Thursday WLS Express
Good morning, family! Is it Friday yet??? as ALISSA says "one more sleep", till then...
Killer work day yesterday, as Wednesdays usually are...one of our owners (I call them "Skipper, Scooter, Jimmy and Clark"-not their real names, but they are all young guys who don't know their azz from a hole in their ground, about the bizz, but they have $$, ya know??, so they get to be the bosses)...anyhoo...one of the guys--my original owner was watching an "exchange" between me a twit (i.e. other employee, who makes more $$ than me, but I have to micro manage her paperwork, etc)..."Clark" walked up, hugged me, walked away...when I got home last night, and was undressing, I found a $100 bill, in my pocket-obviously put there during the hug! It even smelled like him! Makes killer days somehow easier!
Today I am the BBIC (Big B*t*****harge), as everyone else is either off, or on assignment. I'll be the one NEEDING to put $$ in pockets !!
Speaking of $$, hope DON is winning lots of it (didn't he say he was going to Shreveport?)
So...what's on YOUR agenda for today????

We Can Do Hard Things
Took flower to Moms graveside and had a nice chat.I have been really worried about my good sister and it helped to turn it over to God and Mom to take care of her. It is quite liberating to just let the Big Guy be in charge!
My weight is holding but a little low. Its ok as long as I dont lose more.
yall go out and make it a great day or just fake it!!

I'm up and drinking my coffee. Not much on my agenda so far. I do have to go and have my eye pressure checked at 9:15. I HATE doing that but have to do it about every 3 or 4 months. In 2 weeks I will be headed south again to pick my son up. He has a 3 day pass.....I know HE is looking forward to it but Momma is getting pretty tired of driving 11 to 12 hours in a day. He will be home 1 day then I will have to turn around and repeat the process. I guess it's OK though. At least we will get to spend some time with him. If hotels weren't SO expensive I would try to talk him into spending his 3 day pass there. Oh well....guess that is life.

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.

GINA: WHAT A HUG THAT MUST HAVE BEEN !! LOL
Just shows ya that God is on control and he will take care of our every NEED. I'm learning the difference between NEED and want............sometimes a hard lesson is learned by going through things.......wow !!
All is good - I think that my pants are getting a little bigger on me so I'm doing something right. I'm keeping out of the candy dishes here at work and when I have that "gotta grab something" feeling - I have pistaccios to hunt and pick at.......maybe not the greatest thing to grab - but its a start and a little more protein. When I feel like I'm making better choices - I learn that that may not be so......so I get knocked down a little and then I think - OH well - its a better choice for ME than what I would have normally done in the past.....so its a start too !
Gotta get back to work. All is well and I'm feeling better. Still on a little pain med each day - but i'm getting around much better. doing a few excercises each night for the knees and I feel those the next day !! lol
Luv you all !! HAVE A GREAT DAY !!

PHYLLIS-nuts are WAY better choice than what's in those candy dishes-GOOD FOR YOU-but don't be counting on those nuts for your daily PROTEIN intake-ok? and be sure to up your water intake, to offset the salt in the nuts, to help with the healing, in your knee...
Ok..that's all my nurse/mama lecturing..for NOW...
