I'm here. I'm trying to get my Freecell score back up to 77 %. As you can see, I have time on your hands.
I got your pics, Ruthie. Your sewing room... You're not perfect after all!

I mean, "time on MY hands". No wonder I keep losing. I'm brain dead.

Hey! My Girls think I'm perfect! I'll send you a picture when I get it tidied up - if I am still alive by then!

Happy Valentin's Day To All My Lil Chickie's On The Beach

Hello all. Finally a chatty day. I miss all the chattin back n forth. I was so tired this morning and fell asleep on the couch watching t.v. and did not wake up until 11:30. OMG!!!! Well maybe I'm resting up for the big week-end! Both of our dear children will be gone til Sunday. Makes me want to shout! Come on Now! Ok so I'm a lil excited! It has been a long time since we have spent much time together because of all the working on the rental house. It's only been 5 months. I'm sure we will enjoy just bein together without anything to do!

Has anyone seen those new shakes called Carb Options? It has no trans fat 6 carbs and 1g of sugar. It looks ok to me but I'm still not real hip on alot of the hidden junk. Any info any of you chickies might have would be helpful. I'm not big on breakfast in the morning so I am tryin to find a shake. I love breakfast but not til about 11 or 12 and then it is lunch time and I usually skip that and eat supper. But I am really trying to eat 3 times a day now.

Hello to everyone. Ruth, Elleis, January, justjodi, 2bfit1, crystal, ms24gal, Clovey and anyone else I missed. It's great to see you all posting! We should not wait until Friday to post like this! Let's all tell ourselves... I Must Post More!!!!

I hope we all have a great V-Day week-end.

Oh and Ruth I hate it when men act that way! It really just gets under my skin! But you know what I love is when I am right and you know they know even if they don't say it!

My smilies are not workin for some reason!

Today is a late start for me. I woke up in time to take my temperature this morning (I'm doing the basal temperature tracking thingy), and then I went back to sleep. Last night I did water cardio at my gym and the chlorine from pools always makes me really sleepy. That and DH and I were up later then normal doing a different kind of exercise. Granted it wasn't 2 hours, but it was a good 30 min!
2BFIT1- I did the same things when my mom passed away. I couldn't wear her clothes because I was only 11 but I kept some of her things that reminded me of her close by for a very long time.
MS24GAL- I always give my DH 2 cards on Valentines Day. I give him a funny one in the morning and the serious one at night. Here's the funny one:

Outside: I know you do a lot for me, go out of your way for me and do whatever you can to make me happy and since its Valentines Day, I just wanted to say-

Inside: I'M WORTH IT!

He'll like it! Well, it's time for me to get ready to go to the gym. Talk to you all later.

Hi Gang Happy Friday, Early Valentine’s Day, Presidents Day etc…
I have been AWOL with good reason. Taking care of children is EXZHAUSTING!!! My 6 year old nephew has been living with us and honestly I don’t know how you gals with kids do it!! My hats off to ya!

It seems my SIL has decided this whole wife - mother thing is over – rated and doesn’t want to do it anymore. Can you imagine? So we have taken in J so that maybe they can sort things out alone. On top of everything else my brother is in the middle of treatment for prostrate cancer. The child is an absolute joy and between the 3 adults we have in my house its not really that much different with a little boy in the house….yeah right

Hugs to you all! Must go, as my little bundle will be home soon and I think today is karate day or some such nonsense. Please forgive me for not mentioning everyone by name, but these days I am having trouble with my own

Hey Ruth it was unchecked and was not working so I checked it and it still did not work but i went back and unchecked it again and it works! Wheh alot of checkin goin on! Thanks for the tip your always on the money!

SFlake how sweet of you to take in your nephew. I'll keep you all in my prayers and hope everything works out soon. I have missed your post good to see one if only for a minute!

Oh, Sflake... that poor little boy. Thank God he's got you. I'll be saying prayers for you and your brother and your nephew, and... and... everyone!
Geez. That just breaks my heart.

Hi Everyone: You are right, You've gotta Have Heart came from Damn Yankees. I think that the baseball players sang it led by Shoeless Joe. I really should remember it better, since that was one of the productions I did eons ago with my H.S,. Choir.

Ellis: I hope all this snow is gone, but the time I get up to the St. Lawrence in June.: We are going to make the trip once again. And I am not looking forward to that long drive.

Ruth: A foot massage sounds wonderful. You sound like cabin fever is taking over, with so much winter. You did well with your better choice. My numbers are not moving down either. Just stuck there. It is easy to get discouraged sometimes, and just say to ---- with it. But I haven't done it yet. Just plugging along.

I'll have a challenge the end of the month, since our Norwegian family will be coming for a visit. When we were there, it seems like all we did was eat. So what to do? I hope they are going to want to do the attractions part of the time.

S-flake: You certainly are a busy lady. How fortunate your little nephew is to have you. It has to be a tough message for a kid to take in.

Have a 'lovey' Valentines Day everyone. Lizzie

Lizzie! Norwegians like to eat Reindeer the whole time, with lingonberries. There is no other dietry option. Oh, well I suppose herring might work. But reindeer is wonderful. I had some in Sweden when I went there.

(making the most of the love heart here)
(I like this one)
(I have never entirely understood this one).

xx

Lizzie, we'll try to get it melted by the time you come up.

Why is everyone online? Shouldn't we all have hot dates? Or something? DH is downstairs on the drums. DD is at a friends. DS is watching a movie. And I have a hot date with my computer.

january~~Does this student want to do research regarding the SBD or the fact that your DH/DBF can provide 2 hrs of "exercise" ??????? Be careful with strangers.
Happy Valentines Day to all you South Beach Beauties
P.S. Tomorrow is also my 12th anniversary

12th anniversary!! Don't you have a 20 year old son!? heh heh heh.
Have a wonderful day with your sweet DH.

Ellis~~My son is 29 and was from my first marriage.
