Good Morning! / myLot

It is January 6th and I'm just not feeling it this morning. My head is pounding, my stomach is upset, my throat hurts and I just wanna be back in bed. Can't though, too much to do. My husband is still getting over being sick, my dad has a dr appointment today about his surgery on Thursday and mom needs help...that part isn't new though. We're in for some cold weather. Whether we get the ice and snow I'm not sure. I know it's going to get colder today and we had a lot of rain so it may freeze. We had our department meeting yesterday and of course it went the way I thought it would. Just wait till next year though. I'm running for safety officer and I hope I get it. As for our little station, who knows what's going to happen. We'll probably station commander-less again this year. Might be a show though. I start back with Chris's grandmother tomorrow. Today we have someone coming to look at our dryer. It just stopped working. So hopefully we get it fixed before we really need it. I don't have a puzzle in the works right now because i need to glue the Harry Potter one that I finished 2 days ago. I'll get there i just need parchment paper. The shop is getting ready for Valentine's Day. I have two bundles and a bunch of stuff in the making. Hopefully it'll be a great holiday :) I'm still reading the Mirror by Nora Roberts. By the time I got in and settled last night I just didn't see the point in opening my book to just shut it again. Plus I started not feeling well. There are so many meetings coming up and trainings. I'm really excited for this year. I hope everyone has a great day today!

I hope you get better soon this week. Hopefully there will be less snow in Tennessee. I too had the Monday blues. There are a pile of work pending from the holidays and also from things to be completed. Yet to complete them. Have partially completed a few. Weather is getting warmer. It seems the summer is going to be long and hard this time. Worried on the heatwaves and water challenges like last time. I also see unwanted events and meeting scheduled for next month. Do not want to be part of something I do not find interesting but it has been made mandatory. I have goals for the year and hope to reach them. Well , take care!

I hope so too, thank you. I have so much to do. I hope you meet your goals this year. I have some of my own that I'm working on. It'll take all year to get there but it'll be worth it. The meetings and events aren't so much that I don't want to be a part of but there's just so many. I never realized how many I go to until they were written down in the planner.

Thank you. I think I'll be ok tomorrow. Usually it's just a small bug for me

Illnesses are going around. It sounds like you caught one of them. Take care of yourself. If it gets worse, go to your doctor or urgent care. You may need antibiotics. Hope you have a happy and prosperous new year.

It's just a cold. I broke it last night. Thankfully lol. No one shares germs like kids and husbands/wives. It's funny though, I'm an EMT and don't believe in Doctors.
