It's Friday Again

For most Friday is the last day of the work week and they are looking forward to the weekend--hooray! However, that is not my fate at the moment.Worked a full shift yesterday--getting off at 11pm--and will be going in for four hours today then a full shift Saturday and 4 hours Sunday. Busy weekend.Tonight Mike and I will be taking Elsie (Bob too) out to celebrate her 74th birthday, which is actually next Tuesday. She wants to go The Spaghetti Wareshouse in Ybor City then peruse the nightlife of Channelside and Ybor, so that is what we are doing. Should be fun, just hope Mike and I aren't too tired to enjoy it properly.Been a busy week. Worked last Saturday until 9pm then was up at 4am to get ready for my trip to Orlando with Elsie, Freada, and Alice. What a great day. I received my Academy of Friendship degree along with 247 other deserving women. that is the first degree awarded to Women of the Moose for their work within the Chapter. Lots of changes coming to the organization from the International Headquarters. Can't say that I agree with them all, but I still believe in their basic principals so will accept and continue doing what I can.Worked a short shift Monday then was off Tuesday and Wednesday. spent most of Tuesday catching up on tasks left undone while working. Also spent a lot of time on my favorite website--JamsBio--as well as checking in on some other sites that Yovia is helping to promote that are worth it. One of them I am especially fond of is http://buzz.prevention.com. Great tips on living healthier.JamsBio is really booming and their are some truly wonderful people sharing their memories on the sight. They have two contests going at the moment. The first is in honor of the 25th Anniversary of Michael Jackson's Thriller. What's your favorite song and memory of it? It could be worth a thousand dollars. The other contest is about your favorite song and the memory it holds. Just log in and share it your memory to be entered into that one. the more you share the more chances you have of winning in their weekly drawing.On the downside, my friend, Michelle has spent the last five days in the hospital, Saw her Wednesday and thankfully she is doing better and should be home by now. She has an infectious skin disease and is anenmic. Both are being treated with positive results. With all the tests and such they also discovered she has a leaking heart valve and another is enlarged, but the heart doctor doesn't deem it a serious problem though she will have to see him once a month for monitoring. Also had another friend in the hospital for surgery that we checked in on and she is doing fine as well. Our love and prayers go out to both of them.Straying from the personal just a moment. I have to say that I am once again disappointed with the media. While I don't condone multiple wives or child having babies etc. the media needs to get their facts straight. The group under investigation in Texas is NOT a Cult. It is a sect within a RELIGION that adheres to the old teachings and beliefs of its founders. They are not all monsters and to date no one has located the child that made the call so their is little proof of any wrong doing. At a time when everyone is bending over backwards to be politically correct and not offend other religions, especially Muslims and Islam, why are these people not being afforded the same?What about the earthquake in the Midwest? That was a surprise, but then we shouldn't be if we read our Bible. Earthquakes in unusual places is told of during the end times. If we aren't there yet, we are getting close.Well I've gone for awhile this time so will close, but do check out the sites I've mentioned and let me know what you think. Personally I can get lost in JamsBio for hours and hours.Have a Blessed Week. See you next Friday.
