Well I went for yet another blood test and my levels are gradually falling, down to 4.00 rather than 6.50. Doc says to take pill on Saturday, not on Sunday and come in on Monday and check levels again and we'll go from there. So making some sort of progress. My leg is feeling much better, not as painful and the knot above my ankle seems to be alomst gone, even thou the clot is behind the knee I feel as if some progress is being made. Yahoo!

Will this be the first week since July 30th that I will be able to put in a full week's work? With the pathology reports still looming, not sure, but am planning on working the full week if I can.

I have put in for a transfer to another house, it's twenty-five miles away, but the hours are slightly better, 8:00 PM to 8:00 AM, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. I have reached the decision that after two and half months of my body screaming at me to stop and slow down that that's what needs to be done and with the new resident that is due to enter the home sometime soon and I've worked with him before and I can't tolerate his behavior under any circumstances that the safest and best thing that I can do for myself is get out before he arrives. I don't want to leave here but I'm not going to put up with his shit and try to remain sane, too big of a stretch for me. This guy will be so disruptive to this household it won't be funny and I'm not going to sit here and deal with it. Gotta worry about yourself Jon!

With the transfer it will open up the possibilty for me to return to cooking a few days a week, which I just might do, get back into the field which I love and felt that I was created to be in, the hours will be part time and I can make my days of work whatever I want and it will help build up the get out dodge fund which has been totally wiped out due to all the insurance bullshit...which has yet to even begun to be straighten out. Give me strength for that one!
