Hi girls. Thanks for all your words.
I was able to get a 30 minute nap in and then I just laid in the bed for another 30 minutes without anyone bothering me. Once I got up, I was better. Still am somewhat. I'm getting lunch made and haven't decided if we're going to buy groceries or not. It's really, really, really windy outside so I don't want to get the kids out if I don't have to.
Dh is on his way home after having to take care of his dad. His dad suffers from paranoia, grandma siezures and all kinds of things. For years he mixed drugs with alcohol with medication so he's all screwed up. He's never really been in our lives, living most of his years since i've been around in Oregon, but now he's here thinking he wants to straighten out his life and in doing so, he's making dh's miserable.
Anyways, I've got to feed these kids and thanks again to all of you.
Jill, you are a cutie. I love that blouse you were wearing.

Hi ladies, Just checking in! Got the trisciut issue solved AFTER they ripped it open, and then we had a glitter attack, well sydney did, so she was covered...she looked so funny. I wanted to take a pic, but she wouldn't let me! LOL I have been OP so far today, but no exercise yet, I am going to get in in when dd is napping. I need to up the water intake too

Crystal - Glad you are feeling better. I'm sorry to hear about dh's dad. I always tell myself that there is no such thing as a "normal" family. Everyone has a story of some sort, or a wacky situation. I hope that things are calm for you for the christmas weekend!

Roxy - you are too sweet, thanks for carign about little HAyley, she fought a long battle, and I am heartbroken, but she is cancer free now! My little angel warrior is having a little trouble getting her ANC counts back up where they should be, so please say a few prayers for her. They need to be up so she can restart her chemo.

Mel - Thanks for the thumbs up! It feels god to care abuot all that again! You are doing awesome too! Cyber hugs to you!

Okay ladies - time to get my rear into overdrive and get the following done.
1. clean out christmas gifts from the car
2. put all the christmas gifts away
3. fold laundry on bed
4. call about hotel job (I'll give more details later )
5. wrap presents for our friends that we will see tomorrow
6. syd nap - me tae-bo
7. lunch
8. shower at some point before work
9. work at 5pm

I am not sure what to fix for dinner, what are you all having ? okay, ttyl!

Ladies, TOM is coming I need you all to yell at me. I have eating a 1/4 of a pound cake. Thats gross! I'm so mad, but still want more. I think I should just go and throw it out! I mean really. THis darn tom is getting to me. I just want to eat all day. Breakfast was a bowl of cereal and lunch was a can of soup. That was ok, but the cake is NOT!!

Kristin, dinner tonight is left over pork on a torilla, with some cheese. BTW, I saw you lost a half of a pound. Good for you! This week, you'll lose more. I don't know, do we count half pounds for points? I think we should. I mean, not 1/4 or anything, but a half is a half. Exercise, I still think needs to be a full half hour, but weight is what we are here for. Still shows progress.

Crstal, glad you are feeling better. I think being tired you tend to be more short and feel angry sometimes. I know I do. If I don't sleep....beware! And I don't mean, a night or two with no sleep, it's usual constant sleep deprivation that gets to me.

Mel- let go of the cake!!! Do I have to come over there? Better yet...do I have to sic Michelle on you? There, that ought to whip you into shape! You are working too hard to sabotage yourself, darn it! Drink tumblers of water! Quick! Remember, how cool you will look in that new outfit if you win the BLC challenge. Give the cake to the babies with some milk for a snack, give the rest to the dog. I'll be back later to get personal with everyone in a while. For Pete's sake get that cake outta there!

Well, thanks Roxy. I ate the darn rest of it. I don't know what happened to me. I've already had 87oz of water thus far. I am stuffed now. I may not eat any dinner. Stupid fund raiser cake. I haven't had junk in a while. TOM and the Fundraiser....I curse you both!

ANyway, I'm over it now. Feel like a fat pig. But tomorrow is a BIG day at the gym, so I'll have to work even harder. Thanks though for your help..

Hey ladies I'm back!! I got all my shopping done except for the other half of my mom's present and stocking stuffers. Town was getting hectic and my debit card wasn't working since I forgot to deposit money this morning so that was it for me! LOL I went to the bank and have drank so much water today I almost peed my pants while I was in there! LMAO not that you all wanted to know that but I thought it was funny and that I would share lol!!

Thanks for all the compliments about my pic! Makes me feel really good. Oh and don't be fooled Roxy I had a strategically placed shirt and 3 inch boots on so it makes my legs look long and skinny, gotta love optical illusions!! LMAO We had a great time last night, good food (ate too much) and Ron got employee of the year!! I was so proud of him but he was super embarrassed, he's not one for attention so I have been bragging about him all day! LOL

Crystal Oh the final days of pregnancy, I'm sorry! Glad you got a nap in and are in a better mood now, It would be hard to be in a bad mood, pregnant and have 3 kids at home! LOL Anyway so glad you are enjoying your van, it's nice to have nice things that make things easier, makes all the difference sometimes.

Roxy too funny about your spiderman!! That's too cute, I can't wait for Bayley to start playing pretend, I think its so cute!! And believe me I know about grabby babies at the computer, Bayley drives me crazy when she is in here with me!! Hope your day is going well, hows your weight loss plan working for you? I don't think I've read much about it lately.

MEL!!!!!! NO CAKE!!!! Well I guess it's too late for that. Put it behind you though cuz worrying about it will just get you down and might lead to more bad eating. See that's the exact reason that I try to be lax on the weekend cuz it helps me stay on track during the week knowing I can have something sort of bad but I just have to wait till the weekend, then sometimes by then I don't want it anymore and being really good for 5 days and not so good for 2 still give me results, you know? Anyway work your butt off tomorrow!!

Hi Kris!! How are you! I hope you had a great day yesterday, I really want to chat tonight! I've missed you! Too funny about the glitter and syd not wanting her pic taken! LOL Have you exercised yet?

Hi Michelle have you heard anything about your classes yet? I mean what are they about? Glad you have the day off! I bet you are loving it! I don't have Hunter anymore so I am psyched about that, just me and Bayley the rest of the day, should be nice.

Hi Jaymi, how is the TOM doing today?

Hey Penny what did the boys get? Too fun, I love giftcards!

Allright ladies, need to post pics and check in on the MLW site, give Bayley a bath and try to clean up around here! I'll TTYL

Jill, I'm in the same boat with the water today. At 100 oz already! Ughhh!

Ok, I just had to enter all my disgusting calories. I'm still under for the day. I guess because all I ate was Soup and Cereal otherwise. Gotta love that soup! Few calories and lots of vities! I feel a tad better now. Of course, It's a reality check for me. I won't do that again. Thanks for the support ladies!

Just thought you'd all like to see this...

Here I am...headache and all. I'm having terrible sinus problems today and I think I'm experiencing a tension headache. I haven't been having a good day today either. A fight with dh, a fight with a bill collector, and a long day at work.

Way to go to all you ladies.

Jill-your pic looks awesome. I wish I were that skinny. It would make my day.

Well I really really don't feel like posting much. I just want to lay down and take some of the throbbing away. Talk to you all later.

Chris I hope you feel better, sorry you had such a rotten day. Good job on the exercise though, there's one good thing right? Tomorrow is a new day!

Ok we just got baked boneless pork chops, steamed broccoli and scalloped potatos, it was good and filling so I feel pretty good about it. I have also had 64 oz of water so I'm on my 3rd 32 oz bottle, I can get it done no prob, it's only 6:15 here so I can do it!

Ok just wanted to say hi! Hope you all are having good nights! It's not really cold here so I'm thinking no white Christmas I'm jealous of you all with snow! It was 55 here today, send some snow my way won't ya?!!!! TTYL

Afternoon, Hi, Howdy Ho,

How is everyone doing?

I am doing great! Felt good to get to the gym today!

Chris,
I am sooo sorry you aren't feeling well and having a bad day! Let me know if there is anything I can do! HUGS to yoU!

Mel,
Just pick up and keep going! You are doing so awesome right now!
Just think about how much you have accomplished and how much that pound cake will cost you in exercise!

Jilly Bean,
Congrats to Ron on the EMPLOYEE OF THE YEAR!!!! That is awesome! I would have been proud too! And you had a beautiful pic girlie!

Roxy,
How are you doing girl? Get on Melissa's butt!

Kristen,
How'dcha do on the list today?? Get you get it all done?

Crystal,
Hope you are feeling better... Did you get your groceries done?

Michelle,
How was your new classes???

I am pooped tonight..... Off to bed early! TTYL!


Jaymi,
Congrats on the exercise!

Hi all,
Penny-I took 3 advil so hopefully this disappears. I did some weight-lifting with my arms while watching the swan. I felt guilty about just sitting there. I am getting so sad...I'm actually feeling guilty about NOT moving. Is that insane or what?

Jill-Thanks for your "get well" wishes. I absolutely hate headaches. Little Bayley is sooo cute. I wish my girls had her hair.

I'll check back after a while. It all depends on if dh is still working or not. He feels like I'm neglecting him and the kids, I guess. I don't see it, but if he feels that way, I guess he has a valid point. I just don't think he understands how important it is to me to lose this weight and feel normal..and pretty. Some days, I'm even embarrassed for him to see me, let alone other people. I have a hard time feeling anything but contempt towards my body. Plus I haven't had a change in hair in God knows how many years and I'd LOVE to go shopping for NEW clothes. Clothes that look good and not sloppy, or granny like.
NO MORE GRANNY PANTIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BAN THE BIG BRAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Someone find me a cute hairstyle...Please?????
~Chris
