hello, I have not blogged in it seems like forever. This site is my other life, and i enjoy it every much. Real life, has kept me away more than i would like. My job for one although I like what I do, they kept me working, and working, and working. Not even time off on<b> weekends.

</font></b>I started looking for another job, when they decided to mess with my PTO time for my vegas trip. Well, the new job hunt is at a halt as well. It seems that my orthopedist wants to replace my knee sooner than later like planned. Yes, a knee replacement. Some of you went through the hip with me 3 years ago around this same time. Well, you are about to go through the knee this time. Blogging daily got me through that, and it will get me through this.

The thing is, it takes something like this to make me stop and take a break. for some reason, I always feel an obligation to my employer at the time, even if they don't me. In fact, there has been some issues now that they know I have arthritis in the knee. I have been working like this for the passed year with the pain and swelling, and all of a sudden, they don't think I can work. Thank God, my doc set them straight.

Anyway, I am off work at the moment, because they are goof balls. I have a total return to work order, which they made me get from the doc, even though he never put me down. All that shit will work out with the company however it does.

The good thing about all this is, i do have great insurance, my doc is in place, whom i trust. I have people planning on me living with them because i have no family or significant other here. I actually can get my ducks in a row before surgery.

What a way to take time off of work. Nothing is keeping me from doing anything. just a lil pain. I can live with that until the surgery. Lots of playtime is what I am thinking. I feel like I have been deprived lately anyway.

Got the trip to Vegas coming up, yea. maybe I should call my friend in California and tell him i need a mini vacation. and, the roof needs to be fixed, and ohhhh so many things to do.

Have a great rainy day, a day meant for all people's to be in bed.

Enjoy the ride searching for what you want here.............thegrls

    Quoting mcmaniac:
    Good for you! I actually took a vacation 3 years ago, my 1st in 17 years. I took off Weds, Thurs, Friday, and Saturday. Sunday and Mondays are my regular days off. When I came back to work on Tuesday, before I had even opened the doors a customer came by to chew my ass. All my relaxed feelings were gone.
yea, the only thing is, this is more like a forced vacation, but i will take it. sometimes things need to happen for us to make changes.........thegrls
