samples. Again screw the employees.
Could go off on a tangent but really just don't have the energy to do it.
The old mammy is worn out and tired so I will get some more coffee in me and get ready to face a new day at work. Just a little different place today. We have been super busy at the office this week. Last week not busy this week swamped. Craziness.
Have a day my wonderful family. God bless you all.

Beginning another week

This Friday is Dawson's last T-ball game of the season. He is really getting good at hitting the ball from the T. Hopefully it is at 7 and not 6 because for some reason Friday's are super busy for us at work.

It is 4 am and I am up and trying to get awake to get ready to go to work. I am sure it will be really busy since it was a holiday weekend. On Thursday I had 22 voice mails in the afternoon and the day was packed. Seemed like 2 days in one. Just keep plodding away. One lady didn't like me at all. And she told me so. That took me back a little. Oh well everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Count down is on for Tennessee. Bless my son-in-law Josh for getting new parts on my car. He worked so hard on Sat. night getting them on. Thank you a thousand times Josh. It still has a little miss but is so much better. Has power now that it didn't have. Will get the car and trunk all cleaned out and spiffied up for our trip. Sarah said that she would put the pedal to the metal and get us there since I drive like an old GMA. I will let her. I will co-pilot. She doesn't think that the boys will sleep. So, we will see. Maybe they will surprise her and do really good.

I think the cold I had has settled in my chest and I am coughing up yellow. Will see if I have some antibiotics around to see if I can get rid of it. Hopefully I can. Gotta be well because I have a long week ahead. Want to get into the office early today and get prepped for the day.

So, today just makes it a day closer to Tenneessee and that is a good thing. Be good to have some laughs and hug my girl and hug Zek. And like Sarah said our trip should be FUN! Not sure if Papa is going down or not. Kyle would really like for him to or he is going to be out numbered and have to ride all that way with Megan and Buffy. That should be interesting.

Everyone have a great week. Say a prayer for Des. Keep the fire fighters in California in your prayers. Try and help someone this week. Just lending an ear or saying hello to a stranger might make their day.

Till the next post........

Time to cut back

I think I have gained 10 pounds over the holiday. Time to cut back on the eatting. We had a super day yesterday. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Gma went to sleep in her chair so she was late getting here.

BIG THANK YOU to JOSH for putting the things on my car!!!! Sorry you had such a hard job doing that. But, I really appreciate it and it will make my car run so much better. Promise to do something nice for you real soon.

Buffy and Kyle took Chessi home last night. So, we are down to our 2 dogs. Maggi's hip is still bothering her. Babe is learning how to be jealous and get to you to get attention, but she is still a RABBIT DOG at heart.

Wish Amy and her family and Megan could have been here yesterday. That would have made the day picture perfect. But, we will all be together soon at Amy's. Oh, poor Kyle will see just what we can be like when we get all together.

Last night Buffy and Kyle told me that Kyle says when ever they get married they will get married at the Meth. Church where Buffy grew up. And Buffy added she didnt even have to fight about it and she was ready to fight. So, it will be a while but we know where the ceremony will be. The reception dont know.

Well the mammy is going to play a game and relax this morning and then get busy with the laundry and etc. Don't have that many dishes from last night.

Hope everyone has a good week. I work 5 days this week so I will be a tired old gal. Dawson has his last ball game on Friday night so will have to go to that. Dont know what I am doing up so early this morning. My body feels like it needs to go back to bed but we will see if I do.

Love to all. Till next post.
