Life is stressful right now. My dad has an infection in his blood and has been in the hospital for one week. Yesterday he was moved to the Select Care Hospital where he will stay until he can go home. He will continue to have IV antibiotics for six weeks. He is so week that he will also have to have physical therapy. He is where he needs to be and is getting the care he needs. But it is none the less stressful. I'm a worrier. It's what I seem to do best. He calls me his little mother! I've been spending every lunch hour with him at the hospital and sometimes going after work for a while too. Yesterday after he was moved to his new room, he seemed better. I hope God isn't sick of hearing from me!! The prayers lately have been constant!!
Work is insane. Our huge conference is March 23-24. I am not ready! I am really feeling the pressure, and yet, I am not in the mood to work. This is crazy! I go from thing to thing on my to do list and I cannot motivate myself to get any one thing done! I hate that about myself.
I cannot find my camera. This really upsets me. I think one of the "it wasn't me" ghosts that live in my house "borrowed" it. But of course, they say they didn't. My things seem to disappear. For instance, yesterday I had my make up concealer and today I don't. Have you ever seen make up walk out of the bathroom? My two darlings both said "I don't have it - I didn't take it". Gee, do you think Greg needed some make up? Me either. Anyway, tonights mission will be tearing the house apart looking for the camera. I will cry if it is gone. Cry huge crocodile tears.
At least the temperature outside is nice! It was 55 when I left the house this morning. I could get used to that!
I've been crafty every evening this week. It really helps me to relax. I made about 40 thank you cards for my friend Susan who is fighting breast cancer. I was thrilled that she asked me to do this for her. Right up my alley!!! And I've also been in the beading mood. Two nights ago I tried my hand at a wire wrapped ring. It isn't perfect and I want to play more with it. I made the first one too big. Back to the drawing board - but I love the "idea" of it. I just need to perfect it. And last night I made a necklace. So different than anything I've made - kind of a cluster of beads. Just LOVE it! I see many more of these with very cool beads in my future!
Any American Idol Fans? I'm thrilled that Matt Giraud made it! Our Kalamazoo boy did us proud last night! It was very exciting! I think I'd better try to focus on my work. Before I know it, it will be lunch time and I'll be headed to the hospital for my Young and Restless visit with daddy!
