To network or not to network.......

Dinner with Marina and Elda
that is the question. Living in the age of technology, there are several networking websites. You have MySpace, and then there is Facebook. I did the MySpace thing. It was ok, but if you ask me, a little more for teenagers. Then I started with Facebook. I have to say it has been great. You have the chance to re-connect with old friends, and stay connected with new friends. You can see current pictures of them, and also pictures of their families. You can read about what they do on a daily basis.


In the past few months I have had the oppurtunity to not only re-connect with old friends online, but I have even met up with some for dinner. Last month, I had dinner with two friends from Douglas. Elda and Marina. It was nice to sit and chat, all while enjoying a great dinner. Unfortunaetly all our lives are busy, and there is no possible way to catch up in two hours. Tonight, we met for dinner again, and in talking we decided that it would be a good idea to plan a "Reunion". A reunion for any Douglas High Alumni. So many people that went to DHS live either in the valley, or Tucson. It would be nice to just meet up one night and have fun. We talked about going to Flickas, since it seems that most people from Douglas like to hang out there anyways. We did'nt get to talking about dates too much. Marina is getting married in March, and she has a lot of planning to do. We decided to wait untill after her wedding. Maybe April? Regardless of what day this reunion takes place, I am happy that I have found so many of my dear friends on Facebook, and so I say......network away!
*Yes, that is Sangria on the table. My only defense is that I never mentioned Sangria or Carrabba's on my "Goodbyes" post.

After you posted this pic on FB, I had to try Sangria. I had never tasted it before. So Jacque & I met up at Cheesecake Factory a couple weeks ago & I tried it. Loved it, but I'm a cheapskate & it was too pricey for me at Cheesecake. I'll have to order a beer next time! :)

vous êtes conviés

Here are pictures of the invitations for Kassie's 13th Birthday party. I had so much fun making them. Hum...maybe because I used my three favorite colors, maybe because I like to make invitations, or maybe it's just because I LOVE to plan parties. Either way, here is a sneak peak. Sorry the pictures are so bad, my camera is dead and I used my phone.

Good things come to those who wait...

I was having one of those bad Mondays. One of those Mondays when everything seems to be going wrong. 1. Our phones at the office are not working. 2. Statements went out over the weekend and angry patients are calling to complain. 3. My coffee got cold and I had to throw it away, and now I have a caffeine headache. 4. My cell phone has been tied up all day because I'm having our calls forwarded to it. (good thing for rollover minutes). 5. My boss has just added two more things to my darker pink "TODO" notebook. And just as I was about to roll up in a ball and hide under my desk, I got this e-mail. Dear Kindle Customer, Today, we introduced Kindle 2, the next generation of our wireless reading device.

Where do I begin???

After a long absence from my blog, I am finally sitting down to post. So much has happened in the past month that I honestly don't know where to begin. December 23, 2009 turned my world upside down. My mom suffered a minor heart attack, and was taken by ambulance to Chandler Regional Hospital. When I arrived, she was in good shape, and she was talking. They ordered a CT Scan of her chest. When she got back to the ER from her test, every thing that could have gone wrong, did. She suffered another heart attack, this one was much worse. She was in-tubated and things were not looking very good for her. The next few days were spent waiting for tests to be run, consulting with Dr.s and praying. A lot of praying. We were finally told that she would need to undergo a quadruple bypass. There was a problem with that, because she was in critical condition. Her kidneys were failing, her blood pressure was to high, as was her blood sugar. And, she was to weak. The surgeon said that we would
