  • Jul,

    I gave DH the link so hopefully he will remember that's what I want when the next gift giving occasion comes around!!

    I'm lucky, I hate Krispy Kreme so that's one thing I can resist!!

    Hope ya'll are having a great day.
  • You know, I'm a Dunkin' Donuts girl myself. I had KK's for the first time in FL in Jul. '02 and they did nothing for me. DD is another story...and there's one right next to daycare!! :zip: Thankfully I don't have time to stop!!
  • Today is better.
    Except I have twisted my left ankle 3 times in the last 2 days ....I'm in pain and going to enter a "W.A. 12 step program (if I can make it thru 12 steps without twisting it again I'll consider myself healed).

  • Hi All,

    First week of work went pretty well. I think once I am able to build a closer relationship with the people I am supporting, it will b e easier on all of us. I have an idea of what each of their personalities is like, and I need to gear my attitude toward that. I was a little bored, because i get in at 8, but it seems that they don't come in until at least 8:30-9:00. I mean, I dont' mind sitting there drinking my coffee and having my oatmeal, but I kinda feel guilty! I was really excited that one of them was gonna have me work on this huge spreadsheet putting in over 700 formulas, but then she figured out something else, and didn't need to do it. Oh well. Overall I like it though.

    I think I have lost some weight too. Haven't checked in a couple days, but I can see it in my face. I always notice it in my face first, the little indents under my cheekbones. So that's cool!

    I'm also getting sick. All three of us are sick...welcome to parenthood I guess. It started with DS's sinus infection. Then DH said he didn't feel good, with body aches, sore throat and stuffy. Then yesterday my throat hurt all day, and I was all stuffed up last night. DH & DS were in bed at 7:30. DH was shivering and chattering. I gave him some Tylenol and put the vaporizer on. His temp was 99 at 7:30, 102.3 at 9:30, and 101.2 at 3:00am. This AM he said he didn't feel too feverish, but the body aches were still there. It was scary for me, because of the way he was shivering under flannel sheets blankets and comforters. I've never seen him, or anyone, like that before.

    SO far Tylenol Sinus is working to keep my head unstuffed. We're supposed to go out to eat for my mom's b-day tomorrow, hope we're not all sick!!

    Have a great day all!
  • hi all.

    think I'm going to have a loss this week also.

    RR - I recently had a time with cookie dough too. Discovered it was pms and that explained it a little anyway!

    lauren - glad the first week went well.
