I'm fine

Well I made it through the colonoscopy just fine. Even though I don't remember a thing from last night. I went to school and after 11 am I couldn't have anything else to drink. I was very tired through class and could hardly keep my head up. I was on a liquid diet the night before. And not to mention the "headache". But I made it and even made a 92 on a test. WOW!!! Yea, I was surprised too.
Then off to the doctor's office we go at 230pm. Get there and had to fill out a form, ok; asking a person who is cranky, hadn't had anything "good" to eat or drink wasn't the best thing to do. But low and behold, I filled it out(with a few mistakes). I signed in the wrong place and had to scratch it out and resign it.
Go back. They get the vitals and I change into a gown. Then off to the little room to do the procedure. I had an I.V. put in me and my headache started to go away. The doctor was talking to me and the nurse injected the "wonderful meds" into my I.V. And that was the last thing I remembered.
I don't remember getting dressed, getting into the car or going by the drugstore with Mr. Wolf.
I remember NOTHING about last night. And apparently a girl I work with asked me work for her and I said yes and remembered that.
They gave me some GOOD DRUGS!!! I want some more,lol. I don't even remember doing some homework or watching t.v. either.
Oh well, I am fine. Still a little sluggish today but okay. Better today than yesterday.
Mr. Wolf was telling me this morning all about last night and I couldn't remember ANYTHING.
Oh well, as long as I didn't kill anyone I should be okay.
Or did I????????????????

Hello everyone

Sorry I haven't been on my blog until this am. We went to N.J. for Thanksgiving. We had a really good time. My daughter went with us along with the puppy. He loved "grandma" and I do have to say she loved him too. Oh don't worry, he got to eat turkey too.
I'm really glad to be home. I missed our cats while we were gone.
Now it's time to get ready for Christmas. I did have Mr. Wolf hang up our wreath. So that is a start. I might work on somethings today inside the house.
But first I have to study for school.
I had midterms last Tues. and did ok. I made an "88" on my midterm. I could've done better. But that's not bad with everything that is going on with my health right now. Also I had found a lump in my right breast. It's nothing. It has gone down in size and I had one several years ago. But I am still gonna have it checked out. More than likely it's a swollen lymph node.
I just have to get through today and tomorrow first. Tonight I start the process for the colonoscpy on Tues. at 3:30pm. Yea, that's gonna be fun.
At least it will be over soon and behind me. We should know something after the test is complete. Hopefully it's not too bad.
I hope that everyone had a good Thanksgiving. I did. I have alot to be thankful for.
One is all the people that read my blog and the friendships I've made through the blogs.
Thank you all.

It's me again....

Well the doctor visit went as well as expected. I am scheduled to have a colonoscopy done on Tues. the 28th at 3:30pm. It's just the night before prep stuff I have to endure. YUCK!!!!!
And only a clear liquid diet too. I can have my coffee, just no milk. I will survive though.
I am in the process of ironing. Boy do I hate it. I am ironing my scrubs for tomorrow. Well, at least they will be neatly pressed and with creases in them. I wonder how long that will last,lol.
Well, back to the ironing.
If I'm not on before turkey day,
HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ALL!!!!!
Enjoy your turkey, stuffing and all the trimmings.

Trouble with blogging

I haven't had anything much to say. I have been busy working,studying and going to school. And on Tues. I have mid-terms. WOW!!! I am doing well in class. This weekend is my first clinical. We go on the weekend to a nearby nursing home to get "hands on" training. Last Sun. we were there and basically toured the home and talked. But this weekend we get to do it.
It was hard seeing some of those patients in there. Some are really ill and others their families can't take care of them. But I did meet alot of nice people while I was there.
They would smile when I'd talk to them. That is all that some of them need. Someone to talk to them. You know that saying." A SMILE GOES A LONG WAY."
Well, it's true with them. Sometimes a smile is all they want from you and that makes their day.
I know that I can do this job. I've raised 3 childern and these people are like little kids. They all need some TLC.
But my biggest worry right now is, my doctor's appointment today at 2pm. It's with a gastrospecialist. I just hope everything goes well.
Wish me luck with the doctor and this weekend.
More later..................

Great News

Well I got some great news. Looks like Mr. Wolf will be home for Thanksgiving. WOW!!
He is leaving the Island of Shemya on Fri. and will be home either Sat. or Sun. He's coming home this weekend and my daughter is leaving for Tx. on Sun. Well, at least his mother will be happy that he'll be able to spend Thanksgiving this year with the family.
Poor guy though. He'll be home for about 3 days after traveling and then we'll be driving to N.J. to his parents house. I'm sure he'll get some rest while he's home. That is if I don't make him a "A Honey Do List". LOL!!!
I'm just excitited that I get to spend Thanksgiving with him. It'll actually be our first one together, and that means alot to me and him.
He has told me that it's been very cold there. It's been close to the 70's here. Poor guy.
But he'll be home soon and I can't wait.
Have a safe trip hunny!

Rant......

It is Sat. night and nothing is on t.v. or cable to watch. So as I was flipping through the channels, guess what I found on t.v.? HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS. Come on, it's not even Thanksgiving yet. It's bad enough they are showing Christmas commericals already. Can't they wait until after Thanksgiving? Soon we'll be seeing Christmas stuff in July. I swear it's earlier and earlier every year.
But at least The Wizard of Oz is coming on next. And that is a classic to watch.
I just think they should wait a little bit longer before running Christmas shows. What about some Thanksgiving shows or cartoons?
That's my 2 cents worth. What do you think?
Do you think that retailers should wait before running Christmas commercials?
Do you think that t.v. channels should wait until AFTER Thanksgiving to start with all the Christmas stories and cartoons?
Let me hear your 2 cents worth.

ENOUGH

Well it's Friday again. I am off from school and work and enjoying "my girls day" out with my daughter. First we went and got out nails done. Something I like to do. I feel like it is something I do for "myself". Like pampering myself. Yeah that's it.
Then we went to go to the DMV and they were closed. I forget today is like a hoilday. Oh well, so we went across the street to Applebee's for lunch. Very nice lunch we had. I had their new Herb Crusted Chicken, which was very good.
Then we go to Target and do some shopping.
Then I told my daughter if I saw another Amazon box on our front door I was gonna scream.
"SCREAM. SCREAM".
I did. And there was yet ANOTHER AMAZON BOX on the front door steps.
Come on, how many books does Mr. Wolf really need. He has gotten a box from them since Sat. Come on. We don't even have room for these extra books yet does he have time to read them.
So I didn't feel guilty about buying this cute warm suit that I got, or a new black purse.
Come women, we all need a black purse-right. Thank you.
Well, thanks for letting me vent to yall. Oh not to mention I did get a call from work, the bartender was sick and they wanted me to work. This was before I knew the DMV was closed and besides I needed some "mother and daughter time".
More later.
And did anyone catch Grey's Anatomy last night??????
Do post what you thought!!!!

What a day????

Well, I thought it was gonna be a good day at work. It was over cast and we are usually busy on those type of days. It wasn't busy - at all. Oh well. First I normally work the bar on Mon. and Wed. from 10:30-5pm. I found out today that I no longer work those days. That was the only reason I decided to keep working there, cause it was in between classes for me and it was durning the day. Anyway, this girl(who is suppose to be the asst. manager) decided she was gonna work those days so she could do the beer and liquor order for the weekends. Well my boss said"it wasn't getting done". So why let her work those shifts, if she isn't gonna do her JOB. I don't understand that. So, I figured I'd work Mon. and Wed. nights, that why I still have a job and some spending money. That just totally pissed me off. That she'd take over my shifts. But it doesn't bother me at all. As long as I can study for school, I don't care.
Then I get a phone call from my dad. He asked what I was doing. I told him I was cooking dinner. He said, "No your cooking supper." I told him it didn't make a difference, I was cooking. He said dinner is what you eat in the afternoon and supper is at night. I should know this, since I'm a SOUTHERN GIRL. I had to laugh at me and say "ok, it's supper". He laughed at me. My dad is really great. He is a true southern. He lives in Blairsville, GA. That is basically considered redneck or hillbilly country. It's in the mountains near Tn. When I talk to him, I can hear my southern accent come out. But then it soons goes away. I know where my roots are.
I haven't heard from Mr. Wolf since this morning when he said he was getting ready to leave for the island of Sheyma. And that was about 11:30 am (my time) he called. I hope everything is ok. I can't study cause I'm worried about him. I know he's okay. I hope he's okay.
He's okay, isn't he?
He did say last night there was snow everywhere. On the mountain tops and the lakes were frozen. I guess it is pretty cold there. Hope he's wearing his thermal underwear.
Need to go check on"supper", and get to studying. Got a test tomorrow.
Good night everyone(for now). God Bless you all.

Good morning.........

Well, I didn't sleep too well. I kept waking up at all hours throughout the night. My neck is stiff and so is my back. Just not the same without Mr. Wolf here. It's actually warm here this morning. I thought it was Nov.
I'm sitting here enjoying my coffee and listening to the birds outside and some loud dog barking down the street. But I like my mornings,"nice and quite".
Mr. Wolf made it to Alaska. He will be flying the island of Sheyma today. I just hope he's not gone as long as they said they would be. It's be nice to have him back in time for Thanksgiving.
Well, I need to get for work. I work today then school tomorrow and off on Fri. Hopefully I can sleep in a bit then. More later...........

All by myself.

All by myself..............
Isn't that a song? Mr. Wolf left for Alaska today. He should be arriving in a few hours there. I was in school when he called me and he said he was broading the plane in MN. But at least I got to say another "hello and I love you". I got up at 5:30 am this morning to take him to the airport. Boy, was I tired.
Then off to school. I was fighting so hard to stay awake and try not to yawn. So on break, off to the 7-11 for a 24oz. cup of java. Then it was test time. Didn't do bad for someone that hardly studied. Made a 90.
I was busy watching the Country Music Awards last night and trying to studying. But Mr. Wolf did tell me this am not to try to study and watch t.v.
And then after class came home. AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!
The silence. My daughter was over at a friends house helping her out with her little one(she's 3 yrs. old). So I made a pot of coffee and snacked and laid on the sofa and took a NAP. One-I needed it and two-why not since no one was here.
The puppy even curled up with me and slept next to me too.
It's still quite in the house. It's getting chilly out and suppose to rain. So hopefully with the rain I can sleep good. I usually don't sleep well the first night that Mr. Wolf is gone. I'm still tired so I don't think I won't have any problem sleeping.
See, this is when I need my hubby. I need more milk and now I'm gonna have to walk next door to Food Lion and get it, and I HATE GOING OVER THERE. Oh well, it's close and it's within walking distance. I'm just feeling lazy.
So off to get milk. And enjoy the rest of the quite. Yea, daughter is still at friends house. THANK GOODNESS.

WONDER JOCK..................

I was checking email and came across this photo on yahaoo news pictures.
I can see women having the "wonder bra" and now men with the "wonderjock".
I do have to say it looks interesting,huh????
Can I see some jeans or pants on this guy?
Na, looks fine with undies.

T.G.I.F.

Yes it's Friday. I needed today off from work and school, even though I have to study. It's been a long week and a even longer one is coming up.
I thought I'd start my morning by enjoying the peace and quite. Until much to my surprise I hear a strange noise upstairs. So I go and look to see what the cats have done? The kitten,Boots-who has been very playful and full energy this morning; has knocked over a table with a plant sitting ontop of it. So I clean most of it, have to vacuum the bedroom later. Locked all 3 cats out of our bedroom for a bit.
Then proceed to continue watching "Grey's Anatomy", that I recorded last night. So I got to finish watching it.
Until my daughter gets up with the puppy. And he's wanting nothing but,ATTENTION from anyone who'll give it to him.
Then I realized my hubby leaves on Tues. for Alaska for a month. Great. I've gottne use to having him around and being able to snuggle up to him on the cold nights. The depression sets in. Along with him missing "Thanksgiving-again". Oh well, life goes on and I'll deal with it. It shouldn't be too bad, I'm spending 3 days with his parents in N.J. OMG! The horror!(LOL). I love his parents and they love me. Beside his mom cooks enough food for an army.
I miss Mr. Wolf when he's gone. He's my big teddybear. Well, I'll have the cats sleeping with me but not the warmth from hubby. But hey, I look at this way-I GET THE WHOLE BED TO MYSELF......... YESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!
Well, I did vacuum the bedroom where the cat made the wonderful mess and loaded the dishwasher and started a load of laundry.
So now if I can pull myself away from this computer, I'm gonna go study and relax abit today.
It's too windy and cold to go out and do anything.
Have a GREAT FRIDAY AND WONDERFUL WEEKEND EVERYONE!!!!!

Time................

Okay I have to admit that I just can't seem to sit my butt down and study. How am I going to pass my test if I don't? I came upstairs to research something on the computer and did but somehow found my way to reading BLOGS. I can't help it. I AM ADDICTIED. It's like I have to read them to keep in touch with reality. Is that wrong?
Since I've started school and work 2 days a week and have been sick the past week, I haven't gotten out much. It seems all I do is work, school and some housework. I just feel like I have lost touch with the world. Oh dear god! I need a life. Wait a minute, that is WHY I am going to school to better my life. Slap me and wake me up, please.
I do have this coming weekend off before things start get really confussed in my life. Starting on the 11th of Nov. I start clinical work. So I need to enjoy this last weekend and try to have fun. I need to try to sleep in. This time change has messed me up. I'm up at 630 am just about every morning.
By the way, I enjoy reading the blogs. It makes me laugh and think about my own life and things in it I have gone through.
So everyone keep up the good work and writing and keep me in touch with reality.
Keep me laughing and thinking and wondering.
