I know everyone is SO busy..so I'm starting a weekly thread

Not much happening here. Christmas shopping is just about done (along w/our bank account ). Christmas will be spent travelling up to see our son Matt, and probably going out to dinner.

Leenie & Cathy: I KNOW how busy you are! Take a break and stop in

CIN & Tippy: Where have you been? Please stop in and say hi

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Hi Joanne, yeah you can say busy LOL

Went with Mom shopping today, then to dd's school for a sing along, did some wrapping and now I'm ready for bed LOLOL

Joanne, how is Matt doing? I'm glad you'll get a chance to see him for Christmas

I have a ton of cleaning to do tomorrow, shiverssssss just thinking about it.

HI gang!

It is all coming together like it always does....when I cooked turkey dinner for dd 15's birthday party on friday night the roaster spilled over....I have such a mess in the bottom of my stove...if I try to use my self clean the house fills with smoke...when will I ever have time to deal with it and what will I do...I scrapped it a bit and right now it is soaking....

Hang in there everyone and remember what it is all about...try not to get wrapped up in the stuff that doesn't matter!

Hugs

Liz

Good Morning,

I posted on the wrong thread today LOLOL

Liz, hope you get that oven clean, that has got to be the pits eeew. Your 10000% right, we should remember the "reason for the season." Thanks

Well I gotta run, but I'll try to be back later.

Love you all !!!!

good afternoon gang

I figured this was my thread since it said "running around like a chicken" It's good to see everybody posting tho

Joanne - how is Matt doing? will he get to go out to dinner with y'all??? Please stay safe on the road

Leenie - are you off from work for a few days to do Christmas shopping and school plays? hope you enjoy your day even if it's busy. It's still gotta be better than being busy at work!

Liz - glad everything is coming together. Sorry about your oven. I hope you get a clean. That kind of stuff is aggravating.

I ran errands at lunch and I'll run errands after work and try to get home all in one piece Town is crazy right now

Hope everybody has a blessed day
hugs,
Cathy

Jesus is the Reason for the Season!

TTYT

Hello Ladies,

Geepers, we're almost there WHOOT! Today is cleaning and staying in my PJ's LOLOL........well after I finish my cinnamon pecan coffee

How bout you all ???

.

Work is crazy. Scheduling is the pits. Out of nine days, tomorrow is my only day off. I was only off two before that and got called one of them for 2 or 3 different shifts that I did not do!

I always have trouble over Christmas. Makes me feel like a Scrooge
DH and I thought it would be better if we planned a vacation right after Boxing Day and we readjust my meds to cover the extra anxiety.
I think the vacation idea is working but the meds make me tired. I could sleep! At least I haven't had any crying jags.

Five more shifts, two more family parties and then I'm off to the south ... where I can sleep if I want

Social anxiety is the pits! I won a membership at a gym. My orientation is tomorrow. I was excited ... now (when I should be sleeping) I worried. Strange building, strange people ... maybe lots of them.

Good Morning,

Susan I have social anxiety too. Its easy for me to say take a deep breath and just go, but shoot.... I don't know what I would do if I were you Its a tough thing to walk thru a door into the faces of strangers. The only thing I can do or say to you is I will pray for you an pray that God gives you the strength that you need to do it. I do know once you enter those doors you'll be okay. Good luck !!!

Today is DD's Christmas party and if she decides to spend the day in school, I guess I'll have to go shopping haaaaaaaaaaaa

Whats everyone got planned for today?

.

good morning gang

i'm busy with paperwork and payroll. I believe our boss is cooking steaks for us this at lunch time. yum

I need to get a few things today that I will need for Sunday School on Sunday and then will help dh get the turkeys ready today for frying tomorrow and gotta make 2 pecan pies. justr Christmas busyness

Susan - ditto everything that Leenie said. and I have found with friends and family members that deal with social anxiety that once they get where they are going they are usually fine. Please let us know how it goes. I'm saying a pray for you.

And where is the rest of our gang? shopping? wrapping presents? hiding?

Hope everybody has a blessed day!
hugs,
Cathy

Hey Hi!

I am tying up loose ends....gifts are wrapped, food prepped, and I am pretty much organized for the most part.

Have really toned things down this year and it has helped alot.

Thinking of you all!

Best wishes for holidays filled with hope, happiness and peace.

Oh hi gals! It was fun. I learned a lot from a nice fellow called Aaron (who has a friend with social anxiety). He did my body composition and we tried some machines. It was fun ... once I got there.

Aaron was pretty impressed that I walk/jog outside in town where I know that people might be watching and fully understood that I was nervous going to the gym.

I'm not going to join $$$ but it was good and informative.
