Jo's Kitchen (and yes, the coffee IS on...)

[JustJo]

Good morning everyone

Coffee is on, and I think Zimmy's idea of french toast sounds yummy!



I always liked second shift (until I became a mom) because I could have a leisurely start to my day and get things done before I had to go into work. It's also a big vote of confidence in you Zimmy, since that's the busy time in the hotel. Sounds like it's going great!

Glad you travel with your kiddos too Snow. We always do, and it's one of the big things I take into consideration...kid friendly is really a must. Ours are fine with staying in the hotel while we go out for a bit too (in fact they like it, especially if there's room service involved for Rooster).

It's one of the reasons I hesitate on reunion....it falls during the school year for us, so coordinating with kids is feeling like a challenge. Not sure what we'll do about that yet.

My boss is taking a "mental health" day today, which means I automatically get one also, even though I'll be working

I'll be calling in a little while to see if I can get the number for my mother's phone in her hospital room, so I can see what's going on there. They're supposed to be making a decision about surgery today, although it's hard to say when that would happen. They have her on blood transfusions and potassium....when this happened 5 or 6 years ago, it took 2 weeks for her to get strong enough to survive the surgery.

Think I'm going to need the big pot of coffee today.



Hope you all have a great Monday!

Good Morning Jo Jo,

Hugs! I hope your mom is doing good and that her surgery happens soon. I know all to well, what the waiting game is like. my dad had open heart surgery and waiting for the dr was the hardest. One day you all will have to come up and I'll get permission to take you and let you all watch the duck march. You can be an honorary duck master for the day. I like second shift also. You can run errands and take your time waking up. Unlike, last week where I had to be up at 5am. I couldn't wake up until almost 8am.

Have fun today!
