Well I have decided to splurge today and have some whole wheat french toast made with egg substitute and sugar free syrup that has 0 calories :) it will be a high calorie breakfast because of the bread, but I haven't had it in a long time so I figure one breakfast won't kill me plus I'm using whole wheat bread and egg substitute as opposed to white bread and whole eggs. Can you tell I'm trying to rationalize lol.

Yes I gotta get to cleaning too but I did want a nap today ugghhh who knows lol I seem to be in a tug of war with myself today ;)

Ok guys I'll see you in a bit.
Michelle

Good Morning Ladies

Thanks for all your replies about the sleepovers. I don't feel so darn guilty now. My husband is really pushing the issue. Oh well. He said you did it. I had to because my parents divorced and my mom had to work two jobs. So you can't expect a five year old to take care of themselves and a younger sibling. Even though I did it after school, that started when I was about seven years old.

Spryng sorry your chili did not turn out. Thats funny, I eat something too because I hate to waste and it food and its there and all the work that went into making it. What are you making tonight? I think I will do bean enchiladas. I usually have those every Monday night but we had the leftovers. What do you have planned today?

Michelle and Misty I am so glad that I never had to deal with the diaper pulling off stuff. But i have heard stories about really messy stuff!

Geri great pictures. I love the huge deck. Your kids are adorable. I just love watching them eat cake on their first birthday. Messy but fun.

Hi everyone I missed. Check in later. Julie

Hi Again!!
Kids are down for their naps so it's nice and quiet in here :) *big sigh*
Julie, your enchiladas sound really good. I'm having soft tacos. I have them about once a week also. With fat free refried beans on the side. The kids LOVE it. I use the boca crumbles instead of ground beef though. Saves on fat and pts, plus I actually like the crumbles, LOL. and the kids can't taste the difference so far. What do I have planned for today? Not much now. I finally got off my butt and finished my morning routine. The laundry room looks fantastic now. All I have left to do is go through 2 bags of mismatched socks (I went through a period of just buying more socks instead of finding the match so I have bags of socks now, lol) but I will sort through them, probably tomorrow, and get them put away. So for the rest of the day I'll be reading my new Saving Dinner book (some of the recipes look so great and I can't wait to try them) and then I'll make dinner around 4 pm, watch AI tonight and that is really about it. Boring huh? But it's been raining most of the day now so it's a good day to stay inside and do nothing, lol. What do you have planned?
Michelle, how was your french toast? Is that allowed on SB? I only ask because you said it was a splurge and I have no idea what is allowed or not on that diet. I say take a nap! lol, your house will wait for you. :) Goodness knows when I am tired I take my nap and then get things done afterward when I have more energy.

Well, just wanted to pop in and say hello. I'm off to add more things to my wish list on amazon.com. I've really become addcited to that site lately, lol. TTYL!

Thought this was cute and wanted to share:

The 8th grade science teacher, Mrs. Parks, asked her class, "Which human
body part increases to 7 times its normal size when stimulated?" No one
answered until little Mary stood up, angry, and said, "You should not be
asking 8th graders a question like that! I'm going to tell my parents, and
they will go and tell the principal, who will then fire you!"

With a sneer on her face, she then sat back down. Mrs. Parks ignored her
and asked the question again, "Which body part increases to 7 times its
normal size when stimulated?" Little Mary's mouth fell open; then she said
to those around her, Boy, is she gonna get in big trouble!" The teacher
continued to ignore her and said to the class, "Anybody?"

Finally, Kevin stood up, looked around nervously, and said, "The body part
that increases 7 times its size when stimulated is the pupil of the eye."
Mrs. Parks said, "Very good, Kevin," then turned to Mary and continued "As
for you, young lady, I have three things to say: "One" You have a dirty
mind, "Two" you didn't read your homework; and "Three" one day you are
going to be very, very disappointed."

A new thread was started. See you there.
