Hello all,

I'm making a quick post before heading to bed.

Last night at work was horrible. I had a patient who hadn't quite sobered up. He was crude, rude, and very grabby. I don't get paid enough to put up with that. It is over. The most frustrating thing is that I can't even reply. I am supposed to just ignor it, but it is sexual harrassment. Ugh. At least I won't be around when he goes through DT's.

The Communion was lovely. Afterwards, there was a party at the golf course. I had a salad and some green beans. I made some eggs when I got home. I wasn't even tempted by the cake and goodies. I did overindulge in coffee, but with only 2 hours of sleep, I'm not beating myself up over it. There was a Moonwalk. I even got in there for a while. Katie was so cute. She asked Ryan, my friends son, to marry her. They picked dandelions for a boquet, and she borrowed Kelly's veil. They pretended to get married , and even kissed. It was sweet and hilarious.

Recap.
Meds 8/8.
Water 8/8
Exercise 7/8
Family 8/8
Food 8/8

Have a good one.
Beth

Glad you had a good day. Happy Mother's Day. With every post I read of yours, I am so glad I do not work on an adult floor! Thank God for nurses who will work with adults! Have a good one.

Wishing you a Happy Mother's day!

Happy Mother's Day, Beth! I hope that you have a wonderful day today!

That is so cute about Katie and Ryan! It's funny because when I was in preschool, my friend and I also made plans to be "married". Guess what his name was?...... Ryan!!!! Needless to say, we didn't get married, but his mom still talks about it to this very day! What a wonderful memory for you to tuck away into your heart.

I'm sorry that you had to put up with that guy at work yesterday. No one should have to put up with that. Hopefully, you won't have to see him again.

Well, Beth, I am going to close for now. Hope you have a wonderful day Beth! Happy Mother's Day!!

What a great Mother's day. Won got up with Katie, si I slept until 10AM. I weighed myself for the Mother's day challenge. I've lost 1 more pound, so I HAVE A BRAND NEW CLIPPIE! Much better than the gift won got me. He got me a new sautee pan. In his defense, I did say a couple of weeks ago that I need one, but not as my gift. I love him to death, but when it comes gifts, he is very challenged.

Tonight is dinner with my inlaws, at least it is at Mountain Jack's. I knw the clippie will keep me in line. I don't want to lose it.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Mother's Day.
Beth

Congrats on your new clippie! Happy Mother's Day to you.

Hey Beth! Congratulations on your new clippie! 50 POUNDS...WOW!!! Now, that's progress!

That Katie of yours sounds like she is sooo outgoing! She's certainly not shy, is she? I have a daughter that if something comes to mind, then it come out of her mouth. Katie sounds like she is just a joy!!!

I think that alot of men are the way Won is when it comes to gifts.

Have a great day!

Carol

Wilderness and Carol, thanks for celbrating with me.

Dinner with my inlaws wasn't too bad. MIL was at the other end of the table, so I didn't have to talk with her much. I know I sound small, but I have tried to be nice anf get her to like me for 14 years. I can't change my ethnicity. It isn't going to happen, so I can't waste anymore energy on it.

Mountain Jack's was fabulous. I started with shrimp cocktail, no sauce. Salad with ranch. Prime rib with sauteed veggies and broccoli. There was a yummy looking chocolate pecancaramel cake, but BIL ate my piece. All in all, delicious and on plan.

I need to start getting ready for Katie's bday party. I need to clean the house top to bottom this week. I still have to get her bday present. I'm getting her a tiny bike. I have to figure out decorations and food. It is just family, so it won't be huge. It is still work, but worth it.

Headed to the Y for weight training. I've decided that on days I do weight trainig, I'll do the bike, andd on my cardio days,I'll do the treaddie. Mix things up a little.

Have a good one,
Beth

Thanks Erin, We posted at the same time.

Have fun planning that party. They are only little for so long. I know it seems overwhelming when the house needs to be cleaned, the food bought, prepared, decorations to be put up, etc. but it will be worth it when you see her smiling face. At least that is what I tell myself when I am up to my eyeballs in cleaning before the party. It helps!

Your dinner sounded great! Good for you that you survived your MIL. Maybe are we married to brothers with the same nasty mother? I have tried for 20 years and I am NOW DONE with trying to please her. So there, now I sound small too. Have a good one.

 

[toystoryduo]

Hi Beth!
Just stopping by to WISH you a wonderful day today! Hope everything is going well! Take care!

WOW- this is something to celebrate!!! 50 pounds. When you do your weight training you should lift 50 pounds and just stop and think about what you have accomplished. It really is amazing. Have fun planning and getting ready for Katie's party.
Have a great day!

Mary

:thewave: :thewave: :thewave: :thewave: !! I knew that clippie was in your near future, Beth!! Congrats! Good luck with all the party planning. We have so many people to invite to ds's parties, I get the thrill of planning two each year . But it's all worth it in the end and your child is smiling . Wishing you a great day !

Thanks to all for joining my clippie party.

Today was busy. We had a double dance lesson, grocery shopping, and swim lessons today. Won took Katie to swim lessons, so I could clean the upstairs. I did this instead of exercising. There are just so many hours in the day. Found out that the photographer won't be available for the whole day on Saturday, so Katie's group dance picture is now on Sunday. This means that we have church, her picture, her party and soccer practice on Sunday. It will be a logistical nightmare. Oh well.
Breakfast: Atkins shake- I wasn't hungry.
Lunch: Salad with ranch dressing.
Dinner wings yummy!
I did have a snack of celery with peaanut butter.

I've had 3l so far.
Recap..
1.) meds. 11/111
2.) Water 11/11
Exercise 8/11
4.) Food 11/11
5.) Family 11/11

I need to work on exercising. I really don't have much of an excuse today. WILL go to the Y tomorrow.
Have a good one. Sorry I haven't hit journals lately. I'll try to do better.

Beth
