** Magnificent Monday Roll Call **

I actually have no idea if today will be magnificent, however, like many of you, I am choosing to make it so!  So - it turns out that when you have a VERY sore throat, sleep tll noon, take a nap at about 4:30ish, then eat dinner and fall asleep again at 8:30 - you are awake at 2:30 AM!  Hmmm...who knew?!?!  

We are still down the shore - headed home later this morning.  I have a doctor's appt to get drained and checked at 2 this afternoon, then I have no further plans.  Well, in my head I have a ton of plans, but I am sure that I will be too tired to do any of them.  I am getting excited to go back to work on Wednesday.  I know I have a ton of work to do in my classroom as I was only in there for an hour last week.  Not usually how I do things - I am usually all set up by now but I just haven't had the energy.  Oh well, worst case scenario - I will call in some former students or wait til my current students start ad have them help me set it up...that is why I like middle schoolers - you can put them to work! :)

What does your Magnificent Monday look like?

Hi PA,

Today is my short work day.  It is also the day before pay day which is encouraging when you get paid only once a month.  Still no word yet on the CNA class.  It gets frustrating, this waiting.

Have a good one all!

Good morning PA & Steffi,

Very glad you've been having a good time at the shore and it's been somewhat restful.

Today is work till 5.  I will hit the gym tonight since I didn't go this morning.  I have my 1 month check up appt this afternoon too.  I stepped on the scale this morning and I hope I have finally gone past that one month stall that I posted about earlier.  I've lost two pounds since last Monday.  Hopefully it will continue to go down. 

My son, his wife and daughter stopped in last night.  They've been in Japan for two months. Just can't get over how much the baby (she's almost 16 mos) has changed in just those 2 months.  I'm glad they're long trip home has finally ended for them.  But at the same time we were looking forward to taking a vacation to Japan sometime within the next three years.  Oh well.  Having them in Norfolk will be just as good.  We love going to VA Beach.  Especially in the off season.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day.  Stay cool.

Good monring everyone.  Today's IS going to be magnificent.  My boss is back from vacation so for me, hopefully the new CEO who started last week will start bothering him with questions and requests and I can get back to the work that actually matters. 

I saw friends in Hersheyy yesterday who I haven't seen since before my surgery.  it was a boost to get all the "OMG, I can't believe how good you're looking" remarks.  Had me up early this morning to get a little extra cardio before work.

I'm taking a road trip to western PA for the holiday weekend to see another friend.  (I probaby should space these out a little more, LOL).

Good Morning All.

Today is my first full day back to work and I am already exhausted. It is going to be an interesting day. I don't normally do caffeine but I might have to take a trip out at lunchtime for some! UGh! After work off to my Mom's to pick up Amelia and probaly stay for dinner. That's all for us. Can't wait to snuggle my baby.

Have a great day all

Good luck today Liz!  I am thinking of you today : )

Thanks :)

Good luck today, liz!

How about popping a sublinqual B-12 if you're feeling down?  or an acai energy drink?  Just a thought.

And remember - you're wearing your asbestos spanx, right?  Give em hell, girl!

I sure hope it's going to be a magnificent Monday.. I'm kind of tired this morning after this weekend, but I'm choosing to wake my butt up and get going on a positive note. 

I'm also going to choose to start the 5 day pouch test today.  I went to the Drive In with Siehara Saturday night and feel like I ate everything in sight.  In reality, between the 2 of us, we ate about 1/2 a bag of that Herr's popcorn stuff that is sooo good.  I also ate some Beef Jerky and a protein bar and drank about 20 oz of decaf.  This was all over 4 hours.. I was SO not hungry.. damn demons.  My food has really been out of control and I'm taking back control TODAY.

Today has me working til 3:30.  After work, we may be going to a birthday party for a friend's son.  She had to see if she could get in at the last minute or not.  If we don't go there, I will go to the gym tonight for Pilates and possibly Body Pump.  I need the Pilates because my shoulder/upper back is really bugging me today.  I must have slept on it wrong. 

Hope everyone has a good day today! I'm choosing to.

Good Morning Steffi,
I did not accomplish much yesterday because I fell asleep on the couch...bad because I missed the Phillies game and did not meet any goals. 

Today is more cleaning and organizing, and also crocheting more bibs. 

I am also doing battle with some ants that like my bathroom and kitchen.  I have some of those traps that have the poison in them, but they seem useless at this point.  May need to get some more.

Have a great day.

Hugs,
Trish
