Another entry...I am so proud of myself. I feel like I am talking to myself since no one visits anymore. I am afraid to tell anyone and let them down again. Overall this week has been good. Tuesday and today I have felt really on top of things. Yesterday was a total bust. Early yesterday morning I read this terrible story about a 10 month old little girl whose parents took her to the doctor for an ear infection. The doctor noticed her stomach was tight and decided to do an x-ray. He found that her liver was enlarged and sent her straight to the hospital. In a very short time her parents found out she had cancer. She went through multiple surgeries and passed away this past Sunday. The part that really hit home with me was how fast everything happened for this family. In a timeframe of about three weeks she went from normal (and they thought healthy) baby, to the hospital, to being with Jesus. I can’t imagine my life changing that drastically in such a short amount of time. I was incredibly upset about this story yesterday that I didn’t get anything accomplished at work. I am in the process of learning some new things to hopefully bring in some work (since things are VERY slow) so it was not a good thing to have nothing to show for the day. Today is much better and one project I have worked on for five years is getting ready to pick up a little bit. So hopefully my job will become more stable and I’ll be able to stick around to finally see (for the first time in my life) three weeks vacation!
And on a fun note, 2 days until Valentines Day! I used to HATE this holiday. Especially during the middle school/high school years. College and there after wasn’t much better. Even when you get married Valentines Day still isn’t all that until you have children. Then it becomes fun again. Valentines for school, bake cookies, fun outfits. It’s great! Who needs flowers and chocolate. Just fun photo ops to make a great scrapbook page or two. Hope everyone has a great weekend!
