What's Happening In My Part Of The Woods

Greetings! I haven't blogged for so long. Nothing really has been going on. I am managing the salon and think I have some great hairdressers working for me. I am pleased. I am in the process of hiring one more for the week ends because we are so busy. I am not looking forward to this coming weekend. It seems like I stand so long and my feet get so sore. People bug me too. I am turning into a hermit. I don't like that feeling.
I am going to be getting my surgery probably in March. I have gone through the screening and process that they require. I just have to meet with the doctor and then they will schedule the surgery. I am getting a little nervous, however I am excited. I hope to be able to drop my weight soon, and get healthy. It's pretty sad that I have to do it this way, but my lifestyle is so hard right now. Just pray for me. I will keep you updated. Love you all.

A Brand New Year!!

Change is everywhere and I am so glad that we have a new year ahead of us. I am so thankful that I made it through the holidays and that we are making new year resolutions. I am going to be going to be having surgery soon and I will emerged hopefully a better healthier person. I am looking forward to that, because I feel so bad at times. I work really hard and my bones and joints are hurting. Sarah is learning her guitar so well. She has taught herself the chords and I am so proud. She can play almost anything. It is truly amazing. Andrew is having a birthday this week and I am so proud of the young man he has become. He is so friendly and kind and it is back to school for both of them. It is kind of sad because their winter break went by too fast. Winter has hit with a vengence and I am so not liking the cold. I want it to melt fast. My manager job is going great. We got rid of all the bad stylists and now we have a pretty good team. I am pretty happy with the people we have. Some times it is hard to be objective with their ideas, but all in all they are good. The dogs are sad because they are not getting their daily walks. It is much too cold and dangerous for us to walk on the streets that are not plowed. They have to understand. One of my best friends was killed last year because she was hit by a car. I just learned today that the crossing guard at Andrew's school ( and a uncle of a woman in my ward) was hit by a car 2 weeks ago and was in the hospital for 1 week and died on the 1st. It is so sad. The guy that hit him is not doing so good, he blames himself and he can't function. So the streets can be dangerous. I hope and pray for that poor person. Accidents do happen. It is all so tragic. Well, not to end on a bad note, I want to have a good year and to be productive. I love my life and the blessings I do have. My family is so great to me.
