  • Ya..all the light colored clothes. I dont call them whites, cuz I throw in pinks and light blue and all that stuff, lol.

    I almost bought a pizza today. But I told myself that I didnt need that extra grease, lol.
  • Good Morning!



    Good Morning,

    I thought I would start everybody off right this morning with some fresh fruit! lol.
    I am currently doing clothes so I have some pants to wear to work tonight. I did get ALL of my other clothes ALL put away, momof4 is right, that is the hardest part of laundry!!! lol. I slept yesterday from 11 am until 9:30 PM, 10 1/2 hrs!!! I guess I was making up for the lack of sleep from earlier in the week! lol. And I had the craziest dream!!!! I was back in HS again *insert horror film music here* and had a dream about my ex! But it was totally strange! We were both so nice to each other! It was sickening! lol. (IN HS this ex of mine and I fought constantly, were the ones who were always breaking up and getting back together) anyways in my dream, like I said we were nice to each other and in the dream I dreamt that we were breaking up, only it was very nice. He gave me this big 8X10 picture of him with a note inside that said, "I will always love you." Which is weird because that was the song that was playing when we actually DID break up! lol. I dunno why in the heck I dreamt about him, I haven't thought about him in a LONG time! lol. I thought maybe it represented a couple things: first that I miss that girl that I "Used" to be and secondly that maybe I have finally moved on from the past, even though I thought I already had??? lol. Oh yeah and I also kissed his mom goodbye on the cheek, only it wasn't his mom, it was my 2nd exes mom, who I actually liked........lol, then my 1st exes brother came running outside and gave me a big wet kiss! YUCK!!!! What do you all think? Have I completely lost my mind??? lol.

    Well I hope you all get your rest.

    I am hoping that this week at work is a good one. I am gonna try to keep up the positive attitude. Oh and DH said they changed out PTO time (that is Paid Time Off) right now we accrew so much a month and you can keep it until the next year if you still have some left and at a certain point it stops acrewing. But anyways, starting in October they are going to do the give it to you all at once then if you don't use it by the next October, you lose it! Now the people who have tons of PTO time acrewed will be well SOL. And if you don't know what that means ummmmmm sorry I can't say it here. its $hit out of luck. lol. Basically they will lose all their time unless they use it up before October. So I see some vacations coming up soon. lol.

    It is good for us that do not acrew PTO time, like me. lol. But its bad because its like putting a million dollar check in front of a gambling person because I just "Have to" use it. But I have had jobs before that they give the time to you all at once and I just had to learn to ration it out. So that is what I will have to do I guess. lol.

    Anywho. That is that. I am so tired and I shouldn't be I slept so long! Maybe that is it. lol.

    Anyways, you go girls, you all are doing great and I am well, not. lol.

  • I was like she put her lights from her ceiling in the washer???LOL Not even thinking laundry!!! Well I am finishing everything I am starved so trying not to empty the cupboards. It must be from everything I was doin today. I gotta go to the calorie forum and see if you add calories when you do a lot of work or no...ok night i gotta be up at 8...lata
  • Nooo!!!! I havent totally lost my mind..YET!!! LMAO!!!
  • Good Morning,

    Food shopping done, put away and family fed breakfast. I bought Special K with Berries.... ya know, its pretty darn good. I worried that the strawberries would be icky but they weren't, they got soft real quick. Nice change.

    Gotta clean out my car today, its still messy from my trip in April to the shore LOL.

    Well kiddies, have a great weekend. TTYT.

  • Attempt number three!!!
    Hey Chickies!

    I have done two pretty long posts over the last few days and they have all gotten lost in cyberspace and I didn't have the time or energy to re do them...sorry girls...

    This week has been very busy with car maintenance...rescuing baby birds...lots of errands and dealing with massive fatigue...oh...don't forget spats with DH and massive emotional eating! (Didn't actually throw up but sure was nauseous and miserable...)

    But! Things are definitely looking up anyway! Yesterday was very good...and I have found a book that just may have changed my life. (I am really not exaggerating!!!) Have any of you guys read the book Potatoes Not Prozac? It's by Kathleen DesMaisons... I picked it up at the library a few days ago and haven't been able to put it down! It is basically a food/addiction plan for people who are "sugar sensitive" I tell you...it was like seeing myself in almost all the pages...it was almost spooky... I am going to buy the book and start working the plan (it has 7 steps...sorta like OA I guess but from a biochemical stand point...) I am optimistic....

    Oh...and I don't know if you guys checked my blog but I had to change Ys...And I did make it to pilates class on Thursday and it was great even though it was a little noisy with the kiddos...I was actually able to tune them out just fine...

    I am sorry Chickies...I am not fully back to my bouncy self but I wanted to let you all know I am here and you are loved...Hope everyone has a great day! luv luv Everybody!!!
  • Sooooooooo I'm supposed to be cleaning right now. And I have the tv on in the background, I was listening to motocross. Then all of a sudden, the tv changed to Vh1, and I Love the New Millenium was on. At first I didnt wanna watch it, I was gonna save it for later..but I gave in. I sat down for an hour watching it, lol. It was pretty funny. They so need to release all of those I Love the whatevers on dvd!!! I already have the I Love the 80s game, lol. Anyways...I should go back to cleaning..but I feel all relaxed and lazy, lol.
  • Good afternoon!

    Hope you are all having a nice relaxing Sunday.
    It is beautiful here with the sun and a breeze. When Hubby got home yesterday he cut the front yard, which I hate doing as its all bumpy and swampy in areas. So I just have to do the back which I prefer. I'm hoping for a better day today as yesterday was one long anxiety attack. Finally when I picked up DdA from her friend's we went to the er. My blood pressure was up to 199/124. So I got to stay there for four hours and they agreed it was anxiety and gave me some ativan. I wouldn't have worried so much except for the pressure on my chest and back, scared me a little. I'm hoping to spend some time outside and do a reboot.
    Hubby just left for work again, he should be back Tuesday or so. Its his birthday so the girls made him breakfast.

    momof4 on the fruit question I don't know if canned fruit is bad perse, its what its packed in. If its in a juice thats one thing, but most are packed in a sugar syrup. Frozen fruit is another great option. I love frozen grapes, especially in summer and personally I like frozen blueberries, but with the ages of your kidlets it could make a terrible mess and lots of blue stains! Oh and congrats on the all the working out and getting so much done, I'm envious!

    Hope I hope you have some good shoes for work. Walking on that cement for 8 hours is tough. I knew one lady who was a manager at the home depot here and she said they had to wear steel toes shoes all the time. If you have to do that just think of all the calories you can burn and the work out your legs will get! The bike ride sounds like fun.

    Raven I was wondering where you had gotten to. That sounds like an interesting book.

    Hi leenie, francie, sugar, amarie, sassy, cathy and everyone else

    Well I better go, since its so perfect I want to strip the bed and wash our duvet and sheets and get them all on the line. Problem is I'm so sleepy from the paxil and ativan and lack of sleep etc.

    Oh well, have a wonderful day and take care,
    K
  • Sleepy...

    Taking a quick nap, then better do some laundry - I had to wear my too-big undies today
  • It went well today....My practice paid off...but the cleaning all looks for nothing...seriously if you would see my house it is AWFUL....It depresses me even more. Like I seen about that who cluttered house helps people stay depressed and not lose weight so I want to stay uncluttered here and keep it clean. Just i get frustrated cause my house gets dirty like 4x as fast as most peoples and people are always stopping by so I have to keep on it. Where we lived before it was just family so it wasnt a priority to do it right away I would clean later in the day before dh came home. Now I have to constantly keep on top of it unless I want to be embarrassed if someone shows up!! I got a great nap today I went the whole way up to the third floor to sleep in my bed for once and it was sooo goood I didnt even wake up until the phone rang and the dh got me up. Usually I nap on the couch with the boys and its so uncomfortable constantly tossin and turnin...so yeah I got some rest. I gotta run some movies back to the movie place I think I am going to stop renting movies because I can never return them on time and end up with money in late fees that I coulda just bought the movie..

    Hope everyone has a good night chat with you all tomorrow!!
  • momof4~When my place was messy..I was more depressed and had more anxiety. I was always so much more happier when we went out. Finally I told dh that we had to clean the place up and keep it clean so my depression & anxiety could get under control. And it worked!! We clean every sunday. I dont feel as depressed anymore. I'm dreading dh coming home and dumping all the crap from his seabag in the middle of the floor. He does it no matter what, I cannot prevent it.
  • awww that stinks that you will have all that to clean...but yeah I agree about it causing that stuff when its messy. Cause me it would overwhelm me and I would just lay down and try to block it out cause I knew I couldnt clean it all at once so why bother trying!!
