Talking Yay! It's Saturday~

Hey gang...

So...a porn bot, eh? What will the wierdos think of next? Imagine being such a loser that you have nothing to do but sit at your computer all day and think of ways to spread crap like that around. Sad.

How is everyone's day going? I just got back from a brief trip to the mall. I've had a bunch of frames that I've been wanting to return to macy's since Christmas...finally got down there. I exchanged them for two new ones, then got to looking at the down comforters that were on sale. Ours seems to be on it's last legs, (or feathers!) I found a nice one with 4 down pillows to go with it for us, then saw different ones for the kids...ON SALE AND CHEAP! My huge bundles prohibited me from any further shopping, so I came home. I'm not much of a mall shopper anyway...and dear Lord, THE CROWDS! ugh...I hate crowds.

I still have to get my butt out to the grocery store...to find something fabulous for dinner. I am trying to really limit my carbs. I find that I do much better and I'm much less hungry between meals when I cut way back on them. Any suggestions? I'm thinking seafood...shrimp or salmon or something like that with lots of veggies. We'll see.

My darling husband bought my birthday present today. (It's in JULY.) Tickets for Bruce Springsteen at the Meadowlands (NJ stadium) went on sale today. Somehow he managed to get, not 2, not 4, but 8! Why so many, you may ask? (I know I did) Because you could only buy EIGHT at a time...geez. Not to mention the fact that we are going to see him already next weekend in Atlantic City. Men! I know I should be much more appreciative, since I've always been a huge Bruce fan...I think I'm too old to want to be a part of a screaming throng again. I did mention I hate crowds, didn't I? I know...I'm an ingrate. Don't tell him I was *****ing, OK?

Well, I'd better get moving...the grocery store awaits...

Have a great weekend, all!

Hi everyone! Happy Saturday to you all. I'm only here for a minute.

Honey and I have a Hot Date!!! He asked me yesterday if I wanted to go to dinner and a show and then play. How could I refuse???? I've told him about our banter on the subject of the Big and Tasties and he doesn't want to miss out on his share!
Maybe I should get out the chocolate body paints and hunker down for a fun night. What do ya think????

I don't think I told you guys, we made reservations for a Murder Mystery weekend at a resort up north. That's coming up in a couple of weekends. I can't wait to get away. We're going with another couple and sharing a chalet. We'll have separate bedrooms and separate baths with a shared kitchen/living room so it should be fine. We've been away with them before. There's supposed to be a hay/sleigh ride to view Elk and then a gourmet dinner and the murder mystery takes place over the entire weekend, culmanating on Sunday at brunch. Should be fun.

But enough of my daydreaming, that's not for a couple of weeks yet. I'll have to wait to get away, but in the meantime, there's always tonight!!!

Guess I should get going. It's 5:15 and DH said how bout dinner at 6, so I must go get gussied up. See you all later. Love ya.

I just had the best day.!!!

My 2 year old granddaughter came over about 9am and spent the day with me. She is such a joy and smart and sweet and.... well, you get the idea. LOL

Last night her whole family went out to dinner with us and then came over and we played board games so I got to spend time with the baby (1year old). The baby just wears me out.

So it was really special to spend today with just the older one.
We spent the morning at the house and at noon I took her to see "The Jungle Book". It was a very cute movie and she sat interested throughout the entire movie. I was expecting her to get restless and want to leave half way through it.
Then we went to get lunch and a toy. After that we came home and she let me take a nap with her. I only had 2 hours sleep last night so I was in need of a nap more than her.
Did I mention how how SMART she is ?? Okay... I'll let you guys off the hook and talk about something else. LOL LOL

Well... actually.. hubby just came in and said "Get off of here and cook him some dinner." LOL It is not good to keep a hungry fat man waiting. LOL
I will come back and post later.

Default Not to worry

I am doing fine. I seem to be in a quiet/reflective state of mind.

Although I feel someout short of time lately. I have to get a plan together so I can fit everything in each day.

Glad you are all doing good.

I am getting antsy for Spring. Of course, I have a ton of ideas of things I want to do painting, planting, and, of course, shoving stuff around.

Hi guys !!! Can't stay but a minute.
I just wanted to jump in and tell you that I put on Richards "Dance you pants off" video and MOVED this body for 30 minutes with him.
I did not keep up with all of HIS moves.... but I made a lot of my own. LOL
The bottom line is... I kept myself moving for an entire 30 minutes.
I like how he still shows how much weight the people lost at the end.
One woman lost 282lbs and she still has quite a bit to go... but SHE IS DOING IT ... and so can WE !!!!

Donna... I would let those carpets wait until your back is better.
Thin... I am jealous of your fun you have planned
Lady... glad to see you're okay and don't need us... but we need you
Ravyn.. I would hire you to take care of my 82 and 92 year old parents
Baylee... I was wondering the same thing?
Kat... I am going to tell on you !!
I am guilty of the same thing.
Okay... gotta run. Love you all.

Here I am 2Cute!!

Sorry. I wasn't trying to dissappear. We just got internet after going for 5 months without it, so it's quite a fight to get to the computer around here.

I really don't have a heck of a lot to say as of now anyway. I'm not particularly watching what I eat. As for exercise?? HA!! Walking isn't much fun cuz it's always raining here, and I'm afraid to start back on my beloved TaeBo cuz we are now in a 4th floor aparment instead of having our own house. I just can't imagine what that would sound like downstaris!! I have flashing images of me taking a quick and painful journey through the floors to the basement. YIKES!! You would think all those stairs would count for something, since I go up and down them about ten times a day, but I'm not losing. Still gaining. But I should get some killer buns and thighs eventually, don't you think?

I'm just kind of on edge waiting to see the new doctor this week. I'll definately be back to tell you all about it.

Talk at ya later,
Jen

Hi girlies, where is everyone hiding? I'm getting ready to take of for the Roller Skating Rink, wish me luck. I am gonna put the skates on and try it, what the heck!!!! I used to love it so much.
Food has still been great last few days, today we are going out to lunch (my first time since I started this journey). We are going to Dennys with the kids, so I have been over on Dotties site checking out the pt value for things. Looks like a good old salad for me. Everything is so high, so salad it will be!!!! I have plenty of points and even some banked but oh it's scarey.....Will let you know when I get home what I had for sure.
I did do 1 1/2 miles of the WATP tape this a.m too!! Gotta keep it going. And here we go again, (I stepped on the scale, because on Thursday I was 280 remember and I just could not wait to get into the 70's and Im there!!! Yahoo!!! Wont tell you the real number till WI day...

Love and hugs to all,
Sandy

Default Rain, rain go away...

Good grief, it's POURING out there! I guess that's good because it will help to get rid of the ton on snow that is still piled high...but bad because I had big plans for today, and it's just no fun when you have to be slogging around in the rain. My sister and I were going to take a ride down the shore to look for a beach house for our summer vacation. We decided to stay close to home this year because of our children's obligations...her son has football starting Aug 1, my son has camp the 1st week in July, daughter has two shows this summer, plus getting ready for college...we have a very small window of opportunity...the last two weeks in July, so we decided a nice, relaxing week at the beach would work for us...problem is, it's already a bit late to start looking. Hopefully, tomorrow's weather will be better, we'll head down after the kids go to school.

I'm pleased to say that, although we dined out last night, I stayed almost totallywithin points...Japanese food is very low in points...I had sushi, miso soup, salad, and teriyaki salmon...no rice...I looked it all up today @ WW.com and calculated about 12 points...for food...it was the wine and the after dinner drinks that brought me just slightly over my limit! No changes on the scale this am, so that's a good thing!

Geez, the phone has not not stopped ringing since I got on the computer...this post is taking me forever...I'll be back when things calm down around here!

Have a great day, all!

Hey all.....

I'm here, but in a very melancholy state. I feel really wierd today. Things are really good on the outside, but the inside is a mess and I'm not quite sure why. Food is good. Exercise is great. It's not hormones.....I just finished my TOM. Money situation is good, I get to see Tony this coming Wednesday and will go to my first race this season next Sunday in Atlanta. I'm at work today, but I get off at 3:00 and the race doesn't start till then because it's in Las Vegas, so I will hardly miss any of it. I just don't know.....I can't put my finger on it, but I'm just not happy. I have that feeling in the pit of my stomach that I just want to burst out crying, but I don't know why. It's very confusing.

I'm sorry to come here and bug you guys with this post, but I thought it would make me feel better if I came here and told you guys how I felt, but it didn't. I still feel crappy. I am feeling very unappreciated and unloved today. I hate days like this.

I'll be back later.

Talking I LOVE you, Tina!

Tina, I & appreciate you. I know I can always count on you to lift my spirits. So, could you give Tony a little kiss from me? Ask him if he has any sexy, older friends for this friend of yours that is very cold in Minnesota and could use some heat?

Hi all, I made it back alive and in 1 piece after the rollerskating thing. I loved it still, but oh my poor ankles. No seem splitting happened either. Actaully the ride home was the adventure, as there was about 1" of ice on the darn freeking road. The trip that usually takes about 40 minutes took us 2 hours, talk about treaturous (*spelling). So even though it's not Thankful Thursday I am thankful that me and the kids and my mom made it home just fine!!!

Now, Tina, my dear dear friend Tina, please look around you and see how loved you are. I know we all have those down days and I think it happens more when we get older. Somedays I have no idea why but I wanna just cry like you said. Hopefully tomorrow will be better!!! We are doing so good and should be upbeat so lets stay there!!! Besides, like you said you get to see Tony this coming week and weekend!!!

Oh forgot to tell you all about the going out to eat at Dennys. I went to Dotties site like I said and I found the salad section and well, you would be suprised!!! Anyway I went in didnt need the menu cause I knew I was having a diet coke (treat) and a Garden chicken salad!!! (5pts) and while the others were passing around each others bacon, sausage and hashbrowns to who ever wanted to try what not one person asked me for a taste of my salad(wonder why? ) So I stayed a little happy camper and ate my big ole salad and enjoyed!!! Another fear conquered, I can go out and eat sensibly.

Love you all,
Sandy

I'm not lost .... Honest!

I missed you all!!!

I decided to take a few days away from the keyboard and get stuff done. It was a spur of the moment decision. I cleaned house, bathed dogs, swam at the Y and, since the weather was decent, took a day trip to a Vanity Fair outlet and bought lots of new undies. Of course that meant that today I had to take off the tags and wash them all. Saved BIG BUCKS tho. It was definately worth the trip. Since my bras were falling apart from old age it was necessary!

Can't believe you gals have filled two threads since I logged on last!

TINA: Here's a big hug from me and all of your friends . I hate it when I feel crappy and don't know why. Sometimes I just need a good cry then I'm OK.
GEE do you get to meet Tony again? Lucky girl!

KAT: Good for you eating Japanese. I had Chinese last night but made sure I kept my portions small and stayed away from those crunchies they give you when you first sit down. We've lost about six inches of snow here but there's still about 18" on the ground and the temp.'s dropping fast. High of 10º tomorrow.

SANDY: I haven't caught up yet but you said you went roller skating??? WOW! I hate those icey trips. Not much is scarier. Glad you're home safely.

Just want to say HI to everybody:

Thin, Donna, Jen, Lucky, 2Cute, Baylee, 2cute, Sara, Duckie, Michelle, Ravyn.

Oh Baylee, Baylee, Baylee...

The houses ON the beach run about $11,000 a WEEK for a 4 bedroom...that's a tad out of our price range!! No, we go a little further in than beachfront. Sometimes if you're lucky, you can get one pretty close, like a block away, for a decent price. We're looking at one tomorrow that is waterfront, but it's on a lagoon. Guess I'll have a place to park my dinghy...er...YACHT!

EVERYONE IS INVITED!
