*opens crypt and crawls out*
It's true. I'm still alive! It's shocking that me of all people could neglect my blog for so long, but I have. I just haven't really felt like writing about anything lately and haven't had much to say.
I don't have anything interesting to say now either but I figured I should probably update.
Well.... I think a wisdom tooth is coming in. Which scares me! I'm a big baby and hear that wisdom tooth removal is not a stroll in the park. I'm also very picky and refuse to go to anyone but Dr. Wolff despite having lost my job there a year and a half ago. And though professionally, he's the best general dentist a person can get, he's not a specialist and can't always pull wisdom teeth. And with my uber tiny mouth, I have a feeling he'll send me to a specialist. Which is lametarded.
In other news, my xbox 360 is sick. Every now and then the ring goes like 75 percent red. So I take out the power cord for a second and then plug it back in and then all is well. I fear it will eventually just die soon though. I have a warranty and all but it's such a pain in the butt getting a replacement. I had to wait 6 months last time when my original 360 broke cuz they just didn't have anymore. Gah!
In more other news, I'm getting more involved in the church. Which is something that makes me happy. A few weeks ago, I noticed in the bulletin that they were looking for people to help run the St. Paul's booth at the Lake County Fair and I told Shane we should sign up for it. So we did. We didn't really do too much there because most people at a County Fair aren't interested in church booths, but it was still fun and we felt good about helping out.
And while we were there, Carol, this woman who usually leads the Sunday morning bible class that we go to, showed up to chat for a while. She told us about how her dog had cancer and she wanted a cheaper alternative than expensive surgeries to fix it so she started doing internet research. She ended up coming across this tea called Essiac that's supposed to make the immune system stronger and it also contains cancer killers. It was made for humans to use but she went ahead and got some for her dog and said it worked!
Sooooo after hearing this and knowing that my Granny now has lung cancer, I told my mom about it and asked her what she thought. She instantly ordered a bunch of it. Then when my mom and I took Granny to her first chemotherapy session, we asked her doctor if he heard of it and if it would be ok for her to take it. He looked down at the list of medications she was on and said "You know what, I want her to stop taking (some medicine that I can't remember the name of) and start drinking the tea instead. A lot of my patients have better results with the tea."
So yay! That was good to hear. She still hasn't been able to try it yet tho because she can't keep anything down. But when she gets stronger and isn't so sick, hopefully she can have some and it will help.
Anyhoo, as for getting involved in the church, last Sunday, Alice (who is the designated Sunday School organizer) told Shane she put something in our church mailbox about Sunday School. Then she turned to me and asked if I'd be interested in helping out at all. (she told me before she thought i was really great with the kids during VBS) I told her yes! And that if the position was available, I'd be interested in being Linda's helper. (I was her helper thru VBS and loooooved her) So now I'm waiting to hear if the position is open. I really hope it is.
Well that's it for now but I may edit later when i realize i forgot stuff i wanted to talk about...
