Sorry to be short, just have a few minutes. Yesterday ended on a sour note,kids on the bus were awful. Oh, well. Got my walk in this am- boy did I need that!!

Melinda- the job sounds good........best of luck.

Andrea- we were getting worried about you!!!!! Feel free to post/vent any time.

Spryng, Geri, Ricci, Candy, Jackie- hope I did not miss anyone!!! See you later and have a great day.

Ginny - How early does your route start where you are able to walk and post before you work? You must be some superwoman. You didn't sound negative, good to hear all views.

Penny - The sewing machine must have been $39. I will have to look the next time we go there. Congrats on 2 down, that will really help with the bp. The stressful week probably made a difference as well.

Spryng - Have you bought a new suit for that fab tan? I have so many from pre-baby but they are all two pieces. This summer will definitely be a one piece, even if I lose the weight, things don't go back like they use to. Undies and bra (due to nursing) for me. I hope they go back to normal so I do not always have to wear a bra Bought 7 days worth my homeymoon never wore them again.

Andrea - Your body and mind are going thru at lot right now. It is perfecting normal for you to feel depressed. Do something for yourself, even if it is a bubble bath once the kids go to sleep. I think of you often.

Hello to Jackie,Michelle, Candy and Geri.

JW went back to sleep after he woke up at 630. I am planning on going to the gym when he wakes but that is all for today. Oh, I am going to call the office. I am going to tell them that I will work Mon, Wed for 16 hrs total until they find someone to do the job. So it could be 2 weeks to 6 months. Keep you posted on how it goes.

Have a good day! I am going to try to be at chat. It is so great for me, free therapy. I know I say that a lot but it is true.

Melinda

Good Morning! :coffee:

I've had my 2 cups of coffee and now I'm ready to face the day! I'm planning on cleaning out my spare bedroom (my boys room together) and I bought some paint named gaucho (it's a brown-tan color) at WalMart and I'm planning on painting either today or tomorrow. I have also painted my bedroom and the bathroom that connects to it a color called Summer Rie. It's a golden yellow. I also bought it at WalMart. I usually do horrible at picking out paint, but these colors are great! Anyway, it's nice to fix up my house and seems to keep me busy.

Ginny, I'm so sorry about those kids acting so rotten! I'm proud of you for keeping your cool! I would be wanting to yank them up and give them a good spanking! :lol:

Melinda, thanks for your thoughts! Good for you going to the gym. I have a boflex and need to make myself use it! If I would tone now, I would look good by the time I hit goal. Good luck on your job! The extra money will be nice!

Well, I'm going to take a bath and start my day! TTYL!

Good morning all!
Andrea, you have been staying busy! Spring fever has hit you huh? I wish I was painting something this week.
Melinda, no I haven't bought a swimsuit yet. I need to be able to try them on and I can't do that with 3 kids in tow. So maybe when Dh comes in I'll go swimsuit shopping. But I am excited about it! And I am with you, I will definitely be in a one piece, if we had our own swimming pool I'd get brave and buy a two piece but since I have to be around others I'll spare them from that vision, lol. I hope you are able to get to the gym! How long do you work out while you are there?
Ginny, so sorry you had another rotten day driving yesterday. Hopefully today will be better and congrats getting that walk in, it really does help doesn't it?
Andrea, so glad to hear alex is doing well. And hang in there... you can get to your goal you just have to stay focused which is hard to do when life gets crazy. I find it so much easier to be OP when DH is gone. No one to encourage me to eat something I'm not suppose to. I think if he ever got a 9-5 job I would be in trouble... with my weight anyway. But thankfully that won't be happening for several more months and hopefully by then I'll be maintaining my weight.
Well I am off to find and buy a lateral thigh trainer today!!! I know it's not a great gift but it's what I decided to buy for my anniversary. I've been researching it alot and it gets great reviews from users so I would really like one. walmart.com sells it so I'm assuming it is in their stores too, so I'm off to find one today. Wish me luck!! I'm so excited about this. TTYL!

Starting a new thread...see you there!
