CHEERY O
Why am I on coffee #3 and I don't feel any more awake than I did before?
Its only 6 am and I need a nap!

I am off to work at MIL's today and guess what she has me doing?

What's my "favorite" cleaning chore ever?
Nope, toilets and tubs are easier than this....

Steam cleaning her carpets. Ahhhhhh!!!! I am going to need to take tomorrow off..... I wonder if I can swing that?
I might not have a choice, however. :faint2:

Meg- ugh- your day sounds like mine except I don't have to deal with customers. But seriously, this whole week was a mess of projects that went ka-plooie no matter what I did. Hope that today is a much much easier day.
Good to hear that Emily is doing better.

Linda S- Hugs to you and your mom, she sounds like such a survivor. Are you taking care of yourself too? You better be!

Hi ME!

Trudy-- omg! Your CopyCat lo is too cute for words!!Yay!!
I actually do have Seasonal Affective Disorder and I have a full spectrum therapy lamp that is at my desk. It helps, but it still doesn't get rid of that "why am I waking up in the middle of the night" feeling every morning.
Thank you for recognizing teachers. Here in NJ, we have a very anti-teacher governor and teachers are getting trashed left and right. I never wanted to work in a public school district, too much politics. And now- 20 years later, you couldn't get me in there with a 10 foot pole. Sadly, lots of good teachers leave because of politics and ignorant policies. The kids are the one's who suffer.
(oops- soapbox again!)

Kat- here's more :tea: for us sleepy heads. Did you have that awful wind yesterday? It was howling, literally all day and night.
All of the leaves that my dad and I cleaned up over the weeknd are now back on the lawn. eep!

I love you toooo Clara!!! I saw on FB that you had another rough day :( Hope that the letters you both wrote will help things out. Please, feel free to ask me for any ideas/help, or even a reminder to breathe. I give you such credit, I could never teach my own kids, they'd make me even crazier than now, when all I have to deal with is HW.

Nana- now it is my turn to ask, you wanna come to NJ and help me clean MIL's carpets? LOL

Huge Hugs Laurie. How very sad and scary for your friend. My thoughts are with her. and with you too.

ToT- its another day that I want to sty in my pj's all day!

Hi everyone,

Yesterday was so busy - I had to teach a class in the morning to staff. I don't know how school teachers do it all day. Training even for 2 hours just completely wears me out. After the class I went to Panera and just sat there quietly for lunch to recharge my batteries. It felt good coming back to the office and just sitting in front of my computer and being silent!

Chris - steam cleaning carpets. Oh my, that's sounding like a lot of work. Hope you can sneak in a nap. ;-)

Thank God today is Thursday - one day closer to the weekend. Woot. My dh and I are going to be battling for tv control tonight - he's got his Miami Dolphins playing and my MD Terps have a basketball game. LOL.

Have a great day. Although I didn't get to leave personals yesterday, I did read through everyone's. Hope the day got better for everyone and today is good one for all of you!
 
Good morning O'Ladies!!! :)
Just a quick post for me ... Iwill be back though I'm off to take a nice hot bath... and have a nap ... I'm home sick for the day!!! ALONE!! in QUIET!!
 
GOoooooooooooooooooooooooood Morning "O" family!!!

Chris - Ohhh YUM!!! More coffee!!! Oh my word it started around 2am here and things were flying! I swore any minute I would see a cow go by my window like it the Wizard of Oz *lol* Later it was wicked! Steam cleaning carpets....that is on my list of Monday or Tuesday. I soooo know how you feel too - I ache all over. Who knew that steam cleaning used so many muscles?

ME - Uh oh....there is a Thursday night game tonight for Football. Shoot I better hide the remote now! Hope you have a great day!

Krista - Awwww hope you feel better!!! The hot bath and the quiet sound heavenly! Sorry your sick though...that kind of takes away from the joy.
 
hahaha oops I kind of forgot to say what I am up to today *lol*

I am processing photos I took at my son's school and creating a DVD for the kids to watch of what we had done so far :) Then I have some cleaning to do :( Boooo! Hopefully want to scrap a little as well.
 
Good morning lady "O"s I hope that everyones Thursday is a great one!! It is frosty here this morning

Glad I am at home this morning and not on the slippery road!! I go to the dentist this afternoon, but the highway should be dry by then. Snow on the mountain tops, means that winter is arriving here on the Island. brrrrr!! I shouldn't complain, its nothing like when I lived on the prairie....now that was COLD!!!!!

Chris- Steam cleaning carpets again??? I think you should have all the carpets removed so you never have to do them again. How can anyone be anti-teacher??? They are the best!! They make you wiser and get you ready to face the real world, they have a difficult job and put up with so much from smart alec kids!! They don't get paid enough and are overworked. (opps!! make some room on that soapbox will ya!) Hope you are not too sore from all the steam cleaning!!

Me - Sorry your day was sooooo long yesterday, Some days I would love a job where I didn't have to deal with others, but then I think I would miss the conversations?? We can't have it all can we??

Krista - Not feeling good today?? Hope its not the flu!! A nice hot bath and nap sound like just the ticket for your illness, hope you feel better soon!! Thanks for all the lovin in the gallery last nite!! I have to do a run through and leave some love too! :hug: feel better!!

Kat - Can't wait to see your photos!! Cleaning house boooo!! Scrapping yaaaayyyy!! Hope you get to do some later!

Nana Linda :wave: to my U.S. Sister

Meg, Clara and anyone else that I missed, hope your day is super!!
 
Hey ladies :)
I'm determined to make today better! Last night my bff couldn't come over, but I made jeff spend the whole evening watching my shows with me. Now he's addicted to survivor. We all watched Throwndown with the Pioneer Woman - it was so fun! And she won!!
I'm still in bed right now, I'm using my phone. I think after my shower I might make some cinnamon biscottis. Now working for anyone else today, but I do have to package up my next kit to list tonight. Hopefully Jeff & I will be able to go downtown to get his new gear - it was about three years ago today that he picked me up at work to have me help him get his gear at the law enforcement supply store for his police academy stuff. A few weeks later we went on our first date :)
 
Good evening ladies.....

I am going to run in and out again today....I literally have no energy...not sure if I am just mentally and physically wiped out from RL, or if I am getting sick. Either way, it sucks!!!

I love you all!!! (and :wave: to you Trudy, my CAN SIS)
 
hey everyone - I read, I ran, I'm back - errands mr gorgeous sick- cloudy cold weather- so in the saga of being the next to the youngest in a family of 12 with heart disease rearing it's ugly head- 3 of the males have had stents, bypass (quintuple) and or heart attacks. One brother passed his stress test, my sister failed hers and is going in for a cardiac cath tomorrow to determine if she needs stents- arghh I want to eat a stick of butter and sit on a log- okay that's out- why with all this history can I not make myself exercise and eat healthy????

hope all that are feeling punky will feel great when they wake up tomorrow
 
Hey ladies...maybe I should have started a new thread but I decided not to. Anyway in the morning we will be headed up to the DMB concert. It will be a lot of fun. Then Saturday is Addie's bday. :)

Today was a pretty good day. Ethan and I will be just fine. The letters were great. Ethan let me know things that I had no idea about. Like he's reading The Chronicles of Narnia and I got the book that is big and the words are small and he hates it. I had no idea. So we ordered new books that are smaller and bigger writing. Not so overwhelming. I promised him I'd get more sleep on school nights too so that I wouldn't be so cranky so easily...although I just got my effexor switched from generic back to the name brand and I think that has made a big difference over the past 3 months. Oh, so I went and saw that horrible doctor to start the process of getting him checked out for ADD and he put in the wrong billing code and it got denied. Idiot. So now I have to take a bunch of time out of my life to fix him being an idiot. He put that he had a learning disorder which ADD is not and Tricare doesn't cover learning disorder assessment. So annoyed!! So, that is what I will be working on tomorrow on our drive up to Charlottesville. I didn't get a buyer for my DMB tix so therefor we're going. It will be great and I'll get to see Nana Linda for a few minutes. Not a long time but a little bit. Then I think we are going to try and Monticello the next day which should be fun. Ethan just read about it today in History and we used to live down the street from the Rotunda in Italy that the architecture of Monticello was based on. It will be cool to just see it.

Okay, I'm outta here. Love you guys!!
