Good morning?

Is it possible that the girl who is never here is the girl who is posting the hello?!  How did that happen?

 

Course, I'm only here for another 5 seconds before I run into a meeting, but whatever THE POINT IS I'M HERE.

Hi! :D

 

Re: Good morning?

  • Geez Snippy. Way to not have a QOTD! Stick out tongue I kid, I kid!

    Good morning. I'm mentally preparing to host another conference today. I'm extremely tired. I was up until midnight working last night. work at the moment is more stressful than it's ever been. H called me yesterday to see how I was doing, and I had to struggle not to break down. But, I pulled it together and successfully made it through the day.

    I feel bad because a friend is in town from the states this week, and this is has literally been the busiest week I've had all year. Not to mention I've been sick. I feel so bad that the timing hasn't been the best.

    QOTD: What's for breakfast? 

    Boring, I know, but I had something out of my usual today and am sitting here enjoying it as we speak. Granola, yogurt and honey with a cup of coffee.

  • Morning, thank you Snippy!

    I'm heading out for a run with H then home to do yoga. He's working from home today and we have to run a few errands this afternoon, not too exciting.

    QOTD: I had a blueberry/banana muffin after the run I'll probably have some eggs or granola and yogurt.

  • Helllllooooo Snippy!  We miss you around here.  I hope things are going well at work?

    Nothing too special going on for me today.  I ended up staying up late last night - Titanic was on and I am such a sucker for that movie Embarrassed.  But I'm not too tired today.  DH has a work dinner, so I'm probably going to go to the gym this evening.

    QOTD: I had granola with fresh strawberries and skim milk, and cranberry juice.  I'm trying to eat my breakfast at home more, and I need some more ideas.

  • Yo, Snip! :D 

    Breakfast? Uh, I guess I'm having a root beer barrel. I really need to get better about breakfast again. I used to be religious about it but mornings have gotten weird lately.

  • Morning!

    Nothing on the books for today, I'm trying to keep the start of a cold from becoming full blown :( I had to cancel lunch with a friend because I didn't want her DD to get sick.

    QOTD: Special K. Yup I'm that boring :)

  • Good Afternoon!

    Today is a good news/bad news day

    Bad news: Delta did have to have the eye surgery and she is spending the night at the vet

    Good news 1:  She'll be fine

    Good news 2: The bldg engineer just left and we can take out as much of the kitchen interior wall as we want without adding a steel beam. 

    Good News 3:  H has been after me to pick out a bed frame.  I haven't found any that excite me enough to spend money on.  Today we were a furniture store and they had a Tempurpedic padded Queen headboard display unit, on sale for $50. We couldn't make a padded headboard for that.    Now I get to pick out pretty fabric and we will have a headboard sorted!

    Bad news 2:  H won't buy me the 8 burner, dual oven, stand alone oven for the kitchen re-do.  Something about it being $$17,000.... Stick out tongue

  • Good Morning!  I've been gone for a what seems like forever from here.  We were in Italy for 8 days and the IL's are still here.  I'm taking advantage of my FIL watching Will while I "get ready" for the day.....AKA mess around on the computer.  :)  

    QOTD:  I had a scone with strawberry preserves on it and it was delicious.   

  • Morning!

     Not too much on tap for today - working on our pictures from our trip, organizing, etc. and doing some stuff around the house. Already worked on my CV a bit today so feeling good about that. 

    QOTD: Nothing too exciting -  a few pieces of turkey bacon and a latte.

  • Morning.  I'm at work, have a faculty meeting, and then finally (thank goodness) getting my roots done.  While I have a bunch of white hair, my dark brown hair remaining is making my blond look trashy!  Next time I schedule for well before six weeks is over (my colorist's suggestion).  And then a meal at the ILs.

    QOTD:  had breakfast at work (love that I got this for about ?1): two pieces of whole wheat toast, one bit of jam for one of the slices and eggs on the other slice.

  • Morning!  I'm tired today...and realized I have the unwelcome visitors called hemorrhoids last night.  Just not feeling too hot.  My plan is to do a little bit of laundry and veg out on the couch most of the day.  

    QOTD: Activia with fiber, a glass of milk, a muffin, and now an apple with peanut butter.  Not too shabby.

  • Hah, this is what I get for starting the morning post and then finishing it 30 mins later.   Tonight I go to the gym and pack!  I feel guilty for leaving FH alone with some friends of his (from the US here on a tour group, crazy huh) but I missed the gym yesterday and this is my last week with it before the wedding so I need to take advantage.

    QOTD:  apple before a walk/run then some yogurt with honey and almonds.  It filled me up till 1pm surprisingly.

  • Good morning! Today has ups and downs for me.

    Up: I did not have my usual 6:30 AM meeting, so I got to sleep in a bit.
    Down: My stomach is upset. I hope I'm not sick and I hope I didn't eat anything bad.
    Up: I was able to get in a good workout on my bike trainer this morning.
    Down: H just left for the US (for work) and I'm feeling really bummed that he is going home and I'm not.
    Up: At least I can set the A/C warm enough not to wear sweats now that he's gone.

    QOTD: I had overnight oats for breakfast: oats, yogurt, vanilla protein powder, and pomegranate

  • Running errands today. Fun fun. Maybe zumba tonight but DH is meeting the landlord during my zumba class so I don't think I'll have a ride.

  • Morning! I got an extension on my Italian paper until next week so I'm feeling much more relaxed today. Working at the library and class. Then a friend might convince me to get back into yoga with her this evening. We'll see.

    QOTD: We had friends over for dinner last night. So breakfast was leftover chocolate cake. I figure it's gotta be eaten someway!

  • How's the pup, Snippy?

    No school on Wednesdays for M, so this afternoon I'm taking him to the beach.

    QOTD: I had a soft boiled egg with a piece baguette and some grapes.

  • Nothing going on today, just dusting and organizing. It's cold today, so I doubt I'll be taking D to the park as planned.

    QOTD: oatmeal, a peach and 1/4 c. raspberries

  • Morning, ladies :) Just came back from a walk with the puppy -- BF and the pup just had a game of peek-a-boo going on as well...adorable.

    Off to work in a few min.  Hoping for a great day!

    QOTD: Just finished...multi-grain squares -- imagine Triscuits as cereal -- with blueberries and almond milk.  So good!

  • Good morning! Nothing going on here, it's miserable and rainy out so I'm just looking forward to getting home and curling up on the couch. I am honestly really, really struggling right now. I just need to believe I'll feel better some day, this is seriously brutal. So, so much respect for people who do this more than once. Or people who do this and have other responsibilities, I just have to drag myself to work and back. 

    QODT: I had a yogurt at 7am and a granola bar at 10am and a wrap at 12... I'm on a 2 hour eating schedule! Am already hungry again though so it's not working as well as it was for a while...

  • Good morning!

    It's a beautiful fall day here. Nothing special for today. I stayed up a bit late last night and had a nice sleep in (I work in the evenings). Planning on doing some housework, making dinner, prepping my lesson for tonight, and then going to teach. My schedule seems to be in reverse. 

    QOTD: Woke up late, so I went straight to lunch. Healthy Shrimp Parm Hero.
