What's on Your (photo) Friday Menu, RNYers?
Happy Friday! Very busy morning since I am trying to get everything done ASAP so we can hit the road to LAX and get ready to fly home. I will pop back on later but at least wanted to "check-in".
QOTD: I have no big plans..thank goodness!
Breakfast was a latte, boiled egg, and nut crisp bar. The rest of my day is up in the air at this point-I have some turkey sticks, protein shake and tuna pack in case I need them. Exercise was 35 mins on the elliptical and water and vits are on track.
Hope you all have a great Friday and weekend.
You guys, I am laughing so hard at myself today. You saw the picture of my shoes from yesterday? Well, you can't really tell, but they're platform wedges with like a 5 in heel. Big. Ass. Shoes. I did a lot of walking in them so I got used to them and how you have to sort of stand and walk in a different way in shoes like that. Today I'm wearing flats. Every time I stand up I feel like I'm going to fall over because I'm expecting to be almost 6 feet tall, which I am not. LMAO

Hi everyone, I am not having a good day... Let me join the ranks for those of you who have had a crappy week/day. Yesterday I had an appt booked with a Specialist I have been waiting months for, my appt was at 12noon, at 3pm when I had not been seen I walked over to the secretary and said re-book me I can't wait, this is ridiculous. So its rebooked for June 14th. BUT this was a very important appt and I really needed to see this Specialist and I am just upset that I now have to wait two more weeks, I am sad and annoyed.
Oh but it gets worse, got into work this morning and I get a phone call from my Aunt in Texas, Uncle had a heart attack this morning. This is actually my husbands Aunt & Uncle but over the last 16 years of marriage with hubby I have become so close to the Aunt; her and I are BFFs and the Uncle is like a second Dad to my husband (hubby lost his Dad in 2007). So we are very very close. I got what info I could out of her but she was crying and so hard to understand! I get off the phone with her, call my husband and said what do we do, are we flying out there? Hubby says call her back and tell her we can get a flight out tomorrow evening. I call her back, she says that other family is flying in today to be with her and Uncle so hold off on coming down as she wants us to come when Uncle is out of the hospital and back home recuperating. Bloody Hell, nothing like having your blood pressure go from 0-100 at 7am!!!!!! I was already feeling crappy and now this. I feel helpless sitting here in Toronto and my Uncle is having open heart surgery in Texas!!!!!!!!!! (Grim & JB I know you know what I am talking about!!!!!!!)
I generally don't get anxiety, but I have got anxiety, I have lost my appetite from the stress, so far I have had four coffee's and I am running on adrenaline. I can handle stress fine, but when it comes to my loved ones and people that I care deeply for I get so messed up, the emotions that run through me could light up the Eiffel Tower!!
So no menu to post today, will eat something at some point just don't know what. Does Adrenaline have calories LOL LOL
Please pray for my Uncle gang, thanks for being my "other" family and listening, I love you guys!
AV love your cute shoes and I want those white carpi's!! Have an amazing time with your girlfriends!
Hope you all have a wonderful fun safe and happy long weekend!

So sorry to hear you are having a bad day. You are always so positive, helpful, and supportive to everyone. It sounds like being there with your family later is why your husband's aunt needs, so maybe that is for the best. June 14th will be here before you know it, especially with all this going on with your family. I will be thinking of you. You will get through this.
