***Tax Thursday Roll Call***

OMG....can't it be 7am yet?  I'm in my triage seat...and although we've been fairly busy and steady, the clock for some reason is just DRAGGING by.  I couldn't believe it was "only" 00:30 when I looked at the clock just now.  *sigh*

Anyway...getting through the rest of this shift and going home.

Then to the lovely mundane-ness of the mornings....shower, food, litter boxes, pack stuff for work etc etc etc.  I kinda like the "ritual" of how I've gotten my mornings together as of late.  Granted - it's mostly because I have no stops to make...I'm gonna have to try to make that a priority on my days off.

Oh - wait - just remembered - we're out of ff 1/2 and 1/2 so there will be a momentary stop off for that

Last night tonight, yaaaaay!  Then off for 3!  Enjoy all!

Pam

Hey Pam. The weekend is coming we are in the home stretch. Routine and structure is important to success in all things including eating well. Such a shame because my ADD hates and loves structure at the same time. So I constantly crave it and rebel against it. Dont ya just wanna get in my head for 5 mins?? LOL 
Anyway today I am working I overslept so I am here did not wash my hair looking like ASS! 
I am going to go home after work and take a bath and relax and maybe even a nap. I am tired.
I am on day 4 of the liquids so far no big deal. I am getting hungry faster, but that is ok.. I am surprised myself how easy it has been

I am sure you look FAR from ass my dear.   Maybe not nearly as perfect as you would like to be.  But let's be realistic here...you are human...AND our clientelle very rarely actually cares what we look like.  It's just the other staff members, lol

Congrats on day four!

Nicole this is really interesting to me - that the liquids are going pretty well for you! Great job! I've also been "back to basics" this week - not full liquids, but trimmed back on quantities and variety of food a bit - and have lost at least another pound (and of course, every pound counts!)

yay for you. I have not really looked at the scale yet. But we will see. It just reinforces how little food we really do need, and how we give food so many jobs that it was not meant to have.
The plan is to cont with full liquids for the rest of the week. However I will say sat if we go to the cooking class which we plan to. I will be careful but will be sampling. Then I will start pureed for a week, gonna make some chili on sunday to help with that.
Then soft for a week. so we will see

Good morning PA!

I'm out the door here in 5 minutes...heading into 3 days of meetings in Philly (yes again.) I'm wearing some new clothes for the occasion, and have my food bag packed too.

Yesterday was crazy busy with work but I got a LOT done and feel very good about that. Mike got home from his trip to DC and we watched Idol together before drifting off.

Feelin' pretty good in general - hope all of you are too!

Good Morning All. So sorry that your day is dragging Pam. I should have texted - I was awake most of the night all stuffed up. TOday has me at work feeling yuck with sinus crapola. After work I am going to the chiropractor and grocery shopping then home to put away groceries, make something quick for dinner and relax.

Have a good day all!

Good Morning Pam & PA friends -

Another exciting day in the life of Lisa....haha

I'm at wor****il 3:30. After work, it's off to the gym and then home to make dinner. Probably another salad. Last night I made a great salad with romaine lettuce, cucumbers, apples, hard boiled egg and chicken breast. I have plenty of salad stuff and left over chicken. Fortunately for me, Brad doesn't mind salad for dinner twice in row. He's pretty easy and will usually eat anything that I put in front of him.

That's it for me. Hope everyone has a super day !

Good morning Pam - you know - your working nights this week has been interfereing with my wanting to play during the day as I am bored to tears with the PSSA's.  Really...the nerve of some people to NOT be at my beck and call! GEEZ! :)

I am on my way to school in a few moments and then to physical therapy.  Last day of PSSA's - well - actually that is not true - it is the last day of the Math and Reading section - the 8th graders still have two more weeks of testing.  Writing next week for four days, and then Science the following week for two.  Poor kids!  Worked my back hard last night - I didn't even know that it was sore until I started going to this.  I am then going to come home for a little while and hang out with the fam and have dinner.  Tonight is the viewing for my colleague that passed last weekend.  It will be a crazy night - many students, parents and of course colleagues will be there.  And, being Jewish, viewings are not our practice so I am not so comfortable doing this sort of thing.  I think I have only been to about 6 in my lifetime.  Looks like a long and emotional day for me.

I hope you all have a nice and productive Thursday! :)

Morning everyone!! 

Thursday Thursday!!

Today has me working until 3:30
After work, I will head to Siehara's dance studio for parent's visitation.  They are going to show us the part of their recital number they have learned for both jazz and tap classes.

After dance, I will either be coming home to watch Siehara finish her power point presentation on turtles or I will be headed to bingo.  This is all based on whether or not I have a babysitter.  I wish I would know ahead of time, but I guess when you deal with a teenager, you have to expect last minute answers.  


At some point today, I will be going to Starbucks with my mug to get my free coffee!!!
