Monday 10/7

  • Oooops ... I just found out the hard way that today is my Mother's birthday. Good thing I was standing on her porch w/ a pot of mums when she started singing Happy Birthday to herself.

    I blew this weekend points wise. Grrr ...

    Hard weekend @ work ...

    I wanted to get the thread started for today! I'm going to need all the help I can get this week, ladies!

    Good Morning, Morning Glories!
  • Hey y'all

    I spent all of Sunday fixing my cpu.... I actually had to format c: so I was not a happy camper. I spent 2 hours on the phone with Dell Tech support, but I basically lost a lot of information on my computer...grrrrr (all my important stuff had been saved).

    Deb: I didn't have a perfect weekend foodwise either! It happens, it's over and today is a new day

    Take care!

  • I'm baaack!
    Hope you've all been doing well. I had a wonderful time on vacation but naturally am now swamped at the office. Didn't workout on vacation (had a really bad chest cold) and ate like a pig! Am spending this week slowly getting myself back on track food wise - seems to overwhelming to do everything at once. Today I am concentrating on working out and drinking water. I'll try and find time in the next few days to catch-up on the postings. In the meantime, have a great day - I'm sending diet coke vibes to everyone!
  • WOW, where is everyone today??? It is cold here and really looking like Fall. We are trying to find Emma a new winter jacket, but it isn't easy.

    I am still sick, but I think I am getting better. Still all stuffy tho. Hubby was sick all weekend with cold and flu like symptons.

    Oh, got a call that they moved out carpet installation up to tomorrow and Wed. Otherwise we were waiting 2 more weeks. Kind of excited but they are being a little butt headed about it. I have to find someone to let them in on Wednesday because I can only get tomorrow off.
  • I am here! The wedding was beautiful but the eating was not..oh well, another day...I am journalling tho-I am in for the journalling for one month straight challenge, no matter how bad i am! And i am estimating everything that I don't know! Hi to everyone...tomorrow I have to go get my dress hemmed for my best friend;s wedding...I can't believe how close it is!

    Otherwise, today is just a regular day. One of my patients is in labor-I am going to try to pop over and see her...

    BTW, does anyoone know if you can put frozen steak directly on the barbecue????
  • Hi everyone. Well, packed up all my stuff at the ex's this weekend. It went really well and I had help so that was nice - it's all stacked in one corner of the living room waiting for the 15th. I can't wait to get into my new place!!
    Deb - hope work is better for you this week
    Ali - you should be proud you can do that kind of stuff with your computer - I always have to call in a favor.
    Winter - vacations are good - I'm glad you enjoyed yours
    Jen - YAY carpet - it'll be like having a new house.
    Lori - You can put them right on frozen but they will end up quite rare in the centre - I quick thaw mine in hot (not boiling) water as long as they are in a package - right under the water will give you a bad flavor - and then put them on.
    Gotta fly

  • I'm soooo shot from working this weekend. UGH!

    I managed to go for a walk after getting Jeremy on the bus & off to school. So what if I got into work @ 11:30 AM ... I have needs too you know. My boss is cool about it.
    I plan on leaving early too.
    I have a very much "don't know, don't care" attitude here today. Oh well. Good thing it's Monday & quiet.

    KT - I'm glad to hear that you're making moves. Good for you! And that's an interesting tip about the steak (not putting it under running water) I've never heard that before. I normally let frozen foods sit in a warm/room temp bath to help "quick" defrost.

    Lori - Must be exciting to have a patient that's in labor. You're so "cool"/relaxed about it too. I think it's cool that we have a Dr. here on our thread.

    Glad you had a great time @ the wedding & enjoyed yourself.

    Jen - Good to hear that you are feeling better. What great news about your carpet. I've never had any luck with stuff like that. Cool!

    Ali - I have a Dell at home too. Love it! And a Dell @ work. No problems (knock on wood) yet.
    You're right ... it's a new day - time to move on foodwise!

    So everyone, 3 days until the 3Day Walk for Breast Cancer. I am excited, but so so so so much to do! Acccckkkkk!

    Hello & hi to anyone I missed ~
