What is in the air?

I don't know about you folks but my week has been horrible. From things at work to things at home.........I am about to lose my mind! I love my job. Love it a lot. But there are some things going on that have been a bit challenging lately. It seems to be spilling over to my home life as well. I know everything will work out, it is just hard. I haven't posted in almost a week. I just don't have the energy. When I get home from work I change my clothes, grab a cold drink and the girls and I go up to see my sweet horse. I find such peace with animals. No one to bother me. Nothing to think about except nature and animals. I don't think it gets much better than that. Anyway, it works for me.

On the good side of things it looks like we might be able to see our Ohio grandbabies next month. They are planning on coming to town the weekend of the 4th and I can't wait. I have already asked for the Friday before the holiday off which means a 4 day weekend. Oh my.....4 days off and my precious grandkids here? Dare I say life gets any better? I hope everything works out like planned. I think we all need it.

Joe is feeling better. He has found out that since he has had chronic shingles for so long he has a knot of nerves in his kidney area that has caused huge pain for him. He is going to have the nerve blocked (it is the only treatment to relieve the pain) but the dr he is supposed to see is one of those that takes forever to get into. The good news is that at dinner tonight he knocked on wood then told Steph and I that he was on day 2 of being pain free. I immediately knocked on wood again! That wood is the dining room table. The same one I ate on as a kid.
