I made this card a while back so this sketch is no longer current. Work has been going well and I enjoy learning challenges. I have wonderful co-workers and a positive environment. The problem that I ran into is that the past weekend I had abdominal pain and thought that I was passing a kidney stone. My best friend and daughter made me go in and be evaluated to find out that it was actually my appendix and I had emergency surgery on Sunday morning. Luckily I was able to go home Sunday night. I took off Monday and Tuesday and have been back to work full time since. I come home exhausted so that's why my comments are short.
