I'm back

Went to Texas over Spring break and very glad to be home, but being away from work for 9 days made for a couple of days.

Played catch up all week plus had to review Feb's financials - still needs to figure out what happened to all my comped rooms and entertainment - hopefully our accounting department will help.

Next week should be better, well cross your fingers - please.

Oh, a brand new Old Navy opens up today near the house - I am off to do a little shopping.

Out of Town

We are leaving this afternoon to San Antonio. I have not even packed yet, I am always a last minute packer. So that is nothing unusual. It is suppose to be in the 80s and really nice while we are there.

Friday we have plans on attending a Spurs and Kings basketball game. I will be one of the only kings fan there. Way out numbered!

Allergies

Runny nose.
Itchy eyes.
Sore Throat.
Congestion.
Cough.


This season is the worst. Went to the doctors and got my medication re-checked. The doctor has decided that I need to go back on allergy injections. So I was re-tested today - yep I am still allergic to just about everything.


My next appointment - quite scary - it will be over three hours long, two injections every ten minutes, called the fast track.

Step One - completed

I bought one of Oprah's book club books - A New Earth Awakening to Your Life's Purpose by Eckhart Tolle. This book is suppose to be similar to "The Secret" - I did not get the book but I did get the audio. I do not recommend the audio. When the voice is not good your focus is not on the message.

Step two read the book, might start tonight - need it. Need to create a positive outlook so I can pass it on to my staff.

Hubby is working at CON EXPO, he is getting paid to referee a back-hoe competition.

Why do we live in Las Vegas - the weather - it is suppose to be near 80 tomorrow.

Monday's Stink

Especially since I had to pick a few things on Saturday for work and go in on Sunday for a couple of hours. It feels as though I have not had a day off.

We had a few more employees that fell victim to staff reductions - not a very pleasant feeling. The work load does not go away - same amount with less people to do the job. So, how do you keep the rest of your staff motivated? They are so down - have to be creative to keep them focused - any suggestions? All they see are employees loosing their jobs - are they next?

I need to get motivated - need to read something that makes me feel better. I need to have a positive attitude.

Pacific Daylight Time

Happy PDT! Did you remember to Spring forward?



Nice to have that extra daylight at the end of the day. Makes it really feel like spring, which I have Spring fever again, cleaning closets, drawers - ooh - dust - ahh-chew! With spring comes allergies and I get them bad. I have been putting off my doctors appointment to the allergist. I did go see the doctor on Friday about my ankle since it is still swollen - bad sprain, nothing broken but it will take another 4 -6 weeks to heal. I wanted to get into shape before the cruise.

Rednecks

My mom has a motor home on "motor home hill" at the Las Vegas Speedway. She has been in town since Wednesday night and she has no plans on stopping by the house. They are here for the races. My two sons are out there this weekend. They are watching the races from the motor home. Have you ever seen those people on top of their motor homes? That's my family. Anyways, I hope they have fun.

Call me Graceful, last weekend I was walking around the pool back to the house and sprained my ankle and fell right into the pool. The ankle is now turning the most horrible colors of purple and green. So I having been slowly limping around - trying to stay off the ankle as much as possible.

I have a little spring fever going on - I want to clean the house and trim the plants outside and I cannot walk - very frustrating. It will have to wait. The worst part, I miss the gym so much - since I cannot put pressure on the foot - I cannot do much, movement is very tight.
