Christmas Countdown - 2015

whitney37354 · Oct 6, 2015

I finally got the Halloween decor out & up last night. I only have two Thanksgiving things, so they are up too! DD & I found a Christmas ornament for her at Wal-Mart on Saturday, one of her Monster High characters! SIL & I had lunch with MIL yesterday & she told us that she wanted an electric blanket for Christmas/birthday combo (birthday is January 12). I ordered it yesterday, in her favorite color, purple. Glad to have another gift purchased!

That makes going to work very hard!! My boss can make me crazy sometimes, but he is a nice guy. Now boss #2 can be just flat out rude - but I've known him pretty much all my life, so I pretty much know how to take him & when to just not talk to him~ let him alone... LOL - by Friday he's nice as can be! Talk, talk, talk... (and they say women are moody...HA!)

Well isn't everyone nicer on Fridays?

The sun out this week sure beats the gloomy clouds we had all last week. People at work even seem in a better mood.

Sunshine (almost) always improves my mood!

Oh boy, just looked up at the clock, getting out of here in about a half hour. heading home to pick up the truck, take it to the scrap yard to get rid of 2 refrigerators and 1 freezer. Then head back home, take the van to the dealership to drop it off to get it repaired from that accident I was in 2 weeks ago and then walk up the street to the Hertz place and get a rental. Then go home, load up the truck for another run to the scrap yard tomorrow....Then get into my normal routine of things....

Looks like Tuesday followed Monday's tracks and moved fairly quickly at work. Look forward to going home here very shortly. I believe there's a major milestone on hump day...so bring it on.

Thank you for the prayers, CAH~ They mean a lot!
He is doing okay, I wouldn't say great, but things overall have not gotten worse, either.
He still has trouble getting around, and is having more problems with his legs.
The confusion/memory issues are still present, but again grateful they have not progressed any further. He has been very positive, which is half the battle.
Thanks again for thinking of us.

How is your Dad?

Thanks for the update and glad things have not gotten worse. I will be praying for improvement!!!

My dad's energy is well. My mom, dad and I took a walk at the Arboretum this morning and he was walking all over without any issues or fatigue. I was happy to see him doing so well. He will always have his health condition but at least he is doing well. Thanks for asking about him!
