And so the week begins

WHEW! Where in the hell did our holiday go? It seems just like yesterday was Friday. URGH…I guess it is back to work we go.

I went to my bosses’ house on Friday and played poker. He had made dinner as we had shrimp scampi and grilled beef tenderloin. The meal was very tasty and hit the spot. There are 15 people in our company and 9 showed up…the fun 9 ifyouknowwhatimean! I stayed until around midnight and was only the second person to leave. Was that too early?

Saturday rolls around and I was sick. I had a stomach flu/virus that just about did me in. I took some medication that the doctor had prescribed when I got food poison little over a year ago. It settled my stomach and put me to sleep. I slept all afternoon and started feeling better that night.

My family had planned a picnic in a little secluded park in Gatlingburg for Sunday. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to make it but I did but I didn’t get to eat everything I wanted in fear of it upsetting my stomach. I ate mashed potatoes and a couple of rolls from KFingC…that was really all I thought I could eat without upsetting the ole tummy.

I have been busy today cleaning the house, car and clothes. The temps have gone from the lower 50s (as highs) to 90 degrees today with hella lot of humidity. I was outside for about an hour and half to wash the car and was completely drenched in sweat by the time I finished.

I hope everyone has a great start to the work week!

An update on many things

Sorry for the delay in updating but it has been busy and I have had a bad case of the blahs.

FAMILY

My nephew that’s in high school has been playing in the state baseball playoffs over the last couple of weeks. He is going to the same high school that I went to and the baseball team had never made it out of the region tournament. My nephew’s team made it past the region and was one game away from going all the way to the final playoff. They lost last night 4-1 and my nephew hit the home run that was the one run. It was a great run and they had a terrific season. CONGARATS!

My mom has been going to doctors (many different ones) over the past few months trying to find out why her mouth has been so dry that her tongue is splitting open and looking terrible! Friday some test results came back and the doctor has diagnosed her with having Sjogren’s Syndrome. More tests have to be done next week to determine if it is a primary or secondary disease. If it is a primary disease then there isn’t much to do but treat it with medication. If it is a secondary disease then the search begins to find out if she has rheumatoid arthritis (which I don’t think this is it), scleroderma or lupus.

FRIENDS

One of my bestest friends has been in Paris for the past week and got home today with a terrible cold. Actually, I think it is something more like strep throat as he is having a difficult time just swallowing (with no food/water in his mouth). I hope he goes to the doctor because he doesn’t need to give it to everyone!

WORK

I had been doing fairly well at work until I had a run of 2 and a half weeks of selling absofreakinlutely nothing! I was beginning to get down on my job and then Thursday and Friday were the last straws…I hit rock bottom and basically did nothing Friday but stare off into space.

ME

I took last night to really mope and just have a pity party so today I have concentrated on getting things going by staying active and just being positive overall. I went to Wallyworld with my parents, went to eat at KFingC and then cut the grass. I then treated myself to some of my favorite slutty things to do to get me in a better mood (I won’t go into it here but it will be another post later).

WHAT NEXT?

Well, I am promising myself that I am going to better at getting around the blogs and updating on a more timely manner. I think getting around to the blogs will help with my mood swings and keep my mind off other things that have been bringing me down. I don’t know if my sister will go with my mom to the doctor next week and if not then I will. However, everyone please think good thoughts for her!

{{{HUGS}}} to everyone!

Hello

I just wanted to post a little smooch to everyone and thanks for visiting. I am having a rough time right now as life is kicking me in the ass. I will give a longer explanation and more info later this week.

* SMOOCH*

I STILL hate Nancy Grace!

Just a quick update…

Work is going ok. I have made a few sales and repairs but nothing major. I have to really work my ass off the next three weeks so I can get a paycheck next month. I still hate people in general. I had forgotten that many people in purchasing/materials management are real bastards and just plain rude! Oh well…part of the job I guess.

One of my best friends has his 34th birthday party Saturday! The party will be a Mexican themed party with plenty of food (as it is being catered) and drinks. The party is also for his wife who is giving birth to their first child. They found yesterday it is a boy and I am going to try and get the parents to let us all get together after a night of drinking and name the kid. After Mexican food…I can feel Jose being a very popular name. No?

Kahlua isn’t getting as much exercise since I am working away from home and is gaining weight. I am going to have concentrate on putting her on a somewhat diet with some exercise.

TAR, Survivor and American Idol roll on with idiots posting at rapid paces over to the other place! The Apprentice forum has almost caught up with the AI forum as far as idiots go…however; I am posting sparingly over there.

I do apologize for not making the blog world rounds as often as I would like…I do read more than I post so if you don’t see me posting it doesn’t mean I ain’t reading. UMKAY?

Nutz? HEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

BTW, you ask why the title for this post? Because it really pleased me and made me smile as I was typing.
