Well, its Thursday-one more day till the weekend starts. A week from today we could be on our way to the hospital. No matter what the surgery time is we'll be going to the hospital at some point a week from today. Wish I had someone going with me to keep me calm in the waiting room- I know he's going to be fine, but I'm not a good waiter- my anxiety gets the best of me sometime. So anyone want to hang out at the hospital next Thursday with me? They have a Starbucks!
Today I get to present at a meeting about our agency. That's always fun. Now I have to figure out what I'm going to say. I'm def. a fly by the seat of my pants kind of speaker. I don't like to have a speech written out. Seems boring.

Michelle-hope you're packed up and ready to move now and that it goes quickly. Liz- hope you feel better soon! Make sure you rest like the doctor said to!
Gina-hope you get some rest and relaxation after working so hard the last week.
Kathy-how's the new iPhone working?

I've got to get some breakkie in me. Hope everyone has a fantastic day!

I'm with you Alissa.  Well, it's Thursday.  I wish I could take off work and be with you at the hospital, but I can't.  I know what you mean about being a bad waiter.  I'm not very good at that myself.

I wish I knew what was going on at work.  And I thought I found an Ortho doctor to go to for my back, but I found out he doesn't do backs.  Then when I find one that does do backs, they don't take Workers comp.  I'm screwed here.  What a pain in the backside!!  Got a call into Dept of Labor to find out what to do.  I just want to get back to work full tiime and get on with life!  I'm tired of screwing with this.

I'm going to have to start getting to bed earlier.  This waking up tired is for the birds!!  Better get into the shower and get to work!  Have a great day everyone!  Love ya!

Alyssa, Thanks for asking.. I love my phone.. It does so many things......I listen to audio books all the time. So, I go to sleep listening to them from my IPHONE. It is some what user friendly.. So, I am slowly learning.. I am going to take one of those free classes that teach you how to do so many things with it. I googled it and Apple actually has a store on university Dr here in Ft Worth.

Smile, it increases your face value.

KATHY...I know it's a sin..but I'm JEALOUS...I wanted an i phone, but could not budget it in right now, so I got a cute lil "gravity" phone--GREAT for texting LIZ while I'm working long nights..but it's still not an i phone. I know you waited a long time, and you deserve it...but I'm still jealous....may God strike me down now for my sin (I only say that cuz there's not a cloud in the sky this morning--I wouldn't be so brave otherwise!!)

Good Morning TMB!!

Got to bed really early last nite, slept so hard I sheet marks all over!!!  Not much going on today - W.O.R.K. and the usual dealings with crabby customers!!!  Wishin I could be a lady of leisure and just head over the beach for the day but, as my Sistah Gina says, I'll be the responsible adult and head on into work!

I'm working on some extra time off to come up to the BBQ early so I can get my "Danni Hug" before she heads for the deep south in GA. 

Everyone have a great day!  Stay cool, stay hydrated - lots of water, eat your protein First and TAKE YOUR VITAMINS everyday, no matter what!!!

How about a little Beach Boys this morning? 

Aruba Jamaica ooo I wanna take you
Bermuda Bahama come on pretty mama
Key Largo Montego baby why don't we go
Jamaica

Off the Florida Keys
There's a place called Kokomo
That's where you wanna go to get away from it all

Bodies in the sand
Tropical drink melting in your hand
We'll be falling in love
To the rhythm of a steel drum band
Down in Kokomo

Aruba Jamaica ooo I wanna take you
To Bermuda Bahama come on pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego baby why don't we go

Ooo I wanna take you down to Kokomo
We'll get there fast
And then we'll take it slow
That's where we wanna go
Way down to Kokomo

To Martinique, that Monserrat mystique

We'll put out to sea
And we'll perfect our chemistry
By and by we'll defy a little bit of gravity

Afternoon delight
****tails and moonlit nights
That dreamy look in your eye
Give me a tropical contact high
Way down in Kokomo

Aruba, Jamaica ooo I wanna take you
To Bermuda, Bahama come on pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego baby why don't we go

Ooo I wanna take you down to Kokomo
We'll get there fast
And then we'll take it slow
That's where we wanna go
Way down to Kokomo

Port Au Prince I wanna catch a glimpse

Everybody knows
A little place like Kokomo
Now if you wanna go
And get away from it all
Go down to Kokomo

Aruba, Jamaica ooo I wanna take you
To Bermuda, Bahama come on pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego baby why don't we go

Ooo I wanna take you down to Kokomo
We'll get there fast
And then we'll take it slow
That's where we wanna go
Way down to Kokomo

Aruba, Jamaica ooo I wanna take you
To Bermuda, Bahama come on pretty mama
Key Largo, Montego baby why don't we go

Ooo I wanna take you down to Kokomo

Hey Twinkie,

Another great song today.  I think you and I are more alike than we realized.  We sure seem to have the same taste in music.  The problem with this song is that it's going to be stuck in my head all day long.  

Aruba ... Jamaica ... ooo I wanna take you ...
