Doctors, Another Funeral, and Interviews...

Ok ok...so it's been the week before T-giving since I've posted anything! I know...too damn long, right? Well, here goes nothing...

I did go back to the doc for that follow up visit, in which she stated that my thyroid was very "out of whack", which that's no surprise to me. Yet, it was still too early to tell if the dose she put me on helped any. I have a physical coming up in January, and maybe we can tell a little more then. Oh, and speaking of that, I just got a letter in the mail the other day stating that my primary physician would no longer be practicing there...he is going into Hospice and Palliative care. That sucks, b/c we had finally found a doc that would actually listen to us and learned our ways and such and now we have to re-establish with another doc. I commend him for the career change, but it still sucks that he'll no longer be my doc. I'll miss "sunshine"...that's what I called him, as he called me "lil bear"; thanks largely in part to mama! As for the rheumatologist, I don't see her again for 6 months. And we'll see then how that goes and how things are improving or not improving.

Yes, it does say another funeral...a woman that our family has known for as long as I can remember passed away the week after T-giving. She was my maternal grandmother's best friend and considered an "aunt" to me. Though we knew it would only be a matter of time once Hospice was called in, it was still a bit hard to take. The visitation and the funeral itself was beautiful. She will be missed.

Do you recall in my last post I referred to possibly looking around for another job?? Well, I had found a posting in the newspaper for a position and applied. Last Friday, I got the call for an interview. So, this past Tues. Dec 9, I went for that interview. I think it went really well, but I'm not getting my hopes up too high so as to set myself up for disappointment if I don't land this one. They told me they would call me within a week or so to let me know, due to them having another interview or 2. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I do get it, b/c I think I would be a great fit for this company. It's an independent drug store, however, they don't deal directly with the public on a large basis. They do mostly Hospice medications and compounding. I'm excited at the possibility of going to work for this company. Possibly a little less stress since I wouldn't be dealing with the public on a large basis. We'll see.

I haven't mentioned anything to PG Drug yet, b/c I don't know if I have this job. If I get it, then I will let them know. But until then, I can't burn that bridge just in case.

I'm working on getting our Christmas cards mailed this weekend or first of next week so that hopefully they'll reach everyone before Christmas. If you want one, and know I don't have your address or what-not, send me a note here with your address and I'll send ya one! Some of you that read this (T) I don't have an address for.

Ok, I think this one is long enough...please, hang around though and listen to my christmas music. I love christmas music and have put together an awesome play list for your enjoyment!!
