I totally left y'all hanging with Sadie's story.
She had the surgery, did fantastic! Only a couple weeks afterwards she was completely deaf. 😥 We have gotten used to it, kinda sorta... We still talk to her like she can hear, and I find myself calling her & then wanna smack myself. She is still my sweet girl, and I love her with all my heart. ❤️ she has been doing great, we started a new treatment regimen with ASA & glucosamine, changed her food & treats. Her arthritis is much better, although she still has rough days. The poor girl doesn't ever leave the house or backyard without a leash now though, which probably sucks for her. But I am a teensy bit overprotective of all my babies.
Ok, that's your Sadie update. What's next? Oh, the new job. Love it! I am about 5 months in & still totally love it! I love that I can totally be rocking my Resting Bitchy Face on the phone & I don't have anyone asking me if I'm angry. Lol... If they did I would just close the door & that's that.
I seriously love my new coworkers, including the best OB/GYN's ever! (Except of course Dr. Meadows, Dr. Rush & Dr. Hinds, love y'all to the moon & back too) I of course miss NICU, it is still in my heart, my hands still itch to catch a newborn, save a baby, hell at this point feed a screaming withdrawal baby!
Don't even get me started about dying to start an IV! I do miss my babies, and my peeps from Brack, Dell & of course CP!
But my job is perfect for me & my family now. I have so much more time with the fam, although it really sucks having to go grocery shopping with everyone else in the world now. And I haven't had the free time or availability to spend time with my BFF...❤️ you Nicole! Thank God she doesn't get mad that we haven't seen each other in forever. But we will, soon.
Other than that part, I am still learning every day new things about "big people" and insurance & making appts...etc...
But I am lucky to work with great people who have cut me slack when I made a stupid mistake. And, would you believe I'm nervous giving IM's? Of course I did it almost daily for years with the babes, but these big people, oh hellfire! But I keep doing it, and every time I successfully take a manual BP & pretty much do anything else with an adult, I feel like Supergirl! Yay me! So, long story short, I love my job!
Ok, so would you believe that I had forgotten to download the blogger app to my new phone? And then of course could not remember for the life of me what my login or password was.
Of course you believe it, cuz you all know that I forget extremely too much!
No wonder I have felt like a teapot whistling...I haven't been able to purge all my crazy thoughts & emotions.
Awesome, right? 😉
I have already completed 1 class since October 1...I am hoping to knock out this Nutrition class by the end of next week! Crossing my fingers! I'm also working on my Community Health project, so if you see me, I'll probably try to interview you so I can count it towards my 90 hours of interviews/classes/meetings for Breastfeeding Promotion. You are only safe if you are a man...no wait, you are only safe if you are a man who is not an OB/GYN! Fun times.
Out here at the 4J, life goes on... I still have plants producing :) & hope to keep some going (for real this year) in the greenhouse this winter. We still have tomatoes, cukes, peppers, beans, and of course strawberries...oh yes, I have a cute beAutiful little Black Diamond watermelon still growing. Yay!
My crazy ass husband and child are still swimming! It's the middle of October!! We do not have a heated pool, and I don't so much as put my toes in if it's less than 80, let alone in the 70's! I guess I can say she gets it from her daddy.
She must get her super sweet nature from mommy...well...
I was asking her to be patient this evening while making her a grilled cheese & she said, "mommy, how can I be patient? You and grandma don't have patience, why would I?"
For reals! With a serious face! Do you know how hard it was to not laugh? Well, pretty damn hard I guess, because I laughed my ass off, lol. From the mouths of babes!
So, into other things, I am looking forward to football Sunday! Can I get an amen? So, hear my battle cry... Woo hoo Broncos! Let's kick some butt!...Go Pack Go!!...and yay G-men!!!
Yay football! #ManningBoysTotallyRock!!
And with that I will leave you. I've been outside enjoying a fire in our completely-contained-firepit...and Maddie just came back out to hang with mommy! Goof night my friends! May you have sweet dreams! ❤️
