** My Magnificent Monday Roll Call **
Morning Steffi! Congrats on 18 years - how freaking awesome!!! Hang in with the recovery - you'll get there, no doubt! I don't deal with setbacks well either, so I can relate to your frustrations however! Up those fluids woman! Fevers dehydrate you without you realizing it.
I decided to play hookie from work last night - it started with the prissy pouch in the morning and the recovery from the incredibly long (and FUN) freaking weekend I had....and then turned into just a "I don't wanna" moment. The basic rule of thumb, though, is, if you call out one night, you call out the next night if it's consecutive. Basically because if you call out consecutive nights in a row, it still only counts as "one" occurrence, so it really doesn't make sense to do it any other way.
That being said...my "sick" self went to the gym today...more on that on the exercise post. Home now eating my post work out meal. Bri just got up....gonna see what he wants to do. Probably will end up finishing the mountains of laundry, cleaning up the house, going shopping for new clothes for him for school, and maybe a movie in the afternoon. Will also be making some chicken cordon bleu for dinner once the food shopping is done.
That's about it from here!

Good morning everyone!!!!
Steffi--Happy anniversary!!have a wonderful day with your hubby and I wish you many more years of happinesss!! Also I hope you are feeling a bit better as you recuperate from your surgery.
As for me....just returned from a few glorious weeks in Florida with my dad and stepmom. It was just what I needed to get my head clear and find my way back to a more centered and balanced state in my heart and in my mind. Things seem a lil bit more manageable right now ....hoping that I can keep this more peaceful state I am in for a while longer!!!
So today has me organizing and puttering around my place...have to start getting things together so I can go into the classroom and set up this week. Also looking at selling some things to and put them up on Craigslist...with everything that happened this summer I really need the cash to recover...so we shall see I haven't had any luck so far with craigslist and I am having trouble figuring out how to set up acct on ebay and paypal...its like another language!! lol I am just trying to do my best....
Going to go put laundry away and drink a protein shake....still working on trying to eat more...
Hope everyone has a Marvelous Monday!!!!
Much luv!!

Congrats on the 18 years Steffi!
Today is my last full day of freedom. I am heading out on the boat with my friends today. I can't believe tomorrow I HAVE to go back to work. My summer was w-a-y to short. Have a great Monday!

Good morning PA & Happy anniversary Steffi!
I am going to try to post more on the roll call. Unfortunately I only check OH at work, and I have been crazy busy for the last 2 weeks. Oh, and I'm kinda boring. I really never have much to report.
Let's see, today work followed by the gym for some cardio and weight training. I am really enjoying going more now that I have added the weights. It breaks up the time so much better.
I am just past 3 months so am now clear for ground beef, so tonight is buffalo blue cheeseburger night. Minus the bun. And pretty small. But still, excited!!
More exciting tomorrow Cyd comes back to work. Not only is she my bestest (and my BFFF- best formerly fat friend) we work together too. It has been soooo boring here without her to bug all day.
Have a great day y'all!

Morning Steffi and Pa,
Hope you feel better soon, and sending encouraging thoughts for your recovery, and cyber (((Hugs))). Spraying the weeds this am. I love my Tn house and can not wait till my stint with the little crumb snatchers in Md. is over, I love them dearly, but I like staying here in Tn too. I have been here a month and am dreading going back. I am so far out in the sticks, that I need to start beating back all the weeds and bushes a little. The cattle across the street have been quiet all morning, wonder whats up with them. This is the last week that the water park is open during the week, so I intend to get myself over there every day this week if possible. Some of the kids started school last week already, and more starting this week. Found a great meat market, it's so fresh, you can hear the cows just being brought in for the final roundup. The steaks are great, and really reasonable. So will pack up some snacks for the park and be on my way. Have a great day everyone. Ida hope everything goes good for you and that you have an
uneventful recovery.
