Hey Jilli-welcome to buddyslim girl.
It is hot here. I've already apologized, as I think I brought it with me from AZ...but I'm going home on Thursday so you should be cool again after that It's good to "see" you again. So many of us have been struggling, stumbling and getting back on the horse. I've been gaining and losing the same 15 lbs for 2 years now. the 40's is killing me. I'm finding that no matter how much I work out, I can't lose the weight. Good to have you back in the fold.

Tired today man. Days and days of crappy sleep catching up to me. Dh has been a cranky you know what since he joined us last thursday...actually I think he was ok until mid day friday, after that he forgot how much he missed us. He's been just such a butthead to ds. And add to that the drinking that went on this weekend
I'm just tired of the drama.

So the news back home is that his work unit is laying off 200 before the end of the month, and then sending 200 to the cell phone spin off, leaving 200 lab employees back with the company. Raises are due in July, and they don't want to pay out severance packages at the higher wage rate. So, it's very possible we could get home to unemployment. This has just been the suckiest year. And it doesn't look like I'll have the luxury of working from home for much longer anyway, as the company I work for is falling apart. So, I'll start looking when I get back and so will he, whether he wants to or not. I'm really mad at him for leaving us in this position when he should have been looking for work months ago. We're both kind of feeling the urge to come back home, but we're upside down in the house right now and that would mean taking a loss when we already have no $$. Spending time with family this past weekend was nice, and it reminds us of what we're missing.

We're spending the next few days doing projects around mom's house and then it's back to reality. I want to go home, but I don't ya know.

Lori-that's quite a haul. The coffee grinder sounds great.

Jen-my nephew was playing in a soccer tournament in Trenton on Sat & Sun, and got heat sick. Puking, cramping dehydration. We felt so bad for him. He's 12. He played like crap on Sunday because he was feeling so lousy and it was still so hot. There really should be a rule about that at a certain age. Back home, all games are done and over with b4 noon, but that doesn't mean they're still not playing in 98 degree heat for a block of time.

Lizzy-hope it cools down soon so you can get some sleep.

Anna-you know what to do girl. I'm with ya...I haven't been well behaved this vacation, despite all my plans to be.

Alright...back to work...I need a paycheck when I get home.
Peace,
Sue
