Because i'm a crazy mom?

Because i'm a crazy mom of 4 kids?

Because I'm a crazy mom of 4 kids who runs a day care?

Because I'm a crazy mom of 4 kids who runs a day care and watches more kids?

Because I'm a crazy mon of 4 kids who runs a day care and watches more kids and goes to college?

You're right. Anything is possible, isn't it?

Happy first day of school Wendy!!!



Sorry I haven't been around. Just totally in a funk. I think I am crawling my way out of it but I really do apologize for not posting more. I haven't been doing so well on the diet but will be back on following my WDW trip next week.

Today is a snow day here!!

We don't get them often, in fact, this is the first measurable snowfall in this area in like 3-4 years. Right now we have about 4" on the ground. And this being NC, we have NO plows and NO salt. My cul-de-sac is completely pristine, has not been touched.

For those that might be interested, here are pics:

These are out my front door and my back patio door. Including the 9 mo old kitten going, what is THAT??

So, today I sit on the chaise lounge and enjoy being safe and warm.


Dawn, did you get anything in GA?

 

[UGABelle]

Good Luck today Wendy!

Also I have to give myself a because there were 2 dozen amazing-looking donuts in the break room this morning and I WALKED RIGHT BY and ate my canteloupe. Peep Power

I'm South Carolina and there's about 1 inch outside my window at work. They closed schools, so some kids are enjoying a Snow Day - if it's enough to call it that! We tend to overreact about snow in the South

Hope you're enjoying the day!

 

[punkin413]

Dawn, did you get anything in GA?

nope, not a single solitary flake. i've been here for almost 12 years now and i think it's snowed twice. like REALLY snowed. it's amazing what a difference the 300 miles between here and nashville makes! we would get at least 3 good snowfalls a year there.

Well funk or no funk..its good to "see" you today enjoy your relaxing snow day!! we have about a foot or more on the ground..nothing unusual for New England though..i can't imagine not having plows or salt..that would be BAD here!
Happy Tuesday everyone..i just listened to the speech by our new President..I almost forgot that was today! Regardless of who you voted for in November...Here is hoping for good things for our country

We don't get much here but when we do, it really shuts things down!

The only place they plow or salt is the interstate. So yeah, it's a better idea to just stay home!

Here 4" is considered a flurry. Not much closes down for 4 inches of snow, but of course we are well equipped with salters, sanders, plows and snow tires to get us by. GO out and make a snowman before the snow melts!

Wendy happy 1st day of school!

Monica~ when do you start your classes...or if you did already and I missed it....

 

[dwheatl]

Hope your first day was awesome, Wendy.

I liked the speech too. We watched a little with the kids today. Then I watched again when I got home. I don't know how much the kids got out of it today, but I hope they will remember this day in the future.

I started Monday. I go to computers on mon and wed and a psych class on tues.

I had a moody day yesterday which affected my emotional eating. Wasn't a good day. I hope I'm over it, and back on track today.

Well, since I'm late... Happy First Week of School!!!

 

[WI_DisneyFan]

Hey y'all! Hope everyone is doing well. I've had a pretty good week with my diet and exercise so far. I've been really strict with myself about not cheating (not counting Fridays which are my splurge days); and I've been pretty consistent with exercise: Saturday-Monday-Wednesday on the Bowflex, Sunday-Tuesday-Thursday some sort of cardio (last night was Tae-Bo). So we'll see what the scale tells me on Friday. My super secret pre-weigh in this morning didn't show me a number I wanted to see, but I know it's not for lack of effort. I like to tell myself that as long as I'm putting in the work and making sure I don't sabotage my diet, I won't be overly concerned with the scale. I've come too far to be upset about a pound or two.

I'm NOT looking forward to Biggest Loser next week! Sounds like the two young guys will be below the yellow line. NOT COOL!!!

Here's the update for our St. Valentine's Weight Massacre. Except for the two Peeps who didn't report in with a number, everybody either lost or stayed the same. Great job everybody!!!

 

[DisneyLaura]

Are you guys going to hate me if I say it's been mid 60's here this week? We go to WDW and DCL cruise in a week and I'm scared it will be colder there than here!!!

I did spend a year living in Minnesota and I feel really bad for all of you this winter.

I think you might have 40's. My aunt lives about an hour from Orland and she said yesterday she had to wear a sweatshirt to work.

So, on the evil mom front.

Oldest son woke up, slowly walked down the steps and this is what transpired:

DS: Uh, mom?

Me: Yes?

DS: What time is it?

Me: 7:44 (His bus comes at 7:10)

DS: Why didn't you wake me up?!

Me: Why didn't you set your alarm? (I hide a laugh)

DS: Uh, I don't have one.

Me: Ya right.

DS: Mom! I have a mid term today!

Me: I know.

DS: Why didn't you wake me?! (getting louder-frustrated)

Me: I didn't know I had to.

DS: Huh? (pause) Wait! What day is it?

Me: Friday.

DS: Friday?! (eyes getting big)

Me: Yes.

DS: But I have school toady! (hands go up in the air)

Me: No you don't.

DS: I don't? (quizzical look on face)

Me: No.

DS: Why?

Me: Cause it's too cold.........why don't you go back to sleep.

long pause.

I laugh.

DS: I'll remember this mom! (and he goes upstairs.)



The joys of parenting a pre-teen boy!

Look what we did today:

Some befores

Marking the right spot

After:

She looks older now to me

That's wonderful. She does look like a big girl but still a cutie pie

A friend just sent me this. I had to clean up the language, but it's funny either way.
A WOMAN'S WEEK AT THE GYM
Dear Diary,
For my birthday this year, my daughter (the dear) purchased a week of personal training at the local health club for me.

Although I am still in great shape since being a high school football cheerleader 43 years ago, I decided it would be a good idea to go ahead and give it a try.

I called the club and made my reservations with a personal trainer named Belinda, who identified herself as a 26-year-old aerobics instructor and model for athletic clothing and swim wear.

My daughter seemed pleased with my enthusiasm to get started! The club encouraged me to keep a diary to chart my progress.

MONDAY:
Started my day at 6:00 a.m. Tough to get out of bed, but found it was well worth it when I arrived at the health club to find Belinda waiting for me. She is something of a Greek goddess -- with blonde hair, dancing eyes and a dazzling white smile. Woo Hoo!! Belinda gave me a tour and showed me the machines. I enjoyed watching the skillful way in which she conducted her aerobics class after my workout today. Very inspiring! Belinda was encouraging as I did my sit-ups, although my gut was already aching from holding it in the whole time she was around. This is going to be a FANTASTIC week!

TUESDAY:
I drank a whole pot of coffee, but I finally made it out the door.

Belinda made me lie on my back and push a heavy iron bar into the air then she put weights on it! My legs were a little wobbly on the treadmill, but I made the full mile. Belinda's rewarding smile made it all worthwhile. I feel GREAT! It's a whole new life for me.

WEDNESDAY:
The only way I can brush my teeth is by laying the toothbrush on the counter and moving my mouth back and forth over it. I believe I have a hernia in both pectorals. Driving was OK as long as I didn't try to steer or stop. I parked on top of a GEO in the club parking lot.

Belinda was impatient with me, insisting that my screams bothered other club members. Her voice is a little too perky for early in the morning and when she scolds, she gets this nasally whine that is VERY annoying. My chest hurt when I got on the treadmill, so Belinda put me on the stair monster. Why the Heck would anyone invent a machine to simulate an activity rendered obsolete by elevators? Belinda told me it would help me get in shape and enjoy life. She said some other stuff too.

THURSDAY:
Belinda was waiting for me with her vampire-like teeth exposed as her thin, cruel lips were pulled back in a full snarl. I couldn't help being a half an hour late, it took me that long to tie my shoes.

Belinda took me to work out with dumbbells. When she was not looking, I ran and hid in the restroom. She sent another skinny witch to find me.

Then, as punishment, she put me on the rowing machine -- which I sank.

FRIDAY:
I hate that Belinda more than any human being has ever hated any other human being in the history of the world. Stupid, skinny, anemic, anorexic little cheerleader. If there was a part of my body I could move without unbearable pain, I would beat her with it.

Belinda wanted me to work on my triceps. I don't have any triceps! And if you don't want dents in the floor, don't hand me the darned barbells or anything that weighs more than a sandwich. The treadmill flung me off and I landed on a health and nutrition teacher.

Why couldn't it have been someone softer, like the drama coach or the choir director?

SATURDAY:
Belinda left a message on my answering machine in her grating, shrill voice wondering why I did not show up today. Just hearing her made me want to smash the machine with my planner. However, I lacked the strength to even use the TV remote and ended up catching eleven straight hours of the Weather Channel .

SUNDAY:
I'm having the Church van pick me up for services today so I can go and thank GOD that this week is over. I will also pray that next year my daughter (the poop) will choose a gift for me that is fun -- like a root canal or a hysterectomy.

I still say if God had wanted me to bend over, he would have sprinkled the floor with diamonds.

I got this email a while ago and it still makes me

i'm jealous! it was good - a bit salty. next time i'm using low sodium chicken broth. but i didn't want to mess with the recipe the first time i made it.

hope you guys had a good weekend. i fell down the steps yesterday and sliced my arm open. fun! it was really gross! i won't go into details but i've never seen arm fat come out like that before. yuck!

and this morning we woke up with no heat! luckily ray was off today for the holiday so he's dealing with the heating and air guy right now. i hope it doesn't cost us a fortune. thank goodness it's 40 degrees here and not -20! anyway, the diet is already out the window today because ray went to get firewood and went by arby's to get us lunch. he didn't ask what i wanted so he got me a kid's meal (what i usually get at fast food places). so the curly fries have blown my calorie count for sure! oh, well! i'll just start over tomorrow.

I read about your fall on your TR and hope you're better today

School started today.

I spent my extra 30 minutes driving around a parking lot full of cars parked any ol way. I don't understand why people cant park straight. So what if there's snow on the ground.

I had to park 3 lots away from my building.

I did think what a nice walk I had there and back.

Hope everyone had a nice weekend.

We've lost the pony! I am not kidding. I went to get it so I could mail it while I was out and when I looked in my purse it was gone!

Now I have to back track and so far I ain't coming up with anything!

Hope you find it

I can't see the pictures. It says page not found


Well moew news on my mom - she's going to start chemo and radiation first to shrink the tumor and then surgery. She goes to the oncologist tomorrow and then her surgeon on Monday. It almost feels like it's not real, does that make any sense. I have a hard time saying my mom has cancer. She lost almost 15 lb in a couple of months (she's really thin to begin with) and she's gained 2 lb back Thank you everyone for your prayers and kind words, it helps me a lot that my "friends" are there for me when I need them to talk to.

Wendy how was your first day of school?
