Friday WLS EXPRESS-everyone check in please

GOOD MORNING! Its Friday-woo hoo. I've noticed that our train ridership has gone WAY down. I'm trying to figure out why. Any input?

SO please check in today-let us know how you're doing, what you are succeeding at and struggling with. I miss hearing from everyone on the train.

ALL ABOARD!!!

Its going to be a busy busy day today. Chris's psychiatrist in Dallas was the head of the bipolar clinic at UT Southwestern. Well, she recently moved to Houston to start a bipolar clinic at UT Houston. We trust her implicitly and he really likes her. I looked around and I just couldn't find anyone that compared to her. So, we are going to stick with her. We'll be leaving soon to drive to Missouri City at a clinic she works at on Friday's. Our appointment is at 1:30pm and then we'll drive back. Since he only goes a few times a year to see her, we're going to give this a try. Since I telecommute on Friday's, I'll be on my laptop working on reports while Bryan drives.

I'm doing much better on food choices lately, but struggle with liquids. I don't like hot drinks but its cold so I don't feel like drinking cold ones. I'm working on it though.

I hope everyone has a great day today!!!

Sorry that I havent been riding the train this year...but with tax season kicking my butt...I try to be at the office by 7 or 730 each morning eastern...this way I get my extra hours in when it is really quite in the office...no phones ringing mostly.  Wishing these next two months would fly by, but they are going to be long and grueling...at least the next few days will be wonderful, as Don is coming here for Valentine's Day. 

All tax folks on the board are excused- because I know you're super busy! lol. I'm so glad Don is coming to see you for Valentines- how great! Take care!

I haven’t been on the boards much at all for quite a while. Lots of new faces here. I’m also glad that it’s Friday. These 12 hr shifts are kickin my butt!! BUT….I love my job and I’m grateful to have it. Not much planned this weekend. Just time with my hubby, who has been out of town all week. Hopeyou all enjoy your weekend. Take care, Cynda

Hi Cynda! Thanks for hopping on this morning!!

Good morning Alissa.  Safe travels for your Houston visit today.

I think train ridership has gone done because people just aren't checking in as often and I know it gets denied and I've  been one that has denied it, but many of us keep up on Facebook and I know that has had an impact.  The train used to be our way to visit and keep up and now it's FB.  I know people aren't going to convert back, so we'll just have to keep it as it is. 

I'll try to keep posting when I have time in the mornings!

Karla I agree that FB plays a part in it. But I'm used to Meggie, Gina, and Liz, for example, to post and I've not seen them in a while. Oh well, I'm super appreciative of the ones that do post! Thanks!

I ride the train everyday! Some days I just don;t have anything to say! I know that is shocking to yall!  I comment where I have something to add or if I am "in a mood"!!

Meggie

Nature of my job I don't FB and sometimes routine day to day is moundane to mention.  Today is a bit of an exception.  Go to my PCP this morning, do a few stops on the fly and haul buns to see Norma!
