    Has anyone heard from Nurdl lately? I know I missed A LOT while I was down and out (physically and mentally), but I haven't seen her posting. Nurdl...please put down your plastic Barbie arm and get back here to us!!! :h

                  Thanks for the advice about the gym K9. I felt like crap today but went in anyway. Decided that even if I did a few minutes of cardio it was better than nothing. So, I was there for about 40 minutes. I'm trying to go every other day and didn't want to throw it off. :H

                  I do feel better when I go. Just today I'm having a bad headache. So, I cut myself a break and only did a few machines and only two sets of 15.

                    Yeah..where is Nurdl?? Hope she's ok
                    it was a navy man in the pool.....I don't much about death, but I think he had been there all night
                    It was one of my quiet residents...flip flops, keys and towel on chair
                    the coroner removed the body and some of my asshat residents stood there and filmed it for Christ's sake....I was livid and chased them off...no respect at all anymore.
                    The wife is being flown in from Iowa to move his stuff.
                    I have to drain and acid wash the pool due to bodily fluids being released in the water
                    I think I could be on NCIS by now!
                    My boss was wonderful, but after I get my license fixed I am looking for something new. I have feelers out.
                    3 deaths in 2.5 years. Not gang style drive bys, but I think I am about to qualify for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder!
                    I was in crisis management mode all day and was zonked when I got home.
                    and...I would have drunk myself into oblivion last night a year ago.....not a drop this year. That pleases me
                    Nora..I am so proud of you in the gym. It makes me smile. Watch the headache....are you still taking AB??
                    ok...prayers being sent up for a peaceful day
                    love you all...I need Jack snuggles K9, but at least Lucky cat is purring at my feet
                    I love my family more than alcohol.:h

                      That's very sad Mama. I don't know if you were being serious about the PTSD, but don't discount it! These things all take their toll, especially when you're very stressed about the volume of work and other personal issues.

                      Sounds like it's time to move on! :l :h :l

                      Hugs to everyone else too :h

                          Sorry pauly.....the new job has got me crazy busy and tired.
                          Mama a body? Wow sounds like you did a great job. Glad the new asst is great. I hope my mgr says that about me someday.
                          Juja I have also started excercising, trying to release those endorphins I so badly need.
                          K-9 jack is beautiful and looks very loving
                          Ghe glad to see you, and everyone.
                          I have missed yall, hugs and kisses.

                          I am going to try to start posting from work on my lunch hour, if anyone knows the wifi password.

                          Love to all
                          JDG

                            Mama - I am SOOO proud of you for getting through that horrendous day without a drink! Do you have any idea what happened to the poor guy? I would seriously be traumatized to witness something like that too. I hope you are doing ok. :h If I could bottle "Jack Snuggles" they would be a best seller. I'm glad your kitty is looking after you!

                            Glad to see you all here today! Not much new to report...foot still sore but I guess it's getting better (?)...my next X-ray is not until the 19th. My doctor kinda annoyed me last time I went to see her and I think she may have rushed my "healed" status just so I'd leave her alone. I'd like to think she's better than that, but you never really know. Anywhooo...hope you all have a great day!!!
                            :heart:I love my daughter more than alcohol:heart:

                            Believe in yourself. You are stronger than you think.
