I've Got A Follower?! Wow :)

One of the first things I have to figure out is how to default the font to this font so I don't have to pick it every time I post :) 

I have been running constantly since I got up this morning and had about an hour when I got home to let the dogs out, feed them, nuke something for me and head back out.  But I did get a second to quick check the blog and saw I had a follower - I couldn't believe it :)  This is going to be interesting.

I stopped by my doc's after work for a recheck on my hand and one of the culture results had come back - it's not Staph.  Still waiting on the Herpes culture.  I've never had a cold sore but if I had to choose between a cold sore and this "thing" on my hand I think I would chose the cold sore.  Doc said it could take up to a month to completely heal.  I'll continue to put ointment on it and stick a bandaid over it.  I may have to get a part-time job to pay for my doctor visits, meds and bandaids :)

Tonight was the first night our small groups met of the Christ Life class I'm taking.  Our goal was to go around, introduce ourselves and tell a little about us.  This is going to be a very indepth, soul-searching 11 week class and there will be times when it gets extremely personal and emotional - so there will be tears.  We were advised the guidelines on the box of Kleenex that is on the floor in the middle of the circle of our chairs.  We have a Facilitator, a Co-Facilitator and then four of us going through the course.  One of us definitely broke the ice when it came to tears, snot and using Kleenex - want one guess who that was????  Hmmmmmmmmmm.......oh ya, that was me...but hey...someone's got to be first, might as well be me.  We shared how we heard about the course, so I had to say how my husband had passed (and the tears started) five months ago today, and how my grief counselor recommended this course.  And I pretty much cried through the rest of introducing myself.  

Need to find one of my famous jokes and then hit the hay.
