Good Morning Monday

Good Morning Calif.........

I have not had the time to read the post going back to see if any one posted about our coffee in Redlands, and what a wonderful time we had.

Its so nice just sitting around talk and catching up. After everyone left, Monica, Steph, Mike and I sat around talking and then we when to lunch. I have not seen Monica in a long time and we had about 45 mins with just the two of us, why Steph we getting phone check, WOW!! did we have a  lot to talk about. It was very nice.

After the coffee, I was supose to go to work, but I didn't, infact I didn't go all weekend. I had a bad sore throat so I spent most of the rest of day in bed. I woke up Sunday and thought about going in to work, then rolled over and went back to sleep. :-D Today my throat is still sore but not as bad.

OK so what do you have planned for today? As for me, I should run 5 miles, do it as a light workout. So I guess I will do that. Keep everything on take.

I wish you all a great day.

Good Morning Lu and Cali Friends,
I am glad you had a good time at the coffee. It is always nice to get together with friends. I am excited about our Apple Hill gathering on Sat. I hope you feel better. There seems to be a flu going around that starts our with a sore throat.

Today I am going to take care of my DH. A week ago last Saturday he hurt his back, then it would feel better and then go into spasms again. Last night he could not even stand up so he FINALLY went to the doctor this morning. I am afraid that I was pretty hard on him last night about putting off going to the doctor for so long. So that is what I am doing today. I sure hope he feels better soon.

I hope everyone has a great day!

Afternoon everyone!!

Today has already been a busy day, we finished painting the bathroom, all thats left is the baseboards and putting everything back together, Had a pedicure done, Going to the dr at 3 to get our flu shots then off to modesto tonight for a support group meeting, we are meeting a friend there that i havent seen in a while :-) Next on my painting project is my bedroom and i think i will attempt that next week.... i hate painting but i needed a change, On the upside of everything I think my stall is over, I lost 5 pounds in 2 days :-) whooohooo, I need to do something about my knee so i can walk more geez.

Elizabeth, im sure you werent to hard on hubby, men are so stubborn and hate to go to the dr, waiting a week prolly wasnt the best thing as he could have torn something and be in more pain than he needs to be, let me know if i can help with anything!

Thanks Susan, he has spent the afternoon sleeping. He was up most of the night. So I am glad he is getting rest and since he is I am!

Have fun tonight!

Hello to Lu and all of California,

I know the morning is over, but thought I'd grab a second before getting back to work after lunch to say hi.

Saturday's coffee was lots of fun.  Just a relaxing time to catch up with everyone and we planned our next few outings. 

Apple picking/shopping in Oak Glen on the 16th, Octoberfest in Big Bear on the 30th and possibly the Diabetes 5K Walk in Palm Springs on November 13th.  Mike and/or I will be making regular posts about all of these, so those interested please watch.  They are all no expense activities, unless of course you buy things at the different stores or make a donation to the Diabetes Foundation.  I'm not sure how that particular one works yet.  Mike is looking into it.

Our goal is to just get people together for fun, inexpensive activities.  If you want to spend money, fine.  If you don't and just want to come hang out with us, all the better.  I know everyone is watching their pennies now, so finding ways to have fun for no upfront cost is what we are trying to come up with.  Oh and that reminds me.  I almost forgot, we would like to get a group together to join us in December to watch the Newport Beach Boat Parade.  Mike and I have gone the last several years and it is really a nice evening.  Again no expense unless you decide to get something to eat, or buy something at the stores.  Mike and I like to take the ferry over to Balboa and walk around looking at all the homes decorated.  They really go all out there and it is a great walk and another vantage point of watching the boats as they parade around the island. 

So now that I've rambled on and on, I must get back to work.  I hope everyone is having a terrific day.  This cooler weather is definitely a wonderful change. Let's enjoy it while it lasts.

Hi All,

Better late then never eh!! What a day it was. Work started off kinda slow, at least for the first few hours. We had 4 empty beds, so only 8 patients. Of course I was the lucky one to be open for an admit. Got 1 at 9, and rushed him off the operating room by 10:30. I love when you look at the clock and can't believe that 2 hours have gone by. Ended up giving up one patient at 3, because we were getting 2 more patients, and I was being nice, that the nurse coming in wouldn't have to have 2 admits. I can't wait to go back and do it all again tomorrow(NOT). Worked with a good crew of people today, which is good when your busy. I hope everyone has a fabulous day tomorrow.
