Thursday Morning Coffee

Thursday wake up time!
Good morning everyone in Michigan. I hope there is no frost for those in the northern part of the state. Most of us have our delicate annuals in for the season.
What's in the wake-up mug? Decaf and black is in order this morning. Then its off to water aerobics..
I need to get something off my chest, so the QOTD is:
What is your rant?
I am getting tired  of gas prices going up, again. It is $2.85 here as of yesterday and supposed to be $3.00 by the weekend! WHY????
I am tired of it being so cool. I want 80 degrees soon!
Now I feel better
Have a good one!
Deb

Hi Deb!

I am glad its Thursday!  No frost by me today.  But it is chilly.  I am drinking iced tea this morning.  Getting ready to head to Chelsea to see the most precious baby boy ever

QOTD:  I try not to focus on too much negative, but there are some things that tick me off. 

I hate atm fees.  I hate when my 7-eleven doesnt have my slurpee flavor.  I hate really slow drivers.  I hate only one check out lane being open at the grocery store.  I hate expired yogurt at the grocery store.  I hate construction traffic.  I hate people that park on my side of the street though there are signs posted not to park.  I hate that the cops dont ticket those cars Ever.  I hate people that don't leash their dog.  I hate people that don't pick up their dog's crap.  I hate people who bring aggressive dogs to the park.  I hate that the scorchers flavored cheese curls at 7/11 dont have a warning label.  I hate that I cant get all the dog hair off my carseats.  I hate that the government hasnt approved my college funding yet.  I hate when the toilet overflows and the plunger is no where to be found.

okay, all done.  I dont really Hate.  Just dislike.  wait! I hate when my dogs shreds an entire roll of toilet paper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

el diablo blanco!

Howdy neighbors.
I'm drinking purple water this morning and waiting until my pouch is empty so I can take my iron pill.  Still doing my 5 a day fruit and veg and taking the iron with no problems in the bathroom department.  Just in case you were wondering :)

Ok, since B did a list I will too:  Rants-Bugs.  I hate all kinds.  There was a giant green wormy/caterpiller thing in my office doorway this morning.  I went outside until one of the shop guys got it for me.  Ick.  The Secretary of State's office.  Why is it every trashy gross person in Michigan goes to the same office at the same time I do?  Plus size clothing and the stores that sell it.  I know it's summer, but did anyone stop to think that we might want a shirt that isn't sleeveless?  I can't find anything with any kind of a sleeve on it until September.  My mom.  She asked me twice the other day what she could get at the bakery for me to eat for breakfast on our trip.  I told her I would just bring a protein bar, but get whatever anyone else wanted and that was fine with me.   Then she called me last night from the bakery asking what I wanted to have for breakfast (again) and what I wanted to snack on.   Uggghhhh!

Ok, done.  Thanks.  Now I'm off to work, which is another rant, but I'll spare you guys today!  Have a good one!

Good morning!

My coffee wasn't made for me this morning , yup - that's why I'm divorcing him - lol, not really...  So, I had to go to my favorite coffee place and get a decaf, SF mint/chocolate lattee - yum!! Had them mix my vanilla protein in with it and it was great!

Rant?  Well, honestly I'm in a pretty darn good mood today.  Bought some new clothes last night at Old Navy and bought an XS skirt - go figure, and I'm wearing it along with a few other new items - and I feel "springy" - even thought it was COLD this morning.  We didn't have frost at our house last night, and I have my annuals in too....

But if I must rant - construction.  It bottlenecks up the road.  They're going to repave US31 here and there's NOTHING WRONG WITH IT!!  There are other roads that should be designated as dirt roads, they're so bad...

Good morning all!

It's my fake latte again this morning.  Need to do better on getting my water though so will make that a focus. 

Rant of the Day -- protein, water, calories, vitamins.... I swear my brain hurts with all this crap I gotta think about.  My 18 month labs came back showing low protein levels, so the PA wants me on 150g protein/day. Also my ferritin is low so trying to eat more beef/steak based on the doc's recommendation but it seems silly to me.   My GoWear Fit is showing that I'm not eating enough calories which is why I'm stalled again... so trying to increase my food intake.  I've been slacking on water intake the past several days and need to make that a focus.  Forgot to pack my vitamins yesterday and nearly forgot again today - what's up with that?  I think my brain is in WLS overload right now and I just want to not think about it for a while. 

And I'm with you Deb.  It's JUNE for crying out loud?!  What the heck is the deal with frost and 60-degree days?  I want summer! 

Pam, I am with you!
I am so sick of thinking about every single thing I eat or am going to eat.  This whole iron thing is driving me nuts*.  Because I am constantly hungry,  I eat all day, so there is never a time that is good to take the iron.  But I do it because I know I need to.  Some nights I just want to eat a normal dinner and go on with my life instead of timing food and supplements.   Ugh!

Why can't we be those people that just had WLS and lost a ton of weight and are normal now?  Huh?  Why?  Ok.  End of crying.  Now back to life.  LOL

*A pirate walks in to a bar with a ship's steering wheel hanging around his neck down to his crotch.  The bartender says "Buddy, isn't that wheel hanging there bothering you?"  The pirate replies "Aye!  It's driving me nuts!"

omfg! thats hilarious!  not your iron, the pirate joke.

Hello  . . . today is my Friday and I don't have to be back to wor****il afternoon shift next
Wednesday . . . YIPPEE!

I didn't have any frost this morning but the air conditioning here at work is set to auto start on June 1st and it's freezing in here - I actually went in the trunk of my car to the Goodwill bag and took out a big sweater to get warm . . .  I hope summer goes until October!

QOTD- Tailgater's  I can't figure out why every young girl thinks they don't need any space between your bumper and their front end! 
My daughter lives in Switzerland so she keep me in check on the gas prices - they are still paying $6.00 give or take for a gallon.  My dad laughs and says that we are on the summer rate now. 

Enjoy the sun today!

Morning all~
There is alot of Frost around here this morning.  Gimme a break already with the cold.

QOTD~ Oh.... how to choose just one.... My biggest rant.  People who do their jobs half azzed.  I swear they are usually so busy criticizing others that they cannot get their own jobs done.   ERRRRR
