It's been a while..

It's been a while since I last posted. This is my first one for 2008.

Here's what's been going on:

1) My aunt passed away on 12/18. She was my dad's sister and always had a kind word

2) My b-day was 12/19. I went to supper with friends. I got the movies Superbad and Knocked up from my dh. I've seen Superbad about 10 times so far. It makes me laugh everytime. "I am McLovin'!"

3) Sydney (our cat) has been sick. She ended up having surgery on Wednesday. They didn't really find anything. She's been having bladder problems. We got her back on Friday and now I have to give her a pill everyday for seven days. Last time she was on medicine, we crushed it up and put it in her food. It didn't really work very well and I ended up taking her to my in-laws when I went home for Christmas. It was a cluster to say the least. When I picked Sydney up on Friday, I had them show me how to give her a pill. It's not fun. Saturday morning was horrible. Long, long story - I may share later. I have her the 2nd pill a little while ago. It went better but it was still awful. I was crying the whole time. My dh has been supportive. He's just glad he doesn't have to do it. 2 down, 5 more to go.

4) I went to a scrapbook weekend. I started my nephew's album that he will get when he graduates in May. I've been putting it off because I've been so nervous about doing it. What if my sister doesn't like it, what if it's not what she wanted. I know that she's going to love whatever I do, but I'm still nervous about it. I got a good start on it and I'm not as nervous as I was. I think I'll work on it a little bit later.

5) Work is busy. Fun, but busy. It's just going to get worse, but that's okay...I don't mind.

6) I'm on a bowling team. We started one at work. We bowl Thursday nights at 9:30p, so it's late when I get home. I don't mind, it's fun and I bowl with people I don't normally get a hang out with. (Except my boss). I don't have to worry about drinking too much because bowling with my boss is like bowling with my mom :-) I did pretty good for me - 110, 125, 125. We'll see how I do next week.

7) New Year's Eve was fun. Me, dh and Francine went out for supper and then Francine and I went to casino to meet up with a friend. This friend and her dh were hanging out with some people in the fancy bar - you know, the one for high rollers - where you don't have to pay for your drinks - and they got me and Francine in. We had a few beers and were back to my house by 11pm. We watched Knocked Up and rang in the New Year. It was nice and relaxing.

Hopefully I'll be keeping up on this a little better. I like to do this and I'm sure if I would have took the time to do this over the last few weeks, I wouldn't have got as stressed out as I did.
