Nothing new here. Today I'll do a manuscript critique and evaluation for a young girl who has written her first book. I'll get a haircut, and then try to do some writing later.
Good morning! Another summer day is about to happen. We nearly broke the record yesterday.
No big plans for today although I may go to town and brave Wal-Mart. I need to do one of those boring shopping trips - things like a new mop, a BBQ cover, batteries and cleaning supplies. Exciting, eh? I just may have to buy some quilting fabric to cut the boredom. My next Block-of-the-Month course starts this Saturday.
Well I haven't slept yet and I'm craving Lightly Salted Dry Roasted Peanuts.. I could say I overindulged the past two days with them cause they are all gone. Guess I'll need to start Phase 1 for a couple days..
I'm back. My computer needed to shut down and re-start.
It's supposed to be a hot, humid day after getting used to cooler temps. I'm getting back into my normal routine today, which means getting over to Curves first thing. I'm going to stop off at Mom & Dad's afterwards for a quick coffee and chat. They're eager to hear all about my trip and how Caite made out. The girls start gymnastics this afternoon, and I'm taking them out for supper afterwards since C & R have a PTO meeting. The girls want to go to the Chinese buffet that's right next to gymnastics, so that's the plan. Oh, boy, that's going to be a toughie for me. Any advice, Ruthie?
Cottage! Advice from me? You know I'm addicted! I'm also going to town today and had better get going so I'm not there at noon. (I wonder if they do breakfast.)
JellyBean, proper sleep is essential when you are dieting. Why on earth are you not sleeping? Ditch those peanuts.
Belle Mer, I'm sure the young girl will appreciate your help. It's nice to have a mentor.
Regarding Chinese Buffets, they usually have one or two things that are close to SBD friendly.
Eat a lot of broccoli first. Then go back for the protein. Choose what looks like it isn't too full of fat or sugar, and don't stress over it. Have fun.
Twynn, sorry to hear DS isn't feeling well. poor kids.
I have to prepare for an interview I have at 11. NOt sure I want this one. (that probably means they'll offer it).
So yesterday I had a pleasant surprise. My dog started carrying on as she was tied out so I went to bring her back and I hear "hello Lori!" I looked and there was a semi-familiar face! OK, back up...my mother raised us 9 kids while Bob And Bev raised their two girls, and I raised my son while Bob and Bev raised Brent. It took me a minute to realize it was Brent! This kid I've known since he was born! He's 22 now. He worked the state fair out in Syracuse and was headed back home to Buffalo, I'm directly in the middle so he stopped to say hello and hung out for the day.
My son needed a ride to go for an interview so we picked him up in the convertible Mercury Brent showed up in! I drove! I'm not a fan of fancy cars or convertibles let alone sports cars, but I had fun. But then, I think it's due to the fact that for 8 weeks I've been bored out of my mind and this put a break in the day for me! I got some sun on my arms and face .
