comings and goings.

It's been a bit since I've last written and so much has happened since my last writing. Of course there was Thanksgiving. We celebrated on Wednesday since I had to work on Thanksgiving day. It was great. It was just my little family. We had Turkey, dressing, potatoes, gravy, corn and biscuits. Yummy!! I only wish my husband could have been home. But he's still gone. :(

On Friday when I worked, I cut my thumb really bad. I didn't go to the hospital though because the wound, which still hurts today as I write this, didn't appear bad enough to require stitches. It's really ugly. I was opening a syrup jar and the jar broke in my hand. There was a lot of blood. I worked the weekend and had my hands in water so it was really hard to have a bandaid on at all.

Today there is no travel advised so my son's MRI appointment had to be rescheduled. The hospital called me and asked if we were still coming. The woman on the phone made it sound like it would be a very bad idea if we tried coming in for the appointment, so I just decided that we would just reschedule. I have to call the insurance to get authorization anyway. The Dr that want the MRI will call and get the authorization. Then I have to call the appointment desk at the clinic to reschedule the MRI. What a mess. But it's really important for the authorization otherwise, I could be responsible for the full amount.

I am going to call my realator and make an appointment for this week to see some houses with my husband. There are two that are kind of in our price range. One has more potential than the other one. My husband will be coming home on Wednesday. I am so excited.

Today, I need a nap. I am very tired. I wanted to sleep in, but I thought I'd have this appointment and so I needed to get up at a decent time. Well, I have some things to do. SO have a great day.

Home and Away

My husband is still in New Orleans working with the guards. I sure do miss him. I can't wait for him to get home. In the meantime, I have been working a lot at my job, which isn't something I'm too fond of, but I feel is something I should do to help support my family. I enjoy my job but there are some aspects of it that aren't so much fun. Take today for example. I feel I can keep up pretty good, but I got 3 tables at the same time, and as I was putting in their orders, I got another table. I thought that I should punch in the orders and then go to that table and take the order. One of the managers who I usually have conflicts with, came and asked me if I was ever going to get to that table. I just didn't know what to do. Of course I was going to get to that table. It was just that I was busy putting in the orders for the 3 other tables. What's a girl to do. The day was truly a Monday. It did get better though. So that's nice. Now I'm busy watching tv, and I want to "try" to clean house as well. I don't have to work the next 3 days, but I have some other things that I need to do. The break from work will be nice. I am very tired. ~E.
