Happy Labor Day!
Even though I had to work today - on Labor Day, it was an okay day!Carl came and took me to lunch. It was nice to get out for a bit.
I was also able to work on my next Kids class. I am doing an artwork page. It turned out very cute - if I do say so myself. Although the only trouble I seem to be having lately is, I usually have an idea in my head, and start to put it on paper. I'll get the layout part of it done, but then my page looks boring and I need to add ribbon or something to it, with out taking away the feel of it. I had Robyn help me with the last part of it. I always like having another source to refer to and an opinion I trust and respect and admire. She was in a funny mood this morning. She did not want to open the store today - being a holiday! I don't blame her. So she went and bought us all Krispy Kreme donuts - although I already had one on my way into work. But don't tell anyone since I'm supposed to be on a really lite diet!
I am feeling a little better. It's more of a suble pain now. But if I sit too long or take a deep breathe - it hurts. In the same spot. The meds don't seem to do much for the pain, they just turn my skin yellow. Fortunately I'm actually looking FORWARD to going to see Dr. Freburg and the specialist. I normally HATE this stuff. Especially the poking stuff and now when the push on me. That hurts! Ok I promised I wouldn't complain - I will NOT be a sissy!
Other than that it's been a pretty peaceful day. Carl slept most of the day, he's tired. Work has been kinda crazy for him. He's doing the criminal desk and the civil desk a little bit of both I guess. But he LOVES his job. As do I. We have been very fortunate in that department.
Oh and I'm sooo EXCITED - Brenda is staying! There was talk that her husband would stay with his job in NC. And they would move out there. But now they've decided they don't want to move her two teenage girls. They are starting to adjust to life and school here and starting to like it. (they are from Oregon, Salem I think)But they've decided Steve will work in NC for a year, and come home on three day weekends and holidays and stuff. I am SOO glad. We have become good friends. I need to drive more so I can drive over there and hang out with her. They also have a Cavaliar King Charles Spaniel, like Mom's dog, named Hope. She looks more like Bailey but has a brown/redish nose more. I am soo glad she is staying! That made my day!!
