Thursday WLS Express

Good morning! Lots of news about the AA layoffs. I've been up for too long already this AM- tummy ache. Will try to find something more exciting to watch on tv till its time to get in the shower. Have a great day!

Can I be blunt here?  Layoffs suck!  A lot of people waking up, if they slept at all, asking "Now what?"

Up too early after a long a day yesterday.  Had a "major" disturbance late yesterday afternoon with about 100 folks involved.  The "main event" that lead to six going to jail?  Two HS aged girls bumping their gums and then began fighting.  Needless to say lots o' paperwork to be done.  Be stuck in the office today any way since we are doing oral board interviews trying to higher a new officer. 

 Morning Alissa and TMB Family,

I too have been up too long.   I hit the floor at 5 AM today.   I have been doing my posts....drinking coffee and doing laundry.    I have SO much housework to do it is NOT funny.    I don't think i've done very much cleaning in several weeks due to my middle son being in my home and being sick.   Please keep him in your prayers as he adjusts to the "new" Teen Challenge and not being able to see me ( mostly his GF though LOL ).    I can't afford to drive 300 miles each week for a church service.   I did talk to the director where he is yesterday to see if it would be OK for me to ship the guys there cookies about once a week.   He said YES that they would LOVE that.    I knew that they would.   He said that Shawn is missing us but adjusting well.    I am happy for that.    SO I will make double the cookies I usually do....gotta take cookies to "my sons" at the TC in Azle next tuesday night and I will get a big box of cookies off to SA on monday.    It's tough being Mom to so many guys....but SOMEONE has to do it.   LOL  Have a blessed day and enjoy our mild weather.....yesterday was AMAZING !!!!!   Prayers for Norma.....i am sure today and tomorrow will be difficult for her family as they say goodbye to her Momma.     Prayers for everyone else in need too.  

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good Morning !! 

Its gonna be a long day for me..........but its gonna be good
pre-op appt today at 115pm - so I'm taking 1/2 day vacation - i leave the office at 12noon.
With that having been said - I'm swamped at work doing special projects in every spare moment I can find (by the mins or hr)  behind in my duties and so I tossed and turned last night all night -  gave up at 4am - got up and came into the office at 5am.  I shocked a few people !! but I have 40 min left to make it count....and here I am..........checking in - but I have utilized these 3 extra hours and got some much needed things accomplished........I gotta becare though - can get into trouble for showing up early and working.......... 

Not much else on the agenda..........what happened to the gas prices...one day their $$ and then next $$$$  +++++  WOW !!   Give me a break !!  
 
I joined WW last night online - but gonna do meetings too 1x a week  - I get 36 points a day...we'll see how that plays out - now I just gotta incorporate some EXCERCISE  in there .  I wanna but I'm just miserable and trying to do anything...I hate that feeling...    I may start to go swimming 2x a week at the senior place here in Irving - indoor pool  - open from 1-7pm.  work or no work - they are open to 7pm so I can go even if I do work on sat and sunday............any movement is better than none -  right??  

Ya'all have a good day !!  

Good morning,

I hate hearing about the layoffs at AA.  DH was laid off a couple of years ago and out of work for over a year. It not easy finding a job these days and harder when you are over 50. 

Nothing exciting going in my world today.  Have a lot on my to do list at work so hoping I can get some of those crossed off.  Need to pick up the clothes at the cleaners hoping I don't forget.  Still working on packing will probably be up all night Saturday trying to finish. 

Prayers for Viv and Norma.

Have a great day!
