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

[AKASnowWhite]

Nancy, I have already told my family that I am goin gto the gym to do my 10 tomorrow, I am going to do a combo for treadmill and track, 10 times around is a mile.

Sounds like a good plan Jo. I'm so envious of the indoor track!

 

[adsrtw]

I hoe this looks ok. Huge delays on phone. I'm planning my kiddos vacation and want to get opinions (I've removed the must dos for us). It's one of those days - hate my job today & and need some happiness.

Chefs de. France - lunch dinner or both? We did lunch last year.
Yak& Yeti
Tony's
Tutto for lunch
Rose &Crown - had dinner, does anybody have lunch experiences?
Kona- breakfast
Cali Grill or Narcoossees?
Boma - dinner
Ohana. - dinner
Brown Derby - lunch or dinner?

Our must do list is - Jiko, Artist Point, crystal palace, cape may, le cellier for lunch, biergarten lunch, teppan edo, via napoli, garden grill and akershus dinner.

LOVE this place. I say dinner since you did lunch.

Yak& Yeti Never been!

Tony's ditto

Tutto for lunch wow, i am lame. Never been here either

Rose &Crown - had dinner, does anybody have lunch experiences? Try it for lunch. I liked it. But I also kind of think the chip stand is just as good for kids.

Kona- breakfast ADORE!!! YES YES YES

Cali Grill or Narcoossees? Cali Grill. for the view. Plus, my kid likes sushi and I think she'd be more captivated by the elevator, atmosphere, etc.

Boma - dinner Again, lame me. Would like to go here!

Ohana. - dinner We LOVE Ohana dinner. It's a good memory for us.

Brown Derby - lunch or dinner? I'm more fond of lunch here than dinner, personally. But it depends on your park touring day.

Our must do list is - Jiko, Artist Point, crystal palace, cape may, le cellier for lunch, biergarten lunch, teppan edo, via napoli, garden grill and akershus dinner.

You have a fab must do list. Your kids hit the lottery with you.

 

[lisaviolet]

Quick on and off.

Paula - you've been on my mind.

Megan - ACTION is everything with men. EVERYTHING.

Like I know.

Ronda - How flippin' jealous am I. BEYOND JEALOUS. We get teased by a good friend about travelling you know WDW, Virginia, WDW, SC, WDW, Virginia blah blah blah. But I'm forever telling him airfare. I don't have the moulah buddy. ONE DAY. Good for you. I can't wait to hear. And see photos - lovely.

OMG. Nancy! THE SNOW STICK. THE SNOW STICK. I love the snow stick. OMG, the snow stick. Yes I can't stop laughing (Erika's MIL gave Kelly a snow measuring stick as a present - the only present). And gym/Erin's house not too bad.....

Erika - So as I'm reading I'm thinking "Karen has a new girlfriend" and then the snow stick. Riley. Holy cow Batman.

Liz -

Jo - Wow I had no idea with your job. I love water any way I can get it. I can't believe how far you've come. It REALLY is amazing. Really. Truly. You must be scaring the crap out of your husband.

Amiee - and this too shall pass. Listen, I did Teppan Edo Christmas Day - funny stories. When are you going again?

Kat - where for art thou? Did you catch my shirt question?

Who else posted today? Hmmm. I have to go.

So to all.

 

[adsrtw]

Thanks Liz! They think we aren't able to handle it financially, but they. Don't know what I've cut out to save for it. Not to mention some side work that I did.
G
Lisa- E persuaded me to try Teppan. I'm so glad we did. We are leaving May 26 and will return June 5 or 6. We are at WDW may 27-june 4

I had Rose & Crown for lunch last year. The experience was good, the food was good, and the service was good, so all in all it's something I would say absolutely too.

I've got 19 days until my trip so I'm getting excited, I may already be developing vacationitis at work.

 

[adsrtw]

Very exciting Rob. My company is going through turmoil right now and it is a miserable place to be. On top of that, a few of my employees are having issues that I have to address. I have my eyes on the future.

Thank you Lisa, and the funnly about my DH, is he is not over weight at all, however, he got a new job in September, (still a cop) but he is able to eat out ALOT, well now he is working out county colories and when I told him I was going to the gym to do 10 miles he's like OK, I will keep the kids.
I told him to stay on his toes or I might start to like Firemen instead.

I can sympathize with you about the company turmoil thing. There is so much reorganizing going on it's insane. So being able to have the eye on a bright spot really helps. I end up planning the trip 6-8 times from when we decide to go and when we actually go, just to keep my mind on nice things.

 

[adsrtw]

Jo - I'm game for any treats. Oh I might need to bring some local goodies with me.

 

[amykab]

Trying to catch up! You all have been busy!!

Jo--You are going to be in great shape for the half! You are hitting 10 miles at the perfect time!

Liz--I am having some Vera love over your new purse. You'll have to let us know how it works out for your trip!

Meg--That is fantastic news on the new job. and the boyfriend.

E-- There is no way in that I would ever survive 8 miles in those conditions. That water park hotel sounds like so much fun. I've heard of them but of course they don't have any in FL. I believe blizzard beach was closed 2 days this week due to the freaking cold weather here.

Rob--Thanks for sharing with us!

EE-- Somehow I totally missed you were doing a May Disney trip. So fun.

Lisa, Kat,Paula,Nancy

So my miles are done for today. and core. It almost didn't get done because I about talked myself out of it. I was so sleepy. Which is probably my fault for lounging around all morning reading my kindle. But I came here and read the thread and all of you totally motivated me to get on the TM !!
And I am down 1.5 pounds! I'll take it since while I have been on track with my exercise, I have not been able to day no to beer. or wine. or cheese as much as I should have this week.

Since I keep forgetting to charge the baby monitor, I periodically get off the TM to check on J Cash in his crib. (I figure it's like a potty stop during the race). This is how I found him.

 

[adsrtw]

Cute! I jumped on free dining and upgraded to DxDP. If we go next year, it will be a short trip.

Amy, Kat, Nancy, Paula, EE, Ronda, Rob, Jo, Everyone - Hi!

 

[SeptemberGirl]

Thanks Liz! They think we aren't able to handle it financially, but they. Don't know what I've cut out to save for it. Not to mention some side work that I did.

You know where my mind goes with that last comment, right?

I've got 19 days until my trip so I'm getting excited, I may already be developing vacationitis at work.

Lisa, can you force Rob to reveal all this trip plans? Pretty please?

Liz--I am having some Vera love over your new purse. You'll have to let us know how it works out for your trip!

I will make N take a picture! He will think I am crazy and that is okay!

So adorable! And really, if I ever had kids again, I'd do it like you. Me, I gained a ton, never exercised, and she was 3 before I lost the baby weight! You, you run a half right away! Goddess Crown!

Hi Everyone!
I would love a shirt! Question - how does one go about purchasing it?

You can order the drinking one directly, and the others through me!

Liz - I totally understand you not wanting to put details online, and I am sorry if I pressured you!

You totally didn't, no worries!

I am debating the TM, or just a DVD. See, I think I just agreed to go out to dinner with the inlaws, so I don't want to have to shower again. Lazy, I know!

Maybe I will do a quick DVD and then pack!!!!

 

[adsrtw]

Omg! I walked right into that Liz.

Hi Kelly!

 

[cantwaitvaca09]

Any he is so cute and sleeping so peacefully.

Workout umm whats that??

I worked from home today to stay home with Alexa. Sad to say, I am just now getting in the shower HA HA HA.

But I will be at the gym at 6AM!

 

[Ronda93]

Jo - keep him on his toes ; )

Lisa - This is going to be an adventure! I'm starting Coffee Break French. My foreign language skills are limited to enough Spanish to order beer and find the bathroom. Important skills, to be sure.

Amy - that hands-up-full-on sleep is so sweet. He's a doll.

Looking forward to 22* tomorrow morning and running OUTSIDE. Now I'm off to scour the house for something to take pictures of.... I've got some plush Mickeys....

Ronda

 

[amykab]

Can you believe that in 6 weeks from now all of us doing the princess half will either be at WDW or packing to be there on Saturday? I can't believe it is coming up so fast and that an entire year has passed since the last one. OMG.

 

[AKASnowWhite]

I've got 19 days until my trip so I'm getting excited, I may already be developing vacationitis at work.

I'm approaching vacationitis myself, and I have much longer than 19 days!

I feel so badly though -It looks like I'm going to be missing one of Becca's concerts whilst I'm away.

I start on Tuesday when I get my running shoes - excited!

so exciting!

Maybe I will do a quick DVD and then pack!!!!

Pack? Are we going somewhere

warm. sunny. such a fabulous thought right about now

But I will be at the gym at 6AM!

me too. Well, 6am YOUR time, not mine

My foreign language skills are limited to enough Spanish to order beer and find the bathroom. Important skills, to be sure.

Really important! In fact, you might not need too much more


I just got in from a potluck dinner. Yikes. Too much good food. I tried to make decent choices - like the amazing spinach & fresh apple salad. (undressed even! the salad. not me. duh.) I'm not even attempting to track it. whatever. It's one evening - it won't kill me, right Lisa?

 

[AKASnowWhite]

Amy - I don't know what happened, I lost your post somewhere. JCash is sooooo sweet! That is such a great picture!!! Is lil D lovin' being a big sister still or has the novelty worn off?
