We had plans to go to PA to a resort for golf and swimming today, but Alex woke up with a cough and fever. So we will be staying home. I'm sorta bummed, but I won't miss the two hour car ride.
Well I have nothing going on this long weekend. I went to the pool yesterday and got a horrific sunburn on my back, shoulders and face. I hope the burn goes away by Thursday, I have a job interview in Cincy. (wish me luck)
We're having a great weekend here! Saturday we cleaned in the AM, then went to IL's for a couple hours for MIL's bday. Yesterday the kids were outside a good part of the day. They played really hard! First we have this crazy flower sprinkler thing that flings the water around...boys got soaked! Then DH put the kiddie pool at the end of the slide and the hose over top and Peter had a great time on the "water slide". Then I set up the slip and slide and they both had a great time. I took some pics, I'll see how they came out and post later. Today we have to go pick up that fridge at the warehouse. Unfortunately the credenza's went to the trash, because DH's boss didn't know he was going to take them. So we still don't have much toy storage. We'll have a BBQ later this afternoon.
This was not a good week diet wise. I just couldn't get myself OP. Going to try and get it back together this coming week.
Lisa, good luck at the interview!! I got some freckles yesterday, that's about it!
Last Monday was the start of my "Life Change". I pulled out the ole Gazelle and could only do 15 minutes on it with MUCH struggling. Last night I did 25 minutes and was only a wee bit out of breath.
This is such a rush!!!! Who would have guessed that I would ENJOY exercise!!!???
Lauren, I will have freckles once my burn goes away. I still am in some pain from the burn. I knew better than to lay out in the sun. (What was I thinking?)
not much going on here today. My dad is going to mow the lawn, and that's the big excitement here. (I lead a really excitng life)
We have spent the entire weekend in the house with a sick child. I couldn't get the fever below 103 yesterday. He would nap for a bit then wake up miserable. Poor baby. It was high again this morning, but the Motrin worked and it's gone for now. He wants to go outside to play, but I don't want to push it! We will go out this afternoon in the fever stays away.
Aww Karen, poor kid. Hope the fever breaks or goes away or whatever. Robby's been crabby boy for a couple days. Not sure why, because he's not acting like it's teeth, he's walking around pouting and whining and clinging to me. :confused:
We went to p/u the fridge with the old Caravan we got for almost free last year...and it died at the warehouse! Thank God I followed DH in his truck! So we have the fridge in the van, but have to go back later tonight and call AAA. Sooo close...
Lauren, congrats on the close call...phew!
Lisa, Congrats on your interview. Sorry about the burn. I'm extremely fair so I feel ya!
Karen, Hope the baby feels better!(((hugs)))
WELOME SKYY!! ( Ivanna see my feet!!! LOL)
My weekend was as uneventful as I had predicted. Most exciting thing to happen is my 14 yr old son hates me......AGAIN. But thats a longggggggg story. He's with his Dad for the week to isolate his from his beloved friends. That'll teach him to lie and tell me I suck. (yeah right) Somebody tell me it gets better!!!! Lie if you have to.lol
Diet is fine, haven't weighed but there is no reason for anything but a loss. I'll weigh tomorrow.
Today it was 93 degrees with a heat index of over 95. Mom and I went shoping and bought a grill, which I had to put together with my ded. (remind me not to do that again) We finally ate dinner at 9 pm.
Rest of day was uneventful. I switched from aloe (which wasnt helping) to cocoa butter - much better.
Lisa, did you try white vinegar? My Gran has always sworn by it and it really does help. She always "pickled" us by soaking paper towels with it and laying it on out sunburn. It helps take the heat out.
Lisa, good luck, I'm sending good vibes your way!!
Stevi, I don't know about it getting better...my oldest is 14 but also a girl! So I have PMS fits to deal with on top of "teenager" stuff! I think I'd have popped him in the mouth for telling you that you suck but that's just me. I flicked Andrea in the mouth one time for smarting off to me. Not that it has stopped her...lol
Well I had play group with the man today. I had to go back early cause he was really upset! They said he did good for about 20 minutes then was off and on crying. They called me an hour later cause he was inconsolable. I went and stayed the rest of the time with the group. I think that's what I'll do from now on is leave for about an hour then go back till he gets used to it. All in all not a bad experience though!
Saturday I was down .6. I'll take it!! It's better than up .6. Well I'm off for now, the man is up from nap. Make it a great day everyone!!
I am happy to say that the boy is finally feeling better. He was still wanting to lay around a bunch today, but he did play some. The cat has decided that she LOVES laying right in the middle of his train table. He has been so nice about it. Her tail will be laying across the tracks and he just picks it up and runs the trains under it and then lays it back down. I guess she likes laying on the table enough to put up with it .
I'm still miserable on the 6 meals a day. I hadn't gained any weight the last time I wieghed, but I don't know how. I'm probably going to be starving to death once the baby comes! I wonder if it's going to be difficult to get back to no more between meal snacking.
Lauren: Did you get the fridge and the van back? Our home remedy that involves vinegar is for sprained ankles. You soak brown paperbags in white vinegar and then wrap the injured ankle and cover with ace bandage. You stink to high heaven, but it's supposed to help.
Stevi: Yikes. Hope things are settled soon. It's easier to put them in timeout at 3!
Lisa: Hope the burn is better and GOOD LUCK on the interview.
Hidy Ho Neighbors!
Down 1.5 this morning! ~Alright~ I had to refer to my fitday to see what I weighed when I found this site and I've lost 10 lbs since 5/10. Is that excessive? Not that I'm complaining but I don't wanna struggle to keep it off when I hit goal.
Karen, happy to here the lil one is feeling better, sick kids is no bueno!
Molly, I'm sooo sorry for wht you have been through. J/K.
Lisa, bet the heats not helping that burn!
Week of~~May 28th~~
I took some pics, I'll see how they came out and post later. Today we have to go pick up that fridge at the warehouse. Unfortunately the credenza's went to the trash, because DH's boss didn't know he was going to take them. 
So we still don't have much toy storage. We'll have a BBQ later this afternoon.
I got some freckles yesterday, that's about it!
