Need a break...

You know, there comes a time when you realize that you need a break. Don't get me wrong, I have a fabulous job which I really enjoy. I love my residents, I have a fabulous and very understanding boss (which is a great blessing) and thouroughly love my partner in crime. But, I must admit, I need a break and feeling worn out. I have someone I adore dying and it's been really hard. I had a bit of a melt down last week when talking with her daughter and the rest of the day was shot. I was more composed today when I actually got to see her. I knew that this was part of the plan but it's still hard. Though, the partner in crime has given me permission to run away to California with my dad for a few days. I think I'll take him up on the offer though I hate the thought of leaving him here and not bringing him, too. I just like going places with him and would want him to come but that can't always happen. Though, I will admit, the idea of a crazy road trip with my dad sounds great! We were notorious for our crazy trips!
Anyhow, the partner in crime as two more semesters of school. WAHOO!! There is actually a light at the end of tunnel. We are relieved that the end is in sight and looking forward to the excitement that lies ahead. Who knows where we'll end up but it'll be interesting to see where.
So, that's it for now. I hadn't realized it had been so long since I had posted something. Just needed to vent today.

HA! Twice in one month! What now?!

So, I've turned over a new leaf and have now posted twice within a month. It's pretty amazing, I know. I sometimes even amaze myself. Tee hee!
Things are good, just for the record. My herbal treatments for anxiety and depression, etc are going very well and even the partner in crime can tell I'm doing better. It's refreshing to be doing better. Though, I thought I was ok before but not as well as now which is great!!
Work is great. My fearless leader (A.K.A. my boss) is on vacation currently and is returning to work on Wednesday. I find I miss having her around and am looking forward to her triumphant return!
I have stitches. Six of them in my left shoulder. My made up story is that I was trying to help a resident who was falling down and their walker came and hit me in the shoulder with a bolt that holds the wheels on. The true story is that I had a cyst/nodule thing removed. Nothing quite as exciting as getting hit by a walker and that's ok. It doesn't help that it's on my left shoulder and I'm left handed which had been difficult not to use as much. I seem to continue to over do it and aggravate it on a daily basis which isn't helping the getting better process. ARG. I really am trying to tone it down. Stitches come out on the 23rd.

The Roller Coaster of Life

As usual, my cohort and I have neglected to post on here in sometime and I've decided to fix that!!
Life as usual has thrown us our share of ups and downs. We're holding on and hoping we can navigate through successfully. Between school, job changes, traveling and life in general, we hold on to dear life and hang in there.
Attempting to get my health back in check as I've been battling anxiety and depression problems for a few years and hormonal problems, too. Started visiting a guy praticing Chinese herbal medicine/accupuncture. I went to him a few years ago and after talking with my 2nd mom, she suggested I go see him again. A few hiccups along the way and a melt down yesterday, I am hopeful and look forward to getting better and feeling better!! I am having more "happy" days and better moods which is nice after a while of not doing so well. I went to him a few years ago and did very well so I know things will improve!!
Scorch has one year left of school! WAHOO! Just getting through finals this week and we're glad we aren't having to deal with the drama's from last year this week. Miscarriages, ER visits and finals just aren't a good combination!! So, we are looking at the future and where we want to end up when he's done. Seattle is looking like where we want to head at this point but we'll see where the jobs take us!

A little neglectant to say the least

I keep mentioning to my partner in crime and better half that we haven't posted in AGES and though since I'm confined to home presently fighting the stomach bug I'd remedy the situation.

I find my self at yet another crossroads in my life as I deal with an on going fight that's plagued me for probablly the majority of my life. Though I'm aware of it's effects on me, I'm yet again reminded of how it effects other aspects of my life because I have yet to fully master it. Though only diagnosed with A.D.D. five or six years ago, I can see how it's been with me my whole life and has had it positive attributes and its share of negatives which I'm dealing with curently. My brain processes things different and sometimes a bit slower which presents problems in multiple aspects of my life. I just hope that I can get focused (ha, what irony) again.

About time I posted...

So, again I find myself realizing that I haven't posted in a while and thought I better. The new job is treating me alright and I'm learning a lot. You know, when I worked for this company a while back, it was completely different. A lot has changed technology wise and I'm finding that it's different than I expected it to be coming back. Hasn't been what I thought it would be but at the same time, some of it is still the same which is nice that there's something I still know. Very grateful for a job at least! 

Other than that, just trying to hang in there with life. I don't think I'm any different than anyone else in that aspect. 

Just posting...

Not much to say but wanted to post something. I'm glad that things seem to have settled down and turned out ok. I don't always seem to handle some of life's craziness as well as I should sometimes but am glad that we're on the other side. Enjoying the job and the people seem nice, too. Looking forward to good things happening this year. Last year got a little rough!

We recently paid off the car and I just went to the DMV to get the title in our names! Wahoo! I've never out right owned a car before (I've only had three up to this point) but I'm pretty excited!

Like I said, not much to say. Nothing exciting! Oh, my partner in crime is addicted to the t.v. show "Big Bang Theory" and we borrowed season 1 from the parents and the only reason they got it back (after he watched it at least 5 times) was because the sister let us borrow season 2. She may not get that back for a while!! Or, atleast until we get the season's for our collection! It's pretty funny! I enjoy how much he likes the show.

First comic strip rough draft

Our old printer decided to die on us, so when shopping for a new printer, we chose one with a scanner. Here is the rough draft of the first comic strip again, but this time, its actually LEGIBLE!!! Enjoy!

By the way, please tell me how much of a nerd I am. We had a competition in my accouting class, and I was having a ton of fun! It was probably the highlight of my week. By the way, you don't really have to tell me how much of a nerd I am; I think I just found out.....
