Off Day...

Well I'm off  work today, Hurray!!!

I worked yesterday and didn't get on here to blog, I was so wiped out. Got home and I ate then crashed...

Got up around 10:00am today, it felt so good to sleep in...

I'll Blog more on here later today when things actually start going on...

T.T.F.N...

Long time gone...

Got up really early today, the snow fell in a fury last night. NM got up around 5:20am to shovel the driveway, he had to shovel out halfway onto the raod. The plow truck only plowed half our road and part of that was pushed in front of our driveway. So on top of what he already had to shovel he had to shovel another 5 feet past the drive way. He had just finished shoveling when I left at 7:00am.

Long day at work, I was there two hours early due to my ride having to be to work earlier than me, then I had a long drug out required Lunch of Chicken Noodle Soup, then I got off at 5:30pm, but due to the weather and NM extreme exhaustion, (From studying all night then shoveling our driveway and volunteering to shovel the lady across the street.) I wasn't picked up till 6:20pm. And that was even after he left at 5:50pm because when he went out side he slipped and fell and got stuck in the driveway.

He is alright, I think he bruised his back, I'll have to check. Well Good night I'm totally worn-out. I sat in front of the computer all day going over a bunch of protocol program. Reviewing information and doing a lot of quizzes on all of it. I'm so tired I am going to go cuddly with NM and watch some of the Olympics, then crash, I have more training in the Morrow...

Training Day...

Well today was my first day of actual training at my new job. The worries of the huge snow storm was most of the talk today for my fellow co-workers, besides what I was learning. Which by the way is a lot. Most of the people I work with have been at this place for 5-20 years. They are a pretty good place, they have great benefits...

Missed NM today, its tough leaving in the morning and he is still in dreamland, snuggled warmly beneath the covers. Lucky bum, I had to get up early, ride to work in heavy traffic, and wait there for an hour before my shift started. But I wouldn't have woken him up for anything. He is too cute when he sleeps, and so thoughtful lately since I've been sick. Getting me tissues, water, making me tea, from actual tea leaves too. Making dinner, and the bed, covering up my cold cough medicine drugged butt when I kick the blankets off...

So yeah I learned a bunch of stuff today...blah blah this and blah blah that...the list never ends, and I'm learning more tomorrow. But now I'm home, KM (my sister in law) made tuna patties tonight. We ran out of eggs so we used mayo instead. They didn't turn out as fluffy and flaky as they would have with eggs. Not sure what we are having tomorrow night...

 

(Some weird egg yoke that came out looking like a heart)

"Gotta love them eggs"

Well off to shower and go to bed, early to bed early to rise...blah what ever...

The Buffalo Trip...

Went to Buffalo with NM today. NM is my husband. It was a hour and a half to get there from here in Rochester. Parking was terrible. We stopped at Starbucks Coffee shop to bide some time till his appointment. Their scone was dry, I gave half of it to him. I also gave him the rest of my ice'd coffee. He was elated... he loves when I share with him...

 At the appointment building we walked through the revolving doors, an architect's worst nightmare. The doors stopped when NM went through and there I was trapped in it much like a bee in a metal and glass comb. Figuring I was already sick enough that I couldn't get any more ill, I pushed on through the fun house doors...

I then went through the metal detector and my allergy emergency alert necklace of course set it off. So I had to stand there spread eagle while the S. Guard waved his magic wand. Then he gestured me through to place NM's pocket change, random receipts, and a couple of nuts from a project from who knows how long ago, into my purse. We proceeded on through the double doors to his appointment...

While I was sitting waiting for NM's appointment to end, my nose began to run. So having the awareness of mind to pack a handful of tissue in my purse I blew my nose. Crumpled up the tissue and threw it in the trash and went back to my seat to settle in and wait for NM. All of a sudden like St. Helen my nose started gushing blood, I grabbed for what tissue was left in my purse to try and stop the flow. I had blood on my shirt and hands... I probably looked like something from a horror flick sitting in this government building covered in blood. Thankfully NM came out of his appointment and the ladies room was near. I shoved my purse in his hands, rushed past the S.Guard station, into the bathroom, and got myself cleaned up...

We arrived home not too long ago, NM got the internet back up and running for me and here I am...writing...

How did I get sick...???

Where did this illness come from... was it an allergic reaction to my new work environment or due to the fact that the girl who sat next to me in orientation could not seem to cover her mouth... Why can't people teach their kids how to be sanitary... I tried to avoid sitting next to her the next day, but alas the girl who came the first day dressed professionally and much more casual the day after, sat right next to me again. I tried to not sit next to the ill oppressed one, and now here I lay.. on my bed...sick...why...

Anne's ill musings...

First day of blogging...and me with a cold. I sound much like a crackled mower ready for the morning grass cutting. My nasal passages are blocked and I taste nothing but the remnants of a former cough drop, on the swollen part of what I formerly called my tongue. Laying on the couch with nothing better to do than muse over my thoughts and the agonizing of the mass upon my shoulders atop my neck. Which can not escape the viselike feeling that it is now entailed in. I don't normally converse my thoughts out like this, but the medications that have dulled my feelings to this numbness that I am settled in to rest and recoup has taken its tole on my awareness...
