The snow is melting!!

Good morning everyone! The snow is starting to melt, and the temperature is going up. I am so excited. No more slipping and sliding , getting my jeans wet, ruining my shoes. Life is good!
D has an interview tomorrow. It sounds really promising. The guy who called him, called on Saturday! He is really interested in him, already talking money! The bad thing is, it's 2 hours away. But if the job is right, we'll deal with it. It is so good to see D excited about something. He has been so sick, and still doesn't know what's the cause of his red blood cell count dropping. He had another test yesterday, but we don't know the results of it yet. The other tests have been fine. Hopefully this last one will too, and they will just give him iron pills and all will be fixed.
Our youngest saw the sleep doctor Friday. She said he was really nice, but there is not a magic pill to help her. He is having her stop taking the sleeping pills, and he increased the medicine she takes for restless leg syndrome. He told her to take it every night, not just occasionally. He also told her no lights, no music, to TV with the sound off. That is very difficult for her. But I told her she had to do it. The doctor is a specialist in sleep problems, so I'm sure he knows a lot more than she does. She goes back to see him in 2 months, so I've told her to do what he said, and if it hasn't helped in 2 months, see what he has to say. She doesn't have al ot of patients when it comes to doctors not giving her the answer she wants to hear. I guess a lot of us are like that. But most of the time they are right.
You know the saying when it rains, it pours? Our garage door broke yesterday. The opener is 10 years old, so we have to replace it. I guess there could be worse things than that.
Do any of you watch Grey's Anatomy? What do you think about Meredith? Will she survive? I hope so, I don't think I can take another day of McDreamie crying. He loves her so much. I love that show!!
Well, that's all I have for now. Please say a prayer, and keep your fingers crossed for D tomorrow. I'll let you know what happens!

I'm absolutely keeping you and D and the kids in my prayers! It will be a challenge for you if he gets that job, but on the other hand it will be a job.

Look at it this way, you pretty much have nowhere to go but up. Kind thoughts and hugs to you Sandy!

You and D are in my thoughts and prayers. Good Luck to you tomorrow. I know it will be hard if he gets this job and it is 2 hours a way but where there is a will, there is a way.

Meredith has GOT to survive. Oh my GAWD the show will just suck without her!!!

I have my fingers and everything else crossed for D- I hope the interview goes well. A 2 hour drive would kinda suck but nothing sucks more than being out of work.

I really hope the results come back with nothing serious and that your daughter finds some relief with her sleep.

Hugs!!

Hey girl, great blog! I swam over from Hope's. I will be praying for D to get the job and for his health to be given the all clear, and for your daughter. Sleep deprivation is no fun.

As for Grey's, I was gonna be MAD if they killed of Meredith. I mean, WTH were they going to call the show when she's gone, Yang's Anatomy? Sounds like another name for a vajayjay to me... So glad she made it. Kinda worried about what her suicidal tendencies do to her and McDreamy's relationship though. He could be my "knight in shining whatever" anytime he wants.
