it's starting out soggy, but the sun will be out for the rest of the weekend!
We're getting ready to go out for breakfast, then I have a big grocery shopping to do. I'll have Carley all next week, so I want to stock up on healthy kid-friendly foods plus some extra "grandma" treats. She knows Jake keeps his "drumstick cones" in the freezer, so we have to stock up on those for her!
I'm going to go to ACMoore to pick up the supplies I'll need to make those adorable Fireworks t-shirts that Kiko suggested, too. I know the girls will have fun making them!
Supper today will be Salmon Kabobs for me, I saw them pre-made at Wegman's, and they looked delicious. I'll get some Steak Kabobs for Jake to enjoy, with baked sweet potatoes.
It's a special weekend all right! I'm not sure if it'll be a fun one or not but I'll do my best to make it fun!
"Woodstock Delta" is looking good. We have a stage, lights, food booths, port-a-potties and a beer tent! Do we need more than that? Delta should be a safe spot this weekend as we have every cop from the area working here! I sure hope this goes off without an "incident". Doing The Vagina Monologues was a heck of a lot more fun. I don't even get to be on stage this time.
The Girls and I are planning a bit of quality time this morning. I'll be getting strawberries into the freezer and they'll be waiting to grab any that I drop. I don't go to work the Festival until noon and will be coming back here late afternoon for their feeding time. If possible, I will NOT be there tonight as I'm really not keen on hordes of drunken country music fans. Anyhow I'll be able to hear the whole show from my back deck.
If I'm never back here, you'll know I fell in love and became a roadie! Or is it a groupie?
Cottage and Ruth Morning to two of my favorite chicks!
We are racing out the door to Abigail's tball game, which I am pretty sure is going to wind up cancelled. Theur website hasn't been updated yet, so I don't really know. If so, we will get our errands run early.
More later..... hoping from a serious visit from the WHOOSH FAIRY tonight.... my weight hasn't budged in a few days and I have been doing well.
Hello Cottage ,Ruth and Kiko! ( And Hello in advance to everybody who hasn't checked in yet!) Today has been one of the days where the skies looked like they were going to open up and downpour all day...It just spitted a few times. We'll probably have a good rain during the night.
Well I'm finishing up day 6 of phase 1, I just did an unofficial peek at the scales (Monday Morning is my weigh day). It's Saturday night and I've lost 6lbs! I'm sure a lot of it is water but still...I'm like wow!
Anyways, I have company coming for dinner shortly, so need to cut this short.
Have a beachy day!

Yippee for the Weekend and Drunken Delta boys whoopin it up !!!
Indigal: WOW !!!!!!! that is AWESOME!!!! for the loss and stickin with it!
Cottage: Sounds like a full day planned! "grandma treats" are the best kind! I remember in the days of yore, only at grandmas did I ever get Dutch Cocoa cookies... with a cold glass of milk.. My mom was a health Nut before it was even fashionable..and the only "cookie" allowed were these horrid smooshed prunes between some cardboardy tasting "cookie" ... Bleah...
Ruth: YEEEEHAAAAAA! Running off with a studly Roadie you minx you! Sounds like the Delta will be in full swing with you in the middle of it! Have fun !
Kiko: Those teeshirts are adorable!!! What a great craft to do with your girliegirls! I shall offer up a RingDing at the weight altar that the Whoosh Fairy visits!
Today DH and I are off to the stores..we both need new sneakers, and he wants to look at some sport monitor thingamabob. Tonight is London Broil or Flank Steak..I guess is the other name fer it...
I was soooo out of it this morning, that when I got dressed to go out for a paper, and my "saturday treat" (a large Americano Cawfee) I put my bra over my nightgown heeeeeeeheeeeeeeee I had to laugh at myself...I do that alot..not put a bra on over clothes...but I sure crack myself up!
Barb..if you're out there... I hope they aint workin ya to hard on that warehouse move !
Cottage: Salmon kebabs sound delish! DH and I had cajun blackened salmon last night, though. I don't think he'd eat it two nights in a row!
Ruth: Sounds like a fun time for everyone tonight! I bet it'll be nice to enjoy the music from your deck rather than next to a loudspeaker and a group of drunkies!
Kiko: Whoosh indeed! I'll take Schatzi's bet and raise you a Ho-Ho! (Uh oh, now it's just food porn!)
Indigal: WTG 6 lbs in 6 days is awesome! Sure, most of it is water weight, but it still feels good, doesn't it?
Schatzers: You never fail to make me smile!! Have a great day of shopping, and remember, undies should never be on-toppies!!
nessa: I hope you have a great day in spite of it being a weekend. Do you have time to take a break and watch the furbabies in the pool...I think that would be so funny and relaxing!
ME: I got the trim in the kitchen "killz'd" last night! No more black trim!! Well, almost. I forgot the kitchen window, so I'll be doing that this afternoon. Getting that done was my big thing to do for today, so I'll be cleaning out the rose bushes and doing some weedeating this morning. I've also got laundry and housecleaning to do as we have friends for bbq tonight!
I'm SO happy with DH. He actually offered to go to the store today so that I could work at home. What a sweetie! Now, if I could just get him to check the mail and drop off the recycling as well -- then I won't have to go out at all till church tomorrow! What a nice weekend!
Finally, I've decided to hire a personal trainer. She's a kinesiology student at the university here and has her certification already. She's only charging me $8 an hour and I'll meet with her 2 or 3 days a week. I'm going to start not next week, but the week after and I'm really excited. I know she's pretty tough, so she'll push me harder than I would! Hopefully, I'll see some big results in muscle tone when all this extra fat is gone!
Well, time to hit the laundry! Have a beachin' weekend!
The warehouse move was successful but did take awhile. We had one HUGE trailer that we loaded with stuff for the dump and then filled a smaller trailer, a pickup and my station wagon with stuff to keep. Then off to the new warehouse to unload. I got to the Roughrider game and hour and a half after the game was supposed to start. I was a bit worried as I approached the stadium and people were leaving. Was the game over already? No, it hadn't started yet. There had been heavy rain and the pack was sitting there waiting for the game to still start. They did do the fireworks during the seventh inning as the weather was starting to threaten again. They ended up stopping for rain again in the 10th inning (score 0 to 0) and Brian and I eventually decided to leave around 12:30! DH stayed to see if they would resume the game. Brian was given a damaged bat since he was one of the few kids left after midnight.
We slept in this morning but are thinking of going to the water park this afternoon to check things out before the birthday party.
Well it's scorching here. I slept with the fan on all night. Today will not be a beachy day as I will be treating myself all day. I feel on one's birthday all is forgiven, I just hope the scale can forgive me. Ay ya yay! I will be going dancing tonight , so hopefully most of it will be burned off.
Wel I hope everyone's Weekend turnsout to be a fun one. It sounds like everyone has a great weekend planned out. Big for everyone.
Motivated Hope that you enjoy your day. Did you find a new outfit yesterday?
Barb I am glad things went well and you were able to make it to the game. I enjoy the Roughriders games. We still have 4 tickets that we need to use.... wonder where the tickets are though....
India 6 pounds is awesome!! If I could get myself to string together more on-plan days, I know I would be more successful. I am on a roll with 3 days right now.
Nessa Hope your day gets better!
Schatzi You crack me up with your Ring Ding. Have fun shopping with DH. When do you start your new job?
Kim Hey you! Is your plan still to quit smoking on Monday? We are all here to support you! It is great that Weezle is quitting too, since you will both know what each other is going through.
The t-ball game was cancelled, although it wasn't posted on their website when I checked. Oh well, we got an oil change and grocery shopped. I also found some cute clothes for Abigail at Old Navy. I only let myself spend 20 bucks, though. I am not letting her wear any of the new stuff, but am putting it on the shelf in her closet for kindergarten.
Okay, need to keep going with the laundry, Megan is yapping away in her room and should be falling asleep soon. Time for a little me time.
One more thing, my best friend in the whole wide world is being induced with baby #3 as we speak. Send up a prayer for her for a speedy, safe delivery.
and a prayer that all goes well with your friend, Kiko! Our grandson is arriving July 18th if Andrea can hang in there til then, so I'll be asking for plenty of prayers during that!
Amber and I made her a t-shirt today, and it turned out great. I bought some glow-in-the-dark paint and some glitter paint for the girls to have fun with.
Ok, Jake's asking where his supper is () so I'd better go for now.
I'm finally home from work. Only 3 more days to go until I have a day off! I WANT TO GO TO THE POOL!!!!
141 hours and 7 minutes smoke-free....
And, good news! I'm not going to record it on my tickie until Monday but I'm down 6 lbs this week. Kind of exciting for just quitting smoking! I was afraid I was going to balloon.
I'm so sad that I'm limited in what exercises I can do. I have 30 minutes of physical therapy for my shoulder twice a week, but can't do much of anything else except swimming, and even then I can't usually use my right arm. I was told a big fat NO to volleyball this summer, at least not until later in the season. Sniffle. I miss my Hip Hop Abs and playing sports.
Well, I'm going to find something to eat for supper. I have a ton of cauliflower in the fridge that I may steam and pour a pepperjack cheese sauce over. Kind of sounds good to me. Hope you girlies have a lovely Saturday!
Cottage I will have to check out the glow in the dark paint, my kids would love it!! PM me your email address so I can send more ideas your way when I come across them. It has been raining so much here that I have had to keep on my toes with things for the kids to do.
Weezle That is FABULOUS that you quit and have recorded such a great loss. Your body must be rewarding you. Seriously though, that is great.
I changed my official Weigh day to Sundays for convienence. So I weighed in today, and officially lost 7 lbs this week! (since last Monday when I started SBD phase 1!
Not much planned today. I'm getting a mutton leg today which I'll cook up that should be good... It's a drizzly Sunday morning, day I hope to get things done around the house.
I reckon most people are sleeping...
I'll check in later, off to try and get some organizing done.
