WUUUUZ UUUUP CHICKAS AND MENSTAS?
Yeah, I know I'm late today. I cannot BELIEVE it's 7pm already! Feels like it should be 4! I think they screw us and the planet somehow takes an additional 1/2 hour every Daylight Savings jumping forward time. Either that or Leap Year is to blame. Either way I can't get used to this crap. Well, I take that back...IF it was nice and warm and Spring-like outside I'd adore the light right now. Anywho....
Ok, so today I've been cleaning dust bunnies from under my bed w/a Swiffer thangie and sweeping the floors/carpet & tile, cleaned the bathroom, washed dishes, did laundry...I even broke out the Old English to shine up and condition my inner doors (they are the original doors from back in 1950 complete w/glass doorknobs...pretty cool when they're cleaned). OH! I also went and sold about 40 dvds/vhs movies and then bought some h.b. (personal hygiene/hair care crap) stuff @ Walgreen's. So, at least I was semi-productive.
For those of you that have known me for awhile this will come as no surprise...and will even make you giggle.
TODAY I ATE A BACONATER FROM WENDY'S!!! That monster was tasty too! I really don't feel guilty about consuming 4 days worth of fat grams in one sitting either.
Ok....so like a sign from the big guy upstairs or my guardian angels or whom/whatever....I got a flyer in the mail today about a special offer for a membership to a gym I've never been in. I went online and it's actually nicer than my gym w/a better floor plan. The deal is they wave the initiation fee and you get March, April and May free. The downside is that you have to join for 2 years. The gym has been around for well over 20 years, so it's not in danger of going under and it's got a tanner in there too. Awesome.
My current gym is affiliated w/a local hospital so it has TONS of senior citizens in there all the time and a lot of people doing physical therapy. AND, the weight lifting equipment is all crowded in one small area. The track is actually on the second floor above the basketball courts. Basically the floorplan is bizarre. There is nothing wrong with that....but it's not lending itself well to a motivational atmosphere for me...especially since I want to compete again in October. I'm going in tomorrow morning for a tour and am actually jazzed about it. It's kinda far from my house, but not any more so than my current gym. Now, it IS going to be $13 per month more and I'm trying to scrape and save everywhere I can..... BUT, my agent is switching my company for my home and car insurance and my car insurance is going down $40 PER MONTH!!!! So I think this will be worth it 'cause if I like the place, I'll GO. If I GO, I'll break out of this funk I'm in and will start shedding this extra 15 pounds I need to drop before diet-down.
I know...blah, blah, blah...Melinda shut your piehole. I hear ya.
Hanners: I'm sorry today is going rough w/the kiddo. I keep telling you, you're a saint. But, that little guy loves and appreciates you so much deep down inside...he just can't always express that. Regardless, I just know his little heart feels it 500x more than anyone w/fewer challenges! Just remember you're doing good and we all love you for all that you are.
Pam & Lisa: Thanks sooo much for your words of support re: finding a 2nd job. So far it's not panning out (LOL) but I appreciate it nonetheless! Maybe @ the new gym I'll meet a shuga daddie!
The funny thing is, one of my friends (from "over there") saw my status one day as "Needing a 2nd Job or a Shuga Daddie," so she sends me this link. It's literally a dating website promoting hook ups between shuga mommas and shuga daddies. LOL
Lauren: Oh you sexxxy seductress you!
Will you be "dropping" strategically placed bbq sauce @ dinner tonight? YEEHAW!!!! You go girl! Meow......
Duck: You kill me girl! Too funny! Enjoy your munchin' freebie day too! Watch out for those baconaters...those things'll get ya everytime! LOL
Hi Alicia, GGers, Joan, Christina, Sheila, Karen K., Vicki, Rooster Schmmoooster, BJ and all the rest of our GANG!
Ok, I'm a tool. I watched Shrek I and II for the FIRST time last night and this morning. I know, I'm a moran. I have to say, though....I didn't like Cameron Diaz AT ALL as Fiona. Not @ all. Can't think of who I'd like better, but she bugged the crap out of me. Maybe Drew Barrymore or something. I don't know. Anyway, off to vacuum (does that have 2 u's or 2 c's or both in it...I can never remember), fold clothes and watch Law & Order reruns.
Love ya, MO
