Monday Go for Broke WLS Express
Today is Go for Broke day-
Are you a gambler? Then, today, is your day. It's Go For Broke Day. Today is a day to put it all on the line, and take a chance. It might be money. Or, it can be a love relationship. Perhaps, it's time to initiate a risky project, or to take a new job.
Many of us go about our daily lives playing it safe, not taking big chances. If you are of a conservative ilk, you may have never gone out on a limb, or taken big risks. If this sounds like you, maybe today is a day to really let loose and "Go for Broke".
So, if you could "go for broke" and do something daring that you might not do otherwise, what would it be??
ALL ABOARD the daring express!

Good morning! I didn't sleep well so I'm tired this morning. I've got my zipfizz and trying to wake. We had a great time with my sister and her family yesterday. We all went to church and then to Johnny Carinos. We started this tradition a few years ago and its not crowded and we all love their food.
If I were to go for broke- well, I'd probably quit my job and become a party/wedding planner- if I had no fear and had the means. I love doing this sort of thing and I'm good at it. I've just never been able to make it a career. Its not conducive for having a family either. Maybe one day.
Prayers continue for Eric, Michelle's mom, and all those in need. Take care and I hope everyone has a great day!

Good morning! What a wonderful weekend it was! I chose not to work at all-will be sorry, money wise, but had some much needed hubby/family of choice/blood family/God time, and feel rejuvenated...
If I could go for broke, I'd chuck it all and move to to the beach....to Galveston...and sell seas shells, live bait and tacky tee shirts...
Busy, busy day ahead..have to "close out" March in my Medicare world at work-will take several hours...but first, I have to go to "Fit 30" boot camp, where my Nazi nephew is gonna work my ass off..literally..my right knee "went out" last week, and hasn't quite "gone back in" yet, so we'll have to work around it...hacks me off!
Prayers all around-spoken and unspoken....

Good Morning Train!
WOOOOHOOO for Monday! I've already gone for broke today, thank you very much... LOL At least that's what it felt like I was doing while I had that COP on my tail this morning. I know my heart was running away with me, but I had my cruise control on and I knew I wasn't going too fast.... I was turning blue holding my breath by the time he finally backed off and eventually turned around... whewwwwww..... LOL
Prayers are going up for all that need them!
Here's Guns & Roses' Sweet Child O' Mine to get us started this morning!
She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that
special place
And if I stared too long
I'd probably break down and cry
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me
of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Sweet child o' mine
Ya'll have a great day my friends!

Good morning.
If I was going to Go For Broke, I'd retire next year when I could and get a new career to last another 15-20 years and not deal with school-related issues.
I have a lot of folders to work on today and get turned in at work. Ben will be leaving in a few minutes to go back to Aggieland. Hopefully nothing after work...might work on Ben's quilt a little.
Prayers for all who need them, especially Bard on his surgery in Mexico today.
Have a great Monday!

If I could afford to "go for broke" I'd retire and stay home with the grandbabies. We'd go to gymnastics and dance lessons and play in the park. We'd bake cookies and read books. Once a week I'd put them in daycare and go do something for me.
Of course, I'd have to win the lottery to be able to do this!
I'm off again today. I'm going to my mom's this afternoon to see my cousin who was like a sister to me for so many years. I may "go for broke" and call an old friend to see if he wants to come over to see my cousin as well.
This four-day weekend has been restful but extremely boring, as I have hardly seen the babies at all (their other grandparents have been in town).

Well if I had the option I would do two things. One I would go back to working with kids. That's where my passion and love is and I've gotten so far away from it I fear I won't ever get back. The second thing is I would stay home with our baby and not work or work very little. Unfortunately neither is in the cards right now, but I'm hopeful sometime in the future it will be.
We had a great weekend and got lots of stuff done. My car is in the shop with the electrical specialist to figure out what's wrong. Unfortunately when I brought it in, the guy told me he'd seen LOTS of PT Cruisers come in for electrical problems. Of COURSE he has!! Sigh. Oh well, I bought the car not knowing anything about them, lesson learned. Research first, then buy. Hopefully whatever is wrong will either be very cheap or covered under my extended warranty.
We are now living in a box maze at our apartment. We broke down most of our collapsible shelves this weekend and have packed up pretty much everything we won't need in the next two weeks. Next weekend and week is going to be the final push, then we get to move. WOOOHOOO!
I got a chance to talk to my boss about working after the baby and I'm so happy that she's going to be super flexible with my schedule. I'm hoping to not have to worry about any kind of child care for at least the first 5-6 months, and I think with working at home and being able to work when I need to I'll be able to swing it. That is a huge weight off my mind.
Ok, off to do more work. Hope everyone has a fantastic day!

Hey You Guys!
Go for broke....hmm... I guess I am pretty much doing what I love to do. I could deal with it better if i didn't have so much paperwork and could see my speech kids more. So- I'm thinking that if I were truly to just do something crazy, I guess I would be an actress. I always loved acting in high school. I would also travel like crazy. I want to go to Alaska, Italy, Hawaii, and Australia. Other than that, I think I am where I want to be.
I had a great time this weekend. We spent time with family, got the house clean and did some stuff around the yard.
Darbie (our horse) somehow cut her leg pretty bad. Of coarse it's trying to get infected. I went to the feed store and bought some ferasol ointment to put on it topically, a vile for tetanus, and a bottle of penicillan. I am deathly allergic to penicillan so Dirk won't even let me draw it up for her. We are going to give her a few days and see if she responds to the medicines before she goes to the vet. I don't really think she needs stitches so they aren't going to do anything that we aren't already doing. It's still sad to see her limp a little bit.
I gotta get back to work. I have files all over my desk that aren't going anywhere! ugh!
Love you guys!
