Back In Kindergarten #70
 
Hello & :welcome2: to the Back In Kindergarten thread!

"I feel like I am back in kindergarten in many ways... personal, sometimes at work and now with the weight loss. I have done so many things wrong over the years.....emotional eating, pills for weight loss, eating the wrong things, failed diets, etc.
Now it's time to start fresh, kinda like back in kindergarten......"



Feel free to join us in our chatter about life and our weight loss journey!
So please grab your coffee/water/diet coke etc. and pull up a chair and join us!

Shopaholic1204 01-21-2009 04:37 PM

I finished The Reader. It was good, the ending took me by surpise. I want to watch the movie now. I'm going to start another book tonight. But for now I'm just gonna enjoy my time alone with Fonzo. Angel is at work right now. So its just me & the hubby alone for a couple of hours, lol. Angel works again on friday..and Fonzo has that day off. YAY!!! Friday is our 6 year anniversary. I cant believe I've been with that boy for 6 years, lol.

tommysgirl18 01-21-2009 05:36 PM

just popping back in here to see how every one is doing...

the kids are watching Fireman Sam again.......Tommy is making dinner......and I am putzing around on here.

Tomorrow Brandon has his follow up with the ENT, so that should be interesting to see how that goes.

FrouFrou 01-21-2009 06:01 PM

Hello...

SUSAN...THANK YOU for starting the new thread, very much appreciated! :hug: :thanks: Kids, they know how to get what they want don't they? Cambrie twisted my arm yesterday when I ran to Wal-mart for milk...went home with a freaking toy grocery cart and puzzle, lol. She wanted more and I told her no, that's more than enough. Gotta love 'em though eh?! How is Gaby liking the new school and swimming? I know she did swimming before, so apparently she loves it, duh! Yeah, I think it would get a little boring, eating salads after a while. I think that is one of my problems, I get bored with eating the same thing day in and day out.

JULES...hugs to you missy. I don't know why some people thrive off the drama. Hope it gets better at work. :hug: :hug:

ASIA...Ernie dog is our puppy dog. Well, we call him puppy dog but he is actually 13 1/2 years-old, lol. Still our baby and now he is miliking it, lol...dog is smart! I've not gone online and checked out the challenge yet but I do plan to. Is there a time frame for it, and for you for your 16 or 17 pounds? Sorry, I forgot how much you were aiming to lose.

MINDEE...hoping Tommy isn't lifting anything heavy, he should take it easy still since it's not even been a week. Glad the kids are feeling better.

SUE...thinking of you and your mom. Hoping she is feeling better and glad she is home now...there's no place like home!

KATHY...I think we need more hours in the days, but then we would just have more time to work wouldn't we? Hoping all is well with you.

TAMMY...hoping you are feeling better sweetie and hope if you're not at home that you will be soon! :hug:

FRANCIE...I've not heard of that book/movie. But I am thinking I may want to see the movie that is out now, can't think of the name...Revoluntionary Road or something like that???? Hope you get the day with Fonzo Friday.

KATY...when will your hubby be back, hoping he had a great time!

Not a lot going on with me. I was up early and got the majority of my exercise done. I have a 30 minute walk left to do...thinking I will break it up into two walks...feeling sleepy. Took Cambrie to preschool and then DS came home from his trip to FL and offered to take me to lunch so I couldn't resist. Actually, I could but didn't. There went my flex points for the week, lol. Maybe not, I've not figured them out yet. Even if it took all of them that's okay...just means I HAVE to stay within my daily points. Anyway...

Take care :hug:

suetalks 01-21-2009 11:35 PM

Thanks for the good wishes for mom. She is home, even though they said after her blood work that she still has the virus in her system. She had the same virus that causes mono...so Dr. said she would be wiped out for awhile. I am so glad I took her to the ER. They got her heart meds. back on track and hydrated her.

I cleaned house, and did another load of laundry this morning. DH swept all the hard surface floors and I did the carpets. He knew I was pooped. Eight hours at the hospital Mon. and again Tues. Don't know why that tires me out. Luckily today they had her ready almost as soon as I got there. She and I booked home pretty fast.

Bad news is...after our trip and the hospital I am no where near my goal for the challenge, and have not lost a bit. That good old stress.....ugh. I need a week of eating salads every day...and I could do that...or cereal. I love both.

Grocery shopping and Wal- Mart tomorrow, so maybe I will plan a few meals. I need to tell DH I am not cooking for a week....lol. That would go over big. (actually, a month would get me a good start)

Okay...off to bed and see if I can rest now that Mom is back under my roof. I worry, then can't sleep. I bet I sleep well tonight.

tommysgirl18 01-21-2009 11:36 PM

stopping back in to see how every one is doing.......putzing around online before heading to bed. I already called in to the school and the bus for Brandon. I think that he is happy for his appointment because I told him that he could come home and take a nap if he wanted to.

SuzieQ~ Thank you for starting a new thread! I was going to but then dinner was ready, so I didn't get a chance to.

Cristina~ Nope, he isn't lifting anything too heavy. He has me yelling at him to not lift anything heavy!

Sue~ It is good to hear that your mom is back home. I had Mono my senior year in high school....so I know what your mom is going through. she will be weak for about a week or two.

Shopaholic1204 01-21-2009 11:54 PM

Cristina~Here's the movie: http://www.thereader-movie.com/ And here's the book: http://www.amazon.com/Reader-Movie-T...2599728&sr=8-1 I do want to see Revolutionary Road too. I love Leo & Kate!!! I was so happy when Kate Winslet won the 2 Golden Globes!!! She's a great actress. Have you seen one her first movies, Heavenly Creatures?? That was such a good movie!!! And of course Sense and Sensabilty. I made my mom watch that movie 20 billion times, LOL!! I just love Kate Winslet!!!

FrouFrou 01-22-2009 08:37 AM

Good morning, chickies...

SUE...glad your mom is home and on the mend. Don't worry about the challenge..do what you can do, you still have time. :hug: I think I will quit cooking for a week too!

MINDEE...glad Tommy is doing well too and on the mend.

FRANCIE...thanks for the link, I want to see that movie now! Never saw Heavenly Creatures...I don't think, will have to look it up and see. I see so many movies and can't remember some until I go to watch it and then remember that I did indeed see it already, lol. I have seen Sense and Sensibilty...and I too love Kate Winslet and was VERY happy to see her finally win!!!

JULES...hoping you have a drama free day!

Hiya to everyone else :wave:

I didn't have to get up early and go get C but I decided to get up ealry anyway. I wanted to start the day off with some exercise before jumping in the shower. She's not coming over today, well, until later. She had an infection on her finger and it is back so J is taking her to the doc and then will bring her over after. Gives me the morning to get what I need to get done. Which is grocery shopping, and then take some things back to Penney's, and exercise in peace of course, lol. It is supposed to be 62 today so later on when she gets here I will take her on that bike ride she didn't get in the other day. So I will get in 1 1/2 miles there and I am walking the treadmill this morning. Already did one walk and getting ready to do another. Hoping to get in 5 miles today. :crossed: I'll check back later.

Have a great day!

RosieKate 01-22-2009 09:18 AM

Good morning!

Hubby made it home ok..very smooth flight, no delays. He was tired, but had the time of his life...all worth it!
Now we have the news that his grandma is in the hospital with congestive heart failure and we are just hanging by the phone for daily updates. She's stable on oxygen, but not improving.

Cristina- let's all quit cooking, lol! I seem to be eating salads anyway...guess the kids might like something different once in awhile :D

Francie - I read The Reader for our book group and thought it was very good. We had a long discussion about whether the relationship could be truly consensual...the perspective of the author seemed to be one of someone who had been abused. I think the book leaves one wondering, don't you think? I want to see the movie... I think Kate Winslett is excellent casting!

Sue - glad your mom is doing better.. I had mono in college - NO FUN. I'm with Cristina - we all picked our own challenges, so just do what works for you. I haven't stuck to mine religiously, so I'm tweaking it.

HI to Susan, Mindee, Kathy, Asia, Jules, and Tammy! Hope i got everyone, if not - HI to you, too!

I'd do more indys but I have to go get Leigh up for school. Woke up to 171 and change, so the holiday pounds are coming off. That really should have been my goal all along, though I am still focused on keeping my carbs to 100. I just am not doing it everyday. My produce gets delivered today, so I am going to renew my efforts.

Have a great day, everyone!

Mom2Gaby 01-22-2009 01:38 PM

Good Morning!

I am sooooooo proud of my turkey meatballs that I made this morning ......


.....no that is not an actual picture (though if I had time......haha).....when I work at 11am I try and get some dinner started and this morning it is like "what will Gaby eat??" She is such a picky eater. I know she will eat meatballs and mash potatoes. I used some of the ground turkey and mixed it w/ a meatloaf mix.

anyway, I probably sound ******ed but I don't cook....and omg, I did this morning!! lol Now I figure I can have turkey meatball salads for the next few days. :dizzy:

Cristina- sorry about Cambrie's finger! Hope she is ok and Ernie is feeling better now that he is home. Wow to your 5 miles!! You GO!! I will just sit back and watch. ;) Gaby loves her school and the swimming. When I get paid next week I am going to sign her up for t-ball, think she will like that. I have to shop for a doctor for her, she has Blue Cross w/ her fathers insurance. I found a female Dr. on the list of preferred so I just need to call. And you know I bought her a $12 playmobil and all she wanted was the horse it the kit......Playmobil is way to expensive!

Katy - :hug:, sorry to hear about DH's grandmother but glad he had a safe trip. Good for you on 171!

Francie - I want to see Revolutionary Road too, I was almost going to see it w/ Beck but she decided on Bride Wars, maybe next time. I am almost done w/ Conversations and still like it! :) Have to check out The Reader next.

Mindee - Good luck w/ the ENT (is it IEP???) tomorrow. Now that Gab has BC/BS I need to call back the speech lady and see if she will take that insurance. Sometimes small towns are a pain. lol anyway, hope Tommy is healing ok.

Sue- :hug::hug: to you and your mom.....sounds like you need some rest, hope you get that today.

:wave: to everyone else!

I better get to work. It is a beautiful day here on the coast, almost feels like spring. I still don't want Gaby at school too early playing outside (they play from 7:45 to 8:15) so I plan on getting there right as they are called in the school. Gab had a friggin melt down this morning when she saw the 3rd graders being called in. "You never let me play!! I want to play!! Now I can only play outside 2 times!!" and she holds up her fingers to show me what 2 looks like...*eyes roll* whatever....what kid needs to be playing outside before 8am?? Not mine. lmbo

Adios and wish you all a good day :wave:

sz2atheart 01-22-2009 02:58 PM

I'm back!!!


Well barely. Got home from the hospital about 7 last night and got immediately into the shower. I was so worn out. Still feeling crappy but slept pretty well last night. Don't know when I'll get back to work, maybe next Thur,Fri. Have a doc appt on Monday and will decide then. Wow, this is the sickest I've ever been. My history of asthma is what really put me under, I'm sure. Without it, I might have been able to handle it better. This was a first for me. Never imagined almost a week in the hospital. I had to beg to get out last night. Promise to do nearly nothing at home! Well, needless to say, after being on the computer half the day, washing my hair, making a sandwich for lunch, I am totally exhausted and hacking my head off more. In a minute, I'm heading for the comfy recliner, cover up with my dogs and snooze a little.

Cristina: so happy to hear that Ernie dog is on the mend. God, I missed my boys, Cody has not been off my lap all day.

Mindee-glad that Tommy had his surgery and is on the mend.

Sue--Hope your mom continues to do better. That running back and forth to the hospital is no fun. Dh was quite moody last night after getting me back home. I know he was tired of all the running.

Hugs to everyone else. Going to lay down now, will check back later.

tommysgirl18 01-22-2009 03:55 PM

well, we are back from the ENT. Brandon has to go back in two months because he had some negative pressure in both ears. So, the ENT wants to check him again then. He said that it isn't enough to cause concern right now, which is why he wants to check him in two months.

then we took the kids to the mall to let them burn off some energy at the play area. then we stopped for a pretzel, and then went on to walmart to pick up some stuff. then came home and it is nap time, although the only one not napping is Logan. although I hear Brandon crying right now, so I am sure that Logan did something to him!

I am so ready for a nap, but now both boys are awake and Tommy is napping on the couch.

FrouFrou 01-22-2009 04:47 PM

Another quick HI, lol...it's not funny...just I meant to get here sooner and didn't realize the time..can't miss my Jeopardy, lol. Sorry ladies, I love ya but my Jeopardy comes first...kidding of course, I think. I'll be back a little later. J still hasn't brought Cambrie over but did just get off the phone and they are waiting for Chase to get home then going to get some meds for her finger and then will be over. Anywho...I'll be back later this evening, after dinner. Hugs :hug:

wildthing 01-22-2009 10:34 PM

Hey Ladies!!!!! I am really excited about my biggest looser challenge. You have to put in your weightloss by may 5th at the latest. I have not budged on the scales. I think that i am not drinking enough and I am not eating enough fiber. I am gonna try to up my water and fiber and then see how that goes. Well I just have time for a quick one. Sorry ladies. I have to go.

FrouFrou 01-22-2009 10:52 PM

Susan..your meatballs look delicious, lol, and sound good too! Gaby will love t-ball...so much fun watching the kids play. Weird that the kids get to play for 30 minutes before school...how do they know if someone goes missing? Of course I would think of that...paranoid momma I am.

Katy...I wish I could not could for a week! It would be great for me! Glad the hubby is back home and enjoyed his trip! Sorry to hear about DH's grandma, hugs to the family :hug: :hug: Good job on getting those holiday pounds off! :carrot:

Asia...I didn't realize the challenge was until May. For some reason I was thinking till this show/season is over.

Mindee...ENT...for the life of me I couldn't remember what it was/where Brandon was going. Hoping it's not anything.

Tammy...so glad to see you back!!! :hug: Glad you are home and feeling better...a shower always works wonders doesn't it? Get well soon missy :hug:

Jules...hoping today was a good day for ya.

Hi to everyone else :wave: Hoping all is well with you all.

I am pooped. Too much running around tires me out...more than exercising or walking. Cambrie is here and out like a log thank goodness. Think they filled her up on caffeine before they brought here, lol...she was bouncing off the walls!!!

Did get my 5 miles in today, a little over that..that is probably another reason I feel pooped! At least I will sleep good tonight.

No plans for tomorrow other than getting the little girl off to preschool and some exercise done.

Take care ladies, nighty, night!

tommysgirl18 01-23-2009 12:00 AM

had to stop by to see how every one is doing.....

I am tired, but I think that has to do with the medicine I took to get rid of this cold! Brandon is doing well with his medicine, Marissa's cough has gotten a little better then it was....but I gave her a breathing treatment about an hour ago.

I am going to check the rest of my email and then off to bed.

Shopaholic1204 01-23-2009 12:59 AM

Just stopping by to say that today is our 6 year anniversary!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Too bad Fonzo is all sicky right now, lol.

Sassy_Chick 01-23-2009 07:36 AM

HOLA!!!!!!!!

Just stopping in to say that I am sooooo Happy! :cp:

All this time I had thought I was like 35 pounds HEAVIER than I actually was! :fr:

Our scale came yesterday and I have been totally dreading getting weighed, but I did this morning and I was totally shocked! Not only that but after being weighed and figuring out that I was not as fat as I thought, I about ran into the bedroom to try on the jeans that I put up because I had not been able to fit into them. So I put them on and guess what? THEY FIT! :woohoo:

OMG it feels SOOOOOO good! :D I know I still have a LONG way to go yet, but this just made me feel so much better! Like hey, I can do this! :cp:

So I just wanna say Thank You to each and every one of you for listening to me whine and moan and groan and still stick with me! You ALL are totally AWESOME people!

I uploaded the pictures of me in my JEANS on my myspace page, please ignore my hair as I just got up about an hour ago! lol. I was just too dang excited to wait until I got to fix my hair and all! lol. I will have DH take another picture once I look better! LOL. Oh and I also uploaded the pictures of the house we are going to most likely rent, we make it "official" next week.

Anyways, I just had to share! :D

P.S. -- I FINALLY made an appt. with my gyn!!!! It is Feb. 25th!!! ;)

BIG :hug:

FrouFrou 01-23-2009 08:45 AM

Francie...a very Happy Anniversary to you and Fonzo. Here's to many more years of happiness. :cheers: Hope Fonzo feels better! :hug:


FrouFrou 01-23-2009 08:49 AM

Okay, now I will try my mini-post again...stupid computer thru me off for some reason-not like I had anything to say anyway, lol.

Mindee...hope you feel better, it's no fun being sick! :hug:

Sassy...yay to the scale and jeans. :yay:

Hi to everyone else :wave:

Nothing special going on today. Sitting here waiting for the little rat girl to wake up. Thinking I will go do a short walk while I wait. I was up early but still trying to wake up. I'll be back later to chat.

Have a good day!

tommysgirl18 01-23-2009 10:44 AM

just wanted to stop by and wish Francie and Fonzo a happy anniversary!!!!

we are about to head back to the pediatrician's office for the second time this week. Brandon woke up at 6am this morning crying and nothing was helping him at all. I asked him if his throat hurt, he told me no. I asked him if his ears hurt, he told me yeah and then pointed to his right ear. So, I told him that that would mean that he would have to miss school. He wasn't happy about it at first, but then agreed to it. So, I called the bus and school and told them that he won't be coming in today.

Logan also woke up this morning with a cough and so he is being seen as well. I just went ahead and made the appointment for all three kids, so they can all get checked out again to be on the safe side.

I will come back later and fill you all in on what they have......I am feeling better BUT I will need to get some more OJ and some soup.

Mom2Gaby 01-23-2009 01:37 PM

Mindee- Sorry Brandon isn't feeling any better.

Cristina-Nice try.......we know you like Jeopardy. :D It is a fenced playground and there are 3 ladies out there watching the kids...and I am the only *strange* adult that is around, so I think it is pretty safe (ok that is probably up for debate :0 ) and the kids are 1st,2nd,3rd....too young (we hope) to just take off and skip school. Besides they are all too busy playing kickball.....o, now you have me worried.haha
I think they start at 7:45am kids have a chance to eat breakfast, buses get there at 8am.
You're lucky to have Cambrie, she sounds like a doll.

Francie - Happy Anniversay to you and Fonzo!

Sassy - yay, to the jeans fitting! Did you get the house?? I saw the pic's, it looks real nice.

Jules & Kathy - Hope you ladies are doing ok, miss hearing from you.

:wave: hello to everyone else.

better get to work.

luckycharm 01-23-2009 02:06 PM

Hello Everyone

Well it is Friday already. I have not really accomplished much this week. Yesterday I had to take DD to the orthodontist to get her braces tightened. The appointment was at 8:00, and we have to travel 90 minutes to get there. An early start to our day. How come the weather and the highways always suck when a person has to travel? Today we are having car issues, so Cole is at home with me today. The 2 DS, and DS#1 girlfriend are all going to my BIL's place 2 hours away tomorrow. They will spend the weekend, and going to go and see Stomp. It will be fun for them. Hubby and I are going to try and get Cole's room painted, and changed around.

Francie - I wish you a very Happy Anniversary to you and Fonzo. I hope that Fonzo feels better soon. Do you guys have any special plans to do anything? :balloons: :gift: :balloons:

Mindee - Good luck at the doctors. It is amazing how once kids start school, they are always bringing something home.

Sassy - When you said that you wanted it gone now, you were not kidding. :D Wow what a great surprise that would be. Way to go on the jeans fitting. You will have to post the picture on facebook also, as I do not have myspace. That is great about the house that you will be renting. You are having a great month. Exciting about your appointment on the 25th. :carrot:

Cristina - How did Cambrie get an infection in her finger? Sounds like she gets very excited when she gets to come to your place. Did DS have a great trip? Did the two of you have a nice lunch? So, are you able to answer most of the questions as you are watching jeopardy? :) I think The Simpsons are on at the same time, and my DH couldn't possibly miss that show. BTW, I was so totally PO'd at the biggest loser on Tuesday, that I said I wasn't going to watch it anymore. Although, we know that isn't true, and I will be glued to the TV next Tuesday.

Tammy :hug: I hope that you are getting some rest, and starting to feel better. Has your hubby been helping you out with the cooking and the cleaning? Are you still tripping over the dogs, as they missed you so much?

SuzyQ - Mm the meatballs look wonderful. You don't cook? I don't want to cook either. Oh yeah, I was going to tell you that both my DS get a rash when they go swimming. Especially if they go into the hot tub at the pool. I think that it is because our pool uses Salt instead of Chlorine, and I wonder if salt kills the bacteria as well.

Katy - Glad that hubby made it back ok, and had a great time. So sorry to hear about DH Grandma. :hug: Does she live close to you guys? Hope you got some great produce in your delivery. I am glad that my family really likes salads. Makes it a little easier. Now try and order pizza around here? Thats a nightmare. Noone agrees on anything. :dizzy:

Sue - :hug: how is everything going at your house? How is your mom feeling? I hope that she is much better, and that you have gotten a little rest.

Jules - :hug: to you to. Hope that you are having a better day. Teri must be excited that you are going to get her a place of her own, and right next to you also. How far away does your DS live?

Asia - So how has your water and fiber consumption today? I do find it hard to up my fiber consumption. Hope your day was good.

Well my MIL just called to say that she is booking us all on a trip to California and Disneyland for March/Easter break. Looking foreward to that, although it will make me more determined to get to that 5k in 30 minutes. I have gotten to 39 minutes and 50 seconds. I am trying to remind myself that really, as an overweight person, I am doing well, and I just have to keep pushing myself. Well, I must run and go and make some lunch for me and the kid.
BBL

luckycharm 01-23-2009 02:12 PM

SuzyQ - at Cole's school, the kids play outside before they go in also, gives them a chance to wear off some energy. But if any kids are not there when they take attendance right after they get into their class, the school gets ahold of the parents right away and you have to account for your child. If they are sick and at home, you better hope that you have actually called the school to let them know because then you are in crap, as you have wasted their time by not letting them know. (Understandable of course, and I make sure I call before school is in.) Don't want to get called into the principles office. :lol:

sz2atheart 01-23-2009 03:51 PM

I sneaked out of the house today and went to Michaels to buy some stuff for the wedding with my 40% coupon and they had a dollar sale going on. Needless to say, after spending $75 and hauling it back in the house and hiding it in dd rooms (so dh doesn't know I went out), I'm exhausted. It's beautiful outside and I've been closeted in for over a week now. The fresh air did me good. Got on the scale this morning and down 4 lbs. Not bad considering all the steriods I'm on. Slowly feeling better. Dh will be glad when I get back to work. I'm spending way too much $$$$ on line.

Cristina--Thank you so much for the card. It was beautiful and so thoughtful of you.

I think I'll crash for awhile and watch Ellen and Oprah. See ya!!

FrouFrou 01-23-2009 11:26 PM

Hello ladies...

I will have to do individuals tomorrow...I had a post earlier and hit submit and lost it. The computer kicked me off and I/we have been without a home phone & computer since then, about 1'ish. For some reason the phone went dead...never thought about checking the phone, lol. It's not dial up but we do need the phone, duh! V called in to AT&T and put in a work order...told us it would be fixed by 3 p.m. Sunday, lol....WHAT?! Anyway...thought I would come back and see if it posted my post before I lost the connection and it didn't...but I was still logged on, lol. Anyway...until tomorrow. Nighty, night

Sassy_Chick 01-24-2009 10:40 AM

Hola all! :coffee:

Well the house is officially ours. :D The landlord emailed us asking what day and time to meet to take another look over it and that he wants to "accommodate" us to get us into the house after meeting us last week or so ago. ;) So we emailed him back and asked if Wed. (1/28) morning was ok. He closes Tuesday (27).

So looks like we be movin'!!! :woohoo: We went out yesterday and looked at IKEA for ideas on what to do for our new place cuz we are going to be purging A LOT of stuff! :D

Thanks to all for the congrats on the weight loss. I never thought I'd be able to say that! That is for sure! So now I just have to keep on truckin'!!! ;) It was just soo exciting to me to get on that scale and see that # and then try on those jeans and they fit and infact are a bit loose! :carrot:

I think I finally have DH on board too. After he saw his # he wasn't as happy as I was. I felt bad for him, because I have been there SO many times, but I told him, we CAN do this together! ;)

Well I'm sorry I haven't been doing indies lately, but just been busy! We were supposed to meet my BF and her signicant other tonight before DH goes to work then I was going to go back with them and watch their baby while they went out together, alone. But guess DH's schedule doesn't work out. So maybe next week. :shrug:

So anyways, BIG :hug:

Got caught!!! The minute dh got in my car last night, he noticed that the visor was down and the radio was changed. ;) Damn...can't get away with anything. We did go out for chinese last night and then the grocery store. I was totally whipped by then. Taking it easy today. Hopefully going out to dinner with dh's golfing buddies tonight. I just hope that I don't embarrass myself with a coughing fit. Made some pumpkin bread after a breakfast of oatmeal. Down another lb this morning :carrot:. Still working on wedding stuff. Looking for a calligrapher for the invitations. OMG....stuff really adds up. I'm hoping to get back to normal and start some exercising next week and dust off the elliptical. Still too short of breath. Don't know when I'll get back to work. The steriods will have me immunosuppressed and in my Doc's exact words..."I work in a cesspool". Can't work with kids without the germs. Heading up to wash my hair and put a face on. :D

Hugs to all :hug:

Good Morning -


Kathy - Have fun painting this weekend, what color? 90 minutes is a long trip for the dentist! That is about the same as my trip into Portland, if I drive slow it is 2 hours. I don't cook w/ just Gaby and myself, it is kind of hard. I did the meatballs and will have a mb salad today. lol G ate the mb's and liked them ok

Sassy - Good for you on getting the house!

Better get back to work , hello to everyone!

Ate some fruit and yogurt for breakfast and just had a bowl of oatmeal....anyway, looking towards Monday and a day off!

well, I thought I had posted yesterday, but apparently I just came to see what was new with every one and then thought I would come back later on.

I ended up getting some hair dye while we were at Walmart yesterday, filling yet again two more prescriptions! Brandon ended up with an ear infection, so he got amoxicilian and the doctor also gave us a script for motrin to have on hand for any fevers that might pop up. so now our counter looks almost like a pharmacy between Tommy's prescriptions and the kids!

I got some hair dye like I mentioned, the only color that they had left in the two pack for $3.96...and that color was strawberry blond! I dyed my hair before I went to bed last night and I like this color! I haven't taken any pictures of it yet because I got up feeling like crap! so I have been taking it easy, and drinking some OJ, I am now eating some chicken noodle soup.

Marissa and Logan are both laying down. Marissa is sleeping, Logan probably isn't but what can you do? Brandon and Tommy went and did some errand running for Tommy's lodge. I am about to finish my soup and go climb on the couch to lay down. I am already feeling better now, and all I have been doing is sucking down OJ like it is water!

HI...

Susan...was gonna ask when you are off but ya already answered that. Hope work goes well this weekend-don't work too hard missy. :hug:

Kathy...no idea how C gets the things she gets, but she seems to always have something wrong, falls a lot too. Looks like the fingernail is going to fall off. DS had a wonderful trip and our lunch was nice, and yummy too! WTG to you missy on the walking...you will be there before ya know it! Pretty damn close already! :carrot: :carrot: And woohoo to the trip to CA, that sounds like loads of fun!

Tammy...lol, sorry ya got caught, lol. Glad you are feeling good enough to go out and about. Isn't wedding planning so much fun, lol? Glad it's you and not me!

Mindee...would love to see a pic of the new color, that is different for you isn't it? Bet it looks good!

Nothing going on today. Didn't go to a game because no one told me there was one so...I know I will hear about it later. But damn it I am not calling them. If they want me to be at a function they need to let me know...I am not a freakin mind reader. I did get to sleep in, yay, lol. It's been a long week and I feel drained so I needed it. Anyway...just going to exercise lightly if I can...did something to my knee yesterday so being careful with it. And I am hoping to finish that stupid book I've been reading for months now...just can't get into it. But I started it and it is the last in the series so I gotta finish it. Then moving on to something different.

Have a good weekend!

You guys have been busy posters. I am finally feeling better sick wise--but still worried on and off about mom--after she goes to the specialist on Thursday I will be better. Lots of other little bothersome things going on to increase my stress.

FrouFrou 01-24-2009 05:19 PM

Hiya again...

Jules...hugs to you missy. Glad you are feeling better and hope the stress lessens for you soon. :hug:

Susan...thank you for the card missy!

Okay, guess I'll get back to doing nothing, lol.

Have a great weekend all!

I planned on doing indies tonight, but feel like doo-doo, so I will try to get back tomorrow. I have chest congestion and sore throat. I just drank a cup of hot tea and I am going to bed. *fingers crossed* that this is a quick thing...I have been so worried about getting Mom's virus, now this. Grrrrr.
On a good note, Mom is feeling very well.

Morning!
 
Morning All. :coffee:

Wow last week of January!!! Where does the time go??!!

We went out Friday all day and it was such a beautiful day!!!! :sunny: We shopped at a few stores and then we went to IKEA. Got some good ideas on things for the house and also got a good workout as the place is HUGE! :running:

After that we went home so DH could change his shoes as he wore his cowboy boots and his feet were hurting by then. Then we went and saw Underworld 3. I didn't care for it as much as I did the 1st two. But it was a nice time.

Anyways, I hope you all have a wonderful week!! Its back to work for me tonight, yippee. At least this week is my short week. :carrot: And I may not be around here a while because on my nights off I will have to begin packing, since we will be moving!!! We're meeting with the landlords wife Wed. morning to go through the house again and make it official and all!! :woohoo:

Good morning...

Sue...glad your mom is feeling better, but sorry to hear you are feeling ill. Feel better soon :hug:

Just wanted to check in and say HI...nothing really going on. We are supposed to get some icky weather later I guess...freezing drizzle.

Didn't get any exercise done yesterday but I will do a long slow walk on the treadmill later. My knee is being stupid so gotta take it easy. I don't want to be out of commission totally.

Hiya Susan, Jules, Tammy, Kathy, Katy and everyone else:wave:

Have a good Sunday!

Mom2Gaby 01-25-2009 01:18 PM

Good Morning -

Cristina - You're welcome for the card, I thought it was kind of cute. I use to be so good at sending cards but not as much anymore. You are always thoughtful in that area!
Think Cambrie is just an active little girl! Hope her finger infection is getting better.
Gab's father went and picked up a refill on her cream from the skin condition and didn't even bother to give her new insurance information. He said "I just figured it was already paid for on her old insurance".....om....f-ing beet juice! He is going to get me in trouble!! lol
You know that medication cost close to $200?? geesh.....
Sorry you missed the game!
Take care fo your knee :hug:

Sue - Hope you feel better!

Sassy - Exciting about the move! Take it easy.

Jules- :hug: come back and chat! Thinking of your mother, hope all is ok....

Mindee- Glad you are feeling better. How did the hair turn out?

Mom2Gaby 01-25-2009 04:43 PM

Kathy - I want your MIL! sheesh, I don't really care for Disneyland all that mush but would love to take the girls there at least once while they are young. I bet you all will have a blast! I remember The Cups and singing "it's a small world" over and over again when I was 6. lol


Ate the turkey meatball salad yesterday. Even for being turkey I could tell there was some grease in the meat, back to chicken today, which I think I will stick with from now on.

Tomorrow is WI! argh...we'll see how that goes.
