Had to call oof from work today. My lower back is really hurting me and has been for the last couple of days. I'll most likely have to go to the Dr. and get a muscule relaxer shot. this usually happens 3 or 4 times a year. I can have my back operated on, but right now I relly do not want to do that as it doesn't always work. I'll just add my back pain to my carpal tunnel now.

I swear the older I get, the more I'm breaking down. I really don't mind getting old, I just hate all the darn aches and pains that go with it.

I am so mad right now I want to scream. I told someone I thought I could trust something in total confidence and the next thing I know the whole damn store knows.  I feel hurt, angry and very betrayed and not sure what to do about it. what I tld her was not a really big deal and nothing to embaress me or anything, I just didn't want the whole damn world to know. I guess you really can't trust anyone these days and thats a very sad thing.

Today at work was very slow. The clock never seemed to move and that may ahve been because I was so hurt and mad over what happened earlier, I'm not sure.

Two of my favorite managers have left. Well one has already left and the other one leaves on Tuesday. I really like these two and so does most people in our store, but they are being transferred to other stores and so we will be getting two new managers. I know it happens all the time but it still sucks as you get to know them and stuff and then the next minute they are gone. I really feel like crap today.

I am having about of insomnia and it sucks. Not only am I having trouble sleeping, I got a charlie horse in my leg which hurts like hell and makes it hard to walk. I swear the older I get, the more I'm starting to fall apart.

It seems that maybe spring is comming. It was 60 degrees yesterday but very windy and rainy. The threat of a tornado was possible but thankfully never happened. The two I was involved in last year at this time was enough for me as it would be for anyone.

My carpal tunnel is still bothering me. It doesn't seem like the brace is helping much except to get in my way when trying to do things. I may have to go to the Dr. and look at other options cuz it still hurts.

Getting ready to do some major spring cleaning around the house. Gonna start with teh abck bedroom and make my way forward. I really didn't do much last year, but this year I plan on gettting rid of tons of stuff.We have way too much junk.

I have the next two days off from work and any days off from work is a good thing. Yesterday was so busy, I could hardly keep up but it was Presidents Day and most people were off from school and work which was most likely why it was so busy. The day went by fast though which is the one good thing about being busy, time flies.

My hand still hurts alot and I am hoping something can be done for it but from everything I have heard about Carpal Tunnel from friends who have it is that it's really almost impossible to get rid of. I was told even surgery can't promise anything. I will have to wait and see what the Dr. says. I am wearing a brace right now which seems to be helping somewhat.

The snow is FINALLY melting. It is leaving behind a nasty muddy mess but I can deal with that. I am just hoping the snow is done for the year but I'm not really holding my breath right now. I am SOO ready for spring.It can't come fast enough for me.

It's official. I have Carpal Tunnel in my left hand. It really hurts and is a royal pain, but I am going to the doctor again on Tuesday to have it checked out and to see what can be done. I really don't want to opt for surgery, but I may not have a choice. This really sucks.

Hubby and I almost got a 12 week old Golden Lab puppy today but the last one found a home before we could go get her. I'm pretty bummed but am also happy that she has a good home now. We are planning on going to the shelter on Tuseday after the doctors appt. and will most likely come home with another dog or puppy.

It started snowing last night before I got off work and shows no signs of slowing down now. It's beautiful to look at but I really hate being out in it.

My dog Buster though loves it and is going in and out, in and out. I love watching him play outside. He takes his nose and makes paths across the yard. I'm gald someone loves it.

Saw some beautiful winter birds this morning in my backyard eating and hopping around. It was a nice sight and if it wasn't snowing so bad I would have taken my camera out to try and get a shot. I also didn't want to scare them off.

Have the next two days off from work and do not plan on leaving the house for anything unless it's an emergency. Hubby and I went to the store last night after work and picked up some groceries and other stuff and we should be all set. I am not leaving this house until Thursday morning.

Tim's knee is getting better. He popped it at ork and it was very swollen and sore. The swelling has gone down and he is able to walk around without help and thats a good thing.

I know it's been awhile since I have posted and I really don't have too much to really tell.

I'm home from work today because my husband blew out his knee and I need to help him get around and do stuff for him and since I don't have my license yet, there was also no one to take me to work as it is Sunday and the buses don't run.

Hubby and I did finally go to Walt Disney World Jan. 21st thru Jan. 27th and had a wonderful time. We plan on going back next year as we didn't get to do everything we wanted to do the first time out.

I took tons of photos and I mean tons. 1685 to be precise.

I finally got my drivers permit and I am both happy and proud of myself. Ok so I'm getting it 20 some years too late but never late then ever. I have never really wanted or cared about driving before and I think I am ready now.

My hubby has been really supportive about it and is the only person who has never pushed me about getting one. I told him I wanted to drive and he said ok. He is such a kool guy.

I drove a bit today and hubby said I really did a great job for a beginner and I was happy to hear that. I am pretty excited about the whole thing and we ae already talking about a second car for me.

Not much else really going on in my life at the moment as everyone who reads this silly journal knows my life isn't really all that.

Hope everyone had a great Labor day. I had to work it, but for double time pay I didn't mind too terribly much. My big question is though, If Labor Day is supossed to honor people who work for a living why are tons of people working that day?

I have been wanting to get my living room walls painted and I am finelly going to be able to do so next week. I have been saying I'm going to get it done weeks ago but am now finally going to stop putting it off.

I am painting one wall bright red and the other three walls will be a beige color. I have added a bright red slip cover to my big sofa and my two chairs are done in  two diffrent shades of beige with red pillows. I will be adding black sheer curtains which will go behind the sofa. I think it's going to turn out really nice.

My husband is making me a 6 foot wide by 1 foot deep mantle which I plan on painting black which will compliment my red wall very nicely. I have three large poster prints which I will reframe in white and hang on the red wall. I can't wait til it all comes together.

My living room was supossed to be blue and beige but the 8 foot rug I ordered came to me in red not blue and I didn't really want to roll it back up and lug it to the post office and so I kept it and I am glad now. I really like it.

My Disney trip is going great. All I have to do now is wait until  Jan. 21st. I was suposed to go in March but finances are allowing me to go in Jan. which was my first choice anyway.

Not much more to really say for now, I lead such an intresting life LOL. I am looking forward to next monthe though as the new Sims 2 expansion comes out.

Not much really exciting going on here on the homefront but noticed I hadn't posted in abit so thought I would write something.

The Disney trip is all ready to go. All we ahve to do is wait for Jan. 21st. which to me is a long time away but I can't make time go by any faster and my hubby says it will get here quicker then I think and then it will be all over. Can't tell I'm excited about going can you?

Had my days off changed which I am not happy about at all. One of the girls I work with is going to college and can't work on Mondays so my days off are now Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I lose a day with my hubby but it can't be helped and this change is only until a new photo tech. can be trained, then I will go back to my old schedule, but I still don't have to like it.

All of our Halloween stuff is up at wor and I think it's WAYYYY to early. We even have some Christmas lights on the sales floor. I think I might have mentioned this in another post but I will do so again as I really think it's stupid and dumb. They force all thses kool holidays on people so damn early that you don't really have anything to look forward to. I used to love Christmas and now not as much, because where I work I see it as early as late Aug. Early Sept.

I am glad the work week is over for me for a couple of days. We have had ruede people almost all week long and It gets very tiring. I know that rude people come with the joys of retail, but damn, there is a limit. Sometimes I want to find out where these people work and go there, but being the nice person that I am I would be very nice as two wrongs do not make a right.
