Great! It sounds like a good oppurtunity. Princeton is a nice town, lots of personality. Hopefully they will offer you a ton of money so you can come visit DFW whenever you want and allieviate the worry about being away from your family.
Dear Summer,
Hope you feel better soon.

Dear Teammate who will not be named,
Why must you make things so difficult. Youkeep information that would be important to my decision and wait until after I have made my decision to tell me this important piece of info.
-Boss that is torn on what to do
I think it is an awesome opportunity, especially given the lack of open positions around our area. However, I also know how incredibly close you are with your family and completely understand your feelings regarding moving so far away. If only that job was in Texas.
I'm having to teach. Dumb kids. J/K. Sort of.
Dear Coworker -
You've been in a really b!tchy mood for weeks now. If you have time to SHREAD you are not that busy. Get over yourself.
Sincerely,
Someone who is THANKFULLY on vacation starting tomorrow at lunch and doens't have to deal with your attitude!
Dear Nesties,
We miss you! Sorry I stalk over here! I'll join you in 6 weeks.

Dear Nest gals (I still have a hard time saying nesties),
Maybe we should do a survey or fun facts? Something to get some conversation flowing?
-Bored me
I cannot wait to see everything come together for your wedding.
You should start one! :-) I forgot to ask you, how long did it take you to get your marriage license? Hopefully it came pretty quick!

Wow 6 weeks? Time is going by so fast! Congrats! Can't wait to see pics!
I got it not last Thur but the Thur before so it took almost a month. Now I just need to find the time to get everything changed. I was going to go to the Carrollton DPS tonight but I have a job fair till 9pm.
I'm just glad you finally got it! I know...why can't the DPS and the social security office be open during more convenient hours?! :-p

Dear Nesties,
I'm a lurker today also. I was swamped this morning at work so I may be able to check this out throughout the rest of the afternoon.
Dear Chick-fil-A,
Thanks for the yummy lunch today! It was a nice change up!
Dear Nesties,
I'm ditching the format.
-Me
I have a problem. I eat poorly at breakfast and lunch during the week. I have to stop this trend, immediately. I pack nice healthy lunches but I get so disgusted with my job that by lunch time I'm like "screw it I need chicken nuggets and coke" and head off to Chick Fil A.
Speaking of Chick Fil A, I got a kids meal at lunch and I have a toy for whoever has a baby first. Haha. Actually, I might open it because it is a disguise kit. It sounds fun.
Tiffany-
I can relate, I have been doing the opposite. I eat so healthy for breakfast and lunch but by the time I get home I am so over it I just eat whatever. I am ashamed to admit it but yesterday I seriously had a cup o noodles and a kit kat for dinner. I have GOT to stop!
I get that way sometimes too and go out and eat something I probably shouldn't. And that toy sounds awesome! What is it exactly?

I'm disappointed.... its just a person on a card and stickers to disguise him. It's like a paper doll kind of.
I'm bummed, I was hoping for some glasses and a mustache.
Sarah -
Did you pass Eli? Who did you pass her to??

LOL.
Do you mean poorly at breakfast by not eating or you go for a doughnut? DH never ate breakfast until January and he got put in charge of breakfast so he makes us cereal and we have it every day. I love breakfast foods so it's a tad boring always having cereal but it's one meal that I don't mind being the same everyday because it's in the morning and I'm not exactly awake.
As for lunch, one thing that keeps me eating what I brought, is the price. Maybe try eating your lunch that you brought elsewhere away from your desk and figure out if it's the desire to get away that you need or that you actually want Chick Fil A.
Bobbiliegh- DH is really bad at eating out and would do it every meal if we could. Some days it is so easy to just go out instead of cook. Usually I start out the week well but it crashes and burns by Wednesday; Thursday we have class so we usually eat out and Friday DH wants everything that is bad for you so we make a trip to the store. I don't know what it is about Friday's. Our week did not start out well because we went to Freebird's last night but I know this is a crappy week to begin with so I am just trying to go with it and make healthy choices. Because I am starting to work out nearly every day after work, I don't have as much time to spend on supper so I've been trying to come up with meal plans and cook what I can ahead or even double a recipe and freeze it for later on a less convenient night.
Jaymi - Err, a doughnut would probably be better. Mine usually involves a biscuit or toast, cheese, and bacon, ham, or sausage...and a coke. Sometimes out, but usually at home.
I try to eat cereal or waffles and whatnot but I'm always starving by 10:30 am. I bring fruit and other snacks to tide me over but it still doesn't cut it.
I guess I should add that I don't eat big at night. I will have a grilled protein and a veggie usually, sometimes rice. That's probably why I crave the majority of my calories in the AM and for lunch.
Yes I did! I passed her to Deepthi :-)
Tiffany- I was hoping for a mustache in the disguise kit as well! :-p

I feel like I am constantly drinking but more can't hurt! The only banana I have is frozen- I set it out this morning to mix it with strawberries and that Kefir drink Leslie told me about. I get them every once in awhile but not this bad and not this often.
Until now, cereal did not last very long with me so I never could do it because I would always be hungry, especially if it's a sugary cereal, 15 minutes later. I was real leery when DH started making it and I would pack a peanut butter flop over because I had been doing peanut butter sandwiches for breakfast. Over time, I've been able to last longer and longer.
DH had cokes daily if not a few times a day until he watched this video, now he has one maybe once a week. I have not seen it because I rarely do cokes (until recently when I started craving root beer every day). You have been cautioned and I apologize if it's the most horrific thing ever.

Yeahhh...that school of thought doesn't phase me. If I was worried about what in our foods is killing me or giving me cancer then I'd never eat.
Plus, I have one can of coke per day. I don't think that will kill me.
