(I'm really interested in working today.  Can you tell?)

I thought of those of us working today when I saw the picture of Monica's car all alone in the parking garage.

There are a total of 3 people on my floor today and one of them is leaving at noon, I was the only one in my parking garage, and the commute was a breeze.  One of our campuses is closed next week but I'm on the other campus's schedule so I'm working Monday and Tuesday.  The heat in my building gets turned off, but we typically only work 9-3 and can wear jeans so it's not all bad.

I think there are other people here, but I haven't seen anyone yet. I'm leaving at 1:30

Sorry ya'll have to work today! I'm out on the patio sitting by the pool. It's a tough life

Yeah yeah, whatever! I'm out early today as well. One of the best parts of this time of year is that so few people are working so I can actually get some of my work done uninterrupted.

I'm a Colorado girl. Something about poolside on Christmas Eve just doesn't jive for me. Now being home by the fireplace with an eggnog or hot cocoa I could go for!

My boss said I can leave "right after lunch."  I'll be out of here about the same time as you.  Then home to clean and decorate before Mom and Dad come over tomorrow.  I'd almost rather stay at work!

There's a difference between BEING at work and working. I'm in the first category - but I'm leaving soon :D

am I crazy to head to the grocery store? We have no food in the house!

Hear hear!!  With a cat in my lap and listening to Christmas music.  Although it's 50* today so what little snow we have will be melted by the end of the day.  There might be some tomorrow though.  Wishing I could ski tomorrow; the mountains just got a foot of new snow!!

Enjoy your pool, though, Hands.  Can't say I'd object to that all that strenuously.

I was in here checking on the IM result for Yanti and randomly saw this.  This was on the news her in Vegas.  There were a couple of follow up stories as well and part of a overall story about how there has been a rash of pedestrians being hit and many killed.  Sorry that it was someone close to you.

I've been down there twice for Christmas. It was weird both times. Today's run along the various river and lakefront places was much more fitting than the tropics.

I hear ya I hear ya in between all this non-working work talk

Kirstiron--as I said before, keeping this family in my prayers.

Tina and I spent our Christmas (which in Mutti's German tradition we've always celebrated on Christmas Eve) in the ER. It was almost fun, in a non-fun kind of way.

When I said I wanted a cat for Christmas, Santa, I did NOT mean a CAT scan!

The elbow's a lot more messed up than we thought, and I'd been baking, cooking, wrapping and carrying gifts etc. all day. (And it ain't exactly been quiet days before that, either).

Tina is exactly as messed up as I thought; we just wanted to rule out any kind of heart thing.

Here's this year's Christmas e-card/post/picture (attached, at bottom).

And for all of you specificially:

MERREE MANATEE CHREESTMAS!!!

This Manatee needs a great big hug.

Last night we noticed Copy cat was not walking right and she was pretty lethargic.  My vet couldn't see her today because they were full. We took her to the emergency vet--who was very kind and compassionate.....to learn she has lymphoma.  We decided on supportive care for her thinking we had maybe 3 months at best.  She died about an hour after we got home.  We are all wrecks.

So so sorry Judi! Such a hard thing to handle and being the holidays doesn't help. Will be thinking and praying for you and yours.

What exactly is wrong with your elbow, and please tell me that you haven't been swimming, or doing swim cords?

MERRY CHRISTMAS MANATEES! It's Christmas Day here and I am enjoying some peace and quiet before the mayhem begins.

Some of my family are spending Christmas with us for the first time in over a decade. Oh and Phil is a little OCD when it comes to cleaning, especially if he knows we are having visitors. So being at work Christmas Eve might have been preferable. Because to him it is perfectly reasonable to clean the windows, which means removing the security screens, high pressure cleaning the windows from the outside, removing the glass so you can high pressure clean the inside, then cleaning all of the tracks out and then putting the glass back in. Oh and starting this at 5:00pm on Christmas even is ok. But by the way stacey you said you were going to shampoo the lounge room carpet what's the go with that? "Well the cleaner at the local store is broken." "So go and get one from somewhere else." Needless to say there were some four letter words said under my breath to him and I started cleaning carpets at 6:30pm.

So have a very merry Christmas, I'm going to mop my floors while everyone else is still in bed, and then start to cook my Turkey Wellington in 90+* heat. I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas. Enjoy your family and friends. Next year Christmas will not be at my place (just kidding I love my family, and I'm so glad to have them here with me.)

Consider yourself hugged.  So sorry to hear this.  It is so hard to lose our furry friends.

Thanks.  Yanti, thanks for continued prayers for her family.  I'm sad to say that she died of her injuries.  She was very full of life during her short 36 years and I am grateful that I had the chance to know her.  Another reminder to not waste time and get 'er done, whatever "it" is for you.

Mary, I saw that you are still having some challenges relating to your knee.  When did you start wearing the Hokas?  When did the knee problems start?  Have you tried running in your previous shoes?  

(I'll post this on Strava as well.  I'm having a hard time following the group when it's in this archived mode.  Hoping the new group starts soon.)

I started wearing them in mid-August and the knee problems started in mid-late Nov.  My old shoes are pretty worn but I guess it's worth trying switching back to them for a few weeks. 

I noticed tonight when I was warming up for my strength workout (yes, thank you, I actually did it!!) that running in place didn't hurt.  Granted I was barefoot on carpet and was actually running around the living room playing with the dog, but whatever.  It's throbbing a little now but there was no 5/10 pain like there was yesterday within less than 5 min. on the road.

To my dearest Manatees, here's one of my favorite songs as a holiday wish for you:  "Deep Peace" by Bill Douglas

This Manatee needs a great big hug.

Last night we noticed Copy cat was not walking right and she was pretty lethargic.  My vet couldn't see her today because they were full. We took her to the emergency vet--who was very kind and compassionate.....to learn she has lymphoma.  We decided on supportive care for her thinking we had maybe 3 months at best.  She died about an hour after we got home.  We are all wrecks.

((((((HUGS))))))  I'm so sad for you, Judi.

Find a mentor. Make a list of at least three people that you could approach for help, list your specific needs and then be courageous enough to begin asking.
