Hi,
Just got back from the gym. I'm actually having fun working out.
Dee, I agree with Tina, hubbie doesn't sound really serious about being OP.
Tina, I love te cooler weather too. We actually got some rain too! YEA!! It is great having a personal trainer, I think it will reallly help me get on the right track.
Tammy, how are you feeling? How is school?
Friday is our conference day. So far..... no one wants one. Yea for me, but I still have to go to school.
Dee!!!!!!!!!! I live very close to Wright Patt! It's less than an hour from me. Is there any way that we could meet while you are there? I am cracking up about your hubby. I think he and I are related. lol
Susan, tell that trainer to come and tell me to up my calorie intake! No one has ever told me that. Wahhh!!! Getting kicked is not a good thing.
School was pretty good. Had a meeting before school about one of the 5th grade girls. I had her in 2nd grade for math, science, and social studies and she had a tough time even then. She is really struggling with reading. Her mom pulled her out of school last year and home-schooled her. Mistake. The poor kid is just that much further behind now. I'm going to start working with her one-on-one the 3 days that I'm there every week. We're going way back for the reading and spelling and try to build some confidence and go from there. She knows me, is comfortable with me, and I think it will be a good thing for her. I also want to work with her on some math skills too because I'm sure she's behind there too. Home schooling can be a good thing in the right circumstances, and this definitely wasn't the right thing for her.
We have an offer on the house! They have to sell their house first though. another couple is looking at it tomorrow. We told the first people that if someone else comes up with the $$ first, we will sell to the people with the $$. They agreed to that. Keep your fingers crossed!!
Susan, ask the trainer about brownies and ice cream. I'm sure those would be ok. lol I will probably only have to have a conference with the parents of the girl I started working with yesterday. Our conferences aren't until beginning of November though.
I did "plant" St. Joseph in the front of the house sometime in August. Another friend did it at the same time. We're both still hoping he works for us. At least we've had a legitimate offer. They had an offer that was a slap in the face kind almost. Their house is beautiful! They are asking a little over $300,000. It is worth it. They received an offer for $199,000. I couldn't believe the people would even have the nerve to offer that. The real estate agent didn't even want to tell the owners because she knew it would upset them. They didn't accept the offer. I haven't talked to them recently, so I'm not sure what's happening.
Wouldn't it be great if the couple today brought cold, hard cash with them?? I would like that!!!
News about today's couple. They had been through the house this summer, and they came back to see if it was as nice as they remembered! The husband called and talked to Bob tonight about utilities, etc. They are meeting Bob at the house tomorrow afternoon when he goes to mow the yard. They are very interested!! I can't believe it! We have no one for ages, and now there are 2 couples interested at the same time. Oh my!!
Good luck on weigh in tomorrow everyone!!! Would you believe I forgot to go to the Y for aerobics tonight? I remembered at 7, and the class starts at 6:30. duh.
I am going to Wright Patt in January for three weeks. I would love to hook up with you. We'll talk more as the time gets closer. That would be super cool!
Happy Thursday to all the group,
Hope everyone is doing good OP today.
Ya know, maybe we should have a "Complaint Day" once in awhile.
I'm having trouble with my left knee. I've gone down hard on it several times recently. It's giving me fits right now. It feels swollen and doesn't move very well. Yesterday, my leg hurt up where it joins the body--I'm sure I've been favoring the knee and that did it. I've started taking Advil and that's helping today.
Now today, I have a crick in my neck. Calgon, take me away......
Anyone else want to complain today?????
Hi peoples
I weighed in this morning lost 2lbs this week . Drinking water only all day long. Except for my ocasional Starbucks 3pt Caffe Americano Frap.
Dee, if you're here for 3 weeks, I'm sure we'll have time to meet!!
Tina, the hubby of couple #2 and his FIL met with Bob at the house this afternoon. They were measuring and talking about things they wanted to do (put in another bath, move the laundry to the main floor instead of the basement, insulate the garage and put in a drop ceiling, and other things). Bob said you could tell that they had been doing lots of talking. They haven't made an offer yet, so we'll have to wait and see. If they do make an offer, couple #1 has 3 (?) days to come up with the $ if they still want it. #1 has to sell a house, and #2 doesn't have to sell. Tomorrow is Bob's b-day, so getting another offer would be a nice present for him. Getting a check would be an even better present, but that will be later.
And about complaint day, I can do that! I didn't go to school today. I'm awful. I'm only supposed to go 3 days, and I only made it 2 this week. I hurt so bad I couldn't even raise my arms to wash my hair. Took medicine and spent lots of time in the recliner or in bed.
USAlady, I know how to do the slider thing when I'm doing it, but you'll have to get someone else to explain how to do it. I have asked for help many many times!! Good for you on getting it moving!!!
Where are you in Indiana? I live in southwestern Ohio.
Tammy, what are you hurting from?
I hope they give you and offer today, Happy Bday to Bob!
USA LADY,
go into usercontrols to edit your signature. Scroll down to where your ticker is and type in the new weight where the old weight is and it will change. This must be done manually everytime you want to change it. Is that clear as mud?
Complaint day......I got diagnosed with sebhorreic dermatitis and I am to put special shampoo on my scalp, and cream on my face and ears.....I have so much thick long hair that I am going to cut alot of it off today, so I can better care for the condition.....I love my long hair.
Tammy, tell Bob we are all singing Happy Birthday to him today.
Sorry you had a rough day. Did you overdo or was it just the weather?
Dee, I'm sorry about you cutting your hair. I hope the condition gets better fast!
Susan, how is exercise? I wish you'd send that trainer down here.
Amy, where are you?????
Maureen, are you out roller blading?
Where is everyone???????????????????????????????????????
Well, I hacked off my hair. It is kind of in a bob, not touching my shoulders. Boy, it curled up so much when she cut all that hair off and put layers in.
DH bought another computer, we now have three. So I think it's time I bought a treadmill or eliptical. What do you think?
OF course I love the personal trainer idea, that must be wonderfil.
