Escape to Neverland - A new Tagliarchy adventure!!

[NC Belle]

We had a nice warm day today---no coat or long sleeves were needed in the daytime...60s. We got some stuff at the grocery store to bbq tomorrow.

BlueBayou--- I hope that things well for you and your mom today.

Morning Taglikins!

I actually did some house de-cluttering yesterday....AND....I'm still 'in the mood', so more will be done today. When I'm done....I'll actually be able to dust and vacuum!

It's raining right now...which is a good thing. I have weeds to pulll (well, to hula-hoe) and it will be much easier now with the ground softer from the rain. See, even Mother Nature is cooperating with my cleaning plans!

Have a good Sunday everyone!

Hello!

I am new to this huge thread so ..

 

[BlueBayou]

Welcome Hollywoodhaha!

Good morning everyone. There is still a ton of stuff to do around here with my mom's move. She really can't do much - so it is all up to my husband and myself.

 

[geffric]

Morning..

welcome Hollywoodhaha! glad your here!! Pulll up a chair and just jump in..


BB- how is your MOM today? it is hard to move but under these circumstances

I was warm here yesterday too NCB..I was outside and guess what??? I saw LAWN!! yes really.. lawn.. wow!! didn't know I had that under the snow..( is there a tongue in cheek smilie???)

Eric has band practice and then working on a project. Geoff is at a LLD thing and then an Arrow of light and then a party.. so I will see him to change his clothes maybe..

and I need to finish the NHS application typing for Eric ..

 

[BlueBayou]

geffric - Thanks for asking about my mom. She is really, really needy. I am hoping that it is just the stress over the intial move - but I am fearful that her health/state of being has deteriorated to a much larger extent that I had anticipated.

It's the start of another week.

I was a real slacker last week and didn't workout once, cheated on my food, didn't fold my laundry - I'm pretty ashamed of myself!!!! So, I dragged my butt out of bed this morning to workout, and I told myself no more cheating on food (it's so hard in the winter)!!!!!


ibounce - I'm glad you are having some nice weather

Danauk - That's great that you don't have to make up those snowdays. How is weather now? Have you got anymore snow?

geffric - We may see 60's tomorrow Now watch us all get sick because we are running around without coats on

BB - I hope everything goes well with getting your mom settled Does she like her new house?

Belle - We used our grill this past weekend too - it was nice!!!!

Hollywood -
Please come by and visit often - we always love meeting new people!!!!




Well, I'm off to go workout, fold some laundry, do a load of laundry, and get ready for work - have a good day everyone!!

 

[Danauk]

Sorry for dropping by quickly again!

Well I though I might have to work today. It took me 15 mins to clear the car, I set off, then half way there (driving at 10mph) I got a text. So I pulled over to read it. It was the boss, school was closed again as the site was too dangerous. The builders from the site behind our school had ploughed the road and the snow had been pushed in front of the gate so we couldn't open them!! Then the drive up to the school was pure ice and as we do not have tyres suitable for ice no one could actually drive up there anyway!!
So I had another snow day!! I am so bored of staying in the house! My 2 teaching assistants did make it around this morning though with some cakes so we had tea and cakes together which was nice!! Oh and guess what the weather is like now? Yes, it's snowing again!!

Slo I'm finding the diet and excersise hard too at the moment, I'm blaming the weather!

BlueBayou Sorry to hear that your mum isn't doing so well.


Everyone else: Hi there, I hope you are all OK.

She is very fortunate to have you guys!!

What tapes are you doing slo? I was THINKING of doing the crunchless abs one. I hate my tummy

How nice! I love having visitors on yucky days. It makes them a lot brighter!

Ibounce.... the weather is pretty nice here too. But I won't brag...too much!!

BELLE how is dad doing? I've been thinking of him

Geffric...how are you doing since you've been home all day? I bet you are bored to death. I know I was...at first. Now I am used to being bored!! hehehe

 

[slo]

We are having a small break from winter here in the Chicago area - we are going to be in the 60's today It's nice to be able to go outside and not freeze, but I'm sure it won't last very long, so I won't get to used to it.


Danauk - Isn't it funny how there are times you would kill for time to stay home and do nothing, and then when you get it, you are bored to tears - this happens to me too I hope the snow ends soon, so you and everyone else, can get life back to normal

cheeringmom - I'm a huge fan of Leslie Sansone. Her videos are called "Walk Away the Pounds" and some are easy, and some are very challenging. I bet you would like them!!!



Well, I gotta run and get Steph out of bed and ready for school, then I need to get dinner in the crock pot.
Have a good day!!!

Morning..

CMOM - I am not bored yet as I have been looking for a job, networking and cleaning..

SLO - it was so beautiful yesterday.. I wish it could stay like that..

Hi to all.. I need to work out and then be back later..

 

[ibouncetoo]

Morning Taglikins!

It's my favorite day of the week...."LOST" day!

Stay warm everybody.

We have been enjoying the warmer temps this week...but, we are going to be cold again soon.


FIL mini update--- He was doing well enough to be singing with his church choir. He does not like the side effect of the meds which makes food seem less than desirable in flavor and the big weight loss since late December.


Geffric--- some pd for that job search.

Slo/C-mom--- NC Beast uses his Walk Away the Pounds dvds almost every night. I'm slowly getting into it. We can't do it at the same time because of the room size and Jessie gets in the way.

My neck issues are back with a vengence
After I worked out Monday, my neck was really bothering me. It contined to be bad Tues, and also Wed morning when I woke up. I worked out anyway (I considered not to, but then I told myself that I've been making to many excuses lately), and my neck went from bad to excrusiating (sp?) which resulted in a terrible migraine I laid down at work for an hour (thank goodness I work for myself), and then all day I did almost nothing, because I just couldn't think straight. Needless to say, I was in bed by 8pm last night, and if I didn't have little children and a puppy, it would have been earlier than that. This morning my neck is still excrusiating, and my headache is still there (there's nothing worse than working up with the same headache you went to bed with), and I'm praying it doesn't go from a headache to another migraine. I have a lot to do at work, and I don't like using my saw when I feel bad (I don't want to lose a finger ). So, I guess I won't be working out for awhile, so I can allow my neck to rest - so annoying!!!

FIL mini update--- He was doing well enough to be singing with his church choir. He does not like the side effect of the meds which makes food seem less than desirable in flavor and the big weight loss since late December.

I'm so glad your FIL is feeling better - such good news!!!
I will continue to keep him in my thoughts and prayers, and please keep us posted.



Well, I'm off to get Steph up for school and fed - have a great day!!!

 

[slo]

Stephanie doesn't have school today - I love that!!!!!
I let the girls stay up till 10pm, and we watched Ace of Cakes together. Sitting with my girls on the couch, all cuddled up together under blankets, is like heaven on earth to me. Whenever I get the chance to do this, I take advantage of it, because I know in a blink of an eye, they'll be older, and not want to do that anymore I just love my girls!!!!!


Well, I should go get ready for work - have a great day everyone!!!!

for them all.. BTW what day is it that Stephanie doesn't have school??

My boys are off Monday for President's Day.. but Eric has track at 9 am.. Well it is official.. I hate cleaning.. but then who does.. it is a thankless task that the next day needs to be donw again.. but I love to cook and especially bake.. so we have had wonderful meals and made from scratch baked goods - pumpkin bread, banana bread, pumpkin pie, fresh strawberries coated with chocolate, chocolate crepes, and brownies.. I have "only " gained lots of weight.. I need to stop this.. maybe I'll make a chocolate cheesecake..

 

[cheeringmom]

Happy
Valentine's
Day!

 

[slo]

Sorry I haven't checked in since Friday

Happy belated Valentines Day everyone!!!!!
I hope you all had a good Valentines Day.
What did you do?
We didn't do anything, but that's how I like it.
I worked that day, then we went to church, and had dinner, that Kevin made. We did exchange cards, and we gave the girls tickets to see The Jonas Brothers in 3D - they were very excited!!!!

Yesterday was a very low key day - which I love!!! I was finally able to take Sophie for a walk, which we both loved. I miss the fresh air, and I miss getting out and walking - I just love it!!!! I can hardly wait for the time change, and for the weather to start getting warmer so I can walk more.

Today, Stephanie doesn't have school, so it's nice to not have to rush this morning. Pretty soon though, the girls do have to get up to go to Grandma's house, so I can go to work. I wish I had more employees that could work during the day so I could be home with them, but maybe someday

Well, I gotta go take out Sophie, and I gotta jump in the shower.
Have a great day today everyone!!!

Good morning all,
Sorry I have been MIA for a while again, things got pretty hectic last week. As you know we got lots of snow (half of my back garden is still covered, the other half looks like a small lake!!) so we didn't get back into work until last Tuesday, then as we had missed 4 days we had to work late to get things done. I was lucky and took a fair bit of work home with me to do, but others didn't! But the good thing is that we have a week off this week and as I got a lot of things done on our snow days I don't have that much to do!!

Tomorrow we are going to visit one of my Dis board buddies who lives about 90 minutes away. She had an operation on her toe and hasn't been able to walk for the past 3 weeks so we are going to visit and cheer her up!! Then in the afternoon we are going to go into Birmingham to the Sealife centre. I really like it there, and we get in for free using our Alton Towers annual pass as they are run by the same company.

Right now Pete is doing a little DIY, we are finally getting the bathroom finished that we started last summer! He is just putting the TV up!!

Have a great day everyone.
