How do I feel about my day? It's really weird not having my father in law and his g/f here....it was really sad to watch them leave, everyone was in tears...Wish they didn't have to live so far away.

We also walked around target for a while today and got Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory on Blue Ray, it was on tv, it's my hubby's favorite movie, and I'm like "how do we not own this?!" It was on sale at Target for 7 bux! Wooo! While I was there I saw like every single Disney movie I want on Blue Ray (I

How do I feel about my day? Welp back to work after being on vacation. Sad day at work, had a mother of a past client call and let us know she found her son dead this morning :-( Just awful. Nature of the beast, but it still sucks...18 years old, just too young. At least she felt comfortable and connected to us enough to call for us to know before it hits the paper. There's been a lo of loss this year compared to years past... Then I go shopping with my mother and she tells me her friend's dog was killed by her friend's daughter's dog...just terrible!! Dog just SNAPPED and was off a leash and attacked. So message for tonight, pray for those struggling with addiction, and always leash your pets!0 -

Lol! I went to go see Brave with hubby before he deployed. I didnt cry. The only disney movie to make me cry was UP! Now that was so sad cuz made me think of when hubby and I get old. He cried too by the way. He wont admit it now though. :P Oh and forgot to say UP is my fav movie of all time! :P hehe0 -

Did I take my vitamin? Yes
How do I feel about my day? I am feeling a bit defeated by my blood pressure. Its one of the reasons I started losing weight in the first place, and yet its the one thing that keeps me from exercising more. My boyfriend advised its better to take babysteps and just walk more than end up in the ER again though. He is, of course, right. Its just a bit frustrating. But at least my food is not holding me back, and I have lots of days off coming up to plan meals, and cook cook cook!0 -

It snowed today (only a inch or so) but it was our first snow of the year and the boyfriend took me out for breakfast, and then for hot coco. I got the tub recaulked, so hopefully no more leaks in the living room. And then, on top of all the Thanksgiving cooking, I made White Zinfandel Chicken and couscous from scratch too! I just feel like so much was accomplished today.0 -

Went black Friday shopping with hubby and the babe and we got some things, mostly Christmas decorations because we've been having a lot of our old ones break. Came home and my husband and I spent probably most than a 1/2 hour laughing so hard at clips of video game glitches. I was laughing so hard I was crying and could barely breath!!
