Hellooooooo!

Another morning at work and I am sitting here at my desk goofing off alreadly! Drinking coffee once AGAIN. 3/4 Decaf (1/4 caf for a little extra kick.) The SF vanilla caramel creamer is YUMMY and I recommend it to anyone. I hide it in my bottom desk drawer so I don't have to share with anyone at work. I have just realized that the only things I like to drink since surgery are WATER and now coffee. Funny how we didn't even own a coffee maker until my MIL bought one for us to have for her visits. Now, I am going to buy some to brew at home. The only bad thing is the dreaded coffee breath. I always hated it when my co-workers would lean close to talk to me with coffee breath. So I guess I'll keep lots of gum or mouth rinse around. I read the news online at CNN.com and I just realized that the world is going to crap and I don't want to read the news anymore. I'm even thinking of giving up TV completely. I just feel disgusted with people in general. So how is everyone else's morning? Kathy

Hey Kathy! I hear ya on the coffee breath ... my husband drinks coffee, and I while I love the smell as it brews, the aroma loses all appeal when it's on his breath. Glad you've found something that you can enjoy while it warms you up at work though! I also stay away from the news. Maybe I'm in denial, maybe I'm irresponsible ... but it brings on anxiety and depression for me, so I avoid it, if possible. Can't totally give up TV though ... I'm a reality TV junkie. The Amazing Race and Survivor are my drugs for the fall ... and Lost starts again next week. Totally hooked on that show. I have a 2 PM hair appointment today. I'm changing hair people AGAIN. I wish I could find someone I love. Today I'm seeing the guy that Susanne recommended many posts back ... saying he helped her with her hair loss. While I'm not sure anything can really help, I'm willing to see this guy and hope he can cut or color ... or SHAVE ... my hair into something I can live with until my hair starts growing back again. I don't have to work Friday this week ... WHOOOO!!! ... since I went in for 8 hours yesterday for another training day. I think that's all for me and my world ... I'm gonna go now and walk on my treadmill. Haven't done that for WEEKS. Hope your day goes fast! Dawn

I hate the news too. For some reason I am always drawn to the stories about children. I must like to torture myself. I believe that some people just need to be sterilized. I get depressed too. I guess it is why I am overprotective of my daughter. Anyway, I think my hair is finally starting to grow back in. It is still falling out at the same rate, but I have noticed some new growth recently kind of filling in the thin spots. I've been taking the Biotin. Don't know if its that or just the fact that I am six months out and doing pretty good with my protien and food. Whatever it is, I'll take it. I'm trying to grow my hair out long again. But I hate having to clean it up from everywhere! Walk an extra 30 minutes for me. I don't know when I am ever gonna get up off my lazy butt and exercise again! Kathy

hey Kathy! Doing pretty good here.. I agree with the news too, i find i can'****ch much of it cause i start thinking about the bad stuff i see and i get scared, so i'm keeping that at a minimum lately. Hmm where do you get SF vanilla caramel creamers? sounds yummy for morning coffee! love Darquise

I got it from Bi-Lo. They have it with all the other powdered CofeeMate creamers. They have a couple of other flavors too. I haven't tried those yet. It even smells good. Sometimes I'll catch myself sniffing my empty cup after I've finished my coffee! I'm sure I look like a weirdo.

Hey where did you get the SF vanilla carmel creamer???? Sounds fab!

I got it at Bi-Lo. I actually "accidentally" found it when I was looking for the new Splenda flavored packets for coffee. They have hazelnut, french vanilla, etc. Bi-Lo didn't have those yet, but this stuff is good. And really, I already have tons of splenda! Kathy

Well, I am a little late so Good afternoon everybody!!! I have been running errands all morning. It has been another busy day...week for me. I wish I had one morning where I could sleep in. I hope everyones afternoon goes well. Melissa
