About Me

I've realized that checking out and taking the "easy" road has darn near killed me. This is me showing up, checking in, and attempting to undo the damage I've done.

What a week!

Last week was an interesting week. It started off challenging as I knew it would. It's year end and with that comes the dreaded year end inventory count. That went as expected. Faster than anticipated the push to get production up sooner than I was ready for. I'm having surgery next week and I figured the invetory issues would be a factor in this because I am having blood pressure issues. Inventory is stressful however I had an unexpected wrench thrown into the mix - hives. Not just a few hives but I have hives from head to toe. I'm not sure how that is going to effect my upcoming surgery on Thursday but I'm beginning to think it's not in the cards. It's been delayed once already and then the unexpected blood pressure problems when my blood pressure was always normal before. I felt a cold coming on so I thought that might delay the surgery and then the most unexpected thing of all the hives. I've never had them before. I wouldn't wish hives on anyone. I've never had chicken pox but I would imagine that they are similar to hives in that they are both extremely itchy.

You would think after the week I just had I'd still be in my weird mood but suprisingly I'm in a pretty good mood. I'm not worry about whether the surgery is still happening because truth be told I'd prefer that it didn't happen. I know I shouldn't think this way because it is going to cost me so much more  next year but it's the holiday's and I really can't enjoy them with this surgery looming. My gallbladder really isn't an issue right now so that is another reason I'm not looking forward to causing pain that I don't currently have. I know the doctor says it's better to do it now before it turns into an emergency and cost me even more in terms of money and time in the hospital and missed work.

I need to have a good productive week. This is my goal for the week. Surgery or no surgery.
