Well, we did it! Today is Jayme's last day as a Target employee! He turned in his badge and computer on Tuesday and there really is no need to go in today. They gave him a little glass thingy that thanks him for his contributions over the last seven years. In fact, his seventh anniversary with them was Wednesday. I guess I'll cut up my discount card (not that I ever used it much with the distance to the nearest Target from our house) and adjust my thinking when I look at the weekly ad.
Kind of scary to be without medical coverage for the next couple weeks, especially given the fact that I went yesterday to the doctor and Raley is there as I type this and Pattie is going later today! Oh, what I wouldn't give for all of us to get well and stay healthy. I guess it is this weird "winter" we have had. I overheard some of the staff at the doctor's office saying that there have only been a handful of flu cases this year but they see several cases of pneumonia a week and have done so many chest x-rays they could do them while sleeping. I had to have another one done yesterday but thankfully it was clear. Just another (or is it the same?) sinus infection and round of bronchitis. Giving prescription nasal spray a go this time around and hoping that this antibiotic doesn't make me feel as horrible as the last one did!
On Monday Jayme reports to his new job. He'll have to fill out all the paperwork and then he heads out to the job site for the first time. He will most likely be gone all week and he may be gone longer than that. We will have to see. Still not too sure what his "schedule" will be or even if he will have any normal "schedule" at all.
We are still reeling a little bit, but we will adjust. I've always been like that. I rebel against change and fight it to the last and stress over it mightily when I know it's coming, but when it actually arrives and the changes are now part of life, I adjust and move on. It's a useful way to be, I guess.

Once you get down this way I truly expect us to somehow get together.
