Hi everyone! Greetings from the cold and rainy plains. Have I mentioned that I am sick of this weather? It seems to be a constant theme with me.

TK -- Katie liked her gift card alot until her grandmother gave her some nintendo computer gadget and game. Overshadowed again:rolleyes:
I made the bracelet for her our of glass and crystal beads. I was really into making jewelry (bracelets and earrings) a few summers ago, but have only made a few this year. I have given bracelets to everyone I know. Some friends and family have received several. I have alot of left over beads so I may pull them out again this summer if I get stuck in the house due to hot weather. Or course, I do not think the sun is ever going to shine her for 2 days in a row. Remind me that I am complaining about this weather in a few months.:D Please send "just a little" of your heat north.

Kelly -- I hope your doctor's appt goes well.

Sandy -- Have fun cleaning:eek:!

Kay and Frank -- Hope you are taking it easy.

Hi Vonn, Finn, Renee, and anyone else reading this. Finn, is the sun really shining in Ohio?

I just made a cous cous salad for dinner tonight and now I am going to go read. Have my pulmonary vascular test tomorrow. Has anyone else ever had this test?

Barb - You can have all the sun and heat you want. How much? LOL. It is starting to blaze here as well as the glare. It's intense. *trying to blow some heat your way . . pant, pant, pant. . and suck in some of your cooler air down this way." Man, now I need to take a nap. LOL.

Vonn - I missed that last night. I'll have to watch online now just to see your dream lighthouse. Good luck with your classes.

Sandy - Despite all the stuff and the "tornado" in the basement you have to admit it is nice to have your boys home for the summer. Enjoy them while they are there.

Hey Renee, how did things go today? Any news from the company?

Barb, ok so it was mostly cloudy, LOL. But the sun made an appearence now and then. ;)

Sandy, Another school year under their belts. :) Have fun having your boys home.

GJ, Glad you had a great weekend. :)

Vonn, man, now I'm sorry I missed it. That extreme makeover must have been cool. Glad your classes are going well. :)

TK, Sorry to hear the temps have gotten so warm. It's supposed to warm up later this week, so I'm trying my best to get some of this stuff done. It's a jungle out there. :eek:

~~~~~~

Just tried a new mulch and it looks great! Keeping fingers crossed that I can still find it since I was buying a little at a time since I can only do so much at once. At least if I do have to change part way, I started with an area that wouldn't look too weird, LOL.

Was out there for about 2 hours and then came in and crashed for a little bit. Did some errands and now starting to feel better.

Writing out little goals to get through this week including getting the process started for joining the Y - even hubby is interested after we looked at it.

howdy all

doc has slipped me a sleeping aid gonna try and figure which pill it is causing me to sleep so much,and stop taking it, I know part of my escape plan was agreeing to getting plenty of rest to the doctor, all i can say one of these pills is doing it big time to me.

I still have to catch up on all the post, so till I have I shall keep it simple saying good day to all and better evening to you


peace


oh great just looked 5 of the 6 new meds may cause drowsieness ok so my next plan is i guess sleep

I just came in from gluing velcro on our old pop-up camper. But we'll only use it once this yr. (memorial day weekend). The reason is cuz my DH is going out of town on this &%^#$ business trip. He is there till mid-September. He gets to come home every other weekend however. I can picture my DD & I driving there to stay a bit, maybe. I'm in Ohio & he will be south of Chicago.

Hey all,
How is everyone?? I miss you all very much, just been so busy with working the new boss job, and kids and life....havent been on puter much at all.

Anyhow, things are going ok, some days been getting lots of sxs...blahhh

Work well interesting, lots of training needed at my new store I am running....so trying to improve it...little by little..without getting too overwhelmed..first few weeks I was overwhelmed...as I was learning new stuff as store manager, and also new place and all....but calming down now..taking day at a time...doing what I can to lead by example..and coach some to the way things are suppose to be....

anyhow, enough about that place..hehehe

Wish it would warm up a bit here, not wanting too hot...as my body hates heat...but hey out golfing tonight..and was creeping down into 40s..and tonight is a frost warning...geezz isnt it late May..????

Hey Sarah! I was just thinking about you the other day, wondering where you were..Glad to hear things are going well, Congrats on the new position/store!
I hear ya on the temps..It's gotten down to the upper 30's & low 40's here at night. When do I get to complain about the heat?:D

Frank, Sorry to hear about the sleeping issues. Hope you can figure out the culpret here soon. :hug:

Sarah, Thanks for checking in, hun. Wow, sounds like your new store has been busy. Hope everything levels out soon.

Lor, Ick. I hate it when my hubby goes on business trips. I hope you still have fun memorial day weekend. :hug:

Polar, LOL. I'm quite happy with my 60 degree weather right now. It's helping me get some yardwork done before I'm trapped hugging my A/C. :D

~~~~~~

No sun in sight this morning, so probably going to get my hair done. Just waiting for the kickstart from my coffee, LOL.

Plus I think a break is needed. My arms are a little fatigued from yesterday. It feels good, but I definitely do not recover like I used to - LOL.

Have a good day all :)

Hey all. I got up and went to the doctor for blood work and now back home. He was happy to hear I gave up my sweet tea since the last blood work results showed borderline diabetes. I weighed in on his scale and it said 135!!!!!! My scale says 139 but I'll go with his...lol

Finishing laundry, sweeping floors and mopping today. Oh, update on my mom. She called social security and they said she should apply for her regular retirement first and get into the system and then disability. Looks like things are going to look up finally. We don't know if she'll make enough to live on her own yet but we'll see. Now we need to get her set up for insurance because her work insurance will be gone after short term disability ends. Then she will be coming up here.

Jim is feeling better except he feels like sleeping more than usual. But ms does that now doesn't it? :rolleyes:

I spoke to Renee last night and the base is not helping her at all. :(

Have a great day everyone!
