Sometimes you're forced to slow down.
Last week, the doctors found a blood clot in my right shoulder which caused my arm to swell up and turn dark purple. After several days in the hospital, they decided to send me home. Now, I must wait. Yep, that's it...wait.
Apparently, blood thinners take time to work their magic, so I am required to stay away from work and life as a whole until my blood levels are considered "therapeutic."
Things I've learned while sitting on my butt:
Nothing good is on TV during the weekends
Infomercials are hypnotic
The crown moulding in my living room is starting to crack because the house continues to settle
You can only read a magazine once
Pain in your shoulder will begin to appear if you hold your arm in one position too long
Feeling helpless stinks
I'll continue to wait.

nothing better than a good belly laugh
About Me
- Laughter is Medicine...
- If you know me, you know that one of my talents is the ability to laugh at just about anything. I've often pondered over the power of laughter...its ability to brighten someone's day, get you through a difficult trial, or even build trust with someone you've just met. For that reason, I've learned to accept the fact that my loud (i mean loud) and boisterous laugh is medicine for the soul...especially mine.

Kare Bear!! I was so sad to hear about your arm ballooning in the teacher's lounge during lunch last week. It must have been a sight. In all seriousness, I hope that all turns out OK. We had brunch without you, sad but true. I sure missed your visit to MN, but hopefully you can come again real soon. Take care and keep us posted.
