Cherie forgot to say four miles!!!! Wow you are doing wonderful. I am glad you are eating healthy to keep up with yourself .

One more thing and then I will stop babbling....Kempy we are almost out of that seasoning?? Are we eating to much of it ?? I am glad our grocer carries it. Have a great day and hope to catch up with you soon .

Oh girls oh girls....my dad stopped by to see me and the kids and he is one of the best bakers in the world (along with Angie and my dh ) he brought over a homemade almond cheesecake with strawberry topping and homemade chocolate chunk cookies, UGHHHH!!!! I have not given in and had anything though. I froze the cheesecake. I just talked to him on the phone and he asked if I had tried it yet, and I said no and he is like have a piece, NO WAY it is 8:00, haha....I know he means well. Well off to watch AI....
Fingers crossed Noelle about Mikalah!! Bye for now Ladies.

YUM Julie.... that sounds great!!!!!! I'll take it.

I did my four miles.... I feel good about that.... but then I had dinner.... and I know I didn't eat that much, but it feels like it's sitting at the bottom of my stomach not going anywhere. Ick.... it was the Hamburger Helper Crunchy Taco with black beans. The girls love it and will eat their whole bowl.... right now, it just feels like the chili... heavy.

OK... time to watch some basketball, or time to go to bed ... haven't decided!


Everyone, have a great Good Friday tomorrow. I'll be working.... but I do have Easter Monday off. Night everyone!

Cherie

Good Night Cherie, I wish I could run the desserts over and get them out of here, dh wanted some but I said not for me!! I know what you mean about food and it just sitting there. I have constant indegestion, even if I eat healthy?? Bring on some TUM's. You should feel good about the treadmill work. Great job. I wish I could excercise that much. I could but just don't , I am working on it though. Twenty minutes here and there, it all counts and adds up!! Good Night Everyone. TGIF

Good Friday Everyone! I'm here at work. Hopefully it won't be too bad of a working day.

I went to bed last night instead of watching basketball. Good thing too... the last Oklahoma team lost in the final minute of the game. Oh well....

Well, I weight exactly the same as I did last Friday. I guess my body used this week to catch up from last week of being sick. I'm not going to let it get me down, however, instead of the 9 pounds I thought I lost, I am only at 8. This afternoon... I'll be doing 4 more miles on the treadmill.

Well.. back to work here... payroll comes in today and I need to check it. Talk to you all soon!

Cherie

Good Afternoon! I'm still at work... but on have two more hours to go.. then I am off to the grocery store for some last minute weekend things... Tonight is my splurge night, I'm making nachos. I guess I can't really say it's splurge, I am still staying within my calorie limit, but it just taste so good, so... it's my splurge! I decided that I would make some sort of dinner on Sunday for the girls and I. I have pork chops in the freezer.. and I figured I would make me some potato salad and the girls some candied sweet potatoes and we would all be happy!

I hope everyone is having a great day... I am so ready for my weekend.... I think I am going to stop and rent a few movies too... I want to see the newest Bridget Jone's... and I may break down and get Passion of Christ movie too, since it is Easter. We are supposed to have rain all weekend, but hopefully, there will be some nice times to get out with the girls.

OK.. talk to everyone later..... Have a great afternoon!

Cherie

Good Afternoon Girls

Cherie your Easter dinner sounds nice. I love sweet potatoes, and your splurge dinner tonight sounds wonderful. I can almost taste them. I hope it does not rain all weekend for you and the girls. Have a great rest of the day.

Well I will check back later on. So far today I have been OP. Dh wants salmon for dinner. I don't know if I really feel like it. Oh well its healthier than fish sticks....

Btw forgot to mention, Noelle I bet you are just so happy Mikalah is GONE.
How is you little niece working out? Is she your little secretary? I forgot to say I would pay her with a movie gift certificate and a big chocolate bunny....I guess I don't know what twelve years want .
Hope everyone is doing well.

Happy Easter!!! I hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine has been nonstop. I got to the bakery bright and early this morning aND COOKED UNTIL 4:30 THIS AFTERNOON. nOW WE HAVE TO COOK ALL THE DONUTS SO IT WILL BE A LONG NIGHT. i JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE i SAID HI TO EVERYONE SINCE i WILL BE SO BUSY FROM NOW ON.

lUV YA ALL!!!

Ps: we went to the funeral home yesterday to look at it. It was so nice. I could see it all fixed up. It had built ins in all the bedrooms and a winding staircase. It had the original french doors to every single room with glass panes in them all. I saw the rooms he did his work from but I think it was actually a wrap around porch that they closed in. I bet the original porch is behind the paneling. I would love to find out. The guy actually just picked up and left the realtor said. When the bank forclosed on it she went into change everything over and he had left urns with peoples remains in them at the house. She hasnt heard from anyone looking for them either.

Happy Easter everyone Just winding down from an awesome get together. I ate a little too much chocolate easter treats but drank loads of water too. Rick made the most delicious lemon-grass marinade pork chops on the grill and we had angel food cake w/fresh strawberries and whip cream (cool whip lite). I'm not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow but I'm having my niece come in with me so that'll take a load off. She couldn't come in last week as she was on the tail-end of a cold, one that seems to have been passed around in my house

Angie, congratulations and good luck on your grand opening tomorrow!!! I'm so happy, excited and proud of y'all. I know you guys'll do great. That house sounds so spacious and I can imagine the possibilities of it all. So what is the realtor doing w/the ashes? It's kinda strange that no one is coming forward to claim them, I mean, if they bothered to have them cremated at all...

Julie, you know I didn't actually get to watch that episode of AI when Mickles got booted, but I did see the recaps. Now I can take the earplugs out I don't know who I'm rooting for anymore, the contest seems kind of lopsided at times. Did you guys make an easter egg hunt for the kiddos?

Well, got lots of cleaning up to do still, just wanted to wish everyone a blessed easter and good night.

Hi Girls

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Sunday.

Noelle Rick sounds like a gourmet cook. I am glad your niece is going to be helping you out this week. I bet you guys are always so busy after a holiday.
Yup the kiddos had an Easter egg hunt at one of their Grandmas. They got tons of chocolate. I can't wait to get rid of it. Dh is taking some to work.
They even got brownies and cupcakes!! So much chocolate!!

Angie I am so excited to hear about your first day today. I hope everything is going to go smoothly today and you get some customers. Good luck girl!!
That house sounds like it has alot of old world charm. I can't believe someone would not claim their loved ones ashes??

Cherie did you have a nice dinner with your girls yesterday? I was bummed I didn't get my candied sweet potates this year, haha. I made up for it though eating other things. Had some chocolate and mom made a bunny cake with coconut. But it is back to the grind today.

Well girls I will check back later. Hi everyone else. Have a good one.

Cherie btw, I had a chance to check out that Calorieking site. It is a really neat one. I would like to look at it a little more today if I have some time. Thanks for mentioning it, I forgot about it.

Hi!

I was wondering if I could join you girls. You sound like a bunch of great girls. My name is Gina. I live near the ocean in Connecticut. I have 4 children, ages 2 through 10. I am a very busy mom. Work part-time at a law office and sometimes on the weekends I help out my brother with his restaurant -- espcecially in the summer months when the tourists arrive. I need to loose about 20 pounds and have just jointed Weight Watchers. Hopefully, I can stick to the program.

I hope you don't mind my "barging" in on your group, but just need some support and thought you guys might be great to "hang out" with.
