Good Morning Randy and fellow Michigan group. I am drinking protien coffee this morning and off to do my walking tape. Still recovering from foot surgey so it will not be alot of walking but trying to get back in the grove. Enjoy your day.

Good Morning...
Yes it is great to be alive!  I am having my decafe vanilla tea and planning my day.  I will start with my exercise on my gazelle.  If I don't exercise first I run out of time in the day.  I have a bum knee so it works great, easier than walking right now.  Although I can walk, it starts to swell when I go too long.  I have been working on rebuilding a computer, so far I have replaced the memory, then decided to put the new hardrive in it and for some reason the darn thing wont' recognize the new sata drive.  That will be a challenge, but no hurry, its just an extra that I decided to try to revive.
I will be going out of town on Friday for the weekend, so I have to get planning what to bring.  Also, I will pop into the office's and make sure everyone is behaving and answer some questions.  My DH and I own a commercial printing company,an art gallery, an automotive business, and an aviation business, and thank goodness we have the worlds greatest people working for us!  They pretty much run them now....SO there is my day, and I am sure other things will come up that need attention, never a dull moment in our lives let me tell you.  My favorite office is the art gallery, (which is my passion, seems I am an artist, photographer, and custom picture framer) thats where I usually hang my hat. 
I hope I am not over sharing, just rattling on.  I do have a very busy life, and love all the people I work with and truly care for them all.

Good Morning all! I'm at work sneeking a peek at this site! Hope everyone had a good weekend. What exactly is protein coffee? Are you just putting protein powder is your coffee?

I mix vanilla protein powder with some cold water just to un-lump it.  Then I heat it in the microwave and add it to my black coffee.  It makes it taste like specialty coffee from Starbucks.  Good.  If I am running out, I make it then add it to ice, for iced coffee....thats good too.

What kind of vanilla powder do you use?

I just bought a huge tub of Max Protein Vanilla at GNC and I think it tastes HORRIBLE!  I was doing the AnyWhey, but then that got old too. 

I have tried some of the Max, it is pretty sweet tasting.  I do use it in my cottage cheese crepe recipe. (kinda like pancakes).   Anyway what I have been using I am not sure of the name sorry, I actually think I purchased it at Meijers.  I got tired of the big round tubs that the protein comes in and bought myself some clear canisters at Kohls, and put my vanilla, chocolate, and plain in them on the counter. Its easy to get to, and doesn't look bad having them out. 

Evening- I am drinking protein coffee as I type.   When you mocrowave your protein it doesnt like explode?  I use anywhey and have to use half and half to make it not so hot.  The mix in my any whey.  It tastes great and I dont have to worry about buying crap I don't like.  WHen I have mocrowaved it like exploded....lol

About the whey exploding?  ha, Ihave never heated it much, just to warm it up a bit.  Havent experienced that yet...OMG, what a mess.Sorry I wasn't more clear on timing.

Morning all!
I am at home today!  The teachers in our district are on strike, so I had to stay home with the kids.  Don't have a clue what I'm going to do after today......maybe I'll drive them up to Randy's and he can put them to work LOL

So no school for the kids, going to get in trouble at work for not going, it's cold and rainy and those 3 lbs. I thought I lost last week?  They showed up when I weighed myself this morning.  In 4 days I put 3 lbs. back on.  Uggghhhh!!!!!!

I had my TT consult on Friday.  I am going to schedule surgery in February with Dr. Alderman at U of M.  I'm totally scared, but that's a long way off.

Hope you all have a grand day.
