"I had a bibopsy. . . yes, it was my twin. . . "

So I have four moles (I HATE the word "mole") that are going to be removed and bibopsied! (lol) I love that movie. I've had them for years so I'm not worried. It's kind of exciting (?). I've never had anything wrong. I almost like the attention (???). I'm very messed up. :-)

Today is a gorgeous day outside and I got to eat lunch with my husband outside and it was so nice. :) We had a lot to talk about and the time went by so fast so now I'm at home waiting for him so we can watch American Idol.

I've been working a lot lately. I worked Sunday at BUMC, yesterday an extra shift at Plano, W, TH, FR this week at Plano and then again at BUMC on Sunday. I cannot wait for the vacation!! I'm going to keep low after that. Maybe even call in a few days sick when I'm not sick! :-) June is a busy month, as well. Michael's party, Samuel's party, Erin in town for P3's party, Destin, baby shower. . . and somehow I was elected Secretary to our hospital's chapter of AACN. I wasn't even at the meeting!!! lol. Oh well. Things like that just happen sometimes. I think I'll like it. I've wanted to be involved with this hospital and I think I am making some improvements there regarding balloon pump maintenance, tube feed protocol, end of life care. It's exciting being at a new hospital and they love hearing your experiences and how you do things a certain way. I'm really throwing myself into this b/c I think this will be my home for the next several years so I might as well influence nursing practice while I can!

I'm really hoping my good friend Candiso will come home at the end of June!! (::hint,hint::) Adam and I want to go shooting with her. Ooh! Maybe a trip to Hamilton to shoot the tommy gun? We shall see. :)

I guess that's it for now. Ooh, ooh! I did find a camera with a battery in it! Now just to find the chord that connects the camera to the computer. So long!

I'm nursing, right?!!?!

A while back, Adam decided he wanted to do Weight Watchers. I didn't qualify to participate but I did in my own way to support Adam. I looked at the handout they gave and it said "nursing- add 8 points." "Amazing!" I thought. I'm on my feet all day as a nurse, so this totally makes sense!

Today I found out that I'm terribly, terribly blonde. "Nursing" meant you were breast feeding. How was I to know??? This made for a very big laugh at the Mother's Day dinner tonight with the Hedgpeths. :-D LOL

I was also going to write something about the gay marriage debate but I don't want to detract from the hilarity of this story. So I leave you with the thought that not only did I mistake nursing meaning my occupation, I totally didn't even think about oil rig workers or those who do heavy duty lifting making the WW list. . . . only nurses got the distinction. ::halo::

No gardening bliss for me

When we got our house, I planted some flowers in the front flower bed. They were bright green and hot pink and I loved them. It was a good experience. They died over the winter which was expected. I was excited for the weather to get nice again so I could plant more. I planted probably three weeks ago some yellow and red flowers. Thanks to Texas weather and the torrential downpours we've had, the yellow flowers are completely washed off the stem. I have just stems and roots left. The red ones held up. Sadness. Do I plant again? Do I put my heart out on the line again only to have the feelings washed away?!?!? (lol) ::sigh:: I guess we'll just wait and see. . . I do have about $10 left on a home depot gift card. . .

On another plant note, we have two house plants in the living room. One has very large palm like leaves. The ones at the bottom are dying and I don't know why. The ones that stand tall are fine. Am I not watering enough? I water every two days or so. Thoughts? Musings?

On a decorating note, I am finally feeling a little complete with the living room!! I was at Michaels one day looking for a sacred train cookie cutter (hee hee) and didn't find one but saw that Kirklands was having a sale next door so I went in. I usually don't shop there b/c it's overpriced sometimes. I found the best art for the mantel and it was $40!! It's a 36" x 36" with colors that match the room and three red poppies in the middle which I was wanting something with poppies!! Yaaaay. It made me very happy. And then made even more happy that Adam liked it when he got home. :-) Sometimes we have different taste but he's liked everything else I've gotten so far. Sweet.

Having lunch with Shelley today. Cleaning otherwise. So long for now. :)

Oh Oh! I forgot to post this. Adam told me to. lol. So Adam and I don't agree on names that often. No we're not pregnant and we won't be for a while but we still talk about names. I like "Evie, Joy, Jill, Ruth" and some others for girls. He likes "Raven" for a girl. We're obviously not on the same page!! haha. :)

So we were driving the other night and he goes "I like Maggie." Me: "I like Maggie too!!" So we're posting it here so no one steals the one name we've agreed on. :-)

Lazy Sunday

So I woke up this morning and I have a random thought: I'm not mad at my mom. I can't be mad at her for the way I was raised. . . I was built a tree house, I was cared for, I had clothes. I didn't get paid a ton of attention but that's not to much to complain about. Now, granted, advance ten years and the story changes but I'm somehow at peace with the fact that I am not mad at the way I was raised. Glory be.

Texas weather decided to pee on my weekend. We were supposed to go to Scarborough Faire with the girls, but the plan got rained out. I'm hoping next weekend will be better. Maybe Annie and Michael want to go? Eh? Eh? Any takers?

I ran out of invitations quickly for Erin's shower. That girl knows a lot of people! But I don't care. It just means more presents for her and I'm totally okay with that!!! :)

Currently I am watching the Mavs get stomped on. Booo. Courtney out.

Oooh wait, wait! Two more things:

1. Destin is in a month!!!!
2. I just sent my resignation to Baylor downtown and happy with the move!
