I've been away from you guys for almost over a week. I'm back now but I have a lot to quote on.
Look what I got in the mail yesterday...
Yeah for you
I am in the last 100 pages of Breaking Dawn. When I'm done who can I talk to, so not to ruin it for anyone else?
Peace Out!
Not me, I'm about 3/4 done with the book. I went on vacation right after I got it and I didn't bring the book with me to read at night
Good news! The dr. called while I was in the middle of having a filling replaced, but I made Brian bring in the phone (our dentist is a church friend and very understanding). They said the ultrasound gave them a better picture, and that it's nothing to worry about for now, and come back in 6 months.
I am going to have to swipe some of the kids Clearasil. Between the stress, the heat, and AF, my chin is broken out. I'll have to tell DH it's like he's kissing a teenage girl.
Have a good time with the hens!
Don't drink too much!
Good news Danielle
I still break out right before AF comes. When does it end?
great! remember to do your cardio AFTER any weight training. you'll burn more calories that way because your body will already be in calorie-burning mode after you do weights!
OMG I never knew that. I always used to walk on the treadmill, then do my weights.
Are ya done yet with Breaking Dawn? I am! I'm dying to discuss too!
Not me yet see above post to Monica
By the end of the ride, I had to sqeeeeeeeze my bummocks to get to a bathroom URGENTLY!
Sorry to laugh because I know that feeling too well some days
There were 21 of us altogether, we went out for a meal and drinks and then went to the races
Sounds fun, thanks for the pictures
I hate when parents DRAG kids onto "scary" rides. Or, almost as bad, the bully parents.
I hate this too. I remember when DS9 was 5 the last time we went to Disney and we was afraid to do anything that involved being in the dark, well that's almost every ride. My DH and him stayed outside and wait while me and DS7 (who was almost 3) went on everything, even 3D things. We had fun but I still wish he wasn't afraid because I think he was at the best age for Disney at 5. Oh well at 10 he's going to love it even more right?
When we were at Blizzard Beach, there was a mom dangling her child over one of those huge, straight down slides. The kind that when I go down, as I sit I ask myself why I am going on. The poor kid was flailing and crying. IMO, that was borderline abuse. Thank God the lifeguard finally told the mom she couldn't put the kid on the slide, and they had to walk back down the line.
That's horrible for that mom to do that. Thank goodness the lifeguard said something.
For those of you interested, I have completed my TR, "Disney Chix Do Disney by Land & Sea".
You can get there through the link in my signature.
Thanks to all of you who have been reading and commenting. I hope you have been enjoying reading as much as I enjoyed being there!
I have been enjoying your TR, can't wait to go finish. I have so many threads to catch up on, yours being one of them.
i have a question for you guys. when you have a sore throat/sinus drainage issues, do you just feel like you have to eat more than usual? when i have an irritated throat i just want to stuff my face because food seems to sooth my throat. i've been congested for a few days now but mowing the yard yesterday and breathing all that grass just did me in and now i'm miserable and wanting to eat constantly.
I have the opposite problem. I don't eat while I cannot taste anything but as soon as my taste buds are back to normal, that's when I eat everything in sight.
Then my mom calls to tell me I had a message at the house from Homegoods and I won some contest or something. There was a grand opening and I entered for something. Well I call the woman back, and I won a $1000 giftcard! How awesome is that? Perfect timing because I keep seeing little things here and there that I want for my apartment. And of course I'll treat my mom and DSIL to something.
Then my mom tells me that my cousin in NY had emergency surgery last night. She is doing well now, but I guess it was pretty serious. She had gastric bypass a few years ago and apparently over the weekend her intestines wrapped around her colon! Not good.
Hope everyone is having a good day!
yeah on the prize and
for your cousin
I've got a quick, long overdue chick in. The fair was fun and I walked and walked and walked until every step hurt. The food was ooohhh so yummy and fattening...... I thought I did pretty good but nope; I was
up 2lbs for the week...... arrghhh. To top that off, HD and I were run off the road and sideswiped by an tractor trailer truck Fri morning. Neither of us were injured, just scared. I wasn't a very good peep over the weekend, it was more than I could deal with. The car is already iin the shop, hopefully the other driver's ins co will settle and pay for everything so we don't have to go to court.
In slightly more upbeat news........ I got a promotion on Thurs. I applied for it several mos ago but was passed over for someone with more experience and seniority in the company. When the position came open again, my boss knew I was still interested and I've been working my tail off to show that I'd be a good fit. It payed off; they didn't post the position, just gave me the promotion.
It came with a small bump in pay that will help us reach our goal of being debt-free that much quicker!!
I know I had things to say to everyone but it's getting late and my brain is about fried for the day. I hope I get the chance to check in again before Friday.
so scary about the truck but
on your pormotion.
I went to the gym this am. DH and I did laps in the pool. We walked, swam and used the foam weights. It felt good without being too stressful. I'm trying hard to stay on track with my dining plan.
I think now that my boys are in school all day and DD2 will be going to preschool twice a week. I'm going to check out our community pool for thursday when she's in school. I would love to do some kind of swimming exercise, even aqua aerobics
Ooooohhhhh...... new accronym...... HWDP; health and wellness dining plan....... sounds so much better than diet!
That's sounds great almost like a
Disney dining plan
We have registration night at my son's school tonight!
And my daughters is tomorrow night! I can't wait for school to start!!
Summer is winding down and I can tell they are getting sick of each other!
We start next Thursday August 28th and my house is the same, fighting with each other.
Good Morning Peeps!
I survived the storm...after I originally posted, things began to calm way down. The wind and rain I can handle - it's those darned tornadoes. I'm used to being in the fortress, aka my mom's house. It is built so solidly that even the police joke they will use it as a substation in case of an emergency.
I anticipated schools being open tomorrow and at around 7pm the county said they would indeed be open today. Well I get up at 5:30 this morning, shower and start getting read when I turn on the news and see that the county has now decided to close schools today
Of course now I'm getting no work done because there is only so much I can do at home at the moment. I'm not even sure of all my kids goals to create therapy activities, but I'm sure things are getting pushed back a bit.
So now I can run around and get some errands done at least. Have a great day peeps! Oh I'm re-joining Weight Watchers tomorrow because I like the meeting time better than Wed.
So glad the storm passed for you.
yeah for no school. I do WW's too.
Help!! Just found out I didn't get a job I really wanted and now I am planning on eating about 50 brownies tonight to cheer myself up!! Someone needs to tell me it won't cheer me up once I weigh myself!! I have tried telling myself but it's not working!!!
BACK AWAY FROM THE BROWNIES. UM is right they might satisfy you now because you're upset but you'll regret it later.
Hmmmmm, thinking! (heh)
Did I mention that I haven't packed ... anything... all the lists in the world haven't helped me get in together enough to get the jumk that is on the paper into a bag... Oh and I seem to have misplaced my camera.. or even worse I think my DD4 misplaced it
Congrats!! I hope you and your new hubby have a wonderful day tomorrow! I hope you post some pics for us to see!!! 
My gosh, that sucked! 
Interesting TR that would be, though. 
) to ya!
