Tuesday Roll Call

Renee, your day is just around the corner. Time will go really fast and before you know it you will be posting that thread "Well I am off to the hospital" or something like that.

Good morning everyone! The snow basically missed us too.  We got maybe a 1/2 inch to an inch in Rock City, less in Rockford.  Doesn't bother me a bit!!!! When is Dave's next interveiw?  Is he looking forward to it?  I agree about the clean house thing.....I am doing the same as we will be in Madison all weekend.  I hope we have as much fun as you will!  We are planning on helping Amber celebrate her 30th birthday, and our young neighbor's birthday is tomorrow, so I think I will make a sugar free dessert to share in their honor. I am working today and need to run to Wally World for some supplies.  Olivia came home last night with stuff she needs for a party at school on Thursday.....nothing like a bit of notice, heh?  I have a pot roast in the oven, so dinner is pretty much set. Barry----CONGRATULATIONS on the jeans!  I know the feeling and it is wonderful!  Have fun going through your old clothes! Pam---I CAN'T BELIEVE that you were outside Saturday night and Sunday morning.....I am glad that you managed to stay warm, or at least are thawed out by now!  I am SOOOO looking forward to getting out of these 4 layers.  I am tired of feeling like the kid in "A Christmas Story". Jazz and Barb are having their surgeries today and has anyone heard how Measha did yesterday?  I am thinking of them all today. Everyone stay wam and safe today.....gotta go for now!

Ya know if I could have found one of those face mask hats I would have been in it!   Cold beats out vanity, hands down!!!!   LOL   Gotta tell you it was COLD!     Pam

Dave was supposed to meet with some guy this week. They know that we are going away this weekend. He will hear eventually. He had to call on the first interview when to expect to find out what his travel plans were etc. He has done all the follow up with thank you letters, it is now in God's hands as to when he will be called again. We will go to the Dells and relax. I have a spa treatment scheduled and I choose a room with a hot tub in it so we can relax.  CB

Good morning IL~ Not doing much today.  I will go see my dad tonight after the kids get picked up.  Thursday I have Maddie Valentines day party to do at her school and then my ultrasound at night.  It is spitting some light snow here.  I have a major headache.  Doe's anyone else get tired of doing the same ol' thing day after day.  I am finding myself getting irritated very easy.  I used to have patience of a saint.  The stuff w/ my dad and everything else is really weighting on me.  I think I am going to put a ad in the paper to try and get rid of our *****hilla.  I am so sick of taking care of it and know one else giving too **its about it!  Plus I am going to come up w/ a budget soon.  Ryan and I have NEVER had a budget and we thought it might be a good idea to start having one, because we have to pay for collage and a wedding some day.  I am still on top of the world from the good news I got last week.  I will feel better when I get the approval letter in the mail.  I think I am going to do a scrapbook page with it and then frame it!  I better get going a hear a rumble in little Andy's pants!  He has some nasty gas going on!!!!!!!!

It is called burn out.  CB

Good Morning IL.  Well I have today off of work because we are so slow, I will go in tomorrow, have Thursday off (for my dr's appts) and then go in Friday.  Not a bad week.

I have taken the kids to school this morning and been grocery shopping already.  Now I am getting ready to check the school message boards for me to get my credit for reading them.  No other real plans for today though, taking it easy.  I might take a nap, I didn't sleep good last night at all...don't know why.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day!!  stay safe and warm!

I sometimes wish that I had the freedom to not have to go into work every single day and that I could pop over to the store for groceries. I guess that I am looking forward to part time work in the near future. I am tired of working full time. I am coming up on 29 years at IPD and am looking forward to the proverbial light at the end of the tunnel and retiring. Though all in all I would miss my salary and paid vacation time. Chris

That's funny Chris, because I can't wait til I am closer to being done with school and can work full time as a Vet Tech! LOL

HI !!! Everyone Well, here it is Tuesday, and I am sitting here at work not wanting to do much of anything today.  While my scale has not moved much, I know that I have dropped inches because my pants are getting baggy and I have had to move up a notch on the bra hooks.  I made an appointment with my PCM for 2/22, as I have been really tired lately, so I want to have my blood drawn and labs ran to see if there are any defeciencies.  I have been working on getting my 60 grams of protein, and while I do not make it every day, I do get close.  I have been shopping for a new car and think that I will be getting it around April sometime.  I am waiting for my Tax return and my annual bonus to use as a down payment.   I have found that I no longer like potatoes, as they leave a bad taste in my mouth.  Go figure, as this is one thing that was my favorite to eat.  The other thing I no longer like the taste of is scrambled eggs.    Does this go away?   The other thing that I have been craving is something fizzy, like a diet coke.  I am almost 7 weeks out, and would like to have some....but I can not find any where in my diet notes of if/when I could have it.  Does anyone know? Well, I am off and running.  It is almost lunch time and I need to get my act together to go to the gym.
