The Loopy-O
CHEERY O
Mood swing alert!! Mood swing alert!! :eek2:

Nothing like a Monday Morning after a long weekend to bring them on in a menopausal/semi-crazy Faery.

;)

What a freaking week it was. I cannot believe that it was literally a week ago that I was so hopeful about Gary's good dr visit, and Scott's report card, and then to hit bottom and then slowly coming back out of it. Throw in some family/Thanksgiving/upcoming Christmas and watch out!!! :boom:

I have to keep repeating to myself "baby steps" and "it is what it is" -- my 2 mantras. One day at a time and all that...... Hopefully this week will be "normal" (whatever the HECK that is!) and I can get some solid footing. Or at the very least--the illusion of solid footing.

Just in the span of writing this, I think I have felt gratitude, anxiety, melancholy and a bit of hope. Is there any wonder why I feel a bit nauseous??? :yield:

LOL


But it is Mionday and Sally would advice me that it is a new week and a new beginning. So I hope to buckle down, get my To-Do list written, and run with it. My dad is coming up today to help me with the rest of the leaves, and I will be bundled up, but soaking in some sun.


me Me Monday:
I am going to try and focus on breathing..... Keeping steady. :)

What about you?
 
Coffee will make it better.... :tea:
So I am now sitting her with another cup and that is good good good!!


Oh, looks liek I am pretty caught up with everyone fromthe weekend, except for Trudy.

Thinking of you and your family hon..... ((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))

Linda S- you are a cooking machine! All sounds yummy!!!

Laurie-- enjoy your day off!

Phyllis- hope you got back to sleep a bit.


xoxoxo!!!
 
Go Chris Go- it is me me monday- and you are going to babystep your way right through the week. I just finished my workout- off to the scales to see if they have budged from 2 pounds up and if not- I will babystep my way back down- especially after I buy the groceries on my list!
 
Morning ladies! The start of a new week and I am also hoping that I can babystep my way through it LOL. I have to get Christmas Cards and my letter done this week. Two more months to finish on the Calendars, photo book to get done for MG and still lots of prezzies to buy online. But like Chris, I am deep breathing and just going to check one thing at a time off my list. Whew!

Chris - You are hoping for a normal week? Just what the Heck is normal?? Seems like life just throws a wrench into every single week anyway, so I am not sure what normal is anymore?? Hope you get everything done on your list!! Just Breathe!! and I will join you for another cuppa :tea:

Laurie - I bet your 2 lbs are gone!! You are the workout Queen!! Enjoy your extra day off!! Have fun shopping!

:wave: to everyone else that pops in today! I am off to the shower and get this day started, I have a feeling its going to be a crazy one at work today!! :wave:
 
hiya. Chris, i had to take a Dramamine after reading your journey of last week!! :puke: hope everything will go better this week. baby steps is the only way to approach things. the Big Picture View will get you down every time. here's something for you, sweetie: Blessings

Laurie, good luck on losing the 2 pounds. i have 40 i have to leave behind somewhere....

i think we're getting some snow tonight, too, Chris. i hope it isn't much. in the meantime, i have to hit the grocery store and the post office. i'm mailing out all my Christmas cards and Christmas Mixed Bag 2012 music cds today. then just a few more things to send out to various family members and I'M DONE!! well, except for emptying out my entire closet so that i can get at the door to the cubby hole so that i can take out some Christmas decos.

hope your Monday is a good one, O-zies. hope mine is, too.

Just Breathe and Drink Coffee...My Monday mantra!! Love it!!!! I may have to make a mini poster for us today!!!

Yep, it's true...I am loving today! Actually, we (Mr Gorgeous and I) are getting ready to hit December hard with a challenge, weight and otherwise. I've got my planner all created...just need to print it out! Super excited about how our lives are going to change for the better!! So, I'm thankful today that I'm still in the planning stage (sorta...I'm going to try to get back onto that elliptical today...eeek! Pray that I actually get on it. I hate exercise with a passion, and it's really starting to show now!!!!!)

Blessings to all of you!!! Remember, 'Tis the season to be jolly!! Hohohohoho!!!
love you all!
 
So tired. This gray dark weather is terrible. Well, we've gotten a little bit of white dust on the ground today, hope it will stay - at least the world looks brighter. Sweden has been covered with a huge gray cloud for a month now :(

I've just ironed 9 shirts for DH - he better be happy when he gets home LOL

Oh - and I flew over to the states after that - managed to shap this photo of Chris:

good morning! was a fun four days of Thanksgiving! Thursday we were invited to friends as we have no family around and that was fun and yummy! Thursday, Friday and Saturday we cleaned and cooked and cleaned and cooked and my DH made many trips to the store. We invited many of my DH's grad students to dinner Sunday as they did not have relatives. We had 17 people! It was fun but so tiring by the end of the weekend. Glad I can now get back to scrapping!

Chris hope this week is much better! Everyone enjoy a Me Monday!
 
Good evening all. Sitting at Shaun's basketball practice and helping Syd with homework. Then straight to Syd's practice. Fortunately, her practice is close enough to home that we can go home to wait. And I may even catch some Dancing with the Stars.
