Pink Flamingo on Toast

I'm going nuts! I've already voted (Yes, this Registered Republican voted for Barack Obama! I also voted NO! to #2 ) and now I have to wait. I'm overloaded on videos, commentaries and websites. I need to stop this Election Obsession. I can't ever remember being this involved in an election. If I remember right the last two elections I didn't really care about the candidates. I voted the lesser of the two evils...boy..that was a mistake. Now I care and I'm anxious. It's not like the world will end if my candidate doesn't win, although I can't see a bright future any other way. OK ok ...enough...I need to go watch The Daily Show and The Colbert Report on TiVo

I haven't been updating as much as there isn't much going on other than work, and medical drama. I wish I had good news but over all things are still hectic. MIL has pneumonia and is doing a little better although today she fell out of bed. My dad was told last week that he has a tumor in his bladder and they will be taking care of that after he and my mother travel to Texas to visit both my Sister and brother. He also had some squamous cells removed from the side of his face. He had a long stitch line and was calling himself FranClemstein. (last name is Clemens and he has been called Clem his whole life) At least he can laugh about it. Work is going well. Each day I'm getting more and more comfortable with the interpreter role and not over stepping the boundaries. It's hard not to teach. Jerry and I did go to the movies Friday night. We saw "W." It was interesting. I didn't have much knowledge of President Bush's life. The movie really ...

Happy Anniversary Jerry , I love you!

Jerry's mom was taken to the ER after complaining of shortness of breath and some tightness in the chest. She has a history of heart issues so we didn't want to play around with the nursing/rehab home. They agreed and got her over to ER within an hour. She then spent EIGHT hours in the ER. I can't even begin to express how upset that anyone would have to spend that much time in there. They told us after 2 hours that she was going to be admitted and it took them 6 to get a room? Come on?!? We're hoping that they caught the fluid around her heart in time and that she isn't in danger of any heart attacks. Prayers would be appreciated. Jerry and I are exhausted. We are going on month 5 of dealing with hospitals/nursing homes/rehab centers of some kind. UNCLE!!

A heartbeat away? SCARY!
