It Be Thursday!
Morning Cali! Hope everyone is doing well - had great birthdays . . . haven't been blown away with the winds (omg - the bowl of water outside for the cats and possums looked lilke a mud puddle!) . . . anyway - I digress . . .
We had a weight loss of 20.4 this week! Wahoo! We are doing great for the year for sure! Actually, this has been the slowest month for us this year . .. so next month we will really dig in and get those numbers up (well down . . .hummm . . . hope you can follow my confused brain).
Went to get a fill yesterday . . . gee . . .they couldn't get the needle in the port . . . or rather they thought they did . . . but got nothing back out . . . hummmm again . . . so now they want to schedule me for some test at the hospital with dye and crap . . . and I'm not even sure I want to do that right now . . . if I know I'm working on empty, maybe that is enough to get my head in the right spot . . . we'll see.
Nothing else much new - have to kick off my electronic United Way campaign at work today . . . was ready to go last night, but the head partner says "well why don't we do this, and why don't we do that" . . . and since we're allow no OT . . .it had to wait until I go in this morning.
Have a great day . . . hope the wind goes AWAY!

Good Morning Chris!
I am sorry to hear about what happened with your fill. I don't knw much about the lap Band thing at all but it does not sound too good to tell you the truth. I am hoping that you get a day off sometime this century you have been working way too hard girlfreind. I know as you are up before me, go to bed later than me and you work like everyweekend. Not fair and not good for your health I am sure. So I am a wishing/hoping/praying that you get a day of relaxation soon.
Well today is more work and I am still not feeling good at all. I am trying to get better but my what ever this is keeps a coming and a going so who knows. Well back to the cafe for me have an amazing day all.

Good morning Chris and Cali,
I want to thank you all for the b-day wishes it was nice. I had a wonderful day yesterday. Went to lunch with my staff and dinner with my family. We were looking a pictures from my last b-day and it is amazing the difference. I have had so many WOW moments lately it is not funny. I hope this continues and life just keeps getting better.
Hope you all have a fantastic day!

Good morning and big ole Brrrrrrrrrr.......
Dayum it is cold out. I mean I like cooler weather, but this is ridiculous. I ordered a new winter coat and it's not here yet. It can't get cold until my coat gets here. And then of course between the change in weather and the wind, my allergies are so bad I think I might blow my brains out through my nose. I know, that was probably a visual none of you needed this early in the morning. But I think you get the idea.
Nothing major on the agenda today. Just work all day, then bowling tonight and be sure to get home in time to watch Project Runway. We are getting down to the end now. So that is my plan for the day.
Hope everyone has the kind of day you want. Make it good no matter what and remember in all you have to do for the day, do something special just for yourself.

Last night Anna and I went and saw the Circus du Soleil in Santa Monica. It was too theatrical for me and began to doze away during the last 45 minutes. Anna loved it! I thought it was ok.
Hope everyone has a great day and thank goodness tomorrow is Friday

Good Morning Everyone! I've been running on empty myself working 16 - 18 hour days. OMG it's unreal the energy I have now. I have to remind myself to refuel sometimes.
WEll, the old man and I went out and bought my new kitchen floor. While we were at it, we also bought a new slider. Well, we picked it out. I also found a french door I love but he's going to see if we can get screens for it and if we can we're going to put it in. He'll be picking that up today and installing it. Imagine this - after 6 years of having a door that won't open, has failed seals and is foggy having a bright new beautiful door that opens, has screens on it and everything. Oh, my ....... wonderful!
Today we had our Campaign for the Community meeting that I was in charge of. So I was up early and brought in a wonderful abalone dish. Told the guys I was shooting for 100% participation (up from 16% last year) and all I was asking was a signed participation form and a one-time donation and they could help themselves to any of the plethora of goodies on the table. Muffins, cantalope, grapes, strawberries, mini bagels, abalone, orange juice....... And I encouraged them to donate to the school districts here as our company has a matching funds program to any 501C organization. Whatever they donate, our company matches. I brought in FOUR speakers who talked about the music programs, the after school tutoring programs and the physical education programs and their need for money. It's going so well now! Out of 43 people I have 28 forms back and only 1 has refused to donate.
I can hardly wait to get my new floor in. We're going to put red toe plates on the bottom to match the chair rail and it'll go soo good with the wainscotting. Joe's going to help me fix one part of the chair rail and my kitchen will be done. Almost. Going to go buy new refrigerator. Must.
Off and running. Need to get my vitamins in and start on my water!

It sure is good C'ING LESS OF ME!
We could learn a lot from crayons:
some are sharp, some are pretty,
some are dull, some have weird names,
& all are different colors....but they
ALL exist very nicely in the same box.
