First it is time for Birthday Updates!! Happy Birthday Linda Lee!! She was 44 on 6/24. YAY!!! And please say your prayers that she and Shelia B get the house they want so we can all live near each other again ;-)!! We had a wonderful celebration on Sunday morning with Coffee, Birthday Muffin, and then breakfast at Woodside Deli and Ali and Sunny joined us too!! Linda looked smoking hot. She has been square dancing and you can really tell in her new outfits!! She is going to "the Cape" for 4th of July and we wish her a wonderful time!! Tell the boy's Hi from me and I cannot wait to meet them sometime.
Mom is doing well. I haven't seen her much. I was given the weekend off for good behavior and work has kicked my butt since Sunday morning so I have not done much else. She seems happy and that is a good thing. I will see her this evening (I hope) and I will also spend time with her this weekend. Robbie spent most of the weekend with her and they pretty much finished the big shopping. We need to check on when her other furniture is going to be arriving, since we are at July already. Were did the time go?
Work has been kicking my butt. I have had a phone glued to my ear f0r 41 out of 48 hours. And I cannot tell you what happened from Sunday 7:00 pm to Tuesday night because I was working most of the time. It's been a long year... and a really long two weeks. Hopefully it will settle down.
I do get to work with some of the coolest people. Mike is one of them. This man has a way with computers that is magic. It is not just a platform, or a kind of hardware, or a kind of software... it seems like there isn't anything he cannot do. He works hard for his money that is for damn sure. The thought of if he were to ever leave makes me shudder. His is a mind that puts mine to shame. Plus he is wickedly funny ;-). I hope he is sleeping tonight. He is one of those of us who are sleep challenged. He makes my job easier and I thank him for all he does to help me keep my sanity while working in the most insane place and pace I have ever worked.
Speaking of work I include a link on here on the merger of the NASD and the NYSE Regulation . Suffice it to say this has us all hopping ;-). In addition to everything else we have going on. Funny that me of all people ended up to have a good job with a long tenure. That I would be so responsible, that people would look to me for guidance, support, and solutions in crisis situations.....still amazes me.
I still feel like a 20 something kid trying to figure out how to keep my laundry done, keep myself feed, and still get time to go play. To all my young finds. Enjoy your youth and freedom. One thing I don't feel like I missed out on anything, if I wanted to do something I did it. As long as I felt it was a safe thing to do in a given situation. I always trust my gut and that has kept me out of trouble even in a close call or two. Now I digress. The link on the merger is at the end.
Please say your prayers for Mychelle's brother Bill. He had back surgery yesterday and he had a rough night. He is in ICU but seems to be stabilized but he did crash last night. Say your prayers for Robbie and her foot injury. Sounds like it is not as bad as she thought which is a good thing. Please say your prayers for Mychelle and Shelia. They both have had to make some difficult choices this week and I am proud of them for their choices. So they could use your prayers for them to help them through this time of transition.
Maxie is back from work camp. He was forced to spend time with the most fundamentalist Christians. He is just like the rest of us in our family a die hard liberal so you can imagine how well this went over. SO this wasn't the most fun trip he has ever been on. I give him kudo's for going. I actually wished we had the public service requirement that is now part of the requirements. Coley seems to be doing well monster that he is ;-). I am so blessed to have these boys, all my boys and girls in my life. I love my kids with all my heart.
Katie is going to Italy soon. I am going to be forced to call Jean and Berl to get he info I need to send her some money for her trip. I hope she has a wonderful time!! I cannot believe her trip to Italy is here already! HAVE A WONDERFUL TIME MISS KATIE DID ;-)!!! LU2PMBU!!!
And I send a big shout out to my Colorado contingent!! I hope you all are doing well and sorry I couldn't talk the other day. I hope you all are enjoying your summer!!
Well I have a dog that needs walking and cats that need feeding and new tunes to dance around the neighborhood too ;-). I wish you and all you love all the best life has to offer. My you all be blessed with love, joy, peace, good health, prosperity, and much laughter.
Take Care... Be Safe... Lu2PMBU
