yet another update

I tried to post the other day but for whatever reason I wrote out the entire post and the blogger was having techincal difficulties and ate the whole dang post. Argh!

This week has been rough....rough in a good way though. Really busy! I am working 12 or 13 hour days so that I can have money to go to Disneyland with my family in December. Rob is comming with us. I am excited about that. I am not loving the long hours but it is good to be able to work.

My health is doing pretty good actually. I did get the 24-48 hour flu...that was pretty icky but it's over now which I am entirely thankful for.

Rob's mom is still in the hospital. She is doing okay. She has two horrible bed sores on her back. They must hurt terribly. Although she really shouldn't be able to feel too much since she is hitting her morphine button every few minutes.

Her house is trashed right now. We are redoing the back room for her so she has someplace clean to come home to. It's a nightmare. The house had a roof issue and the back room needs so much work....we've cleaned and cleaned and cleaned so we can get to the point where we can drywall and now we are ready to mud. I love home improvement...really I do...but home improvement on a short time limit and really limited budget stinks bad.

I'd also like to go on record and say....drying walling ceilings would be a great method of torture.
My muscles hurt. Even typing hurts now. My hands are tired...my skin even hurts. I would make a horrible construction worker and that is all there is to it.

The dogs are doing well. Sweet pea is lucky I've let her live. She seems to be confusing my expensive electronics for her chew toys. My cell phone is dog chewed. My remote....dog chewed...my camera....not dog chewed but only because i've secured it in the camera case in a drawer in a desk in a room with the door tightly shut...and if she gets to that...i guess she'll die cause I'll kill her.

Well I am at work...will be at work for the next 8.5 hours....now if that's not a depressing thought I am not sure what is.

Hope everyone else is well.
