Day 90 – The Last Day of Panda Express

Tonight I went to get Panda Express for the last time before my restrictions / diet change, whatever you wanna call it.  How about just being healthier :)  I did get something for tomorrow lunch / dinner.

I watched most of the new season of Archer, well the one that was just released on Netflix.  It was pretty good.  I am really loving this show :)

I played tennis with the puppies and they, as usual were giving 110% at it.  I had to stop because they both were trying to catch the ball after bouncing it on the carport and like fell on their sides.  They just go all out :)

I was supposed to go to a lunch thing with work and I just couldn’t make it and I feel really bad for it.  I should have just gone but it was a bit social and I was anxious about it.  Funny how that works.

As usual that’s it for today and catch you tomorrow :)

Day 89 – The Day TSA Saved My Life

Today I was at the REDI Center for CSX doing a training class and I had decided to be fancy.  I wore big girl shoes and that was a huge mistake.  Huge, like gigantic.  I could barely stand during my class and once I got to the airport I went to Brighton and purchased a pair of $40.00 flip flops – AMAZING!

TSA gave me pre-check so not only did I not have to unpack my 2 laptops I didn’t have to take off my jacket, belt, shoes, AND empty my water bottle.  Yes you heard me correctly, they let you keep the liquid in your bottle – how crazy is that?

Needless to say I am still hurting really badly, but not as much as I would be so there is a plus :)

Can’t wait to get home to see the folks and the puppies – and maybe I will write more, but most likely not.

Day 88 – The Day of Tilt Shift

I wanted to take some tilt shift pictures and downloaded a free app to do it, but I don’t think it is the best.  Maybe I will try a pay version or something else but I thought downtown would look good.  For those who don’t know this is the kind of picture where everything looks like a scaled model.

I got my map today and put it up.  I am not 100% happy with it, but I am going to leave it alone for now and will take a picture when I have it finished.

I am headed to Atlanta tomorrow for a presentation and am pretty excited about it actually.  I always like being in front of the users and showing them new things and we have a lot of new ideas to tell them.  I think it is gong to go well.

Alright, I am going to jump in the shower and make sure I am ready for this trip – because I do have to get up early :)

Day 87 – The Day of the Desk

Today was a great day!!  My brother Carlos came over today to help me and my dad make some progress on my desk.  It’s not that he is an expert, but it was some much needed motivation.  I also made sure that I could get the treadmill down to start my running on April 1!!!  I made a calendar and got my sticker up and am just excited.  The only thing I didn’t do today that I should have was washing my bed clothes.  I am going to give in and get a second set and be done with it.

I got my dad to help me this morning to get the door off of the cage in hopes that Dime will actually seek refuge in there from when Nickel is beating up on her.  I think she has been in there several times and Nickel has pulled the bed out several times so I just don’t know what to do with these crazy beasts :)

I now have a lot more sanding to do on the desk, which is fine, but it is hard work.  I need to get me some more masks so I don’t die from all that dust.  Thank goodness it is a soft wood or I would not be able to handle it.  I am going to add a page just for the desk project so I can keep better track of that.  Here is a link to the Projects page and just look for: Wooden Desk.

I can’t remember if I had said, but yesterday I got my new lens for my iphone and I can’t wait to start using it.  April will definitely  be the time since I will be doing the photo a day project.  Oh that reminds me I should probably move that to that page too :)

Now, some pictures :)

Day 86 – The Day I Got My Hair Did :)

I love love love love getting my hair done of course.  It turned out so well and I am so happy.  I also got me a couple new clothing items and used all my coupons and spent 9 cents!!!!

The puppies were being very good today, but when I got home I noticed my room was a wreck and Nickel’s toy box was missing…  I finally found it and it was demolished.  He is amazing.

I stopped at Publix on my way home and grabbed me a pizza for dinner and ice cream – for reasons :)

I got some stuff today, new lens for my iphone and I also got some stuff for the puppy crate, trying to get Dime a “safe” place to stay.  So far I am not sure who likes it better.

I wish I had more to add but I am just so tired that I want to go to bed.

Day 85 – Another Day of The Dog

The dogs had a good day today.  And I say good, but really it was an all about the dog day.  They are getting crazier and crazier.  I had to take Nickel out for a walk about 20:00 because he was so crazy.  I took him to a shopping center and we walked around.  It was good because there was a lot of noises he hadn’t heard and he did really good on the leash and we stopped and sat at the crosswalks.  Love that puppy.  I didn’t take Dime as well just because they acted so opposite at the vet which is the other time they were out so I am a little nervous.  I will take her for sure cause she also needs the exposure.

I spent a lot of time on the website today too and I took a great nap!

I know, such exciting things :)  Keep reading :)

Day 84 – The Last Day Of The Short Week

Today was the last work day this week and it felt great!!!!!  I got a lot done this week really for it being a short week.

The puppies were very happy to see me when I got home, I just love them dogs :)

I am getting my hair done this weekend which always makes me so very happy.  I am not sure I am doing anything crazy this time, last time was pretty drastic.  I am loving how the color stayed in, we were just unsure how that was going to go.

I think me and my dad are going to go get some rocks tomorrow for the driveway.  So the little monsters don’t escape.  I mean dogs – gosh, where did that come from :)

I am going to do some website stuff tonight, like move over the recipes and stuff.  Alright – have a great day!!!!!

Day 83 – The Day Nickel Helped Unpack Amazon Packages

Nickel is always getting into stuff that he shouldn’t.  I mean I guess that is just his breed.  He always like when I open packages, I think he thinks they are always for him.  I at least give him the boxes – no harm in that :)

I am going to take my mom to her meeting tonight so I am gonna have to wait a long time to take my meds – they put me to sleep pretty well.  I wish I had something to do in the hour that she is going to be there but I just don’t.

I had a good day at work and I got to talk to a good friend today so that made me happy.

I am now eating me some ice cream and then going to get food after I drop my mom off :)

I asked my two coworkers if they wanted to participate in the picture a day and they said yes!  So we will see how this goes :)

Now I am going to watch some YouTube and then just chill :)

Day 82 – The Day of the Nap

Today I felt so bad that I came home early from work and slept for most of the afternoon.  I am getting so worn out from not being able to sleep to sleeping and being tired all the time to having all the feels and then no feels.  I did good in the afternoon with the doggies and then not so good when it came to bed time.  I just got done taking them out and playing tennis for a while.  They need it EVERYDAY!!!!  We had leftovers for dinner and it was good.

My mom fell in the kitchen tonight.  She didn’t call out for me, but I heard it and came out.  She was almost crying then she said – Diana, someone has my ice cream!  So her number one priority is ice cream and then herself.  The ice cream was fine by the way, mom on the other hand was a bit banged up.  Hurt knee, scraped up toes and also a bad scrape on her arm.  She tripped on the dog.  She needs to be more careful :)

Alright, I am going to go to bed – Goodnight :)

Day 81 – The Day of Frozen

It was so stinking cold today!!!  What happened?  It went from like 80 yesterday to like 44 today.  I don’t get it :)  I had a good demo this morning for work and the whole day was actually busy, so many phone calls.  I did take my coworker out to lunch cause he holds down the fort so well.  We went to a burger place and I had a veggie burger – it was pretty good.

I walked with my other coworker this afternoon, didn’t go very far, but something is better than nothing :)

I forgot to take my meds this morning and boy could I tell today.  I was very fidgety and I didn’t like it at all!!  I also forgot my laptop this morning so I was going to try to edit my video a little bit at lunch, but that went out the window, it was all good though cause we did need the break :)

I am actually getting very excited for April to start so that I can take my pictures per day and just the other day I was dreading it!!!!

Now that I have all my new plugins I really need to finish more of my reviews, recipes, and book reviews.  I get so excited when things start coming together like this.  I feel like I have not had good blogs lately, but I promise it will get better :)

Oh, I may be going to Chicago area in April and that is something I love :)

Alright, all done for today – goodnight :)
