Thursday WLS Express- I can see the weekend around the bend

There's a light at the end of the tunnel of a week- and I hope its not a train! So hop on and tell us-how's your week been?

It better be Friday instead! This week has been LONG. Busy at work and busy at home because Bryan has been out of town. He gets home today thankfully. I should have gone to the chiro yesterday but I was just so tired that I came home instead. I'm hoping I can go today. Tomorrow I'll be busy writing reports and doing all the paperwork I can't seem to get done when I'm in the office. Thank goodness for work at home Fridays.

Hope everyone has a great day today!

Good morning. ALISSA, and the rest of my TMB family!

Short nights and long days seem to be my pattern this week..crap..I'm whooped..feel like Eeyore, but kinda be perky like Pooh...too bad I dump on honey...

This morning I sorta "forgot" about muscle soreness...a GOOD THING..hopped out of bed..promptly hit the floor, like a newborn colt...too bad someone didn't catch a video-was probably pretty funny-I just sat there, and laughed, myself..I DO feel lots, lots better today-and barely "crooked" anymore. One of our marketing reps, at work, is a licensed massaged therapist, and he gave me some quick, freebie therapy rubs yesterday. Am REALLY hoping he draws MY 'Secret Santa" name!!

I have Christmas parties tonight/tomorrow night/Sat night, then Tuesday night am going to the Dallas Meth bariatric party with JANET S (my new friend, Tammy, is the bariatric coordinator-the one I met at mile 6-who drunk me over the finish line). I'm TRYING to get "in the spirit", and be happy, but all I can think of is the FOOD I want to AVOID. I find myself wishing the whole season was OVER..Depression?? Sour grapes due to low finances and not having small/excited chilren (even though I have BIG/excited children)..I have not even decorated..but I will NOT be a downer for anyone else--I will go to these parties and smile! smile! smile!

With this being Blake's first Christmas, you are more than welcome to borrow him any time! I'm not sure he understands any of it but he is having a blast "un" decorating everything!

T-totally screwed up with the City Secretary's husband dying.  Memorial service is going to be tomorrow but the time is not set and I've got MAJOR errand running I've got to get done Friday since I'm off.  I may have to get started on my list when I get off today.

counting days till I head home for the holidays - one day and one week (providing the army is cooperative)

yesterday Rach and I got to decorate a Cmas tree in the company area - she had a blast and we got 4 or 5 soldiers involved between assembling the tree (there were actually 2.5 trees in the box we were given LOL****angling the lights  - think biggest Rubbermaid box they make FULL of tangled lights only part of which worked and then finally decorating it
Today we will do the one at battalion -not sure on timing I may do it after my meetings before she gets done with school - this one will be in blue and silver the battalions colors the one in the company area is red and gold (the only other choices in the boxes that the guys dug out for us)

It got cold here yesterday afternoon we dropped from the 70s to the 40s in about an hour and it hasn't warmed up and isn't suppose to for several days -oh well I have a nice jacket from last year that fits - that is a cool part of my journey - clothes that fit from year to year, 5 years out and I am still surprised every season change when I pull out last years clothes and they fit

Gina hope you get over the soreness soonest

peace

 Good Morning Alissa and TMB Family,

My week has been extremely emotional since one of 2 of my son's friends died of a drug overdose.   I am still very emotional about it although I am getting better.    I am going to try really hard to get hold of this young man's Momma today and see if she will meet with me tomorrow to talk.   PLEASE pray that she will.    She is on the streets of Ft. Worth and strung out on drugs and alcohol herself too.   I am going to try to persuade her to go to Teen Challenge ( not only for teens but for people up to 65 yrs. old ).     I can so relate with Gina.....I am going to my bariatric surgeons Christmas Party for his patients tonight.    That's usually the only Christmas party I attend every year.    Please everyone keep my middle son in your thoughts and prayers.   He is trying to get sick.    He said he feels like he is getting Broncitious.   I don't know about everyone else but I am ready for the new year to begin !!!! Have a blessed day today everyone.   Prayers still being said for our Meggie and for Saundra.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian
