Telephone Company

A Kansas farm wife called the local phone company to report her telephone failed to ring when her friends called and that on the few occasions, when it did ring, her dog always moaned right before the phone rang. The telephone repairman proceeded to the scene, curious to see this psychic dog or senile lady.

He climbed a telephone pole, hooked in his test set, and dialed the subscriber's house. The phone didn't ring right away, but then the dog moaned and the telephone began to ring.Climbing down from the pole, the telephone repairman found:1. The dog was tied to the telephone system's ground wire with a steel chain and collar.2. The wire connection to the ground rod was loose ..

3. The dog was receiving 90 volts of signaling current when the number was called.4. After a couple of jolts, the dog would start moaning and then urinate.5. The wet ground would complete the circuit, thus causing the phone to ring.Which demonstrates that some problems CAN be fixed by pissing and moaning. Thought you'd like to know

Weighing In

Well I wasn't really going to weigh in until Thursday when I go for my next fill, but I had to stop by the Dr office this morning because I have been having troubles with my arm the last several days and it is just getting worse. Hurts to extend it and to pick up anything... so after my little visit found out that I pulled my bicep tendon. OUCH... so anti-inflam meds and try best not to use it... hard to do when it's my right arm, the one I do everything with.

Onto a happier topic.......... weigh in... 6 lbs DOWN !!! WEE :) good deal. My dr's scale is usually off a little bit, so I know it will be even better on Thurs when I go for my fill. They have a more acurate scale... so I'm hoping closer to be down 10. I won't be disappointed but would be super excited to be down even more :)



Hope all you other "Losers" have a wonderful Tuesday !!!

I have never been so happy to be a "loser" in my life :)

Say CHEESE

Cancelled my Fill

I cancelled my fill I was scheduled to get today. I didn't think it was a good idea with the nausea I had over the weekend and not being able to eat really at all. I pushed it back until next week. I get so frustrated sometimes because one day one thing will go down just fine and the next it won't budge. It's so odd how it varies so much from day to day literally. Michael was happy about me rescheduling. Everytime I have to go to the bathroom he asks if I should call the dr. I have told him that it's nothing that the dr is going to do except to tell me not to eat that, or eat slower or something of the sort. It's a daily experiment I guess you could say :)

I had some faboulous chicken noodle soup from the cafeteria here at work yesterday. It was sooo yummy, had a good flavor and the noodles were really small so they didn't bother me at all. I did ask her to put in more broth and less noodles and she was fine with that. There was no soup today, it went out early, but I inquired about what she might have for tomorrow and she told me to pick... chicken enchilada soup or tortillia soup... hmmm both sound good... lets go with the chicken enchilada soup. I remember seeing it before but not trying it. Sooo maybe I will tomorrow especially since I picked :)

Men are such children at times

I forgot to mention in my updates and info on superbowl day that Michael got hurt. Yeah during the game he was leaning over one of the bar/eating areas and one of his enhiberated (drunk out of his ever-loving mind) friends decides to hug Michael so hard that they fell on the bar and Michaels head became the cushion. Well he had a nice little goose egg on his head afterwards behind his left ear area. So last night when I got home from work I grab the bag of frozen mozz cheese I have in the freezer and tell him to lay his head back on it. He laughs at me when he sees the cheese in my hand. I said it's softer than the chicken breasts. He was pretty beat last night... LITERALLY I guess and just layed in my lap while I watched a little TV. He had me laughing because he was talking in his sleep, it's usually about work as it was this time--something about 4 people in the elevators and about a woman with a mustache...don't know what that was about, but it was funny. He never remembers what he says, but it's all the same, entertaining. The ER dr said that she didn't feel anything on his head except for the "normal bumps" that are on your head... who has "normal bumps" on your head ? hahah well Michael does. She told him to come back if he gets nausious or passes out. Yeah Michael, drive yourself to the ER as soon as you pass out...
He went into work today although feeling nausious this morning, I have been calling to check up on him every so often and he still seems to be nausious. I told him to go back to the ER and make them check his head, better to be safe than sorry.
