Saturday WLS Express

Good Saturday morning...my lovely little kitten decided to wake me up at 5 AM by STANDING on my collarbone and loudly voicing her desire for food!!  Not a pleasant way to wake up.  My work schedule got changed so I'm no longer working today.

Since I have no plans, there's a support group meeting at Doctor's hospital that I guess I'll go to since I haven't been in a while.  They offer water aerobics for $5 but I didn't sign up since I thought I was working.  I really wanted to do that cuz I haven't been since the summer. 

Since it's so cold outside I might just hide in the house all weekend.  I should do my income taxes this weekend.  We always get a big refund and lord knows this year we need it. 

Prayers to those job shopping (including my daughter) and those sick.  Have a super day and make good choices.  If you haven't taken your morning vitamins, STOP reading and go get them right now...(said in my most loving mommy voice).

Stephanie,
You lovely kitten must be a not so distant cousin of my lovely cat.  She does the same thing at 5 am every day!

My neice here in Texas-the 7 year old- has the flu, so def. prayers for those dealing with that. Hoping the rest of the fam doesn't get it. Good luck to your daughter in her job search!

Good morning Train Riders!!  I'm up and at em this morning.  Jeff is getting ready to head off to school, he's got an all day Physics class and lab so Saturdays are my quiet time again.  Already started with a protein shake, vits and a cup of Early Grey.  I've been doing lots of cappuccinos and flavored coffee lately and want to switch it up some so I can cut the calories.  Not going to weigh today, will wait a few to see if/when the scale decides to go back down again.

Not a lot on my schedule today.  I defrosted a 23lb turkey that I'll be cooking today.  Yes that's 23lbs for 2 people.  LOL, I'm going to do some serious freezing of meat to restock our freezer.  It's the first time I've cooked a turkey, so I'm hoping it will turn out good. 

This afternoon at 2 I'm heading over to Starbucks at Alma & Parker to hang with peeps for a while.  Decided I needed some time with friends as it feels like forever since I've seen people.  Need to go get my hair cut too, though I might wait till tomorrow and take Jeff to get his done too.  We're both getting a little shaggy and he definitely needs to look sharp for interviews.

Stay warm, make good choices and make it a great day!!

How did the turkey turn out? Are you ready for work Monday? I hope it goes well. Hope the Starbucks get together went well. Wishing we'd have one over here sometime soon, and that I'm not already booked to do stuff with kiddo. Could use some peep time.

Not sure on the turkey yet.  It's smelling great and has about an hour left to cook.  Crossing my fingers.  I'm soooooooo ready to get back to work.  If nothing else, it will keep me from obsessing about what Jeff is doing about finding a job.  Starbucks was great, had way more people show up than I thought would so I was perfect.  Would love to see you again soon.  I'll have to make it over the RNS sometime soon.

Good Morning OH Family!

I'm up early.... for me. Not 4am like others. lol could not sleep last night. It is 28 degrees this morning and cloudy. Nothing planned this weekend just going to Walmart and lunch with Rick. Think I'll jus****ch movies and be a bum the rest of the day. My son called last night he works at the VA hospital in Dallas and rode the train to work. When he was coming home last night he almost got jumped. Said about 5 guys started surrounding him and he lucked out the doors opened and he jumped out. I worry about even when he drives to work not in the best part of town, Makes me mad that there is not security riding the dart. A man got mugged and died a while back at the train station by the hospital.He said alot of the Dr's carry guns, but with him having Allie don't know that he wants to do that. Well I better at least get a shower and get the day going. Hope everyone gets a little R&R this weekend. Prayers for those looking for a job. Healing for those that are hurting healthwise and otherwise.

Your loved!

Good morning ALL,
I had hoped to get up slightly earlier today, but finally managed to get out of bed for real just a short bit ago.  I've got one calcium down and am enjoying my protein coffee now.

I'll be getting dressed soon to get meet up with my study group at 10.  I am meeting a girlfriend for pedis at 11:15 and then we'll probably grab some lunch.  I should be wrapping that up about 2 and I thought  I'd swing by and say hi to Debbie at Starbucks.

I am 1 1/2 pounds away from my first milestone--a 50 pound loss, so today I have got to "move to lose".  I'll spend the afternoon doing some step aerobics and/or Wii.

Enjoy your day!

Mornin!  I have been running around town like crazy.  My good friend from childhood lost her father, and I have been there for her this week, and will probably be doing something similar next week.  Getting laundry done for the week, and have an adult fun night planned with friends.  DS is at his birth Mom's house for the weekend.  I slept til 9:30 this mornin. Nice.  DH is out grilling chicken for the dish I am making to take tonight.  It's a pasta dish.  Baby bowtie pasta with grilled chicken, shrooms, olives, and alfredo.  Not very wls friendly, but yummy nonethe less.  I will prolly have a bite. 

Hope you all have a fantabulous weekend! 

Much love,

Jenn
