Tuesday Roll Call

ahh okay, I remember you telling us about it now.  my brain isn't functioning well lately...lol

Tyler is pretty much cleared up, but he's still taking the meds for another 7 days!  They really bother his stomach though because it's strong stuff...poor kid, between this and his elbow...lol

Good Morning.

I am in the same boat as all of you, wanting the sun to come out and play with us, not warting to go to work, Stayed up a bit to late last nigh****ching Oprah.

Christine, good for you, we all need a me day once in a while.

I will leave for work shortly. I need to get gas and run a couple of errands before hand.

Have a great day, stay dry and warm. Stay safe.

Hugs,
 LISA

Not much except draining the basement again!  Since the farmers have been laying drainage pipe the last few years we have about 2 feet of water every time it rains. Now I do not know if that's the cause. I think at the rate we keep getting rain maybe we can have a indoor pool party!
We were w/o electricity most of the night. They got it back on as I was going out the door to go drive the bus.
I am having some severe tummy discomfort. Pain from around the navel area up and I am having some heartburn to go along with it, and nauseous. I might have to make a trip to see Dr R if it does not let up. Yesterday it hurt so bad I could not stand up to walk.  I am trying a liquid to soft diet today and see how that works out.
I have been using a lot of splenda in ice tea maybe that's the culprit? I gave it up to see.

Have a safe dry day!

Hey Christine maybe we can build that ARK together and just sail away!

Good morning Christine and the rest of Illinois!

Glad to see you can take a "me" day.  Mine will be Friday.

I am working today, then home to start dinner and work out with Liv.

She went to practice to try out for cheerleading last night and she likes it!  She is the one that suggested working out, so I am very happy.  Maybe, just maybe, this will be a turning point for her?  Oh well, I am going to take advantage of it while I have it.

I am trying to get the birthdays planned out.  Liv will be 13 on Monday, then David will be 15 on the 16th.  Birthday time at our house is always an adventure!  I try very hard not to make them share a birthday, but it can be tough sometimes.

It looks to be a busy weekend coming up for us!  Friday, I have to take Liv to the ear doctor in Madison.  While up there, we are going to go to Trader Joe's and Flat Top Grill for her birthday.  Saturday, we have to help with the band's flower sale fund raiser in the morning, then help David get ready for Prom on Saturday night.  Sunday, we are planning on coming in to Rockford to celebrate Liv's birthday with her grandparents and Amber.  No rest for us!

That's it for me today, and it is bright and sunny here, so I am sending it your way!

I have not seen that sunshine yet! It is supposed to be mostly cloudy here all day! I just hope Thursday the weather can hold off on the rain till after 3pm. Our 1st and 3rd grades are going to Jubilee State Park and a new place called Camp Akita to plant about 300 trees. I am taking one of the buses, the one my GS is on and I will be helping to plant the 100 trees our group has. After we get them planted and the kids have the hot dogs it can rain .
I just love Flat Top Grill, but its a hit and miss for me if I can eat it. I usually have enough to bring home for 2 more meals!

Rest when u can!

Well, I think I should check in and let you wonderful folks know that I am still around.

Things have been crazy at work, home  and with school.  I just finished my last finance class yesterday and have now moved into accounting.  two majors down one to go...graduation in 1 year.  So close I can taste it.

I am as of today, 16 months out and I am now down to 137 lbs.  I am trying to not loose any more weight, but it just happens. 

I have been having issues of being able to focus on work and school, and just not getting my brain to shut down.  So I went to the dr. and I have been diagnosed with ADHD, go figure so I will be taking medication to help with that. 

If anyone twitters, my id is WWhitener. 

I am lurking so just hollar for me.
