Good morning! It's Tuesday... Let's chat!

Good morning all!

Where are ya'll at lately? Busy with holiday stuff and work stuff and goofing off stuff? Come out and play today!

I started my morning with 12 tubes of blood being drawn for my 3-year labs. I always get a chuckle when the lab tech freaks out when I hand her my lab request. It took her forever to get her stuff organized and finally take my blood.

Got to work and mixed up Kristy's Vanilla Caramel Protein Tea, so I'm enjoying that right now. A bit later I'll have a yogurt with some Fiber One twigs. What's in  your cup?

QOTD: What's your favorite Christmas carol and why? Got a link to it?


Mine -- The Little Drummer Boy because I love the mental image I get in my head when I hear it. A boy wants to give something special to Jesus but he can't afford a gift, so the only thing he can give is his skill and talent on the drum.  One of my favorite renditions is by Harry Connick, Jr. Listen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4N7asDPRxmo

Have a good day all!
Pam

Hi Pam and Mary,

Yep, just very busy at work and at home.  It's month end (again!) for me so I'm busy at work.  and with the boys having their surgery in two weeks, I'll be out of the office for a few days so I'm trying to get ready for that.  They started their liquid diets on Sunday!!  I tried to do it with them....lasted til mid morning, then i needed FOOD!!  Oh well, I tried! 

My favorite Christmas song is Oh Holy Night and The Christmas shoes.  HEre's the link, but I"m not very computer savvy so I'm sure when you click on it, it won't open - LOL

Hae a great day everyone!

AWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Geese Nan You just had to go and make me cry!

LOL! HereI am crying like a blobering idot!

Hi, Michigan.  I have been away and its good to see some familiar faces here.  Hope you are all doing well. 

Just got home from work, stopped by the funeral home on the way because a friends' mom died.  I put chili in the crock pot before work, so I just had some with cheese melted on top.  Yum!  I don't like spicy food and I always make my chili with mild seasoning.  I'm catching up on e-mail and trying to talk myself into walking on the treadmill. 

I have my 6 month checkup tomorrow - although it is really like 5 and half months.  I had them draw the blood last week so I could talk to them about my labs.  I was iron deficient around 2.5 months, so we'll see if the extra iron is working...  Good thing they did the blood before my period started...

Hey Friends:
Today... I did NOT want to get out of bed!  I took Justice to school, and headed over to the gym.  I saw one of Dr H's patients, but didnt say anything to him- I don't know how he feels about it..
So I did the 30 minute workout and then 30 minutes on the elliptical.  It was really good.  Came home and showered, heated up some leftover (like the 4th time I've heated it up!) chili and took off for work.  the chili made my chest hurt...

I drank my protein before the gym.. forgot that.  LOL 

Work was a pain in my A$$.  I'm in insurance.  One of my customers was killed in a car accident last night.  It just broke my heart.  I feel so bad for her family.  And, I have a BIG claim now.  The $ is no biggie, that's what insurance is for... but sheesh.... then just everything else today.  I dunno, sometimes I feel really down about work.  My mom owns the agency and she expects the world out of me.    I know it's good that she trusts me, and thinks I'm amazing but sometimes I just don't wanna.

I picked up a shift at the bar for Friday night.  The husband wants tires for his quad for Christmas, so I best make a few bucks to cover that. 

So back to today.  I had some cottage cheese for lunch.  that was okay.  I am pretty much over cottage cheese anymore.

Had a spiced pear carbmaster after the kiddo got outta school, I don't really care for that flavor.  But, whateva.

Justice got all pissy on the ride home from school b/c I wouldnt let her listen to 95.5 b/c I just didnt feel like it.  I am so sick of the same damn songs over and over.. so she threw a hissy fit in the car.  Sooo she's not talking to me now.  WHATEVA!!!  The joys of parenting. 

Thursday morning we go to court for Guardianship of Justice (Read my profile to better understand our situation) I am a little nervous.  I don't know why, it's in the bag.  Current guardian (my mom) is reccomending the change.  Justice has lived here for years, she's happy, healthy, spoiled effing rotten.... so whatever.  I just am not big on fricking court. 

dinner- egg whites with cheese and pico.  twas tasty. 

Well, I am done with this filabuster! 
Later friends.

I hope you day gets better tomorrow!
