Good Morning Jo Jo,

I have to talk to the director of the academics department. The academic advisor I spoke to, told me to switch from the a.s. program to the a.a. program, when I did that, the school revoked my student loans. So now, I have to appeal to the school, so I can withdraw and I still have to pay the school almost $800, for my textbooks and the refund I received.

How was Rooster's honor roll confirmation?

Have fun,

Zimmy

I'll be spending the morning doing phone interviews on two prospective candidates for my ex-colleague's job. Kind of fun that I get to have final say on my new co-worker! :cheesy:

Zimmy, that just stinks about having to withdraw from classes! I can't believe the school messed that up! :( Especially after you've done so much work already.....grrrrrrrrrrr!

I'm back to trying to be good on my eating habits...low carb is tough for me, but we can all support each other. :rrose:

This is going to be an exciting weekend...Rooster has his Odyssey of the Mind competition tomorrow all day....then I'm off in the evening to pick up my best friend at the airport. She's staying until Tuesday evening and I can't wait to see her again and for Scoote to meet her!

We also got the official "message in a bottle" from Scoote's work...and all of her hard work is paying off big time. They are officially taking us to the Bahamas for 5 days, and staying at the Atlantis. I sooooo cannot wait...it's going to be wonderful!

I better get back to work, but wanted to come wish you all a great day and a happy Friday! :gimmehug:

:kissy: for my sweetie....

Good Evening everyone!! How was everyone's day? nothing much doing here today, kinda cold and we are expecting rain again, it seems like the precipitation never ends here...I went to petsmart to buy dog food and got some good food for the dog. Some kind of raw food diet that is beef with brown rice and you slice off a piece and cut it into pieces the dog loved it!! have a great night

scootebaby 02-26-2011 06:52 PM

R....yes Jo making me healthier and me corrupting her a lil does balance pretty well...and we are even corrupting the others kids...she has my Prince eating broccoli *gag* and i have her son learning to be a smart ass AND :passinggas: openly and proudly :lol2:

my day has been uneventful--to the point i almost feel bad for blowing the whole day....planned on sleeping in,was up by 9:15...crusing thru the channels i see a marathon for Empty Nest (Kristy mMcNichol was my hugest crush ever) so been watching that on and off,took a nap then me and the Prince went to see "I am Number Four" my choice and for a change we BOTH liked it...was actually pretty good...i'd recommend it to anyone wondering :)

:giggle: Unfortunately...true!

Good morning everyone :bringcoffee: Hope you're having a wonderful weekend.

Annie is still snoozing so I popped in to say hey and let you all know I may be AWOL for the next day or two as she and I enjoy catching up with each other. Haven't seen her since August when I moved....and it feels like a hundred years since we talked...and also like it was last week. Isn't that the way it always is with good friends?

Hugs to you all....enjoy!

good morning Jo!! I'm glad your friend made it down there alright and you are having fun with her and catching up!! Its a nice day today in Florida I checked the weather and I wouldn't mind being there myself. Its a lazy morning here in NJ, dogs up late and a late start to the day. I already had coffee and now its breakfast time for me. Just some cleaning up the dishes and resting I have an interview tomorrow with Englewood Hospital for a temp position for some experience on the resume!! I hope they like me!!:blink: Have a great day everyone!!

Zimmeh 02-28-2011 09:29 PM

Hope you all have a wonderful night and a good start to your morning.

Jo and Scoote, if that fire is close to you, be safe and leave if they evacuate you all. This fire reminds me of the firestorm of 1998, when mist of Volusia County, Brevard County and Flagler County was on fire.

Have a good night,

Zimmy

Zimmeh 03-01-2011 07:26 AM

Good Morning Everyone,

Have a wonderful day,

Bacon has a lot of fat eat turkey bacon instead for protein if that is what you are looking for??

Zimmeh 03-01-2011 11:37 AM

Have you tried the Chobani brand of Greek yogurt? It has less sugar and calories than Yoplait yogurt. I think it is Kosher too.

Have fun today,

Zimmy

JustJo 03-01-2011 09:05 PM

Good evening all :)

Long last few days and I'm pooped, but happy. It was soooo nice to see my best friend and to have her here. We went to the beach, spent hours sitting on the patio with coffee talking, and spent today (her last day here) in Orlando at Universal..mostly in the new Harry Potter section. Very, very fun! I sure hope she can come again soon, and stay longer too.

Back to work and the regular schedule tomorrow.

Good night all! Sweet dreams. :rrose:

Phun1 03-01-2011 09:53 PM

Everything sounds delicious!
 
the dessert is the best part..you will need a good dessert wine, I'll bring a bottle!:chocolate:

JustJo 03-02-2011 07:13 PM

Good evening all, and welcome to the kitchen Phun! :)

It was a long and challenging day for me today...getting caught up after being away from work for 2 days, especially now that my work load is heavier. Scoote had a long day too...started early with PT and she's still not home yet. :(

It was really wonderful to see my friend, but I have to confess that she's very much on my mind and I'm worried about her health and happiness.

I made a yummy dinner...fried chicken breasts, mashed potatoes and broccoli. My friend taught me a new way to do the fried chicken that I just love. I've always struggled to get it done, not burned, and it takes too much oil, plus a lot of babysitting right up til the end and makes such a big mess.

She told me to mix the flour with season salt and pepper (nothing else), heat canola oil in a heavy pan and put the chicken in just until it's lightly brown on both sides. Then you put it into a baking pan and into a 375 degree oven for 45 minutes. It comes out perfect, makes little mess, and leaves plenty of time to make the veggies, etc. to go with it without all the stress of splattering oil on the stove. :)

Hope you're all having a good evening....and I'll be back if I can stay awake. :giggle:

Sweet_Amor_Taino 03-02-2011 07:45 PM

My Sweeties cooking
 
Ok I do not cook much becuase by the time I get home from work I am tired But my sweetie loves to cook and everything has to be from scratch and fresh no cans or frozen. She recently mailed me a Ninja machine so that when she is at home she could create all the wonderful receipts she learns on the cooking channel:cooking: So I will be sharing with you all how delicious all her cooking is and I hope I do not gain weight:weightshock: By the way you could check out the machine its call the Ninja and you could make almost anything from bread to fruit smoothies by just changing the blades, mixer and containers

Good Evening Jo Jo,

Thank you for the cooking tip! I will have to try it! I made tip steaks cut into quarters with frozen broccoli and carrots. It was delicious!

Hope Scoote made it home safely!

Good Morning Everyone,

It's a gorgeous day here and I cannot wait to go outside!

I am thinking of fresh fruit, toast, coffee, tea and juice for breakfast.

Have a wonderful day,

Zimmy

JustJo 03-03-2011 09:45 AM

:bringcoffee: Good morning everyone! :)

Coffee is on and breakfast is ready...

http://www.turbobocce.com/marvinseasefan/breakfast.jpg

I'm swamped in work...trying to get caught up after taking a couple days off. Luckily, we have a good candidate for the job vacancy...so getting that filled will take some of the overflow off of me.

The Prince is home sick (day 2), so I made him some fresh-squeezed orange and tangerine juice, and am getting ready to start some homemade soup.

Hope you all have a great day! :cheesy:

cinderella 03-03-2011 12:00 PM

Can't wait...
 
...to get my hands on that Ninja machine, and you!!! ;)

Howdy Jo, and all, it'a been a looooong time!

It's true, I love to cook - it's one of my great passions. Just put me in the kitchen, and I'm a happy girl.

It's also true that I make everything from scratch - fresh herbs, fruits, veggies, etc. I like making my own sauces, for pastas and anything that requires a sauce. I like making my own mayonaise too. I do occassionally use frozen or canned, but try to avoid it - thinking of God-knows-what goes in these foods to process & preserve them, gives me the willies!

I'm addicted to the Food Network (cooking) channel, and watch it everyday. Ina Garten is my goddess - I also love Ann Burrell, and many others. I download their recipes, and have tried many - they are all fantastic.

I just indulged in a pricey Le Crueset enamaled dutch oven - can't wait to make some home-made chile in it, and all sorts of wonderful things.

Ok, I think I'm officially on a rant/roll...but when it comes to cooking - I'm all over it! p.s. I make some to-die-for Puerto Rican dishes too - nothing like 'soul'/comfort food to warm the cockles of any butch's heart!!! Remember girls, a way to a myn's heart is thru hys tummy - well, most of the time, lol. :)

Good morning everyone, and welcome to the thread Sweet Amor and Cinderella :)

All I can say is TGIF....it's been a long week, have a busy day today, and am getting ready to take off on Sunday for a week-long training session in AZ. Poor Scoote is going to have her hands full with the house and the kids and work...

I'm in the mood for one of these...anyone else?

Good Evening Jo Jo,

The picture devil came and took it away...How was your Friday? I spent the day hanging out with my mom and helping out at her shop. Have you ever watched this show on TruTV called Lizard Lick Towing? This dude is nuts! The mess he says makes me miss hearing the old sayings my grandma used to say. My dad who passed, his family was from the mountains of Alabama and they had some wild sayings.

Have a good night and if you dont get back in here, have a safe trip to Arizona!

Zimmy

It's being a long week...lots of studying...and my brain hurts.
They treat us well though...nice hotel, yummy lunches and lots of friendly people.

I'll be glad to get home though!
Hope you're all having a good week....and good luck on that interview Zimmy! Let us know how it goes... :rrose:

:lips: baby.....miss you

Zimmeh 03-11-2011 06:18 AM

Good Morning Everyone,

My interview was ok. The guy interviewing me, lost my application, couldn't remember calling me or knowing my name. I have mixed feelings in regards to the job, but I'm not going to put all of my eggs into one basket. I still have my interview on Sunday with Starbucks and I'm hoping that will be a lot better.

I am thinking of pancakes for breakfast!!!

Have fun in Arizona Jo Jo!!!

Zimmy
