Coping With Healing
Before Thanksgiving I was exploring my options with jobs. There were a couple of interviews that were done and unfortunately one was good for me or it wasn’t good enough for them and I didn’t get a call or email back. One would have been too difficult to train for with all the driving on…

Defeated
For the past couple of days I have felt that way. I can’t keep up with my posts lately, since last Thursday I have been in a state of bewilderment. Due to my cousin’s assistance in coaching me through my interview I was more prepared than I have ever been for one. However, I was…

Graduated… Again

The Countdown Is On
The last list has been written down. However, some last minute cleaning duties are still being done. Dad did the outside stuff weeks ago and it made the carport, back patio, front patio and the picnic table look nearly brand new once again. A day or two ago a new idea came to mind. I…

Last Night
After we got back from our hair appointment. I had already felt the pains of a migraine before we even left the salon. Taking Tylenol didn’t seem to help at all. When I got home I was still fighting it but I had to at least try to get my bike ride partially in. I…

The Day After… Surgery
This is the first time I didn’t have my pain medicine the day of surgery, but we got home late. So it was apparent we needed to get up early to get it. Early was not the word of the day however. Instead we got to Sullivan and before all of this happened I was…
