I Once Was Lost, But Now Am Found....

Hello everyone. Once again, I disappeared from Blogland. I apologize ... I worked the rest of the week last week and then stayed busy over the weekend. On Friday night, I got home and was tired... we ate dinner and Hubby and I played computer games til time for bed and then on Saturday night, Jessica, Jason and Munchkin came to visit. And then, as Sister said, I took a hot bath and got into some jammies and read my Sunday school lesson. Sister... you knew it was Saturday! he he he.... ;-) ... And then I went to bed.

On Sunday, I went to church and then we had to go to the hospital. One of our church members is also a very dear friend... like a Dad, really... he had a horrible headache and had to go to the emergency room. A cat scan was clear and he had an MRI Tuesday night but hasn't got the results back yet.... He did go home on Sunday evening but I got a call from Diane a bit earlier tonight and he has had to go back to the emergency room. So, I will call shortly and see if I can find out anything.. He has Lupus and it could be migraines related to that... I hope and pray that it is something that can be dealt with with medication.... I ask that you all pray for him and I thank you for your prayers....

On Monday, my Hubby had taken off work and we went to eat and to the mall. We had company..... Sue, Diane and Lamar.... and Jessica and Munchkin went with us, too. We ate at Ryan's and went to run around a bit at the mall.... we had a good day and then we (me, Diane and Sue) had a meeting at church... we had our ladies meeting. We had dinner.... hot dogs, chili, chips and goodies.... brownie bites, carrot cake bites, and pecan pie bites... it was good. We had time to draw for our new secret sisters and then do a few business items and then one of the ladies husbands called and told us it was sleeting, so we all got ready to leave... Martha lives about 25 minutes away from here so she had to take Diane home and get home. We didn't have any accumulation so it was ok the next morning.

On Tuesday, my Hubby wanted to go out again so we got ready and called Sue and Diane. Sue went with us but Diane was resting and decided to stay home. We called Jessica and she wanted to go with us. (Actually, Jessica called us and she could barely talk but she didn't really feel bad so she and Munchkin went with us.) I was hungry and we were trying to decide where to go.. we finally decided on Shogun's ... it was SO good.. Emmy thought the fire was very interesting! lol.. I think we all got the same thing... steak and chicken... and, of course, we got the rice and veggies. I got fried oysters and shared them with Sue. After lunch, we went to a few consignment shops. We got Munch a few outfits and just looked around.. then we went to Jessica and Jason's and stayed for a while and then came home. I had to get my stuff ready for work and by the time I got my clothes ready and took my bath, I was tired. And I didn't do much after that.... And, as usual, I had to work and then had church last night.

So now we are here. Thursday. Work was very busy and I am tired but wanted to come on say hello to everyone and see if you are all doing ok. We had a rough week last week. One of my bosses cats ... died at work... our surgery tech and I tried to save her but she died within just a few minutes... she was 15 years and 8 months old and we were so upset.. but we took an x-ray and she had a lot of fluid around her heart and had been having thyroid problems for a long time... so last week, was also very sad for me.... We had a hard time last week... So, I didn't come on much last week... just had too much going on...

I will be working tomorrow... if I can... one of the girls I work with came to work sick yesterday and I think she has shared with a few of us.... one of the other girls is getting sick and I have been coughing all afternoon... I hope I don't get sick again.... sigh... Diane is having problems again, too. Her cold/ sinus trouble had not really gone away and she is still sick. Good grief... I will be glad when all this sickness is gone. You would think our weather would kill it... it is 19 degrees right now!! But hopefully, we'll all be well soon...

I will work on Saturday then I have a lunch date with a friend and we're going to work on a Valentine's project for church, so I'll be busy this weekend. I'll try to catch up with everyone though!

Well, now that I've written a book, I guess I'll go for now. Hope you have a good Friday and that everyone is doing ok. Hugs to all...... Cecil

I hope you don't get sick, Sis. I'm about the same. I'm gun shy about saying I may be a little better. Every time I say that I get sicker again. Ugh!

I hope Jim is okay. I haven't heard anything at all since I called you.

See you Sun. if not before, Lord wiling....

Love,

Joe

Good Morning Cecil,
Burrrr, it is bitterly cold this morning. It is 19 degrees with a windchill of 6 degrees. According to the radar on my Sidebar, it is showing some Snow. I would love to just have a dusting of Snow. We didn't get any sleet here the other night. We just got the rain. Now it could have sleeted some in the wee hours, but if it did, it was melted the next morning. I will keep your friend in my prayers. I do hope they can find out what is wrong with him. I will keep Diane and all of you in my prayers as well. I sure do wish that Sinus crud goes away soon. It just wants to hang around all the time. I sure hope you don't get sick either. It sounds like yall have been busy. At least you were with Family and enjoying each other. A couple of weeks ago when our girls was at a Birthday Party at the Bowling Alley, I seen that Shogun's. I would like to go there sometime. I don't know what kind of food they serve tho. But from what yall had, it does sound good. I hate that your Boss' cat died. But at least it's not having to suffer any more tho. Well, take care my friend and have a great day. May God Bless You and Yours.

Love & Hugs,
Karen H.
