Tuesday Roll Call...

Good Morning my Illinois friends... What are you all up to today? I am going to go to the Rec Center this morning and try to walk on the treadmill I have yet to add Tuesday and Thursday... I am enjoying the warmer weather that's for sure! I hope everyone has a great day! (((Hugs))) Jenn

Good morning Jenn and the rest of Illinois! I am back after a very long week.  I stayed with my aunt after my uncle died on the 20th.  The memorial was last Friday evening and it was awesome to see how many people's hearts he had touched in the 2.5 years he was here in Rockford.  They almost overflowed the room at the funeral home!  Her first night alone was this last Sunday and she did OK.  It is going to be tough for her (and all of us)--he will be sorely missed. On Saturday night, I had a bit of a break and attended my husband's Christmas party.  We get to sty over at a hotel and had a nice enough time. Yesterday, I returned to work only to get a call at 8:30 am saying that my daughter was vomiting and I had to go home and take care of her.  She seems to have some sort of stomach bug.  She was not yet awake when I left the house this morning, and I think Todd is going to stay home with her today, unless she made a miraculous recovery.  Hopefully, I can get a full day's work in today. I got back to my workout this morning and that felt good. My plan for today is to catch up at work, then stop by to visit my aunt for a minute before heading home.  I hope it works out that way, but I just heard that we have a blizzard warning for this afternoon, so we will see. Thanks for everyone's thoughts and prayers while I was away!

Good Morning my friends.  It's Tuesday and I have to go back to work today, I have no idea how many days I have to work this week.  I do know that I will most likely be going to the Dr for this lump sometime later in the week.  I spoke with them yesterday and they said give the meds a couple of more days. 
We are having major issues with Austyn lately and he brought home a horrible report card yesterday.  I have pretty much put this in Mike's lap at this point.  (for those that don't know, Austyn is my stepson and Mike hasn't done much to help me with his son and now I am pretty much done for a while.)  It's causing way too much stress for me and I have other things to worry about.

Anyway, I hope that everyone has a wonderful day.  It's starting out warm, but going to get COLD again.  High of 17 tomorrow...this stinks! lol

Well walking when it is warmer out is much nicer.  also I have started listening to my podcasts again.  That is doubly nice.  I missed my friends shows.  It also makes the walk go that much faster.  I didn't get lost today when I was on the EL like I did yesterday.  That made for a lot less rushed walk in to work.  I am not looking forward to going home when the temps are susposed to be dropping.  Well spring is on its way. Only a few more days until weigh in day.  I hope I can still be losing.  I really don't want to have to go in for another adjustment this soon.  I just had one three weeks ago, but have lost almost 30 pounds since then.  I am finally dropping weight and I think I might finally be in the 220's now.  I haven't weighed this little since I was in college, and never in my married life.  I just wish the wife would notice.  Ok enough moping, time to get to work. Have a good day everyone.  Enjoy the temps while they are here.

Good Morning Jenn & all of IL - Enjoy the weather while you can.  Temps will be dropping and snow is on its way.  By this evening temp will be zero and tomorrow we are supposed to have 25 below zero wind chill.  BRRRRRRR Well, I was pretty ticked off that they changed my hours at work but so far it seems to be working out really well and giving me ample time to workout in the morning, shower, pick-up/drop off dry cleaning, swing thru and get my java and into work by 8:30. I made it to the gym today.  What's everyone else doing to get moving? Have a great day! Christina  

I just got home from work after a blustery walk from the PD. That weather - whether we like it of not is on its way. I am having a snack of some cottage cheese then I am going to futz around here and there in the house. If I see something that needs to be picked up and put away then I will do that, no real plans for much. Christine

Hi Everyone. I was unable to get on at work today, way way to busy. Stopped at Walmart on the way home, but that was my excitment today.  The wind is starting to howl, and we are getting a few flakes, I know I am staying in this evening.  Hugs
