It's 2 A.M.... And I am Random!!!

So its 2:30 in the morning I am working at the Hospital. It has been a crazy busy night and I am wired probably because my nerves are shot lol from working so much. I picked up some extra shifts and have been working everyday since I am taking a much needed, long awaited vacation for a week and a half!

Things have been good lately, all things considered I am pretty happy and looking forward to each new day as it comes! I am feeling pretty random and wanted to blog so I guess I'll blog whats on my mind lol!

Next week I was suppose to go down to St. George and Vegas for the week just to get away and do absolutely nothing while enjoying a nice break with my Mom. Well things and plans change and my mom has unexepectadely found out she is having a serious major surgery. She has been having pain in her stomach and they couldn't find anything wrong so they did tests and tests and sent her to different doctors. Finally they sent her to a Urologist and found something wrong with her Kidney. Pretty bad because if they didn't find what was wrong she could have lost her kidney. So her Doctor said he didn't want to even mess with it because of how serious it was so he is sending her here to Salt Lake City for surgery at LDS Hospital with the best specialist in Utah. She has some kind of lump on her kidney and it is affecting her liver so they are going to do the surgery as soon as possible next week.. not sure the exact diagnosis its complicated and confusing will have to have my mom run it by me again lol...

So this works out well I guess because I have 2 weeks off work and my mom will come up to SLC for the surgery and will be in the hospital for a couple of days then I will take care of her when she recovers. So we will spend some time together while in Salt Lake then after her surgery.

I still get to go to St. George though! a few days after the surgery I'm taking my mom home and will spend some R and R in St. George I can't wait!!!!! I am excited to attend the temple, get a hair cut and go back totally blonde! Its sad the only lady I trust to do my hair and color my hair lives in St. George so sometimes its long and few in between to wait for Tamara to do my hair she is amazing and I can't wait to be a blonde again!

Hmm... another random thought.. we bought a slip and slide and I was totally stoked! I haven't slip and slided for years so I was totally there! Well it was fun and I forgot you should probably be wet before sliding I slid dry the first time down and didn't get too far lol. Today the day after I am sore! I My muscles in my side hurt just a wee bit! but it was fun! I love the water and love being out in the sun I love summer!

I can't believe how true it is that people die in 3's. Working in Long Term care and with eldery people for quite a long time this was so true! When one person would die 2 more would follow sometimes within days sometimes within weeks but it would always usually happen in 3's I have been thinking about this a lot this past week with the 3 celebrities deaths. Everytime I turn on the T.V. its all about Michael Jackson and yes as shocking as it was its getting a little old over and over again.... I'm a little dissapointed that there hasn't been anywhere near the coverage of the other 2 celebrities ... Farrah Facet and Ed McMann. I feel these 2 people were respectable and just as well known as the other they deserve a little credit and recogntion too! I don't think their lives were filled as with much controversy and drama as Michael Jackson's they weren't perfect people but were in my book pretty decent people and good celebs. All 3 had their own legends....Farrah was an Icon and a legend in her own respect she fought a couragious and strong battle and I respect her for that... Ed McMann.. I think this old man was pretty great lol. I remember as a kid always hoping he would come to my house with that Million Dollar check after the Super Bowl from Publishers Clearing house. Thats How I remember him and that memory of always hoping for the Million makes me laugh. When I think about Michael Jackson I think alot of things was he misunderstood? maybe he was maybe not. I think he was wacko.....He definitely left his mark and his legend behind but it he was still here and alive today would he be the newsmaker like he is after his death or just some celebrity we laugh at and joke about...

That was a bit long and everyone is entitled to their own opinion!!! this is just mine and my blog! lol.

Tonight I read that Billy Mayes died! that was pretty sad and his death a random one and the beginning of the next 3 deaths in 3 maybe? He was kind of annoying but I'll miss his loud voice and enthusiasm about Oxy Clean and KaBoom etc... I'll miss his infomercials and hearty voice on T.V. lol:)

This past week I have definitely thought of these celebs and looked at my life. I have thought If I were gone what would people say about me? What is my legend I am making and leaving behind? I hope its a good one and the best one I can make. Who I am and who I am becoming is the most important thing in the world to me. Everything that I do is making a mark in my life or influencing someone somewhere and I want to make the most of every day and every single moment I am given....

Well there ya go kids! My random thoughts in the middle of the night. Maybe I am not thinking too cleary but one thing I know is that everything is funnier and a little more light hearted in the middle of the night I love those nights at work when we have fun and laugh at the silliest things it makes for a wonderful night! Good Night in 2 HOURS!!!!
