    Good afternoon all. Yes time is going by fast. May is just about over. Hard to believe. We did get a thunder storm and rain last night but nothing terrible. The girls power is back on but still stormy on and off. East Texas gets hit hard.
    Set new goals for June although starting to work on them today. Mainly because of the other group I am in the weekly challenge starts Wednesday. Very happy with today's work out

    @Kurtize, Is your DD okay with the tornados? I get EEEKKKK when my oldest brother is under one (Kansas outside of Wichita, Kansas). He does miss blizzards we totally agree this is so much easier!! The catatract surgery was so easy. It was sort of neat, I knew they were removing them, and I could tell slightly because of the hazey cloudiness as he went back and forth over my eye, but I could not feel it. That was kinda neat!! BUT within 24 hours the haziness cleared and for the FIRST EVER IN MY LIFE I did NOT need glasses. I think that lasted 3 or 4 weeks. I never thought that would of been possible!! But it was, it was 3 years ago, and you were on the team. You may remember my excitement! Or was it 2 years ago? WOW NICE WORKOUT Joyce on Weds!! WOOHOO!! TY TY TY TY from PS4L!!
    @Aalley5 are you driving? From where? Flying is faster (usually LOL NOT ALWAYS!) Please be super careful hon. I agree tornados are doing so much destruction. WOW! How much mankind has ruined the earth and continue to do so. Great quote and so true!! The small changes last!
    @Tabatha_Cain , if she removes you, she does. We can't control what others do, we can only control our own reactions. Be smooth and yes, see if you can start easly chances are you can. I love kayaking, even as an experienced person I ALWAYS wear my life jacket!! ALWAYS because all it takes is a boat going so fast and to fast to know me over!! Also it's a great idea, really ti's a MUST to on purpose flip it and upright it so you know you can get out and be okay. to be safe. It was the first thing we learned back as a kid. That helped me on the Saco river here in Maine. The water was cold, hit an area that's normally not rapids, but we had a lot of rain. So it WAS!!! I was fine and expected it, but still it was great to know I could handle that!! At that time they were NOT allowing those without much experience to be on the river, and I was on my own they didn't want me to until I explained my experience, then they were okay with it. I am so happy they were super cautious!!
    @patti241, HI Patti!! GOOD Day!! is today a cloudy or rainy day? It's supposed to be cloudy here all day Thurs. Hehehehehe I think I'll do an INDOORS DAY!! My steps are great this week, way better than they had been, I MAY take a partial rest day!! LOL I SAY that we both know that's not likely!
    @Tabatha_Cain, @Kurtize and likely @Aalley5 know I'll be stepping down soon as both an OAL and Captain of the PS4L team. LOL Tabatha, do you all think you can beat us after I do? I DOUBT IT!!! BUT you can ALL TRY!!! @Kurtize is our new Passenger Service Agent as of the break. I AM remaining on the PS4L team, but as a regular member. We know my health has gotten worse, tomorrow (Thurs) I see the cardiologist and I am struggling since Covid at the end of March, into April as I finally recovered, I had surgery which took another toll on my breathing also, my body isn't recovering as I wish. The surgery (Parathyroid) though has given me more energy!! WOOHOO on that it's just the breathing.

    @Tabatha_Cain - That's awesome you are learning to kayak! I've done it several times but the misquote make me want to jump in the water! I haven't gone since. It was fun watching the kids.
    @Dianedoessmiles1 - We fly and then drive about 6 hours. It's not bad.
    Have a restful evening!

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Thursday and it is going to be a great day. I am going to have a productive day at work. I am excited to go to work today just because I want to be able to help my clients one last time. I don't think I will be able to help them much anymore. I am pretty nervous about the meeting with my boss this morning. I requested that we not meet, but she wants to meet. I am not sure what I should say. I mean should I tell her that no one in the office feels they are being supported and that we feel she would rather be at other locations than here because she is always locked in her office and she jets out as soon as she possibly can. Like today she is suppose to split her time between our office and another office in another city. She only has 3 offices to manage. She should be at all 3 offices twice a week. That is how it should go and we barely see her for 1 whole day once a week.

    @Kurtize - That is good that their power is back on. Time is going by super fast.
    @Dianedoessmiles1 - That is cool. I don't think I would ever kayak alone. That would be scary. I think if I flipped Joe would help me. I do think it is a good idea to learn how to handle the kayak when it flips. I do hope you get better and improve. We will definitely be working hard to kick your butts. LOL
    @aalley5 - I wish I had learned to kayak when I was younger. Then I could have taught my children. We would have had so much fun when they were growing up.

    Well I hope you all have a wonderful Thursday.

    @Tabatha_Cain , BEEN Thinking of you through parts of the day. How did it go? Did you end up talking with the boss? LOLOL I did giggle that FF will be kicking our butts!! LOL THat only urges us to work harder!! LOL my leaders are very well trained!! I'll still WOOHOOing the team as a regular member, not as much, but after all of these years they know what to do. I'd been sick 2 times this challenge that the other leaders had to take over for me, they did AWESOME!! LOL KICK US GAL FRIEND!! We'll pick it up! I'll be picking up my steps I am hoping! BRW We simply ADORE Fit Force! We truly do, and even sit on the sideline after landing URGING YOU ON! We all teams, but we know Fit Force ,, forces to work hardah.
    @Patti241, Morning, well almost evening Patti!! YUMMY I have country style spare ribs in the oven!! They've only been cooking at 300 for 30 mins another 1 hr and 25 mins I'll be eating 1 of them, maybe 2, but likely one with a scrunchous weird potatoe. Cut it 1/4 from the bottom with slits all the way across, ,,,brush it lightly with melted butter and garlic. Put it in the oven for a h half hour, take it out, brush it lightly again and back in for another half hour. LOOKS AWESOME!!

    Heres the video for those who wish to try something different.

    We accomplished a lot! I'll post my card on my FB page, Alice's paperdolls. It's awesome!

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Friday and it is going to be a great day. I am super happy with the meeting I had with my boss even though she really tried to sweeten the deal with me leaving. She did say that since I gave my two week notice that I am able to come back and she would make sure it happens if I chose to come back because the other job is not what I wanted. I feel like I am going to be doing well over there and it will be great.

    @Dianedoessmiles1 - I did meet with my boss. She was pretty cool about everything. She did say if it doesn't work out there then I can definitely come back since I gave my 2 week notice. It is nice the friendly competition we have going on. It is nice to know your team has your back with the leading stuff.
    @aalley5 - I remember paper dolls from the 80's. Those were pretty cool.

    Well I hope you all have a wonderful Friday.

    @Tabatha_Cain that's so awesome your boss was/is actually very supportive of you! To bad lolol that wasn't shown by the company you may of stayed. More $$$ less stress. Keep the employees happy and they stay until retirement. Just went to the local laundry Matt. It's just easier to do the blankets all day once and it's just down the road. Nice to have that done!
    @Patti241, Hi Patti! Gorgeous day here ! It'll hit 72, at night 57 perfect for the windows open.

    Happy Friday. Kayla went for her check up, clean bill of health, does need a teeth cleaning. We then went shopping. David's husband is in the hospital again, he has low potassium, rapid breathing and low blood pressure. He has been ill for about 15 months and has lost 50 lbs. It started with what they later learned was intestinal infection. Took them months to figure that out, why I have no idea. He also had diarrhea way too often. He is 5'8" and right now weighs 115 lbs. He was out of the hospital and doing well and even gained 7 lbs. Then last night everything went bad again. Not much else is new. They are still having bad weather where my daughter and grand daughter live. We had rain last night but that was it and today is Sunny and 81. Well have a great rest of the day. Hugs and blessings.

    It was a busy day, plus rain and cold. Visited family and friends most of the day. Took my rest day since its all ready time for bed! My NSV was not making bad food choices and I stuck to my portion sizes. :)
    @Tabatha_Cain - lol, yep, I never could cut out paperdolls very well. I came up with the name Paperdolls for my card making group. We stamp, color and use die cuts to make paper cards. The link goes to my pinterest

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you all are doing well this morning. Today is Saturday and it is going to be a busy day today. I have a lot to get done. Joe and I are going to be replanting in the garden this morning as some of our plants did not make it. Probably our doing. We are new at this so it is going to take some work. We are also going to be doing some doordash. I think that is a good idea. We need to get a bit of extra money.

    @Dianedoessmiles1 - Exactly. I might have stayed if she were more supportive. I agree that the local laundry matt is way easier to wash your blankets. I use them also as mine is right up the road as well.
    @Kurtize - I am so sorry David's husband is back in the hospital. I really hope they figure out what is going on this time. Intestinal issues are the worst sometimes. That is awesome that Kayla got a clean bill of health.
    @aalley5 - That is good that you stuck to your portion sizes. That can be really hard to do. I will definitely check out your pinterest page. That is pretty cool.

    Well I hope you all have a wonderful Saturday.

It looked quite thirsty. My Google is thumb is always look at the leaves have to leave look like they're starting a wilt it needs water. I felt bad for it. How did door dash go?
