OMG, Daisy. I would have laughed too. In my case it would have been like mother, like daughter! I hope Amy feels better soon. I know how much reflux can suck! Nikolai is on apoquel too! It is a Miracle drug!!

Morning AV. Man oh man, was that weekend long! It was really a work up to our party Yesterday. I have too much going on at work right now to try to get into lots of detail.

QOTD: I think I'd pick the same clothes for a week. The only thing that would really bother me too much is the underwear, as I can make sure that I stay relatively clean if I'm actually choosing this in advance.

yesterday was my 11 month surgiversary

Plan for today:

B: 2 egg, 2 bacon, velveeta and coffee with cream and splenda

L: 3.5oz of roast beef, 1 slice reduced fat provolone, horseradish mayo on 35 calorie bread (hello George Foreman grill in the lunchroom).

D: boneless chicken breast with 1/2c of the cauliflower potato salad I made for the BBQ yesterday. this stuff is sooo yummy.

S: Light and Fit greek Key Lime flavor.

Totals:

calories 778, Protein 78, carbs 40 fat 39

Work is a major clusterfuck right now and I'm trying to hang in there. I texted my hubby telling him if things go south there is a good chance I'm walking. I'd like to extend it as much as I can, but I'm literally on the verge of a nasty panic attack because of work related **** and I just can't anymore. I'm typing this on my work PC, so there is a chance that IT could see, but I just don't care anymore. I've come to the point where enough is enough and my mental health is worth way more to me than this job. Hubby just texted back and I have the green light to do whatever I need to. I don't want to completely screw my co-workers, but I think that this will be my last week, and i need to take Thursday and Friday off because I have no sitter.

Sometimes you have to do what you have to do. My oldest moved to Minneapolis with his girlfriend. He had no job set up and the only thing he could find was customer retention agent at a satellite provider. He absolutely hates talking on the phone,even to people he knows and likes so his job was terrible for him mentally. He started having panic attacks and finally just quit. He was afraid his dad and I would be upset but we told him as I'm telling you--your health is way more important than this paycheck. There are other jobs waiting for you out there that are a better fit. He pretty quickly found a job he loves working as a teller for US Bank. You'll find something else too!
