Default 20-Someting July 6 FRIDAY!!!!!

Hello all. Well, I could not think of a good poll today so if anyone has a better one than the dumb thing I posted, please talk away.

Has anyone seen any good movies lately. I really want to go to the movie this weekend and don't know what to see.

Also, I am going to go and buy a maternity bathing suit. I don't need one yet, but in August I am going to the beach for a week and will be more comfortable in one I think. I am afraid if I don't get one now they won't have any left in August. So off I go. I looked on-line, but the only one I found was $135. Too much for a one week thing. I hope Target has one.

Really, if any of you are sick of listening to my maternity clothes talk, let me know and I will shut-up.

KO: Hey,I ment to ask you where in Irland did you pick to go. I remember you had some debate. That will be fun.

Tonya: I ment to ask you how the pizza went the other night. Pizza can really be hard.

Ok, come on and play today. trish

HI everyone. I get to leave at 12:30 for the weekend. THen we will rush and pick up Emma and finish packing... and off for our camping weekend. It should be interesting with Emma and Sadie. Poor Sadie is sooooo sad this morning. She thinks we are leaving her behind. Every time I pack for a trip, she knows she doesn't get to go. Won't she be suprised when we pack her up too!!! This we have a minivan and it is packed to gulls. We pulled out the back seat even. But we have Emma's porta-crib and stroller.... man kids need a lot of things!!!! (REMEMBER THAT TRISH!!) Last year we used my car and we had to have Sadie sit on our laps because we were so full!!

Kirtsy... hope things calm down for you!!!

Trish... I didn't get a maternity suit. If you can't find one, try getting a plus sized one. If it is stretchy enough to fit over your belly without being too tight, you will be OK! ANd you can always wear shorts too!

Well, back to work since I am leaving early.... and I have to lead a staff meeting this morning... blahhhhhhhhhhhhh

Morning Laaaaadies
YEsterday was bizarre so I didnt see ANy posts till today
I picked swimming but my favorite Summer Activity is going to the beach and getting my pale arse burned for normal ppl thats called tanning but hmm tan me? no hehe

Trish I chose Dublin Its more metropolitan and most likely easier to get around Cork had a great program But I wanted to make sure I got to travel and BTW did I mention ITS 2 MONTHS AWAY *deepBreaths*
and btw Keep the maternity debate going you know we all can't wait to be aunties to you lil one
As for Movies its been ages since I have seen one that wasnt on cable/ppv but i have been a reading fool I finished Catching Alice With is reminiscent of Bridget Jones but lacks the bite of it
and right now im reading Leave before you go (I have a Uk themed reading list it seems) this book is hard for me to get into but it has some high points Im also reading (i read multiple books at the same time makes the good ones last longer) Dh Lawrences the rainbow and ahem Lady Chatterlys Lover the rainbow is fantastic and lush and you will never look at a sleazy romance novel the same way again Lady Chatterly is great but doesnt compare to the rainbow.

Kirsty you're veggie sub sounds dreamy (can you tell im hungry) I think im opting for a boca burger for breakkie maybe with soem bbq sauce and no cheese

I ate low points yesterday till dinner when i made 4 cheese chicken and rice which wouldnt have been bad save for the fact that we ate late had a buttered roll before we left for appointments and had dinner when we came back at 8 and had double helpings UGH my mom and i have the same food triggers aand are dangerous together
tonight Chicken caesar salad
well salad and chicken marinated in caesar dressing
does any1 know the points for full fat kens steakhouse caesar?

oooh before i forget I posted my italian ground turkey recipe on the recipe board Its just a dump recipe and i think could be modified to whatever your lil ww hearts desired
ok enough of my novel
bbl

Default Morning!

I'm in early this morning! I usually don't make it to work before 10, but I had to drop off my car for a tune-up this morning so I made it into work by 9:15 a.m. I don't quite know what to do with myself.

Girls, I feel kinda depressed today. I'm not really looking forward to going to Atlanta this weekend because I'd rather be with my b/f, but I promised my friend I'd go to Depeche Mode with him. Then, I found out today that my college roommate asked another of our friends to be in her wedding ... and not me. They both live in New York City now and have gotten close again, while here I am in Virginia, 500 miles away. I hate this. Why is it so hard to maintain long-distance friendships sometimes? I was the only one of my group of friends in college (my sorority sisters) who left New Hampshire and New England, period, after graduation. And it's like I've been ostracized. I've gone up there for the weddings of three of my friends, but I wonder if they'd come down here. Steph and I HAD stayed friends, though, so I don't know what I expected. I had always figured I'd have her in my wedding one day.

Sorry. I'm just feeling sorry for myself today. I think I'm going to go drive around in the company Blazer for a while. I think I may play sick and go home early this afternoon, too, just so I can see Brian for a little while! I am going to WI around noon. I'm pretty sure I lost, so that's good,anyway!

hi kierie - 2 months - eek!! looking forward to hopefully seeing you soon then! hi jen - hope you have a fab time camping.
kim - i'm with you on the whole friends issue. i have some friends that live far away but we keep in touch and others that maybe only live an hour away but no matter how much i try they never bother to meet up or get in touch with me. there may be a really logical reason why she chose your other friend to be in the wedding. perhaps because they are both living near each other then she will be able to help more in the planning and organising of stuff. i know it is hard and it makes you feel left out, but don't let it get to you. i know i feel far from my friends in scotland and i remember hearing that school friends had gotten married and i wasn't invited to the wedding but other friends were. of course when i 'm rich and famous (sheah) they'll all suddenly get in touch, but i'll know who my real friends are.
btw, i'm very proud of myself cos on tuesday night i went out and i made sure i ate something before drinking so i wouldn't get too drunk. AND i also drank lots of water between glasses of wine. it felt so nice to wake up feeling good and then seeing everyone else with hangovers and recounting embarrasing moments. i wonder if i can do it again tonight....

hope you all have a fantastic weekend, i'll try to come back later,
kirsty

Kim, I feel the same way sometimes. There were 3 of us in college that were like sisters. I graduated first, in December. Then the next one graduated in June (1 semester later), then the third a full year later. She was resentful that we "left"her and stopped being as close to us. Then she moved to Milwaukee, while I was living there, and never called me or anything. When I got married, she didn't come. Nothing. The second friend and I were best friends, but that ended last year when she found out I was PG. See, first I got married in 1998 after being with my bf for 1 1/2 years. She was extremely jealous because she was with her BF for around 7 years and he never proposed. She made my wedding ****. Then she forced her BF to propose and set the date EXACTLY 1 year after mine. She asked me to be her Maid of Honor out of pity... not sure why... but then asked 5 of her HS friends to als be in it. They hated me because "they knew her first". It was aweful. They made me feel terrible at the wedding. I got up to give a toast like I am supposed to and one girl announced (this is terrible)... "we have been friends longer than you have"... Man she was cold! Also, I had lost my 30 pounds before the wedding and my friend hadn't seen me yet (this also made her jealous). I was wearing an 18/20 before losing weight, and got down to a 14/16. Well, she announce to me and the others that my dress would have to be specially made because they only came up to a 16. When I told her I was a 14 she got really made (that is the pic I have posted on the pictures thread)... when I actually came to the wedding... I LOOKED HOT! Horrible experience. She refused to call me after the wedding, so I told her I was PG... and that was the end. Sorry to make this so long... but you know, it just shows how some people never get out of that HS/College mindset. Some people just never grow up and take what things are at face value!!!

So Kim, don't fret it.... you are much to nice of a person to let that get your down. Hey... we are all your friends... and if I was getting married, I would ask every one of you to be in my wedding!!!

BIG HUGSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

BY THE WAY... I have a new friend that I met when I moved back here from Milwaukee about 5 years ago and she is wonderful. We live in the same town but both have busy lives, yet we know we are still friends... She is due with her first baby in about 2 weeks!!! And she is tiny (I am jealous!!) Irronically, we met through another friend that I knew from childhood... and she knew in HS.... Took us this long to meet up!! Oh that other friend doesn't speak to us any more... Friends really do come and go!!!

Kierie... If only you could see my family... I wish I could set the camera to take a pic of us, but the dog is far too impatient to wait for the camera! BTW... Emma LOVES Sadie and vice versa. The cutest thing... and Sadie is 4 times as big as Emma!

jen, i've had friends go all funny on me after i lost weight. one of them you will actually know lolly! she always makes comments on how skinny i am now and how she looks rubbish next to me. both statements are not true btw! but part of me wonders if she preferred being my friend when i was fat cos she felt it made her look better? the laugh of it is that she is naturally slim, good looking and very intelligent. but she's very insecure and probably too competitive. i just ignore it, but sometimes i feel like shaking her! a good friend should want you to be the best you can and not someone to make them feel better about themselves.
not everyone can be as perfect as us i guess! since it looks like i'm not going to be getting married for a while (but you never know) you guys can all come to my wedding (if we're still alive).

my theory is you meet the friends you need at that time
im maybe friends with 2 peeps from HS almost none from college #1 well maybe 2 from there email buddies
and 4 from college #2 2 of which are/were my best friends now we're beginning t drift much more obviously and the 3rd we were never super close #4 and i go thru close and not close cycles
but its wierd b/c one friend went to another school and the other is at the same uni as me but our lives are drasticaly different shes married and pondering Kids I'm single and doign my thing
now that more of her friends are married she doesnt want to hang out with ppl who arent married
Most of my friends who i have alot in common with go to school with me and even those change
and ofcourse I have you guys who i wouldnt trade for a milllllllion new peeps and if i ever get married Id just ahve one of those HUGE bridal parties or several weddings lol
anyway IM STARVING
and too lazy to go downstairs

HEY BELLE..... When you go camping, what do you guys eat??? I LOVE to camp, but always eat horridly. When I was little my family camped all the time and we cooked wonderful meals. Shish Kabobs, veggie packets, huge breakfasts. Hubby and I usually eat hamburgers/brats/hotdogs/chicken breasts. Also, we snack on chips and cookies (BAD). This year I am packing myself lots of fruit and carrots and dip. And I bought Tostito Baked chips!! I was just curious as to what you did!!! Oh and do you tent camp or have a camper?? We are tent campers, but may in the future buy a pop-up camper. I can't go camping in a luxery camper, it's just not right! thanks...
