Murder

Yesterday Greg was reading the local section of the paper, when I grabbed it from him in total disbelief. I saw a picture of a guy I went to Middle and High School with. As I read the story of what happened, I sat in total disbelief. He is being charged with first degree murder.

I’ve not had any contact with him since we graduated which was almost 12 years ago. I don’t know what path he choose for his life nor what he’s been doing since High School. He was an outgoing, sweet, smart guy. Who was never in any trouble. He was a great guy who would hurt a fly. So for me to see that he killed someone Friday night, is totally unnerving.

I imagine him sitting in jail, wondering what the hell happened and being scared to death.

I hope the full story comes out about what truly happened that night, and the truth will show that he isn’t a mad killer like the article has painted a picture of him to be. At least I hope he's not...

Cat Walking

There is a lady down the street from us that walks her CAT! Yes....her CAT! I saw her walking it the other day and as I was going upstairs I saw her walking it again tonight. I can understand walking a Dog, but a Cat....come on now people!!!!

Next Week

Is a 3 day work week for me. YES!!!!! Thursday is our 4th Anniversary, so we're taking some time off for us and doing whatever we want. Looking forward to spending some down time with Greg. We need it....

Gonna be a good weekend

Tomorrow we get to do our normal weekend errands, then we get all cleaned up to go see Jake Owen (country singer) at Dover Downs. We've been looking forward to see him for a few weeks. Then Sunday at noon we have Darin's 2nd B-day party and then Erin and Steve are coming down for dinner. Looking forward to doing something different this weekend besides working around the house and running around like crazy folks.

Bugs

The only thing I don’t like about Spring is all the bugs. Ants, bees, flies and wasps. Those are all creatures I could do without.

Pretty Smile

I was told by the girl at Blockbuster that I had a pretty smile. It's not often in this day in age that you receive a compliment from a complete stranger. I thought that was nice of her.

Need Caffeine

Dragging ass today and want to go back to bed. Woke up with a headache that hasn’t gone away yet. Time for some more meds and caffeine to try to see if that will help it go away. Waking up with a headache is just a lovely way to start off your day. Why me?!?

Blank

I have many ideas about things I want to write about. Just seem to have a hard time lately putting them all down on paper. The moment I sit to write I draw a blank…but the moment I step away… the thoughts start flowing again. Why is that? It’s annoying.

A visit with my in-laws

We stopped by my in-laws house this afternoon after we finished running all our errands. Greg’s dad was taking every last part out of a rusted old car that he has had for many, many years. He’s stripping it down to hopefully sell the parts on E-Bay. I’d be shocked if he actually sells one freaking piece out of that car. Something tells me that these parts will end up in the basement like the rest of the old car parts that are currently down there. This man has a serious problem and won’t throw anything away. He’s giving a new definition to pack-rat!

His dad stayed in the garage working on the car while we went inside and visited with him mom. Oh what fun that was. She dug around for information on that latest scoop on how my shopping trip with Erin was last weekend, Alexis’s Wedding, Greg’s job situation and of course… the latest about me and if I was still doing Clomid or not. Here is how our conversation kind of went…..

Donna: So are you still taking the Clomid?
Me: Yea, started a new round this week ( I then went on explaining the mishap last month and how I visited with Ostrum about our next steps. Told her that I would be having the laparoscopic surgery on May 23rd ….blah…blah….blah)
Donna: (Well… she didn’t say much …………She just looked me up and down in her normal degrading fashion….as to say you poor girl you.)
Hate---Hate---Hate!!!!!

Me: Well I’d rather know what’s going on and then take if from there.
Donna: (After a few minutes have passed) We’ll the best part about it is… you get to have a lot of fun trying…(hinting for more details)
Me: Ummmm… well sometimes (as I look at Greg in disbelief, can’t believing that she was actually going there )

Okay - I know she didn’t mean anything by it, but for some reason having my mother-in-law try to talk sex with me just seems down right WRONG!!!

Ahhh....Spring

We've been up since about 7. Listened to the birds for a little while as I tried to wake up. It's been great to have the windows open and the fresh air through out the house! I just love spring!

Going for a really long walk in a little while to a local bagel shop in town. Round trip will probably 3-4 miles. Since the nice weather has been around we've been walking and/or playing tennis almost every night. Finally taking time for ourselves and having fun. It's been nice.

Perfect Day

It's 82 and Sunny. There's not a cloud in the sky and a slight breeze. I consider this to be a Perfect Day!

Rant # 2

Did you ever get annoyed at someone just by looking at them? I have a co-worker (we shall call her Linda) that I absolutely just HATE!! From day one, I never liked her. She is a total kiss-ass and a back stabber. She is only nice to you when she wants help or is looking for information to gossip about. ANNOYING - HATE, HATE, HATE.

But what is more annoying then that is... that every time I walk past another co-workers office on the way out of the department, she is always in there talking! Now I would only guess she has nothing to do since she is in there all the time. And I know she is not talking work with this other girl, because they don’t even work on the same team...

So I say....WTF! When the hell did work become an all day social club?

Rant #1 Today

Up since 5:30…

Sat in the Starbucks drive-thru way to long waiting on 2 Lattes. Wanted to yell at the guy to stop talking and make our damn drinks already.

HATE Delaware Drivers!

The drive into work today sucked ass!

Snobby little High School Brats should not be driving around in a new Ford Mustangs.

I’m putting money on it now that I will get sick. The guy next to me is hacking up a lung and blowing his nose every 5 freaking minutes. Thank God I brought my iPod today.

And….. I can’t leave this place until Greg picks me up today which will be sometime after 4.

So far today has just sucked and it’s only 8:30. Happy Wednesday!!!!

Date Set

May 23rd @ 7:30am I go in for my laparoscopic surgery. I have to be at the hospital @ 6 am. That means I have to get up @ 4:30 to get there on time. Oh man that's going to suck. But at least I'm the first patient of the day.

Next Steps

Talked with Dr. Ostrum today...our next step is Laparoscopic Surgery. Nurse will call me soon to schedule... Doesn't this out patient surgery sound like fun........


For a laparoscopy, the abdomen is inflated with gas (carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide). The gas, which is injected with a needle, pushes the abdominal wall away from the organs so that the surgeon can see them clearly. The surgeon then inserts a laparoscope through a small incision and examines the internal organs. Additional incisions may be used to insert instruments to move internal organs and structures for better viewing. The procedure usually takes 30 to 45 minutes.

If endometriosis or scar tissue needs to be removed, your surgeon will use one of various techniques, including cutting and removing tissue (excision) or destroying it with a laser beam or electric current (electrocautery).
After the procedure, the surgeon closes the abdominal incisions with a few stitches. Usually there is little or no scarring.


Fun stuff........Huh?

Ping Pong Games!

E-mails are Evil! Let the Ping Pong games begin!

Monday Morning Blues

It is overcast and a bit chilly here this morning. A perfect day to roll back over and go to sleep. But I can't because it's Monday... which we all know is the wonderful day that starts another fun filled work week. I have a terrible case of Monday Morning Blues. I wish the weekends weren't so damn short! How sad is it that I'm already looking forward to Saturday already and it's only 9:30am?
