Getting into the habit of blogging

-

      Ok, so I have been a little lax on blogging this past year. I have seen my ways and have decided to write something on my blog for 15 min. Right now I am out of school until the 30th of Dec. At that time I will start another program, this time for Curriculum and Instruction: Reading. I have always been fascinated with the process of reading and now I will dig deeper into how it works. Tomorrow I have an interview with a company that works with children and eye therapy. This is another fascination I have always had since I have always struggled with problems with my eyes.

   One of the stories that James still tells is the first time I took him home to meet my parents. It was raining I think and we had freezing rain. We were driving from Houston, Texas to Corpus Christi, Texas which is about a 3 hours drive. James was getting tired after a long day and night from working security and asked me to drive his “Blue Goose”. I don’t remember exactly what kind a car it was but it was probably close to the size of a Lincoln. Well, I kept hitting the line in the road, James made a comment to me about my driving, I finally exclaimed, “Well, I am blind in one eye and can’t see out of the other!”.  Twenty years later I still hear about it from James. LOL

    Today, I am doing stuff in 15 minute intervals. I hope to get a lot of stuff done today using this method. Flylady says, “Tthat you can do anything in 15 minutes.” If you have never heard of Flylady, go check her out at www.flylady.net. She helps those that are not born organized. Until tomorrow…katy

What to do at 3 in the morning?

-
Well here I sit at the computer and its nearly 3:30 in the morning now. I started getting sick yesterday at school. I was sneezing like crazy most of the day. When I got home I started taking meds. I took everything from Claritin (thinking it might be my allergies) to Theraflu and so far no real relief. Then about 11:45pm I took something that had an antihestomine (not sure what it was since it was out of the box) I figure good something that would dry me up. Well it actually did dry me up however I have been a wake most of the night. UGHHH!! I was suppose to work today but when i woke up at 11:45 pm and good not hardly talk or do much else i called in to the lady that assigns the subs and told her i could not work. Yesterday, Justin was sick with a low fever and coughing. I am hoping to be able to send him to school today. He has missed 8 days of school so far this year and can not miss anymore than 10 before they decide to retain him. I would rather he not have to stay in 3rd grade a

My Scar

-
                                                                 My Scar     “OUCH”, I said to David. He and I were goofing off during band practice one day. He twisted my right wrist.   I didn’t think much of it at the time. It hurt a little but I soon forgot all about it. Then   about a week later I started having pains in my right wrist.   I was having a hard time being able to bend it. I noticed a large bump formed under the skin on the top of my wrist. I didn’t tell my parents. I figured they wouldn’t believe me and would think it was just growing pains.   It wasn’t until I was in my first semester of college that I noticed that the bump on my wrist was getting bigger. Since Mom used to work with a hand surgeon, she still had connections. So I went to see the Dr. and we set a date for the surgery. It would be on January 13, 1978. This date actually fell on a Friday of all days. I went into the hospital the night before, so I would be ready to go into surgery the ne
