No More Work!

I officially resigned from my job yesterday. My co-workers were surprised and upset, but at the same time, they all knew that I need this time to get back 100% physically and mentally. I was told that I always have a home there, and that they would have me back in a heartbeat. That means a lot.

Unfortunately, a side effect from the back surgery has come to light - I have a few herniated discs in my neck that are causing circulation problems in both my arms and hands, aggravated by my laying on my back for the past 4 months. I see a nuerosurgeon next week to determine therapy or surgery.......please say a little prayer for me that this situation can be resolved with therapy. I don't think akjn can go through another surgery!

Other than that, all is well. The weather is great, and we are preparing for a trip East next month. We have a wedding in Kill Devil Hills, NC the weekend of 10/18, then I will be heading up to Media to visit mama and the good buddies. I can't wait to see my mom!!! It's been almost a year.

OK, heading out to turn in my keys!
Have a great day, peeps!

MNF :(

Damn....we we so close tonight!
I hope this is not the beginning of another disappointing season....

Steelers next week - another nail biter.






Just back from the eye doctor - I was experiencing blurriness when reading up close.
Results: I am heading for bifocal glasses & contacts country within the next year. For now, he recommended the $10 reading glasses that you get from a pharmacy. I went to Walgreens, and unfortunately the selection of glasses for the strength I needed was very poor, so I ended up with some large black 1950's frames. Looking good!

Later, peeps!
