Roll Call - It's hump day

Good Morning my extended IL family..

What's going on today?  I have a busy schedule today at work and probably will not be checking in much today.  Calvin's health continues to improve each day, he goes back to his family doc tomorrow and she will determine if he can return to work or if he still needs to rest and take it easy.   Does anyone have any wow moments or exciting news they want to share? Stop lurking, we don't bite.  Come in and tell us what stage of the game you're at and if you have any questions, ask away. Hope everyone has a great day! Christina

 

 

Good Morning Christina and the rest of IL!!  Yay, it's Wednesday.  Every day is closer to vacation!!  I can't wait.   I had my consult yesterday and am just waiting for the nut to call me and schedule my appt to see her and start the 6 month diet.  They would prefer I see her instead of my PCP since I would be his first pt ever to have this done.   It's off to work and then on the way home, I will register my youngest for school.  yay.  I did my two middle schoolers yesterday.  I can't believe the summer is almost over!  It's a good thing though, kids are getting bored Well off to another exciting and fun day! I hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday and may you all be blessed

Good Morning Christina and Monica. I hope you both have good work days, and try to stay cool! Christna, you had asked the other day what I did. I work for Community Action, and my program runs from 9/1 to 5/31. Then, sometimes  we have a specil summer program, and that is what I am working on now, 2 days a week. The program I do is Liheap, which helps low income families with the expense of utilities.  Monica, I can remember when my kids were in school and the first day back, a group of us would go for coffee or lunch to celebrate the freedom. Now it is thier time to get the kids ready for school.  I do enjoy still watching the little ones on their way for the first day at school. they always look so serious. then when they come home, its total smiles.

Today I am working at cleaning out our home office. It has gotten away  from me this summer. Then, maybe  try to go outside for a bit, in the shade of course.  Everyone have a good hump day, only 2 days until the weekend, LIsa 

hey Christina ... busy busy day today ... I have SO much work, and it sometimes just takes me so long to get started on stuff.  BUT, I just wanted to say hi. Carla is coming in from Florida today, wohoo!   Its a hot one ... may have to turn on the AC in my office today ... ick. Have a good (cool) one! Karyn

I'm taking my youngest grandson to the dr today for his school check-up. Then going to my daughters house to have lunch with kids. Well its a nother hot one but I am beating the game , I have not turned on any air conditioning todate. I have 2 window units and we did not put them in this year. It has not been that bad really. Well gotta go have a 10:30 appointment. Karen

Good morning all, Boy am I tired...lol...Well as you all know I went to te surgeon yesterday and now it's  5 classes & a waiting game with the insurance. Thank everyone for the well wish yesterday. Today I have the plumber coming(he never showed on Monday) and I have phone calls to make.  Christina, good luck with Calvin's appt tommorrow. Ido understand how frustratrating doctors can be. Hope this weather breaks before Saturday, it is my son's first football game of the year; maybe I'll sweat some weight off..lol Well hope all has a great day.

Glad to hear that Calvin is doing better.  I have today off but then am doing 12 hour shifts at the hospital the next 2 days.  I'm catching up on laundry today and have to go buy stuff to take to the zoo on Sat.  I'm taking my 10yr old daughter and 2 of her friends into Brokkfield Zoo Saturday.  Kyle Massey from Disney's "That's so Raven"  and "Corey in the House"  is going to be at the Zoo around 11:00.  Samantha is a big fan and I have the day off so how could I pass this up!!  LOL  Then I have a baby shower on Sunday.  So the next few days are going to be really busy.  Hope you all have a good rest of the week and a great weekend.  Hope all of our Rockford area friends are doind well. Shelley

Hey Christina, Welcome back, glad to hear Calvin is on the mend.  I have had connection issues and have been super busy as well. Nothing exciting or wow, just same old, same old here.  Hope everyone is staying cool and  we've seen the last of these storms. Mary

Good afternoon everyone!! I have been busy trying to get prepared for this class I am teaching!!@ I have 23 kids registered!! Yikes!! Working all day today as on call crisis worker!!

Hi There, I am here!!!!! I got here around 1030am My kid picked me up at the airport and then I took her to work so I could have the car. Now I am waiting for her to call so I can go and get her in Northbrook. I am kind of resting cause my feet are so swollen from flying. If they dont go down soon I may have to go and see a doc!!!!! Il take my water pills and see if that wont help. It was a 3 hour flight from Tampa. I left sort of very early cause I wasnt sure where the Tampa airpirt was. Hope all is well. Carla
