Grandpa has been release from the hospital. So he better be home resting. Which I know he is not doing. Hopefully he will doing well & listen to the doctors.

The sunburn that will not stop

It is a week later since my entry about my sunburn I got on July 3rd. Well it is still Pink in the center. I has peeled completely once & in the middle it for a second time. It is now driving me crazy with the constant itching. The areas that tanned really did not tan, it looks like old dark tea color. It is not brown it is yucky brown. That is my indian heritage coming out. No golden tan for me..... Except from a bottle.... At least  I am not the sickly transparent white anymore...

My Family gives me Chest pain

My father's side of the family truely gives me CHEST PAINS. I just got off the the phone with my father. He is at Duke University Hospital were my grandfather just had 6 stints put in, 3 of which was located in his Carotid artery which was 95% blocked. Last year, My grandmother fell walking into a surgery suite to have her cataracts taken care of so she could see better prior to having her knees repaired. Well her fall was bad enough to break her ankle pretty bad requiring surgery & possibly broke a few ribs. She has not been able to get out of a wheelchair since this happened. Well this is going to be extremely interesting. After this he is not going to be able to push her around, up & down the ramp & put her chair into the van. And let me get started on their middle children. Edwin- useless redneck who does nothing to help his mother or father out with ANYTHING. He just sits around the house living off them, hunting, working on cars & watches them raise (which they have done his whole life-20 years now) his free-loading redneck son. When I was up there in December their house was a disgrace. There was barely enough room to walk around. There was no place to sit anything down on the kitchen cabinets. There was a Tool box still sitting in the living room from 2 christmas's ago. I don't know how they could think this is NORMAL TO LIVE IN THIS!!!! Evelyn- she does nothing but eat & breathe. She has never done anything with her life but raise her 3 children (1 normal, 1 semi-normal & 1 really messed up) & spouge off my grandparents & spend their life savings. A few years ago she was place in the hospital after she had a heart attack secondary to her high blood sugar level. They had declaired her brain dead, they did not realize there was not too much activity up there to start with. She has been on disablity ever since, just an excuse to not get a real job & do real work. I do not know how these 2 adults who either live in or close by could not help clean up this household???? My father (The oldest) & my uncle Bobby (the youngest) live to far away & have stable jobs, but have helped with the house repairs & clean up. Where to middle 2 born with a gene that prevents them from using the brain god gave them?????????? More chest pains & now a headache to add to it !!!!!!!!

A little burnt..

It was a warm July day here. The normal threat of rain off & on today. However I did somehow find an hours worth of sun to get myself a little sun burnt. I caught about 2 hours in the sun between the black clouds. My back has a good pink glow & a nice tingle. I usually do not like to lay out in the sun but it is a pain in the tush listening to family member pick on me becuase I live in Florida & have no tan. Well DUH, I do work daily, in doors. Oh well...

The men issue: I have a friend how I dated in Junior High school. He is in the process of getting a divorce. I love him as a friend but that is about as far as I want to take it. He keeps pressuring to go on dates, to the movies & other places. I want to be friends but that is about it. He has it set in his head that he wants a relationship more then friends. Like tonight he wants to come over & work on the jet ski. But he did not call until 8:30pm & he said I have to take a shower & get something to eat. It is now 10:15pm just a little late to start up the jet ski's motor. It has not been started since September. It needs a little more then gas to start it up. We will see. I am going to turn the lights off in a little while because it is getting a little too late. My neighbors will have a cow if we work on it this late. Men & time.. They just don't get it......

Tobey

Well I am proud to write that Tobey has returned home to him mommy. He was spotted wondering out by the lake at Wickham park. He is now happy to see his mommy is alive & recovering.

Tobey's Missing

Well there has been a lot going on in the neighborhood. Last night just after I left to watch Dr. Segina's baby boys, One of my neighbors was walking her dog Tobey when she was hit by a drunkin cocaine using fool. Shelley is currently at home with 3 broken bones in her left ankle, road rash on her elbow & right knee & staples in her head. He biggest heart ache is that her little Tobey took off because he was scared & hurt. We think Tobey is hiding in a densely wooded 400 acre park. Mom contacted a pet psychic to locate Tobey. She said his back end hurts but it is not life threating. He is extremely worried about his mommy & is afraid she is very badly hurt. Tobey has been missing for about 28 hours now. Tobey's Aunt & my mom spent this morning looking for him in the park. When I got home from work we went to the park & looked over the park for him with no luck. Tobey's Aunt was going over also looking for him tonight. His mommy is very worried about him & his health.

Lord please help Elizabeth contact Tobey & talk him into showing his hiding place so we can take him to his mommy & to get him the help he needs. He is a sweet little puppy & his mommy really needs him home. Please do not take him or let him get hurt anymore. Please let him be found alive soon. Thank You...

The twin experiance

This evening I helped one of the Doctors I work for enjoy an evening with her husband. I watched their 2 adorable 15 month old twin boys, Gino & Dominic. They are the sweetest little things. The perfect end to a rough day.

A work VENT!!!!

Work... My co-workers are totally frustrating. We have Maria, who wants the title but does not do the work. She constant say they she is busy but you never see it. You walk into the room & she is constantly on her cell phone. She constantly complains that it is unjust that we have to work a total of so many hours a week to build time off & if we average below that for a quarter we lose our ablitiy to bank vacation hours. Well I hate to break it to that if you take a long weekend every three months plus come in late, leave early & take extra long lunches everyday you are never going to meet the average. It is just not possible. I & everyone eles gets tired of you pawning off stuff on us. Like today I sat up the rooms, you strolled in late, I broke down the rooms & wash the instruments, you talked on your cell phone & left early. It was 6pm when I left. Manager DJ vent.. When you see that your employees are behind, jump in & help a little more, not run back to your office. Then to act dumb when we page you repeatively for help. Don't tell someone that this whole switch on one thing while you tell other something different & follow through on nothing. If your employee needs to do something don't get mad & ignore them, that is not real mature. I feel like some of the management choices could have been made differently. It's a job, It pays the bills, gotta do it for a little while longer. Come on Lotto Number...... Give me some winners please......

Weekend report

Well, not too much going on around here. Went over to Orlando to see my step-brother & his family on Friday after work. We played at the resort's pool for about an hour & half. Got a little pink in the face but nothing else. We went to dinner at Tony Roma's. It was a very good meal. Then we went to play Put-put golf. We were dong well until the storm moved in. The lightening was fierce & the rain extremely heavy.We sat around watching it rain for about an hour. It finally lightened up a little so we could get to the car. The ride home from Orlando was beutiful also. The way the the lightening crawled across the sky and in & out of the clouds. It was like a beautiful white natural firework show. Very breathe taking & relaxing.

The retirement party was very nice. Lots of high carbohyrate foods. The food was great. It seemed like everyone was having a good time. People were learning how to swing dance. Dr. Wagaman is a pretty good dance. Dr. Inserillo is an extremely talented dancer. Lynn & her husband were having a blast cutting a rug.

Update

Well, I gues it is time for an update since I have been extremely lazy. Well the truth is I have been very busy. I have lost a total of 13 pounds & 23 inches since I have started on the Inches-A-Weigh program. I am in about a size 10-12 from a 18. Yeah, that just means there will be less of me to attend the class reunion in August.

On May 27th, I had a bone spur removed from my left shoulder. Which means they have been working to get my shoulder back into shape & strong again. It is a good time to do it because it was starting to get difficult to hold even a newborn for any length of time. It is healing very nicely. Dr. Woodward did an awesome job in the surgery department. I must think Julie, Linda & Dennis for ever thing they have been in the rehabilitation department.

In the guy department, Same stuff different year. The single ones do not want to commit to a relationship. The married ones only want to run around on their wives. Why can they not get it through there head that I do not mess with married men. If you wanted me then why did you not make a move then???? your loss..

Other then that I have not been up to much. Just going to the circus I call a job. It is changes & more changes. People leaving, new positions being created & the normal Drama. That is another nights entry.
