to try again

Okay so the diet/exercize drill has been a failure up to this point. Between working 55 hours a week and driving close to a thousand miles a week... where is there time? The one thing it leaves time for is a lot of fast food and a lot of soda. Both very much anti weight loss help.

Throw into it the stress of my daughter, her insurance issues, her ssi issues, my dad's health, my being exhausted, my not being thrilled at work, driving too much, etc... that's a lot of stress...

Again... not helpful to weight loss......

My dad....

Lately there is just too much drama in my life...
Between Holly, Insurance Companies, SSI, My job, mom's stroke... (mostly short term memory problems) residual symptoms that come and go, I could do without anymore drama...

But last week on Monday.... My dad went to the dr for a cold. When he got there the PA listenend to his chest. Then a nurse listened to his chest. Then the doctor listened to his chest. Then they did an EKG. Finally he was sent to the ER where he spent the next day and a half.

Well, he went to the ER with a really bad EKG. He got there and everything looked fine, except his blood sugar. So being as he is a diabetic they decided to keep him over night and run tests. Those test all came back fine....again except his blood sugar... so he did his stress test and that was okay as well. But then they did the nuclear x-rays about 2 hours later. He has a blockage. He has to have angioplasty in the very near future... They are hoping that will do the trick otherwise he might need a bypass operation.

You know, there are times I just wish I had a drama free life.... sighs...

Mother's day....

I thought I was funny. Holly thought I was a riot. I sent her a mother's day card.... it said...

Happy Mother's Day from the dog.

This year I decided to make your present myself,

when you opened the card it said

it's out on the lawn!!!

I signed it Sammy and Max

She on the otherhand sent me a Sponge Bob Mother's Day card.

E-bay

I am trying something fun. I am making mystery boxes out of my kitchen and placing them on E-bay. You can bid on them at http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5580351686 if you so desire. My first attempt is from my kitchen.... hence the title... cleaning out the kitchen mystery boxes.

I just hope the dogs don't drag anything good into the kitchen.

BTW... Matthew, thank you for the b-lated birthday present. I loved it!!!
