In Search of My Body - Not the One I Ate, VOL 7! Princesses? Nope, just us Goddesses!

[cantwaitvaca09]

AKAsnowwhite OMG. I can't belive that happened at Costco... I can't belive someone would try to take a TV, Run out of Costco adn get in the parked car.
Crazy!

You crack me up.. I can glad to know that my kids are not the only bad ones. I bet she is bad all year, but I don't notice as much beacuse I am not spending all my $$$ on her the rest of the year.

Let me just rant for on more sec.. So I take my 5yr old to the movies on Friday night to see Princess and the Fog, little theather in town. So gets out of school early, I am off work, I pick her up to come home to a decorate table so we can do our ginger bread house and paint orniments. After DH got home and we did all of that it was 6:00 movie starts at 7. I say DD, do you want to go to the movie with just mommy and not your little sister. She is all excited, we get there, I buy popcorn, movie starts at 7. THEN>>>>. 7:40 I hear... I'm tired I want to go home. I'm like ugg. Sit on my lap, take a nap its ok. She goes on and on (not loud) So I have to leave, I don't get to see the end of the movie. Come to find out, she tells her Dad that she was afraid of the vodoo guy.

Kids..

Nancy--great job on the run today!

I have to run on the TM tonight since I am home with Kel. My six-milers have been AWESOME, so I am cranking up to 7.5-ish this week.

And Jo, no I never ran before C25K either. Never. Ever.

Ronda--sadly, we are out for marathon week-end this year. My stress fracture this fall just put me way off schedule. I supposed I could still go and just do the Half, but my heart isn't in it. So, next year it shall be. Until then, I will focus on the Princess in March.

I came *this close* to thwarting a robbery today. (indavertantly, of course ) I pulled into the Costco parking lot and as I came around the corner some guy ran right in front of me carrying a big tv box. RAN. Crazy fast. I literally slammed on my brakes so as not to hit him (hah. mistake. shoulda clocked that jerkwad). Then, I turned into the row that I was headed to park in, and the car that he had jumped into tried to pull out of it's parking space (really?? Your getaway driver parked in a PARKING SPACE? is he really that stupid?) Again - I almost hit them. However, not only did I stop, but so did they momentarily. Long enough for one of the employees to get their license plate number. (again. REALLY? You didn't make an attempt to cover your license plate? You ARE stupid). So that was my excitement for today.


Holy badass Batman! I wonder if they'll end up on Dumbest Criminals?!



AWESOME Kelly! Do you have something special in mind for them?[/COLOR]

I don't know yet, but I do know its going to be a treat for myself! DH said to go for it and really blow them on something that I wouldn't normally buy, so Im going to have a look around for something!

Im watching the Military Awards on TV, its very sad so I have a ton of tissues next to me, but it makes me unbelievably proud

 

[HockeyKat]

Nancy!! World's dumbest criminals.

No kids, but my husband sure is rotten right before Christmas.

Kelly, what is a breadcake?

 

[3DisneyKids]

Wow, Nancy! Wild stuff!

And I just love that everyone is embracing the use of badass!

 

[3DisneyKids]

Jo--here is a cheat sheet for you--

3DisneyKids = Erika
AKASnowWhite = Nancy
GoofyFan = Paula
DisneyWorldDelight = Lyz
HockeyKat = Kat (duh)
DisneyGalUK = Kelly
SeptemberGirl = Liz
adstrw = Amiee
AmyKab = Amy (duh again)

Ronda, Cathie, and Dawn are all easy to figure out. Did I miss anyone?

 

[cantwaitvaca09]

Thanks Erika, Please forgive me if I don't remember everyone's name
I will learn them I promise.

 

[adsrtw]

Nancy, it would have been cool to have nudged him a bit with your car. I bet theywould have paid for your damages.

Back after my bubble bath

5.5 miles done. I only had 4.5 miles scheduled, but I know Nancy did 5 today and she wasn't feeling well, so I did the extra mile for her. Solidarity, you know.

Way to go 5.5,
I'm at 1.5 HA HA HA So Sad HA HA

That's 1.5 more than me!

E and Nancy and Amy and Ronda are our runners... I think sometimes I want to be a runner but I am pretty much a fail at it.


Last night was our last hockey game of the season. Ended 5-5. Next season I am playing Sun night games, then practice on Tues, then practice and a pickup game (2 hour session in total) on Thursdays. Whee! And somewhere in there I need to train for the princess half...

A few more pictures from ICE! It's not all of them, but I don't want to flood the thread with them.

The kiddie slide:

Taylor didn't hesitate to go down the steeper slide.

For perspective, the tree is about 3 feet tall:

I don't know how well you can see it, but the floor is brown colored ice and the curtain is red, purple and yellow ice blocks.


The nativity:

I really wish I had a direct pic of it, but it didn't turn out due to the lighting. The pillars are about 12 feet tall.

The shepherd tending his flock:

This was the final sculpture (excluding the Merry Christmas wreath). The picture does not do this justice at all. For perspective, the angel was at least 12 feet tall. The detail on it's face was amazing. I was in awe. The wings were huge! The pedestal was about forehead level to me.

I highly recommend visiting ICE at any of the Gaylord resorts. Just dress very warmly! My contacts felt like they were going to freeze to my eyes. The artists who put this together are truly talented. They use all kinds of gadgets to carve (chainsaws, picks, knives, files, kitchen gadgets, and warm water to smooth the edges).

nice to know when someone's got your back.




EE- love the pics. That is so amazing.

 

[AKASnowWhite]

Nancy, it would have been cool to have nudged him a bit with your car. I bet theywould have paid for your damages.

One of the managers said she wished I had hit him "just a little bit". It's truly sad to me that someone would be so desparate quite honestly. I'm sure that tv was on it's way to be sold for cash...

 

[3DisneyKids]

LISA in violet. For you Lisa.



OMG! How could I forget!?!?

nice to know when someone's got your back.

Always, babe.

And Jo--don't be discouraged about 1.5. OMG, I remember my post when I first ran 2 miles without stopping. I swear, I was so excited you'd think I had created world peace or found the cure for cancer. Celebrate every step.

Listen pipsqueak - forget me again and I'll hijack a Fed Ex truck myself and whip snowballs at you. Of course I'll have to bend a bit to get a good hit.

And I have quite the arm Erika. So watch yourself. You should see my spiral. Hey - do you play football?

to Nancy. Coal to E or whatever they call you.

 

[lisaviolet]

Hi Jo.

Welcome!

 

[goofyfan-12]

Way to go 5.5,
I'm at 1.5 HA HA HA So Sad HA HA

Trust me Jo, if I can get on the exercise bandwagon anyone can. I went from barely being able to make it through a Leslie Sansone walk away the pounds DVD to strength training, bike races and now 1/2 marathon training over the course of the last year. I am planning on walking the majority of the marathon, but shhh I may run some of it - just don't tell Erika or she'll be back in my nightmares where she shows up at my doorstep and forces me to run to Maine from upstate NY!!! (Love you E!!!) Seriously, start small and build. This is a race where slow and steady will get you there just fine.

Nancy - enjoy having the kids home for a while!!! BTW - gained a pound a JC this week and mom is cooking meatloaf for Tuesday Night Dinner.

Note to self - Christmas cookies are not a substitute for lunch. I am going to kill one of my contractors for delivering not one, but two cookie trays to the office for the holidays. Just as I was getting over the cookie coma from last week. Oy... Must not eat cookies, must not eat cookies, must not eat cookies...

Have a great night everyone...

What an incredible picture Amiee. Just beautiful. The permanent resizing on photobucket is now in a weird place. Is that the issue? I wish it was bigger. It's gorgeous.

Can't breathe...I swear, that is the funniest thing I have read in ages! Pipsqueak! She actually went there! Whatever they call me...HI LAR IOUS!

Love you, Lisa, you know that!
