I have been busy working and changed clients and schedules, and not been online lately. My husband told me that he thought I was spending too much time online- but, it's no different than him sitting in front of the TV 24 hours a day. I only get online after work, and after everything is done for the night, and he is usually asleep or watching TV.
Anyway, I have a new client I am staying with, actually- more than one, I like this better- work is going very well. I am still losing weight, but- it has slowed down, but, that's alright- as long as I keep losing and don't gain any.
I have been talking to my sister, Holly, she and her husband just moved into their new place, they are unpacking and getting settled in. I wish she hadn't moved so far up the road though, it will now take me 45 minutes to drive up to her house to visit. But, they wanted to move out into the country and they bought 3 acres of land, so- I know they'll be happy. Baby Riley will be 1 year old on August 23rd, time sure does fly, she is growing so fast, and my nephew, Mason will be starting school this fall.
My daughter, Jenni is doing well, she is still liking her job out in Long Beach. She also has a birthday this month. Oh my...I'm feeling old LOL!!!-- My Jenni will be 26 years old this month!!! Her boyfriend, Victor is doing well also, he has a nice job now that he enjoys, and just got a raise. Victor has a birthday this month, too- we have several birthdays coming up this month.
My sister, Marcia and her family are doing well, my sister, Marcia and her daughter, Madison just got back from Band Camp, in Virginia, Madison had to go for a week, she is in the marching band for Trinity High School, and she's the one who plays the saxophone- my sister went as one of the shaperones (not spelled right), but they had a great time. Her husband, David took the same week off, to stay home with my nephew, Austin, and they just had a grand old time together, they went fishing, to the movies, out to eat, swimming at home, and just had a great dad and son week.
I only have to work 3 hours in the morning, then I'm off to my sister, Marcia's house to swim with her and the kids for the rest of the afternoon. I'm looking forward to having a nice afternoon with them.

Hope you all have a great week ahead!!!

It's good to see you post again Tammie. It sounds like you are staying busy and that you like your new job. I'm glad to hear that your daughter is doing well too.

Thanks Tom, I have missed you and the rest of my friends here. I have been staying busy, and like my job, and am enjoying the summer. Good to hear from you, too :)

[this is good]

Just stopped in the office to dry some sweat off. Whew, it's hot. Glad to hear that things are going well for you and yours. Good news on your sister's new place, even though it's a bit further out. I am also glad to hear that things have worked out for Jenni and Victor. It was a bit rocky there at first. I hope you get some time to relax and enjoy life, especially with this giant heatwave coming across the country. It already feels like an armpit out there and that's putting it nicely. Have a wonderful weekend!

I have a hard time just sitting in front of the TV....for the most part it doesn't hold my attention, so I do this at the same time. It really helps my stress level just to play around, visit, and have a little fun. I guess some people don't realize how therapeutic it can be !!

Hey Tammie.

It is really good to see you online again. Your husband is probably lonely for you. TV is far worse for the mind than writing posts, which is the best thing online. You are socializing and using your mind. All good stuff. TV is pretty bad stuff for the most part.

Lucy, who watched two recorded Docter Who episodes last night

A year already!!! Wow!

Thanks Kzinti, great to hear from you :)
I know what you mean about the heat, it's so hot here, you could fry an egg on the sidewalk LOL!!!

Exactly, me too- I just can't sit around in front of the TV doing nothing, I really don't watch anything, except maybe the news, so I sit and use the laptop, and blog with all of you, my friends I have met here, listen to music, and check my e-mail from family and write them back.

Hey Lucy!!!! Good to hear from you too :)
My husband has me when I'm not at work, he's usually snoozing when I'm online, or watching some show about Alaska King Crab fishing or Ice Road Truckers, which- just doesn't interest me, but, we are in the same room, because I use the laptop, and he can talk to me, if he wants. He just doesn't realize how much this calms me down, I enjoy it, and I like blogging, and reading everyones posts, and it is like a breath of fresh air to me, after a long, hard day.
