Slow, Slow, Slower

I bought one of those Nintendo lite DS after Christmas. Like I am not already addicted to computer games I have to get more game equipment. LOL Anyway got it off ebay and came with oer 400 games. I believe I have all the brain games up to date. So far my brain age is 56 and rated a C, seems I can't any higher than that at this time. The first time I played my brain age was 80(which 20 is the goal to get to) and my grade was a D- so I have came up, but it is a slow process and keeps getting slower as I play the games.

Speaking of brains.... A girl I work with named Anna she came to work here from Poland about 6 months ago. She had been getting headaches for the last 2 months. She had went to the doctor and they passed it off as migraine headaches and gave her medication which seem to take care of the pain until last week. She went to the hospital and they found out she had a brain tumor did surgery now she is hooked up to live support machines and they are waiting for her daughter to come in from Poland to unplug the life support. She is only 36 years old. We are all gutted about all of this. I don't know all the details of why in the world they didn't get a scan of the brain in the first place or why after brain surgery she is dying. It is so sad. Her daughter wanted to stay behind in Poland to finish up school before joining her parents in Ireland. That is as much as I could get from Anna because she didn't speak very good English. She was a very good worker and will be missed. I just feel very bad for the family and hope they will get through this ordeal with their spirit intact. I know how life can be with someone you love to die. Carrying on day to day living sometimes can be a big challenge. I just pray for that family that they will have peace in their minds.....

Time is passing so fast


Yes all the sudden I realized I haven't posted here for awhile, but didn't notice that it's been since the last of December. Now it's almost the last of January. WOW, I have been working night shifts for the last three weeks so I guess it kind of took me by suprise.LOL I begin on day shift this week so maybe things will go slower for me.


Looking forward to getting a visit from one of Peter's daughter that has moved to America pretty much the same time as I moved to Ireland. She hasn't been back to visit since she left, we did get to see her when we was back for my daughter's funeral about 2 years ago but she has had a baby since and we have never got to meet her husband. Will be very nice to see them all so looking forward to their visit. She will be here last of January and the first part of February. She said she would call when it got closer to the time to let us know when she was coming to our house, because she has more people to visit besides us.


We have our Jewelry on the Internet as of last of December, Looking forward to getting some customers. Our last time we went out to sell was in December and it was a big success. Not too much has happen since I last posted, but thought I better type something. LOL Just to keep this going.


It's raining here and has been for 2 weeks now. You get so tired of the rain all the time. I think it kind of makes you depressed when it rains so much, but on the good side it has warmed up a bit because of the rain. So you have to take the good with the bad. My dog Molly is sleeping on the couch as I am typing this, she is such a good dog and I love her don't know what I would do without her now that she is part of the family. I still haven't got any electric shears to cut her hair. I am afraid I will really mess her up bad if I get a hold of anything electric around her being just regular shears in my hand is dangerous. LOL But will get around to doing something one of these days.


I am waiting for my brother to send me some pics of my daughter and grand daughter so will post them here when I get them for him. So this is Breanna two years ago.
