I posted some more humor this morning
Ha! That was my favorite too.
Yes, rain overnight and tomorrow.
Hi Vix
Thanks for the feedbackJo, good that you could laugh. Everyone deserves a good rant now and then. Glad you are feeling better.
I'm glad I saw the dietician. I can start adding a new food every day now. That is such a relief. It would have been really hard to eat at restaurants for a week if I couldn't do that. I'm really happy about adding lettuce back in....at least I can order a salad (without dressing).
So true, You never know what is in the restaurant salad dressings, so better safe than sorry
FWIW I have been eating my salads plain since starting NS.Good morning. Very foggy here. Start PT this a.m. Then painting class.
Have a great day.
No fog that I could see, just a dark, dreary, wet and windy morning and supposed to go downhill from that later on
Good Luck with the PT and enjoy the Painting Class

Hi JoanneJoanne3366 wrote: »Good afternoon;
One of my co workers had to have emergency surgery yesterday and will be out for 6 weeks.
Another co worker left last week because of scheduling with his other job. The assistant manager of our dept. got sent to work in another store this week. As I was talking to the Store Manager today he was telling me about all the new additional things that he wants done in the dept. I just laughed at him and said we need more people.
His new thing is having chocolate dipped strawberries for the weekends and fruit infused water. All of these things are time consuming. I have a hard enough time getting my workers to keep up with the cut fruit and veggies. Ok, rant over, I feel better now.
Vix-good luck with the dietitian.
Irene-I am feeling fine, my sore throat is gone. Did you get your disposal fixed today.
Roger-love the fails. Good job on avoiding temptation yesterday.
Have a good evening.
I guess it had to be a serious problem to be out for six weeks.
I used to worry about getting everything management wanted done, then I had an epiphany moment and decided what I can do I will and what I can not won't get done by me. I did prioritize of course and that decision made things much less stressful
I'm glad to hear Your sore throat is better
Thanks for the kind words, I only reposted from elsewhere. I loved the Pork products being touted for Passover and other holidays, It make You wonder who or what they are hiring.
Have a good day

I called the Dr and told them I was still having problems he wants me to stay out of work for another 2 weeks I am not seeing any improvements I am ok if I don't have to use the steps but I can't go threw life this way hopefully it starts to get better.0

T-storms here now, going to shut down the computer for a while.0

Good afternoon;
It has been raining most of the day.
Irene-I am glad you got your disposal fixed. Do you think going back to PT would help your knee?
Vix-Yay for getting to eat new foods. Do you have to keep a journal of what you eat and how it affects you?
Today I got hit with, starting next week you have cashier training. When I first applied for
this job, I told them I would do anything but cashier, so today I am not a happy camper.

Hi Jo, yes I do have to keep track...I'm using MFP and the note box at the bottom of the food page. I also have a couple of papers that I'm keeping track of new foods/supplements added
with the dates. You can print out reports from MFP by dates.
Sorry about your work. Hopefully you won't have to do cashier work all the time. Hugs.0 -
good morning,well it rained all day so I never got to plant grass maybe next week I can,we have no grass in the back I guess I am glad it is sand and not mud.But I do wipe her paws as soon as she its the patio door plus I have throw rugs at the door just in case I miss a paw.not much planned today need to return a dog bowl I bought at pet smart .

Hi Irene
Glad to hear it was fixable
On the NYC stations news yesterday they mention that Amazon was hiring people to do customer support and work from home. It was not clear if they were separate positions or what. Maybe You could ask about working from home ?IreneMurman wrote: »good morning,well it rained all day so I never got to plant grass maybe next week I can,we have no grass in the back I guess I am glad it is sand and not mud.But I do wipe her paws as soon as she its the patio door plus I have throw rugs at the door just in case I miss a paw.not much planned today need to return a dog bowl I bought at pet smart .

T-storms here now, going to shut down the computer for a while.
Hi Vix
When My brother heard the Thunderstorms approaching he shut down too.
I always suggest also turning off the Power strip that everything is connected to since in the computer and printers their power supplies are always connected and working so that pressing the low voltage power switch can turn them on. I replaced many a dead power supply after thunderstorms when I worked in computer repair.Hi Jo, yes I do have to keep track...I'm using MFP and the note box at the bottom of the food page.

I find that tracking helps

Hi Joanne
I would not like Cashier either. In my case if I keep moving around my knees are fine, however if I have to stand still for a while my knees get stiff and painful.
Did You remind them about what You had told them?
Good Luck

Good morning. Went to zumba this morning. I will have my first Pt session this afternoon. Yesterday was just an evaluation.
Irene, I'm sure a few days wait on the grass won't hurt. Lucky that you didn't put it down too soon where it would wash out.
Roger...I always pull the plug on my computer. Should probably do the TVs too, but I don't.? ?Have a great day, everyone.0 -
Good afternoon;
Irene-It is probably a good thing that you didn't put down grass seed. It would have all washed away.
Roger- The other day I had to blow up some balloons for a customer. He started to hand me money for the balloons. I told him he had to pay for them at the cashier in the front of the store, because I didn't have a cash register. He then asked me how he was going to pay and hold the balloons at the same time. I told him he could go and pay and then come back and get the balloons. I wonder how he was able to hold the balloons and open his car door.
I found a dime today.
I don't think I will have to do cashier training next week. They are sending me to work in another store, luckily this one is only 15 mins. away from my house.
I found 10cents today walking to my car.
Have a great evening.

Jo, glad you don't have to do the cashier training and that you will be at a store closer to home. It's funny the way some people's minds work!

good morning, well this morning we have mulch being delivered my work is cut out for me I am having it delivered because I need a lot and if I was going to buy by bags it would of cost so much I am getting 1 load which covers 100 yards I think that should do it.I am getting the red mulch I like how that looks.The last time mulch was put down was 4 years ago before our renters moved in they were great renters just not people who liked working in the yard. Jo glad you don't need to do the cashier training and the other store sounds nice hope you enjoy yourself Roger I am thinking also that I might need pt again I know it still hurts and just staying off it isn't helping. Vix how did your pt go?0

Good morning.
Wishing you a good day at work, Jo.
Irene, don't overdo it in the yard!
I just had one Pt session and will resume when I get back from vacation. Mostly I have a few exercises to work on my core for now (to support the spine), and practicing to relax my shoulders and rib cage.
Looks like a beautiful day so far. Hope Roger is enjoying his walk.
Have a great day, everyone. 0 -
Hi

Hi Vix
I'm lazy I just use a power strip that all the computer things plug into so I can turn them all off with one switch. I also turn it off every time I finish using it. I went into the BIOS setup and have the computer set so that when I turn the power strip on it comes without needing to press the power button. I have two computers set that way. The Basement one I use mostly for working on video and this All-In-One I am on right now.Jo, glad you don't have to do the cashier training and that you will be at a store closer to home. It's funny the way some people's minds work!

That is a good question, unless he has one of those cars that open the door when You swipe Your foot under it. I see them on TV commercials, To me that would be a completely useless feature
Common sense, Problem Solving and Logic are not taught these days.
I hope the nearer store is also a nicer store.

Hi Irene
We had a load of Mulch and a load of topsoil delivered two years ago. It was interesting since I not thought about it, However the dump truck had two compartments so they could dump the topsoil and then in a different pile the mulch.
Now that my Brother has a F150 picking things up for the yard will be easier than making multiple trips in the car.
Good Luck with Your knee, Don't overdo it.

Good morning.
Sunny and chilly here, though it's supposed to get up to 68 later. Nothing planned for today, but should probably start getting ready for our trip.

Hi
I was out walking today and did 7.2K steps. The temperature this morning was 43 degrees on the weather forecast vs 32 on the front porch
Considering the morning temperature and the frost I passed by it is forecast to be in the 60s today!
The brook I walked past is running somewhat high, however it is lower today than yesterday.
I posted this here since I am currently listening to Isaac Asimov's Rendezvous with Rama while walking.
Have a Super Sunday

Hi Vix
It was a little bit beyond chilly this morning at 6:15 when I went out the door. Blue Sky so I expect a rapid warming today.
I have already finished my only planned activity for today, Walking IOWs.
Have a Nice Palm Sunday

Good afternoon;
It was sunny and warm today. My daughter and I went into Boston to the Spring Festival.
It was at the Seaport Trade Center. Artists come to sell their wares. I bought an outdoor thermometer and my daughter bought a piece of wall art made out of a circular saw blade.
It was all carved out depicting the tree of life. We walked 10.6 miles. My feet are a little tired.
Vix-Have a great time on vacation.
Irene-I don't go to the other store until Wednesday.
Roger-I wonder how much they were selling the computer for at that time?
Have a good afternoon.

It is warming up nicely today too.
We are heading into a week where their will be a day with a high of 80, not that 80 is near a record. According to the weather forecast I saw before I headed out for my walk the Record high is 87 Degrees for the same date.
