back to getting back at it

First - thanks to everyone who reads here 
and had get -well wishes for me!
They worked, I guess and I am 1000 times better.

I stood up the other day and my pants actually fell off of me.
So I'll count that as a nsv of sorts.
This Lab Jacket was snug in October... 
and now it over-laps. I had to wear leggings
because I am so cold! But I also wore pants.
Getting there, I think.

My $3 and sometimes $5 and often $10 a day habit
is one thing I am better of without.
I found this in a box of junk. Gosh!

Still no coffee - still no Monsters.
This is broth.... half chicken, half beef stock.

Yerba Mate overload....This is why people like tea bags, and 
don't carry around loose tea. What a mess! And the fancy 
red Thermos didn't stay very warm during work.

22 degrees in DFW /North Texas this morning
I had to have sugar-free fro yo. Praline/ mocha.

My locks were frozen yesterday morning.
It took forever to get in the truck!
And then I had to climb across the passenger side.
  This has happened before. 
But this year, my butt didn't honk the horn!
Another nsv for sure.

At least I'm on the mend.
It was the combination of fasting, and catching 
some bug that did me it this time. What are the odds of 
that happening? I mean, really!

My 5 o'clock shadow is showing!

Back to work at my awesome driving job.
I like the bedside nursing, 
but I love to be out and about - driving.

So all things considered,
it's all good --
Sorry I'm a big baby...
Nurses make for the worst patients, I'm told.

Hope your day is wonderful!

  1. Hey so glad to hear you are feeling better! I can honestly say pants have never fallen off me, but perhaps one day I can join the ranks of the momentarily pants-less due to that NSV!
    Oh and I want some of that fro-yo, yo!

  6. Keep warm :) I love chicken broth with lots of freshly ground black pepper. My Nana used to give it to me in the winter time at bedtimes. It's the ultimate comfort to me.

  9. Doesn't it feel great to be well again?! I am so happy for you, Anne.

    My brain just isn't functioning this evening. I read "frozen locks" and instantly wondered why you'd go outside with wet hair, in 22 degree weather, just as you recovered your health. Dah. LOL

    I'm okay. I finally caught on, by the time I read how you didn't butt honk. (And I'm not talking rude noises, I'm talking the seat leap in the truck.)

    Keep smiling, and congratulations on breaking the monster habit!! I'm proud of you!

  15. I'm just catching up and read your Jan 11 post. sorry you were sick (I've been sick too), but you are amazing. Those pictures...I don't know what to say. Amazing. Yes, I am at a loss to come up with something else other than... amazing.

    Anyway, glad you are feeling better. Glad your clothes are getting so loose. Remember...I told you a while ago...you need new clothes! :-) You should show off your new bod rather than hide behind baggy clothes.
