Molly's father has fallen ill. They are biopsy-ing for cancer.

We love Chad a lot and this is a hard time.

If you are of the praying sort please ask for healing or safe passage. God's will is God's will, but we want Chad's comfort and peace of mind. And we selfishly don't want him to go.

Thank you...

I was in my monday meeting here at work yesterday morning when the receptionist ran up and grabbed me. My sister was on the phone, frantic. Molly was on the floor of the kitchen and couldn't move. Her back went out. I went home and called an ambulance. They gave her some shots, some prescriptions and I'm sorry we can't do more" looks ( Read more... )

Since running again I am afraid of my shin splints. It started hurting yesterday so I took some Ibuprofen. Today my legs feel great. I know it's naive, but I'm really hoping my shins will hold out.

Lord when I was a kid I could run from one coast to the other without even knowing what a shin was...

When they moved me to an area less secluded at work, my private blogging time went down to nil, it appears. With my sister and the girls at home (and my new exercise routine geared to prepare me for the next Olympics) time there for journaling isn't much better of an option ( Read more... )

He was a very big and intimidating ( Read more... )

My sister has been having a rough time of it, but her and the kids are finally at my place! Crashed out on the livingroom floor. They showed up sometime after 11. At least that's when we fell asleep. Poor Molly will probably be tiptoeing around them until David wakes up. There's no tiptoeing about him ( Read more... )

At what point to you get worried that maybe you get sick more than most people.

Not to mention that weird thing that happens when I take Benedryl. (shudder)

Because of my medicine I am very aware of my body. I sweating and nervous. It shows when I talk. I look guilty.

But I'm kindof enjoying it... go fig.

I'm dead tired and at work on a sunday. I have a lot to get done and all I can think about is going home and going to bed ( Read more... )

They moved me one whole cubicle to the right. So, uhm, now I'm closer to the printer? It's actually much nicer here. I was by a window before, but it was those little glass cubes you can't really see out of and even if you could I would have only had a view of a brick wall. Now I have two extra lights. It's actually brighter over here. The ( Read more... )
