Good Afternoon.
It is 5pm and I am just waking up. I have even eaten today but headed to get a salad and a pop up can of trout after I write this . :dizzy: I was up at 6am and went to this clothing give away. I found a lot of cute shirts for Gaby and some pants for me. I picked up this LLBean size 8 to get into after another 10 pounds.......but when I tried them on they fit!! Also, this lady offered me a size 4 pair and said "you look small, do you want these??"...lol......sweet but I ain't small. Anyway, that was my feel good moment for the day. After that I grabbed Momo and snuggled in bed with the sniffles - getting a sinus thing. Too much AC??? Oh, Cristina! I am waaaaaay late on everything. You are sweet, thanks again! I thought they said the iron thing was only an hour, now it is 5 hours, just like a blood transfusion. It must have to drip in slowly ???? Congrats on the 2 miles :bravo: Katy - I just read the offer of zucchini, how sweet. I think after 2 months of eating squash though I shall pass. How much do you have?? I have been getting mine at neighborhood house, they give free produce away on Monday, maybe you could donate it there?? I always grab enough for a week at a time:frypan: - lol......How was the parade?? I didn't make it. Sassy - VERY scary!! Hope you are having a good Saturday :) Hi to everyone else ~ Jules, Sue, Michelle and SusanNYC and anyone else passing through!!! :moped: Stop and say hi :) k- I am starved.......chat later..... |
Good Sunday!
Just checking in. I have a cold, drippy nose, feel like crude. Woke up and had a bowl of oatmeal w/ banana. It is yummy when you slice the banana in the bowl and pour the hot cereal over it - makes the banana kind of gooey. YUM - trust me it is good!!:hun: I guess that is it. Just trying to survive the day. Go in the morning for the iron thingie. Need to go pick Gab up from my mom's tonight. Blah....I think that is it!! Cheers :cheers: |
Hugs SASSY :hug: :hug: You be careful and yes, the world is becoming a scary place. That's enough to shake anyone up.
Susan...that is a long time...I'll be thinking of you tomorrow. :hug: Nothing going on today...just thought I would stop by and say HI to everyone while I was on the computer. Watching my favorite movie of all time...Sleepless in Seattle...I love that movie. Then at 8 Bridezilla and then LA INK...my fav shows on Sunday, lol. Anywho...take care ladies. |
Sassy - ugh - that is scary--glad you are ok
Cristina - Hi to you! I watched Bridezilla when we were away for our anniversary. I could not believe how crazy those gals get! It was fun to watch in a wierd sort of way. We watched one where the bride's daughter was doing everything in her power to chase off the groom, then when he didn't show up at the altar, she boo-hooed all over the place "I didn't MEAN for him to REALLY go away - what a jerk!" Her mom and the guy ended up eloping. The camera was on the daughter's face when she found out - priceless. Susan- I think that the produce donations from the community garden go to NH. I'm not totally sure about that, but if I keep pulling these huge zukes out of my yard, that's where I'm taking them. Yay for the smaller jeans! That has to make you feel good! Good luck with the iron thingie tomorrow. The parade was fun, but it is getter bigger every year, which kind of turns me off. This year they had vendors lined up on the parade route which really annoyed me...couldn't find a place to sit!? I don't know what they were thinking. It was ok when the parade started, but I was grousing about it until that happened. I'm getting pretty crotchedy in my old age :) Hi to Sue and Jules and anyone else reading this..Michelle? Are you checking in? Hope you are alright... I went to the gym today for Nia/cardio salsa double header. The Nia sub was yuck, but the salsa teacher was excellent as usual. I am going to be muy sore in the a.m. If I get up in time, I'll go to water aerobics which should help with the sore muscles. I'm off to sip a little wine, knit, and watch Big Brother...such BIG plans! Hey - we saw Knocked Up last night. Humor's pretty crude at times, but overall I really liked it - I thought it was surprisingly smart take on that particular situation. Had some good (and funny) observations about married life as well - in between all the f-words, lol! |
Good morning ladies. Nice to see you RosieKate. I remember having more zukes than I could use when we gardened. More of everything really. One year I canned 98 quarts of green beans. Haven't done them since either. LOL...
Busy morning. I already rode 2 miles, stripped and re-made beds, washed, dried and folded bedclothes, read the paper over coffee, un-loaded the dishwasher and fixed breakfast. I did WI this morning and I lost 2 pounds. That is great for me...I lose so slowly. Measured and sure enough, I am down over an inch each in the three places I thought to measure before. Waist, abdomen and hips. (that is over 3 inches each so far) YAY! I wish I had measured my thighs early on because I KNOW they are smaller. Now I have some incentive to keep plugging away at this..... We got rain in the night and it is sooo muggy this morning. By mid-week we are expecting mid 90's again and more humidity. Nothing planned for the rest of the day except hanging a few more pictures. I am sure I will find something to do. Happy WI to you all..... __________________ |
PS....When we came home from Vegas in March, with my winter weight gain I was 181 pounds. This morning I was 167!
:carrot::carrot: :cb: :cb: :cp: :cp: :dance: :dance: |
Good morning, ladies!
SUE...GREAT news! :woohoo: :bravo: WTG on the 2 pounds and the inches! And...for being at 167! KATY...I saw that one, lol! I would have been soooo mad for the groom not showing up myself and having to pay for my own wedding and ring, yikes! But yeah, it's a funny show and some of those ladies, if you want to call them that, lol, are terrible! I wonder though if some of it is just for tv though. Some I think you can tell they are that way which is terrible. WTG on the exercise! DD was wanting to see Knocked Up. SUSAN...thinking of you today missy, lots of hugs. :hug: :hug: HIYA JULES, SASSY & MICHELLE! AND...Miss SusanNYC...hoping all is well with you in the big city! Wow, it's a little weird to sleep in past 6. I've been getting up early for a while my body actually hurts when I lay in bed longer. But I enjoyed catching up on all the sleep, lol. Not done much yet, but getting ready to get my 2 mile WATP done and a walk on the treadmill. Do some cleaning and other than that...nothing. Have a GREAT Monday ladies! |
Quick hi over lunch!! BBL!!
|
Whisssssh, there goes Jules! Come back and chat girl!
Congrats on the 167 Sue!! Motivates me to get serious and get below 170....stuck at 176 right now - argh. I never been to the parade Katy, even when I lived right there in town. I noticed that people had marked their spots on Friday w/ chalk. Congrats on the miles walked Cristina!! and thanks for the best wishes today. I managed to get through the 5 hours today, feel exhausted now and think I will go to bed. chat more when I get my second wind :) |
Thank you Susan :thanks: Hope you got some sleep and I can only imagine how exhausted you were. That can't be easy being there for five hours.
Hiya Jules! Busy day so far...went for my 3 mile walk thru the neighborhood this morning. Came home did my 2 mile WATP video, went to the pool, then came home and mowed the front yard...what a work out! I think I over did it. But it is supposed to rain Thursday and I can't mow both the front and back the same day...too much for me. So tomorrow is the back yard and 3 mile walk. Doing good with the food and water as well. Getting some laundry done while I am on the 'puter. I've got to take the rest of the pictures off the wall in the living room & hallway so V can paint today after work. Didn't realize once he painted Josh's room he was going to start with everything else, so I am a happy camper. :) Anywho... Have a great day ladies! :hug: |
Good Afternoon!
Still feel like I am dragging. I go back to work tomorrow - kind of funny because I don't think my condition got any better. lol What I learned was my ex has it a lot tougher having to deal w/ the kids. It is so much easier to go to work. All the walls connect together Cristina!! You will probably end up painting the whole house.....and of course you need new furniture after that.....and carpet....lol I am sure Josh's room will look great. You are a sweet mom for doing that for him :) - Bravo on the walking!!! I need to really crack down w/ my eating....kind of getting off course. I would be happy with 174 by the end of this month. Still have time!!! k- off I go....hugs to all :) |
SuzyQ--I have been dragging myself all of a sudden. It's been rainy and it always makes me feel achy.
Cristina--I keep talking about painting my kitchen but it doesn't seem to happen. Maybe over Labor Day weekend!! Sue--I am so HAPPY for you!!! Katy--I haven't been to the gym in way too long..I just haven't been motivated. Knocked Up is a little crude but is hilarious--Teri kept seeing similarities between her and Dave. Sassy--keep safe!! Where's Michelle?? Well. I am outta here, I am so tired.... |
Jules- You better get some rest....have you been ill, or just pooped? Maybe you need your iron checked? Stay well gal.
Susan- Back to work? Sorry about that. I am also sorry that being home did not improve your condition very much. Is there anything else they can do for you besides rest? Seems like there should be....*scratching my head* Cristina- So neat that you are getting Josh's room painted. BUT better still to hear that he will soon be home. Way to go on all the walking (and mowing) Sassy- I would have been scared out of my wits. Of course, it doesn't take much to scare me. :) How's the new shift going by now? Michelle, RosieKate...Hi to you! I rode 4 miles tonight and it is so hot ..I melted. Well, that would be a good thing. LOL... Did some closet re-arranging since I got a new chest of drawers for in the closet. Finally getting all my storage straightened. Nothing going on tomorrow...how about you? |
Hi all
Spent the afternoon at Oaks Park...kids had a blast and we are all wiped. Chiro suggested to me yesterday that I consider cutting out dairy...might help my sinuses. Dang! I was afraid someone was going to tell me that someday. Well, the day is here and I thought I'd try it and see if it helps me to stop waking up with puffy, watery eyes and a runny nose. I have a check up with a naturopath in a few weeks, so this should prepare me incase this is her suggestion as well. Darn darn darn - I love cheese! Giving up milk and yogurt doesn't faze me a bit - but cheese :( I will have to grieve the cheese.... Hope to check in again before going out of town (last hurrah before school starts) Have a great evening everyone! |
Good morning, ladies!
SUSAN...sorry you're not feeling better and you have to head back to work. :hug: :hug: I just looked at your loses each month and have to say missy, I AM impressed! I didn't realize you had lost so much, which is GREAT! :carrot: I should be ashamed of myself...me with my sorry, pitiful little few pounds, lol. You keep me from not quitting so thank you! JULES...hope you're not working to hard missy. Hoping all is well with you and yours. Lots of hugs :hug: SUE...yeppers, I am a happy camper with Josh finally coming home :cp: It will be short but anything/time is better than none at all. Then the poor kid goes back to Hawaii...I feel for him, lol. WTG on the biking! :carrot: KATY...no dairy eh? That would be easy for me, lol. I like milk once in a while and like cheese but don't eat as much as I should. You guys enjoy your last hurrah before school! And be safe! I was up early and got my 3 miles in. it really is nice getting up and getting my walk in early and out of the way. Even though I am not a morning person and I HATE getting up early...once I am up and going and my walk is done I feel good. Since I will be mowing the backyard later I didn't do my 2 mile WATP. It takes 50-60 minutes to do the back so that is a GREAT work-out for me! I just would like to see some results from all this walking and mowing, lol. Oh well, like I tell everyone else, I am doing this for my health so...heading to the library at 9 and get some gas. Didn't realize it went up again. Not driving to the park I haven't had to get gas but once every week and a half so hadn't really noticed the prices. Later on, need to make reservations for our little weekend, wedding getaway in Missouri in Sept. V's nephew is getting married...I LOVE weddings! Okay, better get going. Take care ladies, and I hope everyone has a wonderful day! :hug: |
