We've been rotating between the weight machines, treadmill, and lap pool. Then hitting the hot tub for 10 minutes to unwind.

Happy Hump Day Gang!! We got boiler 1 back online and hopefully it stays that way until the November outage. We have an authentic Mexican food truck coming today for lunch. I have a bunch of month end stuff to get done. Hopefully the programs don't act up.
I have to call to schedule my yearly eye exam and possibly run to Home Depot unless Karen goes instead. Not much else to do today.
QOTD: Can you smell the changing of the Seasons in the air? The other night when I took Meisha out for her last potty before going to sleep. I could smell the change in the air that crisp Fall goodness.
B: coffee and protein shake
L: Mexican food
D: grilled pork chops
Hitting the Y for some weight training with an instructor.
Have a great day everyone!!

Melody, what a beautiful piece of jewelry that is! You have skill and talent for bringing out the best in your materials.
Your poor foot! Have you had arthritis set in where the break was? Maybe that is why the changing weather makes it hurt again.
You were so thoughtful and kind to prepare so much food for that picnic, I bet it was all delicious. Since you never got thanked by the adults for all that loving effort I hope at least you got to bring all the leftovers home.
So sorry I missed participating Monday. And so very sorry you injured yourself over the weekend. Is it really bruised now? Even if it isn't I hope you have some Arnica gel on hand to help the deep muscle tissue heal.
QOTD: When I was a noob at the warehouse job my area was automotive and hardware. I stocked all the dusty, dirty, heavy stuff and I didn't wear work gloves then. I was bringing down a Craftsman large circular saw from the top shelf (on my ladder step cart), it slid out of my hands and landed straight on my face breaking the cheek bone right under my left eye. Had a black eye and it was tender there for months. Just had sinus surgery to repair the serpentine, flattened sinus that may or may not have been caused by the accident or was just genetic.
Hope you had fun at the Y tonight. Was it a class or just using the machines and then a jacuzzi? It's nice that you are getting good use out of it.
QOTD: Technically the first job that wasn't babysitting was at an A & W but at the end of the two week trial period I turned in my apron, food service was just not for me. Can't even remember what that first and last check was, pretty low undoubtedly.
B: Ho****er then my protein/collagen shake w/extra espresso powder.
L: not hungry
D: not hungry but I ate 3 oz of Amylu breakfast sausage links, 2 T G. Hughes sf bbq sauce, a slice of Kraft American cheese and half a cup of fat free cottage cheese.
Hubby was away from the house so I bopped around to my heart's content. Worked in the garden some, grabbed up my collection of 2015 opaque tights and suck-in cami's and did a big hand wash load in hopes I'll be able to fit into them soon. Rearranged my closet some to remove more of the 3x's and bring the xl's to the front, ironed fabrics waiting to be sewn, stacked t-shirts to be cut smaller, picked apart some of the nice men's shirts I thrifted to use as garment fabric and wondered why the best quality fabrics are in men's clothing? All the women's clothes I've thrifted have to be brought home (after washing in ho****er) and fuzz-shaved. Knit fabric quality has taken a nose dive.
New First World problem: there are no places to buy buttons in any color other than black, white, red, metallic or rhinestone locally. The best buttons I've found are online from the UK. And how in the world can you color-match when computers present colors so strangely?
See you next month!

Good Tuesday Morning Gang!! We started washing boiler 1 to get it fixed. I've got to pick up pizza for lunch for the guys. I've got a new hire from the Bridgeport plant coming today so I can get him started with things since the ops. specialist is on vacation down there. I don't think there is much else going on.
QOTD: What was your first job? At 13 I worked as a dishwasher at a local restaurant. Worked for almost 4 years washing dishes at $4 and hour cash. Not all that bad back in the late 80's.
B: coffee and protein shake
L: pizza
D: roasted chicken
Hitting the Y tonight.
Have a great day everyone!!

I'm so sorry to hear that, we were supposed to have a meet up in Portland soon. She cancelled due to her fear of falling/ balance issues. I'm so sorry I didn't get to meet her. She was always so supportive and kind.

Good mornin Jennifer and the few others *****ad.
it wasn't the best of weekends. It has been proven yet again that my brother and his wife are the most ungrateful bunch ever. We had a picnic. It was my nephews b-day party. They let him eat a piece of pizza and snacks around 11:30 and the picnic was at 12:30. So he ate nothing. He did have a piece of the cookie cake but that was it. We spent time and money on all of it. Had to carry everything to the picnic table from the car because they are never on time to help with that. He wouldn't touch the honey bun cake. My SIL wouldn't eat any of the desserts. Barely ate the food either. The only thank you we got was from the kids. Two grown ass adults that couldn't even say thanks or kiss my ass. Nothing. I needed to get that off my chest!
Today we need to run to the county clerk and go drop off a letter at the post office. Other than that it's a total unknown.
QOTD: I dropped a huge frozen brisket on my foot, breaking it. I think I was 18 or so. No insurance to do anything about it. Still reminded of it every time the weather changes.
B: eggs, sausage and cheese with coffee of course
L: burrito
D: veggie lasagna
A piece I made this weekend.
Good Monday Morning menuers. The weekend was pretty good. Got some stuff done outside and went to watch Mason's football game on Saturday. His team won. We could tell the coaches are teaching them more stuff. Mason blocked a couple of times and got a touchdown.
I got sucked in the Packers vs. Cowboys game last night and stayed up to watch the entire game. Running on fumes right now. Pulled into work this morning and thought the plant was on fire there was smoke billowing out of the boiler house. Come to find out boiler 1 is plugged bad we are trying to get the water wash crew out to clean it. They have the office doors open as it stinks in here big time. I'm actually wearing a mask it smells so bad. I should have called out today.
QOTD: What's the dumbest way you hurt yourself? I was playing with the dog Saturday and somehow slipped on I think a rock. My right leg went sliding forward and I heard a pop. From my butt cheek to the back of my knee my muscle hurts. It was horrible Saturday to the point trying to sit on anything was not good. It feels better today, but I have to be careful of how I move or I get a Charlie horse in my thigh.
B: Coffee and protein shake
L: bok choy soup
D: hamburger and salad
Have a great day everyone!!

QOTD: Halloween candy can sometimes do me in, but my biggest thing is comfort foods like shepherds pie, chicken and dumplings, stuff like that. I love to cook and in the Fall nothing is better than having a big pot of beef stew going or a boiled dinner and baking a fresh loaf of bread to go with them.
