Kim's maintenance rollercoaster. Wanna ride along? (all are welcome)

GREAT job today KIM!!!!

Awesome effort in your full 20 run...running any distance consistently, IMO, is a huge accomplishment. Proud of you!!!

 

[corinnak]

I did! Definitely not an easy run. Had to talk myself into running after about 5 minutes. I wasn't hurting, but my legs were just tired. But I did it - I finished 20 minutes straight running. So I'm proud of that.

Kim, this is just so AWESOME! Way to muscle through that last 15 minutes. It's so great to see you powering your way through C25K.

Oh, and by the way, you're not the "corny mom," you're the AWESOME mom. I think it matters to kids when you take that much interest in the things they enjoy. It sounds like they really loved seeing that movie. My kids are not HM fans, so I suppose we are going to pass on the 3D movie. It's really nice that they have put that 3D movie out there - she's sooo popular right now, it seems like there can't be enough concert tickets for everyone.

Yay Kim!!!! Awesome Job on your run!!! I am so proud of you!

Better woman than me! You had a salad, I had Schlotzsky's.

Keep it up girl!!!

[corinnak]

Oh gosh, Schlotzsky's! We used to have those here, but they all closed and went away. On the other hand, it is a lot easier for me to pass them up now.

Hi Kim,

I wanted to thank you for your support. My WISH sisters are an amazing group, and I am blessed to have you in my life.

Great job on the run. You are getting back into the swing of things, and I imagine you can't wait for the Spring weather to come too. Finish that off with a salad, and

My DD told me that she was glad none of her friends were at the HM movie. I totally embarassed her. Hey, it's my job!

Take care,
Beth

What in the world is Schlotzsky's???

Yes, I had that salad for lunch, but I was STARVING after about 2 hours!! Went right from work to get my hair cut/colored then to my nephew's bday party - so dinner was chocolate cake. Guess I'm not so deserving of the smilie anymore, huh?

I love the salads from Outback. I only get lettuce, cheese, croutons and cinnamon pecans, then ranch...Obviosly...not the healthiest salad. Especially if you have it with the bread and butter...yum!

Ok.. Sclotzskys has yummy sandwiches. Not too healthy though. I think the one had would be equal to 12.5 weight watchers points.

So...do you have a new hair style? I think my hair is falling out! I want to get some color too, but I normally wait until closer to spring. My hair is so thin and fine and I've alway permed it to give it more body...Now it's falling out and clogging the drain. Maybe I need to lay off the chemicals! If you have a new style...You know we expect a picture!!!

Don't feel bad about the cake...I had a snickers!

Later!

[kimwim8]

Hey Stacey. Yes, I have a new "do". I'll probably take a pic of me & DH before our dinner dance thingy tomorrow night. My hair ended up darker and shorter than I was picturing, but it's not bad.

mmmmmmmmmmmmm Don't get me started on the Outback.

I had major problems with my hair falling out while I was following the nutritionist's plan. Lack of fat basically. When I notice it happening now, I eat more oil products - cook with oil, lite italian dressing - stuff like that. It always works. There is also a hair/nail vitamin you can take that helped me before, it's called biotin. You should be able to get that at any drugstore or even supermarket.

Unfortunately we got snow and ice last night, so I'm not running outside today. Actually I'm not running at all today b/c I get my picture taken at 1pm for that award I won...and I don't want to be all red-faced.

I'll run tomorrow instead.

Hope your picture turns out well.

Have fun at the dance.

Hey Kim,

Hope you have a great weekend!

 

[kimwim8]

Hey guys. I forgot to take a pic of DH and I before the party. Friday afternoon turned into a nightmare. Got an email about 5 minutes before I was leaving work saying that gmom has gone way downhill in the last week and we basically need to get to see her right away. That really put a damper on my mood for Friday night, so it wasn't the fun, exciting night out as originally planned.

I went to see her Saturday morning and it was awful. Just horrible. She's not conscious anymore (they have her on a pain patch b/c she's refusing any meds) and she's swelling up. So basically it's a matter of hours/days now.

So, no running, no eating good, no nothing. I am just barely getting through the day without bawling the whole time.

I'll keep in touch and update you.

 

[postesf]

Kim...I'm so sorry to hear that!

Stacie

 

[AmyBeth68]

Oh no Kim .

I'm so sorry to hear about your grandma. HUGS to your entire family. I know how difficult this can be .

Please let us know how you are doing when you get a moment.

 

[traceycooper]

Kim
i'm so sorry,
Take care

 

[corinnak]

Kim, I'm so sorry. That is never an easy phone call to get, and it is so hard to see a loved one in that state. My heart goes out to you, your kids and your entire family at this time, and I will pray for a peaceful transition for your grandmother. Take good care at this difficult time.

 

[kimwim8]

Thanks guys. Gmom's still holding on, tho some have said she appears to be in a coma. Just waiting it out.

I start jury duty today (of all weeks to have to go) for the first time. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I don't get picked, just in case this is grandmom's week.

Thanks again for hangin' in. I'll be back to myself soon. I promise.

 

[toystoryduo]

Kim,

I'm so sorry to hear about your grandma, sweetie. We will be keeping her and your family in our thoughts and prayers.
