Truths About Friends...

This much I know is true about friends... "Friends" is used much too loosely in our culture; "Best Friends" don't have to label themselves as such... they just are, they know it & don't have to advertise it; You can have more than one "best friend" with each one being the best at what he/she does in your life; a Friend calls when her Daddy dies so you can be there to cry with her & hold her hand; a Dog is a girls "best Friend", too; your spouse should be your best Friend & mine is; when people say "BFF" or "Best Friends Forever" sometimes forever is pretty short; Jesus is also my BEST FRIEND & He says "BFFE" - Best Friends For Eternity & His eternity is a hell of a lot longer than some peoples forever. I love my friends.

Updates aren't always fun...

I went to the doctor on Wednesday. Good news and bad... my anemia is resolving nicely but I am extended off of work until the 3rd because they still don't know why I lost so much blood & where I lost it. The doctor found some masses in my stomach. He casually tells me "Of course it could be cancer" but probably not since I don't have a sudden weight loss. His other line of thinking is that they are ulcers that have become encapsulated so... full torso CT scan & a colonoscopy for me! Sounds like a blast!

The other problem is my fasting blood sugar was 155. Hopefully it was a lab error or just a fluke (I have been known to eat without realizing it so maybe I wasn't really fasting). I fasted for 12 hours yesterday and he had my labs redrawn. Please pray that I am not diabetic!

I just finished my first Zumba workout. Dear Lord in Heaven & Earth I thought I was gonna die... and I did the short version. Thank God cancer isn't taking off the weight & I have plateaued so it's time to get moving. I'd like to loose 25 more pounds (I've lost 40 since the 1st of the year) so now I have to get my but moving. Especially if I am diabetic.

Last Sunday we celebrated Duck's Sobriety Birthday... 20 years clean & sober. Sunday the 1st I will have 10 years clean & sober. He got me more ink for my birthday & anniversary. He paid for all my background work to be done on my sleeves. Today I have an appointment at 11 am to start filling in the flowers. This is the meat & potatoes. I've been waiting a long time for this. I'll post pictures soon.

I went out with the girls the other night. We had so much fun. We went to Chevy's for happyhour then we went BOWLING! I suck at bowling but they do too so we ended up having a blast! I'm ready to do it again girls!

Jesse just got home from spending a week at my parent's house. She's with Ben this weekend and next then school starts. She's so proud off her job. She bought all her school clothes and supplies (except what my mom got her). I'm so proud of her too. 13 years old and working a job and learning to support herself and saving $ in a savings account. Good for her!

Jesse's gone this weekend, Duck's taking some alone time on the bike & doing an overnighter and the bike. I shoot a wedding all day Saturday & Sunday I get the whole day to myself. My favorite book PILLARS OF THE EARTH was just released as a mini-series on Net Flix so I think I'll spend Sunday watching that.

Not much else to share... I'll post pix soon. Hope you all have a great weekend.
