Lost for words!

Aug 10, 2009

Good Morning Everyone..... 

Normally I don't do this, but I just need to get this off my chest........


So I get to work today and I was pulled into my managers office, the conversation goes on and on... Then here comes the drama!  I was told that it doesn't look good that I am wearing such big clothes and when was I going to start back dressing appropriately, WTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does your clothing affect the way you do your job?  I really do try to ccamouflage my clothes but hey sometimes you can and other times you can't.......

I told him that I can't afford to keep running to the store buying clothes and I'm constantly loosing!  Heck right now its almost time for my son to go back to school and I have to get his school stuff, so I'll have to put me on the back burner its part of being a single parent..........

Has anyone else had this issue?

I'm home

Feb 15, 2009

Hello everyone,

I finally was able to come home on Friday. I had to stay a little longer because I developed a touch of pneumonia.  I'm doing pretty good except Its really hard for me to lay flat on my back.  This morning i was walking down the stairs and i fell down a few of them, just a little bruising, but I'm OK.  When it comes to eating I'm really tired of eating broth, I am able to eat it in the morning, but the rest of the day is really hard.  I have been drinking Crystal Light, Minute Maid Light, and ice chips.  I'm going to call the Dr's office tomorrow to make my followup appointment.

Well I hope all is well with everyone.....

Take Care,
Heather
