I have had a week of stress! I worked Monday , worked 14 hours on Tuesday and we had to have a furglough day on Wednesday. The big BOSSES said NOBODY (teachers, para pros, custodians or nutrition staff) could go inside the school !! I really needed to work and I would have done it without pay, just so I wouldn't have been so stressed out on the first day of school, Thursday. Today was good, but I'm already 2 days behind with my reports. But the computer "stuff" coming from the Central Office is always messed up for days when school first starts, I decided to wait for a few days , so I wouldn't  do anything that I'd have to do over again.
I have not done good on my eating. Tuesday I eat 3 chicken tenders and some slaw at 11, then didn't eat again till 8:30 that night, I came by McDonald's , which is new, and right next to my house. We even have our own turning lane that starts at our drive way!! Tonight I went to McDonald's , too!!  So , tomorrow is a new day, again. I'm going to cook chicken for all next week, so I'll have my meals aready fixed and I can just stick it in the microwave.
I have read every body's post  and I've got mad about the flat tires and I've laughted about the animals and my heart has melted just reading about the love you all share with them. I've thanked God that we have  come this far and that you all are my friends!!  And I've prayed about the health problems of  you and your famlies. I tell my sister about y'all and she feels like she knows you all!!  Love to all of you!  Judy

God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it or use it for good. Today is very imporant, because I'm exchaning a day of my life for it.

Judy I've missed your posts but figured you were very busy with work and getting back into it. It was so nice to open up the computer this morning and see your post!
Stress is hard for anyone don't we all know it! but with our systems the way they are now we are prone to more problems when we get stressed than others. so take good care of yourself.
good to hear your going to plan your meals too. Thats a big key. I carry a good size cooler in my car with snacks and my meals. I' mon the road all day so if I do not plan then I have to buy and if I buy I' mnot going to eat right. That little cooler keeps my cottage cheese better than my fridge! hahaah I like it when the cottage cheese isn't frozen but firm.
I've been wondering about this whole swine flu thing. Of course when the regular shots come out I'm going to get mine but my concern is that with the swine flu its going to go to the people who need it like kids, preganat women and people with health issues like dieabeties and the elderly.
I'm going to talk to my doctor cause I think that we with our systesm the way they are are prime candiates for that shot.
The guy that sits next to me at work lives in a town Glastonbury just a couple over from mine. His wife had swine flu. She was sick couldn't get better went to the docs and they tested her. She came back positive. She was one of the people that they talked about on TV, she was lucky and didn't have any other illnesses. She was sick for 3 weeks! she lost alot of weight, she's small to begine with. she said that it was like geting the mega flu that would not go away. For 3 weeks she just could not eat nothing would stay down or in. she was out of work all that time. the odd thing was no one in the family got it but her!
they had gone to a kids ball game and they think that she got it there cause there were some kids who came down with it too.
I know all of us are worried. I worry caues with the LBS I have to eat or I get sick. I dont' even want to think about getting a flu where you can't eat! Then its also easy to go into pnomonia.
Can you imagine my freinds wife had a mild case???
so if those flu shots come available get em!

I'm allergic to the regular flu shot.  I had one over 40 years ago and I was out of work for a week. Then about 15 years ago I had one, I thought they might have changed them. But, I was so sick I didn't eat anything for three days. I don' t rememeber much about that weekend. My arm swelled from my shoulder to my elbow.  So,  I don't  take  any shots. I hope and pray  none of get it. I don't get out in the school when I come in close contact with the kids. There is ususally a serving line between me and them, but I'm sure if it gets in the school it won't matter if I've been close to one or not.
I'm really going to try hard to stay on the South Beach Diet . My cashier at school needs to lose about 100 pounds, so maybe we can do it together. Friday , she said let's don't tell anybody what we're doing and just try real hard to do it together. So, I'll try to post what I eat next week. 
I hope you can do it too.  Judy

HI Judy
 Glad you are back to work, but, do't let those stresses send you to that McDonalds all
the time. Hopefully you have got that out of your system & was just a fleating thing.
Mc D's is soooo dangerous for us. Hang in There & next week will be better for you.
NOt only did I have 3 flat tires, I had to buy 2 new ones as they could not fix them.
I pretty much no who did it, & guess what Not talking or seeing him ever again after
this trick. Not a good thing. Had to use the power bill money to buy the tires. & Still
very Mad when I think about it.

Isn't it funny that we've been together so long that I remember what you go through at the beginning of every school year?  I even remember the computer issues you had when they started a new system. 

I find that if I on't plan what I'm going to eat and have it prepared, I'm likely to make poor decisions.  Good for you for planning and preparing ahead. 

Many hugs,
Connie
