  • Belated Happy Birthday Katy. I am glad you had a nice day.

    Michelle, I don't have myspace. sorry. Was great that your DD graduated...and she sounds like a normal teen with the moods.

    Susan, I imagine you are moving today. Don't work too hard.... I dis-like moving and after we sell the place out West I don't care if I never move anything again.

    Kind of a lazy hot day here. I rode 2 miles this morning. Went with DH to pick up glass for a cabinet he is building. Nothing major planned except sweeping/dusting. That is a never ending job with construction going on near-by.
    Hope you all have a nice lazy week-end.
  • Hello ladies....

    I'm back! And so very happy to be back...there is no place like home that is for sure. Had a GREAT visit with most of my family. Some don't live there so didn't get to see one sister and one brother. Took lots of pictures and when I can figure out this digital I will load them on the 'puter and share.

    MICHELLE...I went to AR to visit with my family. My dad wasn't doing so great...had two surgeries within a month. I wanted to see him before anything happened and I can't. He seems to be doing better but he is going to worry himself to death I am afraid. CONGRATULATIONS to your DD! And sorry your tooth was/is a pain. Is it any better? I like Kohl's. Had never heard of them before moving here but now I see them everywhere.

    SUSAN...make sure and pm me your new address missy! Be careful moving and enjoy your new home. Glad your blood level is going up. I am sure that is probably why you've been so tired lately. But it is improving so that is good news. GREAT picture of you and little Miss Gaby. And CONGRATULATIONS to your DD as well!

    SASSY...doncha just hate waiting?! I hate when Dr's are inconsiderate like that too. He should have given you the results before they left on vacation, ugh. Glad you guys got your new back door! Woohoo!

    SUE...it's not real hot here today, but it seems hotter because of the humidity. It's muggy, ick! Of course I don't plan on going out in it, lol. Enjoy your weekend.

    JULES...I bet that was GREAT...hearing and seeing your grandbaby. And it is cool seeing them inside of you. My friend got a video every time she went, I never did, just pictures. But it is so cool seeing that little tiny thing growing inside of you. You are going to be a good grandmama!

    KATY...glad you had a nice birthday! And you got a rental to go home instead of having to wait...I hate waiting! I think I just mentioned that, lol!

    Take care ladies and I hope everyone is having a nice weekend!
  • MICHELLE...I knew I would forget...I do have a myspace account but it's only to keep in touch with Josh. He puts pictures and stuff up for me to see that way. It saves hime time since he is on there when he gets computer time. That way he doesn't have to go to his email and do it that way. I don't really have a profile or anything. But if you want to share yours I would love to see it!
  • Sorry to keep changing my accounts, but I decided to just keep my old original one lol.

    CRISTINA ~~ I'm so happy to see you back and glad you had a nice time. I know what you mean with there's nothing like home! I hope your dad keeps progressing with getting healthier and stronger. My myspace account is set at private, but if you would want to exchange friends, I would love to, but I understand if you want it just for Josh also. Just let me know, it's no problem! My tooth felt better for about two days after the doctor worked on it, but now for this past week, it has been giving me terrible pain to hot/cold temps and even chewing on the tooth, so I have an appointment this next Thursday afternoon to get a root canal done, not fun at all! My DD leaves on Tuesday for Maine and will be gone for two weeks. As a matter of fact, I'm going to Kohls today, I just love that store!
  • FWIW~ I have a myspace account and would be happy to exchange friend requests with any of you...I use it mostly to keep in touch with a high school friend of mine, but I 've been kind of lazy about adding more friends to it. I use the blog there to link over to my other blogs and sometimes I write a book review now and again. My name there is also rosiekate.

    Cristina - Thanks for the lovely card...so sweet of you! I'm glad you had a nice visit with your family.

    Michelle - Whee! I'm going to have friend #2 on Myspace...I'll go over there and check later to add, etc.

    HI everyone else! To day is my 17th wedding anny and it's been a busy day. We aren't celebrating today, as we are escaping for a romantic weekend at the end of the month. I did buy some cinnamon rolls from Zingerman's for DH as an early Father's Day present. My FIL was over to work on some home reno, so both dads were able to have a treat.

    BBL!
  • Michelle...I didn't mean that it was just for Josh and I wouldn't add any friends. I opened it for that reason, otherwise I wouldn't have. Too hard trying to keep up here and a couple other sites, lol. But yes, I would love to add you as a friend. I think mine is Proud Army Momma, lol. I'll have to check but pretty sure. I don't really have a bio/profile as I haven't taken any time to actually do anything yet. Maybe I can get some ideas and tips from you and Katy! Wow, your DD is headed to Maine? Long trip there...tell her to have a safe trip and enjoy. And you have fun at Kohl's!

    Katy...HAPPY ANNIVERYSARY! YW for the card...sorry it was late. I took it with me and got busy and almost forgot to mail it.

    Nothing much going on today...being lazy for sure. I feel so tired...thinking it was from the long drive. Going down was so easy...guess I was happy about going. But coming back...ugh, seemed like it took sooooo long to get home! Anyway, going to grill some hot dogs and burgers later, nothing fancy. I did make V a cake for father's day.

    Have a great day ladies
  • Good Morning!

    Happy Belated and Happy Anniversary Katy!! Sorry I missed your birthday.

    YAY - Cristina! Glad to have you back with us! Missed you terrible and ate a lot because of it! If I gain tomorrow at WI - it is your fault! hehe - jk. love you!!

    Hi to Sue ,Sassy ,Michelle and Jules!! I am just doing a quickie. Moving still but stayed at my new place last night!! It was great, so quite. Gaby stayed at her dad's last night. Trying to get her bedroom ready - of course she will sleep with me. lol

    chat more tomorrow!!
  • CRISTINA ~~ I looked up your myspace with that name and I did find one with a little soldier avatar like you've used here before, but it said you were single and didn't have any friends added, also it said Wichita. I was going to request to be your friend, but just didn't know if it was you. Otherwise, you can go to www.myspace.com/mishey64 and request to be added to mine.

    SUSAN ~~ So glad you got all moved and had a quiet night last night. Getting into your own place is great.
  • My son went to Annapolis to get OT work on his bosses house on the bay. They are going out on the boat and eating fresh Chesapeake Bay crabs. DD & I are taking her Dad out for Father's Day dinner. He is finally going to see her new apartment.


    Michelle, Katy & Cristina--I too have a myspace account. All but one of my friends are in the lower 20's except an old friend/neighbor/high school pal who is my age. My niece posts pics of the baby, both kids have them and ds's gf, my ds's friend Tony and I keep in touch while he is in Iraq and his wife posts pics, my dd's friend Misti is on my friends list cause she says I am her second mom. Use my email address to find me.

    Michelle--my husband says kids get so moody like that right before they fly the nest to help us with the transition.

    SuzyQ--glad you got all moved in, we started looking at cribs--baby will be sharing the one bedroom with mom.

    Cristina--glad you made it back safe and sound. Long car trips always take a toll on me the next few days after getting back.

    Katy--Happy Bday and Anniversary--sorry I missed it. Our anniversary was June 7 we took off from work and went out to eat and for a long motorcycle ride. DD turns 20 on the 20th.

    Sue--you are doing so great on the exercise!!

    Sassy--where are you girl!! miss you!!
  • JULES ~~ You know, my DH brought that same theory up yesterday about the kids and I think I'm really believing that's true. I don't have your email address so could you go to mine since it's listed above and request to be my friend so I can add you -- THANKS!!!
  • Thank you all for the birthday and anniversary wishes!

    My DH ordered up the annual unit of dairy compost for my birthday....as requested. I so weird, but that really made me happy, lol!

    I'm working on dinner for Father's Day and have to get back to it..I'll BBL...just wanted you all to know I was thinking of you and appreciating all the thoughtfulness...
  • I'm Here! lol


    Here I AM!!!!!

    Good HOT morning all!

    Its HOT & STICKY out already! It was still hot and sticky out when I got off of work at 4 am! YUCK! We did get a teeny tiny bit of rain though yesterday, not much mind you, but hey I'll take what I can get!!!!!!!!

    Well no news yet about the Catscan. My dr has been on vacation and he comes back today so I just went ahead and left a message asking them to call me back with the results, that way I don't have to sit up and wait for them........So we will see, hopefully I will hear something back by today, but hard to say. lol.

    I watched the ending of "I lost it", its on Discovery Health Channel I believe, anywho, the last story was like the woman was talking to ME! She had been taking care of everybody but herself, she got depressed, didn't want to go out and do things anymore. Her "breaking" point was when she went to give blood and they actually rejected it saying her cholesterol was WAY too high. She then started the Atkins Diet and Exercising. She went from 300 lbs to 162 in about 2 yrs. She said the key is to find something that works for you and that you can do and to put yourself first. Hmmmmmm think I've heard that many times before, where have I heard that??? Hmmmmmmm. Yup, I know, you gals here! lol.

    So I think I get it. I need to just suck it up and actually *gulp* put myself first for once?? Dunno how to do that, but I need to try I guess. My first step I have already taken. I had a horrible experience at work a few weeks ago with a co-worker of mine that is basically making me miserable. I don't want to report them because they have a wife and 5 children. I know that isn't my "responsibility" but I just couldn't report the person.

    So the first step I took was to email my co worker who works opposite nights of me asking him if he is willing to "switch" shifts with me, if its okay with the boss. He has been wanting off of that shift because well do the math, he works 40 hours, just like I do, only in 3 days, where I do it in 4.......

    Okay so you're asking, how is that a step towards weightloss? Well this stress is just doing a major number on me. I can't sleep, I only eat like once a day and when I do I am sooooooooo hungry I over eat. I know terrible......

    So by relieving some of my stress, it will help me function better so I can focus more on weight loss. So basically I'm doing something I don't "normally" do and going out on a limb and reaching out to people for help. I started with asking my co worker to switch shifts, so that is #1, dunno if he'll want too or not (he works tonight so won't know until at least tonight) but its a step. Then I got to figure out what works for me weightloss wise? Because whatever I am doing is definitely not working........

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY & ANNIVERSARY KATY! I hope they both were great!

    Well I guess that is enough. I better stop before I have one or maybe all of you girls knocking down my door! LMAO! (Just teasing ladies, Love ya!)

    Thanks for listening and I hope you have a Great Week!
  • Oops, forgot about a report that I need to get out by 9am! Better type fast!
    I survived the weekend! yay. I did a WI this morning and down 2 pounds! yay. happy about that!

    k - bbl..........
  • My weight stayed the same...and with all that pedaling! Well, gotta do better this week. I rode 2 miles this morning before my coffee even. Had a slice of toast and a bowl of melon for breakfast. It's time for a snack, but I am not hungry, so I will wait for lunchtime.

    Sassy- I do agree with you about the stress. Reduce that and it can only help with the weight loss. Will you be working opposite hours from your DH if you change?

    Susan- You better get that report done.....gotta keep the job. Way to go on the 2 lbs. down. I need to just push my self away from the table more I know.

    Katy- I am glad you got what you wanted for your birthday....couldn't you have asked for diamonds or pearls?? Ha...just kidding.

    Michelle, Jules, Cristina...hi to all...
  • I am baaaack, yay. It is freezing in this office!
    My mom said I can come and get Momo, the kitty!! I love that cat. He is fat and orange /white - looks like Morris with the attitude included. lol

    Hi Sue! Bike riding sounds like so much fun. Beck has a bike I might take out and ride. It is an old 50 style bike that is pink.

    Sassy - Your thinking sounds great! Getting rid of the stress and such. I tried to do that too but the girls protested too much and kept coming back to me. haha

    k- lame,,,,,,I had oatmeal multi grain this morning - it has barley and rye in it. taste sweeter and has more of a taste - also 20 cal less! I bought it at TJoes. I also had a slimfast and a wheat bagel. So I am full until lunch time.

    Heard from M after I wished him a happy fathers day. He is buried in work and keeping the office afloat. YAWN......lol - gawd that man is no fun!

    My co worker from work helped me move. He is sweet and drools over me. I just could never date a co worker. And this isn't the McDreamy that is soooo cute that I have had a crush on for 4 years - this is another co worker. He wore these nifty boots that Rach kept staring at. She said I should date him just for his boots. lol

    k- that is my morning ramble!!

    back later!
