Hi Laura & TMB,

I am actually up and at work.  I have to pull 12 hours today.  I had an absolute blast this weekend at the OH conference and to top it all off  to see the beautiful stadium on yesterday.  I will make a post later and upload my pictures.  Have a great day everyone.

Good morning!  How's everyone?  I'll have to go look at photos from the conference this weekend and see how everything went!  Wish I could have gone, but alas, it wasn't to be!  Maybe next time.

I found out some great news Friday.  I can put in for jobs directly to the selecting official as a non-competitive basis since I'm already a govt worker!  Which may help!  A friend who works at FAA now told me about that!  So today, I'm going to try to find out who the selecting officials are to some of the jobs I've been putting in for and hopefully get them mailed out with a special little cover letter and we'll see how it goes!!  Keep your fingers crossed!!

We had another plumbing problem this weekend!  I hope this was the last one until the pipe in the front yard that comes into the house goes!  And I hope I not jinxing it, but that is the last one that CAN go!  And that means digging up the front yard, so hopefully it will be a while for that one!  LOL!  Getting tired of plumbing problems here, you know?!

Well, speaking of plumbing, guess I'd better get to the shower and get to work!  Ya'll have a great day!  Love ya!!!

Good Morning!  Thankfully I slept some last night I was beat from the weekend.  What a weekend of fun and excitement.

Monday rolls around again, it'll be a busy week but it's doeable.  After spending such fun with all my friends, I can do anything.

To all of you I didn't see/meet this weekend hopefully soon.  To those I got to spend time with, WOW you all are amazing; old friends and new friends I'll cherish forever.

Have a great week!

Hugs,

Good Mornig Laura and the rest of my TMB Family,

Wow, what a weekend.  I am so glad that I was able to go.  I cant tell you how much it has meant to me over the past three years to have all of you there, to answer questions, to laugh with me and to cry with me.  Never ever will I find such a great group of friends anywhere we go.  I especially want to thank my roomies (Meggie, Karen Carol and Rebecca) for making room at the last minuet for an extra one.  It could not have happened any better then it did.  I have posted pictures here on OH and also on FB.  I am off this morning to have an injection in my SI joing.  We have to be at the hospital at 6:30.  Mark has a 7:30 doctors appt so I hope they dont have a fit when he leaves for a little bit.  He will be coming back for me.  Will probably take the rest of the day to get caught up on my Bible Study so I am ready for tomorrow.  Ok need to make sure Eric is ready for school before we leave.  Prayers this morning for all those in need.  Have a blessed day.  I love you guys more then you know!

good morning all - glad so many peeps had a blast at the conf - we took some time to go bike riding - first with out the kiddos then with Rach in teh bike trailer and she LOVES the bike trailer - kept getting into it and aksing for her helmet everytime we went outside the rest of the day

both little kids are coughing up a storm so I am waiting for 7 and will call and get them both in- hoping to hear alegerys but not expecting it - oh well at least Tim is home so I don't have to try to deal with them both totally on my own

my FIL gets here Wed - hoping for healthy kids by then - have to let him know Rach now says Ganpa - it is cute

still waiting for Grandma Kathey to have peace - they have her strickly on comfort meds nothing else per her wishes but she is a stuborn old indian and is holding on - her daughter Jo is having the worst of it as Jo is "the responsible person" if I was there we would be sharing that role but I am here and they are in OK - praying for both of them

Tim is on leave for 2 weeks - looking forward to enjoying some low stress time - looking for the positives in everything - it is helping with my overall feelings tward life - every thing that is a negitive I must come up with a postiive for- even if it's a silly positive thing it helps

take your vits, get your protien and water and move your bum today - remember WHY you had surgery

peace

Good morning all!! Flying thru this..can't find anything this am..probably cuz most everything still in my suitcase, due to the fact the Princess of Procratination did not unpack yesterday, and, therefore could not find her deodorant, warpaint, etc while half asleep this morning..I may have put Secret across my eyelids..not sure...

I won't dwell on the weekend, in respect for our family members who couldn't be there...but...WOWSERS...

I'm so tired this morning, and I have a booger of a work week in front of me-end of the month in "the Medicare world" is a busy one, and I had a slew of new admissions last week, so it's gonna be double duper busy...."job security", I guess, since I'm the only one who knows how to do what I do..and I barely know how to do it myself, most days...lol..I just pray I can find patience with my co-workers, when what I really want to do is smack 'em or let someone pee in their chair...

Special prayers for JACK and ALISSA, as they heal from their recent surgeries--up that PROTEIN, y'all..it's not just for WLS, ya know...

Hope everyone has a healthy day-choose your mood!

I LOVE Y'ALL AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT!!

Hey Gina, how long does it take to rid your body of all that junk they pumped into me this weekend? The scale says they pumped 20# of fluid in me. I know it must be the fluid cause I sure didn't eat that much with a sore abdomin!!!
Thanks for the prayers everyone.

 Good morning All,
 I thought I would catch this train from work this am. Get off at 8 today. But I do not have to be at other case till 3pm, and at least it is in FW. I am in Plano now. John went to Plainview this weekend, Mom and Dad are "aging". Pray he drives home safe today.  All else is status quo. 
 Many Angels out today. Prayers for us all,
Angels for everyone.
Much Love, Hugs and Kisses

Such a fun weekend...WOW!  Not enough time to visit with all the peeps there...it's amazing how time flew by!

So much thanks to the roomies: Dana, Terry, Liz, and Loralea...it was great fun. 

I am exhausted...came home and tended to animals, unpacked, and got in the car and went to my oldest nephews 24th birthday dinner.  Got home at 9:00 p.m....not in bed until 10:30...too late after the weekend.  I see a nap in my future today!

Prayers for Alissa to heal and all others who need our prayers.

Have a great Monday!

Karla
