TGIF!

DH is away so this is the first morning I have actually been organized enough to have a few minutes before dashing out the door to get the kids to school.

Haven't had much time for exercise this week so hopefully spinning my wheels in place counts

Might actually be sunny today although they are saying more rain for the weekend. My lawn is starting to look like a hayfield.

gotta dash, pour an extra cup of coffee for me this morning!

Back and coffeed up! I boruhgt an extra one for Kim and there's more in the big 20 cup urn.

The sun is shining! I think it's the sun. It will be too wet to garden but my attitude should improve.

Yesterday was a bit of a loss as it rained most of the day and I moped! I gave myself a good talking to in my Journal and hope it helps. I seem to be in a rut as far was weightloss is concerned. I need to suck it up and get over it.

The Girls are going stir-crazy after all this rain so I am taking them for a double-lead walk this morning for sure. Lucy is particularly nuts. She is acting sillier than usual, as if that were possible. I will need to put the prong collar on her for the walk unless I want a dislocated shoulder!

Gee, I sound kwabby - more coffee and do something useful. Maybe it's time to put away the winter clothes? And maybe get out the summer ones? Is there hope?

Catch up later.

Happy Birthday to my dh! He hates parties but we are doing the cake and prezzie thing tonight. He's a sick and demented man--can you believe he was bribing our 4 year old to tell him what he got for his birthday? Bless her heart, she never gave it up!

It is gorgeous here this morning--rie for me to FINALLY get inot the garden and finish my planting! I agree Ruth, many days of rain have put us all a wee bit behind!

Rachel, glad you're enjoying the seminar

Jenny, I'm thinking positive thoughts for you today hon, just imagine us chickies holding your hand through it all...

Well, gotta run and feed M and then out to my garden! have a great day everyone

Good Morning Ladies

Pooky, happy bd to your hubby!

The rain held off yesterday until about 530, it was perfect! I think this weekend hubby and I will be scraping and painting the bottom half of the house. I would like for him to rent a sprayer so that it wont take us both too long to do it. Then hopefully we can paint the top half too (big house ) We shall see.

My eating is back on plan, and I braved it and got on the scale today to see how much damage I did LOTS!! In less than 5 days, I gained 6lbs It would be really nice if I lost it as fast as I put it on!! Some of us really do put it on overnight!! Ok enough griping!

Im off to make coffee, and see whats for breaky.

Robin

Talking Morning to the cranky chickies

Hello all-
Well, I did do my walk yesterday although getting it in today will be a bit harder. I finally made an appointment with the Chiropractor for later this morning as I can hardly move. My shoulders and neck are so screwed up lately-my hairdresser swears it is because of the amount of hair I have to lug around Really though when I woke up hurting clear over my chest I knew it was time to spend the 25 bucks and get put back together. Then I am planning on relaxing and not throwing it out of whack again for a few days. Yea Right!

I am happy to report though that I have been COMPLETELY OP for 3 days now Those first 2 days were killers-yesterday though I started feeling good again-let's hope today goes well too!

Pooky-Hope you are feeling better-When I woke up this morning, my chest was hurting, and of course I started obsessing and was in to a full blown panic attack before I could stop myself. Thought I was having a heart attack. Bad...real Bad-still shaky-that is what prompted me to go and get my back worked on today.
Hope you guys have a good time tonight!

Big Hello to Kim and Scooby--and Ruth-I wish I could get my doggage trained as well as yours!

See ya all!--have a great day--drink your water

Thumbs down Good Morning Ladies

Well this morning is looking a little better to me, although I am at work and have had breakfast yet. I just couldn't do it yet. I have to go to court in a few so I will pick eggs on the way back. Anyhow, the meeting last night went fine, they did a "dry run" of the youth rally, so it took longer than I thought. I have never seen that before. but anyway. Well we had dinner at your favorite restaurant last night too, it was delish! And may I state I was very well behaved, I ate a salad and chicken breast with water. I was full but not uncomfortable. (like I normally leave from there) Everyone at the table had dessert too, but I was satisfied and did not even taste, All I am remembering is my hard work

Well I am betting my food list ready for camp for foods to sneak in. I keep thinking its only two days, I can handle tuna for two days As for exercise ladies, I must get on the ball, I heard that can boost my weight loss into gear, although 4.5 for a week is not bad. So i will talk myself into using my Gazelle until I get home.

We have another dinner tonight! My DH's mother is moving to Kentucky and so its kinda so-long hate to see you go dinner. Another salad anyone?

Well I am completely tired, got home too late. I guess I shall finish that memo I need to file in court this morning.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Hey ladies I have another question????

I am trying to drop 20 by the end of June, is that too much to ask? I am already down 4.5 towards my goal of 20. I would like to do this before I get pregnant. Can you tell me if it is dangerous to do the induction longer than 14 days? and if so, How is it? I mean I feel wonderful!
Please let me know, I am a planner and need to plan these things, kinda afraid to add more carbs, lol although I have yet to have one day that I actually hit 20 grams

As long as your feel great, are taking suppliments, and eating what you are supposed to (not skipping salads and other important veggies) you can stay on induction as long as you want. The weight is harder to get off the closer to goal weight you are so since you didn't have too much to shed in the first place, it might be difficult to get to 140 by the end of June. Keep up the good work, tho!

well my goal is actually to get to 125-130 but I would settle for 140 right now! I mean that would be a good size during pregnancy and then move to my next goal afterwards!

Long time no see, everyone! Let's see, what's new and exciting. Nothing. Work is he!!, home is great, and I'm whining because I'm not independently wealthy! There are 4 jobs in our newspaper today, not good news for me getting another one soon, so I should just suck it up and stick with it. Miss Tommie is out of kindergarten and just as snooty as only a 5 year old can be. Birthday coming up soon, my baby is all grown up! Mama is doing well, the bf and I have worked things out and things in that area are going well also. Why am I so negative, I have a great life!

Hope you are all doing well, hugs to all who need one, and a swift kick if that's what you think you need. It's all going to get better someday. Goodnight!

Another late night check in. Just sent DH off to work and I'm on my way back to the Biology paper. (2 pages down, 6 more to go). Would you believe the question I agonized over wasn't even one of the ones assigned. Grrr! I wrote down the wrong number.

Vacation started 5 hours ago.

Sunday I leave for WV. I can't wait to see hills and mountains again. Unfortunately, I'm suppose to have the scrapbook done for my Grandparent's 50th Anniversary party, next Sunday. Well, all I have so far are some supplies and some pictures. Mostly pictures of my family. (Okay, mostly pictures of my stepson.) I really better get on the ball.

I'll check in before I go...
