3 THINGS FOR THURSDAY

Thanks Mom had a stroke in July and has been in and out of hospitals and rehab. She went home and was unable to walk. She has dementia and just survived lung cancer. Thank God my brother is living at her house and trying to take care of her. He has made some big mistakes and the biggest was when she fell and he waited 24 hours to call the ambulance. I hope he has learned a lesson. I took her to the Doctor on Monday and she was unable to stand so he sent us to the ER where we waited 11 hours before they admitted her. This is such a mess. Thanks for the thoughts and prayers I will keep you in mine as well.

Good Morning All

Tia:  hope the shoulder doesnt cause a lot of pain today : Sorry about your Aunt and I know we
all miss open toed shoes!

Julie :  Will continue to Pray for your Mom
Enjoy the massage

Today I am grateful for :

1.  Coworkers who cover for me when I come in late !  Slept thru an hour of the radio alarm;
dad woke me at 6:30  I mumbled thanks then proceeded to sleep another half hour.
Add in Blasted traffic and It was nearly 9:00 when I got here.

2.  Diet lemonade from Chick Filla

3.  my bowling teammates kept me laughing even though my bowling sucked big time

Gotta run :  a bit behind on the work today! ( see # 1) LOL

As strong as your work ethic is and as much as you do to cover for your co-workers, they should be HAPPY to cover for you!!!  But....an hour and a half??  Oh, that's right, bowling's on Wednesday and it's past your bedtime!!!!  LOL!!!

I love that diet lemonade, too!  But...since you don't drink enough - you should get it by the gallon!!!!

Hugs,

T

Darla, Thanks for the prayers. Glad you had a safe trip to Fla. I have never tried the lemonade but I will try it soon. Bowling is just fun and that is great that you have good team mates who keep you laughing even when your bowling sucked. Don't work to hard and have a nice weekend.

Good morning ((( tootsie )))

Sorry the shoulder is not doing better .. but glad it's at least a bit better than yesterday.   Not remembering things clearly is a SCARY feeling ..

I was up before 6 a.m. with a work issue on my mind, so I pulled out the work laptop and searched my email archives to no avail, zipped off an email to my boss of what I 'remembered' but couldn't back up.   Had yet another thought, so I did a search on my hard drive and low and behold I found what I was looking for.   Zipped that off to her with a note at 6:30 a.m. that I was going back to bed.   I've got my work email open and keep checking to see if there are any more questions.   So far ..  none .. and we are going to head up to the 'princess' winery in a bit!!!

I broke down and put on socks and sneakies yesterday .. I went to the wine tasting in flip flops and when Mr Mo headed back down the hill to get his leather jacket, I requested he bring back socks & sneakies and so .. now my feet are covered ... I was hoping to hold off on that until race night .. and then when I get back next week it will be shoes for sure .. I have a couple of new pairs .. with a sling back . and another with a peep toe, but with hose they will be ok in the cooler temps.

Let's see . what am I thankful for ...

1) vacation time

2) vacation time

3) and ..yes .. vacation time

I am in definite decompress mode now .. and even tho I am in touch with the office, it's on my terms ..

Gotta run ..

Hugs, Mo

Hi Moie!

I'm so glad everyone's having a nice time!!!  Working on vacation is different when it's on YOUR terms!!

Have fun at the winery!!!  And definitely have some for me!

Hugs,

Tia

Be assured that I made sure to get you some 'princess' wine!!!   I even got a couple of bags of the wine-a-rita mix, BUT .. we are going to Bob & Jae's on Sunday, so the mix might not make it back to MD ..

Hugs,

Awwww......you are TOO good to me!!  Careful, one might think I'm likeable!! 

Wine-a-rita?? Do tell!!!

MUAH!

Good morning Tia,

I am so sorry about the passing of your aunt. How blessed to be 90.
I am glad to hear that you are feeling better today. I hope you continue to feel better.

Yesterday I had to turn on the heat upstairs. It was 64 degrees inside the house. Today it is 61 degrees downstairs it feels like an Ice box but I am not planning on turning on the heat the downstairs. That propane is expensive! lol So we arte hanging up here and I just go downstairs to prepare food wash clothes and run back up here. lol

Little Gino is home from school for the second day and so is Gianna. Luckily Gianna is feeling better. Jessie called me and told me she is picking up Janiyah a day ealry so that is good I can get one extra day of rest from the "sweet" grand daughter. lol Gotta love her! lol

Today I am grateful for:

1. Flannel PJs, Sweaters, socks and booties! lol

2. Hot Vanilla Chai Spice coffee yum!

3.My lovely friends!


Have a wonderful day everyone!

Ugh!  Poor you!  I'm so tired of hearing about sick people already - and it's not even really started!!!!  KB's doctor keeps running out of the flu vaccines, and since they both have asthma, it's imperative that they get it - yet they won't put them on any kind of list.  I think I'm going to have to break down and just take them to a CVS or something.

Our house hasn't been too bad, but yesterday, we had the oven running all day - Mom's been preparing food and desserts for in between the viewings today and for after the funeral tomorrow.  Mom is taking this death particularly hard - every time one of my grandparent's siblings pass, it just reopens the wound of her parent's passings.  So....her solution is to cook and bake!

I'm glad Jessie's getting Janiyah early - you've had enough and have definitely earned a rest!!

The other day, I bought Happy two outfits - a Santa outfit and a gingerbread man outfit!!!  LOL!!  I think she'll be a gingerbread man for Halloween!  I got them at Target for $2.50 apiece, as opposed to $10 for the squirrel costume I was going to get her!!!  LOL!!!!

MUAH!
