Thursday WLS express

ALL ABOARD!!!

GOOD MORNING!!! Its Thursday- we leave tomorrow! Woo hoo! Except I have a ton of things to do before then! Last night I was so tired around 9:30 and I was about to go to bed when I remembered I had to make a cake- my payday cake that everyone loved so much when I brought it to work a few weeks ago. So I got that done with the wonderful help of my hubby. Today we're throwing a suprise party for my assistant who is graduating Sat from TWU. Her husband is coming as well. I got all the decorations/plates/etc from Dollar Tree, and then the other lady who is helping and I asked for dollar bills donations for the graduate, and my office is so generous- I have a little over $100! We took each bill and rolled it and tied it with ribbon so they look like mini-diplomas. Its really cute. Then I found a small graduation hat box that they're going to go in. Hopefully I've remembered everything. If not Fiesta is literally across the parking lot.
That's about it from here. I hope everyone has a great day!!!

Good morning..evening.. night..whatever it is..Finally got a call to work a case-at 6:30 last night-for an 8pm-8am case---had to HUSSLE, but I made it there in time..real sweet little lady...the hospice company had their own nurse scheduled for tonight, but apparently the pt's son called their office as soon as it opened, and requested me to come back tonight, for another 8pm-8am, cuz my agency just called me with the good news. Woohoo-my boss said that just never happens!! At least that will be 2 shifts of work this week (if she lives thru the day, etc)...I can pile up with the luggage in the back of GAYE's truck in the morning and snooze all the way to the island...

Soooo...guess I'd best get my happy hiney to bed...I'm not like LIZ..I've GOTTA have some sleep to be able to function.wish I had some of KAREN's cream RIGHT NOW..it's so hard to wind down after being "up" so long..and drinking coffee shakes all night!!!

Much, much love to all!!!

Ok, I don't have insomnia, but I'm tired of not getting enough sleep.  And it's my own fault.  I should be going to bed at a decent hour, but I wait until 10:30 or 11 to get to bed!!  Dang, I'm tired of waking up tired!  Tonight, I'm going to bed at 8PM!!

Still haven't heard about the job in California.  Maybe today.  I'm of two minds about this.  I'd love the chance to get away, but can I afford it?  I don't know.  Everyone keeps telling me the cost of living out there is outrageous, and I'm having a hard time enough here!  What to do, what to do... Mercy.

Well, I guess I'd better get into the shower and get to work.  Don't want to, but gotta!  Have a great day!  Remember ... protein first, drink plenty of fluids, and take your vitamins!!  Have a great day!  Love ya!

Good Morning My TMB Family,

Well it is almost the weekend and you all will be getting ready to head to Galviston for what I am sure will be a wonderful Confrence.  Ya'll will be in my thoughts and I look forward to lots and lots of pictures.  2nd best thing to being there is seeing all the great pictures you guys take.  I had a couple of things happen yesterday that I want to share with you guys.  Ya'll know we have been trying to sell our car, and it has been listed on Craigs list.  Well we had someone interested in it that lives in Florida.  (1st mistake going with someone out of state) Through lots of emails and talking to our bank we decided to tell him we wanted a wire transfer and we opened a checking account with just a few dollers in it.  Well the bank called Mark yesterday to say that someone had tried to write a 2,200.00 check against that account tell the bank that he was a business partner of Mark.  Thank goodness the bank knew enough to call Mark before cashing it.  Needless to say the check did not get cashed and we learned a huge lesson.  Wasted to much time on that whole deal.  Then last night I had some peanut butter wich I often do for a snack, and dumped so badly on it.  Heart racing, throwing up, it was terriable.  I think I have only dumped once before, because I try really hard to stay away from things that will do that to me.  Ok that was my day in a nut shell yesterday.  Going for a walk this morning, then maybe lunch with Rebecca, and tonight have people coming to look at the antique dresser we are selling.  Also looking forward to Greys Anatomy 2 hour finale.  Alyssia, you are so good to do that party for your assistant.  She is very lucky.  Have a fun time.  Prayers for those in need this morning especially Ms. Annette and her family, Deb, Yvone, and Ramone as they get ready for this weekend.   Jeri, how are you feeling these days?  Nurse Gina, I am counting on you giving extra hugs for me this weekend.  I know you are going to have so much fun.  Ok coffee is ready time to start the wake up process.  Have a blessed day.  Love you guys.  Michelle

Good Morning, TMB!!

Is it Friday Y E T?!?!?  Hellish day yesterday - today WILL be better, dammit!!!

Not much else going on - packing and finishing up the door prizes for the dinner......still need table decor but if I can't find anything.......I'll use door prizes as table decor!!

Gotta get it in gear this morning - I have a busy, long day ahead.  Hoping to get finished in time to head over to the San Luis after work and help stuff goodie bags.

Prayers and {{{{HUGS}}}} for all who need 'em!!!

Don't forget.....VITS - WATER - EXERCISE and PROTEIN first!!!

Good morning.  I didn't get home from prom decorating until 9:15 last night.  The gym is looking good, but we'll be there for 2 more nights decorating to get done.  I have lots of folders to work on at school today,then back to decorating. 

Prayers to all who need them.

Have a great Thursday.

Karla

Well, today has finally arrived.  I did not sleep well last night only because I wanted today to come!!!

Have not packed a thing and hope to be out of here by 8;30.  Guess it is time for me to pull it all together.

Unplugging the computers now to load them up and off to the showers and the suitcase!!!  Camera is charged ready to go.

Have a great one and I will see you in GALVESTON...

My toe is still sore, but I can wear shoes now and it's no longer throbbing.  I'm in a much better mood.  Funny how pain can control your mind and make you mean and grumpy.  lol 

We're on countdown to the weekend!  Wow, did you hear that big cheer?!?!?  I know lots of you are headed south for the conference tomorrow, but then some of us bums are just looking forward to a relaxing weekend at home.  I'll be home.  DH and I have lots on the agenda for the weekend so I'll be plenty busy.  Hope you all have a fun, safe, inspiring, motivating weekend. 
 

Good Morning!  Lunesta worked and I rested last night so I'm in a much better mood this morning.  An uninterrupted sleep does my body so good.  My PCP and I disgusted taking them nightly if necessary but I have a fear of addiction so I won't do it.  I am a much happier person though when I'm rested so maybe instead of once a wee****assionally 2 I should make it a twofer all the time.

Another busy day at work today, I'm finally going to start my month end about 6 days late, oh well it'll get done today.

I want to say a big THANK YOU for unanticipated phone calls.  Y'all have no idea how much it meant, I cried just hearing from them.  Wish I was able to make Galveston this weekend, peep time is always good and energizing......unfortunately family comes first and it's my baby boy's 8th birthday no way I can leave him on his day.  I'll have to see when/if I can come up with a me weekend anytime soon; after June maybe?
