Things on my mind

Over the past few years, I've lost quite a few friends.  Some where like an extension to my own family and others just drifted.  Now, I don't know if I was at fault for any of these "break ups."  I was never told why we weren't friends anymore.  I got to thinking about it last night, I haven't lost any sleep over it, but I do wonder what happened.  I do wonder how they are doing from time to time.  If I do see these old friends, and try to talk, I just get shunned.  How can I know if I had done something wrong, if no one says anything??  Last night, I was reading in Matthew and came along some verses that explain what to do if you do have a problem with someone.

Matthew 18:15-17
15.  Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.
16But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
17And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

Matthew 18:21-22
21.  Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?
22.  Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. 

So, with saying that, if you have a problem with me, or if I've done you wrong, talk to me!  Tell me what I did!

Ugh!

It's just been one of those...ummm...months!  It's been a month of trial and error, of just plain out frustration, and almost seeming like if it could happen, it will. 

I went to the doctor earlier this month because my body was swelling (not weight gain swell, water retention swell).  My blood pressure was abnormally high when I went in, so I'm now on a blood pressure pill that is also a diuretic.  Did all the blood work because the doctor was concerned that I might have a thyroid problem or possibly Lupus.  Those came back fine.  My cholesterol was high, I'm ashamed to say, and my Vitamin D was low, but everything else checked out normal.  She asked if since I'm on the type of hormones I'm on, if the saliva test done was normal.  Usually for the Compounded hormones there is a saliva test to see what level is needed.  I didn't have to go that route because the starting dosage was good.

Now, I'm awaiting my test results back for Cushing's Disease.  I went to the lab that's just a few miles from my house and found out for the blood work portion, I would have to be there before 9am.  Since it was later than that and I had to do a 24 hour urine test, the told me to reschedule.  They didn't have one for a week that early, so off to Crestview I went!

This weeks project has been fun, but not over yet.  Tuesday, I took the car up to the tire place because the back tire was going flat.  While getting on the ramp, BAM!  I was a little worried, but while it was in the air I didn't see anything wrong.  The ramp actually is under the whole car, and when it lifts it, it supports the whole underneath.  After getting the flat repaired from the nail it had found, I started the car to back it up.  Boy, was it loud!!  On the way home, I stopped to get gas for Matt.  When I came out I had found the problem.  The muffler was no longer connected.  I get home thinking this is something that I could easily fix.  NOPE!!  The flex pipe had come unraveled.  So, Matt and my dad get out there and give it a temporary fix.  We went today to go get it fixed correctly, and the guy tells us that it's going to cost $100, which $80 of that was for more flex pipe which was already there!!!  So, we left!  Tomorrow, while Matt's sleeping, my dad and I are going shopping for the correct parts and going to see if we can fix it tomorrow morning.

As it is pretty obvious, I have been getting frustrated so easy lately.  Even more so than normal.
