Ruining Jello

Today:
• 35 minutes on the elliptical
• 15 minutes of free weights with da wiggly-jig-jig arms
• made Seafood Alfredo for dinner
… but I made it without cream
I made Jello for dessert. Jeeze, the way my DS & DH go on about that stuff you would think it was [...]

Accomplishments

of others, not so much mine!
• My 62 year old brother ran a 26 mile marathon, running the whole way.
• My 14 yr. old son just spent 3 1/2 hours taking a SSAT. For inspiration, I printed out a picture of Yoda yoda-ing to Luke… “Do. Or Do Not. There is no try.”
And me? Well, [...]

A cranky Sisyphus

It’s been almost three months of 3 to 4 times a week at the gym. When I got home from the gym this morning, I dug out my measuring tape and my ancient much-folded record of my Measurements Through the Ages.
Sigh.
Not much has changed, and some areas have even gotten bigger, for cryin’ out loud. [...]

Happy Halloween!

2:30 approached and DS still didn’t have any ideas for a Halloween costume. He had some lame-o ones which I panned. Come on, how hard is it to be “A Golfer”, for cryin’ out loud. If my son is going to go door to door begging for handouts from strangers, he’d better have a costume [...]

2-do-4-2-day-is-done

I’m having on of those rare days when I’m whizzing down my to-do list, checking off items left and right. Dabbling in a little bit of everything today, as I’m not scheduled to work at our restaurant, so I’m taking care of the Other Stuff. A catering menu is off to a good start, a [...]

Chick-A-Licious

“I don’t know what I’m doing with my hair these days.”
Thank you Patty . I would make an acceptance speech, but I’m too chicken, plus I can’t think of any good yolks.
My ‘track’ has many diversions, ruts and detours, and way too many concession stands but I try to stay within vision of it. Certainly [...]

Lil’ Shaver

DH and I have been wondering if DS has started shaving yet. (He’s almost 14 years old.) DH wondered this because a can of shaving cream that usually lasts him for months is empty. He casually broached the subject last night and DS said yes, he’s shaving. “Be careful”, were DH’s words of advise. DS [...]

Guilty Pleasure (one of many)

Just finished watching “Survivor” on the computer. So much better than on the TV, as commercial breaks are oh, maybe 30 seconds. This show has been my guilty pleasure since the days of Richard Hatch, that tax evader. Rupert is so far my favorite player. Yau-Man and Bob Crowley, an old high school physics teacher [...]

Your Sunday Funnies…

This video had me laughing this morning, and thanks to inkheartmeg, I am able to post a link to it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ih6W19KTlZo THANKS MEG!
Sorry, Chickies, as hard as I tried I couldn’t get the video to load in here. Actually, I’ve never seen a video on a 3FC blog before, so maybe it can’t be done.
The orange [...]
