Serial Starters

Ali - Oh you must be so happy your mother came through and is now "pink"!
Wonderful~~

Lana

Good morning...

Hope everyone is doing well... cool morning... possible rain this afternoon... airing the house out a bit, until it warms up this afternoon...

Had my appeal hearing for Unemployment, this morning... was over the phone and, thankfully, no one from shelter was on the line...I was so worried about that...I know I won't be approved...I'm not too worried... yes, that extra money would be good... but, since I am working, I'm not going to stress about it...I guess, I just felt I needed once last chance to prove what a jerk the boss is... I've ran into a couple girls, they say things are really bad down there... makes me so sad for the animals...

Annie - I am exact same as you...I keep telling myself I need to do something, get back on track...I have been stepping on scales, but I definitely don't like the number I see...I really don't think I'm doing horrible...I track every day... according to MFP, my weight should be going down, but I'm higher than I've been in quite a while....I just don't get it... less movement, is a huge thing... I've got to do something about that...

Sara - stay cool! I'm sure we'll be crazy hot, again... it is August in Mo... usually miserable...

Ali - hope your Mom is getting better and better...

enichols- hope you are doing well... right now is the toughest time... enjoy the memories, cry if you need to... don't feel bad if you smile or laugh, she wouldn't want you to be sad...

SO called last night, to ask if I could let his coworkers dog out...as I pulled in my own drive.. so, I took care of my pups, loaded up my girl and, went back out... the favor, also included making trip this morn... it's less than 10 minutes away, and I would do almost anything for a pup... feel so bad leaving her... she had such a sad look when I left... they will be home, tonight... so, she will be happy

No plans for today...I'm slightly motivated to do some organizing... that feeling won't last... need to find something to eat and see where that leads me..

Waves to all...
Have a great day

Ali - so glad to hear your mother got through it all ok and is on her way to recovery!

Sara - how often do you eat oatmeal?

Dawn - i know it has to be hard sometimes to work there. i know everyone at my vet clinic was so kind to me & family when we lost our George (my avatar). they see the sad, the bad, and the good. one tech told me all in all the good outweighs the bad.

You make a bet that you will lose a certain amount weight in a certain period of time. If you do, you get a payout that is larger than your bet. May end up doing this to get money to work on Jeep.

Found more issues with my Jeep. Had to order a bunch more parts. Eventually will have to replace the motor. This is getting to be a mighty expensive toy.

Could not stay asleep last night. Kept waking up over and over. Finally just got up and stayed up. Am getting drowsy at work now.

Have the Cboys keep the noise level to a minimum. *snuggling pillow on lounge chair to take a nap*

Kathryn- I would say, good does outweigh the bad... and, the Dr's I work for, aren't quick to euthanize...the other day, a couple ladies came in with a dog with lymphoma... they did not want to put her down, but couldn't afford cancer specialist/ chemo or, what to do...Dr C did not suggest euthanasia... she gave them a choice of meds, that may or may not prolong her life and, she will be comfortable...the dog still eats, drinks, plays, just has trouble breathing thru nose and has lumps, but not in much pain...the ones I have seen put down, other than the cat, were in really bad shape and it was the right thing to do...the cat, may have had issues, but looked healthy.. it was the owners decision, Dr just followed their wishes... just made me sad... but, most of the time, they are treated and sent home...I see more vaccinations and wellness checks than sad stories... plus, I get to love on kitties and pups... that makes it worth it

Since I'm still in school I had to go to class today. Luckily this is my last week, so I can relax a bit

Kathryn - yes, there is a list and that is where I found Pacer...I tried S Health... it was pretty much the same as MFP and I was spending a lot of time logging both... seemed too much to me.. I don't really think the other Apps are right for me...I have Googled free step Apps, but they don't sync with MFP...I would love to get a Fit Bit... just can't afford it...I cleared out some things on my phone, uninstalled and reinstalled Pacer... it is working, for now... thanks for the suggestions... think I just need a better phone...hahaha

Kathryn- thanks...I think I just put too much stuff on my phone, maybe...free is definitely good... and, crock pots are the best!
