News from the Front

Well, it certainly has been awhile since I've poster-I've been lurking-too much on my plate at times.The new job, to say the least is different.  Since I've been there, there has been MAJOR personell changes,mostly managerial in both stores and my office manager has been running between both-so my training was left to a 23 yr old office mgr wannabe, who has been conveniently leaving little details out of my training.  Job insurance-I think-so it has been a rocky start until my manager got back to our store for good.  Now that a grown up is in charge it is going well-I love bookkeeping-I'm sick-I know.  Eddie got approved for disability benefits in 6 weeks-that's unheard of-but he has so many issues there was just no way the Social Security people could deny him-I ran out of room in his app for all of his Drs.  I wish his mental adjustment was as easy-he is getting better-but it's like pulling teeth to get him to go out-he struggles so hard to get dressed he just says it's not worth it-he has anti-deppressants but won't take them-somedays I feel like I'm at a wake waiting for the body to arrive.  My girls have been pretty  mellow-one is due tomorrow w/grandson #6,the oldest just reached her 5 yr survival anniv. as a breast cancer survivior, for which I am prasing God for!!  I just finished the happy dance over that when her younger sister came by for the 1st time since April to tell me that the reason she's avoiding me is because she 3 tumors in her left breast-one is already 2 cms,-too dense in her breast to biopsy.  So she saw some general srgn and he did some test and says it's probably benign, but they'll check it every couple of months.  Her sister is completely unglued over this and I 'm just as flustered-she has agreed to see a REAL breast specialist and we are praying for good news.  I have 3 docs to see this week-I need a fill and my 1 yr was in May so I'm over due and I have test results to get about this bone pain that is playing havoc w/my life and another trip tp the Ortho to see if he has any take on it and to look at my twisted knee.  I went Toosh over teakettle in the yard yessterday and hyper-extended my knee on the leg w/the brace so I can safely assure you all that Grace is not my middle name.  Please keep my Therese in your prayers-I don't know how I will endure watching another one of my girls go through what Laura did.  Love and big hugs to all-Janet K-and yes I know I need to update my pic-as soon as Joyboy can work up the gusto to walk and chew gum in the same day or show me how it'll get done.  He's very territorial about the camera-men-go figure!

Janet, It is so good to see you post again, I am so happy for your daughter   to be cancer free for 5 years.That is quite an accomplishment. I am als o so happy for you, to be a new grandmother, again, with 6 grandsons. I have a granddaughter, and that will be all. I hope and pray that your youngest finds out her tumors are benign. You and Eddie both have had a lot to go through this past  year or so. Hopefully your lives will straighten out.Please don't stay a lurker. We need to stay in touch with you. At least come by and say hello.
