Good mornin y'all.
My appointment this morning was canceled due to the building being flooded with six inches of water. Ugh. Wanted to get that out of the way! We'll see when or if it gets rescheduled soon.
I am feeling very rough. I don't want to do anything. I'm thinking we'll go to Sam's. I'd rather stay home but my mom is getting stir crazy
QOTD: I've never had one so nothing lol
B: egg, cheese and a pita half. Coffee
L: ???
D: burrito.
Good morning, Matt and everybody!
Hope that you enjoyed the concert last night and that it was a good distraction. I like the United Center as a venue: comfortable seats, lots of food options, and a little easier to get home from for those who live in the Western Suburbs. We had Blackhawk's season tickets for many years.
I'm headed into the city right now, and for some reason, the heat is on in my train compartment. I'm not minding it since the boys keep my house so cold that I have to wear a coat to watch television at night.
QOTD: I don't know if I've had a Klondike lately. Is it real ice cream? I dump pretty quickly on real ice cream. I can eat the fake frozen treats.
Breakfast: bagel
Lunch: meatball sandwich
Dinner: steak
Have a great day, all!

Good morning all and Happy Humpty,
I broke up with Paula. It's for the best, despite me questioning the decision. I have found myself in a quagmire of life at the moment. Lots of reflection, and much growth ahead.
Last night, I did some self care and treated myself to the nine inch nails concert at the United Center. Tickets were a fraction of face so I scored good seats.
I'm currently on my way to the doctor. It should be routine. The rest of my day is blocked in 15 minutes increments with a spare fifteen minutes weaved in.
QOTD- What would you do for a Klondike Bar?
Steps: 10,460
B: breakfast in the car - premier protein shake
L: Italian beef in a bowl w sweet peppers and hot oil. Carrots sticks and cauliflower. Salad
D: Rib tips and Cole slaw.
Have a great, productive day all!

Opps I forgot the rest of the QOTD!
I'd open an animal sanctuary. That's my dream. Buy a piece of land and run a non profit sanctuary where people could volunteer and that sort of thing.
I dont play the lottery so it is not something likely to happen. If by some weird chance I bought a ticket and won, I would set up a foundation to help young people who are struggling with education. i also would donate generously to animal shelters. There is a man in my town who set up a large shelter and rescues and finds homes for stray animals. I do donate but would love to be able to give more.
I can see where someone with your knowledge and experience would enjoy living off the grid. I have lived beyond most material wants, but money always comes in handy.

Good mornin y'all.
Not a lot happening today. I'm hoping it stays that way. I need a chill out kind of day. Yesterday I ended up getting roped into helping trim a tree in the backyard. I over did it but **** needs to get done. Esp before possible surgery. I had a bad night due to it. I'm in a foul mood still. I did find over the weekend a bunch of lume deodorant on clearance so that's awesome in this heat.
I may do some clothes washing today. My mom is going to work on the fence line getting some weeds out of it. I just have to sit it out today.
QOTD: we've gotten some in the past but don't play all that much. Maybe 1-3 times a year if that.
B: eggs, sausage, cheese and coffee
L: what's left of the sesame chicken or a burrito.
D: chicken stuffed with broccoli and cheese and some separate broccoli.
Good Morning Crew. Today is already off to an interesting start. We have an employee who went out on FMLA in March due to a personal medical issue and now he is trying to claim it as a workers comp. Our legal department is now involved and is starting an investigation. Honestly he should have never made it past 90days as he called out 15 times during his first three months of employment. He spent the Summer having fun with his girlfriend and their baby. Now his FMLA and short term disability are up so he is trying to get more time off by any means.
QOTD: For those of you who play the lottery like Powerball or Mega millions if you won what would you do with the money? Since Powerball is over 500million I will buy a few extra tickets just incase. I would purchase a plantation in the South not overly far from the ocean, enclose it with Jurassic Park fencing and live away from everyone. I have enough knowledge of things that I wouldn't really need to venture out into the world for much. I would love to live 100% off grid.
B: RYZE coffee and 1/2 cup cottage cheese with blueberries
L: garden salad
D: chicken salad stuffed hot peppers
Irvin tweaked something yesterday while working on one of the trucks and then when we went to Y it was bothering him more so we are going to take a few days off from exercising.
Have a great day everyone!!!
