Sure! We take anyone that is up nights! As long as you don't start preaching the sins of eating a donut, you're welcome.

I get free, fresh, locally made donuts at work. Delicious, but makes it tricky to keep my calorie deficit!0

Just eat the holes. All the calories would have fallen out. 0

Amazon and Ebay are the best shops in the world.....full stop.....I am not a good shopper, if you get in my way you get the short end of my temper...being British we have certain standards we live by...and queue jumping and plain rudeness just will not do..........so you do something to me...then all hell breaks loose.....my missus has stopped taking me shopping with her as 5 / 10 times I WILL have a barney with some ignorant Neanderthal at some time in our outing......
So for me Amazon rocks.......0 -
Hahaha right?! I suspect he'll eventually get tired of all the "mean people" in the forums telling him that he's wrong and ragequit. But you never know, he might actually stick around long enough to learn something.lilaclovebird wrote: »blondeinnj wrote: »What goes on here, is this for insomiacs?

I can see "La Tour de Koocanusa" on my training calendar. 82 miles. Should I be excited or nervous? I know I can do it but still. I'm nervous.0

It's a ride along the reservoir in Libby Montana. It starts in the Kookanee mountains and runs up to Canada. Gorgeous area. It's supposed to be a "ride". Any time you get two or more cyclists together, it turns into a race.0

Not a good night for little dogs. Between big dogs and Coyotes, I've spent a lot of time in surgery. Cancer has been running a close second but euthanasia doesn't take as long as reattaching the body wall to the ribs.0

I would kick you off but I'm right there with ya. Drinking wine for emotional reasons counts as eating my feels right?0 -

Then maybe this should just be the party wagon.

@bethanie0825 Ya'll got to hook up the HDMI from the laptop? Im massively jealous. That would be awesome for those quiet zones in the early am on night shift. we can read, write, knit, etc. Basically as long as it doesn't take away from our work and doesn't involve electronic devices.
Ya'll are derf right about how easy its become to spend the overtime money earned.
I'm usually over here like, "I'm gonna save it!!!!" Then I pay a little extra on bills or go crazy buying my sons things. For instance, thankfully I got a little overtime this month because its been really tight and his birthday was yesterday and his party is this upcoming weekend. I got overtime, turned right around and ordered his birthday games for the party and presents.
Ironically on amazon looking for a tagging gun for an upcoming consignment sale in the area. I could just use safety pins but I like the little tag thingies and I feel like this would be much faster. (And safer since my 2yoa like to mess with everything I'm doing) As for the doughnut thing..... (besides to obvious yum/*drool*) i've found we never really have them on night shift but our day shift brings them in around once-twice a week or more if its holiday time. Being on night shift there was a lot less temptation here. (Less food/baked goods brought in, the night shift teams don't out to eat every day--- because well most places are closed)
So on my two days off work, one was spent in appointments and work training. The other was spent celebrating my son's birthday! Working so much and getting very little time with them makes me really appreciate the rare days that I do get to see my boys. We may have been running all over the place but it was still good. We took him to breakfast with his grandmother, picked up a couple things from dollar tree, took him to a local rescue zoo ----we got to feed a giraffe, pigs, goats, and see a bunch of others up close, he napped on the way home, we ate lunch together, grilled pork loin for dinner with his great grandmother, then straightened up the house, got him ice cream, chilled out for maybe 30min-1hr and off to bed we went. I'd say it was a wonderful way to spend the day off.
Today however, is my day back at work
for the long weekend. And whereas that would usually mean Fri-Sun then Monday and Tuesday off work, I will actually be working every day til Wednesday because Im switching to our other dayshift in order to knock out some training. 
Sorry for long post ya'll. How is everyone doing? I know ya'll are probably sleeping, but I look forward to reading posts later/tomorrow.0 -
Back in the saddle for my long weekend too...yay. I'm def on the party wagon too, been eating my feelings since Wednesday morning.0

Had to give on on the bike today. I was exhausted. Grabbed some sleep instead and then got up and lifted weights. Then my son comes out and puts it all in perspective. He pats my belly and says, "That's a belly." I'm not sure if it was a statement of observation of a statement of awe from the size of the thing.
@bethanie0825 - You've been at that most the week. What do you have going on?
@LacednLace - Sounds like a great day with the kid. Glad you able to take the time to spend with him. 0 -
Nah, I was off Wednesday and Thursday nights. I'll work tonight, Saturday, and Sunday nights. Just had a crappy Wednesday morning is all. Hopefully this will be an uneventful weekend and we won't have anyone bring us donuts.0

Heyoooh! It is Monday. Blech. But at the end of this week starts a 10 day vacation so I'll power through knowing that is coming! Earlier today my kiddo and I went to the art museum and had Indian food! Fun! The fair was ok. Had a corndog, caramel apple elephant ear, some slushie. Rode some rides. Got kissed by a llama THREE times! His name was LeRoy and he had nasty breath. But he was such a ladie's man! On Tuesday we rode our bikes over the river for bbq pork nachos and beer. Hit the microbrewery a few times...it had been awhile! Actually got to use the pool too. It has been either rainy or too cool to use it lately. My Italian hippie shrink suggested lemon balm essential oil for me...so I went to the hippie store and got some...and bought some hippie food and hippie deodorant too. I love that place. Went to the gastro and I got lucky enough to schedule a top and bottom scope next month. I knew it was coming but I am NOT looking forward to it!. Tried some of Starbucks new frappuccino flavors...and was sooo disappointed! We had cocoa caramel cluster (which was pretty good), I had lemon bar (so watery and blah) and my FIVE year old daughter ate the whipped cream off of hers but HATED the cotton candy flavor...it was that bad. I should have just got mocha frappes from McDonalds. I don't care what anyone thinks...McCafe mochas/frappes/lattes blow Starbucks outta the water. Even their k-cup at home coffee is killer.0

I'm a night shift nurse. Glad to find some other night shift workers0
