Not a very creative title......be back to post.

Morning All.

Hope everyone enjoyed their long weekend. I had 2 days in a row off and enjoyed them a lot!

Sunday I went furniture shopping with CB's sister's and mom. His mom criticized everything I expressed an interest in. Ugh! Found a few pieces that I really like but of course not the one (kitchen hutch) that I actually need.

Yesterday was rainy and flooding here. The retention pond out back my house was halfway up my back yard and the street was river like. Couldn't stand to be cooped up though so we spent the day organizing the garage. It looks wonderful and now we can park both cars in there again.

Job 2 schedule is better this week. Only 10 hrs. Yeah! I have WI tonight. No idea what to expect but am hoping for a loss because the pants-o-meter is not as tight as it was last week.

That's all for me for now.....

Heya all,

I am in a good mood, my finances are finally in order (yah!) and although I still have some debt it's very managable and I should be out of debt next year. There will be some scrimping and saving on my part, but overall I am doing okay. Thank god my credit history is good

Anyhoo, I am wondering if any of you gals are football widows?

Laura: I hope the flooding subsides for you soon!

Take Care!

Hey all, I had 4 days off and not really in the mood to be back at work. The attitudes are sucky, but I am just ignoring it.

On Friday Hubby and I decided to do do WW at home. I needed something more than I was doing. So I am doing it at home with the new flex points. Trying to make it work the best I can. I Guess anything is better than what I was doing. And for the time being this is it. So I made it through the weekend with my flex points.

I am going Sunday to Saturday and so far so good. I like the flex points thing and knowing I have to just in case. I also like have exercise points to use. Hubby hated the previous program, but he is more comfortable this time because he doesn't feel as deprived. Tho I have to figure his points out for him and what he has left. At least he is doing it with me. I need a cheerleader right now.

We went to the Zoo on Saturday.... anybody hear about the Harley Davidson 100th Anniv. ralley in Milwaukee, WI this last week. WOW is all I can say. I have never seen so many bikes. They said 15,000 were there. Traffic was nuts and a bunch of the bikers were driving like nutso's. Yesterday we had a picnic in the park. That was my weekend. The rest we just bummed it. I liked having my kids for a long weekend, but Emma was very sad to go back to daycare this morning.

Morning all

Just got a couple minutes to post, then it's back to work, always crazy after a long weekend...

Weighed in yesterday for my Labor Day goal - only .5 above what my goal was! Yeah! Also went shopping on Saturday and the pants-o-meter is working great, bought a couple size 11 skirts on sale (only a little tight!). The rest of the weekend was extremely relaxing, glad to finally get a few days off!

Kim - I had to work yesterday too, it was incredibly slow which I didn't mind but the time dragged by...

Laura - it's raining here too, all nasty and wet out. Enjoy your "easy" week with only 10 hours on job 2!

Ali - Football widows?

Hi Jen Hi Humber

Hope everyone's week goes by superfast!

Angie: football widows are the significant other of a person who enjoys watching tons of football on TV.

Take care!

Hey all,

Sounds like you all had a great long weekend. Mine had its ups & downs. The mineral spa was great but our car broke down on the way back to the city. It was not fun. THe garage where we take it says they can't get to it until Thursday We did have a good visit with our friend from out of town. We finally got to meet his fiancee. My other company left yesterday. We had people over to watch the CFL Labour Day classic but it wasn't very fun b/c our team played like crap & got their butts kicked I have been having trouble sleeping again. Hopefully I can get back to normal soon. My meeting was cancelled last night d/t holiday & without a car I'm not sure if I'll make it to a different WI this week. I am enjoying the flex points though. It is much more managable.

Ali, I'm a baseball widow. Really I could be a widow to pretty much all sparts but I like to watch most of them with DH. However try as I might I just can't get into baseball. Glad to hear you're getting your financial world in order. Mine is crashing down right now. Once we get our car back I'm going to try to get a second job.

Laura, good luck at WI. Glad to hear you have a lighter schedule this week.

Jen, glad to hear your hubby is going to help you out! I find it makes such a difference.

Humber, renewed committment is always a good thing.

Angie, congrats on getting your Labour Day goal. I didn't do as well on mine as I had hoped. What's your next goal?

Hope you all have a great OP day!

Ali - thanks! I was starting to get confused!

Rina - hmmm new goals... would anyone want to join a new challenge? Basically the same way we did it before but with a new ending date... Halloween? What's the next big one coming up?

Sounds good. Go ahead & start the thread for it. That gives us almost nine weeks.

Rina: yah, even though my finances are in order, I haven't fixed my car yet, I know what it will roughly come to though... I figure fixing it though will be cheaper than buying a new one... Luckily I have kind of factored it in!

Take care!

Ali

Quick hi ... writing about a woman hit by a train this morning ... yes, I saw the blood and guts on the front of the train. Not at all pretty.

Ali: I'm kind of a football widow. DH loves the Washington Redskins and likes to watch the Sunday games. Sometimes we go to a sports bar and watch the game so we can eat lunch, which is actually kind of fun. He gets annoyed watching sports with me because he says I ask too many questions. I like sports (was a soccer player in high school), and I know the games, but I figured having him around finally gives me the opportunity to ask all the little rule questions!

Hi to everyone ... must run and write this story.
