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

OMG Lisa! HAVE A BLAST!!! Mums the word, you deserve it! I would LOVE to go to WDW by myself and just do whatever I wanted. 2013 will be my year for that! :thumbsup2
 
We're in the final stages of preparations for Hurrican Irene. Animals are moved to higher, drier ground, patio furniture and pool accessories are in the basement, gas cans are full, propane for grill, just need one last errand- more booze :laughing:

You have your priorities straight Nancy! :lmao: I hope it's not too bad and you guys don't get any damage!
 
Hi Everyone!

Kelly- If you saw where Stephen King was from you'd understand why he writes the way he does. I've been by his house and it could be in one of his books. My Dad and sister are Stephen King fanatics. The Green Mile is the only book of his I could handle.

I imagine him to live in a spooky old house in a small town - just like his books!

I started reading his books at a scarily young age really. When my mum caught me sneak-reading Virginia Andrews books (:eek:) at around 12 years old I think they just realised that there was no point 'censoring' what I read, because I would find the books anyway - so I was allowed to ready pretty much anything (within reason!!), as long as one of my parents had read it first and they would warn me what it was about! Sounds very VERY odd now, but it worked at the time! I read IT when I was 14 (I think!) and didn't pick up another Stephen King book till I was in my 20's :rotfl2:

Off to baby Katland (PIT) right now. To fly. Ummm, I'm going to WDW. BCV. A week. I didn't tell ANYONE because I'm finding some attitude :lmao: with my timeshare and I don't/didn't want it on facebook because of that. My father - while I was trying to be positive with his Florida for the winter chances - actually asked me if I'm selling drugs to get to Florida even though he knows about DVC. :rotfl2: It was funny but kind of serious. ;) ;) So not at lot of happy that you fulfilled a dream of ten years of waiting to buy DVC. Even though I've had family members many of time. So no sharing of my own trips for moi right now.

So I'll catch you all on the other side.

Have fun Lisa! :cool1:

:scared1: I have to ask - where are the animals? Im pretty tired at the minute and I read it that you had put them on the patio furniture, which can't be right! :lmao:

EAST COASTERS - Stay Safe!! :grouphug:
 

Hey ladies. On a car ride to see Kenny Chesney AGAIN. It seems no one wants to go in the rain so we got tickets cheap. I'm wearing a bathing suit under my clothes and I plan on just enjoying this.

Guess I'm welcoming in Irene with Kenny Chesney! Stay safe everyone.

:laughing: That did read odd, didn't it! They are all in the barn - it's just that in the summer time we typically have the animals spread out over several pasture areas, each with lean-to style sheds for shade and protection from "normal" rains. We had to bring the goats all back in to the main barn to keep everyone out of the wind and epic rains that we are expecting here.

And speaking of the hurricane, my daughter is getting just a teensy bit hostile :laughing: I think she's ready to punch the weatherman right in the face. She is SO tired of all the talk about the storm.

Lisa, can I have some of what your selling :lmao::lmao::lmao:

Have a great time at WDW!!!!!!!! :wizard:
 
All of you on the East, stay safe, I hope its not to bad for you.

I am still benched with this shin splint. And it sucks, I was getting in realy good miles last week and the scales was showing it.
 
Hope you have a great time Lisa. Mum's the word.

Nancy - are you high and dry? Give us a check in.

Paula - don't know if you're reading, but would love to hear more about the capitol roof this past weekend.

We spent a beautiful weekend with my folks. They have a lake house and we met them Friday afternoon. Jumped right in the water. Stretch's life jacket works, he wasn't really comfortable in the water though. Lots of shaking and whining. We shopped with my mom and ate really, really well.

Four miles this morning. It was 66 degrees! Felt great!

Kat - great job on the half. Did you have any foot trouble in the rain?

Well, we survived Irene relatively unscathed. We lost power from 8:00 yesterday morning until about 4:00 this morning. We have a generator, so we were able to keep the fridge & freezer cold and have a little light as well.

Animals are fine - as a matter of fact our 3 little (and they are still little!) beef cows would not go into their barn and were out grazing in the middle of the whipping winds and driving rain BY CHOICE! Silly cows! The goats of course were scared senseless and were huddled in the barn even after the sun came out. :laughing:

Today it's beautiful and sunny and just glorious! Great day to be outside.

I was supposed to go back to work today, but am starting tomorrow instead. Ugh. "work". As much as I adore my job, I don't adore the constant schedule chaos that comes with it.:upsidedow
 
It's good goats are cute and don't have to get by on their wits. I remember little gets in the way of grazing beef. Glad you came through okay.

Things are slowly returning to normal here in the aftermath of Irene. Our electricity came back on Monday morning, and our cable which as been in & out since then is hopefully back for keeps! The kids in town started school today (they were supposed to start yesterday), and tomorrow we take Nate to college. By next week I'll have started to figure out a new routine and with a bit of luck and a whole lot of planning I expect to get myself back on track!

Hope everyone is well :flower3:
 
Glad things are getting back to normal Nancy! I hope everything goes well tomorrow...are there tears with college just like Kindergarten? I'm thinking so! :hug:

Jo, hope the shin splints are better!

Still having battle-of-the-wart(s) here! I've been doing UBWO and some LBWO and then running a mile before it hurts too much. I wish I could do more, but at least I can run a little bit and don't have to start ALL over when these things are finally gone.

EE, Happy Bday to Ryan!! :goodvibes
 
OMG yes Karen. I cried every day for a month when Seth left! :rolleyes1

btw - wearing my team goddess shirt to the gym this morning. I need the extra inspiration :thumbsup2
 
Hi Ladies!!!

Having a bit of a break through on body issue stuff. Just wanted to pop in, catch up, and read up on your lives.

xoxo
 
Heading to Long Island tomorrow to take Nate to school. I make no promises not to cry :rolleyes1
 
Oh my word, y'all. Are not posting anymore? :-) Come back! Come back! I know, who am I to talk?

Okay, so I am thinking of not dieting anymore. Not going crazy and becoming a shut in, but off the cycle of on and off. know what I mean? Thoughts?
