Much Ado About Nothing

Basically this is a post to say we're still alive and kicking. It finally looks like the 100 degree weather is finished after 43 or so days of 100 + weather. Football season is here and well both of our alma maters are taking it on the chin at 0-3. Gloom, despair, and agony on me...at least we have the Cowboys!

Stacey finally got over her bout with strep throat and is back to normal. Still has to have the tonsils out, but probably will wait a while if we can. As the first six weeks nears its conclusion, the ever mindful Stacey is trying to ensure all her grading is done for preparations for report cards have been underway all week. We spent the first two weekends in September helping Stacey's sister move into their new (rental) house in Frisco, so we haven't spent much time at home.

As for me, I've been fighting a cold that seems to be going around my workplace. I've also been hitting the treadmill pretty hard (except for this week) and seems like my clothes have started getting baggier. Still enjoying work, just easy to say love it tons better than my old job. Last weekend, we had a company picnic at the Fort Worth Zoo and it was lots of fun. Nice to be appricated! I must say that it is awesome when the Lord can calm your fears about changing careers/jobs and leaving the one thing you've always wanted to do behind.

CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW???

Yes that's right, I can talk once again! Yeah!! I think I had the worst case of strep throat ever!! My tonsils were literally swollen together and completely white. I couldn't talk, eat, or drink. Praise the Lord I'm feeling back to normal again. Needless to say, I have to have my tonsils taken out. But first things first, I have once again decided to have my foot surgery on December 1st. It is getting harder and harder for me to walk. It's time to do something and SOON! I will take off from work until at least after New Year's. I will be on crutches and I won't be able to drive for 6-8 weeks. I'm not looking forward to having to miss work, but you have to do what you have to do!

Nothing much is going on other than that. I wish we could have 3 day weekends every weekend. I think I would have a much better outlook in life!! :-) I hate Mondays!!
