Been there, done that!!! I was VERY lucky that I NEVER had a hot flash!!! My daughter had to have a hysterectomy in her 20s when she had stroke as she was delivering my first grandchild. You WILL survive!!!
Your excitement is so contagious!!!
Hello Christmas family! I've been missing for a while and I've tried to scroll through and see what's been up, but I have just been so busy lately! I did see that DAWG finally has a son - congrats to you and I hope everything is going well! Also glad to see another Penn State fan in jennifer! Yay for that!
DF and I have not even tried to take down our Christmas stuff yet! We have just been really busy, but he says we're doing it this weekend. It always makes me sad to put everything away, but it will be nice to have some space back in our house.
My last day at Hallmark was last week and while I'm sad to lose the discount (lol), I've been way less stressed since then. I think it'll really hit me in July when all the Christmas stuff will come in how much I miss my job. But at least I have some good friends that still work there that can help me cope with the "loss", haha.
I went to a bridal expo on Sunday and had a great time! We went there looking for photography, a photo booth, entertainment, and flowers. I ended up finding very good and very inexpensive entertainment and a photo booth, which just made my day! I also won free wedding photography on the day of my wedding (plus an engagement shoot, holy cow!) by entering a drawing and I am BEYOND excited! DF and I are meeting with her next Friday to hammer out the details and see her work, but this is going to save us SO MUCH MONEY! =D =D I really didn't think I would win anything, even though my bridesmaids signed me up for EVERYTHING there, so it was a great surprise! I'm hoping I can still win some other stuff because I don't think all the vendors have picked their winners yet, lol.
This week, I need to make more calls for vendor set-up appointments (we are going for food tasting next week, and booking a meeting with the entertainment and photo booth people from the expo) and finish the laundry that has now become a mountain! I'm really excited for next Saturday, as DF, our best friends, and I are going to the King of Prussia mall near Philly. Square foot-wise, it's the largest mall in America and second in amount of stores only to the Mall of America. We haven't been there in almost 2 years, so I am over the moon about going! Of course, in the midst of all that, our Christmas tree and decorations will come down, so I will need all the excitement and good news I can get!
Hope everyone is doing well, and I hope to be around more now that I'm back down to one job again. Also wanna shout out and say GOOOOOO GIANTS this weekend!
My computer is FULL of teacher stuff. I can email a few files at a time, if you like!!!
I did thanks! I found some teacher websites to bookmark for the future and got some reading in
PLEASE, I CANNOT laugh anymore!!! It hurts!!!
These guys showed up at the Pines wanting Carl to join their little circus...thought they could bribe him with this cute reindeer.
Carl was tempted until they made the mistake of telling him that camels do not drink coffee or eat fired twinkies! Those guys can sure make a circus trailer move fast, must of been the angry camel trying to run them down!!
Update: I am SO SORE!!! After the biopsies (which took a little longer than expected), I had to have another mammogram!!! Talk about pain!!! Then I started bleeding again. So they hurried and took me back into the "surgery" room to stop the bleeding with, can you guess??? Super glue!!! You cannot imagine how much THAT hurts when it starts to dry and crackle!!! I will be sore for a few days and I should know something by Friday. My doctor is so good about that!!! I do have to tell you that I have had SUCH PEACE about everything, except the pain, of course!!! And I won't do the hand jive or charades for a long time!!! From the bottom of my heart: Thank you all for your prayers and kind thoughts!!!
Looks like I missed one heck of a party at the Pines!!! Just another reason I want to get on first shift at work.
