Are you taking Cosmo? He loves Vegas.

Wow that is a great price. I think my air was a little over $200 and my room is about the same price. I could not get a package for the Nugget where we are staying with the group we are going with.

Sandy I bet it was great to go to the doctor with Stacey and see what he had to say about your babies.

Well today I am bored. lol I knew it would happen but I did not think it would happen this quickly. Don't get me wrong I am still gald not to be working but .... lol

I did do more laundry, walked a mile this morning, cooked breakfast, cleaned the mess and washed my car all before 10am. Then Erik and rented a movie and went to the grocery store. I had planned on cooking for dinner but I was just not hungry. I made a nice salad with mesquite chicken for dinner.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Well if you are bored think about me. I am soon to be unemployed. My last daycare family is leaving. I am not going to replace them. I am officially RETIRED. It is so hard on me. I will miss that family immensely. It was only two days a week but you fall in love with the family!

Today I got to go with Stacey to take the babies for their two year pictures. We went to kiddie kandids. Tyler did so good but Joey just kept saying "Tyler's turn" just like she did at the doctors office. The pictures turned out pretty good for as uncooperative as Joey was.

Heid, just wanted to thank you again for your help. Dad is definitely feeling better. His attitude has changed already! BIG HUGS!

Selena, how do you cook your mesquite chicken? I am bored with all my dishes.

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Mom - glad I could help dad. I didn't do much, just typed and corrected the spelling mistakes!!!

I am excited to plan Vegas....too bad I missed you by a few weeks Selena!!!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Good morning everyone.

This thread is so slow. Everyone must be enjoying summer and the kids out of school.

Hey Selena, glad to see you post again.

My divorce papers were filed today. Now I go to court anytime after 60 days, which is August 20th and guess what...That means I will most probably be divorced by my Disney trip, which was my goal. I don't really miss him anymore and for the most part I've been pretty happy, but today I'm just kinda sad. Aerial's been at her Dad's so my house has been quiet. But, I've been keeping busy, went shopping Monday night with my friend and we might go again tonight. I got some shorts for Disney. I've lost weight and I've been working out so now I'm a size smaller. I've also been decorating my house. I've gone out a few more times and I do have a couple of guys calling me, but I'm not ready for more then friends right now. It's fun to flirt though after being married so long.

Hope everyone is good today. I still haven't gotten our airline tickets, but I plan to do that before the month is over. Oh, and I ordered a flat screen tv for my living room. It's not in yet, but I'm excited.

Thank you Sandy, that was really nice to hear. I gotta see what's out there because I guess I didn't think I was worth much to stay with a cheater for so long. My shorts are size 6 and I really think I could have gone to a 4 but they didn't have that size. I don't want to lose any more weight, but I'm trying to really tone up. I've been doing 30 minutes on the treadmill and crunches, side exercises & pushups.

 

[Pooh_Friend#1]

Marcie - I am sorry you are a little down...I hope Aerial gets back soon to cheer you up. Yay, officially single by Disney...what a great way to celebrate!! I took my best friend to Vegas to celebrate!! You have to tell me about your routine....how many reps for crunches and what are side exercises? I can't believe you lost weight....you don't need to, I couldn't even imagine fitting into a 4 or a 6....congrats but like you said no more losing weight!!!!! Getting tone is good though!!!

I'd be happy to hold your purse while you are trying on clothes. Let me know when you will be looking at swimsuits or visiting VS.

And I've got my HS buddy coming out here "to get his mind off of things." Yeah, we'll be trying to kill of the brain cells that are responsible for the memory of his marriage.

Well I weigh 110 now, that's where I want to be. But, I am loving how I'm toning up. I'm not as young as I used to be. So, gotta work at it. My treadmill is a Nordic Track and you can put these little memory chips in it with a workout plan. I have the 8 week beginner right now and I'm about half way through with it. Every minute the incline goes up or down and/or the speed changes. It's pretty cool. Once I finish the whole thing I'm going to buy the body toning intermediate, it does 30 to 45 minute workouts. So, I've been doing the treadmill every other day. I searched some crunches out and there is this lady who is about to release a video...I will look up her name. She says do reps of 20 to 25 a few sets everyday. So, I've been doing 3 sets of 20 of the basic beginner crunches and then 2 sets of 20 of the bicycle crunch where you bring one bent leg up and the opposite arm down...know what i mean? Those are tougher, my plan is to do more sets of those and less of the beginner and then once I do all intermediate try the harder ones. I'm doing 100 total a day. The area that pushups affect, under your arm and chest are the hardest area for me to do and not be sore. I used to have to watch it at the gym, one time I was so sore I could cry. So, I'm only doing 5 push ups right now every other day, I'm going to increase in a week or so. The side exercises I'm doing is putting your hand over your head and leaning in the opposite way with my other hand down by my knee. I do 20 reps on each side about 3 sets everyday. It's helping my hips. I've noticed my back is toning up too. Then also on the days I do the treadmill I've been sitting down in a wide v and stretching out my legs. I also looked at that ladies arm exercises. I might just go buy me some light weight dumbells. I feel so much better when I work out and it's a good time to think. Not to mention I am loving the results.

I found the site where I saw the workouts... http://body.aol.com/diet/americatakesitoff/weight-loss-workout

Friends are the best. They been getting me drunk and killing those brain cells too.
