GOOD MORNING! Esp because I was home from work Thursday and Friday my days are all mixed up. But, according to the calendar its Tuesday, so off we go into another work week-and a short one too! Woo hoo!

SO- I started looking at Halloween stuff yesterday at the store. When do you usually get your decorations out? Starting to think about a costume yet??

ALL ABOARD!

I'm up and moving around and feel alot better. I am glad I didn't push myself and just rested yesterday for the most part. I know today I will be slammed at work. I was out Thursday and Friday and I have a meeting all day. I am watching the last of the House Hunters International that taped yesterday. I have a season pass for that show. I love it. We have seen most of them. Its fascinating to me how other people live around the world.

I decided Sunday that I needed to go back to the doctor because my sinus infection wasn't getting better. My head and ears were hurting so much. I did the Web Check in Sunday evening for them, and they called at 7:45am and I was in the office at 8 and at the pharmacy by 9. I got a steriod shot and a more powerful antibiotic. I just should know by now to ask for a steriod shot when I get a sinus infection because that is usually what ends up happening- 2 visits to get well.

I want to get the fall decorations down this week while bryan is gone just to take inventory. Also pull out some fall clothes to see what I've got that fits. I need some help though- I don't feel comfortable standing on a ladder getting big tubs down. Maybe I can get a neighbor to help. The house is completely clutter free right now so it would be a good time to do this. The walls look fanstatic-Bryan is an incredible painter.

He's in NY this week so its just me and Chris till Friday!

Hope everyone has a great day today!

Good morning!! All is good in my crazy, busy lil corner of the world. No doubt today will be a windstorm, cleaning up messes from the weekend. I think I'll pack some extra vitamins!

My Army nephew had a long talk with my Chris about the military...and now Chris thinks he wants to join...the Air Force....who knows where THAT came from. A guy I graduated hs with is career AF, so we FB'ed some yesterday, and he gave me some great tips, to lead Chris in the right direction. All prayers appreciated, as Chris makes some choices that will direct his whole future. I just want him to explore all his options and take his time-but do SOMETHING!

I must share Corbin (my oldest) 's success. He does not have insurance, so WLS is not an option for him, at this time. He has stuck to a very strict eating plan and had lost 29.5 pounds in 4 weeks. He's only 21 ( a young 21) and works in a Mexican restaurant-you know THAT has to be TOUGH!!! I'm VERY proud of him. Many of you have known him for years and can share in my pride.

Prayers all around-for both spoken and unspoken-God hears and knows them all..

Special shout out to our TRACEY and her lil bun, and to DEBBI and her big bun, who will soon make her debut

Better get hopping-not sure the world is ready to see all this skin unclothed...ewwwww....

I LOVE Y'ALL AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT!!!!

 Gina......Tell Corbin we are sure proud of him.  It is really hard losing weight on your own.   Tell Chris to stay with either the Air Force or the Navy ( 2 safest branches of the military ).    Have a blessed day !!!


Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good Morning Train!

WOOOOHOOOO for Tuesdays and short work weeks!  And for the PITA project that is finally done!  I thought it was going to get the best of me because the stress was unbelieveable!  I took Friday off and did absolutely nothing for 4 days in a row! LOL

Prayers are going up for all that need them!

How about some Eagles to ease us into the work week? It's "Best of My Love", so everyone sing along!


Every night I'm lyin' in bed
Holdin' you close in my dreams
Thinkin' about all the things that we said
And comin' apart at the seams
We try to talk it over
But the words come out to rough
I know you were tryin'
to give me the best of your love

Beautiful faces and loud, empty places
Look at the way that we live
Wastin' our time on cheap talk and wine
Left us so little to give
That same old crowd
Was like a cold dark cloud
That we could never rise above
But here in my heart I give you the best of my love
Oh sweet darlin' you get the best of my love, oh
Sweet darlin', you get the best of my love

I'm goin' back in time
And it's a sweet dream
It was a quiet night
And I would be all right
If i could go on sleepin'
But every mornin'
I wake up and worry
What's gonna happen today
You see it your way
And I see it mine
But we both see it slippin' away

You know we always had each other baby
I guess that wasn't enough
Oh, but here in my heart
I give you the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin'
You get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin'
You get the best of my love
Every night and day,
You get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin' you get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin' you get the best of my love..
[etc.]

Ya'll have a great day my friends!

 Hey Texas Train

I'm not a big decorator for Halloween.  Its not for any reason other than with my medieval group, the whole month of October is a huge eventing and travel month for me.  I'm NEVER home on Halloween weekend.  This year will be no different.  We have an event the last weekend in September in the Houston area and will be traveling someplace in the state every weekend after that until Thanksgiving weekend.  WHEW!  So...no decorations for us.

That being said, Halloween is my favorite holiday so I say any time after Labor Day, get em up!

I suspect after Hermine hit land we'll have rain for the next day...maybe two.  A good reason to stay home and do my best imitation of a mushroom.

Have a great day everyone.
