We also had lunch at Chili's and I had the best salad: Grilled Caribbean. It was so good and only 9pts!:woohoo:

that's my favorite salad at chili's! i worked there on weekends through college and i LIVED off that salad and chips and salsa for 3 years out of my life! :laughing:
 
We technically should have waited too since DH is starting a new job in July but I guess we are banking on the disability he will get from the navy when he's out in June. He also will get a large chunk every month for two years since he is not going to use the GI Bill. I just checked Disney's website and they do have avail. for the DVC resorts for the week we are going. I hope it works out!!! :cloud9:
WOO HOOOO!!!!! June is just around the corner. I wish my loan payoff was that close :mad: so I could be :)

Hi Peeps!:goodvibes I hope everyone had a nice Saturday. It was beautiful here. My mom and I went shopping and I got some hanging baskets and other flowers. We also had lunch at Chili's and I had the best salad: Grilled Caribbean. It was so good and only 9pts!:woohoo: Tomorrow I am going to make Taco Soup. It works out to be one point for one cup of soup! I can post the recipe if anyone is interested.
I sure would be interested in that recipe, Belle. I make the WW white chicken chili recipe and that is only one point also.

I have had a bad food day today - got into the rest of the cherry cordial kisses. Now they're ALL gone, so no more temptation. But my weight will probably be up next week. Grrrrrr . . .

Sandy - Sending prayers for your son also. I would have a hard time not going and bringing him home. Please keep us posted. It's tough being a mom at times like this. :grouphug:
 
Ok..not that it's that interesting to anyone but we decided on SSR thru Disney. I was approved for the preferred financing and we have the option to take 2006 points. The only way we will do that is if there is a DVC resort with vacancy for our honeymoon in June. Since the dues are cheaper then what we will pay at Shades of Green, and we will also save $115 on towncars since we will have ME, it might be the way to go. I just want to make sure there is a resprt avail before we sign the papers for 06 points. I am waiting for guide to call me back. If we can't go DVC in June we will just get 2007 points and use on our xmas trip in Dec of 08!!!

You know...I still have my camera stuff in my old computer...I could take a pic and upload it. Perhaps tomorrow..I'm lazy!!! ;)


Welcome home!! :cheer2:

We bought resale through TSS, and fwiw the financing was better than WDW and the same money down. Credit hit was the same. However, the extra yrs didn't matter and we wanted BWV badly, so it all worked out for us.

I was terrible today and had pizza, wings, beer again. Did work 4 hrs in the yard (bushes and plants today) and will be planting trees all day tomorrow, so hopefully it will be offset.

Kittens are SUPER cute... I want that white-ish one, but NC is a bit far!

Sorry to hear about your DS eeyore, hope he is better soon.

I will check back in tomorrow night after planting 16 trees, sigh. Wish me luck!
 

Danielle, you're going to LOVE it!!!

We are loving it. We went in last night and twice today. Even ate dinner in our bathing suits so we could get back out there.

Winkers- Love the kitties. I didn't used to be a cat fan, but DD went through some terrible times and we got her a kitten as therapy. It's worked out great, and she is a super sweet kitty. One is plenty, though, thank you.

So the 10 inches of hair is cut!! It looked like a dead animal laying on the table. I have to mail it to Locks of Love Monday. DH is not home yet so he hasn't seen the hair yet. The highlights didn't come out exactly like I wanted but since my hair is so short it won't take long to get them re-done!!

Oooh, you brought back memories. My cut hair sitting in a ziploc bag, looking like a dismembered squirrel's tail. Good for you for doing Locks of Love. Can't wait to see the new 'do!

Here's the haircut.

You look mahvelous, darling. Thanks for sharing the pic.

Prayers please...

Prayers for ds 21.. Nathan... he is in a lot of pain ONE WEEK BEFORE FINALS..

You see 2 years ago we went thru 3 or 4 hospitals, to get rid of a HUGE kidney stone... and he believes its his kidneys...AGAIN!!
yes, dh and I are a bit distraught! Should we drive down there and bring him home? I have no idea what to do!

How are the student health services there? Is there any chance one of you could stay there or close by, so he could finish his classes? Can you talk to the school (or can he) and find out about making up exams later? I feel for him and you.:hug: Lots of prayers headed your way.

Tomorrow I am going to make Taco Soup. It works out to be one point for one cup of soup! I can post the recipe if anyone is interested.

::yes:: ::yes:: ::yes:: Please post it!

Well, I worked it on the elliptical at the gym today while I finished reading Metro Girl by Janet Evanovich. It was no Stephanie Plum, but I still enjoyed it. I had some of the GS sugar-free little brownie cookies today. I don't think they are worth the calories. A serving of 4 cookies is 140, and a serving of 4 thin mints is 150. I'll stick with the thin mints next time.

We have had ours for 2 years and it hasn't gotten old. We :love: it still. Enjoy!! It is especially good after a hard workout!
 
Thanks! DSIL invited her to go and is paying for the trip! It is a tour with a high school group although not DD's high school. DSIL is a teacher but 2 other DSIL's are going on the trip also so lots of chaperones.

DD is a very good photographer and has a DSLR. Her greatest fear is having her camera stolen on the trip. :scared: She is also a journaler since the 4th or 5th grade so I'll make sure she has a new journal just for the trip.

Nancy....your pictures are awesome! I think DD is going to all those places except maybe Monaco. I know they are going to the Riviera and I heard Caanes mentioned but haven't looked at the itinerary recently.

Can you recommend any good guide books? It's so much more meaningful if you actually know something about the places/churches/monuments before yuo see them. Don't you agree??? Thanks! (Probably should've pm'd all that!)
Thanks, everyone, for the nice comments about my pictures, but I couldn't mess them up too badly - everything is just so beautiful! Melinda, your daughter's trip sounds a lot like the one I went on. We had only a few students - way more grownups. They take care of everything and it is a wonderful way to travel. I'm terrible about not reading and planning ahead so I really don't know what book to recommend. I've found it interesting since I've been home to look up the places we went on Wikipedia. (one reason I've been glad I was more careful this time in listing the names of the places we went, churches and monuments we saw, etc.) It's not quite the same as knowing the info while you're seeing it but they tell you so much I can't take it all in at once and this way I can take it in and appreciate it as I put it together at a slower pace - plus enjoy the trip longer!

Winkers-Those kitten pictures are so cute!! I found one of my cats when she was 3 weeks old in a woodpile. It was a "friend" of mine's house and they didn't take great care of their animals. So I took her, even though the mother was around. She was thin and I don't think she would have survived. Now she is 6 and pretty darn cute. A runt though so only about 5 pds. I hope you find great homes....I'm glad you are keeping two!!! :flower3:

So the 10 inches of hair is cut!! It looked like a dead animal laying on the table. I have to mail it to Locks of Love Monday. DH is not home yet so he hasn't seen the hair yet.

What a great thing to do! I love to hear of people doing things like that. My niece did it a couple of years ago and I thought it was precious!
Winkers, cute kittens - and kids!!!
And Sophie - what a cutie!!

Here's the haircut. It's not great, but DH isn't home, so I had to take it myself. ..
147667427-M.jpg

sorry about your scale issues, but you and your new haircut look fabulous!

Spent today with a lot of extended family celebrating my grandmother's 90th birthday - casual but turned out really nice. Fun to see family we don't see often.

Left there and drove eight hours to my brother's in Texas to see the kids' choir musical and will drive home Monday. Quick trip but looking forward to seeing my sweeties in the morning. (They were asleep when we got in at 2 am) I'm up way too late but couldn't resist checking in.

Have a good Sunday!

ps Sandy - sorry about DS - hope he will feel better quickly!

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SUNDAY!!! :sunny:

Hope it's gorgeous where you are too!


S: light Activia yogurt (70)

I noticed you are dropping the Activia/Fiber One bomb. I hope it works/worked! :thumbsup2
Lunch-Lean Cuisine Butternut Squash Ravioli w/salad 8 points
How is the ravioli??? I don't think I've seen that one before. Sounds good!
Me too!
Well, according to the re-weigh, my scale is accurate...today. Of course, I have no idea if it was accurate when it said I was 12 lbs. lighter a week ago!
147667427-M.jpg
Scalesrputz, too! Love the haircut! It does look like she thinned it out a bit at the bottom....very cool! Doesn't it feel weird smiling for the camera when there's no one else in the room? :laughing:
Should we drive down there and bring him home? I have no idea what to do!
Prayers for Nathan! Where is his doctor? Looks like they'd have better/more facilities to manage the situation if there's a med. center at the university. Can they get him in one of those stone-buster things on an emergency basis???? I think I'd go down there and then decide wether or not to bring him back. Praying that it's small and he passes it.
got into the rest of the cherry cordial kisses.
:eek: Oh, no! They are SSOOOOO good. I can see how that could get outta control. A few kisses won't hurt the weight. :hug:

HAVE A WONDERFUL, BLESSED SUNDAY!
 
Prayers please...

Prayers for ds 21.. Nathan... he is in a lot of pain ONE WEEK BEFORE FINALS..

You see 2 years ago we went thru 3 or 4 hospitals, to get rid of a HUGE kidney stone... and he believes its his kidneys...AGAIN!! ugggg. I was in his room, he doenst drink pop anymore... water, lemonade, or tea... and he's 21... (oh yes, he drinks beer, but not to excess, he cant afford it, he may dring Guiness a few times a week!)

I have no idea, but why sUNday, ONE week before finals...

yes, dh and I are a bit distraught! Should we drive down there and bring him home? I have no idea what to do!
Prayers coming his way! I hope he gets to feeling like himself in no time. Poor guy...just what he needs right before finals!

We are loving it. We went in last night and twice today. Even ate dinner in our bathing suits so we could get back out there.
:laughing: I can just see you guys eating really fast so as not to waste precious hot tub time! That is so cool...I really want one, and with my back pain it would be very handy, but DH is not as interested in it. Oh well...maybe when his aches and pains start!

I love the hair! It looks fantastic. You all have inspired me to call my hair lady today. I am going to try to get in today, yeah right, but I can try! I am a hairstylists worst nightmare. When I make up my mind to go I want to go NOW. :rotfl:
 
OH, newsflash for all you girl moms or young girls at heart!

They are opening a new BBB IN the castle on 9/10. (where the gift shop was, they moved that somewhere else)They started taking reservations today, so I called and made one for DD (and me too) for Sat the 22nd. We did just her last time but she wanted me to do it with her, this time I think I will...just for her enjoyment only ;) Anyways, they said there will be a place for pictures like DTD has, but theirs will be either IN the castle somewhere or on main street! How cool! I made mine for 8am, so we can be first ones in and out, and done before park opening to get our pics without lots of other people in the way. Dont worry though, no scary grown up princess costume for me. I just think it will be fun to have some pics of us together all done up.

Your hair looks lovely Lynda :thumbsup2

Hope he's feeling better soon, could exam stress make it worse?

I will check back in tomorrow night after planting 16 trees, sigh. Wish me luck!
4 hours plus more work today will really burn the calories :thumbsup2

Winkers love your kitties, have a great trip only 2 more days now isn't it? :cool1:

Did you all hear we had an earthquake?:scared1: It was about 30/40 miles from me, we felt nothing! Luckily only 1 person was hurt but it caused loads of damage. It was about a 4.7 whatever that means not sure what's a big quake? We never ever have quakes so it's all a bit of a panic overhere at one point it was thought it was an explosion!

That sounds lovely, I've booked my DD's at BBB in DTD in August as a surprise, hope they will love it.

Oh Sandy! Prayers heading Nathan's way! I don't know what his insurance coverage is, but could he go to the Carle ER if that's covered? :confused3 It is a really good facility, and I should know! ;)

I noticed you are dropping the Activia/Fiber One bomb. I hope it works/worked! :thumbsup2

Scalesrputz, too! Love the haircut! It does look like she thinned it out a bit at the bottom....very cool! Doesn't it feel weird smiling for the camera when there's no one else in the room? :laughing:

I am dropping that bomb! :rotfl: Nice wording, by the way! :lmao: It is helping, but it seems to be gradual. Today is cheat day, which usually helps too. Must be that eating something I normally wouldn't shocks my body or something. :confused3 I am going to be careful today though.

Thanks! :) When I went to take the picture, it was starting to curl up a bit, so I had to go straighten it before I took it. Today, I get to play with it myself. :) And we are going to church, so I am going to go do that very shortly! :thumbsup2 And yes, it did feel weird smiling! I almost made a face or did something non-smiling, like in Mimi's self-portraits, but I often look mad when I don't smile, so I didn't. I DID strategically pose so that the chins didn't show! :lmao:
 
Lynda ~ WOW! I love that haircut! You look wonderful. Between the weight loss and the beautiful haircut you look much younger! WOOO HOOTY!

Sandy ~ Prayers for NAthan. :hug:

Danielle ~ I love your hot tub smiley. It really made me laugh!

Jo~ I always smile when you use the word "lovely"! It's a word that I don't hear alot. Only from the British and my Mom. I use it sometimes, but it sounds funny when I say it....maybe I'll use an English accent next time.

Dance and Jo~ your girls will love BBB. DD(11) and DD (13) went in April and it was wonderful. They loved it. BBB in the castle would be amazing!

For all of you who are talking about DVC.....I'm so jealous!
 
Double post ...sorry. Boards went down and then posted my post twice!

you're the same way as me!! When I made up my mind for sure to cut it last week I wanted in ASAP. Had to wait a week!! :laughing:

Amanda is going to love it!!! What a great thing to do together!! :cloud9:
 
Just got this e-mail and had to share with you. I've replaced some naughty words with smilies.


Most of you have read the scare-mail about the person whose kidneys were stolen while he was passed out. Well, read on. While the kidney story was an urban legend, this one is not. It's happening to women every day.

My thighs were stolen from me during the night a few years ago. It was just that quick. I went to sleep in my body and woke up with someone else's thighs. The new ones had the texture of cooked oatmeal. Who would have done such a cruel thing to legs that had been mine for years? Whose thighs were these and what happened to mine? Hurt and angry, I resigned myself to living out my life in jeans and Sheer Energy Control Top Panty Hose.

Then, just when my guard was down, the thieves struck again.

My :eeyore: was next. I knew it was the same gang because they took pains to match my new rear- end to the very thighs they stuck me with earlier. I couldn't believe that my new :eeyore: was attached at least three inches lower than my original. Now my rear complemented my legs, lump for lump. Frantic, I prayed that long skirts would stay in fashion.

It was two years ago when I realized my arms had been switched! One morning I was fixing my hair and I watched horrified but fascinated as the flesh of my upper arms swung to and fro with the motion of the hairbrush. This was really getting scary. My body was being replaced one section at a time. How clever and fiendish!

Age? Age has nothing to do with it. Age is supposed to creep up
unnoticed, something like maturity. NO, I was being attacked repeatedly and without warning. In despair, I gave up my T-shirts. What could they do to me next?

Then my poor neck suddenly disappeared faster than the Thanksgiving turkey it now resembled. That's why I decided to tell my story. I can't take on the medical profession all by myself.

This is not a hoax. This is happening to women in every town every
night. WARN YOUR FRIENDS!

P.S. I must say that last year I thought someone had stolen my :Pinkbounc :Pinkbounc . I was lying in bed and they were gone! As I jumped out of bed, I was relieved to see that they had just been hiding in my armpits as I slept.
Now I keep them hidden in my waistband.
 
:goodvibes thanks Peeps :goodvibes

My heart is in my throat! Its sunday, I'm hoping if he waited this long he can wait another 24 hours - Lynda that's where he went 2 years ago for his first stone (he had blood in his urine, and hs gf/df made him go to that eR - it was the beginning of a long series of hospitals - he got the shunt, he got the shockwave...) Right now he doesnt have his cell phone charged, so who knows... :confused3 dratted kids when they are far from home and need mom!

cranberry juice, its going to become a staple - Food lists - the doc last time felt it was an anomoly and told us not to worry, but to cut down on soft drinks/sodas/coke...

DANCE!! thank you so much for posting that!! I just called and we're all booked too! I wouldnt have thought to book me - but I'll probably get a bigger kick out of it than dd!

Pixie do you have a hidden camera in my house??? roflol - that sadly is too true a picture!
