Isaac's on another spree - another box of CDs in SHARING 483

Lord, looking at the KFC Yum Center's website, One Direction is going to be there in June....  If Amanda from your youth finds that out she'll want to come early for that. 

Yeah, she's kinda obsessed. Lol

My friend Ann is back in ICU. We almost lost her, again. She was put in a regular room on Tuesday morning, and I spent the night with her Tuesday night. That was horrible. That's when she got so bad again and was critical. They moved her back to the unit yesterday morning. She was really bad still all day. We had prayer last night, and something happened. She said she even felt it alone in her room. When I went up there last night, there was a visible change for the better! God is merciful.

I'm at dialysis with dad now, waiting for them to let him in, then its BACK to the hosp.

I. Am. Exhausted. But it's ok. Sleep and rest is for the weak. Haha.

[MelodyB]

Now she's on a vent.

But it's the first time in days she has been able to breathe and sleep. This may be what she needs for awhile.

I'm back at home currently, fixing to take mom and her dog to the groomers for matching haircuts.

  What a day. First, At&T in thier wisdom did an update that locked my phone up. Locked up phone= no alarm clock. End result, I was late for work. And the Capitol has no wifi thanks to our inept group of idiots in I.T., so I'm bored stiff. Add to that my annoyance at having my plans changed this weekend, and an event I've got to go to I really wasn't crazy about and an event I WANTED to go to that I can't....well, it's probably good that I haven't had internet. Bah.

[Lynx]

I'm guessing they wouldn't hire me to install wifi...

Actually if I were in I.T. there I'd argue against wifi as well.  Security passwords or no, wifi is hackable.  And with the matters at stake in a state capitol's computer network... well, it's better not to risk it.  Someone WOULD hack it. 

Though it does seem strange they wouldn't get a secondary connection to provide wifi.  Can't cost that much.

Sounds like an investigation needs done?/

I'm finally back home from my dogsitting duties at my parents. Very impressed with how Brandon kept the house upkeep. I usually come home to an atrocious mess.

My small dent in my fender and the more crooked bumper is gonna cost Nationwide close to 1200 to fix. They are gonna replace the fender, bumper, and brackets. My fog light on that side fell off the other day too. Drop my car off Monday morning and they are giving me a rental for a few days.

They have separate systems... the official "work/business" is conducted through a traditionally wired system. The wifi system is the free public wifi for the general public. This is what I log into and browse the web during slow times watching the entryways. And with session over there is alot of slow times.....And I am NOT complaining.
They finally got the wifi back up and running around lunch time..

No!  And Sir John, did you get the pic I sent to you a couple of days ago? I sent it by text and be email- I think. Maybe. If my phone and I understood each other, which is rare.

[Newsman]

Yes! But my cellphone wouldn't let me reply, and I had a combination of being sick and then having a very (temporary, Praise the Lord) concerning issue that prompted a quick drive to my foot specialist in Tulsa and generalsidetracking, it got away from me!

How is the Princess?

TGIF and I'm off next week!

[MelodyB]

It's a stormy Friday here.

[Kim]

Well,  I'm off school today, and was gonna go by Roscoe's last night to get the lawnmower so I could spend the day getting this jungle knocked down,  but he told me it was gonna rain really hard today.  So I opted out on stopping to get it.  Well, I woke up to sunshine---and now my husband has my truck at work, so going to get it now is out of the question.   Guess I'll learn to follow my own instincts.

[MelodyB]

And don't trust a short weatherman...heat always the last to know its raining.

[Heather]

Im currently proccessing cat xrays.  Its a wonderfully peaceful day at work. No step-brat or evil Heather (step-brats cousin who also makes life here terrible.) I have another dogsitting job tonight. Thinking of going to the town yard sale in Damascus tomorrow morning. Really dependant upon weather though. Its supposed to be a stormy weekend here.

[mini]

I found a Roscoe in Oklahoma!

[Lynx]

Complete with, apparently, a fascination for cars.  What is that car?

[mini]

It is our Roscoe and he got a ride in a corvette race car....

May must be the the month for me to go to the Hosp every day. Last year, I was there every day cause they cut dads leg off. This year it's Ann...she will likely be in there for another couple weeks, even after they take her off the ventilator. She is doing a bit better. I'm headed to drop dad off and go up and see her now.

Wonder who will be staying in the hospital next year in May that I will visit every day.

[Roscoe]

 Well. As a weatherman, I'm a good nurse apparently. I missed that call. Oh well. I got up yesterday to take Chey to school intending on staying around the house. However, SOMEONE  texted me about Corvettes, and a trackday that was the event I spoke of wanting to go to ( and had planned to go to for weeks).  I fired up the 'vette, which promptly threw a fit and locked up the smogpump. Shoulda been a clue....

Rusty had a full tank of gas, I had a complete day....and surely I could get back by 5:30 pm to go to the men's meeting that I really didn't want to go to...
Well, I made it to the raceway. Had a ball looking at the Corvettes, met Germ's friend and had an exhilirating ride in a very much nonestock 'vette, and even was offered the chance to drive it, which I turned down- I could see me wrecking or breaking it. Absolutely great time.
BUT- God ate my lunch. It became apparent to me about three hours in that I had grossly underestimated the time the trip would take. There was no way I was gonna get back for mens meeting. Since I had really not wanted to go to the meeting but wasgoing for other reasons, I felt bad convicted that I had put cars and my desires over spending time with God.
It whupped my hide. :sad:
And Rusty decided he didn't like cruising at 75 for three hours and let me know by letting his transmisson make weird noises. I'm thinking it has a bearing going out. Long story short, I sweated bullets over Rusty, fumed in traffic, and got home around 9 pm.
I'm sorry I was less sociable than normal with Germ, Rusty and God had me preoccupied. I cried half the way home...
All that aside, I enjoyed the race time and the brief time I got to spend with my brother. Next year I'm praying that a meeting is not scheduled on the same date as the rally/trackday, and I WILL have my 'vette running. Hopefully.

Quote for the day:  "Nobody's perfect... not even me.  You just know your faults better than you know mine, so you think you're worse than I am."

 I like that quote!

Are coloring books and crayons a good present for a 3 year old? I've been invited to a little girl from church's 3rd birthday party today and it's actually out in my neck of the woods. I know she likes Hello Kitty so I bought her a sweet Hello Kitty cup with a lid and straw on it. I went with coloring books and crayons because that girl draws on EVERYTHING that is paper. I hope it doesn't seem silly.....
