Good morning peeps!first and foremost
Ellie: I wanted to extend again my most heartfelt support and prayers for your DS and the rest of your family! Words simply can not express the immense stress and worry you must be experiencing and we all hope and pray in our own way that you will be back with a report of "crisis over" very soon! Not having kids myself, I have NO idea what you must be going through but do know the power of having the support and shoulders of your friends (cyber or not!) We are all here for you, whatever you need as you would/have for us!
I have been lurking for awhile this morning trying to clear my head, thinking very hard about work and an upcoming opportunity that my be presented this week! I am a worrier on the side (LOL!) and completely over-analize and over-think everything, big or small... Anyway, to make a long story short, I may be a few steps closer to move back to the Pacific Northwest with my office, and may have an opportunity to get DH into a job that is more suited for his talents and aptitudes at my company as well with this move! The supervisor from that office will be in our office this coming Tuesday and wants to talk to me about the position and what it might include... I have been stewing over it all weekend (as I found out friday afternoon!) and will continue to do so until the conversation concludes and I know more where I/we stand... silly I know, but I just can't help it! The problem is that I really like my office and co-workers and the thought of starting over again with all new people (as I just started at this office less than a year ago) is definately something to consider... However, with what I do, you have to go where the work is, and the economic slowdown in the Commercial Construction sector is just plain scarey here and I have no projects upcoming once my current project wraps up in a month or so... Whereas the Seattle market is still booming and has a pretty healthy pipeline through 2010! Outlook much shorter here at the moment... but many other considerations that I won't bore you with...
Robin: sorry you have to work today! I'm sure you would rather be somewhere else!

like doing a Cathe workout! all in good time! Have fun with GSBSB and I am impressed with the Salad vs. Pizza choice! I'm not sure I would be so strong! Pizza is one of my favs!!!
Catherine: enjoy your R&R time and B&G... somehow those just don't go in the same sentence very well, but at least you will go from one extreme to the other!

and BTW I LOVE your boot purchase during yesterday's power shopping excursion!
Judy: your run sounds great! I envy those who can run, but my knees just can't take it... enjoy the outdoors & Congratulations on your 25th anniversary. Enjoy your trip ALONE! LOL Where ya heading?
Wendy: So Sorry to hear Houdini is suffering with cold and ear infections! Hope the antibiotics and stuff kick in very soon! My lil sister used to get them ALL the time... so I feel your pain! Impressive workout so early this morning as well! enjoy your massage! sounds like you need some downtime after your last few days!
Heather: enjoy your stretch and rest day, and your outing with friends!
JJ: ok, so you need to find the thread from the other day about the RAKING WORKOUT and may want to reconsider that raking leaves should be counted an official workout! I'll bet you will work up a sweat and use both upper and lower body to complete this task! Will see when you have DOMS tomorrow using those lesser worked muscles that you never knew you had! LOL!! enjoy the fall weather!
well, need to find the BGR and get off the couch! so much to do, so little ambition!
