No Post No Cry

I haven't been posting here very much is because I have finally got into a good grief group on the Internet and that site has a journal have been posting there and posting on other people's journals that I have just been posted out. My MRI showed no growth so that means they will do another one in about 18 months time,so that was very good news. Just wait and see.....

I joined classmates for three months only just to get this one girl to email me that I use to work with, also graduated from High School with but we never really hung out in School. The site will not let you give out your email so you have to type it in a way that the computer can't pick it up as a address, and it worked she emailed. I had been thinking a lot lately of her and her mother. We all use to work in the doctor's office back in Kentucky many moons ago and just kind of lost touch with one another after I quit. Well I would see one or the other by a chance meeting while shopping or something like that.....Anyway her mom passed away in 2004 of brain cancer and her cousin(which was also in our graduation class) died a year earlier of colon cancer. Even though it was nice to hear from her I felt so bad for the grief she must be going through. She was really close to her mom they went every where together. But I am glad we are back in contact with one another. It was the best 15.00 I have ever spent...I have lost 7 lbs already, still doing the walking weather permitting. I am not going to starve myself and I do have a sweet every now and then. So I was really surprised when I got on the scales and lost that much weight. Well Its been over a month and still on the diet cokes, I think the diet coke have made my taste buds numb. LOL

The birds are finally out of the house now just need to clean up that room a bit and Move Molly the dog in that room so we can have our bathroom back. Trying to build anything outside this summer is a pain in the ass. You start to do something it rains then when you go inside the sun come out, after a few times of this you just give up and play computer games...LOL Playing yo yo with the weather is not my idea of fun....

Peter lost his job because they were downsizing at the hotel where he was working, which is going to a set back for us, how big of a set back depends on how quickly he gets another job. So we will cross our fingers and hope he gets a job real soon.

I am still taking care of ungrateful patients.....Not all of them mind you, but we do have a few that I just don't want to even go into their room to take care of them. About two weeks ago we had this big man that kept falling on the floor, well he didn't really fall because as big as he was we would of hear a boom no matter where was, then start yelling. He knew how to use the call bell because the day nurses said he kept them running to his room all day. He did my back in, and my back was getting so much better on night shift. Because when we went to pick him up he just acted completely helpless....Thank God he went home because if he was on the floor again I was going to get a pillow and cover and let him sleep there because I couldn't lift him anymore with my back hurting the way is was, now I am back on pain pills and using my back support again every time I work. I do have compassion but when it comes to people like him, I am not going to be cripple for the rest of my life because he can't behave like a human being. With that being said I will close for now and get back to my computer games looks like rain.
