Happy Thanksgiving

A day to spend time with friends and family. There is a lot to be thankful for. Enjoy football, drinks, food, laughs and conversation.

Have a terrific turkey day.

Off for the weekend!

Early out at work today - yeah! Actually left at 1 pm and I am off until Monday. Woo -Hoo.

Went to the gym with my husband so that I can pig out tomorrow. I am so proud of him - he lost 3 inches off of his waist and 2 inches from his thighs. He is working a football game tonight and has a couple of games tomorrow. The little guys have a tournament this weekend - good news he is right down the street.

My brother and his two beautiful girls are here! They drove down from Sparks, NV. Gabriella just called to say thank you - I left an amenity fruit basket in there room - just in case they get hungry and need a little snack. Geneva is very shy and did not start speaking until she played a board game with Nolan. Geneva won! Can't wait to spend more time with them tomorrow and the rest of the weekend.

Last weekend before last, Ms. Ginger hosted an incredible crop. Well, you know what I heard.... "POST, that is all I am going to say!"

I can't even do that in a timely manner - sorry.

Last Sunday I had to go to work (I know - who wants to work on their day off) but it was not too bad - I love giving stuff away! 25 Cruises for two to be exact. That was awesome.

This past Sunday (yesterday) had to go to work again - Invitational Slot Tournament. Made my appearance and left as soon as I could. I cleaned up my email - all communication is done via email. My staff prepared a potluck on their own to promote a little unity - OMG! Every once in awhile I get surprised. I just wished they would take more initiative. I need more motivational materials to get them pumped up. You can never turn your back on them - you get one department working well and the another is collapsing! It is mostly the females - the males are so much easier.

Looking forward to Thanksgiving - a full house of friends and family - can't ask for much more. My brother his two beautiful girls, The Schroeder's and Lisa's mom and us for a grand total of 11 people and then on Friday Rich's mom and aunt are coming into town.

Been pounding the gym having fun with my PT, he is giving me great workouts that I follow-up with Molli - I hope she is not going to kill me after the last workout - that one hurt.

Just ended the fall season of soccer - we (Rich) have decided to coach again in the spring. 5 wins, 2 losses and 1 tie.
