I tried to upload a picture of my ferns and it said it was not a valid photo file. Now here are 2 others taken with the same camera, they worked.
One is my fountain just as we sat it and planted a fern behind. It will be planted around soon.
The other is the Siberian irises I found blooming when I went to the mailbox. This area was just planted last Fall, so should be filled out great next year.

Good Morning

Cristina - Get back on track missy!! You'll be fine. What can I do to help?? I'll exercise w/ you?

Hi to Katy & Sue!

See, how lazy I am?? lol

Gab and I are staying in town. Went and pd my rent/ deposits and stopped at some sales. Saw a push mower for $10, might go back and get that.
Saw a adventure club lady at the store, she also works there and I knew her when the R's were babies. So, I have known her a long time, she also does some hours at the adventure club and since they take the kids to the pool once a month I asked her if she knew if the Pool Man was married and she said she didn't think so....that he is always by himself when he shops at the store.....and she has never seen him with anyone, that he is always alone.

*sigh....so we are going to open swim today. lol I know. What a flake I am.

w/i at 143! Surprised because I ate my salad plus some rice and salmon for dinner and funyons......

anyway. we have sooooo much to do and here I sit.

chat more later!

Hi - I'm back!

The compost is done! I'll have to upload some pics. I am "babysitting " some dahlias for the school garden until it can be redesigned, so I planted those today as well as getting the rest of my seeds planted. I still need to plant some zucchini, but then that should be the last of the planting for a few weeks. Then I figure we'll need a new round of lettuces.

Sue - your plants look great...I like what you did around your new fountain. Ferns are sure easy to maintain and look pretty, too.

Susan- go get him I sat next to the most gorgeous man at the knitting guild (of all places) last Thursday. He was knitting lace and talked alot about his mother, but I shouldn't jump to conclusions, right? Oh yeah, that and I'm married...so much for true love :P

Francie - I've heard True Blood is really good. I like the actress, Anna Paquin. She won an Oscar for the Piano which was a great movie. Have fun!

Hi to everyone else! OK, my tea is gone and I really smell so I need to get cleaned up and get to Costco. No rest for the wicked

Katy--Hubby tilled up the garden...now I have to get the plants in the ground..have fun at Costco---maybe the knitting guy can be your knitting buddy...

Francie--never heard of the True Blood series....

SuzyQ--I want to strangle the hubby but I have to wait until Dominic is back at his mom's.....maybe I won't be as mad at him then....Good luck with the pool guy....

Sue--I am having a lazy day...Teri called and woke me up actually...to say she was going to take a nap...I was like thanks....I was already napping...luckily hubby and baby slept through it..the flowers are so pretty--I took some pics,,just have to download them...


Cristina--I agree--how it can take so long to come off but sneak up and pow there it is...

Sassy--I liked the dark auburn with the way you do you eyes to make them pop!!

Kathy--hubby was growly today as predicted...hopefully he will get over it quick

Mindee--hope all is well with you

Ended up doing a little over 14,000 steps yesterday...today I forgot to put it on...I'll be lucky if I make to 5,000---just feeling really lazy today and enjoying Dominic..coffee for breakfast and had fresh sweet corn, tomatoes and green beans for lunch....not being real good at getting me water in either....got a little bit of a nagging headache...no I am not talking about hubby....

Katy - You're going to upload pictures of compost? Isn't that poop? This knitting man was all by himself with a group of ladies??

Oh, wait I have a Pool Man thought......

what if he is *happy*???? He's not married but he could be *happy*??? Ugh. Maybe he was looking all the time at M?? Who btw refuses to go to swim lessons because he is disgusted w/ my *behavior*.....whatever, it's not like I was actually drooling.
I don't think so though..... because IF he is single there WAS a lady in his google search, so he must be divorced.
Not that I have a chance. It is like he is always in the f-ing water. I need plastic surgery before I can get in the pool w./ him....

Jules - 14,000 steps is still a lot of steps! I still want to strangle M.

I feel lazy too. I am not even packing, I did pull everything out of my closet and I made a salad. Gab and I went to the video store and I picked up "Rachel getting married"...need to run to the store and get some things and HOPE after that to go to the evening swim session. PM probably won't be there by that time but I can stare at his office door through the glass window.

*sigh..................I am SOOOOOOOO bored. It's summer and I really want a guy friend to do things with, nothing serious........ by Fall he can take a hike if he wanted.

anyway, I am wearing this head band and it is squeezing my brain matter.....

k- whatever.....

Susan- he was sitting by me the whole night..mine, all mine! I think we are destined to be just knitting buddies...so, we're googling PM are we? hmmm.. I want to see Rachel Getting Married..hear it's pretty good. As I was telling Leigh ad nauseum, the compost USED to be poop, now it is soil. Yes, it is ok to touch It does wonderful things to my garden.

Jules - hang in there...by the time Dominic leaves you most likely won't want to bash his head in. 14000 steps is awesome...I never get that close when I put on the pedo. I did a walk/run this morning and finished up the compost for a few hours so I feel like I burned enough cals for today.

Need to start dinner - Ciao for now!

Hola.

Well my mom went home yesterday. We met her BF. I dunno. Something about him that I just do not trust. #1 sign I know will sound totally insane, but our cat absolutely did not like him at all, when he first saw him, he looked like he was looking at Satan himself and turned and hid most of the time he was here. He finally did come out later, but our cat is VERY social and NEVER ever does that! EVER! He is the type that is always in people's faces like "Pet me now!" So that was a BIG sign there. Also he just seemed very fake to me. But like DH said, "we don't have to like him, only she does" So now I understand what my parents and relatives felt like when meeting some of my boyfriends when I was a teenager and they had to "be nice" for my benefit. lol.

I also colored my hair. DH and I both think it looks good. We'll see what they say at work. I think I am not gonna tell them that I did it myself, just to see if they buy it. I think they will cuz it looks pretty darn good if I do say so myself! It is Light Reddesh Brown. But now I can do it on my own since its no longer highlighted. Its gonna be A LOT easier and A LOT cheaper for me to maintain!

Sue -- Love the pictures! I need to go out and take some pics of my flowers and stuff!

Jules -- thanks so much for the compliment! 14,000 steps is awesome!!!

Susan -- You are hilarious. You sound so much like my mom. She just wanted a guy to go out and do things with and I guess that is what she has. He was gonna take her out to dinner yesterday, so guess that is good. Hope you find a good guy friend to take you out and have fun with.

Katy -- I have seeds to plant too. Tomatoes, cucumbers, onions and peppers. The landlord came over yesterday and mowed and weed wacked all the old weed ridden flower beds so maybe now I can plant something there. lol.

Hola Francie, Cristina, and anybody else out there I may have accidentally missed!!!

Big

'Morning all...

Was up for my morning walk...screw two walks a day...by the end of the day I just want to relax, lol. Actually, I say this because evening walks won't work unless I do it where ever the kids' games are. Next week Chase has 3 and Cambrie's has her first one. So going to concentrate on the morning walk and a dvd or two on some days and/or a dvd and a walk on the treadmill plus weights. Sounds good to me Did good yesterday with the food and exercise...still can't do a dvd because of this darn bruise...gonna take forever to heal I swear. But I can walk, slowly, but I can so that's all that matters.

SUE...love the fountain and the iris's...so pretty. Can't wait to see what you do with the fountain area...I know it is going to look good!

SUSAN...thank you for the card! That was sweet. And I too say, go for the PM! And you do have a chance, well, unless of course he is *happy*. I am going to have to see what this "Rachel Getting Married" is about...I have never heard of it.

KATY...I am going to call you Ms Compost or the Compost Queen! Always love your garden(s) flower and veggies...I would love to have one but I am just to lazy...too much work for me, lol.

FRANCIE...I've not ever heard of True Blood either, of course now seeing, I don't have HBO.

JULES...love your avatar with the little guy, he's too cute! WTG on the 14,000 steps, geez woman...you are a walking machine! And now you will get a workout gardening...ygg!

SASSY...you know, I have to say it doesn't sound insane. I think they are like people and sense things about people...their aura. You'll have to share of pic of your new color, and yes your flowers.

Hello to everyone else

Nothing going on today. Was sleeping so good this morning and there was a tap on the door, lol. DD to wake me for the walk. Didn't set the alarm because I had been waking up early, and the hubby had to go in to work so I thought him moving around would wake me...I was out. Anyway, will walk some on the treadmill later and get some more reading done. Also, need to get some laundry done. Other than that nothing special going on. Need to go get some breakfast...have a good one!

Good Sunday Morning!! It was suppossed to rain today but the sun is out instead...HOOORAY!

I should have had the pedometer on already, washing clothes and hanging them out on the clotehsline, chasing Dominic, getting ready to go down to the garden which is a walk in itself...it's down by hubby's garage--we were smart enough to put in a water spigot or it would be carrying water back and forth...Going to the carnival helped with the 14,000 steps..eating peanut oil with vinegar and salt fries probably used every step I walked...

Cristina--hope the bruise gets better quick...I slept until almost 9 yesterday....it was such a lazy day...felt good

Sassy--always trust a usually socal animal...time will tell..the only boyfriend/girlfriend of the kids I didn't like from the start was Dave, I really tried for Teri but he was so fake the first time I met him, his stories just didn't add up, I am thankful to him for Dominic though. Love that boy!!

Francie--we don't get HBO. I have always had a thing for vampires myself...

Katy--I know, he just irritates me more now than he used to when he tries to be all controlling and bossy, must be premenopause...or we are just becoming two crotchedy (sp?) old people or I just can't take it and be quiet like I used too.... .

SuzyQ--I got over it yesterday, but he pissed me off this morning already and I want to hit him on the head today...


Ry's new girlfriend is really cute and nice...he says he feels like a child molester since she's just turning 20 and he's the ripe old age of 24...he cracks me up....he got some flu bug and she took good care of him...they are going down to Harpers Ferry today to hit a few flea markets and go walking...invited us but of couse hubby just wants to stay home...they might stop out later..he wants us to meet her. Teri says she's good for him. Of course Teri posted pics of the two of them on her myspace in the CHili Cook off file and now his ex is calling again...she doesn't want Ryan but she doesn't like him to be with anyone else even when she is living with the newest boyfriend...she sent Ry some really weird texts yesterday....he finally told her that he would like to be friends since they have been a big part of each others lives but they both have someone else and he wants to give this relationship with the new girl a chance to work.....

well, there's another load ready to be hung on the line(no not hubby) his clothes...another to be put in the washer and I am caught up for a few days....

Sassy~Your dh is right. You dont have to like him, but your mom does. However..if your cat doesnt like him, then maybe something is wrong with the guy. Maybe he smelled like dogs. When I'm around dogs, my cats avoid me. You colored your hair!!! Now you have to take a pic and show us!!!

Cristina~You should relax at the end of the day!!! Spend time with your family. What are you reading??


Jules~Sounds like the ex is a little crazy. She doesnt want him, but doesnt want him to be with anyone else. Ya okay. Good luck with that chickie. I've known many girls like that. A couple of Fonzo's ex girlfriends were like that, after they found out we were married.

Cristina & Jules~Here's the trailer for the show. The first season is out on dvd now. When Fonzo wakes up, we're gonna watch the rest of the season. http://www.imdb.com/video/imdb/vi1873412633/

Good morning again,

I shouldn't say f-ing, especially on Sunday. It is just really lame to pay for computer time.

katy - You won't share the knitting buddy? Will you share your husband? lol I have seen him (at the pool, all great men are at the pool *sigh) you 2 make a nice looking couple. I am not sure about all that compost stuff, I guess it turns itself back into soil, just sounds really unsanitary. lol

sassy - Thought at first you wrote that your CAR didn't like him. It's like.............ooooooo.k.....people back east are alittle different. lol i did my hair too, Hot Coco. it looks the same as the Pecan shade though.

Cristina - you're welcome! sorry it was sooo late. 2 miles sounds good to me. I clocked the distance last night from the hospital to the new place and it was 2.1 miles. Not that that means anything

jules - Rach is *dating a 30 year old. he says he won't take her out til she turns 18 in Aug but they see each other at school. *eyes roll*...what does a 30 year old have in common w/ an 18 year old? I love the smell of line dried clothes!

Francie - No, he is Irish with that icky strawberry blonde color and last night I noticed he needed a hair cut. Seems slicker in the water, last night he was dry and puffy. See, I haven't even dated him and already I am tired of him. lol

anyway, I finally picked up a disposal camera so I will go get some snap shots. gab and I went there last night but it was starting to get dark. I could see the Lewis * Clark bridge from the front porch, it is just a little bridge across the bay but it was lit up. Took gab to my work and introduced her to some lady friends and we went to safeway and had some chinese food. So, we had a nice *date*.....
Weigh in was the 142, I was surprised but remembered I didn't even have breakfast yesterday morning and I have been running around trying to get things done. Had I looked up my refund and it says it is getting mailed out on the 29th! So, maybe I can buy new curtains. lol And I want a new couch....and a table and chairs for the front porch so I can sit out there.

k- yada, yada...better get.
