Good morning!
Happy July! Summer is flyyyyying!
Hope your fast went well @KateNkognito
I am feeling good even though I didn't sleep that great last night. I am convinced it is the Air Conditioning. It is noisy and turns on and off and some how I still end up waking up warm at times and then I can't fall back asleep. Sigh…
Looking forward to the long weekend. Here in the office today and tomorrow. Remote on Thursday. Off on Friday. Less time commuting and more time sleeping in yea!
Have a good day and see you soon. :)

This morning was great! I finished my fast. I felt great. I was getting all the things done… then this afternoon hit. 😲
@Meghan509 I hope you get better sleep! Enjoy your extra day of not commuting!
I am going home. I am done with this day!

Good morning!
Congrats on the fast @KateNkognito!
Today has been pretty good. My commute was a little easier so I think people are probably taking time off this week, which is nice!
One more commute then done until next week! Big project coming up next week where I have to prepare a bunch of binders with tabs and PowerPoints inside. Getting some stuff ready for that now, so next week is not too ugly!
Not a whole heck of a lot going on here otherwise. About to hop on an 11:00am ET call, so I will keep this short.
Have a good day and chat soon! :)

Today is MUCH better than the end of yesterday. SO much quieter and I don't have a literal line of people waiting at my door to ask me things. 🙄 I am already 14/34 done with my queue. Hopefully I can get a few other things done this afternoon once I am finished with this.
I feel much better balanced this week. I need to work on a few bad habits that I fell back on in the last couple of weeks. Otherwise, I am moving forward!!
@Meghan509 Enjoy the quiet end of the week! Good luck with your things next week!
Off to finish this and then get lunch. Wish me luck! 🍀 LOL

Commute this morning was SUPER smooth! I got to work about 5 minutes faster than usual! I love when people take the day off!!
Not much going on today and that's the way I like it. 😊 I am just going to cruise through to the weekend. We were invited to my SIL's house, but both of the boys have to work tomorrow, so we are just staying home and being low-key.
Must go and finish up a few things. Have a lovely weekend! 🎆

Good morning!
Good, glad you are rolling right along @KateNkognito and doing better! You got this. I love easy commutes! Mine was easy today because I am home. Wee!
Last night trying to get from work to home, which is ten miles took me almost an hour. The highway was NOT moving. I ended up hitting my local library on the way and picked up three new books to read. I am almost done with my current one and I worried that if they are closed over the long weekend that I won't have a new book to read! Not that I don't have books sitting here on my shelf at home though. LOL
Planning to head to the gym soon during lunch and then hopefully the afternoon will be uneventful and quiet. I think it should be based on the AM being quiet.
Hope you have a nice holiday weekend and have a nice time relaxing at home! We will be home tomorrow relaxing on the patio as much as possible. On Saturday we'll head to a friend's house for the afternoon. They have a pool and it will be hot so I might even bring a bathing suit! Yikes! Sunday will be low key again. Only thing we need to do is groceries and laundry.
See you soon!

I hope your weekend was nice! We didn't really do anything. Having the extra day was very nice. 😊
Today is not too bad for a Monday. I had to battle a spider in the bathroom first thing, so I was wide awake without any caffeine! LOL
I think people have taken an extra day today because it is very quiet. Kind of makes me scared for tomorrow, but I will take the chill for today.
Have a great week!

Good morning!
Looks like you just posted before me @KateNkognito! I like it when that happens. LOL Smart minds think alike!
Glad you had a nice weekend relaxing! We went to our friend's house on Saturday and had a nice time. Otherwise we relaxed and stayed close to home. Tried to avoid traffic and highways as much as possible! Since we live on the I-95 corridor, traffic gets nuts during the summer getaway months. :)
Saturday night after we got home from our friends, I had what must have been a bad reaction to something I ate. Didn't feel like food poisoning but I was up from 12:00am to 3:00am praying to the porcelain G*ds. 🤢 🤮 Good times! Ended up getting very little sleep and felt like a zombie yesterday, but thankfully whatever it was departed. Last night I went to bed at 9:00pm and slept all the way through to this morning. Feeling much better today. Just grateful that the "event" did not happen while I was in the car driving home and that my BF slept through my multiple trips to and from the bathroom. OY.
Going to head over to the gym and walk on the treadmill for a bit during lunch. Excited to make a new chicken salad recipe for lunch this week. Also making a veggie curry tonight. Today has been pretty quiet work wise, with my boss and a bunch of others on vacation. Enjoy it while we can! Hope tomorrow is not crazy for you!
See you soon.

Happy Tuesday!
So you called it, @katenkognito! LOL Today has been BUSY!
Hope you are having a good one never the less!
Not too bad here. A bit of a calm before the storm. Later this week, tomorrow and Thursday I will be preparing binders and that can be oh so fun. LOL
HOT and HUMID today and storms on the way tonight. Just hope they cool things off a bit. Sheesh!
Had some yummy chicken salad for lunch today. Two thumbs up! Have a good day and see you soon. 😊

Yup, @Meghan509, I was right. I just realized that in all the chaos of yesterday, I never posted. It was one of those days where you are working all day and never really get anything done. 😕
Today is looking better already, though. Traffic was a breeze. I have the people here today to talk to so I can get things done. It is going to be a good one!
I hope today goes smoothly and all your binders behave and your printer prints flawlessly!
Have a great day!

Good morning!
I know what you mean @KateNkognito yesterday was busy!! Glad that today is better. Pretty much same for me.
Traffic has been lighter here too. I think people are FINALLY taking their summer vacations and it is reflected on on the highway. LOL
Today we have a lunch for the new Executive Assistant who started on Monday. She replaced the crazy one who lasted only a few weeks and then got fired. 😐️ Never a dull moment. The good news is the new EA is very nice and we think she will work out wonderful!!
Waiting to officially start my editing and printing (hopefully when I get back from lunch)! I am thankful for the positive vibes!
Hope you have a nice easy day! We are half way to the weekend!!
See you soon.

@Meghan509 I hope everything is going well today! Glad the new EA is better than the previous person. They sounded a bit extra.
Today is sailing along. I don't know where the morning has gotten off to, though. Seems to have sped by without me. LOL
I hope the rest of the week passes just as fast! This weekend my youngest has decided to get baptized, so we are going to have that and then a little lunch out.
Have a great rest of the day!

Good morning!
So yesterday was a day, for sure. Busy and crazy. Had my big project that was ready to print in the afternoon but the printer was making all of the copies pink. UGH. IT guy tried to fix it. No luck. Ended up having to PDF the files and email them to a local printer for printing. UGH. The good thing is I didn't have to come in today. But, I do have to go in on Monday when the prints are ready. All good.
The good news for today is I am down three pounds for the week! Biggest loss I have ever had. I wonder if my night of 🤮 helped in anyway. Pretty much a net calories for Saturday as a whole. LOL
@KateNkognito Enjoy the baptism! How nice. :)
We have zero plans for the weekend and that is fine. On Monday my sister and her family arrive from Florida and they are staying at an AirBnB for a few weeks a little north of us in CT. Excited to see them soon.
Hope your day is going well and the rest of your Friday and weekend are good. See you soon!

@Meghan509 Congratulations on the loss!! That is awesome! Sorry about the printer. At least you don't actually have to stand and make the copies? (looking for the positive) I hope you have a nice time seeing your sister and family.
Yesterday turned into a day for sure. By the end I was wondering what in the wide wide world of sports was going on with people and then I realized that it was the full moon last night and it all makes sense. 🌕️
Today is pretty good. I am cleaning up all the chaos from yesterday and I might actually get to the stuff I want to get done. 😊
Aside from the baptism on Sunday, we are pretty low key this weekend. Storms and cool weather for the next week or so. I will take it. I am too old for heat.
Have a great weekend!

So, today is a MONDAY. I had to leave work early on Friday because my husband forgot he isn't 25 and pulled his hamstring helping move a large piece of statuary. We had people at our house this weekend so it was a little bit of chaos. BUT my youngest was baptized Sunday, so it was a VERY good day! Husband is on the mend. I am getting work things tamed. I am going to have tacos for dinner to make it all better.
@Meghan509 I hope you had a good weekend and your sister and company arrive safely today!
Have a great week!

@Meghan509 I hope everything is going well and your copies arrived and are all collated appropriately.
Not much exciting going on here. Today is MUCH better than yesterday. 😊 I have been getting things done. The weather is actually not terrible today. Hot, but not humid. I might take advantage and go for a walk this evening with the dog in his stroller.
Have a great rest of the week!

Happy Tuesday!
Feels like a Wednesday though, since I am in the office already two days in a row!
Couldn't check in yesterday. Sat on this same page for a good part of the day but was too busy! UGH.
Yesterday the copies came in from the printer and they were brought to me around 2:00pm. Took me all the way until 5:30pm to get them all completed and distributed. Then, I got to drive home in torrential rain! So fun. LOL
@KateNkognito glad you had a nice weekend and the baptism went well! Sorry to hear about your hubby, but glad he is doing better too. Ugh!
Edit: Sister and family arrived safely! She said their house they rented is really old - 1700's! But, really cool! They are looking forward to having us over soon. :)
Hope your day was good yesterday and not too crazy. Today feels like a catch up day but all in all it is good.
About to have some lunch. Have a good Tuesday and see you soon!! :)

Good morning!
Working from home today! Feels strange to be Wednesday and home.
Sunny and HOT here. Weekend looking pretty good at the moment.
Hoping for a low key day today! Yesterday was a major catch up day. Tomorrow I will be in the office as usual. We have visitors coming in and they are hosting a meeting in one of our conference rooms. Otherwise I probably would have picked tomorrow for working from home.
@KateNkognito Did you buy anything for Prime Days? We bought a Ring camera for outside on top of our fence, that over looks the driveway! Need the bracket and solar panel to come next, and then we can set everything up. Can't wait to see what's going on in our driveway and to see the deer eating our flowers. LOL
Hope you have a good one today. See you soon.

@Meghan509 I got a few odds and ends for Prime Days. I hope you enjoy your camera! I like to use ours to watch the foxes in our yard in the early morning.
I had a pretty productive morning. This afternoon is super quiet, so I am a lot slower. Looking forward to going home and going to sleep.
Not a whole lot exciting going on here. Halfway through the week! Have a good one!

Good morning!
Ooooh I like your idea of watching the animals @KateNkognito!! The other day we had a little bunny sitting in our driveway, right next to my car! Felt bad walking over and getting in to go to work. And making he or she split!
Back in the office today. Busy with this meeting with vendors bugging me for flip charts, pens, making tape, blah blah blah. Sigh…
All good. Happy to be employed. LOL
Today feels like a Friday boo!
Tomorrow night we've been invited up to my sister's AirBnB for dinner. Looking forward to that.
Hope you have a good day today! Have Friday Eve! See you soon.

Today is a cool, cloudy, rainy day. After this it is supposed to get HOT for a while. My dog had the right idea this morning. He looked at me like I was a criminal for getting out of bed and then went right back to sleep.
@Meghan509 I know how you feel about people wanting you to do things. How dare these folks actually expect me to do my job! LOL I am happy to be employed, too!
Have a great Friday and enjoy your weekend with family!

I feel super gross today. I don't know if it's allergies or mystery spores from all the old files I have been digging through this week. 🤧 But someone brought donuts and donuts save lives and I got one with sprinkles, so I might just make it through the day! AND we have a basset hound visiting us this weekend. So, I must survive the work day so I can pet the ears.
Have a great Friday and a fantastic weekend!

Good morning!
Down one pound and two ounces! Almost at the 40 pound mark from my all time high one year ago. :)
The humidity has finally broken here! For now… I can actually wear my hair down and it looks okay. Who knew?! My hair is fine so it looks like limp spaghetti noodles when it is super humid. Oh joy.
@KateNkognito LOL at donuts save lives! They do. They sure do. Enjoy! You deserve it. Sorry you are not feeling well today. Hope that goes away ASAP. Awww, a basset hound - how cute!! ENJOY.
Thank you, my sister and her family brought their dog with them. They used to have two but one passed away a month or two ago. I don't wish ill will on any doggie, but that one used to stir up the other dog and whenever you went over her house it was CHAOS. Hoping this doggie is more relaxed now.
Weather should be decent today and tomorrow which is nice. Not sure what the plan is after tonight. Going with the flow!
Have a good rest of your day and weekend. See you soon!

Good morning!
@KateNkognito Hope you had a great weekend! Ours was very nice.
Friday night after work we went up to my sister's Airbnb up the line and had dinner with her and her family. They grilled and we had a salad. Nice meal. Sat outside all night since it was less humid and all in all the perfect type of weather day!
Saturday we were able to sit outside for a bit. Did our grocery shopping and then prepped for Sunday with my sister and family.
Yesterday we went to the beach! More time outside. I didn't go for a swim but my BF did. The water felt warmer than when we were there a few weeks back. Back to back days of heat and humidity are good for something. LOL We brought sandwiches and a lot of water and seltzers since it was hot, but it was nice. Spent a couple of hours there. Finished up the laundry and sat outside for a little in the late afternoon. So pretty out. Took a picture of a little bunny rabbit on Saturday. I will see if I can post it. He or she was nibbling on grass and weeds. So cute.
Working remotely my usual days this week. Missed the gym yesterday (for a good reason) but planning to head there today.
Bought some new shelving off of Amazon to organize all of my health and beauty stuff (make up, skin care, hair care, etc.) in the bedroom. BF put them together for me. I am looking forward to having a little more space to see everything and organize it. :)
Hope you have a good day and a good week! See you soon!!

@Meghan509 That sounds like a wonderful weekend! Family, good weather, good food, getting things done, plenty of outside time! Glad you had such a wonderful weekend!
I am currently hopped up on antibiotics and Advil. Working from home the rest of today and maybe tomorrow, depending on how I feel in the morning. I had some kind of perfect storm of hormones, allergies, and whatever is lurking in the files. I just took the first dose this morning and I can already feel it doing its thing! We live in marvelous times!
I have things to do, so off I go! Have a great week!

Working from home today because I still have a publicly unacceptable amount of nose blowing going on and my family is reminding me why I don't like working from home… definitely back to the office tomorrow! LOL
@Meghan509 I hope your in office day is going well!
Have a lovely rest of the week!

Hello!
Just after 3:00pm ET here and it has been a little crazy today! Finally was able to eat lunch just before 1:00pm ET. Which is on the later side for me. Sigh…
Sorry to hear about your allergies and nose blowing @KateNkognito I hope you feel better! LOL at the family comment. 😁
Not much else to report here! Two more hours until going home time. Woot! Kind of tired of this day, not going to lie! But the good news is I have been sleeping better lately. Thank G*d.
Planning to hit a different grocery store by us on the way home from work tonight. Hoping to pick up some more of the yogurts we like! This grocery store sent $10 off $50 coupons weekly, for the next four weeks. There is a new grocery store opening up on that same road, so they want to remind us to keep shopping there! Fine by me. LOL
Have a good day and see you soon!
