Wabbit, you definitely exercised all weekend! I mostly slept. I can't believe your DS is 21 You are now the proud owner of adult children!
Thanks Painty for well-wishes. I don't feel horribly sick, just sick enough not to want to do much...
Sugar, here's what I'm doing with my sig. If I remember to keep it up, and don't get so embarrassed at not doing what I said I'd do. I'm keeping track for 90 days, because that's the program length of my exercise DVDs. Each day I do something I'll replace the day # with for weights session or for aerobic exer. or for walking, or something like that, and each day I don't get any exercise, I'll fill in a , just because I like that one. I'll tally the weeks so it doesn't get too long. Aren't you glad you asked?
I read one of Suzanne Sommers' books. About dieting. It was okay. I just can't take her perkiness.
Good job on the exercise routine, Frappe Keep getting better
Bagz, I can't believe all the stuff you are doing, it would freak me out totally. But then, your house is really cool for a wedding and I'm sure you are getting all kinds of help (right?). I mean, someone's catering it, right? You're not going to spend the reception on the back deck grilling mass quantities of meat or anything? It will be lovely, I'm sure! We'll be waiting for pictures...
Hi LushieLo. I do the same thing--take walks around the neighborhood while waiting for DD. It's horribly boring, but you gotta do something, eh?
Where the heck is Cowperch? She's not allowed to just go off without asking.
Gotta go try to earn a
Well give me a for today. I had to stay in the office today to wait for the alarm guy to show up, no walk for me. Someone broke a plate window out of our shop this weekend. The alarm, which had 4 false alarms last year and one already this year, didn't go off. No one took anything, I think it was probably just kids having fun by chucking rocks thru storefront windows, nothing was stolen.
Probably not going to exercise any this evening. We're taking DS and some of his friends out for dinner. Italian. Last night we went out for mexican. I'm just going to blow up here any day.
I bought a swimsuit. Doesn't mean I'll wear it in public without some kind of sarong thingie covering up the chub.
May I ask this litttttle thing????!?!?!??? When someone starts a new thread, could they be BOTHERED to say at the end of the OLD THREAD ..... "a new thread has been started." REally! How rude of you all.
I wonder how many calories you can burn by rolling on the floor laughing? Might be worth a try. Jim Carrey was on David Letterman tonight and he was definitely funny.
Did I mention that I am DH-less this week? What should I do with my free time? Actually it's more a matter of free space: bed space, available TV remote, one less person to trip over in the morning, smaller dinner menu. I wouldn't say that DH is more work than DD, but I wouldn't say less either. Tonight I decided that whatever I made for dinner was going to be something that would cook while I did my workout tape. So I made chicken and mushrooms cooked in rice pilaf, plus frozen peas for DD and raw red peppers for me. It turned out pretty well.
I'm *supposed* to be preparing to tutor a high school kid this afternoon but instead I'm making a chocolate marble loaf (no marbles!) because baking is much more fun than working, right?
Ah! Now I get the workout progress thing. Maybe I should do something like that. My new motto is "eat what you want within limits, but DO something every day". Probably won't work. I have a swimsuit that looks sort of half ok but I'll know I'll be wearin' it with shorts when the time comes. An indiscrete question for you "older" cows: once the boobs start to head down hill, do they keep going for ever and ever until they're down around yer knees, or do they stop some time? I'm getting worried. Should never had those darn kids, I guess. ONLY KIDDING. Ha ha.
GET WELL SOON to everyone who's feeling crappy. Pink light all around (I like that, Painty! Works for me).
I'm also very neutral on Suzanne. Just hadn't seen her for a long time and thought she looked good, but you're right, Bagzie - it was the botox and collagen and a ton of makeup look. I liked it when Larry asked her if people didn't need SOME sugar and she was totally stumped. You could see the wheels in her tiny brain grinding away. I'm also sort of wondering in the back of my mind if her special diet thingy - high fat and all that, contributed to her getting cancer. Good thing she beat it, though. Oh well. She's rich, we're not. So what.
hey shuga shuga!!!! honey honey!!! you are my CANDY gurrrrrrrrlllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!BOY did i love that song!!!!---yesterday i meant to get to the mill but i had a walk outdoors instead---not as strenuous as the mill,but like you said!!!----DO SOMETHING!!!!!today i have to find someone to cut my hair----i am SO tired of the way it's been cut-----either i look like a dyke or an old granny----not that there's anything wrong with it!!!!ahahahahah---wish me luck!!!!got a new dishwasher for the repainted kitchen------maytag TALLTUB------can't wait to hook her up and watch her go.CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT THE DISHWASHER IS MY BIRTHDAY PRESENT!!!!!
I forgot to post this message until now: 3 hours later
I happen to know it's not Bagzie's birthday yet. So far this month the only birthday I've missed is my nephew's 30th. It's 2 more days until I miss Bagz'. I should know; I'm an expert on missing birthdays.
I really did exercise yesterday, but boy do I feel crappy today -- not from that, just cramps. Blahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Sheesh, I thought DH being gone was going to free up some time? Yeah right -- he wants to me to find out what's wrong with his truck. He has the truck with him and it's making some flashing code thing. I suppose I should have just told him to call a garage and ask them, but y'know, I hate to be rude...
Ich. Cramps. You'd think there would be an expiration date on those or something.
Happy Birthday Dear Bagzie, Happy Birthday to Youuuuuuuu!!!!! Anyway, happy birthday in a couple days, per Kiwi. A dishwasher is a wonderful present if you need one. I washed dishes by hand for at least 6 mos. when we were remodeling. What drudgery. Bleeh.
DH is picking up 2 more scoops of compost/steer manure blend for me. He's always showering me with fancy gifts.
Yeah, Kiwi, your cramps should be retiring soon. You can graduate to hot flashes.

Sugar, there doesn't seem to be a bottom on this boob thing.I guess that when you look like two fried eggs have spilled over your apron gut, they'll be finished.
Kiwi, I love when my DH is away. I stay up real late and do whatever the h*ll I please. Of course, I could do that when he is here, but I'd have to explain myself. I think that is what I like best...not having to explain myself.
Peaches, Kiwi sent all of us a message saying we should sneak over here before you saw us....we've been talking about you the whole time.
Happy Birthday you old BAGHag. A dishwasher is a FINE present..because it doesn't count so you can go buy yourself whatever you want....Are you older than I, yet????????????????????
gotta go be productive. bye
Happy Birthday to all for whom that is appropriate...
to the rest: HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY .... and watch out for the green beer!!
Sympathies, Wabby for 21 year old baby. My "baby" is now 22... he's as aimless as he was at 16... even if he's graduating with a degree in 6 weeks. egad. I surely do hope he finds something to do besides enlist.... even though that would do him oceans of good in the backbone department, I hate that they are not letting anybody OUT these days... Almost worse than the draft 30 years ago. Grrrrrrrr. (I am not succeeding at maintaining enlightened buddha detachment... can you tell?
Taxes are almost done. DH still loves me. Must find car expenses worksheet from last year so I can crib numbers for this year.
DH is going to a seminar in California and I get to go with him. I think I won't need a bathing suit. but maybe some of my T-shirts and shorts will fit OK by then... I must get into training for major walking.
Night y'all. Gotta go promote myself in the early am so people pay me so I can pay taxes next year.
as I was saying. I do not not post because Lushe makes me paranoid. It is, instead, because I am dull.
Yesterday:
* I overate at lunch
* Returned a library book late
* Attended a school board meeting wherein they discussed the upcoming school calendar
* Did not yet know the list button at 3FC had been removed
* Found, once again, my boss' dad standing in my office staring at a map on the wall
* Wrote about No Child Left Behind. Isn't that a crock of s**t.!

IMAGINE---THREE STORIES HIGH MY TALL TUBBY IS!!!!!!!!THANK YOU ALL FOR THE B DAY GREETINGS!!! XOXOXOXOXOXOXO COWARSE
Yeah, Kiwi, your cramps should be retiring soon. You can graduate to hot flashes.
Oh thank you, that is a relief.

Are you implying that I shouldn't post when my life is dull? Come on, Peaches, you know I would never get to post anything at all. I mean, I don't even have a boss's dad. The most interesting thing that's happened to me today is I got an email from DH's old girlfriend.
Anyway, about the list button -- do you mean the buddy list? You can still get that if you go under Quick Links/Open Buddy List. It's not as convenient as it used to be -- it's a popup window, but it's there.
Bagz, it looks like your new dishwasher arrived just in the nick of time! Good luck to you this week. Hope you get to enjoy your birthday in the midst of all the mayhem!
Seriously, you notice I have nothing whatever to say but to reply to what you say? Dullsville. It is sunny out today, maybe I'll go see if there is any snow left in the woods to snowshoe in. We still have 3-4 foot snowbanks in our yard, but bare patches are increasing. We didn't get any of that snowstorm -- how about you, Lush?
