Good Morning Laura & TMB,

I am going for my follow up visit today because I am almost two weeks since my most recent surgery.  I am loving my results and knowing that it is only going to get better makes it sweet.

People are so worried about what they eat between Christmas and the New Year, but they really should be worried about what they eat between the New Year and Christmas. ~Author Unknown

Wow!  I get to run the train again!  Not sure I can handle this!! LOL!

Well things at work are worsening!  I've been ok, but they are putting most of the Injured on Duty employees on "standby" and they have actually painted a room PINK and this is where they are putting everyone!  The harassment continues!  You know, I know that things are bad, but I don't know why they do the things they do.  It's like they are trying to force people out but they can't because of the contract.  No Lay Off clause, so since they can't lay anyone off, treat them so badly they want to quit. And they are mostly doing it to the disabled employees.  I hope this doesn't come back to bite anyone on the butt!!  The union is having a huge meeting Saturday to discuss this and hopefully let us know of anything we can do. 

Since things are so bad, I'm wondering if I really want to wear my advertising shirt that they gave all of us to wear.  Every Wednesday, we are supposed to wear this shirt advertising Priority Mail!  Every Postal employee in the country is supposed to wear this shirt on Wednesdays.  Your Postal advertising dollars at work!!

Well, better get showered and see what I'm going to be doing today!!  Hope everyone has a great day!  Love ya!

would someone please explain - in short words if needed - WHY after 3 yrs I still fill a flippen plate iwth food for myself!?!?!??!!?

ok rant over....................................Good Morning TMB - got up with Tim and got him and his battle rattle out the door to go to the range - after listening to him explain to K last night how the army takes all the fun out of shooting LOL - Rach back asleep - sweet girl slept in her own bed till time to get up this morning - I think she would have slept longer but Tims alarm disturbed the cat snuggling her and that woke her up

ok update on house - kitchen is organized and unpacked, still have to get my papertowel holder and banna basket hung but that is all in there - pots and spices are up on the wall/ceiling. pantry is unpacked and organized, as is all the stuff in the kids rooms - still need to hang 4 plant hooks - 2 for the hangy baskets from Ikea for Rach - one pink and one orange - and the green one for K plus his giant - I am talking filled Debbi's trunk giant dinosour

need to get more hangers - teen has a closet now for his close to hang in (he had a huge walk in closet in the other hosue and I used it for storage LOL

todays projects are the living room and computer/play room (suppose to be a breakfast knook but whatever - will unpack on the sewing room and do laundry in between - think I will have the kids work on the coat closet AFTER I go get more hangers
hope to get the bookshelves Tim got me assembled today but not till I have at least some of the boxes moved from the living room and the love seat assembled


that leaves more of my room and the gear locker (HUGE upstiars closet fulll of army stuff and camping stuff and tim toys)

Que - loving my rocker and ottoman - have it in Rach's room and we rock in it at night and nap time so she can sleep in her own room - sooooooooo comfy:)

other than that all is good - crazy as normal - managing to get most of my water and vits in - defintally moving and eating randomly but getting a couple of shakes (made with bottled water) so I am not worryed about proitien - and Heven knows I am getting enough exersize runing up and down the stairs and moving boxes and furniture

remember WHY you had your surgery...........to be HEALTHY, so do what YOU need to to be HEALTHY..................water..................vits..................protien..................movement
and smile at people - makes em wonder why
hehehe

peace
Danni
