Serial Starters

Good morning,

Last day I can sleep in so I did.

Lana you are right - hormones and holidays are a bad combination to expect weight loss, but keep trying.

Lana can you get a car seat cover that has a bathing suit on it?

I may have to talk to my psychiatrist about upping my meds. Work is getting to me again. Of course if Monster has her way I wont be there anyway.....and up until now she always got her way. How can you expect someone to be at everyone else's production when you are still in training? So I muddle through. We shall see what we shall see.

My car brakes are squeaking and I have put that down on my December to do list.

A walk is in order every day anyway. So I need to mail some things so I will get out of the house.

Cookies were not made last night butter takes too long to soften and I will not be up late baking. Today is the day.

Wave to all who follow. Stay safe and sane out there.

Good evening,

Insomnia - seeing Monster again after 4 days - found me last night. P U

Came home from work and passed out. I am doing better than I was last time I tried to learn this material and gee I can imagine that it will not be a cake walk- but I am on better ground this time.

May get neighbor to come and take down their decorations and put up my Christmas lights. One of my favorite things about the holiday are the colored lights.

Scale is okay, body looking better but I am dealing in baby steps again. Too much going on at so many levels-

Good evening.

Lana, good flight good food and glad you are going to your appointment.

Work is hard enough but when we are short staffed it just is insane. I try to go to bed earlier... today I had a dental apt so I have a feeling without my afternoon crash it might be easy to sleep.

Wave to all who follow. Stay safe and sane out there.

Good afternoon,

Home for day - counseling phone apt and will try and get some sleep in.

Lana - thank you for supporting the Chinese place you order from, so many are not open. Okay as long as the food you eat does not interfere with your teeth work - order Chinese all week long if you want to. Give yourself credit for being at the dentist and taking care of this. Can you watch Christmas movies on your tv/phone? Can you take a walk this week and get your steps in? Time to do the life hard stuff and give yourself points so that when you get back to the trails its time to do the food hard stuff again.

Let me know how the dental apt goes today. Hey can you have a doughnut for me this week and let me know how it is??

Wave to all who follow. Stay safe and sane out there.

Good afternoon,

People from other departments are now helping us do our work as the bottleneck is causing them to not have any. But that is the good news. The bad news is my boss cant communicate for nothing and it is even more confusing than it needs to be.

Lana I hope your delivery found you so that you could also take a nap. Good job with the steps. I may hit 6k today how I have no clue.

Melissa - sometimes a 'draw' is the best you can do with food/exercise. Glad you were able to get a work out in.

Wave to all who follow. Stay safe and sane out there.

Good evening,

Ok it is afternoon still (just) but it is Friday and I am done with work.

I do work ot 4 hours tomorrow. I am almost done paying off my credit card debt and I have lived a little lean, so a little extra $$ even after taxes is a nice reward.

Frozen leftover shepherd's pie for dinner. Too lazy to think beyond that.

Wave to all who follow, it is cool here but I know it is colder elsewhere so stay warm /stay safe and sane out there.

Good afternoon,

Groceries, work, then slept. There went my morning and part of afternoon.

Clouds no rain - January is usually our big month , but it has been really pathetic rain wise.

May put up lights, but then tomorrow is probably the day.

Baked potato with butter/cheese, beans and onions - okay a little bbq sauce and all will be well for dinner.

I learned how to crochet 4 different snowflakes this week (to decorate at work) and yes my hands are telling me about it.

Now to leave to open bag of cheetos alone...

Good morning,

By now you may have had your brunch Lana and I hope you enjoyed it!!!

Quiet/lazy day here which is appreciated. No rain for week means I can go out walking.

Putting up some tree lights to decorate and making cookies are possibilities to make this a "non-slug" day.

Wave to all who follow - stay warm/safe and sane out there.

Good afternoon,

Easier to fall asleep with colder weather after work. Bundle up and start snoring....

Lana - if you get a dog - who takes care of dog when you are in NYC or does dog come with?? Dog is a wonderful balm for living alone.

Your meal with your friend sounds like it was worth whatever calories you ate and it still didnt sound like you ate that badly. You have been good walking. Give yourself credit.

I have made 4 batches of cookies and they need to leave soon as I am sneaking cookies from the freezer. I need to make one more batch because of it.

I put up a couple strands of lights on my patio and I asked neighbor to come check if my extension cord was safe it wasnt my oldest but I wanted to be safe. He then saw I had 3 more strings of lights and redid my patio, being short it limits what I can/cant do.

I am not sure what my Christmas will be, but I dont think hibernating is a good thing (unless the weather stinks) so I need to make plans to get out.

Hang in there Lana there are a lot of us out here that understand. Where is your flat Christmas tree?

Wave to all who follow. Stay safe and sane out there.

Good evening,

Long day and two long phone calls and here I am.

Lana what Board are you now on? Ogre Man hmmmm.... locked room with Mrs Monster?? Put Mario in for good measure. Sounds like a plan.

Glad you have your flat tree. Still looking for my Christmas cd's but I am watching dvd's that are British Christmas episode. Much better than what I can get on TV.

Getting my steps in - would be better if I didnt indulge in potato chips, but it is just a phase.

Wave to all who follow. Stay safe and sane out there.

Good afternoon,

Lana hope you got home safely.

Mrs M comes back to work tomorrow. Neighbor gave me 70% isopropyl alcohol best % to sanitize hands with so if you find it make sure to buy it. Put into a spray bottle at work we are getting 4 people in the department and that quadruples the germ potential.

Okay time for nap -
