Weeping Wednesday it is for me, girls. I decided last night that I will not be able to make it to San Antonio for the celebration of Robert's life on Thursday. I'll explain more below.
Cottage: Thanks for starting us up. I'm hoping for some of that snow, not just for the prettiness of it, but because we're dryer than usual out here. Hope your cut and color go well. One of these days I'll refrain from cutting my own hair and have a real stylist do it!! Have a great day in all that sunshine.
Ruth: Thank you for starting us up as well! I've been eyeing a new sewing machine and I think that's what I'll be wanting for my birthday present. Hope the quilt repair goes well and that you have a nice day.
Kara: My goodness!
That sounds like quite a lot to coordinate! I hope it will all go smoothly. It's really nice that you and the kids get to spend so much time with your family before moving on.
Dawn: I'm the same way with my boss. Don't tell him, but it's almost like he PMS's once a month. No joke! Pretty much the same week every month, I get out of the office as much as possible. I hope your boss' annoying-ness has worn off!
Cyndi: Going from a size 18 to a 12 is great! WTG! You're doing awesome! I'm trying to break up with my scale right now. I know I'm too dependent on it. I know my body is changing and that is what matters right now. Ultimately, I would love to just chunk the scale and go weigh myself when I'm happy with my physique. I think I'm a little too addicted, though! Your photography gig sounds like a lot of fun! What are you taking pics of today?
Gonna: That sounds awful!
I hope the medicine gets to you soon! Keep us informed.
Stephane: That's great that your office is doing so well! When we took out our mortgage, some of the offers we were given were ridiculous! (Like 5 years at a low interest rate with a balloon payment of the full balance due after that! WHAT?!) Well, we're sticklers, so we got a good one anyhow. It's nice to see some businesses stayed committed to fair financing while everyone around them really seemed to take advantage of people. Keep it up!
Lisa and
LC!
Schmoodle: Poor DD - hope you find out what's going on soon! And I probably missed it, but where is DH off to? It sounds like it's going to be a long trip. Hope he gets all his things taken care of without too much stressing-poor guy. Have fun Bowflexing! I love the WATP Dvd's! Leslie Sansone is a great motivator. I can really tell what a great workout I'm getting from her Dvd's!
Laurie: Syringe feeding a bunny? You have some patience! I'm the same way about cleaning the bathroom. My favorite time to clean it is after a good workout because right after I clean it, I'm the first one to enjoy the sparkly shower!
Me: Well, orientation was quite a drag. I made several suggestions about it being very impractical for transfer/non-traditional students on the end-of orientation survey. It was a lot of stuff like, "If you're a minor, don't drink." and "Make sure you go to bed at a reasonable hour." and "Your parents aren't here to make sure you pass." It just went on and on. Meanwhile, I wanted to ask if my time there would go towards my mortgage payment. I think not. Anywho, as soon as I left there, I came home to check what is called the "Blackboard". It's a place for profs to post supplemental course info. Well, come to find out, I have homework due in two classes already!! I have to turn it in on the first class day. Apparently this is the norm, but I just wasn't used to it. So, I have statistics homework due tomorrow at 8 am and a power point presentation for Technology in the Classroom due next Tuesday. That is part of why I won't be heading down to SA for the funeral. At work, we're off today because a County Commissioner passed away, so all county offices closed in honor of him. It is a nice gesture, but puts me way behind schedule, so I cannot miss work tomorrow and Friday and may be putting in a few hours Saturday. All in all, this has been beyond a stressful, sad, upsetting, horrendous week and I just want it to be over! (Sorry to be so long-winded and angry - really needed to vent!)

tkglenn: We were apparently simul-posting, but only because I'm so long-winded. This is a great place to be! Everyone here is so supportive and wonderful! Congrats on being down 8 lbs! That's great!
