It's Saturday!!!!

Good Saturday morning to all our Hoosiers Losers and soon to be losers! I am up early this morning. It is just 20 to 5 and I am have been up for about an hour. I am getting up early now a days for some reason. I am not going to bed any earlier but I must be sleeping more soundly for some reason. I wake up refreshed and that is always a good thing. I hope that everyone had a wonderful restful sleep too. Bill isn't feeling to good right now. He has a terrible cold and so all of us women know that he is close to death. No one ever has a cold as bad as he does and that must be the same for all men. They can be such babies. I will never forget the time that he woke me up telling me that he knew he was dying and I asked him what was wrong and he told me that he was having such hot flashes. I told him that since it was the summer maybe he should take off his winter pajamas. Ella and I still laugh about the killer hot flashes. He sure couldn't be woman with hot flashes. I know that one for sure!! I have to go out to the church this morning. My girlfriends daughter is using the church fellowship hall for a bridal shower this afternoon. Her girlfriend is getting married in June and Katie is her maid of honor. I have the key and have to open it for her. I guess I am going back and locking it up too. That is later on this afternoon. Sometimes I feel like I live at the church and just come here on occaision.  Nothing much is happening here this week end. I think that we are going to stay close to home and just veg for the next couple of days. That isn't going to break my heart that's for sure. I like the week ends where we stay home and watch movies and nap in our recliners.  Jeri came over last night and we checked out the Excel program. Oh boy are we going to look like a couple of fools at the class on Tuesday. We couldn't figure out much of it. We did get words in some of the squares but that is what we figured out. It was really rather sad. I told Jeri I don't want to walk in looking like a hick from the region but I am afraid that is what we are going to do!! I need to go and get a book on this stuff. I am not even sure what I am taking it for. Jeri is the one who needs to learn it but I am taking the class too so that she doesn't go to South Bend by herself. Leave it to me to get myself into some predicaments.  I better get going. I hope that you all have a wonderful and blessed day today. Stay safe and we will meet you back here tomorrow, same place but not always the same time. Love and hugs to all.

OMG brenda. you scared the crap out of me, when you said he was close to death. LMAO That is so true... Yes i am up and I have been since freakin 415 am. You know life and this journey is about lessons learned.Well did I ever learn one this morning. Under NO cir****tances am I to eat beans after 7:00 at night. OMG I was dying...I thought Dr Mattar had came in the middle of the night and repumped all that gas back in to me. Holy Mosses!Not only GAS but KILLER gas. i though Terry was going to jump out the window. LMAO He is so sweet, rubbing my back while Nuclear war was brewing. 1word.. GASX strips ( ok 2 ) But they were good beans but NOt that good.  Terry is working again today. I turned my return to work release in yesterday for monday. Yeah i need to clean my freakin' carpets today. Can not stand it any longer and clean Bellas room. eeaakk! Don't worry my living room is like 10x10 and I have a fireplace that takes up about 3 feet so there is not that much carpet down stairs. Have a great day....Hugs and Kisses Shanna

Good morning all.  Not much planned here today except work.  I didn't get up early to go to the gym this morning, because I have to work at 9, but I am taking my change of clothes, and going after work.  I am really enjoying the time I get to spend in the gym.  It really makes me feel good!  I can see why the ones that have been working out for years say it is just as addicting as anything! I know Jen's wedding is 2 weeks from today, and I just found out that I have the day off, so.....if anyone else is planning on heading down our way for her wedding, I am free for the day!!!  Hope to see you for that! I had better get in the shower, and get ready for work, so have a wonderful day all! This is the edited part.  I just did the BMI Calculator, and this is what it said!  "You have a BMI of 29.9. This shows that you are moderately overweight. Your BMI is not high enough to qualify you for bariatric surgery."   Isn't that just the coolest thing!!!  My day is going to be better now! LOL

Good morning all! It's about 7:40 now, and I just finished breakfast. I made toast and scrambled eggs for the family. Nothing fancy, but they didn't have to make it, so they ate it up. Maggie got the last of the cinnamon sugar on her toast, so she was particularly happy with it. Today I have to work at Sears from 11-7:30. I don't think it will be too exciting. It is supposed to be busy though, which will be nice it if is. It helps the time pass more quickly when you have customers. Mike might have a job lead at Sears. He would work in a different area than me, but one of the other managers said she got his application and wants to talk with him. Keep him in your prayers for getting something soon. Tomorrow, we're getting up early again, and going to see Mikey for visiting. We got a short pass approved, and so we're going to take him out to lunch at the Chinese restaurant right there. I am happy to be seeing him tomorrow. I miss my little guy. I have been feeling kind of down lately. It seems like life's kind of miserable. Nothing seems much fun anymore.   I don't mean to be draggin others down though. So I hope you all have a good day.

Good Morning All,  Brenda, you always are so darn Sweet,  Shanna, such a dearheart, LaChelle.always thinking of others    Linda, what a great mom and friend   &   I wish all sunny wishes and bright smiles, Love Ya, Blessings & Hugs, Gail

Hi Everyone- How are things going today? I called Clairian several times yesturday about Robin- thanks Gail for posting about her surgery, you are such a sweety.I plan to get up there today and see her. Well---I am NOT going to be working at SEARS afterall. I went in last night and helped out for 3 hrs. and just knew it wasn't where I was suppose to be. This is a satallite store- appliances & lawn/garden/tools store, and your local guys hang out. I felt sorry for the mgr. he was working his tale off while the other guy socialized, and the delivery guys were out damaging stuff. My friend came in mad as all get out, and by the time we got to talk, I just knew she needed someone who could dedicate the time they need. I have too many "Irons in the fire"- graduations, birthdays, helping others,babies,church,Drs.etc, and by the time I looked at all of that I just felt it wouldn't be fair to ask them to hire me, then make exceptions for me.So, I guess it is definately time I hang up my hat as far as a job goes.  I am going to the Drs. on Tues. to get a check up and referral for a new Neurologist. The one I have has moved, and I have been having a few sharp pains/headaches lately.I have Trigiminal neuralga, and it is getting worse. My meds. help somewhat. Could be the damaged nerve  in my brain is dying off. Dana & I were looking forward to going camping Mothers day week, but it looks like he will have to work, so we aren't afterall.We may try to go to Raccoon Lake for a day or 2. We ARE going to Hope & Peter's over August 8-9for the OH campout- so come on everyone, join us!!They have this really neat house you can rent that has all the things from home, plus a real camping experience- for you families that don't "rough it" this is ideal!! Anyone doing anything special this weekend? I hope Mike gets a job Linda- give Mikey and Maggie a hug for me! LaChelle- try out the stair climber for me- I'd love to, just can't do that type of exercise- you are doing great! Brenda--glad to see your smiling face,I'm not usually an early bird, but today am,-now get a nap in if you need to!  Safe travels everyone, and have a great weekend! ((((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))))))) Ellen 

Good morning everyone! Tiffany & Jay are on their way over. Jay is going to help Bill with an outside project...and then I'm going to get him busy for awhile. Bill had these two huge flowerbeds put in for me last fall. They are built up so that the guy who mows the grass can't blow the clippings right into them. Anyway, I'm going to have Jay get the rest of the dirt in it & we'll probably run to WalMart or somewhere to get some good soil for the very top 6-10". Then I'll be treating it with Miracle Grow. I don't know what flowers I'm going to end up putting in there but I thought for now I'm going to use it to help establish my vegetable & herb plants a little bit better in a weed-free atmosphere. Once they get bigger & healthier, I'll move the veggies to the backyard before passing neighbors & kids can have a chance to wipe me out of all of their produce. I really do think my herb plants will be safe there. A few of them might be dumb enough to think you can smoke parsley but I doubt they do that more than once! LOL!!                  Well..I do hope everyone has an enjoyable Saturday! huggs! Sherri
