NOT MUCH GOING ON

I thought I would log in and do a post. My life has been crazy to say the least but not really anything exciting if you can believe that. In the past couple of months I started hanging out with my friend Debbie again. I hadn't seen her in years. I think we emailed and even talked on the phone a couple of times in those years but hadn't seen each other or gotten together. So it's been nice seeing her and talking to her.

I've also been hanging out with my friends Kristie, Stacey and Cath when I am able to.

I'm not sure how long it has been, but I had hurt my shoulder/back and it's been bothering me for a long time. I finally went to the doctor, basically because I just couldn't take it anymore. For the past couple of weeks I've been trying to get it healed. I had two doctors tell me they think its bursitis but they are not completely sure because my symptoms don't fit. I forgot to tell them that I'm not completely normal! I think I'm an alien and my Mom forgot to tell me!

I went through a health scare with my Mom. She is most recently diagnosed with Diabetes. She was hospitalized because she had gotten sick but didn't know what was wrong. What she thought it was, she was trying to treat herself for it. Instead it was much more serious and she had to stay in the hospital until her blood sugar was brought back down to normal levels.

Now my Dad is going through health problems. Actually, the ironic part is that he is healthy, but from bad decisions he made when he was younger and carried on through his life up until a year ago...............SMOKING.................he's dealing with clogged arteries and cholesterol. My Dad is now looking at heart surgery, which I'm very much not looking forward to. In my heart of hearts I believe he will be okay but its just the prospect of such a serious surgery.

I also haven't really knitted in months because of the whole shoulder thing. I do a little here and there and it is so frustrating because I want to do more. It's my release from all the stress going on and I can't do that! GRRR.

I'm looking into other craft avenues. I want to get back into quilting and I wan't to do some sewing, making bags................I've been wanting to make bags for a long time, just haven't been organized enough to get my things together. But Now I'm on a mission.....So watch out!
