mundane monday

so, i really am not starving. in fact, i think i am over that 'hump'....my stomach isnt constantly growling in hunger....although, its hard to say, because i have a touch of this nasty flu going around at work....agh. i feel awful. my stomach HURTS. like so crampy. and as dr. w calls it- 'bowel prep' poop.....(if you dont know what that is-poop like water. sorry for the great details...) i guess thats what happens when you work in healthcare-you just talk about that kind of stuff like its nothing. so-sorry if it offends you...what really sucks is that i am on a 10 days in a row stretch...with no days off in between....

not a very busy weekend at work, however im kinda greatful, since i am not feeling well. got called in at 4:30 in the AM today-went home and went back to sleep. woke up at 8:20-frantic. jae's school starts at 8:40. crap. wake jae up and she informs me that she doesnt have school. huh? howd i miss this? im the mom!!!! look at my planner-says nothing about no school. and then i look on the school calendar-sure enough, no school. (so much for being able to go back to bed)

went in the basement to get some laundry out of the dryer when all of the sudden, something swoops at my head. i scream, and lo and behold, there is a BIRD in my basement. i have no idea how he got in there but he obviously did not like me, because he kept swooping at me....i tried to get him out-but was unsuccessful. kelly........call kelly and kindly ask if he could come over and help my lovely 'friend the bird' out of the basement...i gave specific instructions to not harm the little bugger....he trapped him in my laundry basket and kindly escorted him off the premises.

i am not supposed to weigh in until wednesday, but i was anxious to see how much weight ive already lost. i knew i had lost bc of the significent amount LESS intake i am getting....i have lost 4 1/2 lbs in less than a week! yay! its a start....i know it wont always be 5 lbs a week, but its still nice....
