It's been a while since a man started this.  Watch out, the pedal is to the metal.

I am so bored here at work.  Just processed a request to leave an hour early.  Need to try to find an hour of sleep since I have an early afternoon doctors appointment with my urologist. 

A not so busy weekend ahead of me.  I hope to go to the gym.  I really am not doing a good job of that.



GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!

Hey George, thanks for starting the train!!  All I can say is, TGI Freakin F!!  I think I"m going to go to bed at 8 PM tonight just so I can get some sleep!  I've been so tired lately!  I know I'm not getting enough protein, so I'm going to have to start up with that also!

The boss that I was going down to New Orleans to work for is coming up here to be the Postmaster of Fort Worth!!  Just found that out yesterday.  Mike, the current FW PM is retirning as of May 31st!  Wow, the only constant in the Post Office is Change!!  It will be interesting to see how things pan out!  I'm telling you, I have always said that everything happens for a reason!

Therese got the official word yesterday, she is now a student!  Making sure that UNT is going to accept her but the State of Texas has approved her training and she is going to school!!  She registered yesterday for the summer session which starts June 8th, so...

Well, guess I'd better get going!  Lots to do and so little time to do it in!  Love ya!

Good Morning All~
Soooo happy it is FRIDAY!!!!  I'm off wor****il next Tuesday!!!
Gosh I have not jumped on the train in months and I would pick today of all day when George is putting the metal to the petal.....I don't do FAST....slooooooowwwwwwwwww down george...LOL

Thought I was going to continue in some more medical testing this afternoon, but looks like the one doctor has had an emergency with another patient come up, they called me bright and early 7:45 to let me know to call the office to reschudule...I guess that just gives me more time to work around my house..LOL  
My tests are coming in slowly, my labs were/are horrible..(Not my VIT labs, those are AWESOME this time....mmmm THANK YOU DEBRA for sharing your experience..I think of you each morning as I take my vits)
However my blood carbon dioxide is at 16 and is low, and my other tests for endocraine problems came back either H or L ....and my thyroid tests all came back CRAZY!!!  so, we again lowered the doseage of synthyroid to 50mcg, and I will repeat labs in 4 weeks!  So in the last 6 weeks, I have gone from 300mcg,200mcg,150,mcg,125mcg,75mcg,50mcg......my hair is falling out in clumps, but....I'm not as tired as I was a few weeks ago~ My doctor did put me on some anxiety meds to help me deal with all of this~We are still waiting the results of the FNB, this test will let us know what kind of Cells we are dealing with, this is the test I really want to know about!
Anywho, I ready to relax this weekend enjoy family and friends and hopefully read my book that I have been putting off...LOL
I hope that everyone has a happy and safe Memorial Day Weekend!!!

ummmm george  the train...its still going waaaayyyyy to fast!!!!  LOL

GOOD MORNING. Having labs drawn at 7am so I slept in a bit. Even with that I'm so tired. I couldn't do anything yesterday after work but lay around. Grrr....
I'm cranky due to lack of food this morning. I hate fasting- it makes me feel so weak.
Hope everyone has a great day today!

Good Morning My TMB Family,

I am with all of you saying TGIF.  Vitamins are down, working on some coffee,

and plan towalk after taking Eric to school.  I was supposed to go to a friends

house tonight and spend the night and watch her kids, but her daughter has

down with strep so that is not not going to happen.  Cant take any chances

of Eric getting sick.  Mark is working late so cant really leave him alone, my

friend totally understood and was able to find someone else.  Have my golf

clinic tomorrow if it is not raining. (and they say it is going to)  The rest of the

weekend will be spent getting stuff ready for a yard sale.  Have so mcuh

stuff to get rid of before we move.  I have a 2005 Honda Accord, and a 2007

F-150 truck for sale if anyone is enterested just pm me.  It does not seem to

me that the last time we moved there was so much work involved.  I have all

summer to do it in, but we are going to be putting the house on the market

sometime next month so need to get it ready.  Spent most of the day yeterday

scrubbing cabinets in the kitchen and cleaning them out.  My twins will be 27

tomorrow and it is killing me that I can not be with them.  They are celebrating

with my Mom and Dad and I guess that is good.  Just hurts that I cant be

with them. Maybe next year.  Does make me a little depressed though.  Ok

time to get a move on.  Prayers for those in need, Ms. Charlene, (hope she is

healing well) Ms. Debbie, Ms. Annette, and everyone else that is in need.  Have

a blessed day.  Love you guys.  Michelle

P.S.  Looking forward to confrence in september.  That will be 2 months before

we leave but will do everything I can do to be there.

Good morning.  Yeah...glad a 3 day weekend will be here as of this afternoon!  I need it right now, even though it will be a fairly busy one.

I have an ARD meeting at 8:00 a.m., then head to football field for our sp. ed. co-op's own version of special olympics for our younger kids and LIFE kids through high school age.  They love it and it's fun watching them.  I have to operate one of the game areas.  Hopefully I won't get too sunburned.  Back to the hs this afternoon to write a report on a kid I tested.  Walmart after work, then home for some housecleaning.

Ben has a sr. party tonight that is hamburger cookout/swimming.
as of last night, I'm done w/ athletic booster club...thank heavens!

Good Morning All,
Great to see the OH conference will be in Dallas in Sept.  I'm excited...never been to one.  Looking forward to it.  DD just got a Sams card so I'm meeting her there today.  Haven't been in one for 3 or 4 yrs. now.  Tomorrow we are headed to Austin where they will visit with friends and I'll get to visit with my elderly Aunt.  Looking forward to seeing her.  Last aunt I have still living!  Am I old or what?  Two oldest DGD have a carnival at their little MDO program today.  They are excited.  Starting next week it's every day, all day.  I need prayers :)  Hope everyone has a great day.

Blessings,
Carol

Sorry haven't been around much.  Life just got crazy with school ending, graduation coming, I'm on vacation next week so work is crazy this week, training has ramped up with everyone wanting to get into a bikini by yesterday, and I'm having a day procedure next wednesday so i've been getting chest x-rays and bloodwork and stuff done.  Nothing fun, that's for sure.  However, we are leaving for the lake tomorrow morning and won't be back till late on Monday or early Tuesday.  So I'll me mising in action for a while longer.

Hope everyone has a safe and fun Memorial day weekend.  HUGS
