Wow, how time flies.  I have been back from training now for almost a week and so far I have gotten 3 cases.  It's sad but yet very rewarding to see that you are making some kind of impact on the lives of these elderly people who otherwise have no voice.  I had to get an MRI yesterday and that was an interesting experience.  It was very loud and they gave me earplugs to drown out some of the noise.  It made this buzzing noise and it reminded me of the "emergency broadcasting system"  thingy on TV.  Everytime it would come on, in my head I was saying, "This is a test of the emergency broadcasting system, had this been an actual emergency......."  It was very cozy laying in there though.  If you are claustraphobic, I wouldn't recommend it.  The daycare called me yesterday morning and said that Savanah had gotten bit by another kid (mind you, this is the 4th time in 2 weeks).  This time it wasn't the same kid as before and all they kept telling me was that it was really bad.  So here I am thinking this kid took a chunk out of Savanah's face and on the inside freaking out a little.  I went up there and she was taking nap so I didn't want to wake her but I did talk with the director.  She starting crying and said, "Wendy, it looks very bad and in doing this job for 7 years I have never seen a bite like this."  So, anyways, I said well I will just see it when I pick her up and call me if I need to come get her sooner.  I left and they called back after she woke up from her nap and wanted me to come up there and look at her face........ they were right, it was bad.  There was no chunk taken out, but there were 3 very distinct black and blue bite marks along with scratches from the kids teeth.  The entire left side of her face is a giant bruise.  I didn't flip out cause honestly I was thinking it would be alot worse, but it was pretty bad.  They kicked the boy out for a few days and showed his mom what he did.  They moved Savanah to another room and filed a report so I don't get arrested for child abuse!  They also said we didn't have to pay tuition for next month.  Yahoo!  Savanah is fine and she's her normal little stubborn self.  She doesn't act like it bothers her much.  I think I ended up consoling the director more than they had to console me.  Things happen and she wasn't permanately injured.  We just gave her a little extra TLC and she was just fine with that. 

On April 14th I turned the big 27.... 3 years closer to 30.  Ahhhhhhhh! 

Today is Monday... it really hasn't been that bad.  It's gone by really fast actually.  I am going out of town soon for 2 weeks!!  ugh.  I'm not looking forward to it and that's why time is going by so fast for me.  I will be leaving my hubby with the babies for the first time in over 3 years!  He will be taking care of them all day and all night all by himself.  Not that he wouldn't have before now, I just never wanted to leave them or ever had a reason to.  Needless to say, he will have his hands full.  I have to travel for work purposes but it will be the only time I have to for that long.  So if you know where we live and know Joey, give him a call and check on him in a couple of weeks and go by to visit.  Don't tell Joey, but I keep getting these ideas of having just one more baby.  Why!  I have to keep reminding myself I am utterly insane and it's just a moment of pure mental illness that I am experiencing.  One of our good friends is opening up his own chiropractic office just down the road from where we live!  It's kinda exciting.  Looking back at when we were in school with him, I can't believe he has D.C. behind his name now, but I'm so happy for him and his family.  I really hope he does well.  We are going to the grand opening tonight when we get off of work.  I'm really loving my job right now, but I'm still technically in training.  I won't get a full case load for a few more weeks and when that finally happens, I don't know how much Xanga I will be doing.  We had our internet turned off at our house because Charter communications are just plain morons.  We did get Dish Network though and it's great!  I don't know if I'm more excited about having movie channels or the Disney Channel.  Well I guess I better get back to work doing nothing.  It's been real! 

Gah!!!!!!!!!!  I am at a crossroads in my life and desperately wondering which road to take.  Neither of which is really the one I want but.... you're given 2 choices and unfortunately neither choice is labeled "Undecided".  God is nudging me up to the plate saying, "don't be afraid Wendy, I'll help you swing"  and here I am knees buckled and cowering down like a dog with my tail between my legs because I'm afraid of the outcome.  Will I swing and miss or hit the game winning homerun??  Well since my crystal ball is temporarily out of order, I revert back to my trusty ole intuition which has failed me many times before.  I don't include God in this process because as we all know, I CAN DO IT MYSELF MUCH QUICKER!  Even when I do listen for God to speak, I only hear what I subconciously want to hear.  I seem to miss those little verbs that God throws out there like "LISTEN" "BE PATIENT" "TRUST" "BE STILL" "PRAY".  What do I do??  Which way do I go?  Which road is more favorable for ME????  More importantly which road is more favorable for God?  Which path will allow my life to glorify my savior more?  That's the path I want to take.  Unfortunately, it's not always the most fun.  But I deserve a little fun,,, right God?  I deserve the path that will reward me the most.  I've worked hard and I try really hard to do for others first.  I deserve the path that is going to make me feel the best.... right?  I have a feeling from my always never trusty intuition God's gonna give me rather hard, swift kick to the butt.  Maybe that swift kick will get me goin down the road I need to take.  UGH!!!!  *** sigh***  Help me swing Lord.... I've forgotten how.
