Hi everyone!
I've been out of town, visiting my mom for the 4th. I have way too many posts to catch up on, so I'm not even going to try to do individuals now, but will try to check in over the next few days and get caught up with everyone. We had a great time with Mom in Goldendale. She gave us a new mattress for our bed (desperately needed), and some antique furniture that I grew up with. I love getting this kind of stuff, and my mom has good taste, so I am happy to bring it into the house. It also reminds me of my childhood and that makes me happy, too. BTW Susan, I think it was me you saw in the Village..as I was walking at that time. I think I was wearing a light blue tee... Oh..another BTW...while in Goldendale, we were checking out all the July 4th festivities, which they had today instead of yesterday ( and no fireworks...weird).. Anyway, we checked out the used book sale at the library and I bought my first Shopaholic book! Better late the the party than never, right? I think it's called Shopaholic and Sister. I am finishing up a good book called Bread Alone about a recently ditched L.A. trophy wife who starts her life over again in Seattle as a baker's apprentice..it's really good summer reading. TTFN ladies...hope you are all enjoying your holiday weekend... |
Katy~Shopaholic & Sister is the 4th book. It wasnt really one of my faves. You should read the first book..Confessions of a Shopaholic. That way you can better understand Becky and her craziness, lol.

Hi
Hi Ya. :wave:
Thanks for all the wonderful words. I appreciate them. Not doing indi's now. I am actually cooking. I know amazing! :faint: It isn't anything too wonderful, just home-made fries (not the bagged kind, I actually cut up the potatoes myself) and hamburgers. At least I control the ingredients and has to be better than that crap at the fast food chains for sure! I am waiting on the hamb. to see if maybe if dh wants to grill em, which would be even better. ;) But at least I'm baking the ff's not frying, so that is at least a tad bit better. :) I know I'm def. not the worse off and I am not saying I am, at all. :no: I just wanted to comment on how I was feelin' was all..........:kickcan: Guess I just need to "buck up" and just do it and quit the whining. :nono: Have a Good Night! |
Sassy - :hug: You have every right to your feelings. I feel bad if you ever have to think you need to buck up and stop whining. We all need to be heard and our feelings validated, that is NOT whining. :)
I only write of my motivation and my feelings, it wasn't addressed to anyone. It helped me though to write it. At the moment I have this wave of depression over me and I am just waiting for it to pass. I certainly can't buck up to that,but if I look for some postitive in my life it helps me survive another day until I can actually feel happy again.....because this weekend I am so miserable and close to tears. So, many hugs to you!! Katy - I agree w/ Francie. I could not stand Becky's sister, she was way bossy. It is funny though. :) Was that you in the village?? Your hair is long?? Cristina - :bravo: on the pound! And thanks so much :) k- out of here...... |
Sorry...no indies tonight and I promised. :( Just super busy day and really tired.
Saw DD and DGS..yay! He has grown so much and it just makes me sad that I can't see him more often. So smart for his age...(grandma speaking here) Of course, it goes without saying that I wish I could see DD more. TAH DAH...we bought a new car and will pick it up Monday. I can't wait...will post a picture if I remember. It is an HHR after all! |
Hello All
Hi All. :wave:
Well Dinner was a success! DH came home, grilled the hamb. and we ate the baked fries. Neither one of us finished all of it. :bravo: I also did up all the dishes and cleaned up the kitchen too. So wow must be something in the air or something. We watched "The Bucket List" with Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson. It was pretty good, definitely makes you think for sure. They are two of my favorite actors too and I thought they did well together. Suzy Q -- Awwww I didn't mean anything by my comment. I was just "lettin off steam" really. I know what you meant. :hug: Sorry you are close to tears. Big :hug: Sue -- I hope you get some rest. :hug: I wanted to lie down with DH but I know I can't since I have to go back to work tonight. :p But I just look for the positive, in about 2 weeks or so, DH will be on my shift and then I'll probably be coming here complaining about how much I'm seeing him! lol. Glad you got to see your DD and DGS. Family is so important, I sure miss my mom. I can't wait for the day that we are finally living together or closer to each other!!! WOOHOO! :congrat: on the new wheels! :D Can't wait to see it! Well all, I'm doing better than before when I posted. You have to keep in mind that when I posted before I had just gotten up about 1 1/2 hrs. before that so was still kinda "grumpy" if you couldn't tell. :p So I apologize if it came out the wrong way, I really didn't mean anything..........:hug: Ok well I hope you all have a Wonderful Sunday! I think its supposed to start getting HOT and HUMID again, at least it is here in OH. :p At least I'll be at work in the heat, so won't matter much to me..........Although our building does get toasty, esp on our floor since we are all "closed off" from the rest of the place. (secure access) But soon I will probably be back on the floor I started out on anyways. :rolleyes: I just wish they'd make up their minds already!!! lol. Well I guess I better close before this gets too long! :hug: |
Good morning!
Sassy- your dinner sounds absolutely yummy! I love lamb, particularly grilled with some rosemary..mmmm, I might have to make some of that soon. I 'm so glad to see that your DH will go to the same shift as you..I can't imagine how hard it has been for you two to be on opposite schedules. Sounds like your job is perking up :) Sue - I can't open the attachment for some reason, but I do want to see your beautiful new car. Hope you and hubby can ( or did) sneak off. I really want to do that, but we are ba--roke! Hub just spent $$ on car repairs so the only sneaking off we are going to get to do is to the back yard, lol! I'll bbl for some more chat..meanwhile, I took some pics of my flowers that I thought I'd share, so let's see if I can get it to upload properly http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3135/...fdb4c58bc8.jpg |
Well, I was able to get one of them in the post. Here's the other one...
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3080/...f2c36ae5ff.jpg PS - thanks for the heads up on Shopaholic..I think I may check out the first one from the library before I read the one I bought. Fortunately, the kids' school has a used book sale every spring and I can unload books I don't want or like there and pass them on the someone else. |
just popping in to let you all know that we made it back home from my parents house. my mom basically held us hostage on Friday night and said that we couldn't go home. so we stayed the night and came home yesterday afternoon. we hung out for a little bit and then took my sister to another sisters house. then went out to see some fireworks. we were all so exhausted last night! I fell asleep while trying to get Brandon to sleep. Tommy was falling asleep at the computer.
Francie~ Thanks for that guys name! I will have to look online and see if I can find it! I got a couple of books from my mom's house to read. One is called "Wasted" by Marya Hornbacher. It is a memoir about anorexia and bulimia. And the other one is called "90 minutes in heaven" by Don Piper. Other then that nothing really new going on. Oh yeah......we got some pediasure from my mom for Logan. He has been drinking it and eating all his meals that we put in front of him. so, I am happy with that. And he is getting his belly back! |
Inching down the scale to 153.4, yay. Had oatmeal for breakfast and a chicken salad for lunch. I have to get started on my water. Gaby comes home in a few hours, thank goodness!
bbl w/ indi's - hope you all are having a good day. :hug: |
well, we took the kids to the pool today. we were there for 2 hours! now we are getting some dinner and then an early bed time for the kids.
we are still waiting for our stuff for the insurance and for the grocery shopping.....so I hope both of those go through soon! |

Hey Gang:
I am just responding to those who posted to me, for now. I'll post more probably on the weekend -- when I'm off! K? Katy -- It was good and neither one of us finished!! :carrot: Tonight before I came in, he stopped and got a Rotisserie Chicken. Usually I love those but this one was EXTREMELY peppery and I am a pepper lover and it was WAY TOO peppery even for me!!! :p Anyways I just pulled the skin off -- its not good for me anyways! lol. We did the lamb on the grill with rosemary once and it was good, but the recipe dh followed used WAY too much of the rosemary. We found some AWESOME mint jelly at the health food store. I can't remember what it used to be called, now its a Whole Foods Store, it used to be something else.........Anyways it is the best! Doesn't taste like that spearment gum we had as kids that had the goo inside? Does anybody remember that? lol. Anyways this mint jelly does NOT taste like the gum, it tastes like MINT! lol. And YES I'm VERY happy that DH is coming to my shift, but I will beleive it when I see it, you know how my co. is!!! lol. Sue -- Love the new wheels! :cool: Take Care All!!! (I bet you all wish I worked EVERY day don't ya? That way my posts would be short ALL the time! :lol:) :hug: |
just popping back in for my nightly visit.
Sue~ I love your new car! One of the kids' godparents has an HHR. Sassy~ Don't have too much fun at work tonight! |
Originally Posted by tommysgirl18: Oh Yeah, LOTS of fun! lol. They should sell tickets its so darn fun! :rofl: Have a Good one! |

Well, we are now gearing up to do our grocery shopping, and with be 100% fully on the SBD......so which us luck that we don't strangle each other in the process! |

Just a quicl pop-in for me right now. Finished up my exercise and getting ready to head out for a couple of errands. Be back later to post more and catch up. Have a good one! :D |
Quick pop in at work---bbl for indys!! Hope everyone is having a great day!!!

Good Morning,
I am so glad it is Monday! I have tons to do and that helps keep my mind from worrying too much. I have a huge run in my nylon and I think I will just take them off because I bought them 50 pounds ago and they are too saggy, shows the super glue blob that I applied to stop the snag. Ya, super glue....I am not a chick that does things half a$$....unless it is exercise. haha. Good news is I weighed in at 152.2. I am just putting it down at 152, otherwise I become obsessed, now I will just try to stay off the scale til Friday. omg- I also claimed my last week of unemployment yesterday and there was a notice on the website about the extra 13 weeks that the senate passed. So, I called and it would be my full amount (455 per week) for another 13 weeks, I just have to call Wednesday to restart and I don't even have a lapse in payments. Thank God....otherwise I had visions of moving in with family members next month. And if that isn't enough excitement the Bachelorette is on tonight. Go Jesse!!!! I have job things this morning so hope you all have a good Monday! Love the flowers Katy!! Beautiful car Sue!! chat more later. |
doing my daily pop in.....
we are going grocery shopping tonight, and then we will be on SBD 100%. like I mentioned in my post last night, wish us luck that we don't strangle each other! SuzieQ~ That is great to hear about the extended pay on the unemployment! yay on the 152!!! I am going to get myself into bed sooner, so that I can get back up in the morning to get my workouts done before the kids get up in the morning! |
Susan~Congrats on 152!!!! WTG!!!! Team Jesse for sure!!!!!!
Anyways..I'm gonna be real quick right now. I just started reading "The Host" and I wanna get back to it, lol. But I think it's time to donate my hair now. If it's 10 inches, then I'm gonna make an appt to get it cut and styled. My hair will probably be kinda short for awhile..but eh, its just hair. It'll grow back. I'm donating my hair to Locks of Love in memory of my mom & aunt. http://www.locksoflove.org/ When Fonzo gets home, I'm gonna have him measure my hair..I'll let you know how long it is. Please let it be 10 inches or more!!! Okay..back to book!! |
Me again...
KATY...the flowers are beautiful! Glad you enjoyed time with your momma. SUSAN...love the new avatar! And :yay: on the checks and to being at 152! :woohoo: Lots of hugs to you! SUE...beautiful car! That is a pretty color! Hope you enjoy it and glad you had a nice visit with DD and the grands. FRANCIE...that is a sweet thing to do! DD was going to cut her hair and I told her to remember Locks of Love. If I can ever get mine that long again I will do it too! Hoping you have 10 ins. :crossed: Nothing going on with me...same old stuff, different day. Going to go watch Cambrie swim later. She's been taking swimming lessons and Friday wanted to call her Nana, lol. So she told me to come watch her. Hope everyone is having a good day! |
Back again for a few minutes...I'm bored, what can I say, lol.
Anyone see the news on Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban? They had a baby girl! I love it and am so happy for them but what the heck? They named it Sunday...Sunday???? Guess it would be cute with the nn Sunny. Love the mn though...Rose...the new filler name. Sunday Rose Kidman Urban. Just thought I would share. Hope everyone is having a great day! Going to try and get V to take me to Red Lobster before going to watch Cambrie. He got a gift card to there for Father's Day and I have been waiting and waiting, lol. Later Gators :wave: |
3 hours til The Bachlorette!! I am so getting Gaby into bed in 90 mintues so we have time to read and make sure she is snoring by 7:55pm.
Cristina - I like your book avatar too! I would never wear those girly shoes in my avatar and goodness knows I don't even own a purse....but my name is Susan, so I thought I would use it.lol I just haven't found one that I really like that is why I keep changing it. I read about Nicole's little baby daughter. I am thrilled for her and her husband. I am sure it will be a beautiful baby. I am not too hot on the name, it is like a day of the week , right?? lol.....I think I did read it has spirtual meanings, be interesting to hear why they chose Sunday as a name. Enjoy Red Lobster, I have never been there.....let me know what you order! Mindee- What is SBD?? Have fun shopping! Francie - That is really great about the hair!! Good for you. Sassy - I remember the gum that burst, I forget the name though. :wave: to Sue, Katy, Jules, Tammy, and Asia! Hope you all are having a good Monday. I am so stuffed on lettuce...I made a huge salad for lunch, and trying to think what is for dinner....also need to save some calories for my pretzels and mustard. No exercising today, just scattered. I would like to do the gym at the community center,I know I keep talking about this but I was at the pool yesterday and so jealous of the ladies w/ toned bodies. I can have that too!! I just need to get my arse in there and learn how....and there are trainers available, I don't know if that is an extra cost. Anyway, a toned body would make me feel better. Thanks about the extended unemployment and weight comments, that is sweet. I was at my wits end trying to decide who to move in with.....and nobody wanted me....lmao..oh, the ex's did. Ya, right. Speaking of ex's though..... McD and I talked a bit and might take Gaby and a relative of his (another 6 year old girl visiting from Alaska) to the zoo or at least do a playdate. I haven't seen him in a month so it would be nice if we could be friends since he does live across the street. k- better think dinner and spend time w/ Gaby. Night all! |
Cristina~I love the name Sunday!! Even Fonzo thought it was cute, lol. But then again...we like the name and character Wednesday from the Adam's Family. I like your avator too. I have a ton of books icons, if you ever wanna see them..let me know and I'll send them to you or post them on here.
Oh..and my hair is 12 inches long!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm gonna get it cut after payday!! Yay!! |
Francie - Wednesday was a cute name and we have Tuesday Weld...great on the hair!
Enjoy the show tonight, I wish I lived on the east coast!! haha k- have to get Gabster headed towards bed. |
Hi All. :wave:
|
:wave: Hi Sassy
|
just doing my nightly post......
SuzieQ~ SBD stands for South Beach Diet. Now, I just need some luck in that I won't strangle him during this first phase! Francie~ That is great about your hair!!!! I keep saying that I am going to do that, but then I end up getting it all chopped off because it is too hot. Cristina~ have fun watching Cambrie! how was Red Lobster? |
Well talk about a day. My truck was broken. My poor boyfriend had a hard time fixen it to. Its done though. I ended up riding my bike to work. Its about 2 miles. Well one of the tired is low so I go to try and air it up but the pump broke. Nobody could give me a ride. I mean nobody. So i rode with a partial flat tire. On the way I thought I was gonna die. The wind was blowing agaisnt me. It was awful. At least my truck is fixed. Iwent over to my best friends house. SHe is really fit and she has been trying to really push me. We did the walk away the pounds 4 mile walk. It was so much fun. Tomarrow I weigh. I really dont want to. I am actually really scared to. I dont know why. I am sure things will be fine. So anyways moving on....
I am really not a big kidman fan. I actually really dont like her. But I love Keith Urban. I really like the name too. I never would of thought of it. Mindee- I hope you had fun with your kids at the pool. I really want to go swimming. Maybe tomarrow. Good luck with the SBD. Sue- Awesome car. It looks really cool. I like those. Christina- I hope you got to go to red lobster! Ilove that place. It has been ages since I have been there. Susan- Great job on the 152!!! I cant wait till I weigh 152. Icant wait till i am in the 160's. Good luck on being friends with your ex. Its always beter to be friends. Francie- I wish I had a foot of hair. I think it is really cool that youare donating it. |
Omg!! I totally checked and looked up who DeAnna picked!!! LoL!!! I couldnt stand the suspense.
Update: I'm so happy she picked Jesse. I thought for sure she would've picked Jason. He's a good guy, I'm sure he'll make some girl very happy. That was really pathetic that Jeremy showed up though. Like, get over it man!!! Jeez, lol. Okay..back to watching the After Rose show. |
..and it's a win for Team Jesse! Apparently one of the reality tv boards were up in arms when it leaked that he won..they were threatening boycotts of the show, the producers must have forced her to pick him, yada yada...get over it people..IT'S A TV SHOW! The spoilers were flying fast and furious and one of them was that when Jeremy came back it was to rat Jesse out for texting his current girlfriend during the run of the show. Apparently, he initially came on the show to get some more visibility and pimp his buddy's snowboarding apparel, then he dumped the gf when got to F2. If it were true, I wish they would have shown it...I think it would have made it more interesting.
Francie...when Jeremy came back, it looked like we was wearing the same clothes he was wearing when he received the boot...I think it all happened the same night and it was edited for drama. I like the name Sunday, too...I bet she's very cute..I wonder if they'll sell off baby pictures for charity. I was happy for them.. I felt sorry for NK with miscarriages and that wacko TC...it's nice to see her happy, at least that's the way it looks on tv ;) Asia - I hope you can get the bike and the car fixed soon. As someone who has spent $2400 on cars in the last few months, I sincerely sympathize with the car trouble :( We just keep telling ourselves, " It's cheaper than buying a new car" Susan- I thought about you when I heard the news story on the unemployment extension.. I'm so glad you get to take advantage of it! Do you have any good leads now? I hope you get a great job, soon. WTG on 152! Mindee - Good Luck on South Beach.. it's great that Tommy is doing it with you. I hear that the worst is the first phase (kind of like Atkins) but then it's not so bad and it's like the Mediterranean diet, which is supposed to be one of the most healthy diets out there. Cristina - make that man of yours take you out and show you off! You are looking great! (I checked out your pics on ms) Today Red Lobster, tomorrow who knows? I owe you a very belated thank you for the lovely card you sent for my bd and anny... I don't think I ever acknowledged them and I'm sorry ...it was such a busy week, but it was so nice of you to think of me :) Hi to Everyone else...I'll get to everyone eventually! My DD started 8 am swimming lessons. It's a great time for her..I noticed she pays attentions better and less goofing off. It does mean we have to get out the door first thing in the a.m. and now that is what I have to do...so have a great day everyone! |
Good morning ladies...Have been busy here, and still am, somewhat. Having dinner tonight for my daughters and their families. Well, all who can make it anyway. I have a big ham cooking and made brownies. I am serving those with ice cream for dessert. That way I won't have any cakes or pies left over to tempt for days and days. :) And kids would rather have brownies and ice cream, so it is win, win.
Mom and I went out driving in the new car earlier. It is fun to drive and comfortable. I still didn't take a picture. Every time I think of it the car is back in the garage...grr. Sounds like everyone is doing great and having a good summer. Getting ready to visit SIL in the hospital...so off I go. Tata for now. (I added my walking for the week-end.) |
Katy~I don't think that is true about Jesse. But then maybe I don't want it to be true, lol. Jeremy sounds like an even bigger jerk if he went there to tell DeAnna that, ya know?? I was totally thinking the same thing about Jeremy's clothes!! I was like.."has he been there since they left?!?!" lol.
Asia~Omg..that sucks so much about the truck & bike!! I can't believe nobody would give you a ride. That's not cool. Congrats on doing 4 miles of WATP!!! Sue~Save some brownies w/ice cream for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LoL!! Well..I had a really weird night. I read "The Host" some more last night, and then I had strange dreams about someone living in my body, LOL!!! And I kept rolling into Fonzo all night long, lol. OH..then this morning, I was having a nightmare..and Fonzo opened the closet door and it made this loud sound and scared the crap out of me...and I jumped out of bed and scared him!! LOL!! I have this horrible pain on the side of my neck. It's been there for 3 days now. I tried doing head rolls, and it doesnt roll all the way over to the left, lol. I need to go to the chiropractor or see a massage therapist. Speaking of massage therapist. I'm on speaking terms with one of my cousins again. (She's a massage therapist, lol). I gave her my new cell phone number..and we've been having friendly little email chats. So ya..we'll see where it goes from there. Okay..time to redo my myspace page. BBL!! The season finale of ****'s Kitchen is tonight!! YAY!! |
Morning -
:dance: yay,,,Jesse!! I was sooooo happy and they looked so good together. I think the Jeremy thing was taped the night he was rejected?? anyway - bbl w/ indi's!! |
Awwwww.....the pic is so cute!!!!!!!!!!!
|
pssst, stop posting Francie! - lol
STOP and POST at BIK THREAD #50!! See ya there :scooter::moped::scooter: |
