Good Morning Dear!

Hearing you talk about your kiln brings back memories of when I was in 3rd grade and I made my mom and dad, what else, but an ashtray!! The cool thing is, after my mom passed away, I found it on a shelf....she kept it! To her, when we made things, they were treasures. I now have it displayed in my living room on an accent table. I have my candle snuffer in it. It's so hideous! People ask what  the heck it is, and when I tell them, their hearts just melt because my mom keeping it is the sweetest thing. to her it was a precious work of art.

I got most of my stitches out yesterday....the ones in my belly button were pretty painful getting out, but man, I love my new belly button! I'm kinda bummed becasue my butt is so flat. I guess I didn't expect that. So, I guess next year it's fat graphting to the ol' back side.......I've got plenty of fat to go around still, so there's plenty for the booty!!!

Today I go to Kaiser to get checked out in the surgery dept. I think I have a seranoma (sp) that needs to be drained. I'm a little nervous...I'm just tired of being poked and prodded, and things are going so well lately I just don't even want to step foot into a Dr's office. But, I have to be a big girl!!!

No big plans for the weekend. My friend may come for a visit, and if he does. I'm going to ask him to take me for a ride...anywhere really, just to get out and get some fresh air.

Have a great weekend!!!

Hi Janel- I have a seranoma or whatever it's called.  They drained it for an  hour yesterday!  I had been running a fever for 5 days, and once they drained it I felt SO much better- no more fever!  I go back this morning to see if they can drain it more.  It wasn't painful to drain it, just gross.  I am really sore today from it, though.

Good morning Janine and Cali, and TGIF for sure!

I do enjoy the extra day off but it can be hard to cram 5 days worth of work into a 4 day week.

No, I haven't been posting as much. It seems time has gotten the better of me lately and by the time I read what it going on, I have to move on.

Sammi is good. I made arrangements at work to be able to take her to school today. She sure does love school. I just hope it stays that way. LOL

Today is kind of a stressful day, we're waiting to hear if my DH is going to be able to keep his job. Needless to say, sleep didn't come very easy last night.

Janine - how frustrating for you about the kiln. I would be on a man hunt for sure. good luck.

Well, I better get a move on. Hope everyone enjoys their day.

Well it's my last day here at work for 3 weeks and they are trying to  pile it on.  I have an attitude - Hey, I'm gonna be gone 3+ weeks, what the hell do I care?  I am one body doing the work of one today.

I'm now a "honorary Italian".  For being such a pasty white girl (I'm Irish German) I sure can cook like a "true blood".    Needless to say the lasagne was a hit.  If I ever stop working for PG&E I could always start a small catering business.

Joe, Jayden and I are going to spend the day tomorrow in Lassen Park.  We've never been and I am looking forward to it.   We're going fishing in Manzanita lake and taking in the sites.

That's it.  I had better go get payroll and my 212 call-out lists done before I flame-out all the rest of this paper.
 

Wow, your post brought back memories.  We used to camp at Manzanita Lake with my grandparents every summer.  I hope you enjoy - and good luck with the surgery!  --  Carol

Good Morning Janine and Cali,

I cannot wait for this day to be over.  Yesterday was a rough day for my baby girl, she is missing her mom and according to grandmother, fussed all day and kept reaching out for me.  I wanted to cry I felt so bad for her but I know it will change. After I got home she was fine.  She woke up at 1 and played all over me until 3 so to say the least I am pooped.

Before work I had to make 3 stops, so I rushed out the door and am now posting from my desk.

Everyone enjoy the day and weekend.

Wow everyone is up really early... anyway good to get a little more involved here at the CA board.  Ive resided mostly on the main board but now amd checking around here daily... Jess

Happy Friday to all!

Thank you Janine for the shoot out I am still a little in disbelief that I signed up to train for the LA marathon.  What was I thinking?  LOL! I keep telling myself I can and will do this, but the negative voices in my head are messing with me......

Today starts my weekend as I am off from work because I have no childcare and I am happy to have another 3 day weekend as work is really not fun these days. 

I wish the IE coffee wasn't so far as I would love to meet everyone, but it is almost 2 hours away from where I live. 

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Morning!!

This morning we all got up and ready and went over to the base hospital for an award ceremony for Mike and some other folks that work there. It was great to see him get formally acknowledged by the command for his year plus of hard work over in Afghanistan!! There was also this civilian lady that was awarded a gold star for 40 YEARS of service to the hospital!  That is committment!

Anywho- going to work in my son's class again this afternoon.  He was so funny yesterday....the look on his face when the teacher introduced me was too cute.  Like "that's MY mom" and then when he would answer a question correctly, he would look over at me and have a look like "did you hear that Mommy?" lol he was so proud of himself. I absolutely LOVE being in the classroom with my kids and I actually enjoy helping the teachers out with all the tedious stuff that you guys have to do.  I spent the hour yesterday collating papers for her.  May not be what some parents would enjoy doing when they think of "helping" in the class- but I look at it this way.....  Whatever makes things easier for the teacher, makes things easier for her to TEACH my child.  You know?

Someone trying to sabotage your work, Janine?  Kinda sounds that way! 

Hope everyone has a great day and an even better weekend!!

Later!
