I am a little miffed with my 2 year old. He likes to watch DVD's and we try to keep them out of his reach, but he is one determined little boy. He wanted to watch Nemo and guess what---he not only scratched the widescreen dvd, but also the full screen one as well. Now we are watching Cars and he has scratched it to, but not as bad. Oh yeah---we had to toss Toy Story for the same reason. Evidently on one day he decided to see if they would go across the tile on the floor like his cars do. I love him, but it is costing me to replace these. I know what you are all thinking--put a hand to his butt and move the dvds. That has been done--but not until after we realized what he had done. He goes through phases of what shows he watches and we have ust moved back into the Nemo phase this morning and it doesn't work. RANT OVER Going to ebay to see if I can relace these cheap.

This is exactly why we are in the process of converting all of our DVDs to digital...no space issues (stacks of DVDs around) and there is no way to ruin the movie...except if you delete it!

Talk about an OMG this is why I must be a peep moment! I am an attorney and I represent a few municipalities ...ok how does this connect to Peephood? you ask...hang on you'll see.

Last night I was at a meeting of a town board. I always sit up at the table with the town board or whoever I am representing. The meetings are always opened with the pledge to the flag. Well most of the time I need to face forward to salute the flag, but in the town I was in last night the meeting room is rather small and the flag is actually behind the Board's table so the board and I have to turn our backs to the public to face the flag. Well my chair is right in front of the flag. I sit about a foot in front of the flag. Last night as we are reciting the pledge, it occured to me that for all these years the public has had to look at my to salute the flag!!!! but it gets worse, all of these meetings are vidoetaped and put on local television. SO for a number of years my incredibly large has been on T.V. I was absolutely mortified thinking of this. Like what if people are sitting in their living rooms watching local government in action and making fun of my bootay? Talk about inspiration to stick with my peeps! So 1/4 like this 1/4 like this and 1/2 like this

you are so silly!!! but i love that you can laugh at yourself.

so guess what i got to do this morning? i got to go to longhorn at 8:30 for a meeting. FUN!!! we are having some new stuff come out next month so we had a meeting about it. so i was eating our new silver city strip (strip steak with grilled shrimp on top and a garlic sauce over it), colorado renegade (sirlion with a grilled portobello mushroom, asparagus and sundried tomatoes on top), bananas foster cheesecake, mango heat margarita, raspberry lynchberg lemonade and blue moon beer at 9:00 this morning. talk about strange. i only had a few bites/sips of each so hopefully i didn't do too much damage.

my apologies for mentioning all of the above to you guys. i know....bad peep.

on the bright side, i made $110 last night. my last table's check was $193. the guy put $20 down on the table for my tip and goes, "is that a good enough tip for you?" i just said, "i can't tell you that - it's not up to me." he goes, "that's 20 percent, right?" um......no. i said, "no, sir. " he says, "what's 20 percent of 193?" i immediately said "38." he goes, "how did you come up with that so fast????" um.....19 times 2 is 38. people AMAZE me. so he put another $20 on the table.

Yes...I bow to the Peeps Patrol this week..you guys rocked...21 people are registered...2 did not post their weight...1 was on the off week w/ our team..so out of 18 able to be counted...only 1 gained and 1 stayed the same!!! That is great!

Body Boarders...we only had 14 Members registered...2 registered this week so did not post weights yet for the challenge...1 was on the Peeps team this week...so we only had 11 able to be counted...of that 11, 9 lost and 2 gained.

One thing I wanted to clarify...I noticed some are having even numbers each time they post...so can we get a count of who is using digital scales and who is using the standard dial scale. We might change the way we use the numbers if more are using one versus the other to be fair to everyone...so please pm me quick and just say #1 digital #2 Digital w/10th's or #3 traditional. THANKS!!!

Well. I just survived a house full of loud 8 year old boys for our son Riley's birthday party. I wont tell you about the TWO (small) cupcakes I ate and the TWO pieces of pizza I also ate. I will tell you how totally sick my tummy is right now.

CONGRATULATIONS PEEPS! WE ROCK!!!
special congrats to the top 5!!!!!

Wendy, I've been wondering when that party was going to be. I knew it had to be around this time of year. I was actually going to ask you. Remember how much fun we had with it last year Mrs. Utahmama! Did we get awesome goody bags this year?

The "Body" part came from "In Search of My Body..Not the one I ate" our thread title.
The "Boarders" part came because we are on the DisBoards.

I hope the cupcake gives you explosive diarrhea...
okay...
no I don't cause then you will win again next week.

This is why part of me misses VHS and cassettes.
I had to burn my sweeney todd soundtrack three times because I kept scratching my copies! and there were no two year olds involved!

punkin - when did you start working at longhorns? Are you just picking up shifts or do you have a regular schedule? Geez! How many hours a week do you work?

 

[pigget74]

Utah--I will be heading out sometime this week looking for things to sew for Ms. Rebekah. I am looking for fabric--just curious about how much do you use on average on the ones you make. Just trying to get an idea on material--saw some on ebay but had no clue if it would be enough. I know that you would use more than I would---just trying to get an idea. Thanks.

i started working there in late january. we've been SO SLOW lately with court reporting and my paychecks in february were half of what they normally are. i haven't had a decent paycheck since like october. i only work at longhorn's on the weekends though. but it's funny - as soon as i get going there, we get REALLY BUSY at work with court reporting. i have so much typing i don't know what to do! which is a good thing....but not for longhorn's. i talked to them the other day about this and my manager is just going to schedule me 1 shift a week until i tell her different. i guess it's murphy's law - as soon as i get a part-time job, i don't have time for it!

 

[LMO429]

Just got back home after a LONG day! Everthing I order at dinner I only ate half of what they gave me...I had a lobster avocado salad at Bar Americain that was DELICIOUS!!! Considering I went out to dinner I ate pretty well..I did have 2 cosmos though and one ketel one and club...I was pretty buzzed but it went away!!! but i dont feel guilty at all about it. that is what i love about weight watchers...you can eat what you want and have a life nothing is off limits just go back on the program tomorrow. I like going to bed tonight not feeling guilty.

oh and if you have not seen the play Jersey Boys!! go see it!!! it was FANTASTIC!!!!!

WAY TO GO PEEPS

Congrats to all the participants.


Thanks DiZneydawn for all your hard work and the cool stats. I like stats.


Well I have been evil(e) since Friday night. A full 24 hours of non Peeplike eating. Sigh. That is my current struggle. I have no middle ground- either hardcore dieting or binge city.

Ok Team Peep. I am ready to spring Forward (change your clocks yo) and be back on track for the team!

Before I forget, Hollywood Video does scratch repair for a buck per item!

I get 2 yards of fabric I like...if I don't have a pattern right there to tell me how much to buy (on the back). I'm on a kick of buying 3 co-ordinating prints so I can make shorts and a top with trim for example. COME to the family board and look for the boutiquers thread (usually on top) and lurk. OMGosh GREAT stuff posted and on page one of that thread is an archive full of photos.

LOve the freedom of ww! Now I'm totally craving avocado and lobster salad. Thanks! I had TWO cupcakes and TWO pieces of pizza today. Because it was a WAY stressful birthday party at my house today with no less than 75 boys in my house (12).
Yikes, I don't get out much, I haven't heard of Jersey Boys. What is it about?

Feast or Famine eh?

I almost forgot about changing the clocks.

Very un-peeplike eating today for me too. Back on the wagon tomorrow.

I want to be in the top 5 again!

 

[dwheatl]

I didn't get around to posting yesterday, but I was down .2. I'm really having trouble getting on the wagon. I'm letting stress derail me from my goal of eating healthy. On the good side, I did make it to the gym 3 times last week despite a hectic schedule, and got in today too. Now if I could just get back to eating like I should ...

Wow!!! sounds like a crazy bday party!!! 75 boys that alot!!!! I LOVE CUPCAKES!!!!!

Jersey Boys is a broadway show about the story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. I didnt think I would know any of the songs but I knew everyone from years of my mom blasting 50s 60s and 70s music on the stereo in my house my whole life.
