What is an elephant ear? Not really an ear right??

An elephant ear is about 20 points That's all you need to know

Hi Beth,
Sorry to hear you caught a cold. I swear I start to get paranoid about going to public places by this time of year. Just too many germs, too many colds. I hope you are feeling better.

Ugh, today did not go as planned.
I accomplished everything on my list, but one. no exercise. That means that i have gone 4 days without exercise. Ugh.

I had 2 bags of groceries that needed to be put in the fridge. Thise were in the fron seat with me. the rest were in the back of the Blazer. I opened katie's door, and I grabbed the groceries and went inside. I came back out for the other 4 bags and closed the hatch. Katie wasn't in the back seat, so I closed the back door and my door too. I should have remembered that I had already closed the drivers door. Katie decided to climb out the front seat. In the process of climbing out, she hit the door lock. Yep, you guessed it. The keys were in my purse on the front seat. No Y today, and Katie wasn't about to go outside. She has been stubborn today. I have no idea where she gets that from.

Lunch was fabulous. I did have the soup, but I also had whole wheat fettucine alredo. Yummy I am terrified of the scale Friday.

Tomorrow Won is taking Katie to school, so I can get a haircut. I am then going to kindergarten registration and Costco. After I pick Katie up from school, we are going to the Y for weights and cardio. Then taco salad for dinner.

I'm off to make some tea.
Take care,
Beth

Hello Beth! Remember you were sick earlier this week so there has been a reason for you not to exercise the last 4 days. Plus it sounds as though Katie is giving your patience a workout You'll get back into the exercise swing of things tomorrow and it will all work out. Don't be afraid of the scale - we can take care of it

Hi Beth,

I hope the scale works out ok. You have been ill so you shouldn't have exercised. Sounds like Katie is giving you a run for your money. I always think that when they give me no trouble or my house is and stays totally clean, I will be lonely! Have a good week and holiday.

 

[sarahsmom73]

Beth! Ahhhhhhhhhh! What would our lives be like without our little dears! (Yup! BORING!!!)

Have a great day!

 

[DoeWDW]

Oh, Beth, with you being sick and Katie testing the limits of your sanity, I think you've done just fine! Besides, extra carbs (on occasion) will help boost your metabolism and keep it guessing.

I agree with Amanda - we can take care of any scale problems!!

Today sounds like another busy one for you. Take time to take good care of you and rest when you can, so your body can heal itself fully.

Have a great day, WISH Beth!

Hang in there Beth! When my kids give me a run for my money, I always think "this too shall pass......." I know it doesn't help too much, but it does help put it in perspective!

Don't worry about the lack of exercise. Sometimes life happens and we are just along for the ride. I know you'll get the exercise in today and get back into your routine, so don't sweat it.

Have a wonderful Easter. Are you working this weekend? I hope you have a chance to spend quality time with Katie and Won.

Hi All,

Well Kate is just too ill to go to school. Her cold has gone to her chest. I have restarted her asthma meds. Mer mucus is still clear, so I don't think she needs antibiotics. Won is staying home to work, so I can make my haircut. He does have to go in this afternoon, so no YMCA today. Kate will take a nap, even if I have to drug her. I will do the 3 mile WATP and some yoga ball exercise. It is better than nothing. I am feeling much better, about 80%.

Ok, I'm off into my busy day again.
take care,
Beth

Sorry to hear about your DD. Just keep your fingers crossed you don't get it. Are you getting a radical haircut or keeping it trimmed? I am thinking of going and saying do whatever you want to my hair. Have a great day. Oh do you like those big excersise balls?

Kristin

 

[pearlieq]

Glad to hear you're feeling better, but I'm so sorry about your poor DD!

Have fun with your haircut!

Won bought me a new laptop, since the one that I hve been using is from Delphi. He leaves Delphi on April1st. He got a great del, but the keyboard is much different. I will probably be having a ton of typos for the next few days. Please bear with me.
I'll gt to journals this afternoon and evening.
Take care,
Beth

 

[kris1973]

Ok, I got ton accomplished today. The house is clean and Katie is packed for a visit to Mimi's. I did make it to the Y, but was only able to do 20 minutes on the glider. It jus kills me. I was up to 90 minutes on the blasted thing, and now that I am sick, I am back at the beginning.

I stuck to the plan. I am going to weigh in tomorrow, and give myself 1 week to get back to 195 before I give up my clippie.

I didn't make it to all the journals. I am sorry. I am wiped out and heading to bed. This keyboard is driving me crazy. The a needs to be pushed a bit hader, so I keep dropping my a's. Sorry if it annoys anyone.
Have a good one.

 

[pearlieq]
