The NIGH****CHMAN - Monday 3/8
Slept pretty good. Ought to make tonight go a little easier.
Not much else for right now. Will be back later.
Just so you know, you need to TAKE YOUR VITAMINS AND SUPPLEMENTS and make sure you get your daily allotment of PROTEIN.
If you are new to the board, this link explains what the NIGHT WATCHMAN is (if you are interested). Otherwise, just read on, you will probably figure it out anyway.

Slowly recovering... getting more fluids in today than the past 2 days combined. Have lost about 3lbs in the past few days *not in a good way* Left early from work cause I wasn't feeling great... Went to my Dr for a follow up from this weekend... and he had given me another b12 shot *yayyy it made me hungry* So I came home and made chicken salad with egg and had it with fresh spinach! We'll see how long this is tolerated! *crossing fingers it stays*
Gonna take it easy play a bit online then hit the pillows.
Prayers going up for those in need.
*Strength... it's inside, beside, behind and all around me*
Evenin' George...
A rather wet one down here in Katy today. Blech! Hubby was home today as he ALWAYS gets sick after being on an airplane which he was last week. He's so icky when he's sick (sneezing out into the air, blowin' the ol schnaz at the table, etc.) Just makes me sick. Hard for me to teach my girls manners when their own dad has ZERO when it comes to basic manners! YUCK! Heather actually read him the riot act and threatened to spray him with Lysol if he didn't go wash his hands after blowing his nose! I told him he was just being VERY inconsiderate to the rest of us and by doing so, is just asking for one of the rest of us to come down with something while on spring break next week - at the beach in Florida! Yeah, THAT will be loads of fun if I have sick kids on vacation. Oh, well, by then he'll be good as new. 
A couple ladies at his office emailed me today and said, "sorry he's home with you but THANK YOU for not letting him come in". I told them both I didn't think it was right for him to share all his germies at work and at the time he went to bed, he had planned on going but apparently woke up feeling even worse so opted to stay home. He did go see his doc today so he's now on meds. He was taking some stuff already but now hopefully the meds will kick in and drain all that congestion that is making his head feel like it is huge. Sooo, had to deal with THAT all day. YUCK!
I think the pooch figured out there was something up with "daddy" being home so just jumped in my lap and curled up into a tight ball for a couple naps today. Rainy days are definitely good days to take a nap!
Hope you have a decent night at work!
) so it just has to be the noise it makes.Just finished a nasty project with Heather. UGH. I feel bad she was up until nearly 1:30 but the teacher gave it with ONE day to do it. It was a time line of civil rights. Heather's handwriting is horrible. She knows it and so does the teacher so she has to type everything out, then cut and paste it to the presentation paper. All that just takes boat-loads of time. UGH. Then she tells me that she has another project in this same history class that thankfully is not due until the 31st, but they have to find some significant thing from the 60's or 70's - like how Big Bird was brought out in one of those decades, or the Muppets themselves which of course Jim Henson was the iconic puppeteer who most present day puppeteers try to model themselves after. With the Muppets came the popularity of Elmo and all that. Whatever they pick they have to dress from head to toe for maximum points. It could be clothing from that era, music, fads, people, etc. Trying to figure out something because I'm thinking of the "you have to dress like that" thing and having her dress like someone like Kermit the Frog may not be too easy! I HATE SCHOOL PROJECTS (AKA PARENT PROJECTS)!!!
In case I don't say it often enough... Thanks George for doing this post every night! I don't always post, but I always read!
Hugs, Mari
Sorry I've been underground again. I've had a really bad week since I returned from my grandmother's funeral. Work has been kicking my butt to the point I'm researching other options.
I'm embarrassed to admit that I cried more today than I did at the funeral. And that's not what it's supposed to be about.
Prayers for all who need them.
