This week at work has been ok, had some highs, lows and aggravation. This past Tuesday, I found out a good friend of mine at work passed away. He was 1 of our drivers and he nicknamed me the 'candy lady' during my time doing office work and was always interested in how my PT was coming or biking trips etc. I did not know that he had sleep apnea ( he was of normal build) and died from complications from it. Eliza took it particularily hard ( just broke down as we had our meeting) since this past weekend, he dropped off a Cockatiel at her place and spent an hour showing her and her husband how to care for it/ answering questions and the last time I saw him was this past Friday at work. I had tears in my eyes but was not crying, unlike Eliza and Keira.

I was really astounded at some of my other coworkers callous reaction to the news of someone we have known for years no longer being around now. R said she couldn't believe how Eliza reacted. I was like uh, she hung out w/ him just 2 days ago?!? Then R proceeds to tell me about how Keira was going to see if her daughter wanted to take the bird but guess she was taking too long getting back, so he asked Eliza Saturday night if she wanted the bird. Then Keira got mad and blew up at him as they were ending their shift. The way R was talking though, it was almost like she wanted me to get mad at him too. She was like oh, then he turns around..and gives the bird to Eliza instead! Then one of the night shift ladies (working her normal Tues/Fri day shift) mentioned how he was always fighting w/ his wife....I was like wow, you guys trying to get me to get mad at a dead guy?!? I thought of saying maybe that's why Keira was crying, bc she was mad and now look!

Then Bob was gloating kind of. Just brought up how Randy and Angel were in their 50's, not here anymore and here he is at 71, still kicking. I literally do not know how he could have seen my reaction after and still just kept on saying crap. John in the cutting room as we were waiting for a last job, mentioned how everyone is getting a late paper tomorrow cuz we have no driver....at that moment, I just let everything go. They don't matter but then does that mean I/ you never say anything then???

We are doing 3 weekly papers for Galesburg, IL since their facility closed down last week. Sunday should at max be 4-5 hours and minimum be 2-2.5....we get to do a few of their monthly papers next week too so super busy! A town closer to them is doing their daily stuff.

I deposited $180 into Savings this week and have almost $3200. I celebrated today's work shift feeling proud to have gotten 32 mailbags all on 1 skid! Usually you can aim realistically for 16, maybe 20 bags..both D and J were impressed!! I nixed going to Sister's Cafe though for my on my way home stop at Wendy's. I got my dresser out ( put my new books on my nightstand, put half of my CD's into the new case ) and now have my hybrid in it's place. Tomorrow as I await going to the IceHogs game, I am going to dust, vacuum and maybe mop my floor in my room. I might have enough space now to do my DVD workouts now....

I tried a turkey sausage, egg whites, potatoes and cheese bowl from Jimmy Dean this past weekend and while it was good, it was not filling. I did not like my other new food taste of Gouda Mac and cheese last week either. It was creamy but lacked the flavor I find in the 5 cheese 1. I am hesitant to try my 1 pot keto meal but am hoping for the best someday next week. My new 'healthy' at home snacks are pita chips and multigrain crackers w/ CheeseWhiz or tuna and melted cheese.
