A Chilly Morning Start

Posted on Tuesday January 30th, 2007 by | Comments Off on A Chilly Morning Start

This morning was chilly as hell, but we didn’t get the frost. =) But I was able to wear my fully length leather jacket to work…….grin

I didn’t sleep worth a damn last night. I think it was a combo of too much on my mind and I made the mistake of having tea that I thought of decaf before bed…….oops. So I’ll make that one in the morning and go out looking for one that I like for the evening that won’t keep me up.

I didn’t get much done at work as I would’ve like, but still got a few things accomplished. The changes are starting to happen……..which isn’t bad, just hard to adjust to it. Sandee was suppose to finish out this week before heading to her new location, but today pretty much ended up being her last. =( It took us several months to get to a good working point, so I’m going to miss her.

When I got home, Harold had started to address some of the issues that we needed to take care of. I’m relieved that he started it, so we sat down and took care of it together. I just hope that helps all of us to get over this rough spot that every relationship goes through, whether it is personal or business and this one is a combo.

He then put me to work on going over some other work, which makes me feel good in that we are moving forward and taking care of business. But unfortunately my emails will have to wait until tomorrow night. So that is my goal. =)

Harold sees the foot doctor tomorrow, I have a bad feeling that he needs surgery. =( Then I have to start calling around to see what my insurance will cover and stuff…..gggrrr I’m so not looking forward to that part.

Since I’m working a lot of early shifts this week, it’s time to hit the hay. =)

Lewis Black and general thoughts.

Posted on Monday January 29th, 2007 by | Comments Off on Lewis Black and general thoughts.

Current Mood: bored I just bought 2 tickets to the Lewis Black show on April 1, and this time I’m going. To make it better it’s less then 4 miles from us, so we could walk, but…well… I’m lazy… and gimpy, so odds are we will drive.

I was looking at my feet comparing the right to the left. My left foot is still very swollen and where the break is, is about 3-4 times larger then the right foot. It still feels like I step on an exposed electric cord when I put weight on it and after closer examination, I can see the big toe is swollen to. My next Drs appointment is Wednesday, so I am sure I will be full of good news like an operation and 3-6 weeks more of sitting on my ass wanting to go out and do things.

How’s this for odd… I feel fat, I feel disgusting and want nothing more then to start working out on a regular bases and get into shape and start looking and feeling better but of course I have to wait to be able to walk. The last time I felt like this I weighed 236 lbs and I went on a simple diet and got down to 208, but went back up to 225. The last time I weighed myself I weighed 222, this morning, feeling fat, I weighed myself… 214…..

Mmmmm kay……..

A Day Pretty Much Wasted

Posted on Monday January 29th, 2007 by | 2 comments

We just done watching the movie called “An Unfinished Life” with Morgan Freeman, Robert Redford, Jennifer Lopez and a young promising actress Becca Gardner. It was a great quality movie. If you love a good story line with good acting, check it out.

It has gotten chilly here for Florida. It is about 42 now and clear, which means that it will get colder. We are under a frost adversary so we brought the plants in.

I really didn’t get as much done today like I thought I would. For one, I got a late start since I didn’t get to bed as early as I wanted to. I did get lawn mowed and then attacked the litters.

After lunch I went and got my nails done. Now my nails take a lot longer then most women, mainly because I now get a pedicure along with my nails, but it is also because I get designs. Well the last couple of designs have taken even longer then normal because of my teams. Yes, I did get my nails done in both Bears & Colts colors……every other nail to be exact………..grin

Harold’s Harrison Colts jersey arrived today, so we are all set for the big game. Me and my Manning and Harold and his Harrison…………..now I just need to get a picture of us both in them…….grin

I am disappointed in myself, I didn’t get any emails done, didn’t edit any of the pictures that I took at work and I didn’t get my response done for issues that came up that Harold & I need to take care of business wise.

Well, now I need to put away the laundry that threw on the bed and get ready to crawl into it since I have to work in the morning. Yep, today was pretty much wasted……..oh well.

The House Divided

Posted on Sunday January 28th, 2007 by | Comments Off on The House Divided

You want to understand how I feel about my Bears and my Colts, this article explains it pretty well : Illinois-Indiana fan loyalties divided

Makes it harder that my family is from the Chicago area, even though my immediate family is now right down the road from Indy. But being a fan of the Colts started at the same time as the Bears when we moved back to the states to Aberdeen Proving Grounds, about 40 miles north of Baltimore in ’80. I want my Colts to win, but it won’t upset me terribly if the Bears won.

Unmotivated

Posted on Saturday January 27th, 2007 by | Comments Off on Unmotivated

I really don’t want to go to work.  I hate working the late shift on the weekend.  I hope for an easy evening….keep your fingers crossed.

The good thing is that I have Monday off.  So I hope that we get things back on track then, because this is getting old and not getting us anywhere.  I hate having my wheels spinning and nothing moving.

I did actually get a few things done this morning.  I attacked the dishes, laundry and did a quick vacuum so the worst of it is up.

I can’t wait for next weekend.  I have it off!  Yes, and we have the SuperBowl.  Last year I got stuck working it, and there is no way in hell that I am this year, especially with 2 teams that I love.

I’m horrible, I have 2 birthday cards sitting on my desk, just waiting for me to send them out and I have yet to take them out of the bag.  One was late to begin with but the 2nd one…………well, I could’ve had it out on time but lost track of it.

I’m glad I’m working Wednesday; it would 1 year that we lost Aurora.  I need something to keep my mind off of it, although it is already sneaking in.

I guess I better motivate myself to finish getting ready for work…….fun, fun…..
