Morning!
Basic Abbreviations I shared this in another forum, figured it might be helpful to anybody who is new or just not too familiar with the forum abbreviations. ;)
Morning All. :coffee: Well I didn't end up going to bed until like 3 pm yesterday! :yikes: (To those who are new: I work nights and on my nights off I stick to my schedule, otherwise it messes me all up. :dizzy:) Anywho, I didn't wake up until almost midnight!!! :yikes: :faint: DH let me sleep cuz he knew I went to bed late. lol. (he gets off work at 9:30 PM) Aw well I am off so no biggie, right? ;) I watched a wonderful Oprah Show, all about that you get what you put out there. Ex: if you put out negative, miserable vibes, then that is what you get back. If you are positive and happy, then that is what you get in return. So that makes complete sense to me. So I am going to try to make a better effort. They also said to have a "Vision Board" Where you put pictures of what you want out of your life. So I want to try it. I already have a start, I found a houseplan of a house that DH and myself want to buy and have my mom move in with us. So I printed out the plan and framed it. I thought I was being silly for doing it, but it is something my step dad always believed in. I guess he was exactly right. Because he found a picture of a truck he wanted at the time and guess what? He got one eventually! ;) I am not saying its all for material objects. Like the house plan I have, yes it would be nice, but we would be happy to just be all together. (my mom and us) That is what is important to us. We don't want my mom to be alone anymore. (To the newbies: My stepdad passed way from cancer in 03') So that is where that comes from. My step dad wanted that truck so he could do the things in life he was passionate about. He always helped everybody and with that truck, he did so. So please don't misunderstand what I am trying to say here. You can go to Oprah.com if you want more info, the ladies on the show have books out and I want to buy at least one of them. Just makes sense to me. Same thing as they say if you are always negative and miserable, that is the kind of people you attract. If your the opposite, then that is what you attract. Also FYI: Oprah is having Bob Greene (her Personal Trainer) on the show today, and they are going to talk about weight loss, etc. Anywho. That is that. Today my goal is to get the clothes put away.......:rolleyes: They are all clean and everything, just need to be put away.........I am gonna work on our closet so it is easier to get clothes in there..........(has to wait until DH gets up and goes to work though, he gets up around 7:30 am and leaves a little after 8 am) ;) Anyways, have a good one! |
Morning - oops, almost afternoon - I'm late today! :lol:
Well, I got back to my weights yesterday and oh my gosh - can I EVER feel it today!! :D It's a 'good kind of sore' -yeah, that's it, sure! :lol3: Not much of news - just trying to get back to plan and stay there. Francie - are you feeling better today, I hope? Heather :D |
Good morning everyone!
Hope you are all feeling a little better today. Sassy I love you quote! I'm still feeling overwhelmed. Things are the way they are. Poor DdB, she's a lot like me and last night she had another migraine and ended up throwing up. I do believe she is a little overwhelmed as well. Poor thing. Between grad, exams and this boy who she was told liked her two years ago finally got the nerve up to speak to her yesterday and decided to go to dry grad with her (he wasn't planning on going) It sounded rather cute, she was alone at her locker and she sees him walking in her direction then do an about face go back to his friend's locker and then head back towards her and finally talk to her! They "hung" out during lunch and actually had a conversation. Both are so shy! Its just sweet! Anyway, we finally got the walls finished last night. As I said, I've been overwhelmed which means I don't get much done. I sit and procrastinate instead of biting the bullet and spending the measly few hours, it takes days! As my Dad and step mother should be arriving today, I have to clear off the table and scrape all our paint drips off (the primer was really runny) Oh and DdB left yellow residue in the bathroom sink when she was done last night, so that needs a scrubbing. Oh thank you, with writing this out now I have a sense of direction. I better go and get doing before I get lost again. Take care everyone:hug: And I hope you all have a great day! I am so grateful for this place and all of you :hug: K |
Morning friendsies!
Well, I had a busy night last night getting myself packed up for my camping trip this weekend - its been so long, I don't really remember how to pack for camping!!! Anyway, my sis and I are gonna take our dogs to a dog show and we decided to save $$ and camp. It should be fun - if we don't freeze or kill each other! I was a VERY naughty dieter yesterday - trying not to beat myself up about it too much, obviously I felt like I needed to eat that crap, and whats done is done. Sigh. Sassy - I think your vision board sounds lovely! What a great idea! And I love, love, LOVE! The calgon kitty! :D Raven - your Y classes sound fun! I used to love going to a gym that was by where I lived back then - they had awesome classes. Then I moved, and I think they've closed down now, but those instructers could get me MOTIVATED! I've actually signed up for a community center yoga class that starts next week - I'm really looking forward to it!!! Francie - :hug: feeling any better? Hope - I didn't do too badly on house projects yesterday :) I got my desk moved back in from the garage (all by my little self!) and the electrician came to fix a faulty socket in my garage (yeeks! it was all burned inside!!!). I wish I was handy enough to do that stuff myself, but it was definately worth paying him to do it since I had no idea what was causing the breaker to trip all the time. I also did a couple loads of laundry, ran the dishwasher, and changed my bed linens. I love a freshly made bed - it makes my whole life seem tidier somehow! No projects planned for the weekend since I'm gonna be camping. How about you? Momof4 - holy cow! Your fam really must have been exhausted! Good for you on the laps!!! Swimming is great exercise! Heather - :cp: Lifting weights kicks my butt!! Good for you! Leenie, buddly, everyone... :grouphug: have a great day! |
Hi Buddly - we were posting at te same time! :hug: I'm sorry you're overwhelmed. Have fun with the family visit!

Afternoon All........
Afternoon all.
I am in lots of pain for some reason, not the "normal" back pain, its strange......its in my neck and my ear??? and sometimes I get a twinge of pain that goes up my spine? UGH I hope its nothing and that it will go away once I go and lie down for a bit. I took some pain medicine........If not guess I'll have to go to the dr or whatever........ Lets just hope its stress or the weather or something.......... I need that vision board so I can put "Pain-Free" on it! lol. Have a good one all! :hug: |
Hi all,
My workout last night was kind of pitiful. I was so drained from the housework I did earlier that day that I could barely do anything. Couple that with not having done anything in a long time and whew! :whoo: My friend didn't feel that great either so we both just did as little as possible. Still, I guess it was better than nothing. I meant to do something today, but it may not happen. Amarie: I did sort and shred some crap in my computer desk here today. If I were to pick a goal for the weekend it would be to finish the spare room/new gym this weekend. Thank you for making me write that out loud! :D I'll try to be done by the time you get back from your trip. Gotta run for now: :hug: to those who need it, :bravo: to those who deserve it. I'll try to do personals later, but I have been reading. |
Trying to unpack some more boxes still....They are stacked sooo high...that is where we put all the boxes when we moved....ughh...it has to get done sometime so I guess I am the one who has to do it....ohhh yeah I hurt my ankle like almost a year and half ago right before i got prego with my last baby and today it is all swollen like it was then I dont know if its because i was on it sooo much this last two days but that really sucks...not really painful but I know that its there... Well ttyl...have a bday party tonight ..
|
where is everyone at??? I feel like I am just posting blogs to myself...HAHAHA... was an alright night felt pretty crappy because I ate two hot dogs because I had got my husband one and he didnt know it and went and got himself two so I had one already there and most everyone else had already ate...I only ate like a few bites of desert cause my daughter didnt wanna finish it. I probably came close to my calories I ate stuff that didnt have boxes to tell me and I am soo new at this i didnt have the time to look it up before i ate it...oh well life goes on but i am still doing good on hold those 5 pounds lost now I just need to get more...5 at a time add up!!! Ok well gotta be up at the buttcrack of dawn to go see my foster daughter hours away!!! yippee...hopefully someone gets on and updates before I get home tomorrow then again its the weekend everyones busy!!! have a good day...
Sassy I hope your doing ok...i hope your keeping your strength up with those highschoolers you work with!!! |
OK Momof4, I'll post again. Enjoy your trip! Maybe the time in the car will rest your ankle some. As for the unpacking, you can join me and Amarie in our quest to put things in their place.
Tomorrow I'm meeting a friend for breakfast and then we are going to see her husband spar in a martial arts fight. Should be interesting! I'm not sure what else I'll do. I could mow the yard but it's very dry and I don't want to kill it. The 100 degree days got to it. We're also smelling the smoke here in VA from fires in North Carolina hundreds of miles away. :flame: Very strange. I can only imagine how bad the air quality is there. Buddly: Did the in-laws get there ok? I'll bet your house looks great. I'm the same, I could have finished my projects much quicker too but at least they are getting there. Sassy and Shop: How are both feeling? Any better? Raven: Still on a yoga high? :yoga: I was beginning to do some yoga when I was working out more a few weeks ago. The workout yesterday included a little yoga, but I'm in such a bad state physically, it just hurt and suffocated me. I know I can build back up, but it's hard to get going again. Heather: I thought I might be sore after my first workout in a while, but it was such a half-hearted 40 minutes that I don't feel a bit sore today! :lol: You must have actually put some effort into yours! What are you going to do this weekend? Well, I better hit the hay so I don't oversleep tomorrow. |
Omfg..is June like the longest month ever? Or does it just feel that way because I want it to end asap, lol.

Hi Ladies,

Busy day today, got a fathers day karate (dh and dd) this aught to be interesting lol. Then its off to see my FIL and then to the honda dealer to look :eek: Then its food shopping and maybe some time in the pool. Hope your all having a great weekend, stay cool...but mostly stay happy :hug: Love yah ! Leenie |
Morning chicks! :wave:
I'm very tired today - I can't seem to do late nights the way I used to - ! :lol3: I have friends coming for dinner, so a nice healthy chicken cacciatore is one the menu! Still can't run with my injury - managed .75 of a mile on the treadmill yesterday - DE-press-ING! - but I walked the rest of an hour, which has to be better than sitting on my butt! ;) Have a great day all - Heather :D |
Alright gang here is my deal a year ago while attending school full time and working full time in my chosen field there was an accident. Which OSHA fined them for inwhich I suffered a 2nd degree burn to my right anke I hate looking at it but I dream of the day I can repair it. My left leg suffered the same but not as suffer the right one I had 4 skin removals on.
I have been down every since even more than usual The specialist told me yesterday no operation could be perfromed to repair the damage however thee are some neat alternatives. Honestly, nothing I didn't know a year ago :) But this week I have been in frantic state I just have no love in my life I give up on that . There are people who care for me but I want some romance |
Good morning ladies!!
Wet and cold here, but at least its very green! Yesterday it was at the freezing point when we got up! This made me very thankful I hadn't gotten the garden planted yet (I'm very late, but I was waiting for the ground to dry out and then got busy) My Dad and Step mother got here around 8 last night and we had a nice visit. We'll meet up with them again around noon at the venue and then back out here for a ham dinner. Thankfully things started to come together yesterday re the cleaning. I can't let them in the mud room or our bedroom, but at least the main part is clean enough and they can sit down in the bathroom! So all in all things are going fine. DdB is terribly nervous, so didn't get much sleep last night and then there is her dry grad tonight starting at 11pm. I baked a cake with the idea of decorating it for a cake walk, so we'll have to see how that goes as I'm making a neo classical butter cream icing that should be refrigerated so I figured I'd do it after dinner as my fridge is full. Congratulations Hope and Heather for actually getting some movement in, Good for you!! Momof4, when you do the drive to your foster daughters is it just you or are you packing all of your kidlets with you? Enjoy your visit. Sugar I'm so sorry about your accident and the lack of hope from the doctors. Healing takes time.:hug: Leenie does your hubby do Karate? I could just imagine mine at DdC's judo buddy night:lol3: Enjoy your day! Shop I thought June was flying by :shrug: Mind you it we just finished with the snow not long ago. Sassy I hope you feel better. Well I'm getting yelled at as we have to get ready! Take care everyone and have a wonderful weekend, K |
Good Morning Everybody!!! :hug:
Whew! I had a very busy day yesterday...went to my yoga class...ummm...okay...I will give you all a laugh about my very "un-Zen" thought in yoga class! Now, keep in mind that most likely I was also in the grips of some pretty bad pms as well...AND I had already complained about this occurrence ALOT! Friday classes are always a little more challenging than usual...Julie likes her sun salutations...alot... Well, we are getting towards the end of class and were working on some balance moves...I was all into it...on one leg with my other leg behind me...very om...:D when this *cough* gentleman cuts right in front of my mat and spot of focus to get the mats from the front of the room...he is from the Total Body Conditioning class next door and seemed intent on making everyone in our class focus on him as he left!!! Grrr!!! I fell out of my pose...and my mindset...oh...for most of the day! I have been working very hard on trying to keep the yoga principals...it's pretty hard during PMS...in case I haven't mentioned it...I get it pretty bad sometimes.. :bomb: Anyway...sigh...I wanted to cool down some but I am going to have to complain about this occurrence again...yes...they have the rights to their mats...but I have the right to feel safe that my concentration isn't going to be broken in such a blatant, intentional, manner..it is a safety issue at this point. I never did get back into the correct headspace, not even my cardio workout made me floaty again... Then I had to do the grocery shopping and it was a zoo...and we got caught in rush hour on the way home...so by the time I actually did get home I was pretty much like the girl from the Exorcist...(minus the pea soup) :spin: So, it was my mala to the rescue..(lovely strand of sandalwood meditation beads) Now, it actually isn't so much the beads (well that is a part of it) but more of the fact that using them allows me to focus better and actually get into the deeper relaxation of meditation. At any rate I felt better after I got some quiet time to use them.. And I feel much better this morning...not quite sure why I am up so early but I figure I will go take a nap soon... lol so how are you all doin???!!! |
Ahhh...okay, its time to get back on track. I have so much to do starting on monday. I have to clean up the house and throw out all the trash (the trash bags have just been sitting by the door for weeks now). I need to stop ordering pizza, lol. I gotta go to the store and buy a poster board, some stickers and stencils, and other stuff..because I'm making a homecoming sign for dh (even though he hasnt really been gone that, lol. But it will be his last welcome home sign in WA state). I have to take all the bags of clothes to Goodwill. Oh man..theres just so much to do. And even more to do when dh gets home. We have to schedule a time for the movers to come and pack up all our stuff for us (thank God for that..we dont have to pack anything!!! They do it all!!). We have to clean out this place and get rid of a ton of junk. We have to get a freakin apartment in MD!!! Take the baby kitty to the vet to get fixed. Clean out the car..get an oil change and tires checked out. Oh man..the list goes on and on and on and on, etc. LoL!! I feel so tired just thinking of all of that.
But for the moment. I'm gonna chill out and go back to reading Twilight for the 20 millionth time, lol. |
ahhhhhhhh I have to catch up on your posts I am just frustrated annoyed aggrivated ticked off angry irritated..ok im sure you get the point. For the trip I took the two older boys because 3 hour drive is too long for the babies. boys are 5 and 3. It was an 8 hour visit and My nerves are soo freakin gone I like and wondering if I really took my meds this morning. Long trip then I was trying to make the kids some pizza and my sweet loving dh put the pans in the broiler of the gas stove RIGHT BY THE Pilot light...yeah so house is filled with smoke and my pans are ruinned...yes he did clean the house for me today while I was gone but all that goes out the door..MY BRAND NEW PANSSSSSSSS..... My kids are pushing me and pushing me....Like I figured out what the problem is its that I tell them and tell them and they ignore me and ignore me and push me to my limit till I actually flip and scream at them. Then they know I am serious. Instead of I tell them once and they listen or maybe on the second time but no the flipping push and push and push....Ok well I have kids fighting screaming crying...ITS like a daycare that NEVER ENDS.....UGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....sorry its sooo negative I am thankful for my kids but when my nerves are gone they are gone....ttyl

Hi gals!
I can't stay long, I don't know how much battery life I've got. Yeah, I brought my blackberry camping - how lame am I? :grouphug: goodness, it sounds like many of us are stretched to our limits! I'll do personals another week, but I just want to send a great big boost of happy to those who can use it tonight! I ran agility all day. I'm so beat! I'm gonna go to sleep here in a second, even though its way early. Yawn!! Raven - your beads sound lovely. I have a strand of really pale blue celestite beads I sometimes use as a meditation focus when my mind is all over the place. And some days when its really rough I wear them as a bracelet. OK, I'm rambling and about to fall asleep. 'Night! Sweet dreams everyone! |
Hi girls,
It has been kind of a long day. I met my friend for breakfast and then went to the martial arts fight. They called her hubbies fight after the first round because his eyebrow got slashed open and he needed stitches. We ended up at a local clinic for that and then went to dinner. DF and I ended up going to see 'Hulk' after that. I enjoyed it and it was a good day but I am pooped. Oh, I got a call for an interview on Tuesday at Home Depot. From financial advisor to working at Home Depot. Yes, a blow to the ego, but ya gotta do whatcha gotta do. I need benefits and at least some cash flow. They also have tuition reimbursement if I decide to go into accounting. Whatever. Momof4: I don't even pretend that I could do what you do. I would be :dizzy: in a big way. How you do it with depression I'll never know. I even feel bad saying I'm tired b/c I know it doesn't compare to how you must feel. :hug: Leenie: How did the karate go? I bet that was fun to watch. Good to see you too. I miss your posts. Heather: An hour on the treadmill is nothing to sneeze at. I'd be on here braggin if I did that. I know it may not be running 10 miles, but I'm sure you'll build up quickly after your injuries heal. And what were you doing up so late last night? ;) Do tell! Shop: Your list sounds like mine: endless. Did you get anything done or just finish the book? Buddly:I thought of you while I was watching the movie tonight b/c one of the scenes was in BC and I thought, I wonder if this is what Buddly's home looks like? Glad the visit is going well. How long will they stay? Amarie, glad you stopped in. I have A Lot to do if I'm going to get that room done before you get home. Take your time!! Raven: That was definitely a day viewed through the haze of PMS! That guy at the gym didn't know how lucky he was to get out of there alive! I should be having the same issue in just a couple of days. Sugar: Sorry you are in the situation you are in. How are feeling today? Sassy: Back at work yet or did you live on the edge and just quit? |
Good Morning,
I don't know about you but posting here is like getting free therapy lol sort of. I'm glad I have a place where I can go and just be ME...ya know. We had some wicked storms last night, they were calling for flash flooding before I went to bed.... when you look outside right now its kinda creepy...everything is gray and still...the calm after the storm. I just hope nobody got hurt. Anyway.... later on this afternoon I'm going to meet up with a few 3FC's ladies/mods for dinner, two I've met before but one I haven't...should be fun. Hope, DH does not take karate, it was a special child/fathers day class that he took with my dd yesterday. Have a great day :hug: Leenie |
Hey Ya'all. :wave:
So far anyways (knocking on wood) my back and neck are better, lets hope they stay that way! lol. But my tummy is another issue! But I am pretty positive that in about 24 1/2 hrs from now it will feel better! lol. (back to work tonight) So with that I am off to bed, ttyl! |
Leenie, that sounds like fun. Have a great day. You deserve some time for yourself.
