Hi girls. Well I've worked two days on my new shift. Feels very weird to be on days after being on nights for so long. I have seen a lot of people who I haven't seen in a long time. They all have said that I look great which makes me feel really good. :)
Francie your not the only one who is feeling awful I am too. :( Just woke up all achy and my head is killing me and Im freezing which if I am cold then it's either really cold or Im sick because I am hardly ever cold. It's most likely because I have a fever. I called off work. I feel bad for doing it, but if Im sick I really am not going to be very helpful.
Jules congrats on the grandson! :bb:
Sorry I can't remember anything else right now. I will check in later and do more indies.

:hug:

Sassy - It'll probably take some time to get use to the new shift. Feel better :)

Francie - you too! I always use to go to bed w/ wet hair, drove my dad nuts...but I never got sick.

Jules - yay to Ashton! How do you forget to weigh in, I have the scale strapped to my feet. haha Almost, I shouldn't do that. We don't wanna become obsessed...:devil:

Katy - congrats to the weight loss :) :carrot:

Sue- congrats to your weight loss too :carrot::carrot:

:wave: to Cristina,Kathy, and Mindee!

I'm going. Bummed lately. Worried about Gaby and her schooling, thinking of moving back to Portland this summer. Hate that thought but just not making enough money here. And I miss the R's. anyway, chat more later.

I've decided to weigh in every friday. That way all my hard work throughout the week will show up on friday. Plus, I tend to slack off on the weekends..so I can work off the weekend slack through the week, lol.

Jules~Congrats on the new grand baby!! What is the due date in April?

Today went well. Mom's procedure didn't bother her much. She just slept the afternoon away due to the Morphine. :)
Now we just wait for the results.

I went grocery shopping after bringing mom home. I really do not like going to the grocery anymore. Can't think of what to cook..so don't know what to buy. Tired of cooking, shopping and eating. :( I need to get organized.

Have no plans for tomorrow except to get out and walk since it is going to warm up. Wanted to walk today but our street was not cleared off yet. Surely it will be tomorrow.

Mom and I plan to go to Kohl's and the mall...yippee.

So..while doing yoga..I was leaning over and I felt something pop in my back. It wasnt a good pop either. If I dont move, it doesn't hurt as bad. I'm just trying to stay still and keep my back straight. That seems to help. I HATE YOGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I swear, I'm never doing it again!!!!!!! I'm also buying different workouts for the Wii Fit. Any suggestions? I hear the Biggest Loser is pretty good.

I weighed in today. I lost 1 pound. Score.

Hi girls.

Well called off again today. Still feeling ****ty. :barf: I went to the dr. today he said it was viral so nothing much he can do for me, just what I've been doing rest, liquids,etc. I did lose 4 pounds!!!! :dance:

Hope u all are doing well!

:hug:

YAY on losing 4 pounds!!!

Okay, so I didn't make it back to chat :( Will for sure tomorrow evening once Lily is gone. This has been a busy week and right now I am tired and have a headache and just want to go to bed so...I shall chat tomorrow evening, ladies.

Hugs to everyone :hug:

Thanks for all the well wishes on my little Ashton Spencer. Jerry is REALLY excited to have another grandson and Ry,Tonya and Teri all wanted another boy, but I have to say there was a little bit of me that wanted a baby girl...it's ok though I love my Dominic and will be happy for another grandson.

Francie--don't have a WII so I can't help you. Pops in the back are definitely not good unless a chiropractor is making the pop happen.

Crisitina--can't believe I gained everything I lost back again...well I sort of can...that's what happens when I do the mindless grazing,stress eating thing.

Sassy--wtg on the loss, but it's a awful way to get it. Hope you feel better.

Sue--glad your mom's procedure went well.

Katy--you are everyone's hero!!

Kathy my friend...where have you been. It's Saturday and hubby is being an ares...just like clockwork.

SUzyQ--I think I lost 2 lbs...I am not sure how...I hate the scales so I tend to forget and I have been so busy lately.

So I finally made it back here, lol...

Hello everyone...

JULES...I have always loved the name Spencer, such a nice name and is great with Ashton! CONGRAT'S again...I can only imagine how happy everyone is. Bet Ry and his honey cannot wait for his arrival!

SUSAN...everytime I see the commercial for that movie it cracks me up...all the single ladies, all the single ladies...the blonde one is too cute! And your momma doesn't know what she is talking about! Everyone should go to Hawaii! :lol: I will one day...it's on my bucket list.

FRANCIE...hope your back is better, and you're not so stuffy :hug: I can't help you with the Wii either, don't have one. Son has the yoga one and he loves it, lol...can't imagine him doing yoga, lol.

SASSY...you'll get used to working days soon enough, hopefully, lol. I bet it is hard though after working nights for so many years. And hope you are feeling better too :hug: and yay to the 4 pounds! :carrot:

SUE...glad your moms procedure went well. :hug: So did ya find anything good at Kohl's? You know, I always forget the store is here even though I pass it every morning. Just never think about going over there...but I love the store. Yay to your loss as well :carrot:

KATY...wtg on your 2 pound loss :carrot:

HIYA KATHY wherever you are! We miss you, and you too MINDEE! Where are you ladies? Do we need to send a search party?

So I forgot to WI today...funny, I hadn't weighed in so long I can't remember if I was still doing the Saturday or Monday WI's, lol :dizzy: I weighed last Monday I believe and was up almost a pound...remember that so guess I will go with the Monday WI. Not being doing well with the food the last two days...eating out too much. Hard not to when on the go but I guess I could have made better choices...just didn't want to. I know, I am bad :nono: :club: :frypan: :kickbutt: I have exercised 4 days so far though. Of course I know they go hand in hand and if I don't get the eating on track there's really no sense in exercising.

Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend :hug:

:wave: quickie, at work. I'll get tomorrow off w/ Gaby, we might go to Portland tonight when I get off . Suppose to be stormy, so not sure, I don't like driving in real bad weather.

Congrats to all the losers!! :)

Hey girls.

Why do I feel like I have got nothing accomplished this week? I guess it's an adjustment. Plus really tough to do anything when DH is sleeping.

Well I got some good news at work Friday from my old boss. I got my review to tell me how much I would be getting for my raise. (everybody got one--finally!!) Anyways it was way more than I ever expected. Esp from my co. So that made me feel good. They don't give people good raises, they just don't. So I am happy. Makes me FINALLY feel appreciated.

I've been seeing so many people that I have not seen in so long due to working nights for so long. Kind of nice. ESP when they all say that I look so good. ;)

DH is a really bad ENABLER!!!! He brought a bunch of junk food to me AGAIN!!! It's kind of starting to really piss me off!!! I told him, "You want me to stay fat don't you?" He told me, "I just want you to be happy." So that pretty much answered my question and the answer, at least from what I've seen is "yes he wants me to stay fat" Because like my friend said he is getting nervous now that I am changing, not just physically, but emtionally as well. I think he is afraid that I am moving forward and leaving him behind. Any of you experience this with anybody close to you? If so how did you handle it??

Sorry this got so long. I guess I had a lot to say.

:hug:

Happy Sunday...

SUSAN...if you go to Portland be careful!

SASSY...sorry can't help ya there but I've read here on 3fc a lot about the same thing...the men feeling threatened by their SO's weight loss. But, yay to the raise! :woohoo: I know hubby always has to ask for his...he will wait a year and if no one has mentioned it he asks. Anyway...

Lazy day today for me...been on FB most of the morning. Takes too long to add pictures for sure. Anyway...going to go read, get some laundry done and probably watch a bunch of stupid movies, lol.

Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend :wave:

Thanks Cristina. Yeah the raise certainly helps esp with me losing my shift dif and all. Hope your hubby gets his!! Well off to make cucumber salad to have with dinner & salad for my lunch tomorrow! :)

:hug:

Sassy~I feel threatened by my hub's weight loss. Girls look at me like a fat pig and look at him like he's a walking sex stick. What if he leaves me for someone who is skinny and pretty!! I mean..he's been with me since I've looked like this..so maybe he wouldn't leave me..but the thought is always there. Especially when he's on deployment and I get even more paranoid when he goes to different ports. All those different beautiful foregin girls. :( I haven't been losing anything that is noticable..so he probably doesnt have to worry about anything.

Good morning, ladies...

Or is it? For me...no, lol. WI was bad but ya know, not a shock, and I think not correct but most likely not far off. I hate late last night...about 9:30 so I am sure that is part of the reason but...I also pigged out over the weekend in preparing for today, lol. WEll, not so much preparing but...today is day 1 of my challenge. My challenge is to not eat out for 30 days with the exception of Daughter's BD. Plus more water and exercise. I've got to get a handle on this before I end up right back at square one. So today's WI is 199.8 :yikes:

Anywho...moving on with the day, time to do my exercise dvd. Don't have little Lily today so I am aiming to get lots done today. Have to go to the mall later to take something back so will be getting a walk in. Of course the temps have been in the 50's and supposed to be more of the same so I may venture out in the neighborhood to walk this week.

Have a great Monday all!

Hey Girls. :wave:

Happy MLK Day!

Work has been busy all day. We are 3 short today so probably why. But hey makes the day go faster right? Before I knew it was 4 pm and time for my friend to leave already. (she works 7 am - 4 pm) So only 2 1/2 hours left for me! :D

I did get my laundry all done, folded, not put away, but hey at least its clean and folded right? lol. Um made Cucumber salad even though the cucumbers taste not so great because they are out of season right now. Made my salad for work for lunch and it was yummy. :) Had that and WW Boston Creme Pie Yogurt. ;) And a banana earlier for a snack. Not too shabby eh? lol.

Lets see what else? Oh got the kitchen cleaned up and trash taken out lastnight too. I would have vacuumed, swept and mopped the floors but didn't want to push it with my back. But I was happy with my progress at least.

Francie -- Sorry :hug: I know how that feels too. I honestly don't think my DH has that to worry about but I guess I never thought about it. Also he has been working mass OT so he isn't getting to spend much time with me either. I did buy him a card and a little legos toy and stuck it in his laptop bag and he really liked that. So maybe I just got to do little things like that more often. I also took out the trash and cleaned up the kitchen and everything lastnight, he normally does it but with his working so much I did it so he didn't have to worry over it. But have you talked to your hubby about your feelings? All I can say is he comes home to you. I know that prob doesn't make you feel any better. Also my friend gave me some great advice too. Give him what you want in return. Ex: like my little card and gift to my dh. Usually when people do things for people that usually means they would like it if they had it done for them as well. Just a thought and you might already do it, I dunno. But Big :hug: hon. I have lost about 50 pounds and I honestly don't see it much until I started buying new clothes and stuff. Because I kept wearing the same sized clothes and they were all baggy and it makes you look bigger than you are. Just a thought.

Cristina -- Big :hug: You'll get back on track, I know you will. ;) It took me forever to get back on track and even now I still fall off. lol. I know that is frustrating though to want the scale to go down and it goes up instead. :hug:

Big :hug: to everybody.

Another gloomy day here. Low 30's and gray.
I have had headaches and ear aches and am trying to baby it along...don't want a stinking cold while on vacation. :)

WI really sucked.. didn't improve on the .4 I was counting on expanding. ...and won't weigh in for 3 weeks now. I imagine I will break the scale when I return. ha..Actually, I am hoping to do well due to lots of walking. (but, lots of good eating too I imagine) I am taking rice cakes and almonds..not candy and chips, so *fingers crossed.*

This will be a long week....I am already getting outfits together and vascillating on which shoes, which jacket, etc....you know how that goes with women. ha

No news yet on mom's biopsy. (reason for our stress here...) She is doing great.

Sassy- You and Cristina need to come clean for me. Cristina, I don't have a basement, but you can clean here.
You are both doing good....Cristina, keep up the exercising and Sassy the good eating. I am jealous...

Laundry to fold and utility room to clean. Have a good day all!

Hi all! WI has me down another 2, back to square one...but recovered from the holiday bingeing.

Not much to report around here. I trained at school for an Art Literacy project to do with my DD's class, then I came home and cleaned...still not done with that. Son got sick at school and I had to go pick him up. Such an exciting life, lol!

Now I need to get back to finishing up that laundry!

Sassy - WTG on 50 pounds - I had no idea you had lost that much...where have I been, lol! You look great. I bet your hubby thinks so, too. Men seem to have a hard time coping with change sometimes, don't they? But in the end, I am sure he wants a healthy happy wife and he will support you. Congrats on the raise.

Francie - you look great, too!

Cristina - I like your goal..we need to eat out less as well. Seems like we are doing a bit too much and we can't really afford it.

Sue - hope you get some good news on your mom's test.

Jules - congrats on the grandson-to-be...that's very exciting

Susan- did you make it to Portland?

Kathy - Hi - hope you are well.

I didn't make it to Portland, I've been tired w/ work and the same ole routine. Didn't really want to go in to taxi girls to the mall. ha
Weight is 154.8 this morning,been awhile for anything below 155 so I am happy w/ that. And I was able to get back into my jeans and I don't feel bloated anymore.
Tax day, going to sit in my kitchen and hammer out the numbers and hope to toss it in the mail this afternoon. I want my money! :D

I'll catch up later, if I don't get some things done before computer time, I get nothing done. lol

Five days...that is how long the weatherman has to IMPROVE conditions in San Diego...I do not want a vacation full of rainy days.
Still cold and dreary here. We went to IHop for breakfast to try out a new place. I was not impressed and I have heard so much about them...we must have gotten a bum one here. :)
Doing nothing today, just sorting through clothes and doing some packing. DH brought me the suitcases...so I guess he is ready for me to fill 'em up.

Eating has been going 1/2 way decent and I have been using the trampoline. Otherwise I am a slug....one who hates winter blahs!

Yay for Susan and Katy for the scales going down. And Sassy for her achievements. I wish I had the "oomph" of Cristina for exercising. I am envious of all....and I know I have WORK to do.

Happy Hump Day ya'll.

Latest picture of our sweetie pie. He will be 9 months old Feb. 1st.

Hello all...

Meant to post daily but came down with something Monday (think it was over the weekend) and haven't been on the computer until today. Baby is sleeping and I am feeling a little better and was bored. Anyway...as said about the 199 whatever it was I am happy to report that on Monday WI was 195 something (I wrote it down) but as of today it is 191.4 not good. I mean it is good but I can't take credit for it. I've been on a soup, jello, icecream diet for the last three days...haven't been able to stomach 'real' food until today...feeling better and my appetite seems to be coming back slowly...just wish the sore throat and crap in the sinuses would go away. Anyway...I'm not changing the ticker or anything until Sat, my official WI day. Decided to go back to a Sat wi because of Sunday dinners, lol so we will see what Sat's WI will be. I know it will go up once I start eating again so anyway...

Sorry for no indies...went to FB first for a little while and baby should be waking. Will try to get back here tomorrow or tomorrow evening. If not Sat for sure.

SUE...can't remember when you are leaving but be safe, and I hope the weather changes for ya! Oh and cute picture of Mason, can't believe how big he is getting!

Have a good rest of the week everyone!

Hi Girls.

Well today I fell off the wagon. lol. I stopped at Mickey D's this morning. Then ate Strawberry Marshmallows and a banana for lunch! lol. :rofl:

But I did make awesome chicken lastnight!! I took boneless skinless chicken breasts and covered them in crackers and some Parmesan cheese, with a drizzle of Garlic Infused Olive Oil over them, and baked them. They were pretty good! Even DH liked them! I brought that and green beans for lunch, that I didn't eat. lol.

Anyways. I have been playing the drums on Guitar Hero and man what a workout! lol. My friend's DH lost 40 pounds by playing them! I can see why! I sweat bullets when I am playing! lol. But its fun and better than just sitting there like a lump. lol.

Question. Ever since a couple weeks ago when my friends and I went dancing, my hips have been killing me. I thought at first it was just a pulled muscle and that it would go away. But it still hurts. So do any of you know of any exercises I can do to strengthen those muscles??

Katy -- Yeah I didn't realize how much I have lost until my friend made me go shopping and try on clothes that actually fit me and don't hang off of me! I was amazed then was weighed last week at the dr and lost another 4 pounds so that brings me to a total of 50 pounds lost so far! YEE-HAW! :carrot: Now just have to keep it off and keep losing! lol.

Cristina -- Glad your feeling better!! My DH was too, he is over it now, but it stinks when you feel bad!

Sue -- Its been the strangest weather here in OH lately. in the 40's and 50's one day then in the 30's and now a chance of sleet? Weird. DH and I are planning on going to Vegas either next month or in March. I am excited as I've never been, he has, but its been a long time.

Thanks Everybody and Have a Great Evening!

Big :hug:

Sassy~I never lost any weight by playing the drums on Rock Band, LOL!!! I play it all the time too. Well..I've switched to the guitar because I rule now. It gives my fingers a nice workout though, lol.

I've totally gone off the deep end. Well, not really..since all I eat now is healthy foods. But still. I haven't worked out at all all week. I've been sleeping so poorly lately. Which is why I probably haven't lost anything. I got sick on tuesday morning, slept all day until 6pm. Then I didnt sleep at all that night..and went to sleep at 3pm on wed. Thankfully I found some cold medicine to knock me out that night. But then the cats woke up me up at 7am on thursday. I was pretty much cranky all day long. But I went to bed at midnight and woke up at 5:30am today. Figures huh?

Ohh..what is up with all the crazy weather? There was a tornado in Arizona!!!!! That is really rare!! Nothing ever happens in Az. Everything is making me think of The Day After Tomorrow.

Speaking of tomorrow. Sat will mark 7 years since Fonzo & I started going out. :D

Francie--this has actually been the worse winter in quite a few years around her. Uggg, I hate frezzing rain, much rather it be snow...though I REALLY am tired of snow. Snow is easier to drive in than ice. My hubby used to get hit on in front of me, he still gets flirted with alot, but even on the days where I want to give him away...he's mine. PS--not all girls like skinny sex sticks--my skinny daughter happens to like guys with extra love handles and it doesn't mattter what they other girls want when he wants you!!

Sassy--wtg on the 50 lb mark!! Cute on the little gifts to hubby. Your chicken sounds good.

Cristina--I did lose 2 lbs of the too much I gained back. Sorry you have been sick.

SUe--I am not impressed with IHOP either. I know what you mean on the weather....I am so ready for spring!!

SUzy--Here's to getting back in your jeans and a BIG tax refund!! I haven't got a refund since I lost the kids as dependents...at least I break even.

Katy--you always amaze me with all your activities.

Had a great day with mom, we got very nostalgic going through things, but it was a great day!!

Jules~I'm so tired of this weather. I'm sick of rain and snow!!! When will spring be here?? I dont like skinny guys. Even though Fonzo was thin, he was cut pretty nicely. That's always been my type. Fonzo doesnt like skinny girls, lol. He likes curvy girls. Maybe I should change my opinion on how thin I want to be...

yippee, @ 153.6 this morning.

working this weekend, still here though! chat more when I get a second.

:wave: to everyone!

Happy Saturday, all!

SUSAN...yippee on the 153.6! :carrot: Don't work too hard missy!

JULES...glad you had a great day with your mom. :hug: I would love to have more days with mine...distance is a biotch for sure.

SUE...I was gonna say have a wonderful time in San Diego but I KNOW you guys will! Be safe!

FRANCIE...we've had some weird weather here as well but for the most part it's been decent. We haven't had the snow we had last year *knock on wood*, lol

SASSY...your chicken sounds good! And WTG on the 50 pounds, that is awesome! :carrot:

HIYA KATY...

And where the heck is MINDEE and KATHY? Miss you ladies :hug:

Okay, so WI this morning I am at an even 194 and that sounds a lot better than 199 something for sure! Probably would have been a little less but I was a sort of pig yesterday, not so bad I don't think but I was hungry...too bad nothing even tasted good. I can't taste anything my nose is so messed up. Anyway...I've got laundry going and I plan on reading and being lazy today. Going to make two desserts for tomorrow's dinner later but that's about it. I've got to be careful this week for sure with the eating with Sunday dinner and then daughter's BD Tuesday...good thing I don't really care for strawberry cake. Anyway...take care all and enjoy your weekend!

We talked to DS and it is sunny in San Diego...so now I am READY to go. That rain had me worried.
I won't have a computer unless I use DS's so I might not check in often....I should have gotten my Netbook. We have been talking about one for me or a Blackberry...and I just didn't do anything. The story of my life, procrastination.
Hope you all have a wonderful 3 weeks..."I'll be back!"

WI before vacation...still holding at 1 pound down, which was a surprise. *fingers crossed* that I maintain the 1 pound and do even better...3 weeks from today for next weigh-in.
Adios... :)

I need help!! How do you go about finding a vet?? I really need to get my cat fixed asap!! She's been spraying so much lately, because she's in heat every other week!! I cant take it anymore. Do you base the vet on ratings, or what? Do I look for a clinic, or a hospital? I would guess a clinic, since the one in WA we went to was one. I'm so confused. I miss the one in WA, lol!! There was only one, and it was good.

Howdy! drive by weigh-in today..gotta go to class. WI was 172.2...so I'm happy. Hope you are all well and I'll try to get back soon.

Quickie here too. I have to get some morning errands done before work!

Congrats Katy!

Francie - word of mouth here on a good vet, do you have any friends w/ pets??

Sue - have fun on the vcation!

Cristina - Happy Birthday to your daughter today!! How old is she?? Congrats too on your weight loss. And I am working hard, I am BURNT out, I hate my job. lol Sorry....I have to go have an attitude adjustment.

:wave: to everyone else!! Better get moving.

Happy Tuesday Everybody! lol.

Well I got pulled into a meeting with my boss and manager. Guess what? My schedule is changing AGAIN! Everybody is moving to either 7 am - 7:30 pm or 7 pm - 7:30 am and there are four shifts: Sun - Tues and every other Wed or Thurs - Sat and every other Wed. on both Days and Nights.

So I chose 7 pm - 7:30 am Sun - Tues and every other Wed. So a lot like my old schedule just different hours. Nothing is set in stone but my manager said he would try to get me what I wanted. Its effective March 1st, but my manager said he may move me sooner. I was like "doesn't matter to me if its gonna happen, doesn't really matter when." lol.

But I am sure my coworker/friend is not going to be happy about it either. I don't think anybody is honestly. But its either change or no job. So I suppose I have job hunt harder now. Because I honestly don't want to work those long hours again. I know beggers can't be choosers, esp now, but I am tired of doing long hours.

I dunno it just gives me such an uneasy feeling to be moved around so much, you know? That isn't a sign of good things. I like stability and this job is anything but that. Is it too much to ask for to just have a job, any job, that is stable? I know there are lots and lots of people unemployed right now, but I think honestly I'd rather be than this. Its a constant worry if we are going to have a job or not.

Anywho its almost lunch time for me.

Have a Great Afternoon & Evening Ladies!

:hug:

Whew, hadn't been here in a while and I thought I missed out on a lot! Guess everyone is just mainly over at FB....

SUSAN...I can totally understand you being burnt out...sometimes we all just need a break from it all. Hey, Hawaii trip will be here soon (if you are still going) and that will do it for ya, or it would me, I think, lol. Daughter is 26 yikes! I am feeling old! Josh will be 28 next month...man, I am old!

SHEL...I can only imagine all the moving around and the schedule changes, geez, it wreaks havoc on ones body too...gotta get something and stick with it for sure. And yes, those are long hours, don't know how you do it.

SUE...hope you are enjoying San Diego...3 weeks ugh? Enjoy, enjoy and I hope the weather is cooperating for you guys!

KATY...good job on the WI!

FRANCIE...I picked ours out of the phone book, lol. I got lucky too cause they are good and I like them. We actually live in a different county and I don't know if you are supposed to license in the county you live it but I never did. Always went back to them even if I had to drive the almost 20 miles. But yeah, I would go with Susan advice...word of mouth is always the best I would think. And I would think clinic...of course I don't even know where a hospital is here...the vet had everything that I guess the hospital would. Ernie dog had his surgery there and such so...good luck on your search.

HIYA KATHY, JULES, MINDEE and, and...always feel like I am missing someone, so sure I am. Really need to get back here more often. I just don't get on the computer much at all while watching little Lillian and she's been sick so she's taken up even more time keeping a watchful eye.

And nothing really going on here. I haven't exercised much at all since getting sick last week. I tried but I've gotten so freaking lazy I am disappointed in myself big time. Was going to today but I keep using stuff as excuses, lol...whatever. I know I will get back on track some day. Hoping to start anew come Monday once I get enough of this antibiotic in me to make me feel better :crossed:

We got lots of snow last night, ugh! Tired of that stuff even though we haven't gotten much this winter, lol. It wasn't snowing when I got up but it started again. Supposed to get 4-8 inches when it's all said and done.


Anyway...better get going, smells like my beans are burning...cooking pinto beans for chili later.

Take care all and have a wonderful weekend!

Hey Ladies!

Well I'm sick, again. :barf: I swear I think it has to be from DH working at Childrens Hosp. You'd think immune system would be like steel by now!! Lol. So sitting here waiting for the dr. At least I have my I-phone to keep me occupied. Lol.

Also my friend\coworker and I are no longer friends. I believe she started an argument to make it easier to deal with me going back to nightshift. She is taking the dayshift long shift, which is the same days as me, but opposite hours. We've worked together for a year and a half most of that time it was just me and her and for the longest time it was 46 hours every other week together plus time outside of work too.

But she brought my husband into it and that's when I had enough. So we haven't talked since except for when I called in this morning and I could barely speak because I lost my voice. Then got sick later. :barf:

So anywho it's done and over with and I guess I am a cold and heartless ***** because I don't feel bad about it. It's more like a relief to me. Because some of u who have been around awhile may or may not remember last year this happened with her before, so I am just really TIRED of all the BS.

Well guess I have something viral according to my dr. Also according to my dr I have a very strong gag reflex. Lol. Because drs have to practically gag me to see my throat and I never gag because Im so used to it. Lol. And I gained weight according to my drs scale and I don't buy it because if I gained that much my brand new jeans that I was wearing and they are not even close to being tight. So figure I will re-weigh myself in the a.m.

Anyway, hope everybody here is doing well.

Sassy--hugs...so you will be back to nights with the hubby..that part is good. Sorry about your friend/co-worker....she shouldn't have brought your hubby into it. It seems like you were always a better friend to her than she was to you. I don't think you are cold and heartless...some people are toxic and bad for us....why is we are always blaming ourselves for their actions...

Cristina--I have such a sore throat and am not feeling well myself.

Susan-works does suck...wish I could with the lottery and not have too!!

well, seems like I just got on here but Dominic and hubby are wanting me with them so I gotta go!!

Hello all...

SASSY...sorry about your friend/co-worker. :hug: Hope you feel better soon too!

JULES...hope you are feeling better too!

Nothing much going on with me this weekend...being a hermit. Snow kinda messed up plans since Friday so I am being lazy and actually getting lots of reading done! Started a book yesterday and finished it this evening. Hoping I stay on this kick as I love to read. Now to get back to exercising and stick with it! Guess I am starting over once again. Got sick and lost weight but as of today I have gained 2 back so...yeah, need to go back to my soup, jello & ice cream diet without the sickness, lol!

Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend and staying warm!

Hey girls,

well I feel a little bit better , but still not quit 100% yet. All I have done is sleep. But I suppse that is what your supposed to do when your sick. ;)
Now DH is sick as well.

Jules -- Thanks and I have to agree w/ you on that. I felt like I was always doing like 110% of the work on our "friendship" and she was only doing 10% and that's if she really was "trying." I also felt like I was never good enough just as "myself" you know?? She was ALWAYS "making me over" which I am glad on the most part because I am a better person. But I think I, myself had something to do with that as well. Now my other "friend" got all pissy with me as well just because I cancelled lastnight for her to come over my house to play Guitar Hero. Um sorry but me AND my DH are both sick and not interested in "entertaining." So I think it's time for me to find new friends, friends who treat me like oh I dunno a human being instead of always being crapped on.

Cristina -- Thanks. I haven't done much of anything latley either. I just recently watched "My Sisters Keeper" def nor as good as the book!! I haven't read much since Ive been on days but maybe once I go to nights.

Big :hug: to all!!
