Renewal and Reminder

Fluxomatosis
2008-04-05 20:46:00 Just when I thought I had put the craziness of 2007 to bed, 2008 came along and it’s threatening to be even worse. I would love to remember what a sense of normalcy feels like. Randy may be changing jobs before too long. Everyone at his place is ready to bail, due to the owner not ... More About: General

That Was Yesterday
2008-04-03 13:59:00 I called Susan yesterday evening. She said things were going well, but then later in the conversation mentioned that her pain was about a 3 or 4, which she said for most people is probably a 6 or 7. I told her this was totally unacceptable, especially considering she is getting hospice care. ... More About: General , Yesterday
Bump in the road
2008-04-02 21:14:00 I’m having one of those days where I’m wondering if I’m cut out for this new MT career. I won’t go into detail, but I will say I had myself a good cry earlier. To think I was in such a good mood this morning! I must be bipolar. I don’t think Lexapro works for ... More About: General , Bump , Road , The Road

2008-03-31 13:35:00 First of all, I want to apologize for being so selfish in my posts lately. It’s not all about me. I had a much-needed reboot yesterday. I’m always surprised at what God can do when I just make myself available to Him. We heard a really good message yesterday, as we always do ... More About: General , Texas , Button , Reset

2008-03-30 18:55:00 I spent most of the afternoon in bed yesterday. It was cloudy and cool and I just wasn’t in the mood to do anything. Sometimes it’s nice to shut down for awhile. Although I don’t understand everything God allows to happen, I know His Will remains perfect. I know that whatever chaos is around me that ... More About: General , Grow

2008-03-29 20:12:00 Susan called this morning while I was out getting groceries. I called her back, knowing the news wouldn’t be good. She said on Thursday, she had to be taken to the ER.

Spring This!
2008-03-09 15:26:00 I love spring, but I hate this whole “spring forward” business. Is it really necessary? I do NOT look forward to getting up at 3:50 a.m., which will now be the already-OMG-it’s-early wake-up time of 4:50. YUK! I guess this means I’ll be going to bed at 6:30 so I ...

2008-03-08 20:30:00 OK, I admit it. I’m a wuss. Spoiled. A brat. I forgot what it was like to work, and during training on Wednesday, I felt like my head (or my heart) was going to explode. I almost quit the very first day, it was that overwhelming. The next two days weren’t quite as bad…but I ... More About: General , Brain

Shaky Ground
2008-02-26 14:48:00 Randy’s company is beginning to show its true colors, which is more than a little scary. I’ll just say that they aren’t basing job security on the right things. It’s typical media management in a lot of ways, so it doesn’t really surprise me after so many years of Randy being in the radio biz. ... More About: General , Ground
More Work!
2008-02-25 14:55:00 Carole was pleased with my transcription. Apparently, I did so well that she even let me do some QA on another MT’s work! That was a a learning experience for me as well, and it made me feel good that someone appreciates my efforts. She offered to let me do the same urologist’s transcription all week and I agreed. It’s not much dictation, but it will help me keep my “ear” until I get started with Amphion. I made all of $11 over the weekend, and it took me 2 hours. The transcriber and pedal are a bit archaic, which really slows me down. I know I’m going to be very slow for awhile, anyway. I’m just happy to be working and having an option for local transcription! That’s worth its weight in gold, even if it’s only $11 for now. LOL More About: Work

Prayers for Susan
More articles from this author:2008-02-21 14:18:00 Susan called me yesterday. The good news is that the existing tumors have not grown. They haven’t shrunk either. The bad news is they saw some spots on her lungs. They started her on yet another type of chemo yesterday, and she will also start oral chemo on top of that. Please…keep her lifted up in prayer. I know God hears us. I pray that His will be done and that Susan is surrounded by His love, courage, comfort, and peace. Her attitude has been, and still is, amazing. Thank you. May God bless you.
