Happy Holidays! I hope everyone is having a great Christmas! I certainly can't complain too much. I got my 85 1.8 lens and am so happy with it so far! Heres a couple of my little dog on Christmas morning:
She was checking out her Bass Pro Shop duck in her stocking in the picture on the right. hehe The one on the left, she is modeling her Target dollar spot holiday accessory! I told her to sit and stay - and she actually did it while I took her picture. That almost never happens! ha This week has not been the best for me, but still its been a great Christmas. On Tuesday, I went to an ENT to have a couple of things checked out. I have been having nosebleeds a LOT on only one side of my nose, so I knew it would probably need cauterized. I just didn't know he was going to do it right then at THAT appointment. Surprise. LOL First, he took this flexible scope thing and put it in both my nostrils and down to my vocal chords to look around. Though it was not painful, it was a bit uncomfortable. He wore a light on his head like I got my son for Boy Scouts when he went into a cave. haha Then he took this thing that looked like a giant match, and put it up my nose to cauterize it. Ever since then my nose has been burning like crazy. Then my teeth on that side started to hurt. The tooth problem has gotten worse as the days go by, so yesterday they put me on an antibiotic. So in between squirting saline, Afrin and Bacitracin up my nose, I have to remember to take an antibiotic 4 times a day, along with my Tylenol. I know this is only a minor thing and I surely have so much to be thankful for, but I was just not prepared for this the week of Christmas! Plus, to top that off, I came home from my ENT appointment to find my laptop completely dead. It has been acting funny lately but I didn't think it was just going to quit working. I have been so sad about this - I absolutely loved my laptop. I'm not sure yet if I lost all my data - my son, who is my computer guru, thinks its the motherboard. If thats the case, the computer is pretty much gone, but he says he can get my stuff off of it for me if I buy some sort of hard drive case. So tomorrow I'm off to Computer Deli to pick up a case and try to salvage what I can from it. Still, its so sad. I loved the portability of that laptop. If I had known it would die right before Christmas I would have asked for a new one instead of my camera lens. LOL Well - I need to get off here for now - we are going to my SIL's house for Christmas dinner, so I really need to get a few things done around here. I am seriously enjoying my Christmas day off today - I worked last year on this day, so having the day off is special treat!!! Have a WONDERFUL HOLIDAY! Talk to you soon!
