A terrible, no good, very bad week!

Feb 25, 2004 21:43

Yes I know, all you readers must think I fell off the face of the earth, but I really haven't! Things in my life have just really been totally crazy. I suppose to understand this I'll have to go back a few days. One day last week my mom informed me that my 87 year old Grandpa was sick. I knew it was bad, but I didn't know how bad until we got there. All of a sudden he could barely walk. When he tried to drive his balance was so off that he tore the side mirror off of his car. And like I said, this all happened in one day. He was perfectly fine the day before, walking fine and everything. His balance was also off. It took the whole family by shock!

Then we're going to have to go to Monday, February 23rd. I was sceduled for my second interview at Huntington Bank at 10am, and my grandpa was scedule for his doctors appointment at 9:45am. While on my way to the interview I couldn't get my grandpa off my mind. It was like I didn't even care about the interview. I kinda figured it was in the bag anyway. So I did get to the intervew and it was going well until they asked me what day I was in school. I told them on Monday's and Wednesday's and evidently. I guess Monday morning meetings are manditory and no one can miss them. They asked if I could move my classes, but this job wasn't that important to me. I do want to go back to full time school, and if I have to take classes on Monday's then I have to take classes on Monday's I'm not going to miss out on having a degree for working at some lame bank. Screw that!
From there I went straight to my grandparent's house to hear the news, but no one was there. I paced around that house for an hour before my mom called. They had taken blood and they were just doing X-ray's when she called. It was another 2 hours before they got home. I ran out to pick up some food when my mom called saying they were on the way home. We didn't get any answers that day. My grandma was supposed to call on Tuesday for the results, but she forgot, thought that the doctor was supposed to call her. On Wednesday we finally got the results. I guess his bloodwork was lacking alot of essential nutrients that the human body needs. Potassium and things like that. They also took him off of one of his medications, hoping that he will get well. But that could take up to a month? So we really don't know much yet, he hasn't really gotten any better,but he hasn't gotten any worse either!

While all of this is going on, I'm also very close to going on my Florida trip with Kristen! I've been very excited for this trip, and even more so recently. However, with my grandpa being sick, I wasn't sure I should really be going. I tormented myself for days, agonizing over if I should go or not. My mom first told me she didn't want me going. But ya'll know how she is. I talked to her about it later, and we both don't think that my grandpa is very serious, he's not going to die, and he should be getting better, so I'm going to keep my trip plans!

On Wednesday I got my test results came back from my "Strong Interest Test" at Macomb. Basically it said that I am a social person and I like to work with people. It also said I'm interested in the medical profession, radiology and dietian, and things of that nature. So it really wasn't that big of a surprise. I found a radiology class at OCC that I'm looking into. Information is going to be sent to my house, so we'll see. I definately think I would like the work, but I hate the science so I don't want to take any more science classes. And that's that!

Thursday was probably the worst day of this week. I haven't told anyone this except for my mom, so this might be a shock to anyone reading this. Nick and I almost broke up yesterday...well it was actually this morning, but whatever. I defiately love him, but I've been feeling really frustrated. Because he doesn't make alot of money we really don't go out very much. I've been feeling really frustrated about this for some time now, and yesterday it just all came out. He says he's going to start looking for a new job. I really hope he finds one soon. If he doesn't, I don't know if I can guarantee a future like this?
