Good Morning Michiganders.

Well I had a WOW moment yesterday. I shoveled snow. Not just a little around the doors and steps, but the whole darn thing. I live on a corner lot so I have double the side walks. I shoveled from the back fence up the side of the house and across the front, then the side entrances and the drive way. All the old fashioned way. LOL (With a snow shovel). I will probably go out and do it again in a few moments.

Going to make some protein hot chocolate, then have some yogurt and granola later.

QOTD: have you ever had a dream that woke you up and it kept bothering you all the day after?

Mine was about my friends mother who passed away before my surgery.  I help my friend care for her. Then my friend moved on in her life and left me behind. Well to make a long story short.
we have been having weird things happen in our life. Like the power outage. before that the bathroom lite would just quit working, and then miraculously start to work again. Then last week the basement lite did the same thing. last Saturday when DH was home he was working on our truck and had the keys in his pockett and the started kept making sounds like it was attempting to start. before that one time I was getting out of the truck and the keys were in my hand and the radio in the truck kept playing.  The other night the TV blinked off and then on like a fuse was blown but not.  Well Last night I dreamed that my friends mom was in the bathroom and could not figure out how to turn on the light. She kept asking where is Susie? I am still upset about how my friend treated me after helping her with her mother. But I think her Mother is wanting me to check on her well being.  This really sucks cause My friend didn't even call to see how my surgery went or anything else.

I need to ponder on this awhile.

Have a wonderful winter day.

Hi everyone.  Sorry I been missing lately.  No reason, just been busy.  I had my protein coffee just now.  I am stuck at 211 since middle of December UGH!  I need to get the scale moving, and not up and down like it has been.  My levels are low again.  My skin is dry and the corners of my mouth are cracking.  I heard that is a sign of zinc defiency. My zinc was low too.  What do you think?  I bought some zinc from the drug store and the pills are huge.  I then ordered some bariatric ones and they are huge too.

QOTD-Saturday I dreamt I had a man in my life (it was my BFF's man lol).  I woke up alone as usual.  I have been alone since 2001 so somedays it sticks with you.  I was down all day.  Usually I do ok with the fact that I am single.

 Good morning  

I'm up but plan to go back to bed.  Got up with the alarm this morning to decide if I was going to work or not based on the Detroit area forecast/snow depths.  After opening the door to see 8" in my driveway - plus a huge drift along the side of my car, I decided to call out today.  

Baker College was cancelled last night, so I didn't have to deal with class last night.  It's closed again this morning but I anticipate evening classes will be open --- probably won't drive down to Auburn Hills for class though.  

I'm drinking some Purple Smash for now.  Will probably make a yummy breakfast later.  Maybe carbquik pancakes with blackberries?

QOTD -- When I was in college I had a horrible and vivid dream about a friend.  It was Thanksgiving weekend and he was suppose to stay on campus, but I dreamt he drove home but got in a horrible car accident.  Got up that morning and tried calling him but found out he'd gone home.  So of course I worried all weekend until he got back to school safe and sound.

Hi Mary,
Nice to wake up to a Snow Day and not have to deal with the drive north thru the backroads. Still in my robe and slippers, drinking my coffee..
Will be shoveling in a little bit as I will probably be babysitting the grandbaby this morning.

QOTD-I have been having weird dreams lately that seem to be about my parents who are deceased. I remember one where I was traveling with my Mother and we couldn't make our flight out of Amsterdam for a year and I wanted to get back home so bad...
Too strange.

Good Morning everyone!
The boys are doing the happy dance since school was called last night.
I brought work home, but I left it in my car, and my car is buried in the driveway.  I'm too lazy to go get it.  Maybe later.

QOTD-I have weird dreams all night long every night.  I think it's hereditary because my grandma is the same way.  I have a lot of dreams about my ex MIL that passed away.  I probably sound crazy, but I really believe wherever she is, she's having fun torturing me in my sleep.  

I wish I could say I was going to do something productive, but I'm not!  I'm off to eat my oatmeal on the couch and cover up with a blankie and watch TV! ****il my boss calls with a dumb question just to bug me!)

Have a great day!

I haven't been outside since yesterday morning and I don't plan on going anywhere today.  Don't have to go anywhere until Friday.  I may be crazy by then!!

QOTD:  I generally don't dream or at least don't remember them.  If I do remember them, they are usuaaly really bizarre and I only remember the bizarre bits.

Good Morning.

I do enjoy the fact that I am in here and the snow is out there !  LOL  I can't even help with the clean up.  Drinking my black coffee slowly, not moving much today.  I go to the Dr's office this afternoon, hopefully they will remove some of these tubes.  They called me at 7:30 this morning to see how I was and to see if I wanted to cancel since they know we are on the other side of the state from them.  We plan on going no matter what!  So they have had a lot of cancellations and they told us to come in earlier if we want, my original appt is 4;30 so we are going to try to go earlier, DH has to work this morning and thinks he might be done by noon

QOTD- Yes, I have had dreams that bothered me, they came true also.  My Father died at 45 when I was only 11.  The closer my DH got to that age the more I dreamt that he died, I would wake up crying.  Well, it came true, he also died young, he was only 48.  

Stay safe and warm today !

After Noon All,

Kids were happy with all the snow.  They want a snow day tomorrow as well.  They have Friday,Monday and Tuesday off for mid winter break.  They say it would be better to have off Thursday as well.  My boys shoveled my drive  and they my dads as well.  My dad has a snow blower at his place so it was a little easier over there.  I think I might take the kids to the movies today.  The youngest wants to see the Tooth Fairy with the Rock in it.  I'm sure I'll be board to death. 

QOTD:  Most of the time I do not remember my dreams.  I did once wake up mad at DH and hit him in his sleep.  In my dream he left me.  I was mad all day at him for that one.  Funny how you can have such strong emotions from your dreams.  Although he did not find it funny.What fond memories.

Hey Everyone!

I am home for the night now.. I do not have to go anywhere until tomorrow afternoon so we are gonna sit back and jus****ch the snow for now.

I ended up driving all the way out for visitation this moring and the Mom did not even show up... I was ticked off... The roads were not as bad as I thought though and I got there super early and ended up walking through Wal Mart for awhile... But since the Mom did not show up we ended up going and running our errands at Meijer and Target... I am stocked on diapers.. I got some good deals. I got alot accomplished and now the boys are down for a nap and I have to put it all away! LOL

QOTD: I used to have weird dreams but not much lately.. I think I am to tired when I go to sleep to really dream anything... LOL I do daydream about a Disney vacation though! ROFL
