Winner of the Book Giveaway!!

The winner of the book giveaway is.... drumroll..............................................................

Christine!!!!!
Congrats! Please email me your info so I can get the book out to you! angelsdream76 @ yahoo . com . Just shoot me an email please.



This week has been hectic! Oh my God is all I can say! I finished with my last class for this term, Behaviorial Health, a combination of psychology, sociology and anthropology. My last paper came back as passing on Tuesday! What a sweet relief it is. Next term starts in May. I just have to decide which classes I want to take. No Math, please no Math.

Things are not so good at my husband's work. In fact they just outright suck booty!! He's worked there for 6 years. Hasn't gotten a raise in almost 4 years. He is the jack of all trades in this company. He gets called at 3 in the morning to take care of things, is the first one to volunter to do maintanence windows, swapped positions recently just so they could keep 2 people without firing anybody. It just seems like they are taking advantage of him. Somethings that recently happened are seriously having him considering openly searching for another job.

Oh well... it's just life....

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. Congrats again to the winner.

Stay tuned for another giveaway.

And She Returns

And she's back...... Just in time for Christmas and the New Year.

I've been dealing with some really intense health issues. I quit smoking back in Feb. and have not had one since then..... but I guess that just wasn't good enough.

I went to the hospital a few weeks ago with chest pains and feeling short of breathe. After a chest X-ray and a CT scan, and a visit to a pulmonologist, I found out I have COPD and emphysema. I'm going through a lot of adjustment right now. Dealing with finding out about this condition, we moved to a house with fewer steps. Stairs had been a struggle for me lately. I would get half way up and feel like I was drowning. And just with anything health related, it is really scary.

Compound that with being very homesick. I've slowly been missing my Mississippi roots. I really thought I could just go for visits and be fine. But it's not fine. I miss seeing my family and I want to see my old friends and catch up. I miss warm winters (warmer that what we have here) and just all the familiarity of my surroundings. I really pray that either the company my husband works for decided to open an office in MS or he finds a job there. Wishful thinking on my part I know.

Just if you can please keep us in your prayers.
