why hello week

Fancy you show up so soon. I am not quite sure I am ready for you but here we go anyway!

I met some local nesties this weekend which was nice and DH got back last night (he has been gone since Thursday) so yesterday was a good day.

Nothing exciting this week. Just hoping for a little more energy. Last week was rough at work with zero energy.

Happy Monday friends :-)

Re: why hello week

  • Mornin'

    I'm not ready for this week. So much to do, so little time!

    YAY for meeting local nesties, Aggie! That's fun!  I'd send you my extra energy if I had any, but I'm fresh out. I'm hoping to regain some this week.

    Wednesday is my program orientation at school. I'm interested to see what we'll be talking about for three hours.

    Afternoon Ladies! I am crazy tried as we had a very busy/long weekend. We got home last night after midnight! Very sleepy today. The weekend was a lot of fun though. My sister is happy! My cousin is ready to start college and it was so good to see my dad's side if the family. We are planning a family Bills Game for Nov. 9th! If my sister comes in or my parents go than we will. If not I am good.

    My sister is looking at venues today in Buffalo. CT during the week. We should have a date and place soon! She also informed me that I was going to be her MOH. Which I am excited about. I have never been in a wedding other than my own.

    This week we need to clean the house, laundry, clean the pool and get all the prep done for H and H brother contrete project this weekend. My boss is out of town so I am juggling that as well.

    Aggie: I have no energy to spare. Go suck some from a child like the movie hocus pocus. Children have tons of energy to spare and I am sure their parents would mind.

    JLQ: good luck with orientation!

  • I'll offer my children's energy for anyone looking.
  • Haha @degrea. Suck energy from a child to give it to a child so I can have mine back ;-)

    I love that movie v

  • So I'm trying to switch my phone number over to a straight talk plan and it's taking foreverrrrrr. They said it could take up to two business days, and it's been that long already so I'm angry now.

  • Hola. It's my day off thank goodness because all I have energy for is to sit in my comfy chair and play on the internet.

    I am loving your movie references Degrea! They make me smile. But sorry you are surrounded by idiots.

    I'm reading my clinical handbook. It's 52 pages long and is on the computer. My eyes hurt from reading it. Ugh.

    PS: I'm now a cool kid with a smart phone!

  • Ok, someone teach me how to post from my phone puhlease? I don't know how to do anything. hahahah! My little sister had to teach me how to use my phone last night. I felt like a 90 year old lady learning how to use a computer for the first time.

    Wohoo new phone. When I post I just go on the internet like I would on any computer and post. I am not sure if that's the easiest way but it works for me.

    Also reading on the computer screen hurts my eyes as well. That's why when they claimed they were going to make our office paperless I laughed! I print anything out over 2 pages!

  • Jlq I think you just open the web browser but I don't have an iPhone so I am not sure.
    Today makes me want to quit my job. This place is making me nuts right now. And the gossip omg the gossip. >_<

  • I'll have to try it again. I tried it yesterday, but I couldn't post so I dunno. Oh well! 

    I'm sorry you had a bad day at work! Do you have to work tomorrow? If so, I hope it's better for you.

    Aggie do you work with mostly males or females? I find that I enjoy the gossip at work because it usually About who retiring next and really rare. Haha! Hope today goes better!

    I am so sleepy today and just don't wanna!

  • I'm exhausted. I think I've worked too much and have worn myself out. I know a lot of people would think what I do is easy and couldn't possible be hard work but it is and it's tiring and I worked 11 days in a row. I couldn't get out of bed this morning. I feel like I could sleep all day.

    My orientation yesterday was kind of silly. I didn't learn anything I didn't already know, except that we don't have to order the exact uniform pants they sell at the book store. Which is good, because I tried those ones on and they fit awful! So I'm now on a hunt for nice fitting khaki colored scrub bottoms. haah!

  • TGIF! Driving home from work yesterday I thought it was Friday then quickly realized my mistake boo. But it is here now!

    @degrea I work with all women. The only makes are the boss and the college age cleaning guy.

    It's always so and so us mad. Have you heard about so and sos problem etc etc. It doesn't flipping matter. A few are so bad they will text whomever is not there so they can be the one to share the news. Ugh.

    Jlq I would be exhausted too. Hopefully it will calm down a bit here soon. And yay for finding your own scrubs.

    Can I take a nap now?

  • Oh that would drive me nuts, Aggie. 
    Take a nap! You've earned it.

    We're going home for the weekend and it's going to be very busy! We're spending tonight with DH's nana&papa, going to his family reunion tomorrow. Then tomorrow afternoon we're driving to my hometown for the fireman's carnival and then Sunday my little sister is moving!! She finally found an apartment out here and she's moving Sunday. So pretty busy for us. 
    My mouth is really sore...stupid tooth. :(  Guess it's time to bite the bullet and go to the dentist. Anyone want to come hold my hand? hahha.

    Yea that would get to me to Aggie! Stupid gossip!! Hope you get some rest this weekend!

    JLQ: sounds like a busy weekend for you. Also sounds like it is time to go to the dentist! Have a good one!

    This weekend I have scrapbooking date with SIL. H is working on pull barn floors with his brother all weekend. Should be a relaxing but exhausting weekend. Hope everyone has a good one! Weather suppose to be nice here at least!

  • Jlq. You know if you went more frequently the less likely you are to have appointments that are painful ;-). But I hope you get it taken care of soon.

    Degrea have fun scrapbooking this weekend.

    And thanks. I feel much better today. Hopefully week 10 brings more energy and less symptoms. I can hope right?

  • Yes. I know my fear is all in my head and there's nothing to worry about and the dentist isn't that bad and if I went I'd have less problems. But I don't care. I hate the dentist and I'll always fear going and I will always put it off until I absolutely have to go. I despise the dentist and it gives me so much anxiety. 

    Such a busy weekend!! The good news is we got my little sister pretty much all moved it. She'll just have some little stuff to bring back over. 

    Hope you had fun scrapping, Degrea!!

    Aggie I hope you got to relax some this weekend!

  • I understand fears can be quite irrational. I tried to say that in jest but I think that was lost. I understand sorry it's so stressful.

    In all honesty going regularly and not dealing with the terrible pain that it rakes for you to go now may eventually help with your anxiety but that is easier to say than to do I get it. I hope you get this tooth issue fixed and feel better.
