I have! LOL. And then there's the famous Friends episode when Ross doesn't do the poses correctly!

Have you seen the video of the girl who had a crying meltdown right after her spray tan? The streaks on her face!!

My dad gets very snappy when he's getting an infection. That said, a good bit of that may be envy...
I love the look of a spray tan, but I find it so stressful ~ did I put enough block on my fingernails, is my hair tucked up correctly , am I going to do the poses right? Maybe if I did it more often... Of course if you move to Florida, you won't need one much :)
124.6, up like I thought.
Busy beauty day today, tomorrow is a spray tan.
Grilled the kabobs DC1 picked up for dinner tonight. They were pretty good. Nice weather day today (high of low 80's). Fargo was supposed to get up to 95 today which is insane. Back down to 50 for the wedding on Friday.
I agree with the ladies, Ron's comment was probably more about him, especially since you were offering your too big clothes to him. I too want to wear clothes that fit me now and I tend to go for the more fitted cuts as well. Might as well show off all that hard work!

Coming quick! Just look at the gathering as a tribute to you that so many people will miss you. I was also more comfortable with the department thing when I left.

Greetings all
Another sunny day here. But no lizarding. Too cold for that but great for us polar bears. I made eggs and completed a chore that DH had been bugging me to do - changing the phone with the insurance supplement company so they can text me. Whatever. I did my walking at the gym, picked up payroll and went on to the studio. Staff is always glad to see me on payday. I noticed a person from years ago is back at the studio. Not thrilled. He was someone always trying to tell us how to run the business because he thinks we are a bunch of stupid old ladies. Crap. Wish he would go away. After that I went to the grocery for a few items. Broccoli and I -don't-know -what tonight. Impulse purchase of ricotta cheese for that baked thing.
Liz that side table looks great. Ocean D is right - looks like it was how it was meant to be. Take a lazy day. You deserve it.
So big school send off DD! Well enjoy whatever it is which I know you will do graciously. Two Mondays left! Whoo hoo that should be a song title. And enjoy the warmth.
So close Peps! The day will arrive. I agree that Ron's comments were maybe self directed. Worthy of being blown off. How many Mondays do you have? Yeah making a paper list is best. DD is right that the act of writing something down puts it into your brain better. No doubt there are cognition studies on that that you teachers know about. A written list helps me remember that there is a list.
Not much else. I did get a few square inches of desk cleared off yesterday so I am feeling accomplished

It took me a long time to get the same benefit of recall when taking notes by typing vs writing. When I first tried to go to electronic note taking at work I actually did hand write it on my iPad.

Liz, I think it says something really nice about your DH that he maintains a long-term friendship with someone who is a funny duck. He is a very loyal person.
I think staying where it's warm is very sensible. Its been unusually warm here and delightful. Yesterday was 91, today 87. But Thursday it will be 60, and in the 50s by the weekend! It appears it will be cold and damp in Boston for days on end. While I'm very grateful for the early, long stretch of warm weather, but it makes it almost more painful to go back to cold temps and jackets.
I thought my department was planning a happy hour for a retirement celebration with me, but it now seems like it's school wide. I wasn't planning on that, but I've decided to relax, and accept whatever it is they want to do, its a gift they're offering.
We wrapped up our weekend having dinner with friends. The host made the most incredible salmon so for once I met my protein goal with no problem. :)
The next Mondays I will not be at school. Yeah! That leaves only two more Mondays in my career!!!
Writing lists my hand works best for me too. Lots happening on a neurological level when producing handwriting that helps us organize, and recall information. It always feels more grounding to me. I do however LOVE Google calendar because I can access it from computer, phone and tablet.
