Tough Week...so far

What a week - and it's not even Friday yet. My friends, Susan and Dennis, have been dealing with major health issues for Dennis. He's been battling thyroid cancer, which they thought was one of the two most treatable kinds; but in the last week he's suffered a stroke and the cancer is spreading. He had brain surgery on Saturday, and was transferred to a rehabilitation center today. He has been accepted at MD Anderson Cancer Hospital in Houston, so it's just a matter of time before they head to Texas. Please keep them in your prayers. They are a very special couple, and Dennis is only a year older than me.

Also got news today that another friend lost her sister-in-law. She had been in a coma for about 4 weeks. She leaves 3 young children. So, so sad!

Put that together with some "abnormal" work issues, and it's been a long week! I am so glad tomorrow is Friday - not only because I get a 3 day weekend (I'm off Monday) but because Kaitlin is coming home for 3 days! They don't have classes on Monday, so she took 3 days off work and is coming home to see momma and daddy! AND her pets! She really misses them. One of the guys she went to Heights with is riding home with her tomorrow evening. She doesn't get off work until 7 so they should make it to Wichita by 10pm. We've been chatting online off and on all week, and we're both so excited we can hardly stand it!


My CD player isn't working in my car right now. I'm going to use the CD cleaner on it - when I find it! I hope that's all it needs. Can't afford to replace it right now.


I'm so excited about Donny Osmond being on Dancing with the Stars. You probably remember 2 years ago when Marie Osmond was on and I was obsessed with it. I've never watched this show except for when the "Osmond" connection was on it. I'm rooting for Donny all the way. I think he's one of the best, and if they can quit complaining about his age, he'll kick some booty. He'll be 52 in December, and that's still younger than me!


Looking forward to the weekend...supposed to be beautiful weather and I can spend it with the hubby and daughter. Hope the boys come home soon because I'm missing them too!

Isn't This Gross?

Corby lets Muffin drink out of his milk glass. Isn't that disgusting? I love animals, but I sure don't share my drinks with them. YUCK! Brandon will be home tomorrow - on his 19th birthday! His last final is at 12:30. Corby & Kaleb are headed up to help him bring his stuff home. I was planning on going, but because Hope is out on medical leave, I can't take off. That's okay - I really wasn't looking forward to carrying his stuff down 7 flights of stairs! YIPPEE - MY BABY IS COMING HOME FOR THE SUMMER! Does anyone else out there love "House Hunters" - the show on HGTV? For some reason, that show grabs me. I like to see the 3 houses the couples (sometimes singles) choose from. Of course, most of them have a lot more money than we do! Saw one last night that was a young couple in Chicago - lived in the inner city, but with 2 kids decided to move to the suburbs. Their goal was to find a house for under $1,000,000. That a million dollars folks! How can peop...

Terrible Day

I'm not going to go into a lot of detail here, but suffice it to say that I had a TERRIBLE day at work! I made a huge mistake costing the company some revenue, and I feel awful! I certainly didn't need anyone to get on my butt, because I was kicking myself for the better part of the day. I know, I know, I'm human, but this was a BIG human mistake! I hate to admit that I'm human! HATE TO MAKE MISTAKES - ESPECIALLY BIG ONES! Okay, that's it. I'm having a margarita and trying to relax now. I'm done with being human for a while!
