GOOD MORNING!!!

Busy day yesterday, huh??

Everyone seems to be doing very well.

First of all.....

ALICIA...



Hope it's a good one!!!
And as for your oven, do you think you can call the manufacturer & complain?? Maybe they will replace it if it was defective?? Good luck, and hope you had a great dinner last night.

Joan, Narnia is a great movie, but I can see where the girls could get scared in parts...it does get a little intense. Hope you had a nice time with them last night!!

Danger, I saw Paula Deen make a cheesecake with ricotta & jello the other day...it sounds delish!!

Holli..I agree, you are one cute/crazy chica...but we love ya!!! Always look forward to reading your posts!!

Lisa...I DO have a Bon-Ton nearby...will def. check it out. Cadence already has the wig, my sis got it for her, and she loves it (esp. since she got about 8 inches cut off her hair!!). Thanks for the heads up!!

Okay, to everyone else, hope you have a great day. Cadence is begging me to get off here so she can play some games while I get her breakfast...I need another cup of coffee too. I'll check in later!!

Pam

Good morning everyone! I tried to post last night before I went off to te b-ball game but the darn thing kept kicking me out saying I wasn't logged in, but I was. I got a little honked off so I just logged out. I'm over it now. We're getting ready for all Gabes little buddies this afternoon, I'll have them from 1pm til the start of tonights b-ball game, WOO-HOO!!!! I made some whole wheat pumpkin muffins this morning and turkey sausage, so I'm starting off positive, what am I gonna do when that cake starts calling my name, Trish, Trish , I'm doomed.

I had alot I wanted to say to everyone last night but I've since given up on last nights post, so all I'll say right now is I hope everyone has a safe weekend and if I need you later I may jump on here in hopes of saving myself from refined sugar overload.

Dangergirl, I'm impressed, it takes a lot of strength to do what you did. I was with my first husband for almost 12 years, he was very abusive and controlling. I spent 9 of those years in fear, 2 suicidal and the last year I was a B----! I finally said thats it and let the chips fall where they may. So I know what its like and I'm so glad that you are in a good place now, Bless you.

Gotta Run! Trish

Happy Weekend everyone!

Not much to report here - busy all week of course but nothing planned for the weekend. We are still unpacking a few boxes that probably shouldn't have been packed to begin with lol. I've been on the flylady website for several weeks and that is helping me clear out all of our clutter!

I honestly did not have time to check out the other days postings but am glad to be back when I can :-)

Trish - I have never bought turkey sausage.. I was actually looking for turkey bacon the other day and could't seem to find it. Should it be with the regular bacons and sausages?

I hope everyone has a GREAT weekend and I'll continue trying to catch up.

Julia

Good morning!!!

My DH works today so it is just me and my little man. Right now he is watching Pinicchio and telling me about every scene. We are headed over to my mom's in a little bit. She has a stand at an antique mall so we are headed up to WY to look for stuff. It is fun to look.


Trish-DS and I are eating turkey sausage right now. I love it.

Julia-I like Jimmy Dean's and it is with the rest of the sausage.

Have a great day!!!

Jasmine

Hi ladies! Happy weekend to everyone!

Do you guys have any idea how hard it is to try to type quietly?? LOL My dd is in the next room sleeping and I'm trying not to wake her....this seems awfully loud so it may be a short post.

Wow, just read all the posts from yesterday. It was a riot! Was it a full moon last night, or what? You guys were crazy funny yesterday! We're becoming more and more like a "girl's night out" or just hanging out. I LOVE IT! I hate that I was unable to be here more yesterday to hang out. I think I missed you guys!

Well I bombed somewhat last night at supper. We went out for chinese and I ate and ate. Good news is I"m not hungry this morning. Don't know what it'll do to my loss for the week. I still think it's better than going to the catfish place, though. Although I've heard that chinese seems like it's good for you when in actuality it's not. Who knows. I'll just try for a better day today. When it all boils down to it, that's really all we can do right?

Well ladies, I have to cook for a spaghetti dinner that starts at noon....I have 2 1/2 hours. Better get movin'! I'll try to pop back in later today and check to see what hysterics are happening while I'm NOT getting to hang out with you guys!

Have a GREAT day....er, weekend everyone!!!

MOrnin' All!

Don't have much time right now, but wanted to say Good MOrning and HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALICIA!!!! :hb2:

See ya later!

Just have time to pop in and say HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALICIA!!!! Enjoy your outing today purchasing some cool new gems!

Hugs ~ Joan

Alicia, happy birthday!

I am not really awake. I wasn't tired last night ~ I got off at 11pm and then had to unwind. So I ended reading until 4:30 this morning. :sleep:

One of my girlfriends is coming over and I am going to try to get her mind off her troubles for a little while. She is the one that her husband held her and said that he didn't love her and wanted a divorce. I am taking her and her kids for pizza and then playing games with them.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Lisa

Just stopping by to say HAPY BIRTHDAY, ALICIA!!!

And to everyone else, I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

I think I get to go to a reunion concert tonight. It's a local Christian rock band that was popular around here when I was in high school... a bunch of my old buddies from school. I can't wait to see them!

Kegan is still sick and clingy as ever, so I can't really get into much right now. I am reading all the posts, as usual. I always feel so guilty because Ican't respond personally to everyone. We stay busy in here, huh? I love it!

Morning All,
Today is starting to be a better day, than yesterday. I was so tired last night that I fell asleep in bed reading a book with my glasses on. My dh came in and said Honey put your book down and take your glasses off. Then go back to sleep. I slept until I had to pee this morning around 7:30. Then I went right back to sleep until 9. So I got about 10 hours of sleep. My bender ball came in the mail this morning. So I am going to blow it up in a little bit and use it.
Happy Birthday Alicia! Enjoy your special day. Have fun shopping. You deserve it! Sounds like you had a nice time at the Outlet mall yesterday!
Holli, you can brighten up my day when I am having a bad day. Thanks for joining our group. You sure are a ray of sunshine. Hope you enjoy your weekend!
Pam sounds like Cadence keeps you hopping. So any big plans for the weekend?
Lisa hope you enjoyed sleeping in today. Loved your story about the binki's. That is true what the lady did say. I have one that I bought for motivation a couple years ago. But I don't think once I get done to my goal weight that I will ever wear one. So any big plans for today? Congrats on the promotion! Your working your way up the corp. ladder.
Diane, you are so true about the girls night out comment! I love coming here and chatting with everyone. It sure makes for a great support team. Plus you know that you are not being judged by anyone. You have a positive outlook on your plan for today. Hope your day goes well. Enjoy your spag. dinner. What is it for?
Lauren , glad that your mom is feeling better. That is great that she gets to come home this weekend. So any big plans for the weekend? Or just relaxing and visiting your mom?
Eskita (sorry on spelling if it is wrong), you asked where in Southern Ohio I lived at. Have you ever heard of Wellston,Ohio? That is where I live. I work in Vinton County. Yes I have heard of Ashland. It is only about an hour or hour and a half from me. Maybe we need to meet sometime. Everyone goes to Ashland to the mall from around here. Is it any good?
Hanna hope you are having a great weekend! You and your dh have been under a lot of stress here lately. Hope you enjoy your quilt show.
Trish I hope you don't give into the cake today. I know that you will be so busy today during the party that you won't even thinking about the cake. Enjoy your ds's birthday party!
Hi to everyone else. Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend! I am off to work out. Might try out my new bender ball. Then get ready for the day.
I will check back in with you all later.
Have a great day!
Take care,
Kerry

I'm doing a quick check back in....I'm addicted!

Kerry, the spaghetti lunch is being put on by a family whose 6 yr old son was burned over 53% of his body about a month and a half ago. He just got out of the hospital last weekend. He LOVES spaghetti, so this is his celebratory party for his recovery. Still has a way to go, but he's sooooo remarkably better now. His parents were burning trash in their yard and he got the gas can (they'd turned their backs for one second, of course) and went and poured the gas on the fire....it exploded, catching him on fire. He was running across the yard yelling, "Put me out! Put me out!" Luckily, his face only got two very small burns on it (they didn't even scar)...most severe burns were around where his waistband on his pants were....the waistband was elastic and it melted to him, making it impossible to get the pants off. Really, REALLY sad situation....has been a valuable lesson for my 9 year old (we call him our "pyromaniac").....he's not had so much of a fascination with fires since all this happened.

I ate something already, so am hoping not to eat much at the dinner. Ya just never know what kind of unhealthy things other folks put in their food....I'm getting to where I hate eating someone else's food.

Alrighty, GOTTA go start getting us ready to go. Have a GREAT day everyone!

Ladies, thank you so much!

Awww, and Lisa you touched my heart calling me cheesecake (my fav dessert) covered w/caramel and chocolate, oh my! Have a good day off girl and enjoy your day w/your friend and her kids.

Pam, I thought about calling for the oven but we bought it second hand. I may still try though.

Lauren, are you taking our miles today? If so I have 4. Thanks.

As for the cord, after I told DH he goes out to his work van and got another one. Sometimes it pays to have a Computer dude as a hubby.

Hope everyone has a SUPA DUPA weekend, lol.
Alicia

Checking in again...

Diana, hope your spag. lunch is good. So glad the little boy is doing well. What a scary thing to have happened...god bless his family!!

Lisa...what a great friend you are. Hope they enjoy their time with you (I know they will!!)

Kerry..sounds likeyou needed some sleep girl!! Good for you! Lets us know how you like the bender ball...

Hanna...lady, I certainly hope you take it easy this weekend!! So glad when I read you are doing things for YOU...enjoy the quilt show and your visit with family!

Joan...have fun at your parents. So nice of you to go to them. THis is another celebration for Brigid, right?? Hope she enjoys it!

Megan..sounds like you have a fun night planned!! Enjoy yourself, hope Keegan feels better...

Lauren...HEY GIRLIE!! Is your mom getting out this weekend?? Hope she is still improving. Have a nice weekend..BTW, 9 miles for me.

So, DH is going to his drummer's house to "jam" tonight, so the kids & I are gonna have a "High School Musical" marathon tonight, I think. Frankie is kind of not into it, but I think he'll like it once it's on. We haven't seen them yet, but have heard everyone loves them, so it should be a good night. Besides, I love musicals!!

Off to Michael's to pick up some supplies, then Target for face cream (trying to fight off the inevitable, lol), maybe I'll stop in this new store Blue Tulip. Anyone ever been there? It opened about two months ago, I've been wanting to check it out, so I think I will.

Will try to check in later.

Bye!!

Good Morning 30 sumthins!
I haven't checked in or read anything in SO long!! It's lovely to see some familiar names.
It's bloody cold today here in the frozen north. I've finally gotten a computer at home (I think I may be one of the last people in Canada to do so.) -so perhaps I'll be a tad more prudent with regards to my 3FC activity. Haha
I haven't made too many huge strides in my fitness or diet, but the fact I'm still movin never ceases to amaze me.
I actually climbed into my frozen car and made it to the gym today so this is good. Mind you I just ate an omelette big enough for two so I'm not sure if that negates the activity.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
Tam
