In Search of My Body vol. 10 - taking it one paper towel at at time

[poppinspal]

Just wanted to say hello to everyone. I'm in Florida, just north of Vero Beach at the moment. It's beautiful where we are and the weather is amazing. It's nice being away with Brian and to just have this time to relax.

 

[3DisneyKids]

Jo--glad you got some drugs.

Meg--have an awesome time! I LOVE Vero Beach!

 

[cantwaitvaca09]

[HockeyKat]

*YAWN* Where IS everyone these days???

Having the kind of day I can't talk about in public. Is it Happy Hour yet??

 

[3DisneyKids]

It's our anniversary today. Apparently we didn't heed the warning...

 

[cantwaitvaca09]

Checking in, no Jillian this moring, I felt to yucky, I did 30 mins of elliptical after work.

Have a good night all.

Alexa wants to post some Smiles..

 

[AKASnowWhite]

So go ahead and post your goals and I will put it all in a chart and post it and updated it weekly.

I'm up for a challenge, but need to make my goals rather modest for the next 10 days. The play is March 25th and 26th - after that I can get my life back!

My short term goals will be: drink my water, make healthy food choices and avoid mindless snacking. I'll add tracking and exercise goals after when I can breath again!

I'm off to run errands this morning, then this afternoon I get to cut out 7 matching dresses. In 7 different sizes no less, so I can't just stack and cut. After the matching 7 dresses, I have a couple more yet to be altered, a fitted womans vest to make (think Ann of Green Gables), a fancy schmancy top...and then 2 more dresses that I haven't figured out yet. The director wants it all for a "costume parade" next Tuesday. I made no such promise. Friday before the show opens. That's what I promised.


Meg - enjoy your vacation!

Jo - feel better

E - Happy Anniversary!

Ronda - are you gearing up for your 20 miles? I must have told you about the 20 miler I did on the TM, yes?

Paula & Kat - thinking of you guys today!

Lisa - how's the new digs? and how are YOU? Healing? Feeling good I hope!

Karen - I gain weight when I'm sick too. What's that saying? Feed a cold, starve a fever? Or is it Feed a fever, starve a cold? Matters not. I always feed EVERYTHING illness, stress, boredom, joy, pain...I feed it all. <sigh> feel better my friend.

EE, Kelly, Liz, Amy

Nancy I don't know how you do it twice a year! Omg!!

I'm just sitting here doing my regular Wednesday running around deal. Driving kids from one place to another beginning at 2 and ending at 7. Bah. At least it is only like this one day a week.

I am so ready for spring. It is cold a sleeting today. Gross. I miss the sun. Florida had sun. It's days like these that I want to move out of Maine.

 

[Ronda93]

The weather has broken! It has been gorgeous the last couple of days. It snowed Sunday night, but then shot up into the 60s and 70s. Combined with the time change I am like the energizer bunny after work. I get off around 4:00 and have plenty of daylight to work with. So much is getting done.

Part of this energy burst could be anticipation. Four more sleeps until DISNEY!

Nancy - 20 on the TM. No, I haven't heard about that! I hated 12. Tell me what conspired to make you do that?! I am excited about my run tomorrow (more weather euphoria). We're supposed to have perfect weather Saturday, as well (38/56).

Karen - strangely enough, when I had a cold a few weeks ago, I expected my cough to get worse while I was running. I also expected to blow my nose a bunch. I got the trash can, a box of tissues, set it all by the TM. Didn't have any trouble. Coughed less running than I did sitting at my desk. Go figure. Hope you feel better. Hope you're getting this weather, too.

Kat - is Wednesday in trouble, too?

E - happy anniversary. Ours is tomorrow.

The dog we fostered got adopted! We returned her to the shelter last Thursday. While we were out of town over the weekend Sue read on the dog FB group that Kaylie had been adopted (had a hold placed). Her new family picked her up today! We got a chance to see her Sunday night. Being around other pups and people was great for her. She actually walked on a leash! Granted she stays at the end of it and circles around you. Compared to the inert lump she became when we first saw her, it was great!

Going to put left over quiche in the oven and change laundry.

Paula, Amy, Amiee, Kelly, Jo, Meg of Florida, Liz, Lisa

20 Miles this weekend Ronda, I am cheering for you

Weather was great here today to, but no run for me, DD had practice.

Now were home, and bath time and Laundry.

Happy Hump Day.


dare I ask who has green beer on the menu tomorrow?

 

[cantwaitvaca09]

OH and I need a do over on my goals this week, with this sinus thing, I have not done Jillian at all, Ran Sunday, ellipticall yesterday and thats it.
I have a 10K training run on Saturday with Run Club that I have not been at for months, I hope they still let me run behind them

 

[AKASnowWhite]

Nancy I don't know how you do it twice a year! Omg!!

I am not a very happy camper at the moment. Effing director. Changes his mind constantly and *forgets* to mention it. I'd gotten fed up and said no more changes. Good for me right? Sorta. Turns out he added a dancer ages ago and never told me. I was supposed to make 7 matching dresses, and now it's 8. Problem is, I bought all the fabric for the 7 dresses, and there is no WAY I can a single extra anything out of it. Since I bought all the fabric that they had in the store, I now have to go to a different store and hope that I can find the same fabric. Of course, nothing is "local" to me. 45 minutes to get to the next closest fabric store.

But what am I supposed to do? It's not the 8th girls fault he never updated me. And she's been rehearsing the routines just like everyone else. I can't just tell her too dang bad - no dress for you!

My energizer bunny mom had my back though. She took the director aside and gave him an earful on all this flip-flopping business.

Nancy - 20 on the TM. No, I haven't heard about that! I hated 12. Tell me what conspired to make you do that?! I am excited about my run tomorrow (more weather euphoria). We're supposed to have perfect weather Saturday, as well (38/56).

20 on the TM. Seven of us from the same gym were training for the Mickey. It was late December, and super snowy and icy here. There was no way that running outdoors was even an option. So, we lined up on 7 different TM's. Every 4 miles we moved to a different machine. It really was kind of funny - like some twisted version of a Chinese Firedrill But, we were running next to different people, watching different tv's, getting a different view. Im not going to lie. It still $ucked. But we made the best of it. Mental games. It's all mental games.

Maybe someday soon I'll get back to the gym

 

[Twoboysnmygirl]

Nancy, that sucks. I think the director should give you money to buy all new fabric. Did he even acknowledge that he screwed up here and was putting you out???

Rhonda, good luck on the run! Only in my wildest dreams!
I did walk yesterday, took a walk into town instead of driving, it felt good to move, but walking just isn't the same. Tomorrow I'm running (can't today, homeschool party and a photoshoot this afternoon), I don't care if I hack out a lung while I do it. Maybe it will be like you said and it will actually be easier to breathe while running!

Jo, hope you are all better today!

E, Happy Anniversary a little late!

It's supposed to be 76 here today! We're headed to the park for our anual spring party and I had a last minute call from a woman that is moving, thought she wouldn't be able to get family pics done but now she can, so I'll do that later. Busy day! Is it wrong that part of me would rather just dig in the garden and sit on the deck in the sun???

 

[SeptemberGirl]

Happy St Patrick's Day!!!

What does "with the trolls" mean?

I think Bruno Mars is going to be really really big and have a long career. If he can stay off the drugs. Nancy, I predict he will be on your playlist some day. You have excellent taste in pop music and he is going to be around. Hugely talented. Like Will.i.am. Besides, tell me Just the Way You Are doesn't make you smile!

Nancy is the BEST with mental games!

Ronda - Sunday! WOW! so close, all you have to do is run 20 miles first!

My nails are green and sparkly and they are totally distracting me.

Bruno Mars is a singer, songwriter, and producer. He has a few songs out on the radio now, and that is who Riley's gf is taking him to see.

 

[3DisneyKids]

Just the Way You Are is "their song.". Eye roll. But in a cute way.

Nancy, that sucks. I think the director should give you money to buy all new fabric. Did he even acknowledge that he screwed up here and was putting you out???

I get my actual expenses reimbursed. Not my time or gas. But he totally got the message from my new costume sidekick last night. She told me today what she said to him and he knows he's walking a fine line right now!

Is it wrong that part of me would rather just dig in the garden and sit on the deck in the sun???

Me too. But alas, it's not to be today. I went to the gym , shopped for fabric (which luckily I found!), I just finished lunch and I have a little bit of time to sew before 3 teenage girls come to my kitchen for round 2 of eclair baking.

Perhaps. But I absolutely dispise the Grenade song.

I have nothing green today. Nada. Wishing I could have a green beer, but <sigh> beer and sewing don't really mix well

Just the Way You Are is "their song.". Eye roll. But in a cute way.

oy. that is all.


OH! And I had a Crazy Rose (hmmm...would she be Wild Irish Rose on St. Patty's day? ) moment this morning. And no, I didn't pee myself There was the thinnest woman ever riding a bike at the gym this morning. Thin. Tiny frame, frail. Not sickly, just looking like a stiff breeze would knock her over. Of course I thought "give that woman a funnel cake"

 

[cantwaitvaca09]

I will have to look him up and see if i know his songs.
Nancy u have to make time for green beer.


Jillian before work
Salad for lunch
1 mile walk after lunch
Hope to do more tonight, it helps me keep my head straight
