Chilly Willy

My GOD it's chilly this morning.  Not really complaining because this is my kind of weather but yowza are my tootsies cold! Maybe flip flops aren't the way to go.  Well, it is going to get in the 60s today so eff it.

In Richard news:  I haven't heard yet if he was released from the hospital...and Mom hasn't posted yet which tells me he did because when he was in the hospital - she was up by now and at least posting on FB.  I'll check her blog throughout the morning. Hoping all is well there though.

Some thoughts and prayers to Diane (one of our aides at school and my pups second mommy).  Her mother had her gall bladder removed yesterday which doesn't seem like a biggie but she's also losing blood from somewhere and while at the hospital, she fell and suffered a compound fracture of her ankle. Poor Diane!  She's had a LOT of family health issues of late.  Hoping all is well, we miss you at work D but take as much time as you need...your mother needs you more!

Maggie called me yesterday while I was driving home from work (as she always does) and said, "Where are you?"  I said, "In my car driving home." She said, "Guess where I am?"  Me: "You are a bitch and NOT nice!" She's in PIB and I don't find it very sisterly that she rubs it in my face when I can't be there.  Then again, that kind of sounds VERY sisterly.

So at school, some of the aides and sped teachers are doing a secret Halloween pal thingy and I got my first gift yesterday.  I got this cute little jelly jar with a straw in the lid and a Mike's hard strawberry lemonade thingy.  I'm pretty sure I know who my pal is but that's okay.  The woman I have hasn't been in school since last Thursday so I got her info sheet and it was blank.  I went to the dollar store anyway and got her some cute little things.  I'll give my first gift today (a cute sippy Halloween cup full of chocolate eyeballs etc.).  Hope she likes it and isn't allergic to peanut butter. 

And that's about all I've got.  Need to go find me a sweater to put on over my shirt and head off to work.  Ooh, made some really delicious pork chops last night...WW with only 7 points.  And I only ate half (so I could bring the other half for lunch). They seemed overly simple but they were delicious and Jimmy loved them.

K - later!
