I had an accident night-before-last. I was putting stuff away in my new office on a bookshelf that Hubby had not secured to the wall yet, as he was letting his drill battery charge. He told me NOT to load it, but I did anyway. After I had it entirely loaded (this thing is taller than me), I had my back turned to it and it fell over on top of me. I have horizontal bruises down my back and hips and my back has been hurting ever since. Women! Why are we so hardheaded? ::giggle:: At least, I am alive to tell the tale. I am thankful for that.
I have been unable to walk properly for about a week without limping. My leg is feeling much better today so the prayers are working! Keep up the good work!
I am still fighting to keep my job. Yes, I am the one who quit, but I didn't feel like I had any choice.
My boss said I never submitted anything to her concerning my medical condition, but I did. I was working extra hours to help out because we are shorthanded per her request and she wants to write me up because I wasn't working the 8-hour schedule she asked me to work when I am classified parttime through the hospital? They wanted to write me up for forgetting to clock in/out sometimes. Hello? I told her I was having cognitive issues like forgetfulness, memory loss, and concentration problems. I refuse to be written up for something I cannot help. She even wrote me up for not attending a meeting (a meeting where she intended to write me up for forgetting to clock in). I got the time mixed up. Without my job, I have no insurance. Without insurance, I cannot afford the medications I need. I have to have the meds for hypothyroidism, as does my husband. Without them, all sorts of things can go wrong because your thyroid regulates a lot of different things in your body. We need a miracle here, but I believe in miracles!~
I received some sad news that my friend, Marlo, is not doing well. She has cancer. Marlo has been an inspiration to many. Her unwavering faith in God has helped many of us. I would ask that you keep her in your prayers and her husband Carson also. They are building a new house on top of dealing with her illness. Please keep this very courageous lady in your prayers. In every email Marlo sends, she always has this scripture:
John 11:4 When he heard this, Jesus said, "This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God's glory so that God's Son may be glorified through it."

We women really are, as my husband would say, bull-headed. LOL
Glad you are okay. Praying about your job, son, and your friend.
Happy New Year, hon.

Have you ever seen those V-8 commercials where the people get bonked in the head? Thats what I feel like doing to you! LOL! Glad you aren't hurt! I think your boss is being unfair and discriminatory. Can you apply for a government health insurance program? Linda

Girl, sometimes we really should listen to our husbands! ;o) Thankful you weren't more seriously hurt. Remaining in prayer for you and your needs. - Barbara
Ouch!!! I hate when I do stuff like that. The bruises hurt less than knowing you could have avoided the whole thing, but making the choice to dive right in.

Whew, I've survived a few of those accidents myself, so welcome to the Club! Watch yourself now, it tends to propagate itself and you'll have things flying all over!
I hope that things work out with the job, and that they get a handle on what's really ailing you. Take care, and Happy New Year.
Jimmy
oh, and...DUCK!
ouch, Susan! I am glad you didn't get "too" hurt but it sounds icky anyway; glad your leg is feeling better; you do need to keep on your thyroid medicine! Can you go generic? I know you have to be careful with generics and thyroid meds, but it might be a temporary solution.
wishing you an awesome new year!
betty
Ouch, I know that hurt....please take care of yourself...many hugs and love....today has not been my day...hugs and love,
