Good morning everyone :)

Thanks for breakfast Zimmy! Coffee is on :bringcoffee:

Hope things settle down at work for you...it's so stressful to be surrounded by that kind of negative energy.

I gave my eyes a break from computer screens this weekend and never turned a single one on. Instead we did work around the house, hit some yard sales, went to the movies and such....good stuff.

Weekends go way too fast though....can't believe I'm already back at work. :seeingstars:

Hope you all have a great day! :gimmehug:

Good Morning Everyone,

I talked to my supervisor yesterday and talked to her. She is going to handle everything and wasn't to happy about the lady who was cussing.

I had pancakes this morning for breakfast and coffee. I'm leaving a huge plate of pancakes for all of you!

Have a great day,

Zimmy

Thank you and have a relaxing day!

Zimmy

Good morning everyone :)

:bringcoffee: Coffee is on, and breakfast is ready :eating:

I'm trying to get revved up for work today...yesterday was a seriously long "I just don't care and don't feel inspired" day. And today is my "full of conference calls" day....sigh. The good news? My blackberry, which has been screeching in my ear the last few days at random moments, is being replaced (probably today) via FedEx.

The bad news? I definitely pulled a muscle in my upper back....feels like just under my shoulder blade, lifting #!%$^&&@@##!!$$**%^#@ concrete. Grrrrrrrrrr.

Hope you all have a great day! :gimmehug:

Happy Wednesday!
 

Delicious breakfast!!!! Good Morning Jo!! Take it easy on your back Ms Jo, hope all of you have a great hump day!!!

Congrats Sylvie!!1

You can do it and playing in the rain is fun to do!!!

Zimmy

Thank you for breakfast Jo Jo!

I will switch you jobs for one day if you like. We were cleaning the office lastnight and I lost track of time. Since organizing is something that I enjoy. I left work late and now I will be able to go home early tonight..woohoo!

I am leaving you a huge pile of :chocolate: to munch on while your on those dreaded conference calls. :phonegab::tea:

Hugs and have a good day,

Zimmy

Good morning everyone :)

Giving the :alarm: Scoote 15 more minutes before waking her up to go to physical therapy. Hopefully this round will do her some good.

My back is quite a bit better today...still can feel it but not even remotely as bad. Amazing what a night's sleep can do!

Glad to hear that more level heads prevailed dark crystal :) ...and hope that you finally get a day off to rest Zimmy! You've been working a lot!

Hope you had a lovely birthday Lady Snow :rrose:

And greetings to all who just read through or pop in...hope you all have a wonderful day! :gimmehug:

Good Morning Jo Jo,

Thank you for breakfast and it looks yummy! I have today and tomorrow off and I'm loving it! Glad to hear that your back is feeling better and how is Scoot's physical therapy going? I am thinking a nap is in order today and Athena may just end up taking one with me!

Have fun today,

Zimmy

Helloooooo!
 

Good Morning!!!! Have a great 2 days off Zimmy!!! Ms Jo the celebrations are going great! Hope you and Scoote have a less painful day! How are the boys doing? I can't believe school time is around the corner...

Thanks for breakfast and I hope you all have a great Thursday!

I want some of this! It is a local pastry shop and the owner has had no formal training...I am watching the pounds climb on board, lol..

Enjoy!

Zimmy

Good Morning Everyone,

I am thinking we all need this for breakfast:

with a side of this as dessert:

Enjoy, there is a pot of extra strong Starbucks French Roast coffee on for us!

Zimmy

You are welcome and you can have dark chocolate that is 72% or higher. The dark chocolate has antioxidants and flavonoids that our bodies need in order to remain healthy, one good thing I learned while working for Godiva...I really could go for a dark chocolate truffle with 85% dark chocolate sprinkled on top..Who knows, I may go to Godiva today and pick up a couple...Hehe..

Pick yourself up a Brita pitcher, it helps to filter out your water and I love ice cold water when I come home from a power walk...

Have fun today,

Zimmy

No I didn't know they had that! I'll have to look for it and thank you for sharing that info!

Have a great day!

Zimmy

omelettes? hell i thought they were crepes..imagine how surprised my tastebuds woulda been--and prolly pissed bc they have a bit of an attitude when expecting one thing and getting another.

i started therapy this week,which one day was baaaad the other wasnt so bad,altho a bit uncomfortable when i got a massage. she was doing my lower back and top of my butt--which was wierd bc i could feel her hans going inside the top of my shorts to reach my butt,but i guess thats better than having to drop them completely :| (maybe i shoulda posted that elsewhere! lol

i even get to work tonight...i make the schedule and could work a whole lot more,but with my back as weak and bad as it is i dunno if i would be up to it---plus it would mean taking hrs away fromother employees and i dont wanna do that sooooooo

i hope everyone has a great weekend!

:kissy: don't work too hard tonight....

Good morning everyone :)

Internal alarm clock woke me up at 7 a.m. (on a Sunday....ugh), so I went out early, adjusted the pool chemicals, swept the steps and sides, and then came in to put the coffee pot on.

Now I'm watching Yard Crashers...and getting wayyyy too many ideas for the yard. :cheesy:

Hope you all have a wonderful day. :gimmehug:

Good Morning Jo Jo,

Thank you for the coffee and I am leaving some fresh fruit and yogurt for breakfast today. I was feeling like a healthy breakfast this morning.

I am trying to attend the Reunion in October. I have to get the time off from work and buy my plane ticket..I am really excited and I am hoping I can attend.

How are you doing today?

Zimmy

Doing well...how about you?

I hope you get to go to Reunion! :) It is most likely a "no go" for me this year. My mother is wanting to come for a week or so in early October, working the schedule around her chemo, so managing both would be too much of a challenge.....but, first things first, right?

I promised Scoote sausage gravy and biscuits for breakfast (her favorite)...so not so healthy for us today...but yummy! :eating:

I am doing good. When I went to work yesterday, I had an email from my department manager in regards to my possible transfer tomorrow at 3pm. I am excited and I hope I get the transfer!

I agree with you about how your mom comes first; if something happened to my mom, I would definately put my life on hold again and take care of her. We only have one mother! Your breakfast sounds very yummy and I had my cheat day yesterday. I was starving at work, so I bought a hamburger from the restaurant on property...I didn't eat all of it, but it was delicious!

Hugs,

Zimmy

I am trying to go. I will know tomorrow if I get my transfer to another department, which pays more an hour. I cannot wait to meet you both if I can go.

Have fun today,

Zimmy

Good Morning Jo, Zimmy and Crystal!!! Hope y'all have a great tranquil day!!! Zimmy I too hope you can make this years Reunion!!

I will know tomorrow if I can go.

How are you doing?

Zimmy

Hope you all had a wonderful Sunday!

Night,

Zimmy

We're good, we chillaxed all day it was crazy hot out!

How did your weekend go?

Good morning everyone :)

Since so many of us are trying to eat healthy...I thought we could start with this...

http://bedandbreakfastantwerp.com/wp...255_MEDIUM.jpg

...and, of course, some coffee! :bringcoffee:

I woke up early this morning...about 6:15 and couldn't get back to sleep...so I'm working, doing laundry, and already took care of the pool this morning. It's doing much better, which is a huge relief to me.

Had to rescue a very large spider from the water this morning. S/he was still alive, skating on top but obviously not happy about it. Spiders freak me out, but I know they're good critters....so I got my verrrryyyyyy long handled pool brush, scooped it up on the end and deposited it on the ground about 15 feet from myself....that helps!

Can't believe it's Monday....where did the weekend go?????

Can I get some coffee? Police lines blocked me from mine today.

Good Morning Jo!!!! Hi Tapu!!! Thanks for the healthy start and hoping everyone's start of the week is a good one!

Dang, I hate it when the coffee gets policed. :blink:

Here's some for everyone...

http://college.biggirlssmallkitchen..../06/coffee.jpg

Good morning Tapu, and welcome. Good morning Snow...hope you all had a nice weekend. :)

I'm supposed to be working, but...well...it's Monday. Guess that "slow start" is the theme of the week!

Da dum psht...

:drummer:

Good morning everyone :)

:bringcoffee: Coffee is on, and I thought I'd bring us something healthy today...

I was so busy the last couple days dealing with plumbing issues and work stuff that I was completely :seeingstars:, but am feeling a bit more back to normal today. Went outside to find the pool cloudy again ( %^#$@@*&^ algae growth in hot weather)....my fault because I slacked off on the cholorination out of sheer laziness about getting to the store for supplies. Luckily Scoote brought some home last night, so we can get back to our clear, sparkly water.

Also found her "special kitty" walking along the top of fence needing rescue again....but couldn't find a hole, so no idea how she got up there.

We have a weird man coming to deliver a recliner this morning for Scoote....got it at a yard sale....pretty blond leather rocking recliner in very nice shape....$50 and they'll deliver it, so I'm not going to complain too much. (Although he's one of those odd, too chatty, overly friendly to strangers, stand slightly too close kind of people). I think it'll be nice in our living room, and will be more supportive to her back than the couch is.

I'm working away on my projects....making some headway. Hope you all have a great day! :gimmehug:
