***** FRIDAY ROLL CALL *****
I am at work, then off to the grocery store and home to crash. This week has wiped me out something terrible.
This weekend lets see... tomorrow my FIL is coming over, dreading this, then I have a baby shower for a dear friend in the afternoon, haven't seen her since before my surgery so it should be interesting! Then sunday I'll putz around the house cleaning and gardening/yard work, nothing too exciting.
Keeping Nan and her family in my thoughts and prayers today too.
Make it a great friday!

I am getting ready to head to my therapy appointment. Then, I have to clean this place up, as I might be babysitting the munchkin one more time tonight. Then, I will go for a swim, and hopefully have the baby. She and I will go shopping for a present for her mommy, as tomorrow we are having a birthday dinner for my daughter. Her birthday is next Friday, but she is going back to Michigan in a few days.
I am praying for Nan as well today.
Hugs,

Today is my 5 month surgiversary - I have not regretted this surgery for one moment - even thru some of the rougher times. My eating is good now - getting most of my proteins from food - some from shakes and bars, but I try to get it from food. Am exercising 6 days a week minimum and I just feel so much better. Sometimes I look at myself and don't see a change - other times I'm amazed at the changes!
I'm at work - might be a long, quiet day - lots of people out today. New family room carpet is coming today so I'll be anxious to see that when I get home. Going to a caribbean theme night at a winery in Bucks County tomorrow night with some friends - really looking forward to that, even tho its all outside - but the heat doesn't bother me nearly as much as it used to (another benefit of losing all that weight).
Like Liz, keeping Nan and her family in my thoughts and prayers - I had tears streaming down my cheeks this morning after I read her post - devastating, just devastating...

Nan and family are certainly forefront on my mind this morning as well. I just read her post and am so saddened by all the horrific events.
Today has me not doing much of anything. I'm wiped from my first night back at work - it was a busy busy shift and I'm just glad to be home unwinding. I'll probably go to bed fairly "early" today as beyond my nap yesterday afternoon, I've been up since yesterday morning and will most likely be up for the better part of tomorrow as I have off the weekend.
That's about it!

Good morning Pa!
Well today has Nan in my thoughts and in my prayers. She is certainly going through so much right now it is truly horrible.
As for today, not much happening. Just relaxing and getting things done around the house. Pretty lackluster day but I'll deal by staying insided with the air conditioner. I'll probally surf the internet and start pulling lesson ideas and themes etc for the school year. 6 more weeks till school is back in session and I am teaching the munchkins again. (I think I have a bit of cabin fever--I can not wait to get back to work!! LOL )
Oh well have a good day everyone and stay cool in this heat!
Much luv!

I am going to super busy this weekend. Tonight im going to a Mani/pedi party at a local spa with 2 girlfriends, Sat is my family reunion and Sunday is my son's 8th birthday party. Im pretty sure im not getting any sleep this weekend.
As for today iam out of work another day finally got results from my blood work doctor says iam anemic so have to up the iron levels says that is proably why iam having the dizzy spells,so iam going to lay low this weekend will miss everybody at Heathers but just not feeling so great to be in the sun all day!have a great weekend everybody
The iron can be constipating - so be on the look out for signs and symptoms of such and take things as needed! Also although I personally have not taken an iron supplement some say that it didn't sit well on the pouch - there are different brands and I'm sure if you ask people will have suggestions on what worked for them if the one you have causes you any sort of problems.
I'm not sure if I will be at Heather's tomorrow or night - I really really REALLY want to go - it depends on how much sleep I get today (which thus far has eluded me) and how I feel. The drive up and the meeting isn't a problem - it's always the car ride home that I get concerned about after being up for so long.....either way - I'll miss ya!

I too have been thinking about Nan. It does make me extra thankful we've found our new extended family on the board.
Tomorrow is my last day of vacaction. I'm excited and nervous about going back and starting my new job.
Today finds me doing laundry and hanging it outside on the new line I forced my family to hang for me......snicker. I'm amazed... I'm almost completely done with my laundry. Working full time and a family of 5 makes it that there is something always lying around to be washed. Usually a lot of things!
It's way too hot to be doing anything else outside. I rush the dogs when they have to go potty outside. I hang my clothes and run back in. Hopefully it will cool off enough tonight for our walk. Might have to go after dark.
Stay cool and hyrdrated and take care of yourselves and loved ones,
