FaLaLa Friday WLS Express
Good Morning Train!
WOOOOOHOOOO for Friday! I'm off all next week and head to my Mom's house for most of it! Guess I need to do laundry and pack some this weekend, LOL I'll have limited time/access while there, but I'll try to keep the music going!
Prayers are going up to all that need them!
And another great sing-a-long song to wind up the week...
I broke my bat on Johnny's head;
Somebody snitched on me.
I hid a frog in sister's bed;
Somebody snitched on me.
I spilled some ink on Mommy's rug;
I made Tommy eat a bug;
Bought some gum with a penny slug;
Somebody snitched on me.
Oh, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad.
I'm getting nuttin' for Christmas
'Cause I ain't been nuttin' but bad.
I put a tack on teacher's chair
Somebody snitched on me.
I tied a knot in Susie's hair
Somebody snitched on me.
I did a dance on Mommy's plants
Climbed a tree and tore my pants
Filled the sugar bowl with ants
Somebody snitched on me.
So, I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
Mommy and Daddy are mad.
I'm gettin' nuttin' for Christmas
'Cause I ain't been nuttin' but bad.
I won't be seeing Santa Claus;
Somebody snitched on me.
He won't come visit me because
Somebody snitched on me.
Next year I'll be going straight;
Next year I'll be good, just wait
I'd start now, but it's too late;
Somebody snitched on me.
So you better be good whatever you do
'Cause if you're bad, I'm warning you,
You'll get nuttin' for Christmas.
Ya'll have a great day my friends!

I thought Ambien was supposed to help you sleep? I've been getting only 2 or 3 hours a night before I wake up. Then I have problems getting back to sleep, I finally doze off at 4 am only to have to get up at 5. Ugh! Not making for nice days!!
Today we are taking food to work to share for the holiday! I made chicken dip, spinach dip with hawaiian bread, RUM balls, and Chocolate RUM balls!! Not going to eat the RUM balls because I can't have alcohol with this medication, but boy, do they smell good!! One of the guys makes one heck of a cheese ball, from what I've heard, and I can't wait to taste it!
Well, better get into the shower. Maybe it'll wake me up! Y'all have a great day! Love ya!

Laura,
I took Ambien for about 6 months and found myself talking to people and doing things I did not remember. Now I am taking Lunesta and it works great. Dont feel hungover when I get up and I always manage to get 8 hours sleep. What dosage of Ambien are you taking? Could it be you need a higher dose? Just a suggestion!
Good Morning My TMB Family,
Finally it is Friday. Did anyone else think that this was a very long week? I know Alissa is on the road so thought I woul get us started. I finally went yesterday and got my blood work done. When we were in Texas the lab at the clinic on base would not take all the blood work done that needed to be done so I really thought it would be that way here too, but when I went to the lab and he preceded to print out one label after I another I realzied they were going to take it all this time. 11 Viles later and I was done. Really glad that he took it seriously. I just handed him the list that Dana had given me years ago and he went off of that. Needless to say when he was done I did not feel all the great so came home and laid down. Not much on the agenda today. Tim was supposed to be coming tonight or tomorrow morning but it looks like we are in for one heck of a snow storm. They are predicting 8-12" of the white stuff. So dont want Tim trying to travel with that beautiful baby boy. Guess they are going to try and come up Christmas night and we can do our Christmas the day after. t's fine. I need to clean today. So not planning to go anywhere. Its to darn cold anyway 23 outside. Prayers this morning that are traveling, and for those that need a healing hand! Have a blesseday day. Love you guys.
Prayers to all who need them. Safe travels for Danni and Alissa.
Have a great Friday! It's hard to believe this time next week is Christmas day.

Youch is right! I can feel for you... I'm salaried and in May of this year they made everyone take a 5% pay cut across the board.... that doesn't sound like much, but it amounted to about $400 a month take home pay.... somehow or the other I managed to cut costs and not come out in the red, but it sure did hurt a lot!
