Wacky Wednesday WLS Express
Here's to hopefully a short 2 more days of work and then I'm off Friday, Monday-Wed of next week to be with my family. Its the first time in years that everyone will be together at one time so I'm quite excited. Hope everyone has a great day today!
I am up earlier for not having to work this week, about to head out to put my car in the shop and hoping it doesn't break the bank. DH is off today as well so I am sure we will stop and eat breakfast while we are out. Nothing really planned might do a little shopping as I need some winter clothes.
Have a great day!

Good morning, ALISSA, and the rest of my TMB family! I almost started the train this morning, but I LIKE when ALISSA does it. A-anytime it's not on the tracks by the time I get to work, I'll know you are stuck in the station and I'll be glad to load the coal-otherwise, YOU are the engineer-okay???
Yesterday was a very busy work day-as I knew it would be-and today will likely be more of the same, with half our staff out. Amazingly enough, none of our pts passed on Christmas Day, for which I am thankful, for the sake of their loved ones. We had 2 on Christmas Eve, but both were anticipated deaths, of gentlemen who had lead full lives, and had recently been having a very rough time of things. Their families were relieved to give them back to God, and end the suffering, when there no "medical cures" available.
I bet our KARLA is having a fantastic time on her Cayman Islands vacation. color me green!! I can't wait to see her pics, and live vicariously thru her and Ben.
Sigh..time for my morning work conference call already, so better get in gear...Hope everyone has a WOOHOO Wednesday!!!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE y'all !!!

We Can Do Hard Things
Well like you Alissa I only have to make it through today and tomorrow and have Friday off, but I'm not lucky enough to have time off next week. I'll take what I can get though. Today is just another day in the office. Where I work we deal with a lot of public schools so it has been really quiet lately as they are all on winter break. Sure nice to be able to work and not be interrupted as much.
Tonight my DH invited over a few friends to watch the Holiday Bowl. Not the best bowl game to be in but with how bad UT played this year getting into a bowl game at all is lucky. DH is going to BBQ and since he has the week off, lucky for me, he is doing most of the cleaning too.
Alissa glad you are feeling better. Saundra I have my fingers crossed the the repairs to your car don't cost too much.
Well like Gina I have to get back to work.
Have a great day everyone!
Praying for your repair bill to be small Saundra. Glad your feeling much better Alissa. Good to see your beautiful face on the TMB Jennifer. Not really much going on right now at my home. Hubby and I are watching Let's Make A Deal on TV. I went to Teen Challenge last night and took more "goodies" for the guys. They still had lots of cookies and things left from Christmas day when I went there. Prayers needed for my son ( he was sick yesterday and not feeling well ). He has to go out on a work crew today to help demo a motel for freeway expansion. He will be working not too far from my home. I took all the guys pizza there on monday so I may run out there today and see them again. Please if ya'll think about it keep these guys in your prayers and all the others in Teen Challenge programs. The holidays are REALLY hard on them being away from their families and loved ones. Trust me.....it is HARD on their families too. I cried all the way to Teen Challenge on Christmas Day. But it HAS to be done in order for him and all the other guys to heal from their addictions. Not much going on in my house today except just hanging out and doing house work. I did cut up a German Chocolate cake I made Christmas into pieces and freeze them since my youngest son had not cut it and ate any of it. I don't want it to go to waste. LOL Have a blessed day and enjoy our nice weather while it lasts.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian
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.

Go figure.....good jammy weather expected on Monday when I'm off work.........gonna snuggle and watch tv and crochet..............
I'm really working on concentrating on getting in 70+ protein each day and trying to incorporate a little movement they call excercise into my body - my knees are not too happy - so I'm really listening to them to be careful not to tweak them too much because the pain that I had on Saturday from being in the car too long was just not fun....:)) when they talk - Phyllis listens !! lol
Not much planned here....I'm working like the rest of you. We get off early on Friday - 3pm - then I'm gonna go to 2nd job early and await our work there and hopefully we can get out of there by 930...as usual.
Saturday - working at Wells Fargo - 3rd job .......I don't know what they are planning for the NYE as work schedule. Our dept was closed on Christmas Day and Monday - the day after...but not sure what the mgmt's plan is for the NY holiday.........hopefully I"ll get an email so that I can plan. I'm planning on leaving work by 4pm on Sat so that I can babysit.... 5 kids. I've been told that I'm nuts - but oh well - I don't have anything planned so I might has well help another family have fun !! lol
I gotta go.
Luv youall - maybe I'll see some of you tomorrow at 11:30...
