I must apologize for the fact that it has been over a month since I last posted.  I seem to be struggling with a case of “blog writer’s block”.  So, I will just tell you what has been going on in my life.

School is going well, I am into the third week of my second semester.  I have changed my course of study from Business Administration to Medical Office Administration (MOA).  After one semester of accounting, I decided that I definitely could NOT see myself doing that for the rest of my life!  I never have been a number’s person, but, since it was recommended by my admissions counselor, I thought I’d give it a shot.  So now I am studying what I originally went to the college to inquire about and I love it!  I have always been interested in the medical side of things, I was a nursing student back in 1986, but never finished because life happened.

Hmm what else. Oh, today we are having a birthday party bar b que for my husband’s 42nd birthday at my daughter’s new apartment, sort of a combination birthday party/apartment warming I guess.  My husband, me, my son and his wife, my daughter and the “date d’jour” and my granddaughter, my ex and his girlfriend (yes, you read that right) will all be there.  Actually, it was my ex husband’s idea for us to have a birthday get together for my husband.  He and I have stayed friends for the 18 years since our divorce.  I’m glad he is still in my life because it was good for the kids as they were growing up, to see us on friendly terms and it’s good for my granddaughter now.  My current husband had a tough time with it at first, but now, after eight years of marriage, he realizes that there is nothing between us but an enduring friendship, he is still like family to me and always will be.

As for my health, I am trying desperately to get my diabetes under control, it seems like the older I get, the harder it is.  The hyperthyroidism is much better, my doctor is happy with my numbers there.  The Rheumatoid Arthritis is mostly at bay, only my left had is giving me trouble, nothing a little ibuprofen and vicodin can’t help for now.

I guess that’s it for now.  I’ll try to make a more interesting post later this week.  Hope it’s a good one for you all!  Cheers!
