Now Geoff has me tucked into bed and I'm sipping on a Neo Citron. I have a fever and I'm trying to sweat it out. Slept a bit, but just don't seem to be able to sleep anymore, but Geoff said I have to stay in bed. My new manager Tori-Lea said to make sure to take care of myself. It really sucks because if it weren't for the surgery I probably would just be at work right now toughing this out.
Geoff doesn't like the fact that I have a fever though. Well better get some more rest before I get in trouble with Geoff.

8 Days to Go!
I'm feeling a bit down in the dumps. Trying to beat this cold I have before the surgery.
I have to say the highlight for this weekend was spending time with the family for our 'belated' Thanksgiving Day. It's not everyone that can say they are able to spend time with their family and I'm thankful I can at least say that. My boys are awesome and I love them both to death. We talked so much about the life decisions they've made and keep making. I'm proud of them and of myself on how I've raised them. They are not sheltered like some kids are. I refuse to do that to them. They need to see life as realistic as it may be or become. In the real world, people swear, people are cruel, people do drugs and drink lots of alcohol.
Being at the park where my kids sometimes go, I witnessed two guys there smoking pot and drinking like it was the last time they've ever be able to drink. Both my kids only saw it as them being losers and in no way ever thought that it was cool. I told my boys a long time ago, 'God gave you both a gift, a gift that can either be wonderful or the worse gift you've ever received. It's the kind of gift that you can mold yourself. The gift is 'CHOICE'. There will always be a crossroad at some point in your life, many times you see the crossroad. It is your choice to take the turn that you want. It is important, however, to stop and think about what you want to say, what you will choose to do.'
Communication, trust and honesty is a big part to family. Without it, there is no foundation.
I miss my friends right now, I wish I could see them before my surgery. I feel frustrated that some of the people I care about deeply haven't taken the time to register to my blog. Am I offended? Yes I am.
Enough for today, obviously I'm quite down....maybe due to the surgery coming up, or just maybe because I'm me.
