What's on your (PHOTO) Friday Menu?

Yesterdays QOTD- I would like to re-learn how to play the flute, it's been since right after high school.

Todays QOTD- Spirograph for sure, all the cool drawings you could make.

My roommate had an arbitration for his lawsuit yesterday, since he had to sign an NDA I don't know how much he got. Not as much as he was hoping for but at least it is settled. Last year he was working for a company delivering and picking up "pods" and he had a 3000lb trailer crush his big toe. Workman's comp was awful, his caseworker went on vacation for 3 weeks and didn't tell any of her co-workers about his case. So he didn't get a check for almost a month, and was off work for at least 8 weeks. He now cannot walk a straight line and will have issues for the rest of his life. When it was time for him to go back to work the company had hired 3 people to replace him and instead of giving him his job back they gave him a total of 8 hours of work in a month. Trying to force him to quit, which is totally against the workman's comp laws. He settled with workman's comp and because they did not pay in a timely manner they tacked on an additional amount. This arbitration was with the company because they did not settle on the first arbitration. He really loved his job and was devastated when they treated him so poorly. He was hoping to work there for another 15 years minimum. I'm just glad it's over.

I got 40 hours this week yeah! We have been having some issues with a couple of our systems so it hasn't been very fun. Just happy to get the hours.

I need to get out and walk, I've been a slug this week. And the weather has been really nice, sunshine but cold. I see some crazy weather for next week, snow but it's so far out and usually when they predict it, it doesn't happen.

Too much popcorn this week, it's too easy to over indulge...

Have a great day everyone!

I am having dinner at the airport waiting on my 1045 direct flight to Helsinki! Very lucky, that less than 90 minute connection in Paris was worrying me. If you ever have to spend an extended time here at JFK, I recommend visiting the TWA hotel and airport which has a museum and also if I ever have to overnight at JFK again, I am staying there. Also, I saw Angelina Jolie about 3-5 feet away from me and he is stunningly gorgeous. And that is the lasted edition of my travel adventures!

Those cookies are too cute.

I was off today. The day started out with DD's consult with the oral surgeon, he was a bit behind already at 8am so we had a long wait in the exam room. I really dislike wasting my time sitting and waiting for health care professionals. Really for anyone that keeps you unnecessarily waiting due to poor planning on their part. He was really nice once he got in the room. I was really surprised how reasonable the estimate was plus dental insurance had good coverage. She is now scheduled for March. Now DS will get his consultation for his wisdom teeth. Then I went to get my nails done. After off to get Botox. I was told no vigorous exercise for rest of day so no yoga today. But I did walk on the treadmill and get my weight workout in. Unfortunately now I have 2 yoga workouts to make up. One makeup will be Monday.

not a whole lot of plans this weekend. We will go to the movie tomorrow. Not a lot out. There is a show called Missing that has good audience and critic ratings that we will see. Otherwise. The usual meal prep and miscellaneous stuff around the house.

QOTD: I loved my Barbie's. We had the sports car, 3 level house, bathtub and furniture. Unlike today there wasn't as many accessories to buy back then.
