Well today was my 2nd day back at work. My coworker/friend called me on wednesday to see how I was doing and casually mentioned that "1SG was just wondering when you were coming back..." which is code for please get your ass back to work. They are going nuts with the phone calls". She also told me they got me a get well present and I'd really like it. Well today after they come back from training my boss lays a card and a little stuffed puppy dog on my desk. I'm thinking thats sweet cuz the puppy was cute. Well I go to read the card and lying underneath it was a preloaded Starbucks card. At this point I'm thinking cool, they put $5 on it for me. Well, try $105! The WHOLE company pitched in and got me a preloaded Starbucks card with a hundred and five freaking dollars on it. As Krista would say SQUEEE FREAKING SQUEEE SQUEE SQUEEEEE!
So that really brightened my day. All 55 of the people I work with have now become enablers for my addiction. :)
I decided I had to post this to remind myself next time I got on here to write about how craptacular life is, that there are some good things that happen :)

Going back to work tomorrow :I
I had my gallbladder out last friday and have been off since then. I am not scheduled to go back to work until friday but apparently they miss me and I really want to save my vacation days if I can so I am going back tomorrow. I know that I will have ALOT to catch up on and I'll probably be exhausted by noon tomorrow but I have to go back sometime. On the upside during this little bit o' time off Chris' brothers were here for a day and a half and the boy worships both of his uncles so that was fun for him. The neighbors were nice enough to make us a lasagna so Chris wouldn't have to cook dinner one night and it was really good.
I have read ALOT since I haven't been able to do much of anything else. Finished Cornwell's Warlord Chronicles which were quite good once I got into them and read the Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox and will have The Kitchen Boy finished tonight. After slogging through the warlord chronicles which were 400+ pages each I am hesitant to start any longer books because I think I am getting burnt out on reading long books. I had every intention of starting Philippa Gregory's Wideacre trilogy after the Cornwell books but just could not do it because those are 600+ pages each I think.
As far as school goes I am so tired of taking classes that I am thinking of taking six weeks of the summer off again but that will delay my graduation til next year. I had to drop my international human resources class again after I found out when the surgery was going to be because I knew I would not be able to handle two classes during all that. The one I am left with which is women's history is just boring me to tears and each night it comes time to do my homework I am finding myself putting it off until the last minute because I don't want to do it at all.
Have a few things coming up in May that I'm looking forward to. May 1-4 they are doing the Wizard of Oz at the Frauenthal and I want to go if we have the money. The saturday before Fruitport Old Fashioned Days starts they are having the annual book sale at the library so I'm going to hit that up. Then theres the three day for memorial day. Probably going to stick around town this year but more time off so yay! Also Sex and the City the movie comes out that weekend and I am going so hopefully all my surgery wounds will have healed by then and the weather will have improved and it will be a good month.
The only cloud currently raining on my parade is one of our insurance companies keeps denying just about every claim sent to them so I keep getting bombarded with medical bills. Can't wait to see what the fallout is from this surgery :(
