Hey girls

Cherie I wish you were feeling better. And sleeping better. Are the girls going with their Dad this weekend? It sounds like you are really having a wide range of weather....I would take it over mine though. It has finally reached twenty degrees and freezing rain for tomorrow. If it would reach sixty I think I would lay out in the sun .

Well just checking to see if anyone is here or was here. I am so glad its Friday. Even though I don't work out of the house it is nice to get a break from the kids on the weekend. Everyone was not kidding when they said they are a 24/7 job . I just want to sleep in and let my poor dry hands rest. They are bleeding they are so dry. I might go pick up eucerin(sp?) lotion this weekend. Swiss Ives is not doing the job . Well anyway I am so motivated to get ten pounds off of my body. I don't know if I am going to do a weigh in tomorrow because I think I have gained. But I got a good round of cardio in this morning. So I think I will end with that positive note . Hope to see you guys here.

HEY!!!! I just got back from buying some stuff for the bakery and now I have to go get some work done. I will check back later.

Cherie, Get better Babe!!

Julie, My hands are cracked now too.

Hi Angie glad you got some more stuff for the bakery!! It must feel so exciting with it all coming together.

Hi everyone else.

Noelle and Kempy if you read this just a little afternoon coffee talk, haha....remember the guy Leroy Wells that was the last person to audition on AI, the african american man who was like bouncing off the walls and you couldn't even understand him? Well he was in jail when it was on TV. He has charges for pot and drugs and firing a deadly weapon. I just new that guy was trouble, funny....but trouble. Haha....

Leroy Wells...hmmm, he had to be on something during his audition. That guy was just too out there.

Not much going on today except for trying to get all my invoices posted and paid for the end of the month. The kids are off school today including my 12 y.o. niece so I snuck away from the house to get this paperwork done then I'll be heading home early for a little afternoon delight. Oh wait, Rick's not gonna be there . I have that song stuck in my head after watching the movie Anchorman w/Will Ferrell. My throat doesn't hurt anymore but I've got this irritating sinus thing going on that gives me a headache toward the afternon--that's when I need my meds and a nap

Julie, I'm using an Aveeno intense relief hand cream right now. I have really dry skin on my hands which crack and bleed sometimes. My derm told me that the Neutrogena hand cream was one of the best. I used it for a while but it was a little greasy for me. I like this Aveeno one, it goes on and doesn't feel tacky or greasy, and is suppose to moisturize for 24 hours (it does!) and last through hand washing.

(((Cherie))), hugs girl. You're entitled to a funky mood every once in a while. Just ride it out. I'm glad to see you posting though, we were starting to worry about ya.
Try and have a restful weekend and get better soon.

Angie, I like shiny and new stuff. Can't wait to see what you're gonna do with your store. Are you still serving your regular clients through your new store or is that gonna change?

Gotta go for now but hello to all and I'll be back later. Have a good one.

Noelle I hope your cold gets better. Sinus pain in really terrible. Keep taking your medicines and call the doctor if you think you need an antibiotic. I hope little Michael doesn't get sick. Maybe I will have to check out the Aveeno stuff. I know I don't like the stuff either that feels like grease on your hands. Thanks

Hey, I can't post much today. We have friends coming in for the weekend so i wont be on for a few days. I wanted to pop on and let you guys know where I was. I will get back on as soon as I can. Chat with ya soon.

Good Night Girls

I am soooo tired I am going to try and turn in early. Dh surprised me with steaks when he came home from work. That was really sweet of him. They were lean yet still moist. We grilled them outside. And he also bought some shrimp, so we had shrimp cocktail. Overall an OP day for me. I feel kind of run down. Probally just lack of sleep, went to bed to late and dd was up at four . I hope she sleeps late tomorrow!! Well everyone have a wonderful weekend. I really don't have any plans. Dd wants to go to McDonalds or Dairy Queen. I won't be ordering anything though . Anyone have anything exciting planned?

Have fun Kempy with your friends this weekend. You and Joe sound like such wonderful entertainers.

Get better Noelle, Cherie, and Cal I hope that BP came down. Hi Angie and Summer.

Hey girls, I'm back in the Fr@#@!XXn' office right now. A little emergency came up and I had to go back. It's winding down now so I'll be heading back home. The only good news is that I'm childless this evening as my sis took Michael to her house to sleepover. I can have some peace and quiet finally!

Julie, your hubby is a sweetie for bringing you such a great dinner. Sounds like a good healthy low-fat and protein meal. No plans for me this weekend, except laundry--it's never ending! Have a restful night.

Kempy, enjoy your company.

Hope everyone enjoys their weekends I'll try and pop in tomorrow. Good night all.

Hey it is Saturday. My house has been hectic so far. Let's see....Corey has decided to move in with his grandparents so he can "have his own space" . He traded rooms with Brit a while back because he was always in with Alicia watching tv. I told him at the time to make sure that is what he really wanted because Brit wouldnt give up the room once she got it. She is a miserable little thing. haha Well, now he wants his own room and guess what I only have 3 bedrooms so he chose to move to his grammies. They live in the same town as us but it still hurts to know that he would choose his own room over living with his family. I figured I would let him try it if that is what he wants and maybe he will decide he would rather live with his family. I doubt it though because these are Jays parents and they spoil him rotton. That is why he goes to there house on weekends and vacations. As long as he is happy I guess.

Brit's fish died today. Poor old fishy. You guys may remember that I got him for her on her birthday the year I came here. I put him in a glass and sat him on the table at her surprise supper that night to see if she would notice him.(she didnt)

Oh yeah and if this weekend hasnt been miserable enough another deer committed suicide in front of the delivery car this morning and that is totalled now. Geesh, that is the third car that he has gone through since springtime with them damn deer. It is so unavoidable because he delivers at 3 in the morning and that is when they are running.

But hey on the bright side.....I won 12 bucks on a scratch ticket this morning. hahaha Jay said with the way his morning has been he better not scrath them.

I will check back in later. Have a fun weekend girls!!!

Hey girls I am scooping us from page two....like where is everyone? Sorry I did not get on yesterday, check in, but not to many posts yesterday so I didn't have to much to say.

Angie I bet Corey will back at home in no time. He will miss you and the pets. I am sorry, I can't imagine my son saying he wants to move out. But he will probally get ticked off at me someday and say it . Hang in there it must be hard. And you poor things three cars??? That is why I never like to drive home from my Dad's in the dark! Those things pop out of nowhere and run across the road. Thank God Jay was not hurt though. Congrats on winning the money, that would make my day .

Well Kempy hope you are having fun with your guests. And hi to everyone else. I have to figure out supper for tonight....I have no idea what to make. Kinda of in a pissy and depressed feeling mood. I can't take this weather anymore. Sorry for complaining about it again. It is just getting on my nerves. I want weather above 40 degrees. Probally *****y because I have not been on a darn vacation in eight years. I might start tanning at the end to middle of Feburary just to bring my mood up. I know it is not good for you but I heard it is great for winter blues. Well off to maybe watch some old home videos....I can't believe how younger I look. I feel like I am getting old watching those things . They are fun though because I love seeing the kids as babies.

Noelle forgot to say I hope you had a peaceful night. I am thinking about sending the kiddos to Grandma's for the night(maybe dh too) and just listen to silence . Hope you got caught up with the laundry. We did loads today too. Sheets, clothes, and shower curtains. Have a great Sunday.

Good Night Girls

Just realized tomorrow is the last day of January!! I am going to try for excercise and get extra water in this week!! Talk to you tomorrow .

Hello Girls,

I know the weekends are usually slow. I'm back to work tomorrow. Even though I've had the past week off, I don't feel that I've really rested. Hubbie is upset because he thinks the Dr should have given me 2 weeks. She would have, but I asked to try just 1 week. Dr did change the dosage of my meds and I do feel better. I've been pretty busy this weekend trying to get everything taken care of. We pulled all our savings and paid off nearly every bill we have. Right now we have only the house, car, and student loan. We paid off every credit card, the other car, and a couple of other things. Hubby thinks that will help take some stress off me. It does feel good knowing that I will not have any bills coming in the mail anymore; except household.

I'm going to start counting down to spring break soon. I know I've got it down to 3 weeks to Presidents' Day then 2 weeks after that. I do need a good vacation.

Hello to everyone; no time tonight to go back and read any posts from this weekend.

Have a great week.

Cal
