Waking up the thread. Thursday. Payroll and prep-ing for an insurance audit. Good times.

Paula - YOU beat me by a minute.

Sorry Lyz...

Hi! All is well here. Or at least ok. We are all just tired. SO tired. But Kelly is bouncing back beautifully.

I made it to the gym today (my mom watched Kel). 4 miles on the elliptical and then for a 2 mile run on the TM. I am slowly going to start tipping the balance on that until I am back to all running. NO PAIN today. At all. First time I can say that in I don't know how long. So that is a victory.

Also, it's fleece weather and of course this makes me happy. Ask Liz about that.

That was fun, thanks for the link Lyz.

OMG Lyz. I'm crying. That is so cool.

I booked airfare last night. Explained to DGF how excited and scared I am about the half marathon and going to WDW with her. She told me to relax, we'll have a great time and I'll finish the race.

Erika - so glad to hear about Kelly. And look at you. No pain.

Nancy. I ADORE this idea! How did you get into it?

Stephen's cousin. There's a little video "infomercial" on the website: http://www.otherworld.org/ that gives a little bit of an idea of what it is about. It is so much fun. We leave tomorrow, and won't be back until really late Sunday - totally unplugged the entire weekend.

Tired is managable. Glad Kelly is doing well!

my new LLBean catalog arrived recently....

I watched it Nancy. Looks so interesting. I love the no connection to the outside world.

It would terrify me because I am such an introvert. Unfortunately. I so wished I loved people. I am so envious of people who love people. I sound likie a song, eh? on another note - Ms. Streisand doesn't age - how does that work? Tired. Don't mind me.

Have a wonderful time.

Looks like I am putting the thread to bed tonight. That hasn't happened in a while!

Things here a good. The docs said that we would see a big change in Kelly at the 24 hour mark (from when we left the hospital) and WOW were they on target. Literally 24 hours later it was like she "woke up." She was instantly so much more alert and active. Crazy. But that means all of the drugs and other toxic crap are finally out of her system. Other than being tired and sore, she is fine.

Finally watched BL tonight. OMG! You know, she IS this season's Vicky. But I hated the show that season. I don't like it when it turns into every other reality show out there with the back stabbing and game playing. The whole point of the freaking show is that they are all supportive of one another and all of the good touchy feel crap.

Alright, nighty night.

Good Morning!

Erika SO glad to hear Kel is doing well, and that you managed a day without pain!

Everyone - Hi

So my computer at home is officially dead. We ordered a laptop yesterday and that should be here by Tuesday so im hoping for internet service to be connected Wednesday - fingers crossed!

Exercise is going well, im sticking to walking and 10mins a day on the cross trainer and so far so good I haven't had *too* much back pain.

Tomorrow is the fancy dress party - I got my Pink Lady outfit ironed and hung up yesterday ready! Pictures I will post next week hopefully!

Hope everyone is doing well

 

[DisneyWorld Delight]

Can't wait for pictures Kelly!

Ronda - glad your DGF told you to relax!!! I'm sure she'll enjoy a vacation no matter where, Disney is no exception.

 

[goofyfan-12]

E - so happy to hear that Kel is gettng back to her normal self.

Ronda - listen to your GF and relax. The trip will be fine and you will finish the race!

Lisa - I'm not sure how Babs does it, but she is starting to make the rest of us look bad. Not cool...

Cathie - hope things are going well in Colorado.

Hi to anyone I may have missed!

Off to clean my desk of the stacked to do list. Catch up with you all later.

Besides Nancy, the weekend warrior, anyone got anything exciting going on this weekend?

 

[cathie1327]

Good morning everyone.

First off, I must say, that while I love it because it is beautiful and offers lots of things to do, there is one reason above all that I love Colorado....

The Rockies are in the playoffs!!!!

Okay, sorry, I'm a bit of a closet baseball fan and so this is super exciting for me.

Otherwise, I'm getting sick of Colorado right now because all summer it was crappy and rained; it barely got to 90 at all. Then the day we got back from Orlando it was a lovely 47 degrees and now it's FREEZING! And they were calling for the possibility of snow this weekend. ARGH! I really don't like the cold.

Anywho. I'm in a better mood today as I think Carlos and I are going out on a just us have fun date. We need it desperately, we have been fighting like cats and dogs lately. I don't think it's because we spent too much time together on vaction however, because we didn't get this grouchy last year when we went....granted last year we were by OURSELVES.... jus' sayin... I think it's more of a combination of the stress from vacation then I come back and I'm stressed over all the bologna going on and so is he, and it doesn't help that two of my friends have gotten engaged since we got home.....I have 4 friends getting married next year. Wait. scratch that. 5. And well, considering he and I have been together the longest out of all of them, I can't help but feel a bit impatient. I know it'll happen when it needs to and when we are BOTH ready so I can't rush it...but...well....my birthday is in 11 days and I am starting to feel a little older than I'd like lol. I know I"m not super old, but I honestly wanted different things in my life by this point, that I have yet to acquire. The first and most important of which being a marriage. And secondly, a baby. Having had the unfortunate bout that I did with pregnancies, I can't help but feel a bit impatient about that too because I'm ready to be a mommy already....

Patience is a virtue...patience is a virtue....

Okay sorry that turned into a REALLY long vent that I didn't intend.
Eating good, have been getting all my water in, but haven't gotten back to my exercise schedule since I've been back. BUT! My two new bras I had just bought for myself that were an astronomical size (getting a bra fitting had it's downs and ups) are too big, which makes me REALLY excited, because I need to get rid of all the weight on the front of me. It's ruining my spine, and the more I lose, the closer I get to getting my reduction surgery done. Yay!

Hope everyone has a fantastic day!!!

Quick drive by for me. Still super tired--just can't get out of my own way. But fine otherwise. Heading up to the lake house in a bit--just for some R&R. We will be there today and tomorrow and come home early Sunday since we have a bunch of soccer games. I think the change of scenery will be nice for us.

Sounds like it will be a quiet week-end around here. Liz will be doing the concert tour, Nancy will be running around in the woods, I will be at the lake....anyone else have plans for the weekend?

Kelly--thanks for all of your good thoughts and YES, must have pics!

Paula--thanks for always remembering to check in on me!

Liz/Lyz/Kat--we'll talk at some point, mkay?

Cathie--so, getting impatient, eh? Remind me of your age again? 23??

 

[lisaviolet]

I'l be back later to catch up.

Down 2.8 for the BL.

 

[cathie1327]

Cathie--so, getting impatient, eh? Remind me of your age again? 23??

Yeah....I'll be 24 this month. I know, I know, it's not that old and I have a lot of life ahead of me, but I am getting impatient! I've been taking care of myself since I was 18 , so I grew up pretty fast and I just expected all the rest to come fast too! lol

I always wanted to be a younger mom, that way when my grandkids come around, I'll be young enough to still play with them and do things with them. That way when my kids have stuff going on, I can do it with them. Just expectations I set for myself a long time ago, I guess.

I am very free for the next week... D works Sat/Sun and then is gone from Mon AM through Fri at 10PM.

Still stressing about stuff here, and don't have any news at all yet. Sigh.


But, on the fun side, tonight is the season opener for the Hurricanes. I have the back of the truck filled with light beer, sandwich makings, fruits and veggies, a table, chairs, and am all ready for tailgating!! I have two friends meeting me here around 4:30 and we are headed over the the arena, and D and his brother are meeting us there as soon as D's brother gets in from Charlotte. Should be a good time!

Rest of the weekend, the couch and I are going to have a good, long get-together. Might even add a few purring kitties to the mix.
