I didn't get a wink last night. Don't know whatz up, but I think it's PTSD. If I don't take sleeping pills, no sleep. And drinking just leaves me with a hangover the next morning, even tho I get a couple of hours of sleep with it. My next appt with the VA is October, so I can't talk to them about the meds until then. I just wish they would approve my claim!

On the positive side, the union said that people are going back to work at the PO that were taken off because of National Reassessment Process (being injured on duty). That they "interpreted" the rulings incorrectly! Yeah, right. I'm still putting in for jobs around the country. I just want to go back to work. I guess the life of Riley isn't for me. Well, it's not really Riley's life, he had money to spend! LOL! And he probably didn't have $340 electric bills! Jeesh! I hate Texas in the summer!

Well, guess I'd better get going. I finally finished the VFW newsletter and I need to get the mailing labels done for the Post to mail them out.  Y'all have a great day! Love ya!

 Morning Everyone,

Not sure yet if it is a good morning or not so good one yet.  LOL   Something must have been in the air last night because I didn't sleep well either.    I hate when that happens.   Now I will be tired all day long.    I booked our vacation yesterday.    My hubby LOVES Vegas ( I do too but not for the gambling there.   LOL ).   SO  a week or so after NOLA we are going to Vegas (with my sister and niece ) so I won't be running the streets of Vegas by myself.   LOL   We will probably catch some shows and of course walk and enjoy all the lights of the big city.    Thinking about doing a Hoover Dam Tour.    Trying to decide if we would enjoy it or if it is a "man thing" to do.  LOL   OH well.....Prayers said for everyone in need.   Hope everyone stays hydrated.   Have a wonderful day and remember to love yourself.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Vivian,

Hoover Dam is one those things that has to be seen in person to truly be appreciated.  It is an incredible piece of engineering that was done with pencil, paper and slide rule.  Great lesson in American History too!  Have made over dozen trips to Vegas and on at least three of them went on a tour either of the dam itself or on a tour in which a tour was included.  Go!

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!

 Thanks Don....just booked 4 tours on Groupon.   I got the tours half price.   WOO HOO.   I know last time we went to Vegas my hubby wanted to go there but it didn't really appeal to me with the cost of almost $80 for each one....but for $39 for a 5 hour tour.....that is a great deal.   Plus who knows.....we may LOVE it.     Have a blessed day.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Make sure to carry plenty of water with you!  You'll be surrounded by sun baked rock and concrete and needless to say in the desert it is HOT!  But it is a "dry" heat!

 Thanks Don.   We have been in Vegas in Oct. and Nov. but never Sept. before.   I know Kim said it is as hot there now as it is here.   UGH Hate that thought.   OH well...it will be fun anyway,

 Hey Train!

Yesterday was busy busy.  I spent an hour in line at the financial aid office to pick up the book card scholorship I received.  $300 for books...it helped but was still painful as the total for my books was $700.  So I still paid over half out of pocket.

I also picked up my chef uniform for class.  I'm so excited!  I have one more pair of pants I want to get but this will work for now.

Today I'm hoping to get to the eye doctor.  I'm going to see if I can make contacts work again.  I think it will make working in the kitchen much easier if my glasses aren't steaming up or sliding down my  nose.  I also have some house pick up to do.

Have a great day everyone.

 That is exciting Jenn.   I would love to be a chef.   But that isn't going to happen.   LOL   With all the wonderful things that you are always making  you will make a wonderful chef.     Good luck on your classes.
