Hmm...interesting.

I have work at Spencer's today from 2 to 9:30. It's supposed to be an inventory day, which means we'll be dragging all of the costume jewelry and little stuff into the back to control the numbers on it. All of the customers are going to be all, "Where's (item that they're looking for)?" and "Are you going out of business? Because there's nothing on your sales floor."

We are sitting here, discussing health issues. Over the weekend, Mom and Gramma Julie went to this women's health fair at St. Anthony's, mainly so Gramma could get a full blood test reading done. Mom got hers done, as well. Now, here's the thing. They are both at healthy weights, and their blood pressures are okay (Gramma's is still a little up there, but Mom's is perfect), but both of their cholesterol levels are sky-high. Gramma does all that she can to maintain her health--she follows a diet and exercises regularly and takes her medications like she's supposed to--and her cholesterol levels are high. Mom doesn't follow a regular diet, consumes tons of sodium, isn't very active, and hers is sky-high, but she's at a healthy weight and blood pressure. So the only conclusion we can arrive at is that this is hereditary. The thing is, is it worth it to exercise and diet to correct this stuff? Mom doesn't give a rat's ass. She says, "We're all going to die someday," and she has a point, but then again, she has MS. She knows there is no cure for this, and she's just going to get worse. Well, I do care about what happens to me. I'm still young. I want to take care of myself and not get sick. The people at the health fair told Mom that she needs to go see a shrink with an attitude like that. Mom's like, "I don't need to see a shrink. That's the fact of life--you can eat right and exercise and you're going to die anyway." Frankly, I think the people at the fair are right and she does in fact need to see a shrink, because her negative attitude is having an adverse effect on me, Hunter and Dad. But that's just Mom--never thinking about others.
