Good morning!  How was your Wednesday?  Anything special on the books for your Thursday?

My Wednesday went better than expected.  Work was nice and I got home at normal time.  Steve cooked dinner on the grill and we had family time and watched some DVD's.  After that I got in a little computer time and got caught up on the laundry, as best as I could.  Going to bed early was not in the plans...but I am happy anyway.

As for Thursday...I have two meetings right after work...one I am really looking forward to.  I need the time out/away from the daily grind of home life!  Once I get home I have two more loads of laundry (just bed clothes and one load of jeans) and I have a few items I need to tend to on the computer when I get home then I will be settling in to bed as early as possible.

Many prayers still going up and out for those that need them.

Have a blessed day!~~~Only one day left till the weekend!

Morning Beautiful!  Glad to hear your day went well!  Mine was good too.  Work went well, then it was home.  Due to a teacher work day today we got the girlies last night so we had a nice family night.  I needed some me time so I went into the bedroom to chill, ended up falling asleep at 8:45.  It was nice and I feel good this a.m.

Nothing planned for today, hubby will take the girls to soccer and then they will go back to their mom's.  I will probably end up with an evening to myself.  Thinking a trip to the library is in order as I am out of books to read.  Will try to get to bed early again as I have a job interview tomorrow at work for a higher position.  Wish me luck.  Have a great day!!!

Good morning, beautiful!  Glad you had a good day yesterday...falling asleep early can be a blessing!  I am so excited for you about tomorrow!  I will be saying extra prayers.  Let me know how things go.  Hope you can get into the bed early and get some rest...the fresher you feel for an interview the happier you look!  Have a fabulous day!

Oohhh...FIOS...I am going to be getting that soon.  I am spending part of my tax refund to get it!  I can't wait.  I hear fabulous things about it.  Now come on...did you have to talk to her teachers to know how great she is?  I knew that from the moment I met her!  She is so sweet and smart...she is beautiful all around and is lucky to have you as a mom...you are the one that molded her!  Take pride in the way you have raised her!

Hey all - and especially Tammy! I'm trying to stay focused today, but am having difficulty. My day yesterday was rocky, especially with difficulties with my son. The power struggles are endless these days and it's hard not to get caught up in it.

I ate well for most of the day, then found myself in Kroger buying crap food alongside the salad fixings and yogurt that I went in there to get.  I had a few bites of a few things and threw the rest away - none of it was any good and I was sorry (again) that I got it. I felt lonely sitting there in my car, eating from the grocery bag and hoping nobody that I knew would walk by. It reminded me too much of days gone by... and in the end, I didn't feel that great and had wasted some money.

But today is another start and I'm back to an hour at a time. I appreciate everyone's thoughts and support from my checking in post yesterday. My son is due home in a little while and that's when the daily challenge will begin again, so I hope I can stay grounded and not spiral downward.

I hope everyone has a good day. Thanks again!

Hi honey!  I am so glad you posted today.  Yes, stay focused!  I have faith in you.  You know how to reach me anytime.  I kind of had a similar moment last night.  I had steak and potato but added a choc chip cookie into the mix and immediately felt guilty.  Life is hard and when outside forces come into our lives and stress up even more then we react as we always have.  It is a life long battle.  Today is a brand new day and we will get thru it together!  Our oldest daughter is 14 and having the same daily challenges.  At least I have found her trigger...taking away the cell phone and her stereo and i pod!  That whips her back into shape really fast!  I will talk to you soon!  Love you much!

I came home early from work yesterday with the sick bug. Many of the kids at school have been out with a headache, fever and vomiting and I caught it.

My household was rudely awakened to a very loud horn type noise at 4:15. We couldn't figure out where it was coming from even after checking all over. Yup..at 5AM it happened again..still a mystery until 8:20 AM when it kept happening. Now that my hearing is totally shot and my heart has jumped from my chest, I found it is a hard wired Smoke alarm--the only hard wired one in the house. So it's been going off 2-3 times an hour, thus me being awake and not resting like I'd wish to be. Leo better get home soon!

hugs

Sorry you are under the weather.  Yep, I know it has been going around a lot.  Steve has been feeling "off" but nothing full force yet.  I am just waiting!  I pray you will be feeling 100% soon.  I also pray Leo gets home soon and gets that smoke alarm fixed!  I imagine it is annoying!  Take some tylenol PM and try and ignore it!
