October Recap

It's been a while since I've had a post so I'll give you a recap of what's been going on this month. Work has been good....still learning and training a lot. I love working for Southern Nuclear and I hope to stick around for a long while. I started a new work schedule this month. I work 9 hour days Mon. - Thurs. and I'm off every other Friday. I love it....having a 3 day weekend every other week is fantastic!

We went camping with another couple the other weekend. It was a nice, relaxing, and peaceful weekend. The couple that we went camping with are some of our best friends. We hang out a lot together. We went to her 30th birthday party a couple of weekends ago and a few decided to go for a late night 4-wheeler ride. Her husband had a bad wreck and ended up in the ER and then he saw a specialist last week and had emergency surgery the day after. He had fractured his pelvis in 2 places as well as dislocated it. They had to put in a plate and a few screws to correct it. He came home from the hospital this past Saturday and is feeling a lot better and is on his way to a full recovery. It's been a long a stressful two weeks for his wife and we're all glad that's over and that he's recovering nicely. He'll have to be on crutches for the next 3 months but, he's very lucky he didn't have any further injuries. His 4-wheeler on the other hand is not in such great condition. I guess that's ok because I don't think he'll be riding anytime soon anyways.

Other things that we've done this month include traveling to Atlanta for Mark's sister's birthday. It's always great to see his family. By the way - he's the middle of 7 kids. We visited some of Mark's long time friends, watched some football and ate a lot.

That's about it for the month of October. That's enough excitement for me for one month. Happy Monday!!
