Angie we grilled burgers for supper, with cheese and all the fixings. Chips, soda, I don't think I did that great. Did you watch Who Wants to Marry My Dad Last night, anyone? Damn, I am hooked on another stupid reality show.
Noelle I been trying to talk my husband to moving to HI. I said get odd jobs for a year and then become a policeman. You know I love your state has everything to offer, coconut, coffee, macadamia nuts, fresh fruits and veggies, fish, and especially the tanned men in uniform of course! Sassy me !!!! My hus would kill me if he knew I was talking like this. Oh well, I gotta have fun somehow. I go to this Paula/Simon site and someone dedicated a video to them of little clips of them and it is to the song The Way by our lovely Clay Aiken. And it is so romantic. I got my hus to watch about thirty seconds of it and he walked away. What a dork ! I said look at the way he touches her and kisses her. Now thats love. I told him I love Simon and asked him if that bothered him and he just walked away. Well I do for crying out loud, I think he is soooo sexy! And I heard alot of naughty things about him ! Well I am getting to carried away. I better go clean up the kitchen. Julie
Sorry for not saying Helllllllloooooooooooooo to everyone else. Kempy I would love a vacation! You are so lucky but deserve it. But I think I deserve it too, two kids, hus, house and a pain in the neck family is enough for one !
Well Dad has got the kids at the park so I am going to blast some music and clean! Julie
AAUURRGG!!!! Well, I don't see the 3lbs goal happeneing. Now I have added another 2 on top of those. I JUST DON'T GET IT!!! I feel that I am really trying to watch what goes into my mouth but I guess I am just not doing enough. It is relaly upseting me that I could not reach a 3 lbs goal. It isn't like it is to high of a numbre for a goal. AAUURRGG!!!! :end rant:
Hey Kempy, I feel for ya. I know how hard it is to be doing all that you can and seeing nothing happening. Just rest assured that you are working your butt off and trying to lose it and that is all that you can do. You know how hard it gets when we get really close to be where we want to be too. The scales just dont like to move for us. It will happen. Just try and relax and enjoy your birthday and then move on from there. You only turn 30 once, you might as well have fun,right?
Julie, You are in love with Simon? Arent you a naughty one. I like his voice. It sounds neat.
I got my hair cut today so I can look somewhat human for the party. Well, I had better get some cooking done. I will check back later.
Hey girls just a quick little hello and stress release ! It is almost 2:00 again and I have not eaten lunch. Work around the house has just been crazy today....dd, when I went to get her out of her crib she was soaked head to toe with pee, sorry tmi....so I had to bathe her, scrub her mattress do all of her bedding and clean her dolls and washed her stuffed animals , and I am still doing more laundry now. Sorry for the b****ing. As you all know the work never ends. I was thinking I wish I could find a job and have my hus stay home. But I could not find one with the money he makes plus insurance. Somedays I think I really do work my butt off harder than he does. In fact I know I do!! But don't get me wrong I love my kids soooo much and feel lucky to be with them.
Angie how did you get your hair done? I bet it looks cute. I need one really bad too, but my hairdresser just moved so I have to find her! What are you making for dinner? I might make a frozen pizza . I need something easy. And yes I am naughty for being in love with Simon. I heard his amazing in the you know what dept. . God I am so bad. Sorry God for talking the way I do !!
Sorry Kempy, about the three pounds. I want to do something new to rev up my metabolism too. I should be excercising more or doing a different kind of excercises. But just remember you are beautiful. Okay? try not to get to down on yourself.
Noelle at least you had some fruit for breakfast right? Gotta think positive I guess. Hope you are having a great HI day sweetheart!!
Hi Cal and Summer gotta run more crap to do. And on top of everything my dad might be bringing his new girlfriend over tonight so I have got to get this place picked up somehow, lol. Check in later. Julie
oh gosh Julie, I remember the pee morning. Yuck. I had 2 at a time so sometimes it was double yuck. I dont miss the diaper changes and puking either. haha Brittany was like a projectile(sp) vomitor when she was a baby. She puked on every single outfit she ever owned and a few of ours. haha
I am making Fathers Day breakfast for supper tonight. It is easy and I have my neice for the night so it is cheap as well.
Kempy, I found a dog on Petfinder that was listed as urgent so I called the rescue group to see about her and she is in Louisiana. They want $325.00 for her adoption fee. Isnt that a little steep to save a dogs life? How about half that and you can still afford her. I feel so bad for her because she is probably going to get euthanized. But I cant spend that kind of money and then find out she hates kids,dogs,cats,etc.
I ordered DSL today. I cant wait. My computer makes it so hard to get on here that I swear I waste 5 or 10 minutes just trying to get to this page. It is so annoying.
Kempy, I know you are gone for the weekend after today so Make sure you have a good one okay? and we will see you bright and early Monday. My package should be there in a couple more days too.
Angie and Kempy, I put packages in the mail to ya both~~should arrive by Tuesday at the lastest i would think. Angie, DSL?
Julie, you domestic Goddess, you are so awesome and I know those kids love you for it. I bet if you did go out and work you'd be thinking about the little ones all day wishing you could get home to them--I know I do . Anyway, let me know if hubby ever agrees to the move
Kempy, I agree w/Ang, you have been pretty steady w/your weight throughout--I know it's not much of a consolation when all you want to do is lose...but at least you haven't ballooned up like me! You're all beautiful inside and out.
Cal, I asked my sis to forward my itinerary again so i should know soon my travel dates...
I would like to get to bed early tonight but I doubt it. Just can't fall asleep until around midnight. Plus we are having terrible storms here right now. Tornados have been touching down here about 40 miles south of us. Right now I do not hear the tornado sirens going off, but it is suppose to hail, and have extremely high winds, but hopefully no tornados . Anyway had bratwaurst and sauerkraut and onions, baked beans, cornbread. Just way to much to eat. Noelle about the high fiber thing, it seems to fill me up for longer periods of time. I have alot of stomach problems, I don't know whats wrong but just trying to find a solution. Maybe a vacation to somewhere tropical this winter would do the trick .
Angie you must have had days where you wanted to pull your hair out. But you made it so far and they sound like good kids. Well here comes the thunder and lightening, going to go watch the sky for a little bit and pick up and try to get into bed. Good Night Girls. Julie
Julie, I hope you had a safe night last night. Tornado sirens. I have been hooked on Storm stories on the weather channel lately and all they have been doing is tornados. I can not imagine having to worry about something like that. SCARY!!! We dont have tornados up here thank god. Maine might be in the middle of nothing but at least the crime is low and we dont have tornados or earthquakes or any poisonous animals. I guess that is countered by the fact that noone lives here and the pay is low.
Yeah, I think my kids are good kids when it really counts.I am just so glad they are almost teens because then they are so close to being grown up and then comes the real fun....GRANDKIDS!!! I will make the best grandmother because the kids can go home after I am done playing with them.
Noelle, You didnt have to do anything for my birthday. Just being my friend is gift enough. I know it sounds cheesy but it is true. You guys are my best friends.
I am making a conscious effort to get movin and improvin on Monday morning. My party is Saturday and I will have 6 months before we leave for Florida. If I stick with it I should be able to lose a good chunk of my weight gain before we leave. I know that I dont want to be 60 pounds heavier than I am now by then and if I dont start now that will be a reality.
I downloaded a ton of songs from I-tunes and I realized that my taste in music varies alot. I did
Dont Stop By Fleetwood Mac.
Forever and for always by Shania Twain.
Roses by Outkast.
Tipsy by Jkwon,
F@#* it by Eamon,
Dont Tell Me by Avril Lavigne,
The Reason by Hoobastank,
I miss you by Blink 182,
Where are we runnin? by Lenny Kravitz,
Hash Pipe by Weezer,
Fighter by Christina Aguilera,
Lady Marmalade,
Drift Away by Uncle Kracker,
Play by J-Lo,
Good Riddance by Green Day,
Pour Some Sugar on Me, By Def Leppard
I dont want to miss a thing by Mark Chesnut.
I couldnt find the song We aint nothing but mammels. Does anyone know who sings it and what it is actually named. You know the one where the guys are dressed up like monkeys. It was popular a few years ago on MTV.
I tried to find Hey Mickey (your so fine your so fine you blow my mind, HEY MICKEY) too. I have some weird taste, huh? The kids heard it on an oldies station while we were in Florida and they actually liked it too.
Angie I love Def Lepard and all those 80 groups, like Motley Crue and other crazy 80's songs. Now I can just imagine you think I look like a biker chick . Hey there is nothing wrong with biker chicks , I think they are cool, chaps and all ! No, really I am not a biker. I do like a huge variety of music though. I love the song Amazed by Lonestar, By Your Side by Sade, and I must admit even a little bit of hip hop. I remember that Monkey Song and I laughed so hard when I heard it! I also love Hey Mickey Your So Fine You Blow My Mind Hey Mickey, it is stuck in my head . But anyway I will try and find out who sings that monkey song.
Well tornados did not hit us but south of us they got alot of damage, they has been so much rain the last two months flooding has been terrible here. Knock on wood I hope my basement stays dry. Well better go clean up breakfast. Talk to you all later. Julie
How are you all? Sorry it's been a few days - craziness is the name of the game lately.
Julie - stay safe lady! ohmigosh! I cannot imagine what a tornado siren sounds like I would probably my pants if I heard one...I wouldn't know what to do. In upstate New York all we worry about is SNOW. That is like a 4 letter word this time of year. Maybe a small quake now and then but - just stay safe and keep being the domestic goddess that you are. I had lots of digestive issues too but the doctor told me to lower my intake of white flour and get some more veggies and fruit and it was rough the first week but I feel so much better now.
Angie I am queen of the obscure when it comes to music - I like alot of things - here is a quick example: Thelonious Monk - Chicagoland blues, Mississippi Biker Boys - Delta Sound, Amazing - George Michael, Gentleman - Mae Moore, Dead Man Walking - David Bowie, 6 Underground - Sneaker Pimps, Here's to tonight - Eve 6, Snow on the Sahara - ANngun, Habibti - Ahmed Quadil, Whole lotta love - Led Zepplin, Crunk -OutKast, Portraits - Miles Davis - but I am a huge CD whore -550 last counted. kinda crazy
Kempy you are amazing. School, work, marriage and family and maintaining your weight. Bravo girlfriend! I had plateaued for such a long tiome the scale is finally moving down again because I am more aware of what I am eating - I have this program called Diet Power that is amazing and they let you do a free trial. It is food and exercise logger - amazing! I was eating alot more than I realized... but if and when you have time check it out...
Noelle - Aloha! Move to Hawaii? Anytime but I might be homeless at the cost of real estate there. How is the family and what is up for the weekend? Not another home show is there? You should not be so hard on yourself either you know......you are a strong and amazing women that is trying and has a life filled with so much - and you still check in here! I'd drink to that!
Cal have a safe trip Alaska and lots of fun!
My brother is graduating this weekend from high school I remember changing his diapers...I digress...anyways...my sister is coming in from KY and lots of friends and family so it should be a full and wonderful weekend!
I hope everyone has the same.

Well, I made it on for today. Barly though. I think I was asleep on the sofa earlier so I popped up and came in the office to say hi. I just let the dogs out to go to the bathroom and now I can't get them back in. In fact I can't seen to find them. It is kind of creepy out there too right now. There is a serious amount of frog noise right now. I guess I should be more afraid of if it stopped huh?
Thanks for all of the kind words guys. I guess I just get a little down in the dumps sometimes. Thankfully I have you to pick me up.
Angie and Noelle thank you for sending something but you know that you didn't have to. It makes me feel good though knowing that you thought about me.
Alright, I need to go yell for the dogs again. I bet my neighbors love that. I'll try to pop on tomorrow.
