Well...it's monday again and I am already so tired of all the rain we are getting but we sure do need it so I will not complain much about it. PRAYERS needed for my middle son as he is home from Teen Challenge with Mono. He only left his room yesterday to go to the bathroom and is barely talking because of the pain in his throat. I kept pushing water at him all day long. I think I may have gotten 32 oz down him. UGH Too bad that there is really nothing they can give you to get you over mono sooner. He really isn't ready to be home yet. Hope I don't have problems with this when he gets to feeling better because they don't want him back till he is over it. Streeful on me !!! I feel like a jailer monitoring him. LOL Nothing on the agenda today but playing nurse to him. Everyone drive safely since I am sure we have slick roads out there. Prayers for everyone in need. Have a blessed and safe day.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

My weekend went well - I didn't do too much....nothing unusual there.....
UGHGGG.......raining = cable problems at home.........brother not happy camper !!! OH WELL !!
Viv: Sorry about your stressful times............I just hope that he doesn't use this time at "home" to decide NOT to complete the program after he was just doing sooooooooo well - I do know though that when you feel crappy - your "decisions" are crappily based !! :) Hopefully when he gets to feeling better - he'll WANT to go back and complete the progam...........OH - I just couldn't imagine having to worry about what if, and what if and what ifs...................yikes !!

Not much on my agenda this week - my team leader - immediate "report" aka - boss is here this week in our office from our Houston office - it is her normal Monthly visit for this half of her team !! lol I can't wait for our operations team re-structure to take effect and/or just happen so that we "know" what is going on..........the pins and needle are feeling sharp - I don't know why I'm worried because I've been told that they are NOT touching my desk.....so hopefully it will not affect my position - but still - those around me will be moved around and/or get booted out the door......so just a really uneasy feeling until it happens.....
Other things happening in the office too......moral is NOT up right now....which at this time of year (PMP time) it normally isn't anyway !!
My "better" choices for 2012 are going well - how are your going?
I'm down about 12 lbs just by NOT grazing so much through the day and NOT eating when I go to bed.........

Good morning, KARLA and all! Jumping onboard quickly, while work conference all is already in full swing (have my phone on mute, while multi-tasking here)...
Love the rain, and know it is needed, but sure played hell in the traffic this morning. I hydroplaned across 2 lanes, on I-30, while a big truck hyroplaned across another 2 lanes, in front of me-we looked like synchronized swimmers. Luckily, no accidents resulted, but it was a bit scary there, for what seemed like FOREVER. Little car VS big truck = big scare for little red car driver. Y'll may recall I got side swiped by a big truck, several months back, and I'm still pretty gun shy (big truck shy??)..But I'm at work, all in one piece...drawers are dry/clean..all is well...
Our work state/federal recertification-licensure "inspection" continues thru today and tomorrow...good times...NOT..I probably wouldn't be here today, if not for our "visitors"-I've got KARLA's sinus crud, and she's right-it's BRUTAL stuff!!...
Hope everyone has a peaceful day, after our stormy start!

I left early to go to the oral surgeon. I have to get a CT scan of my mouth because the dentist wants to put in posts for my 2 new teeth but I have a small mouth (no comments there) and he needs to see exactly where the nerves are. HAve a great night everyone!
Did some laundry and other cleaning today. Eating has (again) gone of the back burner - I have to get this in control as it has a lot to do w/ why I am not able to lose anymore weight.
That said - come on 1/19 - ready to be back in class!
