The Cheese Slicer Won...

Well today was an interesting morning at work. About a half hour into prepping our meats and cheeses for the day I had a battle with our meat slicer. Needless to say, it one and took a chunk of my right thumb with it. My boss came and i went to workman's comp and got 5 stitches and all bandaged up. I took the rest of today off but should be and hopefully will be ok to work on saturday. My poor right hand! 5 years ago I got 7 stitches in my pointer finger. Of course I'm right handed! The Lord has a sense of humor! He got me through it and I'm so thankful!!



Keep me in prayer, stitches aren't very fun and my thumb wont be the same after this. Love you all and thanks in advance for the prayers!

A Series Of Fortunate & (Not So Fortunate) Events!

Well it has been a while since I have written a blog so I figured I'd take this time to update you all on what's been going on during this wonderful summer! These last 2 1/2 weeks I have had the lovely pleasure of having Jovan around since he has been on his summer break from work! We've been spoiled being able to see each other just about everyday which is so very rare of us. Our usual reunions occur once a week at the most for only 24-36 hour intervals. So we've taken turns spending time with his family and friends in La Habra and spending weekends here in Riverside. It has been wonderful because we've been able to try new things to do with our time together that we wouldn't have time for otherwise.

We went miniature golfing with his friend David and girlfriend Melissa...(it should go without saying, I owned them! lol) It was super fun! We also went to a Nickle arcade in La Habra which I have to say is a genius idea and they should build one in Riverside pronto! While he has been in Riverside, I had decided to do something special and take him to one of Riverside's beautiful parks, Fairmount Park, that is 2 minutes away from my house and have a picnic for the two of us. It was such a relaxing time and we enjoyed it so much. We fed ducks afterwards and just had a great time walking around and just talking. Thank goodness the weather was super ideal! :)



I can now begin the countdown until my graduate school program starts and as of today I have T-Minus 19 days! :) I'm nervous but excited to start this huge chapter in my life, I cannot wait to see what the Lord has in store for me! Now moving on to not so fortunate news. During my once a month or so visits to the high desert I broke down on the way back to Riverside. Luckily, I didn't get very far down the Cajon Pass, but needless to say I needed a tow truck for the poor boat. I have to say though this car is a champ! It has super low mileage on it for being almost 16 years old and it has put up with me taking it everywhere and anywhere. Thank the good Lord it was a quickish fix and just have to replace the catalitic converters. I get my sweet ride back tomorrow afternoon. After that I will give it a good wash to let it know how much I've missed it! lol



Till next time....<3 and blessings!!
