This is going to be a bit winded, sorry.
Some of you may remember that the company Scarlett and I worked for was leaving for Mexico, and that as a result we would be losing our jobs. Well it happened, for Scarlett last December, and for me the end of May. Since then I have been jumping through hoops putting together a Training Proposal for Uncle Sam, to go back to school for retraining in a new career as a Certified Bookkeeper. I started school three weeks ago. It is an extremely accelerated course. Scarlett and I had taken accounting 1 & 2 fifteen years ago, though I don’t remember 99% of it. In the last three weeks I have completed accounting 1, and half of accounting 2, each of which took a full semester fifteen years ago. The classes are intense, and the studying is never ending.
Continuing the “This Week _____ in the AN Calendar World†after LADavid and Keri has been a great way to express our best wishes, thoughts, and prayers. Many of you have said how much you liked the thread, some many times over, and I have greatly appreciated your very kind words. However, the schooling has proved to be quite a handful. Although I will be popping in here and there, this will be my last Weekly post.
I thought that I could do both. I was sadly mistaken!
Hugs to you all,
Rich
LAST WEEK:Scott (TR4guy) we are very sorry that you had CSF leakage after your 9/14 translab surgery, though very happy that it has been stopped and can now put that behind you. We are sending good vibes your way that you will have a swift recovery without any future complications.
(Funnydream), it is truly unbelievable that your 9/16, and 9/22 rescheduled dates for surgery were both cancelled. We’re very sorry and wish that there was something we can say to make you feel better. With your surgeon being in surgery all night, you really didn’t want him operating on you without a good nights sleep. You made the right decision!
THIS WEEK:This week is birthday week
Monday 9/20 Brian (Pooter) turns….well…sorry Brian your blogspot gives it away
Friday 9/24 Nani will turn twenty five.
Saturday Jan (leapyrtwins), you’ll be turning 26 right
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, hope you each had/have a wonderful day
Donnalynn (donnalynn) we will continue to keep you, Jim, and Vanessa in our thoughts and prayers that one day you can all look back at this as just a horrible dream.
Soundy (Soundy) we will keep you, your dad, and brother in our thoughts and prayers as well as, that his health improves also.
We know that recovery is different for everyone, and that “the new normal†is also different for each individual, but we continue to hope and pray that with every day that goes by, your recovery goes a little smoother, and that your new normal feels more normal.
Have a wonderful week everyone,
Rich & Scarlett
