    All the men in the building (specifically within the mortgage company) is sick with man colds, it first started with my boss and now it's alll over. I'm hiding out front with tons of lysol and music so I don't hear the whining :D

    One of the men in my office came into work desperately sick yesterday. Stupid. I said the same thing...don't you dare make me sick! Stay home! In today's world of telecommuting there is no reason to come in.

    This is my thoughts exactly! Especially since they all work in mortgages, you can do that stuff from home unless you have a meeting with clients (there was no meetings) so now I'm in the office with a scratchy throat and don't have the luxury of working from home. HMPH!

    Obviously, HIPAA laws make working from home a non-starter in my job. They would go broke buying us all secure laptops. And yet they have these draconian attendance rules so that people come to work sick. (It's a whole point if you stay home and a third of one point if you leave early.) Working in a hospital, we get exposed to everything anyway, but I want to bleach my desk everyday.

    I think they think they are manly if the show up. But then they just make the rest of us miserable.

    TWELVE DAYS TIL CHRISTMAS, PEOPLE!!!

    I just realized I have tomorrow off. I'm going to the dentist for a crown in the morning. I'm hoping I'll feel good enough afterwards that I can finish off my last minute Christmas shopping - stocking stuffers, ingredients for fudge, and something to take to the office Christmas potluck.

    I saw you finished your holiday shopping on the feeds! I'm pretty much done with shopping for everyone & wrapped last Saturday when I was off. Now I just need to figure out what games to pick for Christmas (checking into some silly Minute To Win It inspired Christmas games) & maybe some more ideas on food to serve.

    We're having our holiday potluck on Friday & I told another coworker that we could buy ice cream for the party since management was buying pies.

    Same with Walmart. New hires only get four points (they might have to be there 90 days or longer to make it the full nine) & if they go over that then they get fired. If you're late it's 1/2 point (you can be late up to nine minutes). A no call/no show will give you an automatic four points.

    I always make something special for Christmas morning breakfast. I can't decide what to make this year. Anyone have any ideas?

    I confess I have lost all desire to log my food. I have been attempting to get back into the habit. If I complete today, it will be the first full day in at least two months.

    Congratulations on trying to get back in the habit! I've been having issues logging lately too. It either seems like a lot of effort or I end up eating things other than what I've planned out. But I think that's pretty normal. You've got this!

    I'm personally leaning toward either some kind of quiche or a breakfast skillet with sausage and peppers. Those aren't really special, but they're things I don't usually have an excuse to make.

    Thanks @quiksylver296 and @LenGray. I need to look this thing in the face so I can fix it. I haven't been ready to face just how much I have been eating, but time to suck it up!

    I almost bought vegan icecream at walmart on Tuesday but resisted as I knew the pint wouldn't last the night in spite of the "4 servings" calorie count.

    Do it do it do it do it do it! It really does help keep you honest!

    I never heard of a point system for attendance?

    Have you tried Tofutti Marry Me ice cream bars? They're really good! Not sure if they have them at Walmart though..
