Merry Christmas

Well what a year. I just wanted to give you all an update on everything and share my holiday ecard/video with you.

Early this week the hubby was very sick he woke up on Tuesday very short of breath. I took him to the ER and they took him strait back to a room. His O2 level was at 72 for those of you that dont know what im talking about that is his oxygen level in his blood and its suppose to be well over 90. After 3 hours in the er 6 chest xrays and a cat scan they decided he had Pneumonia and had to keep him. 2 days he stayed in the hospital in wilkes. He is home and doing much better. Me well im still getting over my bronchitis. So we are sick together.

I wanted to tell everyone Merry Christmas and if i don't blog again a Happy New Year.

Life in genral

So i know if forgot to blog about my interview but its been a rough few weeks. I went to my interview and got the job and found out that Wendy is working up there now. I think she will be my boss type person hehe.

Lets see that was the week of Thanksgiving. I spend thanksgiving in ashe at the inlaws. It was nice though i missed my bed by about 2 am on wensday. The hubby had the day after off. It is nice to get to spend time with him when i can.

That weekend i started to cough not alot but enought to make me mad. With in 2 weeks i have bronchitis. I miss 2 weeks of school almost and nothing gets done on the paper. Still feel crappy but its starting to get better. Sucks not to be able to walk to class with out getting short of breath. Oh to add to that i have coughed so hard for the last few weeks i have pulled a muscle in my back. Yeah theres fun coughing and about dieing in pain.

Oh well life goes on.

Friday would have been my mothers bday. I cant tell you how old she would have been i dont remember how old she was. I know it would be in her 60's. I know most of my readers know i lost my mom when i was younger but I feel like this is a way for me to let it out for the holidays cause thats when its the hardest.

Mom got sick when i was a Freshman in high school. I was 14 we had just moved from Salt Lake to Tabiona we had been there maybe 3 weeks. I was having a hard time fitting in. I mean a small school where everyone has know everyone all their lifes its hard to find your place. I came home that afternoon to a note that said I took mom to Roosevelt to the ER will be home as soon as we can. Dad came home alone that night and told me that Dr were making her stay over night and she sent him home to be with me.

We did not know how bad it was until we got the call that night. They had life flighted mom to the U of U hospital in Salt Lake and need to meet her there. It was 2 hours to SLC no matter what way you took. It did not take that long that night. We got to the hospital and we were instructed to wait in the OR waiting room. We waited another 2 hours this has been 4 hours since we were called. When dad finally found someone that knew where she was they told him Mom had been asking about where we were. Her kidneys had shut down and the hosptial in Roosvelt did not have the equipment they needed.

Mom spent weeks there while they did test after test. They finally decided she had cancer. She only weighed 97 pounds when was ommited to the hopsital. She could not handle the cemo. The doctors delivered a big plow to us. She only had about 2 weeks to live. They sent her home to pass away with her family.

It was Dec 21 1995 when i went in and hugged my mom for the last time. I had a good friend that lost his mom at the same age. He was a Sr. in the high school and he kind of just took me under his wing. He told me to call him anytime i need anything. Dad told me to call him that i need to be with him. I remember my friend telling me about how he had just got in the shower and he had unplugged his phone the night before and something told him to go plug it back in. When he did i called. Dad told me that the door had no sooner slammed shut from leaving and mom past away. She waited for me to leave so i did have to go though that.

I miss her the most at this time of year. Christmas has been hard for me ever since. I love the holiday season and the hubby is such a care man when it comes to this time of year. I just miss her very much. It has been 12 years and the pain still comes around when i start doing my shopping. I am sorry if i have made anyone cry but this is my way of just letting it all out.

I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas and if i dont blog again a very Happy New Year. And thank you for being a friend to me :)
