Guys, I feel like the cold I had a while ago is coming back I'm all flushed in the face and stuffed up, tired as crap and my throat is starting to hurt again What the hell....? I know I'm not getting much sleep but there's not much I can do about that. And my food isn't THAT bad. I'm bothered

Any time I moved to a new environment, I would get sick. My body wasn't used to the different things that people were carrying. Maybe your body hasn't built an immunity to what's normal in your new town?

((((Lori))))

Take care of yourself.

Aww, thank you! Hugs are appreciated! I was just talking to one of my co-workers about it and she said that she heard that the virus that's going around right now has a reputation for coming back after it seems like its gone. Booo! Still going to do my workout. But more weight less volume Maybe. We'll see

lol! And if that's not bad enough- Stephen was home sick today and now he's worse He has bad head pain and nausea. There's a brutal stomach bug going around, too. Hope it's not that

Oh! My supervisor gave everyone really pretty bracelets (they look expensive!) for Christmas today. I got some too! I felt special and included! Since, you know, I'm not really a part of this company. Made me happy That's got to be a good sign, right?? I gave her a hug!

So much in terms of cold and flu going around right now - sorry to hear you are having another 'round' of head cold symptoms Hoping you feel better for Christmas.

It is amazing that you are still so cheery even when you don't feel well! It is so refreshing.

The whole time I watched your vidz (especially your pushups), I was saying to my honey, "Look at how small she is! That's 45lbs!!! Look at her go!" lulz

I hope you feel better! And pretty tree!

[dreahere]

Aw, pretty tree!

Hope you and Stephen bounce back quickly, sweetie. Do you take vitamin C?

Go see a doc. Sounds like you have something that might just go dormant for a while and come back. It never truly goes away.

Some antibiotics might help you actually get rid of it for good.

Nice workouts!

Thanks! I feel much better today! I think it's just all the germs everywhere combined with not so much sleep. Last night we went to bed early and I feel so much more energetic today! Must do that more often

Hahaha! Thank you!

I'm much better today! And thanks!!!

Thank you! I do now! Hahaha! We picked some up the other night, so I've been taking that and cold fx. Good as new today! Stephen's not though- I think he has what I had first. He had a cough and I had a cold, then I caught his cough, and now I think he has my cold. lol! He has the same symptoms I had when I stayed home from work the other week. He's home again today.

Nice workouts!

Nah, I'm good I think if I saw a doctor he'd send me either home or to the mental institute It's just a run down feeling, no serious symptoms

Thank you!

[gobbles23]

Hey! Feeling awesome today! I may even do my back/biceps workout later Woot! Will catch up on journals during the day. Happy Thursday!

Hi Swooshie! Oh, it's so beautiful! It's from a jeweler place and it's just gorgeous! Prettiest piece of ********* I ever owned! I love my supervisor!

Thanks Swooshie!!

Edit- I can't say *********??? Ok, how about jewell*ery?? lol!

[gobbles23]

HAI GUYS! Merry Christmas!!! lol! No workout last night- Stephen insisted on spending some quality time together and I happily obliged I will do back and biceps tonight after groceries! Legs on Sunday Getting my hair done tomorrow! WOoot!

I'm so excited for christmas, we have so many surprises for each other! I can't wait for Stephen to open his presents! YAY!

Since last Saturday I've lost 1.5-1.8lbs! Eeek. lol! I'm 124 now! Huh!

Work is going pretty good! My supervisor told me that she wants me here full time/permanent, but that she's not the person in charge of hiring so it's not totally her decision to make, but she will try her hardest just as soon as everything calms down here (holidays, annual reports, etc.) to get me on.

She thanked me for all the hard work I did here so far and that and told me everyone is very pleased with my work and that I'm doing great. She told me to hang in there in terms of waiting to get hired and she really wants me here. So we'll see what happens in the next few months. I'll be here a while, regardless!

Yuppers! Happy Lori! I have half a day christmas eve, 2 days off, 2 days working, then the weekend! Then a half day, a day off, 3 days, and the next weekend! Yay! Be back later with workout and videos!

Glad you are feeling better! Sadly I has caught the holiday plague lol. I hope Stephen feels better soon, being sick during the holidays sucks.

The tree looks awesome! All bright and pretty

I'm so happy for you with your work situation! End of year is a tough time to get hired but it sounds like she wants you there and will push for it so yay!

Wow, I can't believe the site wont like you type jewelry. I mean what is so offensive about that term?

[Boomer29]

Your excitement is contagious! Go you landing that perm position. Ill keep my fingers crossed for you!

Thanks! Stephen's not to bad now, just yucky in the head I'm fine!

And thanks! I'm hoping I'm not being like Spartacus and putting too much faith in her just to be crushed, but she sounds pretty genuine and she's always so nice! We'll see. If I don't end up staying there I'll be sad because that place feel slike home to me now (HA!) but I'm sure I'll like whatever else I find as well I'm like that. lol!

I know, hey? How weird is that?

Your excitement is contagious! Go you landing that perm position. Ill keep my fingers crossed for you!

Thanks Boomer!!!

HAI GUYS!!!! Yesterday there was a work pre-party at 3:30-5:00, and I got to drink a beer while I worked on reception! I actually could have drank many beers, but I had to get the bus so I only drank one. lol! It was enough though to knock the good out of me by the time I got home last night. So today I will just do shoulders and biceps and do legs tomorrow. I can't do back before legs. Back gets worked anyway with legs. I'll do better next week, I SWEAR!

I GOT MY HAIR DONE! Yay! It's pretty much like before, only the blonde is more natural looking and there are darker pieces in it. Plus it's all trimmed up and shiny! New hair! YAY! I tried taking many pictures, but goodness the lighting in here sucks![ Will post them when I get back. Sitting here drinking Baileys and coffee (I got baileys as a gift yesterday at work!) and once that's gone I'm going shopping for stocking stuffers for Stephen. Then when I get back it'll be workout time! So then I'll post vids and pics! Be back in a bit!

Sounds like everything is awesome in Lori land - great to hear. I hope the job turns out for you - it is nice to stay somewhere you feel comfortable and appreciated (plus, they know the calibre of employee they will get in you which allows them to feel comfortable engaging you in a permanent capacity)

Enjoy the Holidays - I hope you and Stephan have a wonderful Christmas

[dreahere]
