Morning. Big yawn from me this morning--I can barely sleep these days. Blech. Last night was especially bad because I'd had a nap in the afternoon. I almost cried when I woke up and saw it was only 12:30. Staring at my finger this morning because I've had to take off my too-tight engagement ring. Wahhhh. Luckily my band is a little bigger so maybe it will survive until childbirth!
Autumn, I hope you have lots of energy for your overseas trip!! We went on a cruise when I was 15 weeks that we'd had planned before we knew about baby. Mostly I was fine except didn't know how much more sensitive your skin is and got burned to a crisp!
Kim, What Bible study are they doing? You know I have to know and give my sage advice if I worked on it!! I am leading Stepping Up by Beth Moore right now and really loving it. It is only 6 weeks though--I was afraid of giving birth before I finished it!
Laurie--Mmmm shortcake. I confess I have been a sweets-a-holic lately. This week at the store I tried to switch to yogurt and apples for snacks...hoping that will help ease the transition back to SBD!!
Ruth--Sorry to hear about Hershey. It's so sad when the pup is sick.
Ugh! My butt is dragging today! Five U-haul loads and my entire weekend later the SIL is moved, I have no clue where she is going to put everything but it is no longer my problem, is that wrong of me to say that?
So between crappy eating, not enough water, "things" not moving like they should and TOM arriving today my weight is the highest its been in a year. I know it's only temporary but darn is it scary to see the scales up there after a year!
Cottage enjoy the bike ride!
Cat saying prayers that Ike stays away!
Autumn Your trip sounds amazing you have got to be excited!
Nessa here is to a productive day!
Loriann still sending good vibes your way for your job situation.
Twynn glad to hear the bug was atleast nice to you.
Ruth to you and Hershey!
Kim sending good vibes your way for onederland!
Beach oh sailing! Wish that was me again!
Lisa here's hoping your Monday goes by quick!
Belle & HC Morning Ladies
Me not much on tap today, I do have a meeting with the Volleyball coach and the AD at 3:30 today, lets hope this helps to resolve some of the problems.
OK, I should make a confession here! Yesterday after walking the dog I wanted ice cream so went down to the local shop, they were closed! (good thing) so I picked up my son and took him to a restaraunt. We shared a fish FRY... sigh. I ate just a little of the top, but gave the rest to the dog (the skin that is.) and I did enjoy the sweet potato fries (gave most mine to ds, but I did have four or five!). topped it off with a nice fresh side salad. (um, blue cheese set off anything good with that dish!).
hhmmmmm a 20 meal even after we shared the same meal! my how expensive things are these days!
Jessie: It's Living Beyond Yourself by Beth Moore. Any info on that one? My mom said that she's heard it's excellent, but hasn't done it yet.
Lisa: You whine all you want to. That's what we're here for; to listen to all of your whining! Have a good day in spite of the wet weather and get some rest.
GonnaBe: How was House Bunny? I see previews and still have no clue what it could possibly be about! Hope you have a great day!
, Zeff, hmac, and Belle Mer! Hope you have a good one.
Stephanie: Maybe the numbers being up on the scale are a result of you gaining so much muscle from all the moving? Maybe? Well, either way, it's great your SIL got moved in only one weekend. I hope you have a nice, relaxing week ahead.
Laurie: I have to admit that I'm very jealous of you today! First, a romantic dinner with DH, then an afternoon of sailing and finally, a book-club meeting! Sounds like a wonderful time to me. Enjoy your day!
Kim, I haven't done Living Beyond Yourself but I have listened to the audio from the DVDs and I know the teaching is wonderful. The workbook is one of her earliest but they taped the DVDs like 10 years later so it's "new" Beth, LOL. I am sure you'd benefit from it, but it is a huge committment to do all that homework for a 10-week study! We don't let *anyone* else do 10 weeks except Beth. And I think even she is moving away from it. People don't want to make that kind of time committment anymore.
just popping in to let all the Food Lion shoppers know that there is a buy 6 get the 7th gallon of milk free from now until Dec. 20. Just save your milk coupons that you get with each transaction and turn in 6 to get a free gallon.

Thanks for the info. I think I just jumped to the other side of the fence. While I'd love to do the study, I don't think I can commit. Next week I'll be in Austin for another certification course and will be in class all day and studying all night. Not a good way to start a study. We'll start up another one in the Spring, so maybe I'll join in then!
Just Popping in superfast
to say DOWN 2!! no cravings and heading to Ph 2 with counting points/calories
hi to everyone will be back later when NOT in the Monday pileup!
Kierie
might have a bit of good info - DH received an offer to teach two dual enrollment classes at a local highschool (2 teachers, one highschool, one college - one class).
I want to get excited, but with him being let down at every turn this fall...I just can't. Let's cross our fingers though...it would really help out with the budget, especially with the new baby.
