Good Morning. Stuck in meetings...

..for the next couple of days at least. That means no walks, no snacks, very few breaks...generally speaking, UGH!  Must have my fluids and take my calcium though. Might have to get creative in the way I accomplish that small feat without attracting a lot of attention.  I take 4 doses of calcium and an iron batch during the work day.

Yeah, those are hard days.  But having a plan is what it is all about and you are mostly there.  Figure when the breaks will be and plan to have the stuff you need with you.  You can do it.

I have my PCP annual visit today.  I remember dreading going to the Dr and being yelled at about my weight.  Now it is kind of fun to go show off.  Other than that, I may get to the gym and get some paperwork caught up.  It is suppose to be a beautiful warm day.

I intensely dislike Meeting days. They exhaust me. Good luck, Gina.

Still working on homework here, nothing new or unusual...

 I peeked at my schedule for today when I went in for my meeting.  Looks like a medium day.  No meetings, yeah, not too many patients, yeah, and I am caught up on admin.  I take my calcium through the day too.  I gave up trying to be discreet.  I have a bottle sitting on my desk and my cell phone set for 10 and 2.  If my coworkers see that I am with a patient they help remind me.  Same with the water!  If I'm not doing anything and I don't have a water bottle in my hand, they ask where it is!  I love my peeps!

I'm working from home - have to go to Bethesda tomorrow - ugh - traffic...

I have the BA Calcium lozenges.  I have them in a plastic bag on my desk and pop 1 in my mouth every now and then.  I either let them dissolve or chew them and they look like a big mint. 
I was going to go for a walk around the neighborhood yesterday but didn't get out.  It still gets dark earlier here than at home without the time change.... oh wait- this IS home now - lol.

My son asked "when can I move home".  I said "whenever you want - I've got a big house" - he goes NOT VIRGINIA - I mean MICHIGAN.  I said - well son, that's totally up to you and whomever you want to live with.  Guess he expects me to move back to MI so he can move in with me - LOL - NOT!!

 I'm taking my daughter for a hypnotherapy session today. I got up early to go to water aerobics but I thought class was at 8:15, not 9:15 so I did laps instead. Yesterday I did the treadmill and every three minutes I ramped it up to jogging for 45 seconds. Never did that before!

Easy work week for me since many of my clients are on spring break 

Make it a good one everyone.

Hope your meetings go good Gina.  I have got to where I hate meetings.  March and June are months that we have less meetings.  April we will have 5 different board meetings.  Atleast ours are on a quarterly schedule so they are easy to work around.  We very rarely have any called meetings.

I use the calcium chews and just have them on my desk in a small baggy or if in a meeting, put them in my pocket and take them when I need to.  Most people think they are some kind of candy.

I still need to key the budget and key receipts today - procrastinated yesterday!!  Tomorrow I have to travel 1/2 day, then doctors appointment in the afternoon and then we are having a spelling bee tomorrow night at the library.  Sometime in between now and Friday morning (5:30am) I need to wash clothes and get packed for our trip!!  I'm so excited!!

I am so tired of the gigantic horse calcium citrate pills. Don't have any issue with them other than I am sick of swallowing them all day long. Looks like several of you use calcium chews or lozenges. What kind do you use and what flavor? Do they taste like a mint or candy?

I use capsules and they aren't near as annoying as pills.
