Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained

It's Valentine's Day, and I'm sitting home alone as usual on this holiday. I was all set to go down to OKC to meet Andy, but 3 days ago I got a call from the ambulance service, and he was in an accident (hit by a drunk driver). His Ford Escape was totaled. and he's got fractured ribs, concussion ect... Poor guy. He sounded like crap when he call after he got out of the hospital.

Gotta love late night phone calls! Thanks J&D! lol Too funny! I still don't see why D thinks I have a cool accent! Did y'all ever get the pizza made?

ok so the new venture.... I'm going to start selling Italian charms. I found a couple wholesalers, and took the pictures to work.. and of the 205 I ordered, co-workers have reserved over 30 of them which MORE than pays for what I'm paying including the shipping! So look out E-bay... here I come! p.s. if anyone wants to see what I have available, I'll sell to my friends cheaper.

Where have I been????

I find myself again withouta database/scheduling system at work.. thank goodness it's alot slower then Tuesdays usually are! i am sooooooo madI didn't get to go Thurs down to OKC to see George and DB *sniffle* My dad has pneumona in his left lower obe, and he was supposed to have surgery yesterday to have a port a cath put in (permanant IV site) hisveins collapse easily. yes the IT guy still hasn'tgotten me a new keyboard witha a spacebar that works!

Andy from the boards has asked me to come down to OKC to see him this weekend while he's there on business. I may go down Saturday and spend the day with him. i talked to Judy about it the other night.. lol whatisitwhen we getonthe phone, it's 4 hours before we getoff the phoneagain????

i know there was some kind ofimportant funky news I wanted to puton here the other day, but dang if i remember what it is!

I went shopping at Dillards..andgotleatherknee high boots for $35.00!!! I'm soooooo happy

My feet are freezing!!!!!

Here it is 2:45 on a Sunday afternoon.. and all I can think is... MY FEET ARE FRICKEN FREEZING! Who authorized this ice storm???? Cause I sure didn't! man I've got to get around to updating this more often! Sheesh! I was supposed to get my new bed in yesterday.. but ICE STORM! No deliveries. Figures! But at least I have my tax return back.. and can shop! (online that is!) Currently I'm getting new address labels, and bidding on a quilt on E-bay for the new bed. Let's see which aspect of my life should I update first???

Love... oh yeah still eluding me... I swear.. I WISH to high heavens the friend/exbf would make up his bloody mind and stick to it! I'm not dealing with him right now. I did have a date last week.. nice guy for the most part, bodybuilder.. but sorry dude.. I want more than an invite to come tumble your sheets when ya need it! Sheesh! There IS a new guy at work! Gorgeous single dad whose daughter is 2 months older than mine! Big potential!

Speaking of daughters... mine has been sick on and off for a couple weeks.. thus my absence. If it isn't an ear infection then it's been diarrhea or vomitting! Good thing I have my mom here since I can't afford to take off work...

WORK... this job I'm in bites... I'm looking for something else as I can't take the witch that tries to get everyone fired just for a few giggles. Besides there's other crap going on... ok I have to vent a bit about an annoying co-what-the-hell-does-she-do-here-worker... I call her Flippy, ok most of us call her flippy... Flippy can't hold a conversation without flipping and flopping her hair at least 5 times a sentence (no that's NOT an exaggeration!) Flippy makes rocks look smart. Flippy has taken a liking to wearing BLACK lipstick to the office! DUDE! We are in a high profile cardiology clinic! WTH is up with that????? The woman's lips look like they have gangrene!

On to the drama... As most know, I'm adopted and was told when i found out by accident at age 16 that I'm adopted because my parents NEVER planned to tell me that little tidbit that my birth mother died 2 days after birth and never named a father... that I was adopted in MO (which conviently has closed records) Last week while I was at mom's looking for Aleia's birth cert. to get a new SS card, I FOUND MY ADOPTION DECREE. I am sooooooooo pissed.. not only does it give my name at birth (Shannon Marie Regan) It also names my mother! AND my adoption was in Kansas after all. I did alot of searching and have found an address and phone number for a Pamela E Regan in Belton, MO (the city that sits next to the city I was born in) I haven't talked myself into calling yet as I'm not sure what to say.... Umm hi... did you have a daughter you gave away in 1977? If so.. I'm her. These things don't come easy for me at all.

More Drama... I've not heard back from the state caseworker assigned to me to get child support from Jason... But she was supposed to be contacting the state of NC to find him and go from there.

Time for a change...Yesterday I went and got ym hair colored strawberry blonde and chopped it off. I had to do something. And when i say chopped.. I mean like 10 inches chopped! I'm very pleased with it though... my face doesn't look so round now! Will have to take a pic soon to show it off! Ok I guess I have to talk myself into bundling up and taking the rent check tot he office and driving way the freak across town to drop off my car payment. I think I saw on weather.com it's like 4 deg, and sleeting. Should be an intersesting drive!
