Tuesday 11-1-11 WLS Express
Dang - its almost 9am and If I'm the one starting up the train and driving it
WE ARE GONNA BE IN TROUBLE - CUZ I DON'T HAVE A DIRECTION !!
My heart is very heavy this morning. Prayers for a co-worker of mine. He and his wife lost their baby this past Saturday I believe.
The baby was due next Monday....but started having contractions or something a little over a week ago. they monitored her (babys heart rate dropped or something during that time of monitoring ) and after a while said that everything looked okay and sent her home, and then this past Saturday this happened. Apparently - the placenta "crashed" and the baby possibly drowned before they could get to the hospital. This same couple lost another baby about 2-3 yrs ago also - quite far in her pregnancy then also.
I'm at work - as usual.............but I love my job -
Is it possible to still LOVE your job but yet - be bored too all at the same time?
I've been doing some serious thinking and concentrating on what exactly and where I've been turning and why I do this and or that in my eating habits.
Every since I read something that someone sent to me - the last sentence said:
You are eating because you are bored and NOT hungry.......makes sense to me now.
So with that having been said: I've been trying to grab crocheting or something else in those times to off set my stinkin' thinkin. What about you - what crafts or projects do you have going or that are just sitting for months, or in my case even years that maybe you might like to start working on?
Happy Tuesday everyone !! ((((((((((Huggss))))))))))

Good morning,
Prays for your co-worker.
I had yesterday off but Dad was admitted to the hospital with pneumonia early Monday morning so I didn't get to the shopping I had planned.
I fight late night snacking and I know it's from boredom cause I am not hungry. I need to find a hobby or something since I work from home most days I don't even leave the house.
I also tend to eat when I get stress with work, I am working on trying to figure out why but I think it's a my way of putting something off even if only for a few minutes. Luckily neither has caused regain and I been successfully in staying within my calorie range but I am still eating when I am not hungry.
On a good note we had a lot of trick or treaters last night and was able to get rid of all the candy.
Have a great day

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CAN NOT CHANGE; COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS THAT I CAN; AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE !!!! THIS IS MY DAILY PRAYER.

I'm bringing the rear of the train up this evening. I was tired this morning and snuggled in with the hubby until his alarm went off instead of getting up with mine.
Phyllis- I've been thinking about your coworker since you posted on FB. So incredibly sad. I can't even fathom what they're going through.
Sometimes when I feel like snacking because I'm bored, I color. It might sound crazy, but I have always loved coloring. One of my favorite things to color is mandelas-which are intricate patterns. I keep markers and a mandela book at work and I have crayons and regular coloring books at home because I color pictures to mail to Abby and Emily. But, whatever you like to do is what you should do.
Hope everyone had a great day!
