Happy Fat Tuesday Gang!! Irvin has job interview this morning for a driving position with a cement company. He just couldn't stay retired. The training here at work will be starting at 8am and I guess we have a solid waste audit also.
There was a shooting in Pawtucket, RI during a school hockey game. The shooter from what I gather killed their ex-wife and daughter. There had been ongoing family issues and disputes due the shooters gender identity. Things are really starting to get out of control with all these shooting and the worst part is that those of us who have gotten our pistol permits and taken all the required classes will end up having our guns taken from us because of those who should have never been able to acquire a gun in the first place. Sending prayers to all of those involved.
QOTD: What's your favorite way to learn something new: reading, watching videos, or interactive workshops? I prefer either watching a video or interactive workshop. Though it is mostly watching videos.
B: coffee and 2 scrambled eggs with cheese
L: buffalo chicken salad over toss salad

You've been a busy bee! Score on the pressure washer!
I have an appointment today. I've on.y lost 8 pounds on the 1500 calorie diet. Mind you though I went a bit off the rails for my birthday. Back at it and doing a lot better. I only have Wednesday off from appointments this week. They are saying we're going to have critical fire weather Tuesday. We've been warned of brown outs. Gusts up to 60 possible close to here. Of course I have an appointment in Lubbock in the late morning tomorrow. I kind of resent that I have to go down there but it is what it is.
I posted on Friday I saw my NP at the women's health clinic. Well I am being referred to a high risk gynecologist for some pelvic floor issues. I have a grade one cystocele, ungraded rectocele and most likely a pretty bad Enterocele. Well at least at this time my uterus is not moving. The Np said be prepared for surgery...so that's happening. I should hear this week about when I'll see the gynecologist. It shocked me because I do kegels all the time. I have tried some of the exercises and it caused a lot of back pain. Not a happy camper. Hopefully I should be hearing from Texas tech about an appointment this week.
breakfast was an egg and a protein bar...also coffee
lunch will be most likely a taco
dinner is unplanned.
have a great one y'all.
Good Monday Morning Gang!! I got 150 pepper seeds planted, 48 eggplant seeds, and 15 tomato seeds. On Saturday we went to the beef farm in Somers to get some different things. Ended up having some nice sirloin steaks and lobster tails for Valentines dinner. Then for dessert there was chocolate covered strawberries.
We went to an indoor yard sale yesterday morning and scored a new electric pressure washer for $5. That will make washing the vehicles much easier in the Spring and Summer.
I have a new hire starting today so I'll be a bit busier than usual, but that's ok just makes the day go by faster.
B: tea and 2 scrambled eggs with cheese
L: some of the pressure canned chicken breast
D: Chef salad

Good late evening folks.
Still not many results with the rheumatologist. I don't think I have RA though. From the few that's come in it's looking that way. Maybe I'm just nuts.
I also saw a gynecologist today. It's looking like I'll have to have surgery for an issue I've been having. Not going to be a fun time. I'm being referred to a high risk gynecologist with the medical school here (Texas Tech). I should know in a couple of weeks when I seem em. Just yuck.
QOTD: people. I am terribly shy and have bad social anxiety
Food was in general much better. I think I had a protein bar for breakfast, can't remember all that I had for lunch. Dinner was fish chunks/nuggets, two hush puppies and half a cookiel
Happy Birthday Mel, sorry I'm late to the party.

Well we made it through another week. I have to put together a packet for a new hire on Monday and get things ready for a one-day training on Tuesday. The day should be rather quiet.
Tomorrow is supposed to be in the 40's and hoping more snow melts. Tired of see the white crap, but then again once it melts then I'll be seeing brown crap because then it will be mud season. Sometimes you just can't win in New England.
QOTD: What's something you wish you weren't afraid of? My biggest fear is of heights. I don't know why since when I was a kid, I would climb the old wooden ladder in the barn and jump a good 30ft into the huge loose pile of hay. I would climb trees and jump off of a 20ft high cliff into water. But now the thought of even climbing a ladder 5ft gives me anxiety. So weird.
B: coffee and 3 egg bites
L: toss salad
D: baked haddock and spinach
Hitting the Y tonight for a water aerobics class.
Have a great Friday and weekend everyone!!!
