Well made it home from vacation in one piece if you can call it that
We all had a blast and even tried Tequilla shots with lime and salt, boy were they good
Got some sun and a nice tan going on right now, weather there was alittle cool first couple of days but then warmed up in the 80's last few days. The wind was awful though, thought I would be leaving that home but it came with us
Holly hope you are feeling better, I know this weekend is huge party weekend and you want to be feeling your best......
Well I haven't got back on track since getting home yesterday and yep gained like 10 pounds over the last month or so, but hopefully half of that will be water weight from all the beer drinking while on vacation
Oh sorry to hear about your dent in your car doesn't that just tick you off when noone will even fess up about it
Roller Derby is such a blast to watch we have all girl groups around here to and it can sometimes be sooooo hilarious !!!
Gina good luck with your certification and all, that is so great!!
Well I am going to bed need to try to catch up on some sleep because I didn't do to much of that for the last 9 days, having to much fun instead
Tomorrow is Friday ---YEAH
Is is good to be back though
good morning and WELCOME BACK REDA!! and a HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MR. AND MRS. MANDY
Glad you had a great time, Reda! ooo, enough sun and warmth to get a tan, that sounds wonderful.
Hi Gina!! Lance Armstrong....can u get his autograph?
good luck in your run, Mandy!
Yep, it is such bad timing to be under the weather right before our big weekend, but I am well dosed up with whatever over the counter stuffI can get, and lots of liquids, and of course Puffs with Lotion (no red nose with them).
We are leaving here tonight at 6:00 pm, going to first pick up a friend in Montpelier at 6:30, then another stop at Albany NY to pick up two more friends that are coming from Ct.! (we have an 8 passenger van) And then driving through to Columbus.
I will check in with you MOnday morning, I guess; as of right now I'm thinking "I can have fun without getting totally drunk"....are those going to be famous last words
Famous last words having fun without getting totally drunk...... It can be done. You will have a blast, I am smiling just thinking about it
Talk to you Monday when you get back
Well it is Sunday and I get to clean up the house, I will probably wait till Daytona 500 starts as racing is what every TV will have on around here today. I don't mind watching some but usually don't sit around to watch the whole race, so I will do some cleaning and watch as I do...
Gonna start back OP today and with exercise, I have really gained over the last few weeks but hopefully most of it is water weight from all the drinking while on vacation..... We will see, I will just have to start plugging away again
Well just wanted to check in, I did get my exercise in today, only 30 minutes but at least it was something....
It was a rough day at work and drained me totally
Came home and decided to get tax returns done for myself & DH, both my boys as they both worked last year. ONe moving out so don't have him as dependent anymore so we get to pay in this year, so advised DH that we both better get an extra $50 per pay check taken out, we both get paid twice a month so an extra $200 a month should hopefully cover it next year, I hope??? Tax time just really sucks the big one.....
Ok enought whining out of me, on a better note
Holly how was your weekend??? We take off for Deadwood on Friday morning, they have an event for Mardi Gras and do the parade and all, even let you take your drinks out of the establishments that night, it was a blast last year.
Well I have been reluctant to sell my Yamaha but advised DH tonight that we should just go ahead and sell it and put that money down on his bike then it will be paid for in about 6 months, then we can work on getting my new bike paid off..... Boy would it be nice to be payment free, does that ever happen????
Ok I will try to log on in the morning before heading off to work, have a great night
good morning chicks!! thank you for those pics Reda, OH that beach looks sooooo beautiful!! What a nice break from winter for you guys
well the weekend seemed to be mostly spent sitting in the van traveling, 14 hours each way! but we did it and the party was great. I wasn't hungover too badly the next morning, so that was good too It was great to visit with people that we ordinarily wouldn't have seen until Labor Day.
Back to the regular schedule, working out and trying to eat well. Because of that lousy headcold last week (just a little junk in the lungs now) I didn't exercise for many days..then going away for the weekend..I haven't skipped that many days in a long time!! but I guess that happens.
Reda, that is good thinking to plan to have that extra $ taken out, so you don't get hit too hard later.
I did quietly confront RaisinFace at work last week, I calmly told her that she and I need to keep our conversations just work related. She has retaliated by not saying a single word to me since. Finally, I get a work perk, that she doesn't blab at me
I have off today and need to do alot of picking up and vacuuming around here. Everybody have a great day!
14 hours that is a long way to travel but like you said when you see everyone it does make it worth it.... Gald to hear you had fun and was able to make the trip home without making a frequent stops
So peace and quiet at work, I will never know what that is like....
Well I should already be at work so better get going, I will check back in later after exercise, trying to get rid of these extra extra pounds I put on this last month
good morning chicks! just a quick check-in, I'll say hey after I work out. OH!! it was light out here, at almost 6:20 am, isn't that great!
-----
okay, finished working out, I did The Biggest Loser Cardio (with Bob only) and then Cathe abs, about 35-40 minutes altogether.
Sun is shining here today, and yesterday was sooo nice, sunny and almost, just almost, warm almost 40! I was able to do errands with just a longsleeved shirt and a light jacket, that was amazing. But winter weather on the way tonight and tomorrow, maybe 4 to 8 inches, bleh. But I feel good 8)
have a great day ladies! I sure hope to hear from some of our absent chicks

I see you have a new Avatar Holly, is that one from this weekend? We have ok weather here lately to, but I guess the snow is coming Friday.....
Had our first Eagles Rider meeting last night, it was an ok turnout but we were missing quite a few that said they were going to make but it didn't. Want to get a couple poker runs and a few dinner rides set up.
I did get my exercise in today but only 30 minutes, but again it is better than nothing. Have a great night

good morning chicks! ugh, it's like 16 out there, not mild as it was yesterday. A few more inches of fresh snow, the tourists and skiiers love it, I just endure it
Just finished doing The Biggest Loser Cardio with Bob, the dvd says it's only 20 minutes but it is a powerful 20 minutes then I did Gilad's abs tape, almost 15 minutes. I haven't done that one in a few weeks, and I really felt an improvement in the moves. Shows that cross-training is the way to go.
I had maybe 300 extra calories last night...I just feel like confessing but I sure enjoyed them.
Okay gotta pack a lunch and get ready for work. Oh, I've started my countdown at the sucky winter job; as of today, I have 10 weeks left. I can do that
good afternoon, where is everyone? OH, ChopperChick had the Deadwood thing this weekend..hope it was great!!!
This morning I did Cathe's Cardio Something, I forget, it must be Cardiac Attack-and-make-you-feel-like-overcoked-pasta-Routine then about 10 minutes of Cathe abs, then I went upstairs and got comfy on the bed and slept from 11 am to 1 pm! i love lazy Saturdays.
