Good Thursday Morning Cali!

Goodmorning Janine and Cali Guys and Gals.  Hope today brings everyone joy.  I have come down with a terrible cold.  I don't have time for this as I am a busy busy girl!  Homeschool starts today so back to the grind, but I really love to teach so it is actually wonderful,  It is just hard to do when you are not feeling well.  I went shopping last night with my 6 yeear old son, he is just too cute.  WE got a new coffee maker as our other one just died a few days ago.  Busy day today so I better get going,  Looking forward to meeting everyone onSaturday.  Thanks for the directions Sue Bee.  Have a super day everyone.  Rhonda

Good morning Janine and Crew.

Yesterdays total reported weight lost for the week is - 34.3 pounds.

Wishing all of you a Terrific Thursday!

Good Morning. I am too looking forward to seeing you.  Chuck is hoping that his new bike is ready for him.  I like Rhonda have bee suffering with a cold.  This is round two for it.  I am told this is how it has been hitting people.  Well, yesterday was a great day.  Miss Lindsey turned 18.  I did a photo collage of her life. then and now.  It is huge hold 34 pics.  My gosh doing it was so much fun and a long walk down memory lane.  I took an ultrasound picture, her hospital birth certificate.  She really liked it. 
Last night we went out to dinner Lindsey's boyfriend or ex-boyfriend or current boyfriend not sure of the relationship BJ'S for dinner.  The biggest treat for Chuck and I was that they picked up the tab.  They picked it up because she has had very limited mobility since Mickey broke her ankle and I have brought over a lot of meals and she said that this was the least that they could do for us.  I really had no idea they would pay.  It was so funny miss Lindsey loves to make grill cheese sandwiches.  She makes them on a sandwich maker at their house so they bought her bread, cheese and a sandwich maker.  It was really funny.
Well, speaking of food I need to do something with 90% of my salad that is leftover.  Not really too sure.
Tonight is back to school night it will be my last one forever! Unless one day I get grandkids and go with them.  So Lindsey starts school at 7am (zero period) and she will be out by 9 am.  Life is tough huh.  Then she will go to cosmetology school till 5.
Well, again enough rambling about my kid.
Have a great day.
Liz

Morning!!!
 
Even though I have time to myself in the afternoon, it seems that I have just been on the run every day, going for traction or other errands.  Today, I get to help out in my son's Kindergarten class for about an hour and then my middle baby and I have a doctor's appointment. I will work in the classroom again tomorrow for a little bit and then next week is kind of up in the air, as I will have a pre-op appointment on Monday for my back injections on Wednesday.  Who knows how I will be feeling after those.  Dreading that, for sure!

Anywho~ hope that everyone has a great day!  Janine, do you think it is the custodial staff that may be turning off your kiln?? 

Later!

 Good Morning Janine & Everyone,
Four days left until I start work Yaaaaa!!!! I am going to be working in a locked psychiatric facility. It is only 15 min from my house, so that is great!! First 90 days are all Per Diem feeling everyone out, then they decide what your position will be. Since I have experience the Director of Nursing has no doubt I will be full time. So lets just hope they take the time off for surgery good!!!
Oh well off to enjoy my last few days off. Hope everyone has a wonderful day. Be good to yourselves and those around you!!

Morning all.  Cleaning up the paperwork here on my desk getting ready for my 3 weeks off.  Assembled mega lasagna for Joe's trip to Colorado, a couple for the freezer and one for the guys on the bridge tonight.  They asked him if I could freeze them some dinners ahead of time and bring them down while he's gone.  Hahaha.  They got Turtle brownies last night.  Somehow I get the same satisfaction out of cooking and baking even tho I can't eat any of it.  Go Figure.  Sense of smell is closely linked.
 
Pampering myself prior to surgery.  Massage yesterday, manicure today, pedicure tomorrow, day trip to Lassen Park on Saturday with the old man and Jayden.

Off to find my flame-thrower (best way to take care of  unwanted paperwork).

Hi Maureen!  Why didn't I think of that flame thrower for my desk??   (You kill me girl!)  xo Kim

Shredder works too but not nearly as dramatic!   good thing the fire exxtinguisher is right outside my door.  Do ya think they did that on purpose?

A zillion years ago when I was just a weeee little file clerk working for this mega corporation it was my job to do all the "central filing"  Sometimes it was overwhelminmg.  So................ I put a bunch of it in a box or large envelopes and mailed them to my friend in Woodland who held it for 3 days and mailed it back.  By that time I had the rest of the crap under controll

Janine and the rest of you folks

Having a good week so far.  I have had 2 work out with my trainer, dam he is mean i have never felt so sore in my life, i can hardly walk.. I have an appoitment with the financial aid office today at the college, woo hoo classes start on the 15th..

Starting to get really depressed here in Palm Springs.  I am missing my weekley suport groups in Phoenix.  I will be going to Phoenix on the 19-22 for my 3 month post op, and going to the one day OH event .  Sure hope this helps.. Starting to think the depression is comeing from not being able to find a dam job..uggg   this is getting old fast...
