Monday

I have not really accomplished anything today. Not that I had any real plans, anyway. Just surfed the net and roamed around the house. It's been nice. Waiting on time to pick up the kids. Then things will get lively :)
I really enjoyed church yesterday. That's the first time I've been able to say that in a while. It was nice.
Just got off the phone with Greg. He was at the doctor's office and things are going well for him. Shedding the pounds and his blood sugars are good. I'm proud of him for being able to follow such a strict diet these days. He has way more will power than I do!
Only scheduled to work Wednesday and Thursday this week. Was supposed to work tomorrow but had to cancel because of going to the dr. I'm a little anxious about this appointment. I hope it goes well.
Don't know much of anything else. Guess that's all folks!

Been a while

It's been a while since I've posted. I need to do better!! There's been a lot happened since my last post. On the job front, I've gone back to work part time at the nursing home (Prescott Manor) working evenings (3-11). I love it!!! It's much more calm, more laid back, and I'm not working full time. I have more time to get things done and when I'm with my residents I have more quality time with them. It's great!! This is perfect for me right now. I've found out I have some problems with my heart. I've had lots of tests done now and got my 24 hour heart monitor off yesterday. I'm going to see a cardiologist in Texarkana next Tuesday to find out what they want to do next. Started on medication but it's not quite working. Found out that I have a problem with one of my heart valves, but not sure yet how severe it might be. We'll see what he says on Tuesday.
The girls are gone to Vertical Fest with the youth group today. They've been excited about it. Hopefully they'll get to see some good bands. We went to a concert for the Christian group "Downhere" last weekend. I had never heard of them before that, but now I'm a huge fan!! The concert was great, and we got to meet the band afterwards. They were very, very nice! I had a sunburn that day because I had been with the youth group at the festival uptown all day and my neck burned. The band's base guitar player came over to touch my neck and was like "Wow! A burn in October???" Jessica thought that was hilarious that he was so interested in my sunburn. And yeah, I felt like a big dork!! But really they were great. You can go to their website downhere.com and listen to their music.
Greg and I are just hanging at the house today. I'm on the computer (of course you knew that) and he's watching a movie, I think. I'm going to work at 3, so I think he's almost giddy at the thought of having the house all to himself for 8 hours!!!
How bout those Wolves?? They're doing great this year. Makes me so proud! And Jess is loving being with the band at the games. Last night they were on the track in front of the stands waiting for the band to go on, and Jess was mouthing to me "Are Dave and Shan here?" She was more interested in knowing that than worrying about getting the band equipment on the field!!
I guess that's all I know for now. Hopefully I'll do better at updating!
