Just watched the absolute final episode of Friday Night Lights :(
I am hoping that the Aqua team breathes new life into this Buggest Loser season. Someone needs to bring some positivity! Negative-Nelly :(

I support the Occupy Wall Street's ideals. I do not support the actions of Occupy Oakland: destroying property and running up city costs=sad
My 1st time sharing a room w/ Zoe went well! Marisa's 1st time sharing w/ Hazel went well too but had a 2am climb-in-bed for 45 min. moment.

What is with this season's Biggest Loser? I just can't get behind these people. We are in episode 4 and I still don't care about them :(
Running is the best sleeping pill!

4.17 miles of pure running bliss!
I am going to attempt my second run in January today. Wish me luck! I am still a little wheezy but psychologically I NEED to try this today!

Miracle of miracles, my husband just asked if I wanted to leave work a little early today. Those of you who know him = 2nd time in 10 years.
I have zero meetings today - what a rare treat! I should get LOTS of stuff done. ;)

I had the BEST night sleep last night since before Christmas with ZERO aid. No pills, alcohol or anything else. I am so excited! I needed it

I think I am going to cry! My doctor just called and my thyroid levels were normal! It must be my Shingles or my cold meds or my inhaler :(
My Yahoo acct was hacked. If you get spam from me, I apologize in advance. Damn Zappos! tracyldunn or tracyarrowsmith @yahoo.com = sender
Went to bed with HALF an Ambien last night and that sure did the trick. No foggy hangover this morning! Slept right through the night. Yay!

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed - that all men are created equal! - MLK Jr.

I am the proud owner of an iPhone 4s on the Verizon network. Some of my text messages didn't make it over from AT&T since Nov. but so far :)
Last day bonding with my remote work family: Tab, Iz, Sue, Linda, Gina, Christine - I'm going to miss you gals!!!

Wednesday, January 11, 2012

I'm switching my phone from AT&T to Verizon (from the iPhone 4 to 4S) tomorrow & I may not get texts. Trying to reach me? FB message or call
Went to bed at 7:30pm - almost slept all the way through to 6:15 this morning. I needed that! This cough is annoying but I can function. :)

Tuesday, January 10, 2012

Ahhhhhh, great night sleep! I REALLY needed that. Ready to bond with my wonderful work family today at an off-site 3-day extravaganza! :)

WHAT? sensory symptoms can linger for a few months or w/ postherpetic neuralgia can last for months or years after the shingles rash clears.
Through my Shingles-induced sleep-deprivation I am either having an emotional breakdown or breakthrough. I pray for the latter... :(
It's 5AM & I can't sleep! Awake for at least 2 hours & I have a VERY busy week ahead, not to mention my training running for upcoming half.

Sunday, January 8, 2012

Phew! Another fabulous day with my sister, nieces, daughter & my bestie Marisa! Emotional, grounding, centering, enlightening, fabulous! :)

Quote from my office roomy Michael: sometimes when a man has the right amount of the right cologne, I want to go up to them & snuggle=agreed

Friday, January 6, 2012

Oh no, Hazel was up at 6:45am this morning. Ouch! Good thing it's Friday. She is usually a 7:30 girl but she has an annoying cough :(

Thursday, January 5, 2012

Hey, current and past El Cerrito peeps - is anyone in touch with Laurie LaPointe?

Tuesday, January 3, 2012

Hope this bout of Shingles does not threaten my first half marathon at the end of March.
I am starting the first work day back from my vacation with an email from my long-lost co-teacher from Los Angeles Unified and Dyer Elem. :)

Heading to Studio Grow this morning in Concord with my sis and her kids. Hope everyone else didn't have the same idea!
