OT--I hope you feel better. Some days are just like that and you just want to go to sleep when you get home and that's OK!
360--CONGRATS! I will be there soon too. Today is day 161/23 weeks for me. It just gets easier for me, and I hope you guys too.
OOTT--You still out of town buddy?
August-Congrats on the new car. That's a huge stressor off your back.
Badger--Thanks so much for your text today. Really made me happy. Felt good to have somebody in my corner.
School day 1 went smoothly. I am SO lucky to work at a great school and it is SO healthy to work. Summer's are great, but at a point you need to get back to work. I had a great one, and felt very relaxed at work today and no sense of dread for the kids next week. They are great kids and we will have a great year.
Took a great nap when I got home and will be sleeping early tonight. I love my hours though: 8-3. You really can't beat that.
Have a great one everybody!!
Peace and be good to YOU!
Lee

Morning all! Another early start today but then I've got two days off. I got dis.
You're right Lee, I moan about work all the time but if I'm away from it for too long I'll be really unhappy.
I am looking forward to starting college though, I'll get to sit down there.

Hey Badge...still in Mexico. We were walking around in Tropical Storm Javier yesterday, and went to a hurricane party at the Cabo Cantina. I drank iced tea and coffee until ten, then we took a van back through floodwaters. It was crazy. It was harder to stay sober yesterday, but I did and I'm sooo glad. There's nothing like staying sober.

"Is there anybody Outtttttttttt there?"
Don't EVEN start with the Pink Floyd quotes, y'all, lol.
Had a good day today for day 2. Hard for the first week because it's just meeting meeting meeting. I don't thrive in meetings, especially since they've essentially been the same for 20 years, lol. But as OOTT said, there's nothing like being sober. I have sat through those meetings EVERY year with hangovers. They are lame enough as it is. Just give me kids. Just let me teach!!
Nothing else going on. In a great mood. Was able to have a nap today after work and still went to exercise. I want to really maintain my workouts this year. I've come far this summer and I feel strong.
OOTT--when do you guys come back? Glad you are having a great time--you SO deserve it.
Hey OT--Enjoy your time off! School is coming...hahahahhahahaha!
Hey Badger and everyone else!
Hey Dee!
Peace everyone, and be good to you....."just a little pin *****...there'll be no more aaaaaaaaahhhhhhh ,but you may feel a little sick....."

Hello everyone. The site was down earlier so couldn't check in. 
Had the best lie in ever and got a lot done today. It was great, I feel well rested and productive.
Meetings are the worst Lee, they're usually a complete waste of time.

Hey guys! Glad SR is back so I can say hi.
First patio shifts. There are THREE, yes, three, flights of stairs with landings. No elevator. No dumb-waiter (ha, except one of us). And during the day, the only bar open is downstairs so I have to go down to ring in and pick up people's cocktails. I felt fine while doing it (10-4 - including set up which is lugging everything upstairs- plates, pitchers, trashcans, sauces.....) but I hit a WALL about 5 when driving home! It has been a really busy (good, but so busy), what, ten days or so?? So I came straight home, no bank or errands, and ate a healthy dinner and took a nap. I've already taken my nightly sleep pill so I plan to be out here soon!!
Fiiiiinallllly getting a haircut tomorrow. Then highlights, hopefully next week after I keep making money through this weekend
Take care all-
A

Morning all! Not gonna be around tonight and tomorrow morning, I'm staying at a friend's house. We're watching Stranger Things.
Got some boring adult stuff to get done today. Might do a bit of clothes shopping as well. I'm reluctant to spend my money but I wanna look good for college.
Good to hear from you PHRD, Mel and Badger.
That sounds exhausting August. I'm the same, I'll climb around the stockroom (who needs a ladder right?) then walk miles home and then I crash.
Have a good day at work Lee.

Hey SansaS! Glad you're back to hang out with us. Great job on a month
I am excited about something- over the years I have volunteered for an awesome local charity called Open Hand. They prepare and provide meals and groceries to people who are terminally and critically ill. Lots of cancer and HIV/AIDS patients, many of whom are very poor and/or live alone. I've done packaging and one time got to compile the nutritional info of their meals (That was really cool!) but meal delivery is my favorite thing. You do a three-ish hour route and I have been just waiting to have a car to start doing it again! And the other really cool part is that I asked CLiff if he wanted to go with me and he flipped out he was so excited at the idea. As he said, "the last 18 years [of his marriage and life] weren't about service to others; that is such an important part of my life now." It feels awesome to be able to and WANT to be of service. Food has been a big part of my life in fun ways (resto/foodie fun stuff) and tough ones (my ED issues) and this charity is very close to my heart.
Overcast here- thankfully I am inside tonight so I don't have to worry about the patio!
Hope everyone has a good day-
