If it wasn't for bad luck my family would have no luck at all this year! The wife just got done cleaning the floors at work last night and then slipped and fell. Picked her up work and went to the ER, after sitting there til 2:30 in the morning they determined she fractured the head of her radius in her wrist, she is in a half splint for now then she goes to Dr. Jackson on Tuesday morning to determine whether they do surgery or place her in a hard cast. Dr Jackson should be able to take a nice vacation on us after replacing both my hips and now the wife's wrist! This is her first broken bone and its sorta funny seeing her all loopy on the pain killers , she don't know what to do!!!

Seen that lastnight on FB. Man that just sucks but could have been worse, she could have done that while you was all gimped up.

Hope she doesn't need anything more then just a hard cast and heals up quickly.

Phew finally found this thread. So had to blow off some steam... The past three weeks have been miserable at work, terrible unrealistic dead lines which has pushed me into working 60+ hours each week and getting anywhere from 2-5 hours of sleep a night. It doesn't help my weekends have been booked way back in June so I end up working Sunday evenings late each weekend.

And it just occurred to me today the last time I've looked at my clock and saw 5 and thought oh man I can probably go home soon was..... back in July. Today is gonna be a late night, tomorrow will be a late night. I'll take off saturday to go out and work on the hunting ground but then back to the office sunday and FINALLY next week should be back down to 45ish hours... But three weeks of this crap, I've had enough. My apartment is a wreck, I grocery shop on a day to day basis, couldn't tell you how many times I've fallen asleep in my work clothes, and as of recently I started recycling the clothes from the dirty laundry basket cuz I haven't had time to do laundry.

Tired and strung out,
T.J.

And on top of all this... I had this date set up with this girl I met in Columbus and have had to cancel it twice already in the past two weeks :tantrum:

Hang in there TJ. Hunting season will be here soon enough and you can relax. Then again, if you get any spare time you can probably rule out that date. . . . you will be hunting right? lol

I already made it CLEAR to my coworkers than when hunting season starts they don't even have to bother askin me on monday what I did over the weekend cuz it'll be the same answer week after week haha

As far as that date goes, I have till Sept. 28th to work it out, after that I'll have to see what week works for her in february rotflmao

60hr weeks suck TJ, hang in there!

Wife hit me up about us eating healthier. I'm all for it, and have been, but I disagree with the meal plan she has found online. I had planned on dinner consisting of either fish or chicken most of the time, with deer thrown in the mix, lots of vegetables, and salad. This "clean eating" plan she found has me out of my food comfort zone, and I'm pretty open to most foods. She claims too that it will save us money on groceries, but I don't see how, if we are buying things we never would have ate otherwise. lol

My idea of "clean eating" is finishing up a good meal without getting any of it on your good shirt. Guess we will see how it goes...

Hang in there TJ... You can start banging on some doves soon & bow season is right after that.

What the food plan look like Greg? My wife does our meal planning & has pulled up some recipes that I thought "no way that'll taste good" but to my surprise most of it is pretty tasty! I've dropped 10 lbs in the last year with healthier eating & increasing the cardio.

I know where your 10# went Sean. I need to drop it on to the next guy.

There has been a lot of weeks I'd LOVE to only see 60 hrs in a week.

Y'all should try spaghetti squash noodles. Easy to makes low carbs and tastes damn good with some homemade spaghetti sauce.

And thanks guys I appreciate. It's been a rough three weeks trying to meet these deadlines and having architects and owners breathing down your neck all day. Monday I'll finally be deadline free for a couple weeks.

I'll have to check it out when I get home. My biggest issue with it is some of vegetables, and other ingredients. I'm not real adventurous when it comes to veggies, I like the basics, corn, carrots, peas, greenbeans, but I'm not big on things like squash and asparagus and zucchini. One of the meal plans called for a few teaspoons of instant espresso as an ingredient for the chicken meal, as well as a blueberry dressing.

I know this sounds picky, but I'm not a picky eater. This is just out of my comfort zone. When I think of a salad, I think of your typical lettuce and veggie salad, not strawberries and almonds! I'm completely ok with eating chicken, tilapia, and salmon cooked on the griddle with some red pepper seasoning and that's it. I don't need a blueberry sauce...

I know I need to eat healthier, and I want to lose some weight as well, but this meal plan may be the death of me! lol
