How are you feeling today, Kristin???

Today I went to the gym for the first time in 2008 which was good but my gymwear seemed tighter than my last visit which was bad! Ah well, at least I was in the right place to do something about it sooo I worked hard and thoroughly enjoyed the session! I'm seeing my personal trainer again on Monday so I'm hoping to get back into shape asap...

Spent the afternoon dismantling the real tree in the conservatory and collecting together all the Christmas decorations displayed around the house. Will box those up tomorrow and concentrate on dismantling the faux tree and all my Disney baubles in the hall at the weekend...

Have discovered that there'll be a Pirates & Princesses Party at MK when DD and I visit in May so we're booking tickets for that!

Feeling ok today. Each day is a bit better. Thanks for asking.......
Just laying in bed today.

Congrats, on going back to the gym.. That is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I noticed that the Pirate and Princess Party is going to be there while we are there in April too. I am waiting to see the if DVC has a discount for the dates while we are there.......Have you been to the party before???????

Evening all- just checking in, sorry been busy on other things.

I thought I'd let it go for New Year's Day, Andrew! TOO many leftovers in the fridge... Started properly today - drank a bottle of water first thing, switched to decaff coffee and later I'm off to the gym for a personal training session!!!



WOW!!!

I really want to scrapbook my 25th Anniversary/Vow Renewal cruise but just haven't got around to it yet... Actually I've got piles of stuff from various trips that should be scrapbooked - it's a little daunting... Ah well, someday, someday!

I am trying to be good

Snow on Thursday in London 9.00am, main bit 11am goes 4pm!

The word DIET is an evil 4-letter word! Good luck with it! I never use that word but my intentions are the same as it.........lose weight, get in better shape. Oh the horror!!!!

I am going to try

That's good to hear! You don't need me to tell you to take it easy, but ...er take it easy!

Yeah, I'm pleased I went today. TBH I have a love/hate relationship with the gym - hate to go but love it when I'm there...

That's a great idea about the DVC discount for the PPP - will tell my DD to hold off until we know more!

Yes! Sophie (DD aged 25) and I will be staying at VWL from May 3rd to 11th when we head off to Port Canaveral and a 4 night Double Dip on the Wonder!!! So we're planning on attending the P&PP on May 9th - already have an early dinner at Chef Mickey's booked. We're not concentrating on parks so much this trip but looking forward to the cruise, some shopping and a fantastic dinner at Victoria & Albert's...

You can do it, Andrew!!!

It's very cold here right now - just been putting out the recycling... I love the snow but worry about DH who drives into Canary Wharf everyday at around 5.50am...

Anyone got TLC channel??Check out the show that is on right now. The man on is eating 33,000 calories a day...............

I'm watching a program about a 29 year old woman who weighs almost 900lbs!!! Seems she was the world's heaviest woman, Renee Williams from Austin, Texas and she died after having gastric surgery - it's very sad...

Well done going to the gym!!! I have not been in a few months. Need to get back in the habit. We go through spells where we'll go for a few months then slack, then start back up. Right now though, I'm taking a break from shoveling. Does that qualify as a workout?! It is so cold, so I had to come in and warm up. Trying to get it done before DH and kids get home.

Shoveling definitely counts!!! Good luck with that...

Out of interest, what do you ladies like about the CM products?

I started out non-CM and was sort of anti-CM. Then about 1 1/2 years into scrapbooking I decided to try it. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the pages. It is nice to not HAVE to find mounting paper. I also really like how the albums hold together. As I mentioned earlier, I started my cruise album using the DCL cruise album and kit and I hate it, mainly because I spent so much time looking for papers to mount everything on. I still use alot of non-CM stuff but I will stick with the albums. Other things I love are the tape runners, punches and cutting templates. I have just about every CM tool you can think of. I honestly prefer non-CM stickers and embellishments.

Hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kristin

Back to work! Had that sluggish feeling, too. Not rested, refreshed, and ready for sure!

I also love the tools, their circle and oval cutters are the greatest. I have tried other brands and not happy with them. Also I have had the small paper trimmer for about 5 years, and the blade that came with it is still nice and sharp!!

You can say that again! We are SO busy right now, trying to wrap up the end of the year. It is so difficult to have to be so focused and pumping out the work when you aren't in the mood!

Hope everyone had a GREAT evening!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How true, I had to generate some report for month end and year end closing. At 5pm another requests for data came in, luckly I had already been gathering that data just in case someone needed it.

Had the report out faster than they knew what hit them
