Wednesday Hump Day
For some reason I'm not tired. Spent all afternoon and evening in ER and I'm home and dressed for bed, but my eyes don't want to close yet. Did a load of laundry and just finished folding it. Maybe I'll take a tylenol pm and hit the hay.
I'll let you know how Gary's doing.
Have a great Wednesday everyone.

Glad your Gary decided to go the ER route, because no matter what, he is in the very best place to be and I'm hoping that whatever they determine that Gary will be home and feeling better in short order!
All things considered, this week is flying by and I while I am still feeling sad and have my teary moments, each day gets a little better, it's the waking up in the morning moments and the walking through my front door in the evening that is hard to do. I had planned to go to the gym, but I just could not bring myself to go, I will get back there, but I'm just tired and I'm guessing a little depressed. When I left work last night, I realized that for most of the last 13 years, I rushed home looking forward to seeing and making sure Dillinger was cared for and last night I had no real reason to go home, so I called my son, my DIL and figured I would go visit the grands, but no one was around, so I went home and my friend Diane, who is my house mate, had made dinner and I ate and watched my soap opera and then Sunday's episode of Brothers & Sisters before going to bed.
I woke up early to my new reality, put on a pot of coffee and came to see what you all are up to, after this I will take my shower, get dressed, maybe I can even manage to wear some make-up today. I will try to find something to be cheerful about and today I will go to an AA meeting, perhaps that will help me some and I will attempt to go to the gym.
My thoughts and prayers are with all, wishing you a good day and the strength to get through whatever life serves up.
Hugs, Laureen
My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

Laureen, I'm sending you a great big hug. Dillinger was your baby and you need time my friend to accept this loss of your fur baby and friend. You need to grieve for awhile. When you are ready rescue a dog that needs a home. You have lots of love to give and there is a dog out there that really needs you. That dog won't replace Dillinger but will fill a need that both of you want and so much need.
Be sure to go to the gym. It will help with your stress and loneliness. It also will help your body feel better, exercise will help with the blues...it's just getting to the gym that's a big hump to get over...once you are there, you will feel better. Hugs Laureen!
Hugs back to you!

I brought my gym clothes up to my office too...It makes me more accountable, I put them on before I leave then I HAVE to go to the gym. It's just a mind game I use I guess.
Spin class for me today after work.
When we get down it does seem like we just want to head home, put on our jammies and we are "done for the day".
I'm still recovering from my vacation. It would be so easy for me to go home and "rest" but I need to exercise. My pants are a little snug after that cruise! Ha...gotta hit that gym...and my support group on Saturday.
