Good morning, ladies, :wave:

Cristi - I've been taking advantage of Penney's sales, too. Don't you just hate how sizes vary so much? There ought to be a law that a certain size is x number of inches, or something. I have about 3 sizes in my closet and the clothes are all the same in width!

Marti - aww, it's so sweet that she wanted you to say "I love you" for the bear she kept. Now you'll have to do one where she says it to you. Glad you got to spend some extra time with her. And you're right - housecleaning can wait.

Susan - Sprite is not a good fluid replenisher, toots, and you know it, lol. Nothing wrong with having some pop, though, as long as you get your wadder in, too. So chug-a-lug, sweetie! I'd be curious to hear what the judge thinks about Mike's situation.

Angie - I like to pull my hair back, too, in this hot weather. That's the only reason I'm leaving it longer since it's so much easier to take care of. So I guess they'll leave you the one ovary? Is the surgery scheduled yet? Let me know as soon as you know something, ok?

Well, ladies, I rearranged the living room furniture by myself yesterday to make room for the Gazelle once again. The couch is heavy as #$%^, but I got-r-done, lol. Then I managed to get the Gazelle carted up to the house by using my garden cart to help manuever it. Lol, what a sight! By the time I was done with all that, I only had enough strengh to use the thing 15 minutes, lol, and was darn proud of that!!

Need to do my shopping today. I'll be back later if I have the time.

Toodles,

Thank you all for the compliments. I thought i would post a pic of my car since i have talking about it all the time lol. We live way out in the country right now.. and i am trying to talk hubby into moving to town. That way i can go to the gym... walk the boardwalk..(that is how i lost all my weight when Nolan was a baby). Just be around more supportive people.. because it seems the poeple around me now are insensitive jerks!(sad thing is they are all family). But my dads side of the family live in town.. including my only living grandparent(grandma) and my dads 8 sisters and endless cousins ect. who all have weight problems.. so i know i could always find a walking partner..they are way more supportive because they understand.. and quite a few have lost a lot of weight and kept it off! OK i was going to do individuals.. but the baby wants me.. try to get back later.. ttfn xxoo

Good morning ladies~

Since it is so cold in the basement I am going to walk on the treadmill today. I know I won't do more than 20 mns. but it's a start-again! It's about 5-10 degrees cooler down here but while down here I literally freeze. Have to stop and go upstairs to warm up and then come back down. Anyway, also bought me a jug for water. One like I think it was Anita ?? bought at Wal-Mart, but got it at Walgreens this morning. Was curious if anyone has heard or tried the green tea gum. I saw a commercial for it and it said it is the same as drinking the green tea. Trying to get the yard watered really good since it is going to be another hot one. Can't wait to put in sprinklers in the front like we should have done to begin with. It will tear the yard up a bit but it will grow back and save me a LOT of time with the sprinkler, not too mention money on the water bill.

Marti~Jhanai is such a sweetie! And I have faith that you will quit smoking. Need to get my son to quit.

Susan~that is just the dumbest thing I have ever heard and I would go by what the lawyer said also. I know the clerk probably deals with a lot of issues and such, but who in their right mind would let a man have visitation with a little girl with having two restraints against him? MMmmmm, popcorn...I haven't had popcorn in a while. Last time me and DD went to the show I smuggled in my own. :sssh: A lot less calories and minus the fat.

Angie~the girl that cut my hair wanted to cut only about an inch but I wanted it shorter so she cut 2 inches. I really wanted it shorter than that but glad that I let her do just the 2 inches. I still have enough to pull back with just a few strips left on the sides. Know all too well about using the maxi pads. For two days of TOM I will go through about 24-36 and sometimes the cramping is horrible. The doc wanted to put me on birth control-she said it would help with TOM. Haven't had one this month so far :crossed: so guess it is going to get wacky again. Missing a few I can totally handle but then sometimes when it starts again they are bad.

Jane~I do love Penneys sales! I took back a bra, a pair of crop pants and a shirt that were too big and ended up with two pair of crop pants, three shirts and two bras! LOL this time I took the time to try them on so I wouldn't have to make a trip back to exchange more stuff. And yes I hate that about the sizes. It gets crazy because the stuff I took back was the same size of the stuff I ended up with. I would have to say that you got a good workout with just rearranging the furniture. Would love to have a gazelle but really have no where to put one.

Terri~I think family are the worst sometimes. It's like they feel the need to be mean sometimes. It's not the size that matters anyway, it's the person you are, it's what's inside.

Well, I need to run upstairs and get warm, and move the sprinkler. I'll let it go another hour or so to get it good and soaked. Nothing much on the agenda for today. Need to straighten up the house and vacuum. Will probably do some staining but later in the evening when there is some shade in the back. That sun is killing me. Take care ladies and have a wonderful day!
