This is the day...

that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it! Amen! I say this every time I get out of bed. I've got so much to be thankful for. I've got a roof over my head a husband who works hard and much, much more! I'm thankful just to be able to get out of bed every morning because there are many people who can't. I'm really thankful for the warm weather we are starting to get. I'm glad winter is behind us. Aren't you?

I've had a pretty good week this past week. I got another scrapbook page done in Michayla's scrapbook. I'm so slow at scrapbooking because I have to really work at being creative,plus I'm working 40+ hours a week. But I must say the pages are pretty good! I think I'm hooked on scrapbooking. Every time I see a coupon for Joann Fabric's or Michael's craft stores, I cringe, because I know I will just have to use it on one more scrapbook item. I get them in the mail, there in the Sunday newspaper. They seem to be everywhere. I should start getting coupons for Archiver's soon. (Ugh, another coupon). I went through all of my scrapbook tools, stickers,embellishments etc. yesterday and got them all organized. I labeled all the drawers. I bought an over the door student dorm organizer on clearance at Kohl's awhile back just for the purpose of organizing my scrapbook tools in it. It work's pretty good. I put a punch or two in each pocket and labeled each pocket as to which punch is in what pocket to make them easy to find. We'll see how long I keep it organized.

I've dropped out of TOPS and I am going to focus more on exercise. I went back to aerobics on Friday and I took two walks yesterday. I've noticed I sleep better when I exercise. TOPS hasn't been working for me for a couple of years. At work, Cheryl has organized The Biggest Loser GMG Boot Camp. It starts on April 1st and runs for 6 weeks. Several people have signed up to do it. She weighs everyone in once a week and she leads a walk one of the days of the week during our lunch hours and I will lead a walk on another lunch hour. They will be only 20 minute walks, but its a way to help people get motivated.

Yesterday was a really good day! I talked to Erica for quite awhile on the phone and I talked to SallyRose in the afternoon on the phone until she had to go get Allyson from climbing. I'm glad I'm still getting phone calls from all of you and these blogs are not our main source of communication. See, I just said something else I'm thankful for!

The one sad thing that happened this past week was one of my favorite patients went into cardiac arrest and last I heard he was on life support. He was coming in everyday for B12 injections because he has anemia. The last thing he told me was he was going to a specialist to have his throat looked at for Cancer. I told him I would pray for him.The next day his brother called me and told me the sad news. It brought tears to my eyes.

Well, I gotta go. I'm going to start my exercise blog to see if that will help me stay on track. Love you all!
