WOW- I am getting a later start because I was busy playing farmville so I expected the train to have pulled out of the station already. That's okay, I'll just start hitting buttons until we get moving.

Today is marvelous Monday-what will you do to make it so? I'm going to focus on my eating. I've been pretty down because my foot is still really hurting and its frustrating. Its better than before surgery and I know its all part of the process but I'm really irked.

We got Chris a new bed and shelving. He has my old queen sized mattress and bedroom set and its just too big-he has no floor space. So, we got him a twin bed with drawers underneath it and some shelving instead of a dresser to put his tv and dvd/games on. That will free up alot of space in his room. The bedroom set is in fairly good condition-just the end tables are messed up and the mattress is good still. It has a big chest of drawers with a mirror. If you know someone that could use this, let us know. We'll probably donate to charity the week of Thanksgiving when Bryan is home all week, if we don't have any takers.

I hope everyone has a great day today!

Alyssa!  I think I know someone that could use it.  Can you hold it until I can ask him??

Not much going on with me today.  Spent the weekend helping a friend move away from a crazy psychotic biotch!  She went away for the weekend and he moved out!  That's the friend who may need the bed!  Now I'm sore and ready for more sleep, but have to get up because of work!

Speaking of work, still haven't heard on the jobs.  I know that three of the four jobs at FAA haven't been filled yet.  The one that's been filled was the one that was only open for 3 days.  They had someone in mind for that and there's nothing you can do about that. Oh well, onward and forward.

Speaking of work, better get into the shower and off to it.  Ya'll have a great day!  Love ya!

Good Morning Train!

WOOOOHOOO for Monday.... morning workouts that are done..... LOL  Work gave us Friday casual for the rest of the year except when clients are in... So this morning I feel weird with dress pants and a nice blouse on..... LOL

Prayers going out to all that need them!

Here's an apt song for today.... It's The Mamas and The Papas Monday, Monday!


Monday, Monday, so good to me;
Monday morning, it was all I hoped it would be.
Oh, Monday morning, Monday morning couldn't guarantee
That Monday evening you would still be here with me.
Monday, Monday, can't trust that day;
Monday, Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way.
Oh, Monday morning, you gave me no warning of what was to be.
Oh, Monday, Monday, how could you leave and not take me?
Every other day, every other day
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah.
But whenever Monday comes - but whenever Monday comes
You can find me crying all of the time.
Monday, Monday, so good to me;
Monday morning, it was all I hoped it would be.
But Monday morning, Monday morning couldn't guarantee
That Monday evening you would still be here with me.
Every other day, every other day
Every other day of the week is fine, yeah.
But whenever Monday comes - but whenever Monday comes
You can find me crying all of the time.
Monday, Monday, can't trust that day;
Monday, Monday, it just turns out that way.
Oh, Monday, Monday, won't go away;
Monday, Monday, it's here to stay.
Oh Monday, Monday
Oh Monday, Monday

Ya'll have a great day my friends!

Good morning Train Riders!!  Getting around here, drinking a protein shake and poking around on the Internet.  Going to walk Kennoth to school in a while then head down to Jacksonville to shop before my flight.  I have had a fantastic weekend and wi**** would last much longer (though I do miss Jeff and the dogs so I'm looking forward to seeing them). 

We did a ton of stuff yesterday.  Started off putzing around the house, then loaded up two of the kids and went to a flea market.  It was pretty cool, kind of like Traders Village in Grand Prairie. Then it was off to the animal park where we walked around and saw all sorts of neat animals and got some cute pictures of the kids.  Last we drove out to Tybee Island to try to find the Atlantic beach.  Frist place we stopped at was a lighthouse and museum.  We seriously thought about walking up the 178 steps to the top of the lighthouse, but Danni couldn't take Rachel in the hard pack because it was too big, and she didn't have a soft pack in the car. 

Instead we found the beach and wow, what a blast!  Rachel and Kennoth tore off into the water and had so much fun jumping and letting the wave**** them.  I waded in too, so now I've been in each of the bodies of water around the US.  Very cool stuff!  I was hoping to find a sand dollar or something there, but there were just some regular shells.  It was beautiful and I'm so glad we ended our day there.

Hope everyone has a great day! Do something nice for yourself today.

Good morning all! What a GREAT weekend...but alas, all great things but end...back to reality today...

CRAP!!

Had such a good time on the "road trip" to KARLA's, and then at her birthday and slumber party-my stupid headache didn't even stop my fun...

The 2nd Disney Princess Half Marathon is only 4 months away now, so I have to get honestly serious with myself about my training, and quit jacking around. It's as much MENTAL as PHYSICAL, and I'm having trouble getting my MENTAL on straight-not that my PHYSICAL is so hot either!! I'm planning to pay my entry fee soon (over $120), so it's quite a commitment, just in itself--not counting the cost of the trup, etc---but soooooo worth it...

Back to work this morning. Lots to do, of course, but having "passed" the State survey should ease the tension  a bit for some folks. My job pretty much stays the same, cuz I didn't get "crazy" anyway...lol--no more than usual...

Hope everyone has a great day and has at least one really good thing happen to them!

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