OK, I am worse than...
Connie and Michelle with keeping this updated lately. I will work on it when I get home.
Florida. Green and flat. Got up today and went biking. We went up "hills" near Jason's parent's home. Well at least I did see a bump or two on the trail. Nice ride though. Then we did about 2 hours of trail hiking this time there was actually hiking involved. the do have some neat assed sink hole parks here. Got to see Florida's version of big tree's. Even took a picture of it. Yeah, there is only one. Then I went swimming to cool off. If the heat doesn't kill you the humidity will. I feel like I am in a sauna all the time.
I found Connie's mom's twin. She live's in Florida and say's she's Jason's mom. Really neat lady although I haven't shared my "Kinky Toy's" book with her yet. :)! We did bond over recipe's and wine though.
Well, it's late and I am pooped. Going to crash now for an hour or two. Have fun ya all!

I had a minute so...
I figured if I didn't update this blog someone might accuse me of following in Michelle's or Connie's footstep's :). I have an arm. It works quite well too. It's a little wimpy but I figured it had never really been strong so I don't seem to be missing much. I have got complet range of motion back which is excellent. Anne is working on the strengthening bit. Before to long I will be all muscle (right :-P). I will be going back to work on Sunday. I get to pick when I go in for the next week because I don't have a set schedule. They forgot to submit all the paperwork to H.R. So next week will be nice and easy going. I have to start out on 6 hour day's just to make sure the typing doesn't cause me too much stress on my shoulder. Whatever. I will be moving to an early morning shift, 5:30am, the following week. We are now closed after midnight so my original shift is gone. My team was split up among others so I will get a whole new team in 2 weeks. Just in time for me to goto Florida. I think I need to talk to someone about that brilliant idea. I am thinking it would be better to just shuffle papers for the next two weeks then get my team when I get back. The same number of employee's will still be there so I will still be able to take them on when I get back, and for now they won't have to panic because they can't get a hold of thier supervisor because she's 1400 miles away. I will have to chat with Amy on that one. As a side note, did I ever tell you my boss has incredible legs. Well she does. I got a real good look at them yesterday. NICE!
Today has been fairly productive. I turned into "Jiffy Lube", as Connie would say. Changed oil and filters in 3 vehicle's. I would have done the lube also but dad was out of grease and I was to tired to run to AutoZone one more time. My car is running much happier now. I also finally got around to burning the guck out of the engine. No more knock. If I would just change out the roter's and fix the bent strut I would finally have everything done. Well, except for replacing Abbie's teething episodes, but I have to goto a juck yard to find those parts.
I am now going to shower and change. Wayne and Jeannie have invited me to BBQ and fix thier computer, oh and get sloppy assed drunk (that's a given when you are with Wayne). Soo, I am off to do that. Maybe I will network my house tonight too. I need to get that done soon. I am getting tired of my Aunt using my computer because her's is slow. It's not my bloddy fault she own's a POS I offered to help upgrade it several times over the past few year's. I digress.
Have a good weekend all and hope to catch you all later.

Ahhhh
I am home. I missed my computer. I am truly becoming that geek that I never wanted to be. I can't imagine not having access to a computer at all. I thought I was going to die when I had to deal with a dial-up connection. There is no hope for me. I have become a product of society. Dependent upon technology. *SIGH* Oh well. I may as well enjoy it.
I got to have my boy over the weekend. His grandmother took him home and left him because she was tired of having to entertain him. I have never had to "entertain" Cameron at all. The kid is 10 for hell sakes. He can entertain himself. So we went up and saw his Mom and Abigail then can home and made turkey and cheese quesadilla's and played Pokemon while watching Iron Chef. Oooo, now doesn't that sound like a whole lot of work. Tomorrow is his first baseball practice of the season. He made the team of the older boy's (I have no idea what they call them now a day's), so he's pretty excited. He will be the team's pitcher. That kid has a pretty mean arm on him. I took him to the dog park with me a couple of month's ago and watched him throw the ball just as far as most of the men that were there. One of the guy's actually had a contest with him to see who could throw the farthest. Cameron almost beat him. All I could think was "that's my boy!!" You know if I have half as much fun with his sister as I do with him I might just stay young after all. Maybe I will be able to forego the whole idea of having my own kids.

Mom and Daughter are doing well
Both are adorable. I will get things thrown together and get the pics posted this weekend.
I can rasie my hand now. Not real high but I can lift it. I am driving myself about too. The doctor didn't release me to driving but he didn't exactly tell me I couldn't drive sooo... I didn't know I had to get permission to drive. Anne pointed out to me I might want to get permission. Well can't get a hold of the Doctor until next week and I wouldn't want to waste his time anyway.
Lorene, sorry about the puppy. I wish that you didn't have to go through that.
I will keep you all posted about the going ons of Mother and Baby. Take care of yourselves and those around you. You never know when or where they will need you most or you may need them.

I think these are off...
I know that I hate shoes far too much for these to be anywhere near correct. I think Lorene and I may have had our answers mixed up.

Time to do something.
Anything would be good. I am starting to go stir crazy. My family took me to see "Phantom" at the Pioneer Theater yesterday. I enjoyed the play. The trip up to the the play house was even more interesting. I recommend riding the train for a few hour if you are looking for some good entertainment. We had the preppy homeless gal who ranted about Social Security. The drunk tumbler, who thought my dad was the saftey net. I believe my favorite was the Book of Mormon chanter. The singing of the verses while swaying back and forth just couldn't be topped. For all you people watchers...take the train.

Coma or pain?
What would you choose? I can either be in pain and remain conscious or take a couple of Loratab and be out cold for the entire day. Loratab never used to affect me this way. Maybe old age really is creeping up on me. At least I got my hair washed today. Had to go to see Tiffany and have her wash it but I have a clean head now. I really hate dirty hair. Makes my whole body feel dirty.
Tomorrow I think I will go to Border's and find me a book or two to cram some reading in before I get back to work. My parents have been good to me. I have certainly been able to get lot's of rest. I kind wish they would make me get up and get moving though. It would have been nice to go get the books today. Oh well. C'est la vive.

FUCK!
Stupid assed laptop! So I was telling you all about the surgery when it deciced to go back a page and delete everything I typed.
So the shoulder feels like new. The surgery went an hour or so over because my arm was out of joint, literally. I had a bunch of calcium built up in the socket area so he had to scrape that all out. Shaved off the hook on one of the bones. Took out part of my clavical bone and all the arthritisis that went with it. Oh, and he got rid of all the scare tissue that had built up over the years. Like I said, new shoulder.
Connie came to the hospital last night after she got off work and stayed with me and my drugged up ass until around 8:00pm. She also brought me up ballons and a pretty plant. It was nice to have the her there. I was actually able to doze in and out and get a little rest. I spent the majority of the night watching bad 80's kickboxing movies.
I do not recommend staying at Alta View Hospital overnight unless you can convince the one and only good Nurse I had, Robert, to be there the entire time. The staff sucked bad. I had to beep the charge desk several times before they figured out that you don't just turn the patient's nurse light off without asking if they may actually need something. Then I had to yell to get my night med's for my asthma because the damn nurse couldn't read in my chart that I might want to continue breathing through the night. Not to mention the fact that he didn't hook my IV bag up properly so while it watered the floor I got straight morpine for 3 hours with out the lactated ringer to buffer it. That tends to be a bit hard on the kidney's from what I was told.
Anyway, enough of that or else I might get pissed off again. I am staying at my parents for the next few day's. Mom seems to have a need to take care of me, so I'll let her. I will be back to work probably by the end of next week or the beginning of the following. He say's it depends on how I respond to physical therapy (hehehehehe, oh I'll respond alrighty).
Well I'm going to catch a few moments of sleep now. Getting kinda droopy and my arm is wanting the ice now. Thanks for all your well wishes and love. Dispite how I many or may not come across, I do enjoy knowing that I'm loved.
You all have a good night now ya hear!

Ok now I know Blogger is working.
So tonight sucks. That is what I blogged earlier but in not so nice terms. It has to get better though, right?
Well the birthday is done and over with for the most part. I know that I am getting to be old and tired of the birthday thing. My sister and parents took me to dinner at IGGY's last night and the wait staff sang to me and all I could muster is a little congenial grin for them. No more of the embarassing, red hot face. Of course I think I may have grown out of that when I sat down with Connie's mom to read a kinky sex toy book. That's enough to take embarassment out of everything for anyone. I have to admit that the best gift I got this year came from my nephew. Now you all have to understand that this is a two year old trying to get his favorite Aunt the perfect gift. What he thought would be great was promptly shot down by Grandma and the other aunt. They both seem to think that I would not have appreciated Barney very much. I think it would have been great. He picked it after all. But no he had to go back to the process of picking me the perfect DVD. After much deliberation and thought he reached up, grab the DVD, and shoved it into my mother's hand stating,"This Gracie present!!" I got Ghandi. Very good movie. A bit long, but a very good movie nonetheless. I recommend it to anyone. Especially if you can get it from a two year old. I really am beginning to think that boy is around just to take care of me. I love seeing him and spending time with him. He always manages to make me smile somehow. Oh and you all should see him play with Abbie. Those two are so cute together.
Anyways...So I am thinking of dozing off for a minute or two here. I love coming back from lunch/dinner. The phone goes dead and I can just slow down for the night.

I can't believe how true this one is. This is Connie and Cassanrda. I almost busted a gut laughing at this.

I am going back to my earlier question...why aren't psycic's psycic?
Your success right now could depend on knowing when to move forward and when to remain still. You may have a tendency to be somewhat careless and take things for granted today. But if you're not careful, you could very easily lose your footing. So just try to be very aware of every move you make right now.

What a night!
So I got here at 4:00pm plugged in my phone and took one call after another until 8:45pm. No break. I actually unplugged the phone halfway through somone's goodbye so I could take a break, after wich I promptly took my lunch. Nice of me huh. So now that I'm back Everyone from Mass. have gone to bed and the calls have dropped off. So now I get the pleasure of listening to recorded calls to see just how many of my people got as frustrated as I felt during that little phone jam. You know it wouldn't be so bad if all I had to do was listen. But no, I get to take calls too. I realize it helps me learn more but man, I really don't like not being able to take a breath between calls.
