Blogging

-
Well, I have been horrible when it comes to keeping up with my blog. I hope I can do better in March. This month in our family we have a bunch of birthdays in my family. We have 6 birthdays in March. May we have three including mine, Kristina and Justin as well as Mother's Day. This year Mother's Day and our 29th anniversary are on the same day.

  James got a new job with hospital close by in their Data Center department. He is a Data Center Coordinator. This is the first time he has been over people. He seems to like it. He is in training for 5 to 6 weeks and on temp to perm for 90 days.

As most of ya'll know I have been at home since October of 2015 because of my brain tumor. It caused me balance issues until I was able to get my first surgery in April 26th, 2016. Then of course I had 4 other surgeries because of Spinal Cord leak issues, Ovarian Cancer diagnosis and chemotherapy for 3 treatments in 2016 and 2017. Hopefully, I am done with surgeries for a while. Anyway, I am hoping to get to where I can be off of disability. I have paid my application fee to get recertified and got my fingerprints done and sent in. (Have to do this on Saturday).

I have subbed twice now and it's been going pretty good. I have four assignments next week. I am sticking with high school right now.

This past year, I have been focusing on my writing. I am on several writing groups and have also started one called Cowabunga Writing Group on Facebook. We have fun sharing our work and I have met some new friends online.
Well, guess that is all the dribble I have right now. Leave me a message and let me know you came by. Sometimes, I feel like I am just talking to myself on here. 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
