Hey JO........

I have not seen you on for awhile. Just wanted to make sure everything was A okay..... I know that you are probably super busy with the type of work you do.

Have a great day

Hi Katie,

Yeah, I'm doing fine trying to keep my head above water. The trust returns came in from the bank, so I'm a little swamped this week. I enjoy doing trust returns, though, so the time goes fast.

The laundry got done yesterday (sort of) and I even baked bread, too! It's odd, I know, but when I'm really really busy at work, I just have this need to do something domestic that can't be squelched.

Rare foods list:

Pasta
White Potatoes
Refined sugar
Pizza
Rice
Chinese
Waffles/Pancakes

Things I won't let cross my lips:

Deep fried anything

This list already exists in my mind. Just wanted to get it in writing so that I can add to it as needed. The only one recently added was sugar. The rest have been there all along.

Actually........that is, indeed, what it is now - just watch me!
I'm doing it, and now I'm shutting up!

Ciao Bella!

Thanks for thinking of me Katie. Yes, it's brutal at work right now. I didn't even think of logging on here once today. It's just busy busy busy.

On the food front, things are going well. I don't have alot of time to think about food. I eat every 3 or so hours as always and still have 2 or 3 suppys per day. They are so convenient when time is tight. I recently tried the granola bars with the marshmallows for the first time this month and I love them! It pays to try new things once in a while.

Ok, so it seems to be rant week here. I feel obliged to add mine:

This is when I hate my job. I haven't had a haircut for 7 weeks, my grey is really beginning to pop out. I have wings that I can't tame. Here's the thing. I live in a rural area and unless I want a bouffant hairdo, I have to travel to the city to get my hair cut. And since I work 65-70 hours/week, I have to do it on Saturday afternoon or not do it at all. I had to cancel my appointment last week because we got a foot (yes, 12 inches) of snow. I rescheduled for this week and - SURPRISE! - ice storm! I look like a hag. I can't go next week because we had the bright idea to get Van Morrison tickets (YAY us!). So I'll go to NYC looking like a hag with a bouffant hairdo - WITH WINGS! no less. I haven't had my nails done in 3 weeks and the girl I like to go to is in - SURPRISE! - PITTSBURGH! So I'll have to go locally and they just don't get it right.

OK, there is suffering in the world, I get it, but, man! How much can a girl take?!?!?

OMGosh Jo, i didn't think i would ever laugh at someone's rant...i'm just sayin, it must just be that "jo" humor! Well, the bouffant can be kinda cute

Just stick a big bow on top!
