Thursday WLS express

ALL ABOARD THE THANKFUL THURSDAY EXPRESS!!!

GOOD MORNING! It's Thursday, and I'm so very thankful for my wonderful husband who has really been great this week at helping Chris with math homework AND is taking the reins this weekend so I can fly to Atlanta tomorrow evening-Sunday. I'm excited about that. I honestly cannot remember the last time I flew somewhere alone! I want to say it was in 2001 when I went to NM for a conference! Normally I fly with family back and forth to PA. And I'm SOOO thankful for Chris's school this year. Last year in FWISD it was a train wreck-teachers basically given up on him. This year everyone in the school that he comes into contact with has been on his side. His confidence and self-esteem has grown so much. And, yesterday he tested for Gifted and Talented. He's always been skipped over for this because of behavioral issues, even though he's very smart. But this year he's been very stable so they're considering him. Pretty exciting!

My ulner nerve neuropathy has decided to rear its ugly head- like carpal tunnel but the ulner nerve is on the far side of the arm, from the wrist up. I haven't had trouble with that in a long time. I've got a brace-its just hard to use all the time. Typing is hard. But I'm adjusting.

Just 6 more days till Chris's birthday-hard to believe he's going to be 12. I say that every year- he can't be that old because I can't be that old! lol. He's excited about his party on the 6th.

Hope everyone has a fantastic day!!!

Alissa enjoy your trip to Atlanta~We will be going that way in July I can't wait....
Sounds like Chris has had a positive year this year~I love to hear stories of teachers really making a difference in student lives and self esteem.  I really does take a village wither at home or at school~

Enjoy your Thursday!

Good morning everyone!  Sure Happy It's Thursday, but I'll be happier when it's Saturday!!  I guess I need to go to bed earlier because I'm not waking up feeling refreshed and ready to take on the day the way I should! Do any of us these days?  Karen!  I need your sleeping balm!! Or the recipe to make it, which would be even better!!  Please send it to me!!  Thanks!!!

Well, the garden wasn't hurt by the hail the other night.  I'm going to have to pull up the cool wether crops because they just aren't doing well any more.  Or rather, at all.  Never got a broccoli or cauliflower or lettuce out of the garden. But the tomatoes and the beans are going great guns!!  I think the peas stopped producing because they too are a cold weather crop.  Will need to replant in September for a fall harvest!  On the other hand, my Cantelope are starting to show little fruits!  Which is VERY exciting!  I've never grown melons and I can't wait to see how they do!

Well, better get into the shower!  Alissa, I'm so happy for you that Brian and Chris are doing well! But I'm sorry to hear about your arm!  I know what you're going through.  My right elbow has been KILLING me lately and I'm not sure what it is.  I guess I need to go to the doctor with it.

Have a great day everyone!  Love ya!

Good Morning All....I think this is a first for me to jump on our train so early in the morning~LOL  I have been tossing and turning for over an hour so I thought I would get up and start my day...coffee is brewing as I type..mmm can't wait for that cup of JOE this morning!

It's getting harder to get moving in the morning with school almost out!!  I will be working some in the summer this year, as our campus will be going from a 5/6 to a 3-6 campus just lots of moving and reorganising that will need to be done.  My kids will be moving to JR. High next year and will again will not be on the same campus, I was lucky enough to moved to the campus that they were on this school year...I'll miss seeing them durning the day next year...LOL

I have tons of office work that needs to get done today, so I can enjoy our field day some tomorrow~yesterday and went and purchased 20 cases of bottled water for the kids tomorrow~there was a lady in awe that I was lifting all those cases of water, and then she asked" Are you going to drink all tha****er"? Of course I played nice and said no wise cracks, LOL told her they were for my school's field day tomorrow~ howerver it did take Costco sometime to find me a worker to help me load in all into my car...I was NOT happy about that .....i guess there just was not customer service yesterday afternoon..LOL

well coffe is done brewing~I hope that each of you has a wonderful Thursday and I look forward to Dana's Positive posts today and others, I will check in once I'm home from work this afternoon.

Be safe, Play Nice, and give someone a Smile today!!

Good Morning Alissa and the rest of My TMB Family,

Alissa like you, I am also very greatful for my wonderful husband this morning.

He is so sweet.  Last night, after I had climbed into bed, he decided he was

going to set the coffee pot up for me so it would be all ready this morning.

Well in the process of trying to do that he broke the pot itself, so he went out

at 10:00 last night and bought me a new coffee pot and when I got up this

morning it was all set to turn on.  Not sure how I got so  lucky to have such a

great guy.  I have so much to do around here, but have had no energy these

days at all.  Had my B-12 checked and it was fine.  Just need to motivate.  The

boxes came yesterday so I can start packing stuff away.  It is our goal to stage

the house so we can sell it.  Most everything will go into storage until we move

in November.  Anyway I need to work on that today.  Eric has soccer practice

tonight, so I will take him and Mark will pick him up.  I am planning on going to

the high school concert tonight.  They have a wonderful choir and I love

listening to them.  This weekend is soccer tournament, and golf lesson.   Guess

that is all from Burkburnett.  Prayers for all those still looking for work, and

those that are healing from surgery.  Have a blessed day.  Love you guys.
