Morning
It is beautiful and sunny here. Suppose to be in the mid 70's today and most of the week next week. One day it is suppose to get up to 78. It is "flip flop and sandal" season!! I think I will give myself a pedicure today. I don't like to go get my "first" pedicure of the season because my feet need a bit more extra attention. LOL

We are going to be planting flowers in our flower beds today. so we are off to lowes shortly. Need to do some grocery shopping, homework, and housework!!

Hope you all have a great day!

Good morning! Up fairly early on the weekend for me. Couldn't sleep last night and finally took an Ambien at 1:30 and slept until 7:30. My beloved UNI lost to Michigan State in the Sweet 16 last night so got to bed late, then tossed and turned. Coffee is helping this morning. Palm Sunday tomorrow is such a long service, trying to decide if I want to go tonight or in the AM. Going to a "Natural Living Expo" with my hubby this morning. Should be fun! Had a good Phase I this week, so I feel much better after last week's eating fiasco. Went to a pizza party last night to watch the BB game, so I made a veggie pizza on TJ's whole wheat pizza dough. It was very good. Limited myself to 2 pieces and I was quite satisfied. Jeans are fitting well again. Hope you all have a great weekend!

Anne - I feel your pain

Good Morning you beautiful South Beach Women...

Got the cup of Joe in hand.. got to tend my facebook farm and hope to be listing a few things on ebay to get some extra $.

Treated myself to the Biggest Loser Cardio Max dvd that skinny little Bob kicked my arse..muscles are sore in places i didnt know i had muscles..haha its a good hurt..

Made the spagetti squash pizza last night..OMG.. with some leftover buffalo chicken..tasted just like chicken parmasen..Hubby said " next time can you make some for all of us.."

its a great spring day here in AZ, already warm..LOL... in hopes of having a nice walk or bike ride...

Have a wonderful day ladies....

Cyndi, that's wonderful news on the job front! At least it buys you all some time, anyway.

We checked at several garden supply centers and it seems everyone is temporarily out of gardening soil because of the weather. I put in a call to my son, who is a landscaper, to try to pick me up a few yards if he can find any, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

Hi, Susan!

Happy weekend everyone! Thanks to my DH getting up early with our son, I got to sleep in this morning, which felt sooo good. And thankfully I think I'm over the worst of SB flu, I feel MUCH better today. We're heading out for a walk around the lake and a trip to the playground soon.

mmc, What did you think of "The Hangover"? I thought it was hilarious, DH and I laughed SO hard.

Morning all. Er afternoon!

DW and I got up early, went for brunch, hit a small farmer's market (they only sold "Stuff" no fresh fruits or veggies), another cheese only shop (I did get a few new cheeses for us to try for lunch) and then to Whole Foods.

Now, I am going to nap before starting my paper. Hope you girls are enjoying your day!

Hi chickies! Still chugging along on The Beach!

I really did plan to get back here this AM! In a moment of weakness I decided to fix the light switch..needed a new one at Lowe's...got back home...installed it...washed the fixture...had tea with my CSA partner...made pesto...decided to apply for a job at the organic restaurant so went to lunch...and the store...and DH's appt...now I'm heading to the library! This has been one of those days that didn't go where I was thinking it would. I read everyone's posts

A special hello to our new beachers! It's a beautiful day here, I can ski on Monday! I'm in a beachy mood!

We got the flower bed planted today. Well dh did most of the work. I just told him where to put stuff. I also planted all of the window boxes and other planters. I also got a good deal of housework done today. The kids are having a sleepover tonight just waiting for everyone to arrive. I tried the crack slaw tonight. I made mine with shrimp and threw in some snap peas and portabella mushrooms. It was good, but I think it was missing somehting. It needs something more. I forgot the red pepper flakes so maybe that is what was missing.

Have a good night

Tammie

Thank you so much for your advice and opinions about my planned cheat. I love that I can get non-judgmental input on both sides of my decision. I would have felt supported whatever I decided to do. You gals are the best I debated all day and ended up sub-less

Catch you tomorrow when my guests are not around.

Yeah for you Karen!

I must admit, this forum makes me feel normal. So many people around me eat NOTHING like I do. Aren't these chicks great?

Debbie - apply for a job?!?! Aren't you busy enough!??! (although it does sound like fun!!)

We just got home from my DS birthday party. I have decided with those different little boy personalities, that his teacher is a saint. Or crazy. PHEW!!

Have a great night!!

Good morning! It looks like spring is back with April showers starting a bit early.

Jazz seems back to normal and was OK at class yesterday. He sure needs a refresher course in the "down stay" command. I have two weeks before the next class and need to schedule him in daily.

We celebrated Earth Hour after dinner at Heather's last night. We sat in candle light and talked and laughed. John and Rob also announced that they are getting married next June. They've been together for twenty years and this will be a big event.

Church this morning and then a day of deskwork with a bit of quilting for variety.

What's happening chez toi?

Good Sunday morning! It's back to freezing temps here and a cold rain is expected. Brrrrrr!

Karen, good for you for staying OP at your family celebration last night! If I'm going to have a planned cheat, I want the extra calories to be worth it, and a sub just doesn't fit the bill. I hope you had a good time and that it was a happy celebration!

Debbie, the job you have applied for sounds like it would be fun. Good luck!

Twynn, a belated Happy Birthday to your son!

We spent a really quiet, laid back day yesterday at home, but Jake is feeling much better. We'd like to get some garden prep started today, but the weather will play a big factor in that since rain is moving in. My big excitement of the day may just be going to Bed, Bath & Beyond and buying a new set of frying pans, instead.
The kids will be over later and I should start thinking about what to make them for dinner.

How's everyone's Sunday shaping up?

Ruth, I forgot all about Earth Hour last night, and I had meant to observe it. I'm glad Jazz is feeling like his old self. Please convey my best wishes to John and Rob. After 20 years together, I'm glad they're finally going to make it official.
