Moody Monday Roll Call

LOL I am not moody but the clients are. I am up here at work and ready to start the week, even thought I feel like it has not ended since I worked both days this weekend. Had a good sunday we planted a rose bush and some azaleas will see what happens, neither of us are outdoor garden people.
My plan today is to work, go home have lunch then head to the gym. I have some errand type things to do as well. Will hang at home the rest of the night because tuesday and wednesday will be long days.
What are you doing today? Hope you had a good weekend

So first things first...I'm gonna crawl my way to my car this am.  Holy schmoly, the general "night after the holiday" surely did NOT disappoint last night.  We were on divert yet again.  I've been here 18 mos and we have been on divert a total of 3 times...twice within the past month.  Craziness I tell you.  Granted...a lot of ppl who needed to be here...which I NEVER mind...but a good handful of BS too which just aggravated me.

Anywho...going home to bed...I'll nap for awhile...get up and go to the gym and make dinner.  My brother and his girlfriend *might* be coming up tonight.  We'll see how that plays out.  I have enough out for dinner for all of us if so...and if not Bri and I have left overs.

cleaning up the house and seeing how the evening plays out.

I'm off for four and sooooo glad I am!

Oh - and my patients are moody today too!  I just had one elderly gentleman tell me (after I got him TWO pillows, a cup of coffe, a sandwhich and water...all of which are NOT easy to come by in an ER) that I was "obviously on my first day of work" "had no idea what I was doing" and when he asked if I was married and I told him yes he said "no man should be so unlucky"  Hmpf!  It's not MY fault your family isn't coming to pick you up till 7 am sir.  I guess they want to get some sleep and away from your nonsense!

Well I admit it. I was moody yesterday. ALL day long.

Let's just say it was partly some of my own doing - decisions I had made about the holiday, or what NOT to do....which then meant I had no one to blame but myself when it didn't turn out the way it had always been before. Mike tried, bless his heart, and we took a beautiful afternoon drive out in the country, top down on the car, to try to blow some fresh air into my lungs.

The other part was family dynamics, which is a no win in some cases. We have a big family - 6 married kids (well...5 married, one on the way out of a marriage). And I KNOW the best advice when it comes to adult children is the fine art of knowing when to keep my mouth shut. So instead I vented a few wonderful "opinions" to Mike, which brought his mood down., although not to the level of my own.

Sheesh. Went to bed early, and honestly was glad I just made it through the day. May today be a better one.

Tonight we have a meeting with a financial planner to see about recommendations for retirement, if such a thing might ever exist for us.

Wishing all of you a day free of moodiness!!!!

Good morning Nicole and Pam and all of PA - back to work today for me.  Still PAssover - so I will be making breakfast AND lunch for the kiddies.  oy!  It is over for us tonight!  Yipee!!!!!

So - I am working today, and with Nicole and Pam's patients BOTH dealing with moddy patients, I do not expect anything different from hormonal, off their schedule, 14 year olds.  Should be a GREAT day! :)  (Insert sarcastic eye roll here)

Directly after school I am headed to Barix for my ANNUAL appointment with Dr. P.  Can't believe it!  I am looking forward to getting there and seeing what is going to happen next.  I will take my picture to finish my one year photo album and have the progression complete.  Although I am not at goal - still not sure what that is - I feel that a year of transformation warrants a scrapbook! :)  I have NO other plans tongiht!  YAHOO!!!!!  Dance is over for the season, so my Monday nights and Saturday afternoons are back NOT running the girls to their classes - which also means that I need to get back to the pool at some point this week.  Possibly tonight, not sure yet.

I hope you all have a GREAT Monday!

Good Morning all!

I am having my breakfast......waiting until 8am so I can log into the school registration site and try to sign up for my summer classes before they are full.

Then off to classes. I have a HUGE exam in Human Bio that I have been preparing for so wish me luck on that.

Then home to finish up my English paper that is due tomorrow.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

good luck with the exam

Good Morning Nicole & PA Friends !

Glad the weekend is over....to much temptation on the Easter buffet table yesterday. Back on track today.

I'm at work til 3:30pm and then I'm stopping to see my Grandmother since I didn't see her yesterday for Easter. I have a lovely plant for her, which I promptly toppled over as soon as I started the car moving this morning. Uggh...the thing will probably look like it's been thru a war before I finally get it to her house.

After that, I'll head to the gym. Due to obligations Friday, Saturday and Sunday, I didn't get there. I'm ok with it though, since I did go four times last week. Back to the grind tonight.

Hope everyone has a great day !

Good morning all - tried to keep with all the goings-on over the weekend and looks like everybody survived the holiday.

I'm glad to be back at work today to get some REST!! LOL!! I feel like I've been going non-stop for the past 4 days - my 'fun' day was Friday when I did some much-needed clothes shopping in Lancaster with a friend. Proud to say I did my part to boost the economy that day!

My nephew got my mom's rooms painted and Saturday I got them together and they look really nice - need some stuff for each room (pictures, etc.) but I'm very pleased with how they turned out. This week he'll be painting both porches then starting on the 'man-cave' for my husband. I probably took on too much at one time but I was on a roll.

Yesterday was nice - my other nephew and his little boy came for dinner - there was a huge void at our holiday table without mom, tho...everyone was quiet during dinner. I guess all the 'firsts' coming are going to be the hardest.

But hey, the weather is glorious right now and I was thinking about her a lot this weekend - this was her favorite time of year when everything was 'reborn' - Thursday afternoon I sat out on her porch with the dog just enjoying the beautiful day when I realized there were tears streaming down my cheeks. Guess I miss the little lady more than I realized.

Anyway, I'm back at work and getting back to a better routine. Hope everyone has a great day.

Morning everyone.  Quickly eating my oatmeal (which I know I will pay for later) before I run off to a meeting at 9.  Cruising the posts here before I do.  Working today till 5 and then a class tonight. 

Yesterday was a really ****ty eating day for me.  Not so much eating bad stuff, but difficulty with what I ate.  I will post more later I'm sure, because it was very frustrating. 

Just wanted to stop in and wish everyone a good start to the morning!
