Hi All....bye all......:wave:

Good morning, ladies...

SUSAN...hoping you get the apt.! Have fun school shopping. Sounds like you guys are getting the hot weather we had last week and the week before. We've had the cool temps and it is nice, finally! I've not heard anything from Jules...hoping all is well with her. Yeah, Cambrie keepes me on my toes...she NEEDS constant attention. I don't mind it, just I like my quiet time and my computer time, lol. Not good grandma material here.

SASSY...hi & bye, lol! :lol:

MINDEE...your big day is almost here! Are you still having the angel food cake with strawberries? Hoping they do something about your floor...that is ridiculous. Shouldn't be any hesitation on their part to fix something that could be a possibly lawsuit if not fixed.

FRANCIE...moving day is fast approaching! I know you guys are excited and will have an amazing trip, or unforgetful anyway. I like your necklace...my DD was into dolphins, glad you found it. Glad to hear you liked the movie...me and DD are going to go see it next week, thinking Monday.

KATY...I think they did read our minds, hehe. I've been telling DD that for a while now...not that I am an expert or anything. But just because a person is skinny, does not make them healthy.

ASIA...I too like the butterfly tattoo idea. How's the competition coming along?

SUE...well, I am sorry that you have to go thru that and I hear ya. DS had one attack and they took his gallbladder out...ONE attack. I dealt with the pain for years because they kept saying I had an ulcer and it is no fun. Of course it just stopped for years but when it came back...it came back full force and I thought I was going to die! Maybe one day soon they will find out what it is so you won't have to go thru the pain anymore. :crossed: WTG on the clothes, the pound and the biking & walking! :carrot:

HIYA TAMMY & JULES! :wave:

I probably should get going...I think Cambrie is driving V nuts, lol. He is not used to little kids and does not have the patience. But he is the grandpa so...:lol:

Did get my walk in today and it is so much better when it is in the 60's. Going to take my recycling later and go to the used bookstore. Then Charlotte will be over and guess Chase is staying the weekend, that was the plan last I heard. Glad V is home to keep him company...he's older so I can actually leave the room and he will be ok while I get on the computer. I will check back later.

Have a good day!

It is another beautiful day here. I love Summer when the humidity is low, temps. in the 70's and breezes. I could enjoy this year round!

I put on another pair of size 12 capris this morning and a smaller T shirt. (large vs. Xlarge) The scales can "kiss my grits!"
My aunt yesterday asked me if I had lost weight...so there scales!

Okay...I just came in to impart that info and now have to go to the eye Dr. I would rather take a beating. Ugh...

Well I have some news.

So the movers were supposed to do an inspection today. But the guy ended up doing that and started packing up all the small stuff. So ya..me & the cats have been put in the bedroom to stay out of the way, lol. Actually..I'm in charge of packing all the stuff we're taking with us, lol. So thats what I did. Now I'm just sitting here.

Anyhoo...so on monday, they're gonna come and pack up the big stuff. So that means we wont be sticking around here until the 21st like we had planned. We thought they would be doing all the packing next week. Guess we were wrong. So we're either gonna leave WA on monday night or early the next day. The sooner the better I guess right?

I'm just so sad right now. I didnt think this was gonna happen today. I was preparing myself for next week. Not TODAY!!! I seriously wanna cry. I feel so rushed and stressed out right now...

Okay..Fonzo just brought me a McGriddle so I'm gonna go eat my breakfast, lol.

Good Morning -

It is 10:44 and already 80 degree's. It was a miserable night , I don't think we fell asleep til 2am.
UP on the scale, kind of knew that. Kind of know you can't drink a bottle of wine and think you are going to be oaky doky. I mean, you are,,,but not on the scale. Cheers!:cheers::cheers::cheers:

If you want to be a personal reference (for me- duh) on these apt's let me know!! I would need your telephone number. You can say you have known me for years through a weight improvement program. *cough and I don't cause any problems...lol, at least not too much. hehe. And I read Patterson books all night long but otherwise am a very quite, nice tenant!!! So, if you wanna lie for me , let me know. lmao. This is for the Warrenton townhouse, I need to fax it back this afternoon.

*sigh

Sue - yay, you are the incredible shrinking lady!And I agree about the scales, what do they know??? You are doing great.

Cristina - I like my quite and computer time too. I so should not be a mother. lol my step dad is the same way w/ Gaby, he loves her up for a certain time and after that we have to leave. lol

Francie - :hug::hug::hug: don't get too stressed. Moving is a major event, and cross country to boot! Just take it easy and relax. You can spray the kitty stuff now. lol You will be fine :)

Mindee- thanks, I wouldn't know what to do w/ a w/d....it would be so fun to have the machines in the house. I could wash 24/7. haha

Sassy- :wave:

hi to everyone else....I better get to the store before it gets way too hot to be driving. Planning on drinking lots of water and nothing after 6pm. I think I just need time to drain my bladder. I am sure I am not 155......I just need to drain. :dizzy::dizzy:lol

tata

just popping in right now.........

I have to redo my music playlist on my myspace page because some songs got added on there that I never put on there. and logan is probably tearing apart the bedroom.......but other then that nothing really new!

Tommy wrote out a list of stuff that we will need to get for my party and he has on there angel food cake mix and strawberries! so we are still on for that! he was going to buy my an Oreo Pie from a local pie company. I like the thought, and they say that it does count, but he knows that I am trying to lose weight, so it made me want to look at him and say "what in the he!! are you thinking?" But I just told him no thank you, and that I had already told him what I wanted for my birthday.

Omg...the movers have been here since 8am..and its almost 5pm...I'm sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooo tired and hungry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!! I just wanna take a shower and go to sleep.

SUZYQ...I would have lied for you, lol...sorry I didn't get back on sooner, I would have been a reference for you. Hey, if you need one again, or next time let me know. Keeping my fingers crossed that you get it. :crossed:

SUE...WTG! on your smaller self! :bravo:

FRANCIE...hugs to you missy. :hug: :hug:Try not to get too stressed and if you need to cry just do it! It's always good to get it out. Hope they finally left and you got some rest.

MINDEE...are you celebrating tomorrow or Sunday? The cake sounds yummy and WTG on passing up the orea pie! :carrot:

So we traded kids, lol. Cambrie went home and Chase stayed and I have three hairs left on my head! Why is it kids will listen to the nana but the minute the mommy is around all he!! breaks loose and they act like little demons! Can you tell I love kids, lol? Okay, I really do, honest...but some days I don't want to be around any. So DS & DD have reminded me that some of the things the kids do or did I would have never let them do so there will be rules to follow from now on and if they don't like then oh well. Anyway...guess I will see if there is a movie to see tomorrow, and take Chase.

I'll be up at the crack of dawn to go for my walk and hopefully get in a dvd later in the day. My eating and exercise this past week has been HORRIBLE! I am afraid to weight tomorrow but I will. Just suck it up and move on...that's all I can do. Well, and get back on track which I am, so...

Will chat tomorrow. Take care ladies, nighty, night!

FRANICE...I love the avatars in your signature, makes me think of the song, Life is a Highway...love that song no matter who sings it!

Cristina- You are so funny! I would have lied for you too :) You and V are very sweet to have the kids, my mom doesn't even do that for me w/ Gab. Seeing the scale go back up gets me anxious, I really could have been at goal this month but now I am just trying to get it back to 150. You are right though, just suck it up and keep plugging along. You're kicking a$$ regardless what the scale might say. :)

Francie - awww, sweetie, go to sleep! I hope you weren't in your bedroom since 8am?? lol I hope the movers finally left.

Katy - Thanks :) Hope you are surviving this heat!

I am at the ex's and I am going home w/ Gab now. We will go to the coast tomorrow. I have 2 appts to look inside of some places. I faxed over the one and she will meet me at 4pm.
I also have a 2 o'clock at the one w/ the bathroom in the one bedroom and you have to go thru the bedroom to get to it. I was thinking tonight that could be icky or workable. I COULD make the bedroom a living room and the living room a bedroom. lol Put up those Chinese screens ....it could be kind of cute. I don't know. I will see what it looks like tomorrow. It keeps me on the Astoria side and closs to a laundromat & park...lol...and I do like the idea of no carpet. I could get some throw rugs , cleaner to me, especially w/ a little one.

k- I am sure that inspired you all to lose weight. Works for me. lol

night, lord turn off this heat!! :sunny:

doing my pop in kind of later then usual, since Miss "I don't want to sleep" had to go out for a walk. so we went twice around the complex, then came back home, and after I laid her back in bed, I do some arm exercises and some crunches.

I really should be in bed since the kids will be up early, and I will be the one running the show since Tommy has to work until noon. Then when he gets home and cleaned up we are going out to the Dream Cruise. (a HUGE car show where they basically block up one of the main roads with a TON of old cars, either for show or on the road) It is a lot of fun, and it always seems to happen the weekend of my birthday.

come to find out, my one sister whose daughter was born on the 20th of this month, is having her birthday party on Sunday. mind you, she never told us about it, I found out from one of my sisters that I invited over here. so needless to say, none of my family will be at my party on Sunday. Which really pisses me off, but it just goes to show that even though I am the baby of us older girls, being the baby doesn't mean squat!

SuzieQ~ Good luck with the walk through basically! Let us know how it goes and what it looks like!

Francie~ Ok, it is now 2:20am on the East Coast, I hope the movers are out of your place by now!

Cristina~ Thanks for the nice words. We are celebrating on Sunday.

Okay..I was just typing away and the stupid thing went to another page. WTF!!! So now I'm a little angry and dont feel like writing all that out again, lol.

So long story short. The movers left at 5..I didnt stay in the room all day, cuz they had to pack in here. The other movers are coming on monday to load everything up into the moving truck. I have to go through the boxes to find my jeans, flat iron, and big purse.

Okay..thats it, lol.




Cristina~whenever i look at the icons..i think of that song from sheryl crow..."everyday is a winding road" i dunno if thats what its called though.

I found this today...

Hiya ladies...

FRANCIE...that is the name of the song...love that one too! I have to say though, after seeing them and thinking of the Life is a Highway song, it stuck in my head for hours! It's in there again, lol! I took Chase to see The Mummy today and they have a new cartoon/movie called Fly Me To The Moon and that stuck in my head the whole time there, lol! What can I say...I am goofy :dizzy: Oh, thanks for the link, going to have to keep it all in mind when shopping.

SUSAN...hoping you get the apt. Hey, I think turning the bedroom into a living room sounds good. Whichever one you get, I know it will look cute! You know, I am trying to be a good grandma...some days I don't think it's working.

MINDEE...that kind of sux big time that your sis scheduled a party on YOUR day. Wonder why she didn't do it the weekend after yours? Regardless...try to enjoy your day and celebrate you on your special day. A very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you tomorrow!

Hi to everyone else :wave:

WI wasn't as bad as I thought it would be...I am up but only .5, so not so bad. I was worried for nothing. Just was a very bad week of eating all around and I won't be doing that again!

Nighty, night ladies :wave:

just a quick one from me, since I am sunburnt (somewhat) and really exhausted!

we went to the dream cruise on Saturday and had a blast! then we left and went to my sisters house for a birthday party for my dad. we got a couple of things from my sister and then came home. we got home and some friends of ours were outside, so we yelled at them, and they invited us over, but of course I had to get Brandon to sleep so I didn't make it over there. but Tommy invited them over for my party.

I probably should get to bed since I have to make some coleslaw, and my cake on Sunday. I wanted an angel food cake with strawberries for my birthday, BUT Walmart didn't have the angel food cake mix so I got a funfetti cake and funfetti frosting.

Francie~ I hope every thing goes well with the move!

Cristina~ thank you for the card, and the birthday wishes on here. I don't have an issue with my sister having the party on my birthday, I just have an issue with her having the party and NOT inviting us. Oh yeah, this isn't the first time that this has happened either!
