hugs to everyone else........

Howdy folks! I wasn't supposed to be here today. This was my day to take the kids to my parent's house and veg there all day. Unfortunately I got sick yesterday (Sandy ) and decided to postpone my plans. I wasn't sure if I was contagious or not. I think a bit of expired food did me in. Anyway I am doing much better today but taking it easy so I can work the next two days.

Speaking of work I picked up my first paycheck today. I went shopping after that and spent 90 cents. I'm trying to decide if I'm gonna go after an online certificate now (Last chance! Act now before the price goes up!) or wait. If I could pay it all now I would but I have to use a payment plan that will take me 1.5 years to pay off a few months of education. Will have to crunch some numbers now that I know what my paycheck will be a decide soon.

Time to get some ginger ale and curl up with a good book or something equally nice.

Hugs all around.

hey all,
Well, please say prayers for my family, well my daddy!! We all did have colonoscopys, back years ago when sister found her cancer. All were clear. My dad did have polyps back then but cleared and no problems. We all are suppose to do the test every 5 years, and parents every 3 years! So my dad, I guess had his colonoscopy once again today, since been 3 years or a bit more. Well,

yes you guessed it, he not only had polyps that were removed, but a spot, (I dont have info size of the spot) anyhow, he said, that they took sample to biopsy it, but that he warned them that by the looks of the spot..it looks malignant!!! Well, then my mom asked if it does end up malignant what is the next step...they mentioned Mayo. Not sure if just cause we are in small town...as many around here have done cancer stuff closer...or I am thinking with his age being what it is! He is now, 76!! Healthy mostly otherwise.

He has been so quiet, ever since losing Madeline, and for month or more after she passed away I know my dad wasnt sleeping much! mom was worried..you know some men...quiet when dealing with sadness....

anyhow, guess they will hear in few days! i happened to call over there after they had just gotten home with the news. She mentioned (as I was driving home from work as we talked) that she will call me back later, she wanted to talk but not when I am on the road....I knew what that meant..just didnt know who was the bad news about. So I said NO, Mom it is ok tell me now.

So, here we go with Cancer most likely in the family!!

Now that I got that off my chest!! had needed to share, since just told bit ago!!

Otherwise, things are ok, work is work!! Lets just leave that as that!! trying at home to forget about work trying anyhow..

Kids or one of the kids, is buggin me to take them to movies...since we havent in so very long...I might just suprise them and take a few to Marley and ME!

maybe, as I am tired out...as always!!

luv and hugss to all, sarah

I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad, Sarah. I'll think positive thoughts....maybe the news will be good or better than you expected.

I'd love to go see a movie....haven't been in years. I just cannot sit that long. Have to move around or I get so stiff I walk like a zombie for quite a while after I finally get moving! I miss going to movies. We used to go on rainy weekend days. Such fun!

Just popping in again to let you guys know Jim doesn't need to go in the hospital. The culture showed mixed flora meaning it is OK for now. That is a big relief for us.

Good evening all

Sarah your family and dad are deep in my prayers and sending positive vibrations his way hang in there girl

Sandy, this is good news, am glad to hear no hospital visit
