Hi All, another quickee for me...gonna work around the house today...will have to do a few more things for the estate stuff tomorrow and Friday.

Hi Everybody.

Hi Jules - Big

You all must be out enjoying the weather. Its been really warm here lately. Definitely is summer! lol.

I did my 1 mile W.A.T.P yesterday and did kickboxing today for a change of pace. I read somewhere that if you do the same exercise everyday that your body will get used to it and stop burning fat? Is that true? I can't see how that is true when people jog every single day and still lose weight? I mean I know eventually you have to do more, but you still should lose weight right?

Gonna make Shrimp Po Boys and have Cucumber Salad tonight for dinner. Cucumber Salad is done already. I'm gonna wing it on the Shrimp Po Boys. Because every recipe I found online uses Mayo and I don't wanna. Not just because Mayo is fattening, but I dunno something about Mayo and Shrimp, doesn't sound good to me. So I'm gonna just fry them in garlic infused olive oil add seasonings and maybe some Roasted Red Pepper and go for it! I'll let you all know how it is.

Well I hope your all enjoying your day!

Big


UPDATE:

Well I did the Shrimp Po Boys. I didn't like them. Infact I ALMOST got sick after eating. I know TMI. lol. Not that I think they were that bad, I just think for some reason it didn't settle well with me. But DH liked them. I dunno I think my stomach has been all jacked up since my dr upped my dose of my one medicine. So I cleaned up the kitchen and now I'm sitting here trying to get my tummy to calm down. The Cucumber salad was good like usual, but couldn't eat much of it due to my tummy being upset.

Well Have a Good Night!

Just dropping by with a quick Hi...it's late and way past my bedtime and I am tired! Baby has been being a bear with her teething. ugh! Glad I have a 3 day weekend and then a short week next week...I need a break. Love that baby dearly but babies are a whole lotta work!!! Thought my baby days were over. Anyway...went to b-game this evening and that's about not. Not a lot going on...same old boring stuff, different day. Will chat more this weekend...later gators

Hey Cristina -- Babies are a bear esp when teething. My bff little girl, who is 2 is having extreme temper tantrums lately. She called the dr and scheduled an appointment to see what is up. I'm hoping nothing too serious. I hope you enjoy your 3 day weekend.


Well I did some ab exercises today/yesterday (Thursday). Didn't feel too well and didn't feel like doing the W.A.T.P. Just been feeling crappy. I'm gonna see how I'm feeling on Monday or probably Tuesday with the holiday and all, but then I'll be calling the dr if I don't feel better by then.

I hope you all are doing well!

Hi (:
Big thumbs up to me for staying up way to late...again.
Teething babies are no fun. Make sure you keep Vaseline on baby's booty to keep it from getting red. Because teething babies with a diaper rash are double the no-fun.
Sassy: Boo @ feeling under the weather. If you have the stomach for it, drink something with a high vitamin-C content (I find mine at the Kroger/Publix produce section. Hope I'm not name-dropping unknown grocery establishments..) That + a good 10 hours sleep usually scares the germies away.
As for me, I'm so excited about starting up with this forum. Not only that, but I'm more than thrilled for the work week to almost be OVER! A great long weekend of tending to my garden, spoiling my bratty puppy, and painting awaits me.
edit: I want to add. When I first started writing this reply, a song randomly started playing on my itunes. It was a ska variation of a popular song. I was totally convinced it was Hava Nagila. Then, when I submitted I realized it was the Tetris theme. How I got those two mixed up in my head eludes me. /randomness

welcome telsagirl

Just a quickie, I have tons to get done in the next few days. I would freak out but usually things work out in the end. Right? Usually at least. This probably won't be one of those times. haha.
I managed to lose 2 pounds! I was 162 in Hawaii and was 160 this morning. Happy camper about that.

Jules - thinking of you.

Sassy - Hope you are feeling better.

Cristina - I want another baby! Your so blessed with Lily. I am envious.

Sue - Birds scare me. I know random but they do......lol

best get to everyone else!!

Hello all...

HIYA TESLAGIRL and

SUSAN...I thought for a few years I wanted another baby but no thank you, lol. I like being the Nana and her going home at the end of the day. So when are you moving missy? Send me your new address, please and thank you WTG on the 2 pounds and glad you have a wonderful time in Hawaii! The pictures were GREAT!

SASSY...good job on your workout(s)! I've been so lazy but I am managing to get my walks done at the mall. If it weren't for baby I can't say that I would. I have to force myself lately to do anything. Feel better

((((JULES))))

HIYA SUE...hoping all is well with you.

Sitting here watching a S-T-U-P-I-D movie on the syfy channel...it's called Snow Spiders, lol...think the name says it all. Baby went home early today so I am kinda lost right now. Oh well, means an early dinner tonight...I've been trying to get dinner cooked earlier than 8 p.m...too many kids games and running around. Anyway...going to hang the curtains in Lily's/guest room do the border and straighten up after V painted, loving the purple, actually a shade of lilac. Took the closet doors off and painted it mostly pink with a square of yellow and green, I think it's cute. Not done yet, need to get a comforter or somethng for the double bed, (just threw a green quilt on there for now) then find a bumper for the crib and hopefully a bedskirt to make it cute, and hang a couple of things on the wall. Sounds like a lot but the room is pretty empty and plain and I want it that way. Anyway...

Been walking at the mall...don't think I have missed a day in a while. WI is Monday so we'll see how things go. Will probably lose a few pounds by the next week...going to AR and I swear I usually lose 2-4 pounds while there. I guess just get too busy and don't eat as much. Hoping to get some walking in with my mother.

Have a GREAT Memorial weekend ladies!

Hi Chickies!

TESLAGIRL!!!!! Your Randomness will fit right in here! HEE HEE! Thanks for the tips! I took some dayquil when I got up today and feel a little better. But as soon as I ate today my tummy felt bad again. I do think its my medication that my dr upped doing it to me. I feel better now after taking a much needed shower (been outside sweating to death! HA!) and drinking some water, I feel better.

Suzy Q -- WTG on the 2 pounds girlie! Esp being on vacation!!

Cristina -- Thanks! I do try to do something EVERYDAY! Today I went to the park with my BFF and her little girl and not only played and walked around, but SWEATED off about 1,000 calories! HA! The Guest Room/Lily's Room sounds very cute! I need to get to work on my whatever you call it room. The tread mill is in there but I don't use it because it bores me! I much rather do the W.A.T.P dvd. Walking the mall can be fun I did that while DH was at the dentist a couple weeks ago.

So as I mentioned already, went to the park today with my BFF and her little girl. It was fun even though it was HOT! (Its been in the 90's here and VERY humid!) but I got in my exercise + probably sweated off about 1,000 calories! The park had a grill out today and music so we hung out and ate. I had fish and it was good! Not greasy at all!

Anywho I hope your enjoying your night!!!

HIya Sassy...your day at the park sounded nice. It's HOT here as well, more humid I think which makes it feel hotter. Enjoy your weekend.

Nothing much going on today...hubby has to work. I've got some cooking to do for tomorrow's dinner, having the kids over. Was going to BBQ but did that last time they were here and for some reason a turkey dinner sounded really good to me...they will be surprised, lol. Anyway...plan on reading most of the day and watching stupid movies on syfy...have a good one!

Wonderful week-end to you all....
It is hot and humid here too ladies...we are trying to NOT turn our A/C on since it is due to cool down, but don't know if we will make it.
I got a hair-cut this a.m. and then picked up a watermelon for tomorrow. Went out to DD's for a few minutes to pick up something. They are so busy out there...making great strides. The farm is gonna look so good.....
I made slaw and cut up the melon for our little cook-out tomorrow. Just us, burgers and dogs. Oh, and S'mores.
I put on a pot of green beans using some ham leftover from earlier in the week. So just need to add potatoes and we will have dinner. I told DH he won't get cornbread or biscuits if we don't turn thr A/C on...so hey I have my cooking done for the week-end. Ha.

Mom is doing well after her injection. Her pain is about gone...she knows it will never be totally gone, but it is bearable now. She is off most pain meds, which makes her feel more "with it" and less nauseated. She is back to walking around our little circle here every day. I hope she continues to feel well so we can plan to take some sort of trip.
Next week I go for my skin cancer check...hope I am clear so I can go back to yearly appts. Have to order all our meds. and take mom to her cancer Dr. I think we will have a few weeks in June and July with-out Dr. visits. Yay!

Okay...can you explain how my WI is UP..higher than I have been for awhile, but my size 14 shorts that were getting snug are a little loose today? I know I have to get on exercise...no excuses. DH just said earlier today that I should be losing since he hasn't seen me eat much of anything this week...oh, I wish.

I think you are holding water Sue, retaining. Pretty sure. I'm sending you a bill now for my *expert* advice. ha

Just a quickie!! Lets talk about me......ugh.

I put myself on a campbells soup diet, a can per day w/ crackers and yogurt and a banana for breakfast. So far so good, 159.8. lol Hey,it's working.

I ate fish and salads in Hawaii. Rocky had to eat healthy because of his health, I didn't gorge like I did in other trips. Felt good and I had read Women,God and Food, gave some interesting insight. Like eat when you are hungry. Who would have thought??? lol So simple.

Moving this weekend Cristina, when I get off work. Exhausting, I'll rest Wednesday.

Yippeeee,finally back to 157 (.2) this morning. Soup of choice today is chicken noodle, I'll add veggies to it. I did eat some grilled chicken yesterday,didn't seem to matter and a bagel with cheesy topping - that was good too.
Moved and because I am anal everything is unpacked and all is set up. lol Now I need to clean the old place and I will be done with the moving chore.
Hope to get Gaby to the movie tomorrow or do something fun, what a trooper she is.....
back to work to everyone

Well, today is WI, ugh! Down a pound but the thing is last weeks WI was up 2, lol oh well could be worse.

Nothing going on today...just being lazy and relaxing. Don't have baby today so am trying to get things done. Need to get the luggage out and air it out and probably pack some but I'll wait until the last minute, lol. Anyway...did get my lazy arse up early and to the mall for my walk...getting ready to do a dvd. Really needing to somehow fit the dvds in with the walking. I know I've been saying it and have done it sporadically but need to just DO IT! Anyway...better get and go do some things...ironing to do, laundry, etc...same old stuff.

Oh, turkey dinner was awesome yesterday! We ate, we played and we ate some more and somehow I was still down a pound...I'll take it!

HAPPY DAY!

Yes, I would rather be at the beach.....

Nothing but a lazy day today. And here I am ready to go to bed early..just haven't felt up to much. DH has kept busy with his furniture building, so I read a book and watched a movie today. I did my normal Monday housework..no holiday here. LOL.
