Good Morning,

Listening to the TV morning show my ears perked up when I heard Bismark and Casper mentioned on the weather report...cold, cold and more cold! Yes, I would be in hibernation by now. As for our weather, our temperatures are headed back down-no, not like yours. We've started off with rain, although DH just came in and said it's hailing. There was talk of sleet and freezing rain but that might be more north and west of here where temperatures tend to be colder than here on LI.

I was slightly preturbed yesterday by my gyn's office. I had called there early yesterday morning about an issue I'm having and by 5PM I still hadn't gotten a call back. I thought she might have late appointments so I figured I would call and just leave my another number since I would be leaving work. When I called I found out her last patient was at 1:45 and she was gone. I was a little peeved but figured I would just leave a new message for today. The guy on the phone was very nice and offered for me to speak to her nurse which was fine. Apparently the nurse figured I should speak to the doctor so she located her and got her on the phone with me. She was rather abrupt and when I said I had called her this morning she said well I'm returning your call now. Uh, no, your staff got you on the phone. And after all that really didn't offer any reason or solution to the issue other than find a specialist. So I'll stop by her office after work and have a urinalysis done and then if that doesn't show up anything I guess I'll have to perhaps find another doctor who maybe has a better answer than I don't know.

I did get a nice walk/run on the treadmill last night and a short weight workout. I do have a hard time getting through my head that it's OK to do a 10 or 15 minute workout. I know in my head that something is better than nothing by some days it's hard to convince myself of that. It seems easier in my head just to blow the whole thing off for when I have more time.

Work was a busy one yesterday. One day out and my inbox was overflowing. My boss was out yesterday which made catch up a bit easier. He was in a panic yesterday when he called in to go over the day's calendar and I just happened to be in the ladies room-not sure what the panic was about I do come back to my desk. Men...crazy creatures!

I'm looking for elves to borrow from someone to do some wrapping. Anybody have some I can rent? I haven't wrapped a gift and haven't even sorted through the things I purchased. I sort of threw everything into the black hole which is DD's room. What a mess up there. It was a disaster to start with and I've made it worse. Both girls will be here and not sure they have floor space to walk or a bed to sleep on with everything going on in there. If the weather continues to be nasty I may head up there and sort through the chaos.

DH's day at work at the new facility went better than expected. There's still a lot of unorganization and confusion concerning this new venture and of course they're trying to do it with the staff they have which makes it all the more confusing but I guess eventually it will all work out providing the big 3 are still in business.

That's about it from my neck of the woods. Time to get my act together and get ready to venture out and get ready to slay some dragons. Hope you all have a terrific Tuesday!
