Crazy week!
It's been crazy ever since I came back a week ago. The good news is that three school districts are interested in me, in north central Illinois. After a 7 hour train ride each way, on Thursday, I interviewed with one. I would have to say that it wasn't my best interview yet, but give me a break...it was 103 degrees outside, and I had traveled so far. Today is a two day trip to Grand Rapids to have an appt. with my sleep apnea doctor. Again, on the train!! My car is acting up, so that is why all these train trips.
The diet is going well. I am down another size... I have lost 45 lbs. since the surgery. I went to the orthopedic surgeon, and we are beginning to do the tests for shoulder surgery...my clavicle needs to be hacked off at the end! It probably can't be done in July, but possibly early August. If I am to return to work, this is important.
Still lots of stress on the homefront. Medicaid people drive me nuts. Still no Medicaid. And my "expedited hearing" request is now three months old and the hearing hasn't been scheduled. I just love the State of Michigan. I ended up in the ER on the way to a meeting with them -- prescription drug reaction, I'm okay... but I can't get one person to call me back at Medicaid. I think being in the ER is a valid excuse!!! My town, Niles, is becoming a ghost town. So sad.. everyone is leaving (including probably me) because there is no work to be found, and all but one major business has closed down in recent months.
On a more happier note, I had my hair colored and cut yesterday. It looks great. Need to get moving, Laurie (lovey)
