Thursday Roll Call

Good Morning,

We need the rain, so it's a good thing. It woke me up about 5:30 this morning, and continued until about 7. Now it is just gray, and anyone in the chicago area should be getting it shortly.

I am hoping to finish painting the porch swing today. I went to paint the back of it yesterday, to discover another wasp nest on the back. I was not a happy camper! This is the 2nd or 3rd one this summer. Why they want to build thier nest on a moving swing, for the 2nd year in a row is beyond me.

I have a few things to do today, then I will work on my scrap books and rug. I am motivated to finish both before I go back to work next week.

One of my co-workers called last night to tell me that her son (19) and hubby were in a bad car accident on Monday. Hubby escaped with a broken rib and some bruises, anf her son is in the hospital with a broken arm, crushed leg, and head trauma.  A car came out of a side road and t-balled them.

Last year at about this same time, another co-workers  huybby almost died from a fall. He is now on total disability. Hopefully, this is not going to happen next year.

Crystal, give Amanda and Charles a hug for me. They soon will be off on another adventure, when they start their life in Washington state.

Hugs,

Hello neighbors....

Well I'm at day 7 of my ALL liquid diet.... I'm half done... 7 days more to to go!!!! I admit yesterday I had a slip up.  :( I had 1/2 a cup of low fat cottage cheese.....I know my bad, however I figure it wasn't a cheeseburger?? right...LOL I just needed something to chew.. I was all messed up yesterday. I had to fast for 12 hrs I had all my surgical testing I was nauseated from the upper GI and drinking TWO things of barium.. not just one, plus I had to swallow this "pop rock" crystals, which add so much gas to my tummy.... it was 2pm before I could have ANYTHING... so I grabbed the cottage cheese and had a little bit. The rest of the day I was on track!!! 

The rain did wake me...  slept like a baby..LOL Working around house today to get projects out of the way so when I come home after surgery I don't have to worry about it!!

Hugs

I had harassment training at work then a fast day at work, meeting at another PD and then we went Cantigny for a members reception. I am home and tired and am going to work on my Smile Box creation for our photos from Alaska.
