Good mornin y'all.
It's been an eventful morning. Percy got Tange again. I'm so fed up with my cat. AND frustrated. He's going to go out in the garage today. If we can get opal she'll go out today too. She got Tange the other day. I really thought it'd be better by now. We'll go for long periods without any attacks the wham! lots of em. My poor girl.
I have my PT appointment today. I am in a lot of pain so hopefully it'll help? I'm losing hope for it working. I'm still in fairly good spirits though. Sticking to the diet. So there's that,
QOTD as a kid I did walk out of one job after my boss called me a B.
B: egg, turkey sausage, low carb tortilla and coffee
L: ????
D: not sure about this either. Depends on what we end up doing later today. It may be chicken satay.
Good morning gang. Boy I just can't catch a break at work. Here I thought things would be quiet for a while only to find out they dropped the ball on who was going to cover the scale house while our scale attendant is out on medical leave. I get told when I walk in that I'm going to have to help out and cover a lot of the 8 weeks she's out. I'm going to be honest I don't have time for this bull**** I keep getting pulled to do this or do that and then get **** from corporate when stuff isn't done on time. Well guess what I can't be in 5 different places at once, doing 5 different things. And they wonder why I get pissy and snappy at some of them. You will only push me so far and then it is FAFO what I am capable of. They say patience is a virtue no it isn't that's a lie.
Anyway I've been harvesting strawberries every night from my strawberry patch, and they are the sweetest ones I've ever had. It's supposed to be a rainy day, so I won't be doing much when I get home.
QOTD: Would you just leave a job without giving a notice? While I have always given at least a 2 weeks' notice or even more. Today I just wanted to get back in my car and go home. One thing I hate is not being told something ahead of time regardless if it is something at work or at home it drives me crazy and puts me in a sour mood for the day.
B: coffee and 2 scrambled eggs with a slice of deli ham
L: tossed salad and cottage cheese
D: hot dogs and beans

Have a great day everyone!!!!
Hi All! I had a fast but good weekend. Em asked me to go furniture shopping with her. Everything is finalized with her upcoming move to an apartment with a friend. She's been in student apartment living so this is a little different and she's looking forward to it. My work day flew by too and now it's already almost bedtime.
QOTD: Yes is the easy/short answer
I had my typical menu with soy chorizo for dinner.
Hopefully I'll post earlier tomorrow.
My parents are long gone and I have eleven brothers and sisters. I see the world through rose colored glasses so they are all perfect to me and I love them all even if sometimes I don't particularly agree with what they do. There are little spats that happen but we still stay close and the kids are all like brothers and sisters even when they live thousands of miles apart.
When you get older you see people's good qualities and overlook their faults. People are different but mostly are good and it is OK if their lives are not lived the same as mine. I treasure my family and friends and it would take a lot for me to write a person off.

Good morning, Jennifer and Menuers,
Proud of you for staying that long. No way I would have put up with it. I made Ron switch seats on Friday so I could talk to my friend that surprised me with a quick visit on Friday. Ron Sat between us and was holding his menu so I could not see. I finally said switch seats. It worked out better since he was now by her husband. This weekend was filled with too many parties with very good food. I am done with graduation parties, and I am glad. The one party had a Pittsburgh cookie table, and I bet there were 20 kinds of cookies. The second party had a full buffet with chicken. pasta w/ 2 sauces, meatballs, roast beef, salad green beans. A huge spread. Then they had a Nacho bar, and an Ice-cream sundae bar. Tons of cupcakes. Needless to say, I ate very little yesterday fighting the scale. Oh, I also got some windows cleaned. I plan on doing another room tonight.
QOTD: I have a brother that lives in Florida. I saw him about 3 years ago. My father past in 2007 and he has never come back to visit my mother since. We were close till he got married but he was always very selfish and cheap and that's not my vibe.
Accountability: The good, Gym both days and restricted eating yesterday, Saturday way too much food.

Good mornin y'all.
it was a decent weekend. We've had a lot of rain and severe weather lately. It's better than drought but tornados and softball sized hail I could live without. We have lucked out here but the town 15 miles to the south of us has been nailed by hail. Lots of damage.
we shampooed part of the living room carpet yesterday. I shouldn't have done it as I am paying for it with pain. I am miserable. No rest for the wicked though. I have to get my b12 shot today. Other than that I have no idea what's the plan for today. I'm hoping we'll be getting the couch this week. If not we'll be calling about it. Saturday marks 6 weeks. eager to get it!
QOTD: boy do I. An aunt my late uncles wife and their two kids(my cousins). I cut them out of my life as they are toxic. My aunt is a racist piece of crap. Uses the n word regularly. Stole over a million bucks from my great grandmother. Just a piece of work. The others are toxic af. They suggested we kept money from them when my grandma died. It's a mess. So many toxic people in my family.
B: egg burrito and coffee
L: PP shake
D: baked fish and roasted carrots.
Good morning, everyone!
Winter lasts so long, but it feels like Spring just flew by. The first day of summer is a week from Friday.
We had a good weekend, 10-K on Saturday and we went out to dinner on Sunday. Marilyn and my youngest are driving one of her cars down to Florida, starting on Sunday, so we decided to do an early Father's Day celebration yesterday. I got Jambalaya and had some Crème Brûlée for dessert.
Today I am in the office and have my swimming class this afternoon. It's kind of a pain driving from the city to my house and then from my house to swimming. But I can't get my wetsuit zipped on my own.
QOTD: We are pretty far from our families, so I would actually like to see them a bit more. But not too much.
Breakfast: bagel
Lunch: catered
Dinner: Jambalaya
Have a great day, all!

A Thai or Laos restaurant usually has Hot Pots where you can get a broth with just proteins and veggies no noodles or sauces. There is a new one that opened a couple of towns over from me that I want to try.
Good Monday morning gang. Here's to the start of another week to tackle things. We have two new hires today that I have to onboard which isn't all that bad, but it's nice when I only have to do one at time since I only have one training computer, but I'll figure something out. Saturday I did a bunch more planting while Irvin went with one of this granddaughters and grandsons to a NASCAR go-cart class that the two of them will be joining and Irvin was asked if he wanted to be part of the pit crew. Yea that was an exciting time for him. He also went back yesterday to watch some of the racing so the kids could understand what was going on.
Late yesterday was one of my nephews wedding in South Kingstown. I picked my daughter up and we got there at 4:30 1/2 hour before it started. I stayed until 8:30 as I had to be up early this morning. The wedding was nice, but I got stuck sitting between my stepfather and oldest sister both of whom I can't stand being near. It took everything in my power not to stab them both. They kept reaching back and forth in front of me because he was showing her his trailer in Maine and how much work he's done to it. I had asked her if she wanted to switch seats, but she was "no why do I want to sit next to Paul". Um I don't know because you're stuck up his ass and always defends him over your own mother. Anyways I was smart and didn't drink anything bu****er.
QOTD: Do you have a family member or members that you could go the rest of your life without ever seeing them again? Yes I have two as noted above.
B: coffee and two eggs with onions and cheese
L: tossed salad with cottage cheese
D: grilled chicken and zucchini

Have a great day everyone!!!!
