Sugar, 15 years??? really? Did you dye it grey??? I just got back from the bank where one of the tellers told me I looked tired. Geez. I hate that. I wasn't tired, but once you get old like me you look it. This is after the conversation (while watching extreme makeover) w/ my DH yesterday in which he asked me what new cosmetic surgery I was interested in. I wasn't interested in any, but now I think he must think I need it. I asked him what he thought I would want - I had in mind lasik eye surgery, but he came up with "fix your neck and eyelids". Aaaaarrrrrggggghhhhhhhhh!!! Sob.
I want to be thin even though it would make my sags and bags even saggier and baggier. I'm thinking of becoming a recluse and never leaving my house. I have no fun things planned for the weekend. DH is going fishing on Saturday, even tho he just got back from a week long vacation. By himself. Without his wife. I think he's going to take me out to dinner tonight and I plan on having several margies. Several. Maybe I will plan a bbq w/ friends on Saturday night. I need some fun. Guess I need to make my own. |
I want you to come and have fun with me, Wabbit. And anyone else who's available. I actually went to the trouble of calling some folks to see if they'd like to go out for margies tonight and they were busy. And that was the only couple I could think of. I'm so pitiful. Here it is 6 PM and I'm not doing anything tonight. DH and I are sitting here trying to get rid of adware on our computers. You'd think people would be lining up to socialize with us..... ;)
I'm thinking of going to the Common Ground fair this weekend -- it's trés organic. Have a good weekend, everyone. Kiwi P.S. Bagz, it's true I haven't gotten below 155 or so since I was pregnant 16+ years ago, but I used to be a 125 lb chicky. Sad eh? I blame DH :devil: |
Wabbs, what a cruel and unusual thing for your DH to say...... Does he need the rest of us to come bonk him on the head and tell him the "right" thing to say is "You look beautiful to me just the way you are"? or to tell him what surgeries we'd like HIM TO GET? :devil: :devil: :devil:
I have managed to lose a few pounds during and after vacation. I might make me believe in religion... except I don't think anything but physics (Weight = Bulk + calories - exertion) were at work. I certainly wouldn't want to think that anything Almighty were being DELIBERATE about Ivan or Jeanne or Iraq or Haiti, or EVEN the Dems and Reps. humph. Hope the margies are adequate Kiwi -- you've inspired me to get some rum and mint! oh, and splenda :D :D |
Here's the good news: I am now actually at the start weight shown in my sig.
The bad news? It's been several months getting back there. :ink: :ink: The fair we're going to tomorrow only sells organic food and beverages. Apparently there will be no cotton candy. Unless of course it is made with Maine maple syrup. Actually I had some of that last year at the Folk Festival. Mmm Organic Junk Food! No coffee though, unless someone is growing organic coffee beans in this state. Seems unlikely, but caffeine is a powerful motivator! :moo: We're going to see the Draft Horse competition and the Oxen Log Scooting Contest and the Harry S. Truman Manure Pitch-Off! And if we play our cards right, we might be able to catch the seed cleaning demonstrations! :chicken: Y'all have fun, y'hear? Kiwi |
Kiwi-- That's is the WEIRDEST bunch of stuff I've ever heard, and I thought Texas was peculiar. We are , apparently, having a big success selling fried marshmallows though... with or without chocolate. I think there have been cow-chip tossing contests in the past, but I don't know who they were named for. I liked the pig races when i went to the Calif. state fair once. I prefered the sheep competition.... what a yarn that was....
heh heh. |
Hellllllllllllllllp
kiwonkers!!!---------i would LOVE The organic fair----------very cooool---i had maple syrup cappucino once and it was to die for!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!okay peachers--do you remember the uptown "market" in my town---i am pretty sure we walked through it-=-----i can't remember if kiwonk walked through or not----at any rate,i am negotiating with a gift shop owner in the market---- i may BUy the space she inhabits----------then i will be a "gift shop owner"---ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-----i am SCARED out of my wits--------i would be able to sell my stained glass,paintings,etc and those of my friends AND i would have to go the atlantic craft trade shows and the Toronto Gift Show to access wholesalers etc-------I HAVE BEEN OUT OF THE WORKFORCE SO LONG I AM HAVING A PANIC ATTACK,YET I AM THRILLED WITH THE POSSIBILITIES....................OLD FAT COW IS HAVING A COW........................... :o :o :o :o :o :( :( :(

Bagzz... HOW EXCITING If you decide to carry yarn as well, be sure to let me know so my daughter and I can put you on our itinerary.
Have many of you met each other? :cofdate: It sounds like fun... even maple lattes (I usually like hazelnut or vanilla) I am feeling lonely these days. :stress: (Probably why the hershey nuggets can be heard at an ultrahigh frequency that only dogs are supposed to be able to hear).... DH hasn't felt well, and I've allowed myself to heavily rely on him for entertainment... so now I've switched my "neediness" to the net and clients... that doesn't have a happy ending. hmm. better do something about THAT! :nono: Tomorrow is Monday how did that happen?:stress: Good luck cowies. Enjoy the almost full moon. |
Bagzie!!!! That sounds so exciting!!! I'd be scared too, but what new thing like that isn't scarey? Sometimes you just have to close your eyes and jump in.
Painty, I haven't "met" any one here. Unless you count yapping away every single day for ---geez, I don't even remember how many years. I live on the wrong coast, but those eastern cows have gotten together in 3-d. We did go out to dinner friday night, I did have a margie (I exaggerate my drinking ability) and DH didn't go fishing Saturday. He went fishing Sunday, but that was ok because I was shopping w/ a friend that day and when he came back we took a lovely nap and then he took me out to dinner. Saturday we did household cleanup stuff and then visited some friends and drank some yummy wine and then came home and some other friends stopped by and hung out until late. So even though I was all set for a bad weekend, it turned out pretty nice. Kiwi, your organic fair sounds like a blast! That's just the kind of thing ppl around here like to go to. |
Hi everybody!
I got kindof busy and didn't get back...(I'm at work, sitting at my desk eating some leftover green beans and a chicken/noodle thing I made for dinner last night....not very inspiring..) Anyhow, my computer at home is hiccuping as well; seems like every time I get online I get booted off. We have DSL too; it seems to me that a NEW computer is JUST the thing I'd LOVE to see under the Christmas tree...... Anyway.. I got seduced by a couple of Halloween chocolate goodies yesterday.. fortunately they were the 'fun size' so I don't feel TOO badly. This morning just as I was thinking I should have worn a longer top with these jeans ( to cover my JLo butt) a friend told me that I look great and so much slimmer and how well I'm doing losing! So--true or not--it made me feel better!!! Amazing, isn't it, how little it takes to encourage me to stay away from the Lure of Fattening Food. We had a small earthquake this morning... somewhere between us and LA. Somebody came down the hall and pointed out that the stuff in my ofc window was still swinging--then I realized that's why my computer had been moving and I'd felt kindof dizzy/queasy. Weird. ( I knew it'd been too long since yesterday's sugar for that to have affected me.... lol) Well my food is almost gone (what a relief--really boring lunch) so I'd better stop babbling and get back to work. WORK! Have a great day! =) |
Oh dear; I have a very bad feeling. I've been keeping an eye on airline prices without booking reservations for Christmas, because it seemed that they kept going down. So now I'm not finding flights on the days we have to fly! Good grief, it's only September! Da** school system really screwed us up good this year: they changed the vacation schedule drastically(I looked that; that really is how you spell it...) so that the kids only get 2 days off before Christmas. Then they scheduled the high school Christmas concert on the Tuesday of that week. Meaning we only have 3 days we can travel on, one of which is a school day and one of which is Christmas Eve for heaven's sake.
The Organic fair was very cool. It was a gorgeous day -- we both got sunburns. We learned about mushroom foraging, we watched sheepdog demonstrations, draft horse contests, lots of animals, plants, much fiber spinning, weird food items etc. And drumming. Lots of drumming. Not as hippie-ish as you might have thought. I think mainly because all of these people work very hard at what they do and don't have all that much time for dancing barefoot in the field.... :lol: I'll be back later. Gotta go pick up the kid. Kiwi |
Kiwi, hope you get the tickets you need. Where is home for Christmas for you? I forgot. Carolinas? I'm planning on doing Thanksgiving dinner at home for my immediate family. As in DS, DD, DH, DS's gf, Grandpa Jim a few misc. friend's of my kid's, and me. I bought the cutest cornstalk taper candles. Can't believe it's already time to think of the holidays again.
Choca, no earthquakes here, but Mt. St. Helens is grumbling again. The last time she erupted was the year DD was born. That should have been an omen. Painty, Lonely seems to be the plague of women. We get too busy taking care of our families, and all of the sudden they're grown. We should look on it as a luxury to have the time to get lonely or bored. Except that it's sooooo lonely and boring. :dizzy: |
ooog!
OK, let's get the whining and complaining out of the way first : I can't sleep because it's a full moon, the dirty clothes in my laundry room come up to my knees and I spent yesterday singlehandedly keeping the feminine hygiene industry afloat. So there. :p
Today I'm in a much better mood, if it wasn't for this RAGING :headache: which stems directly from this morning's meeting of the Library Ladies. It's Baldwin the Bookworm's first birthday in February, you know, and of course they want to go overboard and do stuff involving 365 candles made out of wine corks, 20 sheet cakes with icing and various hilariously fun activities. I think I signed myself up for something but I have no idea how to do it. I wasn't the only one who got a headache. Going back next week for more, of course because what else is there to do in this place? Huh? Huh? Bagzieee!! You're going to be a businesswoman!!! Just the thought of doing something like that scares me spitless, but it's totally your thing. You can do it. You'll be famous! Mummy and Dad got back from their trip to Oregon and I sent and e-mail to ask how it was and get this back: "Just wrote you a long letter but the computer ate it. Grrr! Must go watch Sopranos now. No time to write. " That was three days ago. Hmphhh! You know those retired people. Always on the go. I'm changing my official starting weight to 160 (when I get around to it) and getting serious about exercising. TOO many fat rolls around the middle, thank you very much. This will not do at all. Peachy - did you get hit by Jeanne too? Worried about yas. |
Sug, can I whine too? I've got the headache and Aunt Flo's visiting here too. Misery loves company, I guess.
|
You go ahead and whine right along with me, Wabby. Must be the full moon thing. I took two extra strength Advil migraine thingies today and it's still there. Anyone else want to join in?
Found out why Mummy hadn't written. My aunt came out from back east to whine and complain about my dad's no good brother (74!) who left her for a hairdresser, my sil got strep throat and had to leave 3 yr old grandson with my parents while they were already looking after divorced brother's 8 and 12 yr old granddaughters, and father of 3 yr old (still married but just barely) went out on a hike with a female buddy of his from work and didn't get home until 10:30 at night and couldn't be reached on his cell phone. I think he's grounded for the next 6 months. :lol: Wouldn't you all just love to have such an exciting life? Must go fold laundry. |
I'm having a sympathetic headache with you all even though I don't have my period.
Wow, Sugar, I had to read that saga twice to get it all straight. Apparently your parents should have prolonged their vacation ;) Golly, is it Blippy the Bookworm's birthday already? Whatever will I get him... Your library cronies are nuts. They need some crisis or other to keep their minds occupied. How about an attack of termites in the Biography section? I'm all excited about Bagz' new career!! I need a career. No I don't. Ohmygod, is it really almost Thanksgiving? I can't deal. Good luck with the family dinner, Wabbit. If we can't find decent flights to NC for Christmas, we might change our minds and go for Thanksgiving, I suppose. Not that we've been invited, but when did that ever stop me? I can't possibly wait till next summer to see my sweet little niece again--I really want to spend Christmas with them. Well, we'll work something out, I'm sure. We could always drive--we have 3 drivers now. kiwi |
Your poor parents, Sugar, but oh, wouldn't it be nice to have someone like that to dump your family on everytime a crisis arose? Maybe you should move them over to Germany. I was always the person that other ppl dropped their kids off on.
DD bought herself a darling little red weiner dog. Her name is Katey and she's adorable. This is my introduction to grandmotherhood. I can spoil her and never have to worry about housetraining. And also in the dog news department - DS's girlfriend's mother raises Himalayan Mountain dogs. One of her mommy dogs had an emergency c-section and DS did artifical respiration on one of the puppies and managed to get it breathing. They were only able to save 2 puppies out of a litter of 6, so he was quite the hero. My headache is still with me. It will be a take out dinner night. |
What a coincidence! I had a darling little red weiner for dinner last night!
Cool about your ds's life-saving! I never heard of a Himalayan Mtn dog. Poor little puppies. I'm eating jello. It's good. I haven't made jello in years, but last night I just needed me some jello. kiwi |
