Iowa life

["Mysti"]

Well I'm not sure about everyone else here, but I personally have had a lousey last couple weeks.

I've dealt with the death a very close friend, came close to losing another due to menengitus (sp?) and then to add icing to the cake, we flooded and lost most everything we had in our basement. And I began getting migrains (Not what I ever wanted...they SUCK!!!!)

I swear sometimes I wonder why I ever decided to come back to Iowa. But I did, so I guess there's a reason?! So how has everyone else been? Are any of you dealing with flood problems also? If so how are you handling everything else?

Drac,
Glad to hear that you managed to avoid the flooding, it really sucked for those of us who dealt with it. But hopefully our insurance will cover the stuff we lost...washer, dryer & freezer at least (My fingers are crossed...I need to do laundry lol)

I don't remember you posting about your step dad, but I'm sorry to hear about your loss. It seems like everyone has been loosing loved ones this year. And I just found out yesterday that another one of my friends was in a bad accident & was life flighted to Des Moines and is in Critical condition.

I know it's late, but you have my condolences. And I know it's hard, and they'll be times when some days are harder than other's but just keep remembering the good times, and think about how he's in a better place now.

Glad to see you back by the way. And good luck, I hope you'll find a new job that you'll enjoy and will work out good for you. Please be safe & let me know how the job hunt goes....if you wanted to move up my way, I'd gladly let you have my job some days LOL... we have LOTS of overtime
