[ILuvCrush]

you could be worse..... I make a to do list every day I'm off.... I put DISing on my list...because I KNOW if nothing else I'll accomplish that and get to cross it off

I went to the fair at lunch today...it's across the street from the hospital. They had chocolate covered bacon....... I REALLY don't recommend it....if you are wondering

Phillip and I were watching What would Bryan Botano cook on Food Network the other night and he was doing the whole show dedicated to bacon and we started to think of things we could do to bacon including chocolate covered...I thought it would taste yummy but now I think I'll pass!!

YAY for the closing off the house Julez...you guys must be so excited!!

OMG! I love that show with Brian Boitano! He's so adorable. Marc & I watched the episode with Polenta bites. Anyone surprised?

Is this the same Brian Boitano that used to be a figure skater???

Hi girls. I'm here but lurking a lot lately. Feeling in a major funk and not wanting to spread it around too much. Job hunting sucks and the stress is going to start becoming financial soon. We are actually starting the process of getting a mortgage on our house so we can use some of the equity we have built up. I know it's what we have to do and it's what makes the most sense right now but it's really hard to swallow the thought of taking out a 30 year mortgage on a house we would have had paid off in 6 years to help pay off some credit cards and a car that would have been paid off in 3 years. It just feels like a big step backwards! I'm comforting myself with the thought that once I have a job, paying just 700 more a month will build back 10,000 in equity each year

Congrats Julez on your upcoming closing!

Chocolate covered bacon...I think I would have to at least try it. I thought chocolate covered potato chips sounded wierd until I tried them. It's the whole sweet and salty thing!

You list makers are too funny! I've never been much of one, although I do use them more frequently now than I used to. I blame pregnancy hormones that I just never got my old memory back! I had a friend from when I was teaching who was a MAJOR list maker. I would put things on her list like "go for ice cream with Katie after school" because I knew if it was on her list, she couldn't resist the opportunity to cross it off!

Disney bought marvel huh? My first thought was that may be the 5th theme park that is constantly rumored. I can't see mixing the superheroes with the classic Disney characters but an entire park surrounding them (perhaps a bit more on the high thrill rides side like universal) could be pretty cool

Glad to hear things seem to be going well for everyone! Love you guys!!!!!!!

Hi gang,

Mega list maker here. LOVE it. And adore the feeling of crossing things out. Nothing better! Well almost nothing.

I am obsessed with the What Would Brian Boitano Make show on Food Network. So funny. I have also become addicted to Project Runway. I've never watched before! Now I'm going through past seasons on Netflix. Top Chef Las Vegas is my other obsession.

Julez- congrats on the house. Can't wait for pictures and tales of decorating!

Katie- I can only imagine how stressful it is. I'm so sorry. Wish there was something more I could do. But you'll have to settle for hugs , moral support , good vibes and some pixie dust.

Work has become mega crazy busy almost overnight. I am getting way stressed about vacation. NO idea how I will get it all done by then but one thing for sure I am going to be ready for one. In 22 days!!!!

Have a great Wednesday, gnomies!

Thanks Gnomies!

I went to the doctors and everything is great. He thinks I'm allergic to the steri strips they used on my incisions so he took them off all but the largest one so they wouldn't irritate me anymore.

They weren't going to weigh me today but I asked them too so I could keep the encouragement going....

Well I lost almost 20lbs since my last visit!! YAYAYAYAYA!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

So I've decided to track my weight loss with a 100lb ticker to start with.






WOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
