Hello everyone

Well my first day went well.  Everyone is so nice and friendly.  This is more like my kind of place to work. I got a nice warm welcome from everyone.  It's not the quiet and unfriendliness of the last place I worked.  They have free drinks and snacks for employees.  Which is nice for some but the last thing I need is free Reese's Peanut Buttercups (my all time favorite candy bar) tempting me every day...but that is what I will have to do.  I never worked any where they gave you free drinks and snacks.  So yesterday after work I stopped at the grocery store and got apple slices, peanut butter, almonds, and grapes (I like to freeze the grapes).  I figure if I want to snack I will snack healthy!!!  Maybe this stuff will keep my mouth busy and my tummy full. 

Now it's just getting back into the swing of things.  Getting used to being a on a schedule again.  When you're out of work you can sleep when you are tired and get up when you feel like it.  

Nancy- my kitty does the same thing if I'm hurt or when I was crying because I lost my job he would come over and rub up against me like he was trying to console me.  Then just lie next to me.  

Lisa- I'm glad your daughter's temp place is nice.  At least they have a noce place to stay while waiting for things to get fixed.

Well I am up wayyyy to early.  I think I will read for a bit before I get ready.  

Have a good day everyone....bye,

Good Morning.

I find that no matter what day it is, work or not, I still wake up by 6. I think it is called a habit. And, no, I don't ever do an alarm.

I think my chore for today will be to paint the 2 patio tables. The big round ones from the 1950s, that you can put an umbrella on. I decided on a bright red, to go with the grey house.

Crystal, I am happy that you enjoy your new place of employment,

Cristine, you always ave projects going too.

Dawn, I am so glad you are doing better with the injetion.

Nancy, I know that the little furballs think they are our mothers. They want everything to be right.

Debbie, enjoy your summer.

Steven, when are you going to post a picture?

Life is Good,
Hugs,

Everything works right today I will be selling my car this afternoon and going urban CTA warrior.  I have been practicing and of course it takes four times as long to go anywhere as in a car but then you do not have to find a place to park when you get there.  Our shopping cart got turned into a laundry cart so it will be time for a busable and "L"able shopping system.

The car plan is I take my Texas title, my current licence plate sticker reciept, my emissions test and my drivers license along with the buyer to the Secretary of State office on Elston.  I am guessing he also needs to have proof of insurance to transfer title.

So you have been forgiven?

Good Morning Everyone!

It looks like it is going to be a beautiful day here!  That will be nice.  Get out and enjoy it if you can.  I did ok at work yesterday.  Surprisingly, all my callers were really nice despite the full moon.  Maybe I better watch out for today.     My back is a little better this morning.  I had an icepack on it all day yesterday and that seemed to really help.  I called my neurosurgeons office and I have orders for some x rays and an appointment later this month. 

Crystal, I am glad you like you new surroundings at work.  That really makes a HUGE difference.  I could tell that you were not comfortable in the other place.  I am like you and want to enjoy myself at work.  Too formal of an atmosphere would do me in.  I could do without the temptation of the snacks though.  Ugh!

Lisa, it sounds like you found a project already.  The color sounds great for a patio table!  I love those tables!  It will be cute.  It is a perfect day to be outside.  Enjoy!

Dawn, I am glad you are getting around better.  That was a lot of walking at the air show.  I did not even think about that with your foot but you managed so you must be doing a LOT better in that department.  Hang in there. 

Debbie, I am sure you are going to be active this summer as well.  But take some time for yourself as well.

Christine, I hope you survived your return to work.  That is always such a joy (NOT) after a vacation.  That is the worst part of a vacation -- returning and facing reality and seeing what was screwed up while you were away. 

I hope everyone has a great day!

Hi everyone!

Up early today to go to the dentist and then to rehab. My daughter is coming to visit from southern IL. She's a teacher so I told her not to come when I was too sick to enjoy her. Now we'll get a couple of days to visit. She will probably freeze up here compared to the weather in Carbondale!

Yesterday I put on some pants I wore in rehab and they almost fell off. I have lost 20 lbs since I have been home. Yeah! During the time I was so sick I wasn't losing because my body was putting its energy into healing but the doc assured me I would lose again when I could move around and that is exactly whats happening. I'm tickled!

Have a lovely day!

Connie

Good morning Crystal and the rest of Illinois!

Glad to hear that the new job suits you.  I always keep stuff that I can eat in my desk (and SF popsicles in the freezer).  That way "no thank you" is easier to day.

I am at lunch and (not) loving every minute of work.  Oh well, it is what it is.  Maybe something better and more suitable will come along.

I am going to try to get into the garden tonight to pull weeds and see what is happening.  I know we have radishes and lettuce coming up.

Gotta get back.......

Everyone have a spectacular day!

 

Tell someone that you love them!

Good evening all,
Just a fast fly by before I go to sleep.
Today was a wonderful day here for my family.  Today my baby graduated 8th grade.  I now have both kids in high school.  My babies are growing up!!
Well all I will write more in the am!
Have a great sleep!
Debbie
