Rebecca...enjoy your ME time!

Linda....sorry about your dentist issue. I know the pain you are going through. I am discouraged by the dentist problems I have. My jaw is okay. Tooth hole is still a bit sore, but I will live. Need to move forward with the other tooth root canal and whatnot. I hate all this. And thanks for the info about lithotripsy. Sounds interesting and hopefully it will work.

I am in a foul mood today for some reason. I can't seem to get myself out of it, even after going to the gym this morning for Zumba. I had to deal with the cable company twice and I am pretty sure I am not done with them. They are honestly as bad to deal with as the insurance company.

Janine I looked up lithotripsy, I wondered what it was too.
Lithotripsy is the use of high-energy shock waves to fragment and disintegrate kidney stones. The shock wave, created by using a high-voltage spark or an electromagnetic impulse outside of the body, is focused on the stone. The shock wave shatters the stone, allowing the fragments to pass through the urinary system. Since the shock wave is generated outside the body, the procedure is termed extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy
How your Jaw ?
My dentist was in an accident so my appointment was canceled and reschedualed for May 3rd. I feel like I'm in a bad movie called the Never Ending Crown Affair.

Rebecca hope you enjoy your down time.

I was at my daughters for a couple of days and even though her hubby is an IT teck of the 4 house computers only 1 works and that is a notebook with a very small screen, so limited sp time for me.

Since my hubby was gone last weekend my daughter asked for some Daddy time today. Going to head out by myself pretty soon and do some errands, maybe visit my dad, etc.. if I get home in time I might go for a long walk. Hubby is going out tonight but I think I have about 7 hours to myself today. My list is longer than that though. Lol! Have a good day everyone.

My mouth continues to be a bit sore. I haven't had a tooth out in a long time, so I can't remember how long it should take before it stops feeling sore. It doesn't help that I have a hard time keeping food out of the hole (as well as my tongue).

Rebecca....I hope your displacement ends soon at work.

Well I guess no one else was able to make it in here yesterday besides me.

So... what's new? Day 4 of renovations in my office. They keep telling me I can go back to my desk and then booting me back out again. I am next to where most of the work is happening and they have to disconnect my electrical to do what they are doing. Hopefully it will be finished by today.

There is a potluck for lunch today. I made some cookies but I don't plan to eat any. Hoping I can still manage to get out for a quick walk too. Maybe I can ditch the party early and get outside for 15 minutes.

Polly- I am actually OLDER than your Jen. I just turned 41. My daughter will be 6 in April.

I use Turbo for my taxes, but you can claim the money that you spend on your tax preparations as a deductible so I don't worry about it. I don't spend $100 on Turbo though. It's more like $50.

We got the stove hooked up today but I have not even been in the kitchen.
I spent from 1:00 until 8:30 working on my taxes and still not sure if I have them done right. My sister is coming over tomorrow to double check for me before I file them. I went with Tax Act again this year, this will be the 3rd year and I find them to be very confusing. Just couldn't see spending $100 for Turbo when they are $18. Can't wait until we don't have to file any more.

Had a great time at Eric Carle yesterday. Hubby didn't make it home from his trip until after supper, but he was back in time to help with our daughter's shower and bedtime etc.

Today is definitely a "Monday" for me. Construction going on in my office, my eyeglasses broke, didn't have enough groceries in the house to make lunch, and my car is just about out of gas. At least I'll get a walk in today when I go to the pharmacy with hubby hopefully.

Beautiful day today, took my sister out for a ride and lunch.
Stove gets hooked up tomorrow at 9am. Had to wait because they charge more on weekends ($99 an hour and $55 trip fee during the week) and we didn't know what time it wascoming on Friday. I think I'll make meatloaf, baked potato and butter braid for my first meal. Not sure what the veggie will be, maybe broccoli.

Polly- wow... Jen & I share a bday? cool! how old is she?

Janine - yes, now that I think about it I have done a few of these trips with my daughter. I thnk this was the 3rd one. We stayed in Milford & went to Southwick's zoo, and we stayed somewhere near Worcester and went to the Ecotarium.

Did end up going to Old Sturbridge Village again today. With my teacher union discount I got in for 1/2 price. However they also have a deal where if you go back within 10 days of buying your ticket you get in the 2nd time free if you pay full price for your ticket so it would have cost the same for the 2 days even if I didn't have the discount.

Also reunited with my foster sister after 30 years which was pretty cool. Kids got along great too which was nice.

Polly...sorry to hear about Jen's pain! I cannot understand why hospitals make you wait so long.

Rebecca....didn't you and your daughter have a similar trip last year? I have never been to Sturbridge, but hear great things about it.

Linda.....I'm excited about your new stove! I find that ridiculous that you have to wait until Monday to get hooked up though.

left by the wayside~So many upset~The Dr tried to treat her for fibromyalgia & stomach pains
She told them it was Kidney stones~So sad~She got out & home aft midnight~Tommy went to
get her & they forgot to discharage her~She just wanted to get home~No help for the pain~
BSM has the worse ER & something should be said to complain~Even Dr's mention how bad it's gotten~Sending so much love & Hearts to all~I have such bad alergies terrible~Ears are

We all have the day off today in my house. I am taking my daughter to Sturbridge this afternoon. We will stay overnight at the Comfort Inn, and maybe go back to the Village again tomorrow.

The tickets are supposed to be good for 2 visits within 10 days so I think this plan will work.

Polly- My birthday was March 11th and my mom's was March 13th. My father's mother's is/was March 17th but she passed away in October 2010. She would be 101 this year. I have an ex-boyfriend who I thought I would marry at one point in my life who is celebrating his 40th birthday today. Really lots of March birthdays in my life. :-)

I flunked the iron test at the blood drive. On my right hand I only had a 10 point something, and on my left I had an 11.3 I think. You have to have a 12.5 for them to take your blood. It took about an hour of paperwork, waiting, answering questions etc, to get to that point of being turned down. They let me have the promo items anyway, which was nice. When I was done I called my hubby and then I got some lunch in one of the campus cafeterias. Hubby found me and sat down and we talked about whether or not I needed to see the doctor. Decided I didn't need to go. At that point I could have gone back to work for an hour, but it was SO nice outside I really couldn't drag myself back to the office. When I came in this morning I put it down for an hour of personal time. After my lunch I went for a short walk on campus, carrying my big backpack so I didn't feel like doing a long walk. Then I ran some errands and just enjoyed the sunshine a little. Picked up my daughter from school and we got home an hour earlier than usual. She was happy about that. She says she is feeling really tired and I believe her.

I think with the warmer weather she is running around more outside at recess and at after school and she is getting worn out. Poor kid has no idea that we have big plans for the weekend! Haha. :-)

I am starting the Spring 5% Challenge as a member of the Determined Daisies team. This will be my 3rd 8 week challenge on Spark. It officially kicks off on Saturday, but I'll be doing my weigh-ins on Fridays like I always do.

I have Friday off from work. It is a "floating holiday" at UMass, and my daughter doesn't have school because it's a curriculum day for the teachers.

Janine- work is going to be bad for me for the next few weeks. Nothing I can do about it. I just have to suck it up and accept it. Thanks though.

I'm giving blood today at 1pm and not coming back to my desk when I'm done. We get 2 hours to do it, and by the time I recover that is probably about how long it will take. I was pretty shaky last time after I did it.

Have a good day everyone.

My friend who died was 39. ... so your daughter's friend's brother... was he in Maine by any chance? My friend had a half or step brother and sister.

Not going to get the bike going yet. Got a helmet yesterday but haven't figured out whether the bike rack we have will work on my vehicle or not.

I do have the day off though because my daughter doesn't have school. It's kindergarten registration day. Hoping we will do something fun like go to a children's museum or an art museum but realistically we might just stay local, maybe go to a library or a park etc.. we'll see.

Started my day by reading about a friend's suicide on Facebook. I had known him for 25 years I guess. Met him when he was 14, and he was 39 when he died.

My status says "not in the mood", at least it does right now when I'm writing this. I didn't know what to post as a status this morning after reading about the suicide.

This afternoon we met my father and girlfriend for lunch to celebrate my birthday. We actually ran into them before lunch at the Tractor Supply Store, and then again after lunch at the grocery store. Not hugely surprised to see them grocery shopping but was pretty shocked to see them at the tractor store. Anyway, my dad's girlfriend made a cake and frosting from scratch and my daughter really, really loved it. My daughter did great with them today and it made me very happy. When we got home my husband commented that my dad needs a hearing aide. Yup, we are all getting older that is for certain.

Anyway, kind of a roller coaster day hearing about the death of a friend and trying to celebrate my birthday at the same time.

Rebecca I was very tired last night also. I went to bed at 10 ( early for me usually up any where from 1-3) and slept until 8:30. Still feel like I could sleep for 6 more hours.

Good for you Janine!

I didn't even go out at lunchtime yesterday. I just felt too beat I guess. I have Monday off so I am about 7 hours away from a 3-day weekend.

I am resetting my goals today I think. I expect a semi-quiet work day so I should have some Spark time later on.

I had a training to attend today and then had lunch with friends. Being free at 1:00 was odd, but I enjoyed poking around at TJ Maxx. I refused to feel guilty about not being at work! It was such a lovely day too. It was a nice treat for me.

Polly hope everyone is feeling better soon.
We got the first stove we looked at; at home depot. It's out of stock so no stove until the 16th.
The Coral wa ok but the utensils still had food on them. Not sure if we will go back.
Rebecca hope you enjoyed the warm day and that your coughing fits get better.
Janine we got our tiles at grossmans but have also gotten flooring at home depot. We weren't impressed with lowes.
Keeping fingers crossed the computer is being good today.

Polly- I am sorry Tom and you are not feeling well. Such a hard time when people don't sleep well. I was awake about every 2 hours myself last night. Woke up at 11pm and thought it was morning then realized hubby hadn't come to bed yet. Woke up at 1am and found hubby asleep in the living room so I told him to go to bed. I guess he did eventually. Oh well.

I am cruising toward a 3 day weekend. I am taking Monday off because my daughter doesn't have school. We have birthday celebrations coming up during the weekend too. So I am just coasting. Not being too hard on myself, just trying to go with the flow.
