Passed muster on my first week on the job...was extremely stressed, though...I still feel like my neck and shoulders are broken, in spite of my b.p. meds....still, it looks like the job might be a go and the people there seem very nice...wow, that 2.5 years of unemployment was a hell of a long haul, and I truly hope to God that I don't ever have to go through that, again....now to save up enough to buy health ins.  My folks wrote out the last payment for mine, today....it runs out the last of September.Mom got the results of her latest blood test back...news not good...albumen in her renals, enlarged spleen, a kidney stone (strange, my mom's the best water drinker, ever...probably fr. all of those damned meds she takes), very low blood count (that's to keep her fr. getting clots, though, to prevent another heart attack, or future stroke) and still having gall bladder-like symptoms...she was down and very tired, today.  We watched "Calendar Girls," tonight, and that cheered her up, some. I hope that everyone else, though, continues to have a great weekend...I'm just trying to give my soul a rest...
