Good Saturday Morning Cali

Well Good Morning to all of the Cali board peeps!

I do not know why I am sitting here because my back is killing me from lifting a 50lb box of clay the wrong way yesterday. I really thought I would be okay by now, but noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!! And a huge grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! I know better, but sometimes forget that my back sometimes is fragile.

Yesterday, I received yet another request for a transfer interview. It is at the newest middle school in the district...beautiful school actually. The principal want to interview me on the same as the one for the high school, but I got him to schedule on Monday instead. I am going to hold out for the high school, but take what is offered if I like it. I am just really blown away about the interviews because things are so tight with the state budget for education crisis and I thought my chances were next to nothing landing an art position let alone an interview! So I am nervous, I am going into uncharted territory!

I do not know what you all have planned for the day...I know a number of you are doing the LB coffee thingie..look forward to the pics. Katt's having a dinner...but beyond that....nada....so spill kids!

Whatever you do, I hope all of you have a wonderful day. Take advantage of the wonderful sunshine that is abound in our gorgeous state!

 

PEACE OUT!!!  

Good Morning

I woke up early so I could ride my bike to work, but I am not feeling all that great this morning and dont know if I am going to ride it. I think I am just being lazy today. But since I didn't do much yesterday. I guess I should force myself to ride this morning

OK Guess I should get moving.

I wish you all a great day

GOod morning Janine and all the cali crew So sorry that you messed up your back - take care of yourself so that you can ace those interviews....that is so great and I am so happy for you. I am looking forward to LB Coffee this morning as it seems we have a few newbies and pre ops coming to join us (I hope).  And it should be a beautiful day and you KNOW I will take lots of pictures.... THen after coffee I am making a run to Nordstroms with my sis to visit the MAC counter.  WOO HOO.  I have already visited the web site and written down the different things I wnat to check out.....the only thing I need is Mascara but you know what happens once I get there.....uh oh. ANyway, time to go make some coffee and read the paper Everyone have a great day. And to all of you locals and others - see you at 10:00 at Starbucks for coffee.

Morning all!  Janine - take care of that back!  I've had a few bouts with back problems, and it is NO fun at all (was out of work for 6 weeks one time) - I feel for you.  Have to get it really better for July when you will be camping on the ground in a tent! I'm picking up my friend this morning and heading to a 100 family garage sale in Imperial Beach.  Looking for sweaters and jeans for my cruise to Alaska . . .the next 10 days up there is rain and highs of 48 - lol how fun is that?  I leave on May 11so it is going to be cold. Have a great day everyone! Chris

Good Morning Janine and Calif Friends!  How is everybody?  I hope well.  This morning is my "March for Babies" walk.  I will be "gellin'" for sure!                   Janine, that is awesome about the interviews!  YOU GO GIRL!!! I wish you the bet of luck. Well just wanted to "POP" in and say hello!  You all have a great day! Get out and enjoy the sunshine!     Jeni

Good Morning everyone!    It is clear as a bell with the mild Santa Ana wind we've had the last day or so here. Looks like we will be in the mid 90's today. Sounds lush to me!     Today D will be working around the house and garden with some limited help from me. Then this evening we head over to my Mom's for a family birthday celebration for my brother Bob and myself.       Speaking of Bob I spent my birthday day with him at the hospital getting his belly drained. Pretty interesting procedure too. Kind of like siphoning a gas tank! And the relief is instantanious too! It was awesome seeing him go from miserable to comfortable in a few hours. They were able to drain 6 1/2 liters of fluid from him.     WOW!  When he got there they weighed him in at 244 and when they weighed him as he left he was 228.... 16 pounds of fluid gone! Now the hope is his water pills can help his diseased liver keep the fluids from building up. I know the doc is going to look at adjusting the doses and such and they are testing the fluids for some other issues as well. Of course he will never get better per se but we hope they can keep his treatment current as his condition changes over time to prevent further liver damage and his symptoms under control.  Hey J I hope your back pain eases up quickly girl and you are feeling tip top as soon as possible! You have too busy a life to be sidelined by that cranky back of yours! Hope everyone enjoys their Saturday!      

Morning! Have my son's t-ball game bright and early this morning.  Some good laughs to follow.  My middle baby woke up with her eyes sealed shut- she either has pink eye in both eyes or is having the worst allergies that she has ever had.  I am taking her over to the hospital after my little guy's game. Other than that, nothing on the agenda for this weekend.  My oldest is probably going to go over to her BFF's house to work on a science project and will most likely be gone until tomorrow at some point.  It is good for her to get away from her bro and sis.  I am thinking that next weekend would be nice for ME to get away from the kids.  lol.  Just dont think anyone is available to take them. Oh well. So that is it.  Going to enjoy the weather today, maybe take the kids to the base theater for a movie tonight or at least maybe rent some movies.  Does anyone know if P.S. I love you  is out on video?  Mike tells me that I HAVE to see it. Have a wonderful Saturday California!  Enjoy all the beauty around you....

Morning Janine and Cali! Today is supposed to be a heat wave here at the coast. I believe up to 85. My DH is going think he's having heat stroke! LOL I may actually be warm for a change. Today also brings me to being even better yet. I don't think I'm quite 100% yet but I'm definately well on my way and very greatful for it. Sammi and I will head out to Wal-mart and Albertsons pretty soon for the usual weekend errands. Then maybe down to the beach or the park with the doggy. It's going to be way too nice out there not to go enjoy it some. Janine - you take care of that back girl! you know you only have one and yours is cranky at that! Hope you find relief quickly. Hope everyone enjoys the day! Sue

Goood morning all!

Janine,
I hope your back gets better soon, back pain is no fun. I am so happy for you and the interviews I just want you to be in a more peaceful environment.
I finally went to the doc's yesterday have had 7 migraines in the last 11 days got a boat load of pills only took one last night and for the first time in a week or so I had some relief... my students have been so kind I had to stop using the overhead it triggered 2 migraines and keep the shades drawn and lights to a minimum they think it is fun... I love my class.
Anywho time to get moving. Take care maybe some hot tub time to relax the muscles??? just a thought
Be well CALI Lynnie
