'DYK I'm planning a trip to Nashville next week to carry some things up to my friend that lost everything in the flood? I was finally able to talk with her today and bless her heart, she has lost everything she has? There was 4 feet of water in the house she rents, her car flooded, turned on it's side and was slammed into the house next door. The dog grooming shop where she works was flooded as well and she lost all of her dog grooming equipment. I just feel so bad for her. I want to help her out, but it's hard to even know where to begin?'

dyk that is just so sad...

dyk I'm glad you are near enough to be able to go over...

dyk HA you should see me right now. I look ROUGH. That's putting it mildly.


dyk Sean is on the hunt for a snake longer than 3 feet to work on the toilet - there's a partial obstruction - it wants to flush... I am wondering if I knocked something into it packing, etc


dyk okay I have Deklan telling me what "his baby flushed" into the toilet


dyk he said a brush but he doesn't know which color... a BRUSH? good lord -

dyk okay if I understood the story correctly, it was a wide toothed comb with no handle and it was blue


dyk I know of 2 items that match that - one I used yesterday but can no longer find.


dyk and there is no way we're getting that out without a plumber, which I am not paying for b/c i can't


dyk ugh.

dyk, I have a secret...only one of my regular Starbucks ladies knows because she's commented on my early arrival

dyk, I've been getting my lazy butt out of bed and have been going to the gym in the morning.

dyk, I'm getting into the office by 8:30, even a couple times when things were crazy at work I got to the office by 7:15 so it's totally possible to keep going during busy season(s).

dyk, I HATE IT! I'm proud of myself for going, but mostly I hate it. I do NOT like physical activity AT ALL.

dyk, but I'm also a little ticked at myself, I (mostly) ran 2.6 miles today and it dawned on me AFTER I got to work that I was only 1/2 mile from finishing a 5k and that I totally could have kept going, but didn't.

dyk, so yea, I'm a little proud that I managed to average out to less than a 12 minute mile including walking breaks (totaling 8ish minutes I think?), but ticked that I could have kept going and didn't, but since I HATE getting up and going to the gym to begin with, I'm still a little on the proud side.

dyk, my stomach just growled REALLY loudly. Louder than the guy that I work with who's stomach is ALWAYS growling and I can hear his from across a conference room.

dyk, it just did it again!

dyk, I didn't *think* I was hungry, but I guess I am. I had plenty to eat today: 3/4 a pepper, a few slices of cucumber, an egg white veggies omelet (lots of veggies), venti latte, 3 cups of spinach with strawberries & goat cheese, a WW tortilla filled with hummus, spinach, 1/4 pepper, & cucumbers, a section of grapefruit, a not legal non-fat coffee light extra coffee frappacinio, and several pieces of dark Swiss chocolate that my staff brought back from Turks & Caicos

dyk, and again! I guess it's dinner time!
