Hiya ladies...

Susan...keeping fingers crossed they let you have Wednesday off.

Francie...so cool! Enjoy tomorrow and renewing your vows.

Mindee...wnjoy your dinner with your neighbors.

Jules...enjoy tomorrow with Ry.

I am officially pooped! And I hve a big honking blister on my foot...too much walking I suppose. Ready for bed but it's way too early. Plus, I have to cook dinner. Will definitely turn in early tonight. I want to be rested for tomorrow...Josh & his family are coming over for an early dinner. Haven't seen much of them since he's been back so it will be nice to see them. Anyway, just wanted to say Hi. I was on early and before I logged off it said something about maintenance...anywho...have a good rest of the weekend!

Sassy - your hubby's job sounds so cool! I can see why you are tempted to follow him over there. Hope you are feeling better...we must have been psychic laundry sisters or something, 'cause that's what I did yesterday! And it ain't done yet...bleh. As far as Christmas goes, pm me your email and I'll send you our annual e-card. That goes for everyone here. I have some emails, but I'm sure I don't have everyone's. I can never get it together for regular cards..I'm so lame....and broke :P

Cristina - hope you had a lovely dinner with Josh and his family. I was really pooped yesterday, too. I snuck in a nap between laundry loads. Not great idea, because I woke up at 4 am today. I really need to get the sleep schedule back on track. Hope you fixed your log in issues. FWIW, I never log out of 3fc and they have never logged me out that I can recall. I use just one computer, so I never bother to log in and out.

Jules - Hiya Sounds like you are having a busy weekend. Hope Teri's visit went well.

Francie - have a great time renewing your vows! It looks like so much fun.

Susan- hope you can get the t/o for your training. It was a great weekend for the zoo. Leigh keeps bugging me a bout going, but we get too busy. Need to just drop everything and go.


Mindee - wow that's quite a walk...good for you!

Well, I have been slacking on exercise this week, so I hope to get to the gym today for the zumba class. I should be able to get to the gym more this week. I need to, my back hurts Other than that today is pretty uneventful.. We have church this morning and I need to finish laundry...so exciting Have a great day everyone

Cristina==hope the blister gets better quick. How did dinner go? Was that cute little Cambrie there??

Sassy--Teri and Ry both loved Forgeting Sarah Marshall--they said it was hilarious too. I sent you a pm with my email & addy. Send me your s back.

Katy--the boy definitely keeps us busy!! It's suppossed to get to the high 50's and be sunny so I am going to hang out all the bedstuff one last time for the season. I love the way line dried sheets smell!!

Making baked sweet potatoes today--Dominics fave. I have some veggie chicken nuggets and fresh brocoli to go with it. Dominic wants real food. Hubby is on a no meat kick again to see if it gets his gout to settle down. Lots of veggies work for me--I just have to watch the amount of cheeses used. Cheese is probablt my biggest weekness and when hubby gets on the vegetarian kick...I seem to fall back into alot of cheese dishes. I can always make them something and eat a little along with alot of veggies. Since it's turning colder, I do tend to make more soups & chili.

OKay..so we decided not to renew our vows. We felt kinda weird about it since it wasnt on our actual anniversary date, lol. So Fonzo wants to renew them next year for our 5th. He thinks it will be cool to renew them every 5 years.

Sassy~That sounds like sooooo much fun!!! I would love to send out cards. And do the exchange too. OH..And we went to see Forgetting Sarah when it first came out in theatres..and omfg..that movie was just effin hilarious!! Fonzo saw it twice in theatres, lol. We bought the movie too. We're like ALWAYS qouting it too, lol.

Jules~What does veggie chicken nuggets taste like???? I've always wanted to try that kind of food..but Fonzo is like totally against it, lol. He's like.."be a man and eat REAL meat" LoL!!

Yesterday was pretty fun. It took us basically all day to leave the house, lol. We ended up needing to go to the bank to pull out some money..and we got stuck in football traffic by the base. Omg..what a mess that was. Plus, I was totally jealous that I didnt know about the game. I soooooooo wanna go to one. And since the Navy/Army game is sold out this year, I wanna have a football party and invite some friends over to watch the game. I wanna deck the whole place out with Navy stuff. Fonzo was all for watching the game (any chance to pull out the hookah, lol)..but he didnt seem too sure about all the Navy stuff in here, lol. But whatever..I decorate the home, not him, lol. I wanna go to the NEX to buy a blue & gold scarf today and maybe something else.

Oh so back to last night, lol. Fonzo bought his costume!!! He's gonna be like a goth vampire. It's gonna be soooooooooo awesome!!! I cannot wait for Halloween!!!!

We also saw Sex Drive last night. Omg too freakin funny!!!! It kinda reminded me of my generations American Pie, LOL!!! Only a little less raunchy. We saw the preview for Twilight and everyone in the theatre basically flipped out!! I cannot wait to go see it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Anyhoo..is everyone trying to lose 10 pounds by Christmas?? Am I the only one trying to lose 5?? I feel like a loser now, lol.

Happy early Sunday morning,

I am off to work , hi ho hi ho.

I burned myself on the iron, amazing how nasty it looks when the iron only touched for a split second.

Thanks for all the well wishes on getting off Wednesday. I mean. I AM off Wednesday regardless of what she says ,...lol. The rehab is my primary job since it is full time and has somewhat of a future w/ excellent benefit *sniff*...I just need to go in there and be firm and if she would ever so kindly give me Wednesday off. PLLLLLLEEEEEEAAAASSSSEEEEEEEE.

Francie - My ex , the one that was into tattoo's was also into the Renaissance Festival's. Sweet about renewing your wedding vows every 5 years!! And 5 pounds is SOMETHING and you want to be a LOSER...haha. ..also, Mindee is at 30 pounds so we are all slacking compared to her.

Sassy - Like the idea of the card/ gift exchange! I think my legs are sore from moving the queen size bed across the room to vaccum. I feel so old .lol

Jules - My mom says I can eat all the cheese I want, no carbs. Her doctor has recommended Atkins to her so she is all gung ho on all the fat she can eat. lmbo. I favor the low calorie, low fat way of eating. Super that Dominic is getting in the habit of eating veggies!

Katy - It was so beautiful on the drive from the coast to Portland. SW is especially colorful around the park area and I think Thursday night Gaby even said something about the sunset over the park. Do you make a trip to Sauvies Is and the pumpkin patch?? I really need to make a trip back in for that before Halloween.

Cristina - I bet you look lovely with a big honking blister on your foot! lol Hope you have a nice dinner w/ Josh and family Get some rest!!

oops, out of time! Hi to Asia , Sue and Tammy!

I weighed 148 this morning, it is UP on the ticker but down from last week, I just never changed it. lol So, yay to that. I am trying to get the water in and what a pain THAT is.....better get.

Susan~Ren. Festivals are hella fun!!! I used to love getting that ribbon thing braided into my hair. I still have the charm from when I was 16. I had to cut it off for prom though. I used to have a wax rose too. But of course, my lovely kitties broke it. Mindee has nothing on us!! LoL!! She can be our Queen Bee!!!

I found an officant for the vow renewal ceremony (ya, I like to plan ahead, lol). She's in MD. And its only like 250 bucks. Which is like less my own wedding dress was, lol. I'm just thinking of some ideas. And since we were supposed to be married outside, but ended up having it indoors. I would like to have it outside. But the thing is..we got married in freakin cold December. I was thinking it would be soooooooo cool to do it on the beach, but it would probably be beyond freezing. Then I thought it would be awesome to have it at one of the gazebos on base. But Fonzo said he's not sure if they would let us. And again..what about the cold? LoL!! I wonder how cold it gets here in December..I feel cheated cuz I never got my outside wedding. Stupid rain in Az!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sassy~Sorry you feel icky again. Try and take it easy!!!! OH...and I loved the breakfast in bed..tyvm LoL!! Plus, I'm drinking coco right now. Yum!! You should follow your dh there. It sounds really great!! OH..I PMed my info to you.

And anyone please PM me if you want a card too!!! I love sending out cards!!!!!

My last post........and I will go to bed........I promise. lol. YVW for the breakfast in bed, glad you enjoyed it! lol. Okay I am going now...................really I am going...................now I am going..........................



I'm really really leaving now...................lol!!!

Sassy--yw for the pm. Sorry your still not feeling well. Ry has quite the collection of icky green, yellow and orange Mr Roger's cardigan sweaters. If it's an unusaual color...he loves it...

Francie--veggie food is hit or miss--Hubby grew up vegetarian so it is easier on him than me, Teri actually eats more veggie meat than real meat, but Ry is like Fonzo--meat over veggies any day. With me they are hit or miss but are only 1 or 2 WW points. I like the Morningstar products--try a local Giant store if you have one. The things I like the best are the fake sausage links & patties, grillers & the black bean burgers. Grillers and Strips (fake burgers and bacon grow on you) and even Ry will eat the chick patties. There's a brand called Quorn that has "naked chicken cutlets" that I like and I bought a Boca bruschetta burger to try. You should check out the Ocean City tourism site--alot of people get married on the beach there.

Suzyq--Dominic loves sweet potatoes and regular potatoes made into anything for that matter. Ry loved his veggies when he was young--but not so much anymore. I made the switch from Coke to diet Coke and now I am trying to switch to more water...I just don't hardly drink period...but i luv water..I luv water...i luv water.....

well off to get Dominic to take a nap....

Francie - I suppose the festivals can be fun, he was odd though so maybe I need to forget what a creep he was?? lol
Mindee can be the Queen Bee, we will be the Slacker Sisters.

Jules- I luv water too, just not when I am TOM and have to go all the time. I loev sweet potatoes' too. Gaby loves mash potatoes, I don't think she would eat anything orange. lol

Sassy - Thank you for breakfast too! I have your address, Jules, Cristina's and Katy's. Maybe it might be easier if Cristina sends out the list of addresses?? I would be surprised if she doesn't have them all. Hope you are feeling better

Cristina - Like how I volunteer you when you aren't around? lol

Mindee- k- Queen Bee where are you?? Hope you and the family are having a great weekend....

Asia & Tammy....come chat ladies!


I miss my Gaby so I am going home. Worked 6 hours and I asked the manager for Wednesday off and she was very nice about it and said sure.
So, I don't know what you were all worried about. haha. Umm, I find it hard to be assertive, I almost have to get pissed off to get ask for something.

anyway, so that is good news......I offered to work tomorrow but they seemed covered,...it is payday though! yay.

k-off to see gaby and clean up and fix something to eat.

Chat later.

Queen Bee reporting for duty!

we went to bed early these past couple of nights. Last night I was in bed, by midnight, and I just sat there watching tv for a little bit, then fell asleep.

I got up this morning at 9:44, and I started to freak out a little bit. For some reason, I thought today was Monday because Tommy wasn't in bed next to me. So, I got up and went to the bathroom, then came out into the living room and saw Tommy sitting on the computer. He said "go back to bed for a little bit more." So, you didn't have to tell me twice.

I want to renew our wedding vows. But we have agreed to do them at our 10th anniversary if we have the money, and the will be in 2012.

dinner last night was good. we then hung out and watched some tv with our neighbors, then they went home, the kids went to bed, and then we went to bed after we finished watching "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry."

we are having dinner again tonight with our neighbors so it should be fun! then it will be bath night for the kids, then bed time!

Jules~ I PM'd you my information!

anybody else, feel free to PM me your information and I will do the same!

Anyhoo I ate quite terribly but I am back and I am on. I have got to loose this 15 by xmas. I want to loose it by tomarrow!! LOL. Its gotta be short because I have a test in my class tomorrow that I have got to study for. I missed yall!!! My shins hurt so bad because we walked so much!!!
