How was your weekend? Did you make good choices? I don't know why summer is harder for me to do just that but it is. You'd think I'd be too hot to eat or something.
We got Jess and Emily off to the airport and they're home safely. Today I'm working 1/2 day and then meeting the family at NRH2O. Bryan goes back to work today- so keep him in prayers if you will that he does okay.
I just finished Jenn Lancaster's book Bright Lights Big Ass-that was funny. I'm so exhausted these days-trying to figure out what's going on. Maybe its the heat. I fall asleep by 9pm each night and that's pushing it for me to keep myself awake until 9.
Hope everyone has a great day today!!!

Good morning everyone!  I'm learning to not like Mondays.  Just the thought of going back to work.  I keep trying to get a job in another agency, but it doesn't work. Not sure why.  We had a meeting at the Union hall Saturday to discuss everything that is going on, especially with the Injured on Duty employees and that stand by room.  I'm not sure we accomplished anything.  We got a copy of the laws, and the USPS regulations.  I think some people were pacified.  They CAN put us in the room, but they CAN'T fire us or take us off work or Excess us to another facility without the Department of Labor coming down on them.  I think the next few months are going to be interesting, and nerve wracking.

Anyway, didn't do much this weekend.  Therese is trying to study, and Sociology is kicking her butt.  These books don't make much sense to her.  She took some time out to grill some meat so now we have a freezer full of ribs, lamb chops and stuff.  I used our vacuum sealer so they won't go bad.  That was the best investment I've ever made!  Love that Food Saver!!

Well, not much else going on.  Gotta go get ready for work.

Good Morning!!


Woke up about 4:40 am and hit the coffee machine!  Weekend was hot!!  Did alot of yard work this weekend and house chores, but that's almost an every weekend thing!  Got my "first" pay check this past week.  I'm blessed to have gotten a job and a pay check.  Don't have anything planned for the week other than going to work and being the dog's nanny! LOL

Hope your Monday is good to you!

Blessings,

Nina

Good Monday Morning, TMB!!!

Why is it weekends seem to get shorter and shorter?!?!?  Beach time didn't happen yesterday - t-storms rumbled thru and I had an 80# german shepherd in my lap while all that was going on!  It ended up being a quiet, lazy Sunday and I needed it!!

I am hoping for a quiet week at work.  Got some small projects along with the regular stuff; lots of customers on vacation this month so all-in-all a quiet week!

Don't forget to take your VITAMINS, drink your WATER, eat PROTEIN first and EXERCISE!  Make good choices, no matter what!

Good Morning Alissa, and the rest of my TMB Family,

What a wonderful weekend we had.  It was nice to spend it together as a family.  Not very often that happens.  Yesterday went to church.  Eric brought his friend Christian home to spend the night.  We picked Mark up at the old house where he had been cleaning the pool.  Then he took us all to Texas Roadhouse...(yummm will have steak for lunch today).  When we got home the boys wanted to go to the pool so I took them for a couple of hours.  They had fun.  I sat in the shade.  Just to hot to be anywhere but.  I am reading a good book called Beautiful Boy about a Dad and his dealings with his sons Meth addiction.  I am really into those kinds of books.  Got alot read.  Anyway back to Monday.  Mark is at PT, the coffee is ready, I can hear the storms coming and everything is good.  I am truly blessed to be in such a good place, with people who love me, and who I love so much.  It will be hard to find the support I have here with all of you anywhere else I go.  Ok did not mean to get all mushey on ya'll.  Danni, with every post you post it reminds me of something else I will need to do once we get to DE.  I have the name and number of the school Eric will be attending, and am thinking about calling them.  Want to make sure they are set up for his dislexia, and advanced math class.  Did you contact the boys school before you got there?  I hope our move goes as smoothly as yours has.  Ok time to get a move on.  Mark is home from PT.  Prayers for all those in need this morning.  Have a blessed day.  Love you guys.  Michelle

GA requires a health screening before you can registar them - the hospital did a mass one this sat so they are now set to go and I should be able to registar them as soon as I figure out where our "lease" is for proof of resedency - K got one shot (would have had to have it in tx anyhow) poor teen got 3, 2 of which made him feel crappy plus sore with hot spots from the injection site and fever - he spend a lot of yest in bed asleep

just make lists - lots and lots of lists and then watch your packers like a hawk - found my sewing maching on it's side sans case with stuff piled on top of it - grrrrr and LOTS of miss labled boxes - next move I am only letting them pack one room at the time and I am inspeciting and relableing boxes as needed - this is BS esp in a 2 story house LOL

We had problems with our movers too.  I learned the hard way that I should move my really precious stuff.  My great great grandmothers china got packed, and I asked them to put an X on the box and to be really careful with it.  Well my fault, one of the cups got broken.  Not replaceable.  Anyway will pack that myself and and put it in the car with me.  I will need to start making lists soon.  Just going to follow your example all along the way!

Michelle.....you might try going on Ebay and seeing  you if can find a replacement cup there.   Sometimes they have really unusual things on there for sale.    Good luck with that and I am sorry your cup got broken in your move.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian
