In Search of My Body vol.9 - I Get By With A Little Help From My Friends

[adsrtw]

Great neighbor! Too funny!

 

[cantwaitvaca09]

Wait. WHAT? McDreamy was 20 minutes from your house? MCDREAMY!! Sorry, I passed out a little then
I would LOVE McDreamy to be that close to my house!

I thought would you like to know he drove on the same road I do


Nancy, I am so off with you!
No sitter for tomorrow, so no running group. Just me and the treadmill in the basement

 

[AKASnowWhite]

We did! I *MADE* them go. We ate dinner at a really, really good steak house. Yumm.

Did you do the boat ride? Such a touristy thing to do, I know - but we loved it!

When I got almost to my house on the final lap the lady across from my house a couple of doors down came flying out her front door and started yelling at me to pick up that bottle I threw in the yard across the way.

That is hilarious! And awesome! Gotta love that neighbor!

No sitter for tomorrow, so no running group. Just me and the treadmill in the basement

Can you do a "virtual" run? Where you do the same thing as they are at basically the same time?




I've got Patti LaBelle in my head today.
I'm feeling good from my head to my shoes. Know where I'm goin' and I know what to do. I've tidied up my point of view, I've got a new attitude

yeah. I reached my point of disgust yesterday. So far off with food, water, alcohol, exercise and sleep. Absolutely everything was out of whack. I needed a complete system re-boot So today, Patti and I are gettin' it done

Hello! My name is Push Over. <The crowd says Hi, Push Over!>

I bet you are wondering what that was about, lol. I guess I should tell you before I get called out on it. We recieved our Mickey Mail today and the kids are beyond excited. Well, a moment later, Taylor looked up at me in her sweetest voice and said she wished she could get her hair done again like last year. Really?!? You decide this AFTER I asked 2 months ago? We decided on the Pirates League instead as a family then. Agh!

Watching her get made up last year, was so emotional for me. The FGM's were wonderful and it made a great birthday present. I think many of the CM's really have a gift for their jobs. It's absolutely true at BBB. So, I called. Just the phone with the call center (she was wonderful by the way). I asked if she could search for the day that we have breakfast with Cindy, fully expecting rejection. She comes back on the line very excited. She snagged an 8:10 ressie at BBB and Cindy's Table is at 9:20. I am so excited. Now I just need to think of something as equal in coolness for Ryan. I had planned to do something special for each of them (pricey souvie, or so), so this will take the place of the souvie for her. Actually, now that I am thinking about it, he loves AK and I can't stand it. I might give him an extra morning there and a souvie.

Enough of that, I am at football practice with Ryan. I had a wonderful mid-day jog with a friend at work today (we hit the parking garage again). Tomorrow is back to school hair cuts for the kids and a touch up for me. I hope everybody has a great evening!

 

[AKASnowWhite]

wowza. Incredibly quiet here today!

Hello! My name is Push Over. <The crowd says Hi, Push Over!>

Hi Push Over OMG. That lil Princess is going to be SO excited!


Paula - bike? I hope?

 

[goofyfan-12]

I have my new bike!!!! Spent about three hours at the shop getting schooled on it. Spent most of the time on the trainer just practicing clipping in and out. Spent a little time on the gearing and then it was off to the parking lot for a few laps. I managed not to fall over (whoo hoo!) so I think I am ready for tomorrow's ride.

It was quiet around here today. Hope everyone is doing well. I am very happy that this week is over since my work week sucked royally. But, it is over and next week starts a new one. Let the optimism flow....

Oh and I put my order in for vodka the next time we do shots. I much prefer vodka to tequila or whiskey.

Nancy / Patti - you go girl! Send some of that new attitude over my way would you?

Jo - um you were on the same road as McDreamy and yet we have no pictures. Just sayin'

Kelly - hope you didn't hit your head when you 'passed out'

Disneyboundf16743 - (forgive me I don't remember your name) Your neighbor sounds cute in that she is looking out for you.

EE - how is the pushover doing?

Kat - glad you got a chance to see some of the touristy part of San Antonio. Safe travels - it will be nice to be home again, I'm sure.

Hi to everyone else. I am off to bed. 6:00AM comes early and it is wheels up by 7:30. I'll check in after the ride.

 

[adsrtw]

I'm a little sore from my fall. But she is very excited!

 

[cantwaitvaca09]

Hi All, Can't Sleep

EE, I would so do the same thing, I surprised Alexa last year on her birthday day with her hair do at BBB (I did bring a new Cindy dress/shoes from home)
And I would so do it again. Worth every penny just to see how happy she was. Your not a pushover at all, just a great Mom!

Paula, How many miles today, Yay for the new bike, can't wait to here how it felt!!

Kat, did you get home yet?? Hope all is well

So Nancy, did you and Patti drink last night?

Lisa, Kelly, Ronda, Erika, Meg, Happy WEEKEND!!



Oh, I got a sitter, I got a sitter!!!! Run Club 4 mile run for me today YAY
(I'm a little nervous, don't tell anyone)

I have been in a bit of a funk lately, I don't know if its because of the birthday, sitter issues I have had during the week, or knowing school for both girls start soon, but I am an emotional mess. DH's says I just need a good run/walk to clear my head. I hope so. Hormones Suck!:

 

[HockeyKat]

On the plane in San Antonio. Scored exit row window and am practicing my best don't take the middle seat glare...

 

[adsrtw]

Safe travels Kat. Define intervention woke me up. Its 63 and I am warming up for a jog.

 

[cantwaitvaca09]

Kat, hope your dirty look worked out. Safe Travel Home!

EE, I am ready for my job, just waiting on the sitter.

 

[adsrtw]

I have a 15.2 pace today. Not what I would like, but I will take it. I'm learning how to lengthen my stride. Taking a break to bird watch.

 

[adsrtw]

Glad you got a sitter Jo! I can relate.

 

[AKASnowWhite]

So Nancy, did you and Patti drink last night?

just a little. Really. So glad you found a sitter! Can't wait to hear how run club went today!

Paula -yay for the bike! Please tell me all about your ride. Did you notice the difference with the new bike? Did your shoes scare the bejezzus outta you?

Kat- yay for going home. (crossing fingers that you get an empty seat next to you)

EE- awesome on the jog. Even if the pace isn't quite where you want it right now, no worries! That will come back. I promise.

 

[adsrtw]

I hope so Nancy!

I jogged with gauze and it was kind of uncomfortable (got itchy). I'm going to try it without tomorrow. Up next is color and cut for me, then school haircuts for the kids.

 

[cantwaitvaca09]

EE, enjoy the hair do.
your time will bet better.

Run Clun was great, I did 3.5 miles in 49 min. I did not get the 4 cuz I was late. It was hard, I ran more than walked. (trying to keep up)
It was a hard run, I was glad when I was done but I am ready to try a small run tomorrow around my subdivision.

 

[adsrtw]

I have really cool multi-colored hair again. No roots! Kids got their back to school doos too. After that, we did some clothes shopping. I'm ready to drop, but I am looking forward to shower time.

 

[adsrtw]

I'm doing the happy dance. We had a very late lunch so that means late dinner. My very picky daughter asked me to make an omelet with - get this - mushrooms and ham. I snuck in some mushrooms while we were in Indy and I am guessing that she is still enjoying them!! Huge step!

 

[cantwaitvaca09]

Wow, EE, Alexa would never even touch a mushroom. So that is great that she asked for them!

Happy Sunday All,
I think I am going to try a small run this morning.
