Belated love from me to you!

Posted by: Anna on: December 29, 2006

In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve been pretty absent for the past few days. I’ve been getting a grand tour of Pennsylvania. From the North West to the South East. I will be enjoying a walking tour of Philly. I will more than likely have my very first Philly Cheesesteak from [...]

Not enough hours in the day

Posted by: Anna on: December 19, 2006

How did it get to less than a week from Christmas? Does Time not know about everything I need to do, everything I need to finish? I have to pack! I have to, like, wash my clothes before I pack them. I have to finish making gifts and orders. I [...]

Nerd attire to follow

Posted by: Anna on: December 18, 2006

I’ve gone over to the dark side. Ok, it’s not really dark. It is more like “your boyfriend calls you a nerd” side. I bought and currently lurve Final Fantasy XII. Lurve!
And yes, he really called me a nerd. I tried to point out to him that his game Oblivion [...]

I need a new catch phrase

Posted by: Anna on: December 15, 2006

After two days of a lovely stomach bug, I’m back at work. I guess the good thing is I’m able to take it easy today, since I don’t look all that great. I’m not sure if I should take that as it is or be offended.
In just a week from today I will [...]

Doing my duty

I know I should give blood. It helps save lives. However…
I feel like crap every. single. time. I. give. blood. The needle site hurts like a son-of-a-bitch and I am so wiped out now. The past few times, my iron level has been low. Today, I’m not clotting well. [...]

Business expands

Posted by: Anna on: December 11, 2006

Woo hoo! I have my first teaching class! I’ve been asked to demonstrate making bracelets and earrings for youth group girls to give to their mom’s for Christmas. How cool is that? This completely helps build up my self-confidence about this. What a relief! Now I’m not so afraid [...]

Cross-post

Posted by: Anna on: December 8, 2006

This is a cross-post from MySpace.
I’ve been sitting on this info for a couple of days. Didn’t know what to do with it. So, here it is.
Just a little update. (with some background for those of you who don’t know)
Some of you may know that my mom was diagnosed October 6, 2004 with [...]

Busy Bee

Posted by: Anna on: December 6, 2006

I’m am hoping like heck that the projectile vomit that showered me last night does not infect my system. I am looking at a $300 week in jewelry if I can deliver by early next week.
Back to the vomit thing. It was my niece and my shoulder (and boob) having it out. [...]

Woo Hoo!

Not carpal tunnel syndrome. My nerves are perfectly fine. *phew!* I’m trying to figure out which was worse – the electric fence at home or the electric test in my elbow. We may have a tie here!
Tomorrow I go in for blood work to rule out an auto-immune disease. Rheumatoid arthritis [...]

Of game and bead

Posted by: Anna on: December 5, 2006

Today is the big day. It is the day I get my nerve test and find out whether or not this is carpal tunnel or arthritis. I think I’d rather have arthritis – it won’t progress as quickly and it shouldn’t hamper my computer addiction. However, it could have a big impact [...]
