***Terrific Tuesday Roll Call***
Good Morning PA,
Well, my Monday was productive, though to look at my apartment you would wonder what tornado hit it. I cut out two patterns for my grandson...am making him coveralls...started sewing one of them, but need to go to Joann's and get interfacing and snap ribbon. I also organized my plastic bowls, which are growing on their own...I used to have a freezer and cook a lot and freeze a lot, but now, I just have the little one above the fridge. I am thinking of getting another one. I also made my AA meeting, and did some knitting.
Tuesday will have me hitting an AA meeting, oh, I was able to connect with my sponsor on Monday. I called her at work, and we had a chance to catch up. I also must hit Joann's for that stuff I need. I absolutely must get to the gym and get in the pool..my feet are swollen and sore, and I am sore in my sciatica area as well. Not to mention that I got on the scale and it showed some weight gain, which I believe is a combination of too many carbs and water retention. Once I am done running around, I will come home and try to learn how to make button holes on my sewing machine, ...I love learning new stuff like that.
Oh, does anyone know if Steffi is being held overnight? During my running, I will be up that way, and would love to drop in on her and say, "Hey."
I can't sleep right now, because of the sciatica. I am waiting for my muscle relaxer to kick in.
Boy, and I chatty tonight.
Have a great day.
Huggles,
Trish

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.

Yes, she was scheduled for overnight on Monday night into Tuesday
Good Morning!
So Tuesday has a complete change in plans from what I originally thought I would be doing! I thought I was going to the gym in the am, seeing my brother in the afternoon, and going to Steffi's house Tuesday night to "babysit" while Larry was a work.
However, my brother cancelled, Larry will be home, and now I'm seeing Steffi early in the morning after work at Barix instead of at her house!
So...I'm meeting up with Eric who was kind enough to offer to go with me on his day off so I didn't have to drive on no sleep. Personally I think he's just trying to avoid more work on Wednesday at the coroners office lol
Going up to Barix and visiting with the svelt steffi who is looking "oh so fabulous" as per her!
Then most likely going home, although Erin wants to see me too so I just might hang out at the Minnich's house until she gets home after 2pm...
And then my night off with hubby (who I'm gonna try to convince to hang w/ me w/ the minnich's I might add...). Although not all of them are 12 hour shifts, tonight is my last night off till 8/13 so I'm sure he'll want to spend some time with me before I end up drooling on myself at 9pm! Par-tay animal that I am!
Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses. 
Good Morning Trish Pam and PA.
Today I am at work, lots going on here. Mostly good. I have clients this evening one of whom is one week away from being a brady baby. I am excited for her. Did not do much last night was too tired from the NC trek. Today will lay low until I have to see my clients and then will hang with jason. I hope you all have a great day

Good Morning Trish & PA:
Back into the office today. Was tough getting up when it was still dark out.
I went back to sleep this morning and am now officially late leaving for work. I still have to pack my breakfast and lunch for today. Oh well better late than never.....
Yesterday was a nice day of working at home. I got so much don. I was talking to the AVP of my department and telling her how tired I had become after the upper gi. She told me not to worry about work, go take a nap, everything in the office was quiet. So I took a nap for the afternoon.
Working from home for the last 3 days was nice, but I miss the interaction of people. Don't think I could do that full time.
After work I'm planning to meet an old girlfriend in NJ for dinner. We have not seen each other since the late 80's early 90's. I can't wait to catch up!'
Gene is working late - clients today and tonight.
Hope everyone has a great day!!!

Morning Trish and PA...
back to work.. YAAAWWWWNNNNN .. started at 5 again.. back to the OT.. gotta get some $$$ in these pockets...bills to pay bills to pay. UGH
After work, I will be making chicken meatballs and some sort of veggie for dinner.
Tonight, I will head to the gym for Body Pump and Pilates.
At some point during the day today, I am going to call my PCP to see if I can get in about my shoulder pain. I think it's also time to start complaining.. or continue complaining about soreness, sweatiness, and other things that may help me get a breast lift. My belly isn't too bad.. probably because I still have weight to lose there, but my breasts have really been bothering me. I guess seeing Steffi get her approval has lit a fire under my ass to start my own process. It doesn't do me any good to complain to you guys since that is not going to get me approval. It's time to bring out the big guns so I can get my guns under control... LOL.. Yes, jealously of perky breasts is starting to rear it's ugly head.
The only other thing on today's agenda is to finish sorting through the stuff in Siehara's room and get to the post office to send her glasses to her. She doesn't NEED them to see, but they help with reading and such. I got a letter from her yesterday and she is having a fabulous time and wants to go all summer next year!!! I'm so happy she is having fun!

I'm doing ok... I miss her, but am so glad that she is enjoying herself.
She is taking sewing as one of her activities. That will help her so much with doing her fashion design stuff!!
The first 2 weeks have flown by since I've been so busy. This next 2 will probably take forever. BUT, I feel very accomplished with what I have done in her room and I am much more relaxed and decompressed. Things are definitely going to be different when she comes home. I am going to handle things much differently and I hope she has gained independence while she's been there. I'm pretty sure she has based on her letters.

Glad to see you chatty, Trish - means you're feeling somewhat better? If you get in to see Steffi please pass my well wishes along. Thanks.
As for me I'm in a 'menopausal mood' this morning - and if this doesn't break soon I'm going to have to break down and ask the doc for some meds. This weekend after some adult beverages I let loose about my job and how unsatisfying its become - I guess so much so that it scared the hell out of my husband and we had a 'talk' Sunday night because he was afraid I was going to up and quit my job. No, I won't do that, but I guess I just needed to vent. Other things are happening in my personal life as well that just have me on the verge of tears half the time and that is so not me. This morning on the way to work (after a very MOODY start to the day) he asked if I had bad dreams last night, which I did, because he said I was very restless and moaning and groaning a lot in my sleep - trying to talk or something. Hmmm...so yeah, if this keeps up I have to talk to the doc - lack of sleep is really starting to get to me as well.
So sorry for that happy, perky morning note! Its just the mood I'm in today...hopefully it will get better as the day progresses.
