Wow, seems like I haven't been on in ages. But doing better...I had kinda given up and crap like that. But now I'm feeling more like myself. So hopefully u will see more of me.  >:D
Yep, going back to Omaha tomorrow morning. Mom came down last night to help move me. Everything is just about packed except for my 7 plants. I hope I can fit them all in my car. Those plants are my babies, just like a pet is to some people. I can't leave a single one behind. One of 'em I've had for about 7 yrs.  Hopefully we will be leaving about 8am and it's about a 5hr drive. I also need to find my dialysis unit when I get there. I need to know where I will be going monday. I don't even have to address yet. ugh.....
I'm gonna be living with my mom for awhile until I get my own place. I just can't wait to be back with my family and friends. I will get to see my nephew all the time, thats what I'm most excited about. I'm gonna be such a bad influence. muahahahahahaha

If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.

Lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself.

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning how to dance in the rain.

Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.

All the best Tubes.  My plants are my babies too, and one of them (a hoya hanging basket) is in the same pot and soil since 1978.  Enjoy your nephew, he's such a cutie pie (wonder where he gets that from???)

Wow! Since 1978? That is awesome! I kill all plants. My husband is surprised I have not killed the dogs and the hamster.

Good luck on the move, Tubes.
