Ramblings

June 23rd, 2009

Hey, LOOK!!!!  I’m back again!!!  Can you believe that?  And it’s not even going to have a link in it, either!!!  HOW do ya’ll rate?….*L*

LOTS going on right now.  Have been trying to stay on top of everything.  It’s been…challenging, to say the least…especially the last few days!!!

We got MRI results back on my knee, which I twisted over two weeks ago and went to the doctor about.  According to the nurse that called me yesterday, I didn’t tear anything…it’s just a sprain….*dry look*  I’m not too convinced, for a couple of reasons.  #1:  It’s not getting much better.  After two weeks, you’d think there would be a marked improvement of SOME sort, and there’s not.  #2:  I have wondered before if the local radiologist at our hospital got their degree from a cracker jack box.  Anyway, I guess we’ll see what the next couple of weeks bring, and go from there.  I guess it’s a good thing I haven’t been looking for a job, or have a job outside the home at this point, because my knee probably wouldn’t allow me to work anyway.

I have had two gifts given to me this week that I have never had given to me before.  One of them was a Bible from the church across the street for joining the church.  It was from the ladies of the church.  One of those nice ones with the family tree and marriage records in the front of it….The only thing I find wrong with it is that it is a King James Version, and I don’t generally speak Elizabethan English….*L*  But, I WILL use it, nonetheless.

The other gift was a bottle of perfume….name brand perfume.  Talk about a pleasant surprise!!!  I asked the person who gave it to me how much it cost.  Their comment was “Does it matter?”  I told them that it DID matter, because I was the type that, when I am given something I MIGHT like, I’d like to know how expensive it is, so I will know whether I can afford it or not.  They didn’t tell me the price on it, even with my logic….*LOL*  Of course, one bottle of perfume SHOULD last quite a while, even if I wear some every day, so I guess we’ll cross the bridge of getting more when we get there.  Kind of flattered me to be given perfume…..what’s that saying?  “Flattery will get you everywhere”?  Well, I can’t say it will get you EVERYWHERE with me…..but it IS a nice thought!!!  THANK YOU to the person who gave me the perfume!!!

Well, enough rambling for now, me thinks….have to get out of this chair for a bit and relieve my knee some.  You all take care and have a blessed day!!

    Thanks for checking on me. I’m doing good. Good days, bad days — most of it emotional. Really really nervous about these next few days. But. As I said in my post, God is my Rock and my Comforter, and He’ll get me through it. Pray that we are able to get supplies tomorrow. David bought a net equipment bag that we bobby pinned and taped to my leg. (the equivelant of baling wire and duct tape????) Oh well, its working, and thats all that matters.

    I have no excuses, so I’m coming out of my MIA-ness and gathering my friends around, leaving lots of comments. Oh — note the new URL. Since I’m not PU2Bing at the moment, most of the other blogs won’t get updated for awhile, and may disappear all together. Not sure what is going to happen…

    Talk to you later…

    I would guess that it was intended as a gift? Then the question would be, did you like it or not. Always funny, the origins of it, you know? :)

    Blessings.
