IS THIS "NOT" TERRIBLE

This is something that was in my email. I felt sorry for the poor cat.

What do you think?

The cat is ugly anyway. It's a "hairless cat".

AAHHH!!! IT'S FRIDAY!!!

Well, I made it through another "tough" week at work. I so look forward to Fridays now. I was busy at work but with that brought some bad news.
This is why sometimes I don't like my job.
I get "too attached" to some of the patients. That's just me, outgoing and fun.
I recently lost a sweet, very sweet patient. He never complained and always had a smile on his face when he came in for his chemo. Now, I'll never see him. But I always did pat his back or give him a hug and told him I loved him. I'll miss him dearly.
Then a patient today, whom I've come to know and love too, is being put on "hospice". I said my "good-byes" today. I was doing good at work, no tears. And I thought I handled it pretty well. I thought to myself," GOOD JOB YOU DIDN'T BREAK DOWN".
Well low and behold, on my way home from work, I heard a song. Tim McGraw,"Live like your were dying", and I started thinking of those two patients and teared up the whole way home.
I think God brings people into your lives for a reason. And I'm still to this day trying to figure out why he put me where I am today, in this profession.
I work in a hematology and oncology office. So it is HARD to deal with somethings.
I use to work in a nursing home and the dying part seemed somewhat easy for me. I mean come on, I helped take care of the people. But for some reason this job is HARDER. I guess because they are able to talk to me and laugh with me and I get to know them more and more.
Why has God put here in this job????
On the other hand, I've learned that my mother had died of pancreatic cancer,(she's been gone for 3 years now). Is it because of her that I am where I am???
God has a plan for everyone. I think I'm stilling searching for mine or have I found it?
Hopefully the weekend will nice and pleasant.
Have a good Friday everyone.
Thanks for listening(reading).

p.s.
It was 83 degress today and I was inside ALL DAY! And tomorrow it's suppose to rain----again.

depressed

Sorry I haven't written in awhile. But here. in VA. Beach; the sun hasn't come out until TODAY!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, it was so great to leave work and feel the sun beating down on my skin. I loved it. It has rained here since last Sat. YUCK! YUCK!!!! And now they are calling for more rain.
I am so-so-so-so ready for SUMMER. I want to lay out at the beach or sit outside and enjoy the sunshine. But no, more rain.
Plus with no sunshine, I do believe that it makes a person "depressed". I have been coming home and putting on p.j.'s and going to bed way earlier than normal. I just feel as if I have NO mo-jo.
And then on top of that, they are removing our windows and putting in new ones, and they came and did mine today. I did talk the guys into waiting as late as possible to block mine. So they did.
I even laid on my desk and had the sun beat down on my face. (glad my boss didn't walk by). But the fresh air and the sunshine felt so good. It'll probably be about 2-3 weeks before I get my new window. Bummer!!!
At least I enjoyed it for the time.
But it's 7:40p.m. here and the sun is just starting to go down.
Tomorrow it's suppose to be 75 degrees. Now that is some serious sunbathing time but I have to work. And the weekend it's calling for more RAIN!!!!!
GREAT!!!!!!! Not another weekend of rain and coldness.
CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So without sunshine in my life, it makes me depressed. And the fact there's nothing on t.v. All my shows haven't started YET!!!!!!!!
So right now I feel like LIFE SUCKS!!!!!!!!!

FOR MY HUBBY..........(bbw)

HAPPY 2 YEAR

ANNIVERSARY

BABY!!!!

XOXOXOX

FOR BBW..............

Basking in the warmth of your smile
And the music of your laugh I feel your tenderness
And your oh so witty style I don’t know why god blessed me
With such a friend as you
But it makes my pleasure complete
And very happy too
The way you always know me
And exactly what to do
When my loneliness gets me down
And I’m so very blue The way you see into my soul
And looked behind my eyes
And I don’t have to hide my feelings
And put on a disguise
With you I learned to trust
And as I person I have grown
Who could have possibly told me How could I have known
That you would come in to my life
And my beauty would start to bloom
And like a pretty butterfly Come out of my cocoon
To share your tender heart The warmness of your smile
The courage of your wisdom
For these I’d walk for miles To be thinking of a time
When you’d no longer be there
For me to gaze upon in delight
And all our feelings share Is not acceptable to me
Because in my life Is where I want you to be......
Always and forever

I'M OVER IT

I am so so so over the traffic. Everyday this week it has taken me an hour or more to get. USUALLY, it takes me 30-45 mins. to get home. What is up with all the crazy ass drivers???WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One my way to work one morning, I almost had 2 accidents; that would not have been my fault and then the stupid tunnel. When it sprinkles here or rains, no one can drive. This is truly INSANE!!!!! And then not being able to sleep. Come on, someone give me a break. I'm beginning to think the universe is messing with me. Did I do something to upset the universe. Not that I can recall.

All I have to say is," THANK GOODNES FOR FRIDAY!!!" If I can make it through tomorrow then I will be doing pretty good. Well, actually tomorrow I better be doing GREAT!!!!

It's my 2 year anniversary. Hubby will be coming home for the weekend. I can't wait to fall into his arms. I wanted to go out to celebrate our anniversary but if I don't get home until 6:30 or 7 p.m. , I maybe too tired. The traffic wears me OUT!!!! But I have all weekend with him, until he leaves on Sunday.

I do have to say it's been 2 wonderful years. He is a very amazing, caring, loving and supportive man. And let's not forget helpful. He helps me around the house alot. I do truly and deeply love him, with all my heart.

Gonna go grab a beer now and RELAX....try to anyway before tomorrow. Have a good one everyone.

Before and After Marriage.....

This was in my email. I got a kick out of it. Hope you do too.

STRANGE...........

Well, I got the word today that hubby was leaving. He's been home on vacation for 2 wks. now. He's off to Fort Bragg. At least he's only 3 hours away. Still in the same time zone and same country. So I can't complain.
But the FUNNY THING is, Fri. April 4th is our 2 year wedding anniversary. He is in the exact same place he was on our 1 year anniversary. But I drove to N.C. to be with him and then he drove back home with me.
Also, I should mention, we got snow the day I left and I ACCIDENTALLY shut our cat "Flower" in the closet for about 2 hours. I called my daughter who was house sitting for our best friend and she walked back home and let the cat out. This cat hates my daughter. You thought after she saved her she'd love her, but NO!!!
But the good news is, hubby is driving home Fri. afternoon. So we will get to spend our anniversary together. Neither one of us thought he'd be leaving this soon. I mean go into work, get the word and then he's gone. I actually left work an hour early to come home and say "goodbye" to him.
Like he said, "At least now I can hog the bed, since I do that anyway". Sorry honey I am a bed hog. But look at it this way, you won't have to hear me snore. HA!HA! (I don't snore.)
So now I'm all alone. He's gone, daughter is at boyfriends house. It's me and the animals. Oh joy!!!!!
I hope he makes it safe and sound.
I wonder is this gonna be a regular thing for our anniversary, him being in N.C. I hope not.
I had to share this strange but true story.

This is for you FREDDIE and other women that LOVE TRACE

I THOUGHT THESES PHOTOS WOULD MAKE SOMEONE SMILE. I KNOW HE MAKES ME SMILE. I MEAN, COME ON, JUST LOOK AT THAT FACE AND NOT TO MENTION TO THE BODY!!!!!!!

Jamming

I was listening to the radio on the way to work this morning. I changed the station and an old song came on."IF YOU THINK I'M SEXY", by Rod Stewart. I wan't feeling too well so I turned up the volume and was jamming out during traffic.
It felt nice. Having the radio loud without anyone complaining. LOL.
Then another song came, R-E-S-P-E-C-T. Jammed to that one too.
I looked up in my rear view mirror and the guy behind me was smiling. I didn't think
anything of it. He couldn't been on a handsfree headset, who knows.
But he went to go pass me and slowed down and smiled and waved at me.
Or he was laughing at me. Who knows and who cares?
I tend to sing when in the car alone to songs that I like.
Hey, you gotta fight the boredom of traffic somehow. RIGHT!
I was enjoying myself that is all that counts. But sometimes I do forget
to turn down the volume when I go to get back into the car after work and
it's blasting in the parking garage.
Have a good one.

Just another manic Monday....

That song would describe my day. I woke up feeling achy,sore and stopped up. Went to work and felt even worse. But the day must go on. I wasn't running a fever, I tried to cut up and make the patients laugh. Tried to eat lunch and it just didn't taste good to me. So I dumped out my soup, chicken and rice soup. Drank alot of water and more water.
Then suddenly remembered I needed to call my daughter's neuro doctor and find out why I got a bill for $4,000.00 for a MRI. Spoke with someone and then called the hospital. SINCE IT WAS THERE ERROR. The lady asked me a few questions and then stated,"OH, HERE'S HER INSURANCE INFORMATION. IT WASN'T ATTACHED WITH THE ORDER." I'm thinking to myself; yeah right, whatever. So she took care of it. I asked for her name and wrote it on the bill along with the time. CYA! That is something I have to do at work.
So that was done.
Then had to wait in line at the local WAWA to get gas, due to the fact I didn't get it yesterday. Well, $33.00 later, got a full tank of gas. Gas here is from $3.09-$3.29. Yeah! And they are suppose to go up by next month.
What happened to gas prices at $1.98. Gosh I miss those days. And the price of milk, too. Come on. Do we have a shortage in cows?
Well, ate dinner that my daughter cooked. And have been laying on the sofa sipping hot tea. Hoping to feel better soon.
I've decided there is no perfect place to live where the weather is "normal". Been out west, nope. For petesakes, TX. just got snow. I told BBW that the only place that has "perfect weather" is to be 10 feet under. Hey, you don't have to worry about the weather.
Hopefully more tomorrow. We shall see how I feel......

A RIDDLE

You are driving in a car at a constant speed. On your left side is a 'drop off', (The ground is 18-20 inches below the level you are traveling on), and on your right side is a fire engine traveling at the same speed as you. In front of you is a galloping horse, which is the same size as your car and you cannot overtake it. Behind you is a galloping zebra. Both the horse and zebra are also traveling at the same speed as you. What must you do to safely get out of this highly dangerous situation?

See answer below. I got this in an email.

Get your drunk-ass off the merry-go-round.

Blah Sat.

Woke up to the sounds of birds chirpping outside my window, cause I have to sleep with the cracked. Tried to go back to sleep. Finally rolled over to see the clock and it was "7a.m." Okay so much for sleeping in.
And it was RAINNING---again. GREAT!!!!
So the daughter and I decided to start on some "SPRING CLEANNING". Took us 3 hours and we got a lot done.
After spending an hour declogging the darn vaccum cleaner. I have to do that everytime I use the vaccum.
Then low and behold, is that sunshine. Why yes it was? Wait what happened????
The wind picked up roaring agian and the sun went away. CRAP!!!!
Can I get a nice warm wind free, rain free, weekend off! I guess not, at least not yet.
Wait until summer gets here and then I'll be wishing for cold weather.
And to top it off I'm hearing a song that makes me think of my hubby when he travels.
"HOME" BY MICHEAL BUBLE. But I have the radio on a country station and it's on. No it's not Micheal Buble, it's Blake Shelton. Okay I can live with his voice too. Sounds kinda sexy and seducative. MMMMM!!!!!
And I've got a "kiddie birthday" to go in a few. My best friends oldest daughter is turning "9".
Oh the joys of a house full of little giggly girls and not to mention 2 barking dogs. CRAP!!!
Hopefully they have some alcohol for the adults. Hey my kids weren't like hers. I'll have to explain that later.
Well, I guess I better hit the windy dust trail and go over my friends house.
More tomorrow.....................

Sharing...

I was in complete shock to hear what I heard this morning. One of my favoritve actors has cancer, pancreatic cancer. Patrick Swayze has pancreatic cancer. I was devastated. My mother died from that. But she was dignoased with it early and didn't have a chance to go through chemotherapy.
I work in a Oncology/Hematology office so I see alot of cancer. Alot of different kinds that people don't even think about. I've lost a few patients in the last few months due to the battle they had with cancer.
As my doctor, that I work with says, " CHEMOTHERAPY WON'T CURE THE CANCER, IT'LL HELP IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF LIFE". I honestly believe that.
Now days there is so much more advance techology to check and look for these types of cancers before it's too late.
I see alot of women with breast cancer and men with either colon or prostate cancer. But I'm seeing a lot more of lung cancer, ovarian cancer and rectal cancer. But alot of these people have been coming into our office for years for chemo and have made it. But it gets really hard when it starts to spead. The worse place for it to spread is the bones. And with alot of cancers that is what happens. We call it mestastics, or for short "mets". You then know it's a long hard ride for them.
In my job I have to deal with telling patients and their loved ones, they have cancer. And then most of them get terrified when they learn they need chemo. But I give them information to read about the drugs they will be getting. And when I check on them in the chemo room, that seems to make them feel better.
I honestly believe that everyone CAN BEAT CANCER, given time.
As far as the the Hematology part that I deal with, it's mainly patient with anemia,and sickle cell disease. I've learned alot about those too.
There are times I wish I was in a different practice but seeing those patients that I get to goof off with makes my day.

I just thought I'd share this with you.
Thanks for listening.

this is really funny

PRETENDING TO WORK.....

I'm sitting here at my desk, pretending to work.
Well, I have no more patients for the day and my
doctor is gone for the day too. It's his half day.

Just enjoying the sunshinning outside my window
after a terrible thunderstorm last night. I've needed
to see the sun. It really does bring up your mood and
spirits.
I should be on the phone with an insurance company
getting an authorization for a procedure for a patient but
nope. Being lazy, and I'm getting paid for it. LOL!!!!
I don't normally slack off at work. But I am this afternoon.

I went over to the chemo room and laughed with a few patients
and the nurses. And now the patients are asleep. So see can't bother
them.

Okay well, I'm gonna go do my stair climbing with the girls from
billing.
Take care and talk to ya soon.

NEW JOB???????

Okay! If you didn't know I started a job. Which "officially" I started on Oct. 8Th. Well, 2 weeks prior to that I was training at one of the other offices.
Which I liked that office and soon you will know why.
My first week at my new job, keep in mind I still haven't met the Dr. I was going to be working for. Well, on my first day last Mon., I go to work thinking I was going to meet him. WRONG!!!!!!!! He called and said he wouldn't be in due to him "BREAKING HIS ARM AND HE MAY NEED SURGERY!" So the whole week went by and I didn't get to meet him.
But in the mean time, I worked and trained with another girl.
Let me first say this girl knows what she's doing. She has been with the company for "8 YEARS". Later on in the week I was reminded that ALOT!!!!
Okay I'm gonna try to get along with her because I have been out of this field of work for a while, but it's so hard when someone keeps reminding you of their seniority.
Thank goodness she's taking some time off.
But this past Mon. I did get to meet my doctor. He is a pleasant and nice looking man. Not to mention he's left handed ( so am I ). LOL!!!!
But so far the new job is going so-so. There are times when I DON'T WANT TO GO TO WORK. You see he's still trying to build up his practice.
But I think in the long run it's going to work out.
Me and some of the girls in the back office really hit it off.
But I do hate the drive home.
It takes me, like 2-35 Min's to get to work. BUT TO GET HOME IS ANOTHER STORY??????
I have traffic. The tunnel traffic and then the ones that are "rubber necks."
Like today, there were so many accidents and everyone was looking instead of driving. If it's not on your side of the highway, why hold up traffic????
I don't know. I can't figure out these people in Va. One, they CAN'T DRIVE........
But then again, can anyone????
I will write more later.
But to end my day on a good note.
I got a call from hubby (BBW). He has found his ruby slippers and will be on his way down the yellow brick road on Sat. to come home to me. Also he found Toto.(LOL).
That's what I tell him. He's in KS trying to find Toto.
(sorry honey, it was too funny.)
So he will be home Sat.
And let me tell you, after 2 mths. I can't wait. I've also told my daughter she's to stay the night at a friends house that night.
ADULT NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!
More later???????????????????????????????

Not gone

HOPE EVERYONE HAS A GREAT WEEKEND!!!!!!!!

I finished out my 2 wks. at my job and start my new one on Mon. I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't been on due to working 2 jobs. But as soon as I get the chance I will write something.

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!!
