**Tuesday Roll Call**
PAm - good luck with picking up only 2 things at Wegman's! I can't walk in there for less then $100.
Trish - hope you feel better
Laureen - I hope that Dillinger has a huge improvement today as the meds get out of his system.
I am feeling run down again today - I guess it's going to take me a few days to bounce back. I am at wor****il 2 then off for my ultrasound! Meeting Mom and Chris there. Then I am going to head back to my Mom's because my Aunt is coming over so I'll visit a while then head home.
Have a good day all

Oh Liz,
You will be amazed at the ultrasound, you can actually make out features today. . . I hope you feel better and get some good solid rest, because soon enough it will be harder to get it first because of being in your 3rd trimester and then the realities of being a Mom with a newborn.
Thanks for the well wishes regarding Dillinger.
Hugs, Laureen

Good Morning PA!
Trish, I am so sorry to hear you are still struggling with things. I surely hope things turn around for you soon!
Liz, have a great ultrasound. They are soooo amazing!
Me? Just recovering from the most horrendous exam ever. I seriously cried through my test last night. I was just so freaking overwhelmed. I think I am losing it!
However, my days must go one, so it's wor****il 3:30, home to warm up a tuna casserole I made, then off to English class.
It's supposed to be beautiful today so hope everyone can smile and enjoy it!

When life hands you lemons, ask for tequila & salt and give me a call!
morning all..
today has me working 5:15-3:30ish.. we are now REQUIRED to work at least 5 hours of OT a week. I'm happy for the paycheck, but that word mandatory that they throw around every year at this time just makes me cringe.
After work, I think I may just go out and walk with Siehara. Then, come home and make dinner. Siehara has her therapy appointment at 6 and my hospital's support group is at 6:45. I really want to go, even if I am late.
That's it for me.
I hope everyone has a good and better day.

Hi all,
Today is hopefully a good productive day. I am still seeking direction on what to do for the rest of my life. Do I go to school? Do I just work part time? Do I...... I don't know and it is so hard to know. I spent a good hour looking at schools and majors and I just don't know what I want to do. Anyway, I hope you all have an awesome day!

Good morning everyone.
Trish, I hope you bounce back and get back on track.
Laureen, good luck with Dillenger. I know how difficult it is.
Happy Tuesday to everyone. Work has been grueling, seems to be non-stop. I am just trying to take things one day at a time.
One of my best friends is in a lot of pain from chemo and she has a long ways to go with the treatments. I feel so bad for her, but even though she is in the late stage 3, they are giving her an 80% chance of going into remission. I sure hope they are right!!!!
My mom has been disagnosed with brain fluid and I have been freaking out about that. She see the neurologist on Thursday and they will probably do surgery and put in a shunt to open the pathway for the fluid to drain. I have been doing some research and it seems as though the early you catch the fluid, the better off you are. Not sure where in the stages my mom is yet. I am anxious to find out more on Thursday. She is a snowbird and supposed to go back to Florida for the winter in 2 weeks. Not sure what she will do.
Things continue to be going well. The weight is coming off slowly, but I am very grateful that I am losing. It is so nice to read some of the inspirational stories that everyone posts on the boards.
I have been going to a couple of groups and the support has been amazing, I have been meeting the nicest people.
I hope everyone has a great Tuesday!!!

Thanks Geoff,
Hope things go well for both your friend and your Mom. Life can be challenging at times and it is when it is that friends are a great resource.
Take care, Laureen

Good morning all!
Nothing to exciting today in my world. I have to leave for work soon and I have *got* to write a handout today for a talk that I'm giving at a conference next month about one of my projects. I'm nervous because it'll be for a huge audience (over 1,000 people) but I keep telling myself that I should have more faith in my speaking skills and also my writing skills. I spent yesterday procrastinating but now today I need to just put on my big girl pants and get it done.
After work, I'll go to the gym (more Zumba, yay!) then home to heat up dinner and watch Biggest Loser. Such an exciting life I lead, I know. :-)
