I have the same ol’ name. I’m fine with it. Long work day, one more to do. Dinner was courtesy of Jimmy Johns. Sometimes, a BLT is just the thing. I’m glad they didn’t find cancer, \*\*2gig. \*\* I think I’m going to kick back soon and see what’s on the ol’ boob tube. ---

Oh, my! All these names are… frightening! 😃 **Puggy**! Welcome back! You share great pics on FB, but it’s nice to see you in on the conversation here. Haven’t read enough. Not sure where the week went. Plants are starting to say goodbye for the winter. ☹ I still have bulbs to plant and more plants to cut down. Looks like I should be able to get that done in the coming week. Yay! I should be asleep by now… Hugs all. GT ---

And now for today’s mono complaint… I decided on Monday that since I was feeling better that I’d restart the C25K program that I’d been using. Remember how I’d run a 6 mile race on Labor Day? Um, yeah, in 38 minutes I barely completed 1.7 miles and I was so tired that my legs literally didn’t want to work. The track is up one level and I had to sit down and rest before walking down the stairs to the locker room. I called the doctor and she told me no more exercise indefinitely. Since then I have been fighting to remain upright, awake, and barely functional and my legs quit cooperating with me by a certain point in the day. This thoroughly sucks. Oh, and the one thing that I’ve found that makes me feel a little better? Eating more food gives me more energy. So, I can count calories, but they’re going to be a bit high just so that I can freaking function to make it through the day. /mono rant of the day, weak, year, century ETA: Oh, wait, I do have some good news. RT will be home today! 😃 ---

I am at irk, it is irksome. I am the only admin person around, we have an open day tomorrow so guess who’s setting up the publicity stand and generally saving the day again? They’ll miss me when I’m gone… In other news, it is chip shop lunch day with the girls today so I am very shortly skipping off to the Public Health building for a very unhealthy meal! ---

I’m ready to go to the airport too early. As per usual. Now I have to sit around for an hour before my taxi shows up. And think about all the expensive makeup in my bag that I’m hoping the TSA doesn’t take away from me. 🙂 ---

Haven’t done it in a few years and won’t unless I just have too. I like this irk from home deal. I really should do it more often. ---

All the rush-rush-people-are-judging-you of airports these days makes me antsy, and the actual flying part makes me antsier. The good news? There is a bottle of Xanax in my purse, ready to go. 🙂 ---
