What Did I Just Think?

I always thought that I have the most unconnected random thoughts but it hit me this morning that I was wrong. This morning I saw lightning and was trying to think of a really cool way to write that down. The first thing to come to mind was, “I see fire and I see rain.” Completely in tune with my in head singing voice. I said to myself, “random.” It wasn’t though, fire and lightning or connected, then I realized no normal person would make that connection. It felt good to know that I’m not crazy.

I had a pretty good day. I drove out to my old job (it only became my old job less than two weeks ago) to pick up my brother, his friend, and to discuss reimbursement for my gas. See they pay me weekly for my gas to drive my brother and other client out to the center. I’m happy to do it because I get a break from my brother. Anyway, I get out there and my ex boss asks me to come talk to him in his office. Since I left, they’ve lost a few clients, one employee had been fired, and another resigned before she could get fired. When I walked into the client areas they just couldn’t wait to tell me all the gossip. My ex boss told me though that I look relaxed and happy.

Lastly for tonight, while having my why me moment yesterday I typed up the last blog post. I very good friend of mine found and sent me some information on a question I asked. I had actually forgotten that some of my friends are on twitter. But to you Felix, I say, thank you for being such a good friend. We don’t talk often but I really value you.

My shoulder is starting to hurt so it is time to bid you adieu for today.

Doctor Visits

So a week ago today I went to see my doctor and have some lab work done. Yesterday my Doctor’s office called and said the doctor needed to see my about my results. I woke up today dreading what the doctor was going to tell me. After a two-hour wait the doctor finally comes in. She tells me that it’s great how I got my blood pressure down. Oh yeah! Bad news, my results indicate that I have arthritis. I mean really, I’m only 38 and why me? Could it have been worse, of course, could it have been better, definitely. My doctor’s first question, does anyone in my family have rheumatoid arthritis? I freak out because my daddy has everything and I don’t want another thing wrong with me. Now I’m waiting for a referral to an endocrinologist. Can somebody tell me exactly what those guys do. I have no idea personally but I’m pretty sure I should find out. Luckily no one in my family has RA. That is one thing that really scares me, I have a friend with RA and I know it’s a hard thing to live with.

So my goal for next week is to not have a single doctor appointment of any kind and to get plenty of rest for all the extra crap I know that I will have to do instead.

Wow, Its been forever!

I have been so busy. I have just been completely exhausted and unable to fulfill my blogging duties. I needed money so I got a job. Yay, right? Nope! I got the job and then didn’t have time to blog or read and it really sucked. The job kept me tired, sick, and busy trying to play catch up with everything that was scheduled in my life.

I did the only bright thing to do. I quit my job, which I’m sure was a great job because my blood pressure was regularly between 160 and 180. So now I’m back to no job but I have time, I feel less tired (face it I have three kids, I’m always going to be a little tired), but most importantly my blood pressure has dropped to between 115-120. Sounds great right? Of course it does, except I’m broke again. So I guess my choices are excess money and one foot in the grave or broke and alive. Darn it I guess I’ll take alive. I do have to go to the doctor and get my lab results tomorrow.

Well at least in the last week I’ve been off I’ve already finished two books and just finished a blog post.
