I'm getting sick again YUCK!! Figures since I'll be heading to WV on Friday and then on to OH on Saturday. Back to WV on Sunday then heading back to NC on Monday. I hope I feel better by then. I have a million things to do to get ready to go and I don't feel like doing any of them. I can't miss any work right now because we are swamped. Sniffle sniffle cough cough cough. I wanna go home and go back to bed. I slept from 7pm yesterday until 6:30 this morning. I very seldom ever get more than about 5 hours of sleep a night. I feel like a truck run over me.

The weather outside is something this morning. It's 70 degrees but it is pouring and I do mean pouring down the rain the wind is just a blowing. Maybe the power will go out (wishful thinking, just at work though lol).

Well, enough of my griping first think this morning. I hate not feeling well. I hope everyone else is doing well today and may you all be blessed!!!

I love New Year's!! I think it is my favorite holiday. I love the prospect of new beginnings and the promise to make positive changes.

2008 was a rough year. Brian and I had some major life changing events happen last year. But we toughed it out together and our love is still as strong as ever.

Brian went through a tough spell and did some job changes so we had to make some financial adjustments but it is all okay. He's also had some health issues but is doing well.

It wasn't easy on me to lose my beloved pomeranian "Max" last year. That dog was my best friend for 11 wonderful years. I still miss him terribly but Brian and I will search this new year for another furry friend.

Other changes last year was a dear friend moved away. We also had some major layoffs in the company that I work for and many people that I was close to and used to seeing everyday were let go. That was a hard adjustment.

But, I was very fortunate to connect with some old friends.

It's been a roller coaster ride as far as illnesses go,with Brian being in the hospital in July, his dad breaking his hip. My dad's numerous trips to the hospital. But we are very fortunate that everyone is still with us and that's what counts the most. I've made a pact to improve my health and well being so I can hang around myself lol!

May your new year be filled with happiness, hope and well being. Love to all and Happy 2009!!

Boy, am I ever grumpy today. Maybe it's because I had to come back to work. I dunno. Maybe I got up on the wrong side of the bed. Anyway, I'm trying hard to get out of my mood.

The weather is pleasant. It was 76 here yesterday. It's a little cooler today but not bad. I'm ready to spring clean now that Christmas is over. I wish I was home.

I will welcome any uplifting thoughts anybody would like to share today.

Hope everyone is having a better day and in a better mood than I am ROFL!!

I just picked my dad up a bit ago from the hospital. He is doing fine. At first they thought he may have a had a heart attack but thank goodness he hadn't. His blood pressure dropped yesterday down to 63 over 46 and they took him off one of his meds to get it back up. It regulated this morning so they let him come home. We are going to do our Christmas dinner tomorrow evening( Brian and I ate Cheesburgers and fries at Denny's Christmas day LOL!!) I'm taking the rest of the day today to get caught up on laundry and stuff. I've been finishing Christmas shopping today (online) for the rest of the gifts for my mom and Brian's family. We are going to WV and OH the weekend of January 9th to celebrate with them.

Other than that, not much going on here. Brian is watching the Mountianeer/UNC bowl game. I watch it for awhile then i go do something then come back and watch it. I hope they can win. I went to a bowl game in Florida in 1997 and they played UNC then. Brian and also went to Don Nehlans' last bowl game in 2000 in Nashville, TN. I about froze to death. Brian and I were thinking of going to Charlotte for today's game but I'm glad now we didn't with Dad in the hospital and all.

I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend!! Have a blessed day!!

lET'S GO MOUNTAINEERS!!!!
