    Good morning,

    Blue moon tonight. My coworker across from me had people hanging up on her. I told her it was a full moon tonight. I was also not surprised the way she talks to them. She is not in my department and is moving her stuff home Friday to work from home. I will not have to be bothered by her endless talking to the lady near her. Quiet as a morgue on Tuesday - we do get Monday off.

    I will make the makings for my salads tonight for the next 2 lunches. Not complicated.

    It is also hair washing night, I have a zoom meeting tomorrow and it is important to not look too grungy.

    Missy - pets are expensive but so are people. Give me a pet anytime!!

    Lana glad your knee is feeling better.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Wow - it's the last day of August ๐Ÿ’ซ

    Strange dreams woke me up last night, and I couldn't get back to sleep, so I am up for a while at least.
    That'll be me snoring in the corner in the afternoon.....

    There's been rain from the hurricane here, so not able to see the blue moon *sob*.

    Sara - have a good meeting today!

    Happy Thursday! (Itโ€™s Thursday right?)

    Woke up this morning. Didnโ€™t sleep very well. Getting ready for work and thought it was Mondayโ€ฆwas pleasantly happy that itโ€™s Friday Eve.

    Sara- yes much rather spend my money and time on my furbabies that give unconditional love than some guy. Moon was very pretty this morning and very bright.

    Lana- must be do to the Blue moon. But all this talk about the Blue Moon is having me want a Blue Moon Beer. Havenโ€™t had one of those in years.

    Have a great day everyone!

    Good evening,

    Work was strange. I got to work the things that the clinics chose not to work in the area I do the hospital registration. Gee you think someone wont notice stuff from a year ago???? Long story short I dont want to meet these people from the clinics.....

    Tomorrow is Friday and that is a wonderful thing. I might get more Korean food for this weekend.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Happy September All~~

    Isn't it nice to not have to go back to school?? (especially Missy!)

    Sara - Yes, things sound strange!
    ....and Korean food sounds intriguing ๐Ÿ˜‹

    I could see the moon last night up through the window. Really pretty!

    * โ›ฑ๏ธ Looking forward to Friday happy hour at the Cabana Club ๐ŸŒด*

    Iโ€™m ready for September! Yes. Will be so nice for a break!!! Halfway done with my final project. Still have to make one discussion post and 2 responses but canโ€™t do that part until next week.

    Moon has been so pretty. Makes the 4:30 am wake up not as bad.

    Beautiful day here where Iโ€™m at and turned off the AC yay! Have to write out my goals still and post them later. But I think tracking daily is a must, and say no to junk food.

    Good evening, Happy Friday,

    Sleep after work was so welcome.

    Boss is running around in circles, making comments and it is confusing.

    But today is Friday and that is a good thing.

    Missy - owning what we eat and having to "look at it" by posting is also validating how well you are doing. Keep up the good work.

    Our temps for now are cooler and may involve blankets. For now I am grateful. Good night to dance with the cboys and let loose.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Happy Saturday Yโ€™all!

    Sara - so true.

    Can I say that Iโ€™m exhausted! Went to my final WW meeting for now, down 1.5 pounds! Did Zumba last night and Zumba this morning. It had been at least a year before I had gone to a Zumba class! And I trimmed a Yew tree that is huge in my backyard that the huskies like to hide in and probably get themselves into trouble.

    Hereโ€™s the before for one of the 2 trees.

    Hereโ€™s the clean up:

    And hereโ€™s the after-need a chainsaw to really finish it. But I donโ€™t trust myself with one of those lol

    Hi all~~

    Not feeling great yesterday over to today. I ran some errands today, but my bones hurt.
    I don't have any covid tests--I'm thinking of hitting the pharmacy tomorrow. We'll see.

    See y'all tomorrow~

    Good evening,

    Hair cut -the "flapping" is gone for awhile. Woke up in a brain haze. Got a couple more hours sleep and that did it.

    Considering I wanted to sleep all day - that I got 4k in steps and movement is pretty good.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Good evening,

    Got my 5k wandering around Wally World. Got some decorations for work and all the rest of the trivia contest prizes.

    Got pissed at some church members and their dirty looks and snarky remarks. I left early and went shopping. Cant let them get to me, but this is an old congregation and set in their ways.

    Otherwise lovely Fall weather for the next week.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Sara- good way to get your steps in! Sorry to hear about your fellow church members. Enjoy the fall weather. Itโ€™s 80s/90s this week where Iโ€™m at.

    Well I gave the oddball a chance. Yeah no second date. It was definitely an awkward time. He seems like a nice guy just not for me. I really am looking for that old fashioned gentleman who holds doors, pays at least for the first date or at least offer to pay. Conversation was kinda dry. Yeah onto the next oneโ€ฆwait there isnโ€™t a next one oops. ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ

    Good evening,

    Missy, this was one of your online "oddballs"? Sorry it didnt go well. The old fashioned guy is there somewhere.

    Your before and after bush pictures are dramatic, poor dog looking like "hey I used to hide here!!".

    Slept a lot today. Cleaned annoying areas of my place. Made a bracelet for a church lady. Reading a book about a your Hawaiian girl who has leprosy.

    Back to the salt mine. At least I have some meals set up. I am feeling lazy at the moment, so we shall see what is for lunch tomorrow.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Hey all~~

    Ugh - I have been off whack for a few days. Heading towards normal now.

    Sara - what in the world is wrong with the church people? Sheesh.

    Missy - yes, what a dramatic change indeed in your yard! Hard work, I know, especially getting it reduced to fit in the yard waste containers.
    Oh, and sorry to hear about the dull dude. Keep looking ๐Ÿ˜

    I hope that you both have a decent day~

    Good evening,

    I hope the weather we are having comes east as it is worth waiting for, but it would also be on the way.

    It was so cold in the lunch room, I got coffee after lunch to help warm up. Who is in charge of the temps in the building?

    Yes, I am a little cranky. With changing air temp and winds come sinus congestion. So yes I am cranky. I will watch something I enjoy or will learn something and hopefully cranky will "lessen".

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Good Morning!

    Lana- thank you! It was a workout for sure. I had already done a Zumba workout. The clean up was โ€œfunโ€. Brought it almost all of it to the curb for trash day. Still have a bunch that wouldnโ€™t fit. Will have to put it in next weeks trash. Yeah I think itโ€™s this week with being off. Wish i could have taken the week off. Computer systems have been not cooperating.

    Sara- yes this changing temps going back and forth are urgh. And I would like to know the same. Office is always an ice box. Need a parka and down comforter to be comfortable.

    Have a great day! Check in later!

    Good evening,

    I was tired at work and really surprised I did not fall asleep. When you do the same thing-ish 200 times a day it can get a little brain boring.

    Decorated the area with what silk Fall leaves I have. I am not interested in buying anything more, so I shall see how else I can decorate.

    6k again- those annoying laps I do at work add up and get me there. I say annoying because it is repetitious but I need to think of making new laps....

    Good morning everybody ๐ŸŒผ

    Today the new mattress for downstairs guest room is being delivered.
    I got it from Mattress Warehouse, and I am very impressed by them-- they provide a way to track the delivery!
    They provide the delivery window, tell me I am number 7, tell me that they are currently on number 2, then provide an estimated update on the delivery window, along with color photos of the delivery team. Isn't this amazing?
    I hope that other companies will provide this detail in the near future.

    Good evening,

    Strange meeting at work. Phone call to coworker after work, I am not the only one who thinks so.

    Mattress Warehouse good company and very happy with them. They got bought out here in CA. Sadly.

    One of my smoke detectors is deciding to beep every so often. It is on the ceiling and I am short. Growl.

    Happy Friday everybody!

    Sara - The meeting sounded ominous. Is it unusual to have such meetings? I'm guessing yes, because you don't mention them. Hmmm..... ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ•ต๏ธ
    Maybe the maintenance man can come and change the smoke detector battery? Hope so. Don't be getting up on any ladders or chairs and try to do it yourself ๐Ÿฉท

    Good evening,

    My neighbor and her 4 step ladder (mine is only 2)- came and we got down the smoke detector that had a battery. It was quiet all night. So I gave her one of my Lil Debbie bars I was gifted yesterday - share the guilt.

    We have meetings every month, but this week's was one of the weirder ones.

    TGIF, time to dance off the frustration of the week and have fun.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Happy Saturday All!

    Busy morning with groomers, errands and going to my nieces first ever soccer game. Sheโ€™s 3 so itโ€™s more watching a bunch of kids run around a field or away from field. It was cute. My niece was a bit shy or just hungry and wanted a nap. It was almost noontime for the game and most kids were having meltdowns or getting sick. Was very hot and humid.

    Relaxing now, going to read a book in a few. Class is over. I think I can assume I got an A since I got an A on everything. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

    Missy - Congrats on classes being over for a while โˆš
    Your niece's soccer game must have been adorable. Hopefully the next one will be at a better, cooler time.

    It is very spooky and foggy outside this morning..... hmmm....

    Good afternoon,

    My 93 year old friend from church has covid. I went by to drop things off - with mask on - her new dog wanted to see me and broke out - so I had to sheepdog the dog back into the front door.

    Got over 4k yesterday (2 stores) not sure about today.

    Missy - good to read about something completely different from work/classes. Rinse out the brain and give it a Fall cleaning.

    Is tomorrow already Monday? wowie

    Wishing all a good day. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Good morning everybody~~

    I'm waiting for the plumbers to come to work on an outside project for a couple of days. They are scheduled to come today, but I wasn't told what time. I forgot to ask. Duh.

    Sara - I hope that your 93 year old friend isn't hit too badly. Hopefully she is fully vaccinated.
    Cool that she has a doggie โœ…

    I'd better eat some breakfast before these people arrive....

    Good evening,

    Called my 93 year old friend after I got home. A couple days of rest has helped her and she hates to sit still so she is anxious to get out again, but is taking care.

    Lana do you have palm trees? Those roots get into everything and are horrible on plumbing. I hope the guys showed up.

    Post nasal drip has eluded me because of masks, but not lately. I have a glass of herb tea to help.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Good evening,

    One cup of tea today and got through my boring work. A lot of sugar helped......

    Laundry going - why not? Always needs to get done.

    Got my 6k, got my decoration at work almost done. Reason to celebrate and relax.

    Here we are at the middle of the week....

    Sara - Good for you on getting your work area decorated for the autumn. It's good to take care of yourself and make your surroundings uplifting. ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿ

    I've decided to declutter my kitchen some today. The dang plumbers are here working outside all day, so I am a prisoner in my own home. Ha! Might as well make things look less hillbilly.
    I don't have a garage, basement, or storage shed, so all of those ugly things that one would put in a garage are in the house. Gah.
