  • Leigh..are you about halfway to goal now? That's where I am so I don't get this self defeating actions on my part! I did ride 15.5 miles on my bike this morning.
  • Hi Ladies!

    I'M BACK!!! Did ya miss me???

    LOL I was gone for one whole day huh? LOL

    I am so dead beat b/c we just got in a little while ago so I will catch up in the morning!

    Have a wonderful night!




  • Hey guys I got home from work a little bit ago. I made a few dolls/sigs for you I'll make some more tomorrow I'm just too tired. I can do Geri and Mel and Di because I know what they look like lol anyway if anyone wants one just let me know.

    We had to take Tay to the ER tonight she got a fever of 105.6 it came down with the tylenol and motrin but after it wears off it goes back up. Anyway the doc said that they think she just has some sort of virus that is going around. Well DUH!! lol

    Anyway I'm exhausted and heading to bed!

  • Morning!
    Good morning gals! Hmm . . . not sure if I'll be OP today or not

    Cindi- I'm glad Sami/y is now a member of the family! I bet the kids are excited. I think yours and Jill's reward-buddy system sounds like a fun, motivational idea.

    Geri - hope MIL is okay! Keep us fille din on that one. Don't worry too much about WI today. I'm not looking forward to mine on Friday either, but maybe it's better to know Also, maybe your excerciuse efforts will pay off!

    Penny- we did miss you!

    Michelle- how is Taylor feeling this morning? That's nerve-wracking! I love my little picture/name you made for me! I'm going to try and get it in my signature without asking help first

    QOTD: What place/places have you enjoyed living and why?

    me- Florida and Atlanta. I love Florida - the heat, the ecclectic people and landscape . . . the beaches. I had great friends and experiences in FL. Atlanta- I absolutely love living here. We have phenomenal friends, it's vibrant, usually warm, and southern - I love the south!
  • Michelle, How's Tay? Thats terrible. 105.6!!! Abigail had that with the flu one time. 5 days with that temp. And Tyenol and Motrin only brought it to 104.5. I hope he's ok now.

    Cindi and Jill. Penny and I have a goal each Friday. If we don't meet it we send each other .50. At then end of 10 weeks if we lose 10...doubling our goal, then we have to send each other a bottle of nail polish. If one makes weight and the other doesn't. Then that .50 cents double for those five weeks to 5.00. at the end. So you have time to catch up if you don't make the .5lb lose per week. .5lbs a week should be easy and if you don't make it, you can catch up to the end. If you don't your out 5.00. Kind of confusing I know. So basically, If you lose 5 lbs in 10 weeks you don't pay anything, if you lose 10 lbs you get nail polish as a bonus. If you don't make weekly weight you pay .50cents. If you don't make final weight of 5lb loss, you pay five bucks.

    Geri, great job on the 15miles! HOpe your MIL is ok.


    Hey everyone, I know once I post, someone will have snuck in on me.
  • QOTD....I always lived in Jersey. I have lived all over Jersey. So, I'd have to say I like where I live now the best.
  • Good morning Melissa!
    Michelle- I did it!!! Thank you. Now if my figure could only actually look like that
  • Morning all. Not in the greatest mood. Andrew slept awful and I don't really know why. He acts like he doesn't feel good, but he's not really stuffy and only coughing sometimes, not to where it should be keeping him awake. So I tried to sleep in this morning, that would be 7 AM. And he woke up even crankier than last night. I'm staying home all day and resting as much as I can. I just put his butt back in his bed and he can be cranky in there instead of in here. I don't here him now, so maybe he went back to sleep, of course I can't, I've got others to feed and so on.
    Sorry to go on and on about that.
    Michelle, those sigs are so cute. I wish I could do things like that. I'm so sorry to hear that about Tay. Alisa always runs a high fever when she's sick. One time, I think she was around a year or maybe more, it got up to over 104. I took her into just the doc and they said nothing was wrong, it was a nurse practioner, which they didn't tell me over the phone that. So nothing was wrong with a temp of over 104. The next night it did hit or almost hit 105 so we took her into the emergency the following morning and she had an inner ear infection and something else with the ears and bronchitis. She showed NO signs of bronchitis, but that's what it was. Needless to say I never went back to that other doc. It was terrible. I hope she gets better.
    Leigh, I'll keep my fingers crossed that you'll be OP today.
    Penny, wow it was wierd to not see you around here much yesterday. Hope all is well.
    Mel, hope you have a good day.
    QOFD: I've lived in Texas my whole life. I've lived here in Terrell since I was 5 years old and I live a couple of miles from the house that I actually grew up in. So I'm within a few miles and in the same community that I've always lived in. Now this is a beautiful area and being in Terrell, I probably couldn't choose another area. But I've never lived ANYWHERE. If I hadn't gotten married, I think I would have moved. I'm one of those that would love to try NY for a while, then FL, then Montana and so on and so on. But I'm sure I'll be here forever and forever more.

    When is Spryng coming back? I figured she came in yesterday, maybe we'll here from her today.

    I might hear something about the house today. We didn't hear anything last week so we'll see. Dh's b-day is Wednesday. He'll be 26 but he hates b-days anyways, we always make a big deal of it though, he just has to deal with it.
    I hope you all have a great day. I've got some things to do but mostly just lay back and try to get some sleep.

  • Good Morning Gals! Sorry - I told ya, I am so bad at posting on the weekends. Just to much stuff to do! I don't even really get to the computer! IF I do get there, its enough time to read the posts and get off!
  • I meant to write, that I will be back this afternoon to get personal, when dd is sleeping...she distracted me and I just hit "post" before writing that! haha! Have a great morning everyone!

    P.s. Michelle I love those little siggy girls, and the sparkly name! Too cute, wish you could show me how to do that stuff....I'm computer restricted, only can do so much!
  • just checking in. I hope everyone else is having a good day. Mine sucks totally. Thank goodness I feel good other than being tired. I've got Andrew crankier than all get out and oh yeah, he climbed out of his bed this morning, I mean totally climbed out all by himself. That's not good. Ally keeps getting an attitude with me and I already warned my girls that I'm not in a good mood, not to mess with me. For some reason, I've got a calmness today, I'm not putting up with any BS. I warned the girls and told them that was their warning for the entire day. If they do anything to make me mad, I'm just gonna spank or make them clean or something, whatever I feel like at the time.
    I've got Avon to do, school stuff to do, I've got to clean the house somewhat, I'm still in pj's, and I want to crochet. So I'm gonna try to chill and take this day one step at a time.
    I'm not trying to get self pity, but this is the place to vent, right???TTYL
  • Good Morning girls

    I would have to say for the QOTD That of all the places I have lived I like Montana the best. I loved Boston when I was young and didn't have children, but the town I live in now is just right and a great place to raise a family.

    Crystal I hope that your day gets better I hate those days when I feel really moody. Feel better. I'll send you some virtual Calgon lol. If you want a siggy let me know I'll whip one up for you. I'm addicted

    Kristen if you post a pic of yourself I can make you a siggy too

    Spryng are you home yet? Can't wait to hear from you!

    Well Taylors Temp was 102.3 this morning and Teagans is now under 100 so hopefully the fevers will stay down!! Taylors poor eyes are glazed over wicked bad and really bloodshot and they get teary and she is congested hopefully it will go away soon!

    Well have a great day I gotta get my girls settled down lol I'll TTYL

  • Hello Everyone! Well I’m in a sucky mood today soooo only a short post for right now.. I didn’t exercise yesterday but for maybe 15 minutes. I was trying to exercise my bad mood away… and stop the emotional eating.. But the chocolate donuts won… so that sucked. Plus I had some chocolate icecream and a medium frosty from Wendy’s.. I hate men… why are they here?!? What is their point in life? Why didn’t those jerk’s Mom’s raise them better? I just don’t know. Well so far today I havent exercised and I don’t feel like it either. I feel like sitting around and being a bumb.. Laying in the bed all day… or on the couch. And I think that’s just what I’m gonna do…. After I go return my books, and stuff.. So I might come back later.. And I might not.. I might end up driving back to TX if things get any worse…It’s ashamed to be in such a beautiful city and not enjoy it…But no whining and complaining today… I’m just lay down and feel sorry for myself instead!! Maybe buy me some candy and eat it all!! I just don’t care today…. Anyways here’s a kool article I was emailed today…. For anyone who is interested….

    Well I gotta go get ready to have my “feel sorry for myself day!” Hey I havent had one of those days in a while…so here it is. Today’s my day off! I hope every is having a great day!!!


    P.S. Michelle.... I sure would like a sparkly name... or a dolly thingy.... If you feel up to it.. either one is fine... Can you make mine have a grump face!!!
  • Good morning everyone. I hope you all had a good weekend.
    Michelle, so sorry about your kids. I hope their fevers are waaaaaaaaaaay down today. My oldest ds had a fever of 106 one time, and we took him to the er. After being in the waiting room for 3 hours, his fever broke, and that was that. I did have a dr. tell me though that kids today have higher fevers. don't know why that is.
    Crystal, I hope you have a better day. It can only get better from here.
    Kristen, glad to here from you.
    Melissa,Penny, Leigh, Jill, Geri, and anyone I missed, hello.
    Spryng, where are you? did you have a good time?
    QOTD: I have only lived in two places, here and Lawrence, Kansas. I have to say I like here better.
    Today is my birthday, and dh let me sleep when he got up at three. So nice of him. He also bought me a new toe ring. I can't wait to get it. He got it off of ebay, and its really pretty. When I get it, I will post a pic at the moms losing weight site. Michelle, those dolls and signatures are so cute. I might get brave enough to post a pic of me. Anyway, have a great day ladies.
  • Jaymi, you snuck in on me. I hope you have a great day, and that things get better for you.
