Looking For Control Freaks & Worry Warts - We're still here!

[karajeboo]

Nothing exciting to report on my "end." But I'm hoping for some action before I go to weigh in today. How pathetic am I???

I'm chugging water like crazy then I'll stop about an hour or so before I go.

Looks like it's gonna be a chilly weekend here. I was hoping to get some planting done, but I need to wait a couple weeks just to be sure we're done with the overnight freezes - we have a freeze warning tonight and all my lilies are already in bloom! I hate to go out and cover them, but this time I will need to or they'll be gone for the season.

Maybe I'll paint this weekend or something. I just hate winter weekends (unless there's football on, and that's all done now).

hey that is so cute where is it from? I need a new one before the trip and was hoping to pick one up that would be perfect.

I had a suit like that and loved it! Seriously, it had the "tennis dress" look. And it did cover my tummy nicely.

I hold the majority of my weight in my tummy. My BF just called and said she thought it would be a toss up, but that it would probably make me look about 6 months pregnant. Not quite the look I am going for. I do know if I put on an empire waisted shirt, that is sorta what happens - so I guess the same would happen here.

I do really like that suit though.

Lane Bryant. I have to shop the "special girl" stores.

Unless you're 6 ft tall and 100 lb, I think all empire waisted shirts make one look pregnant. I wear them all the time though and I just DARE soemone to make that comment!

But I felt totally comfortable in that suit I had - I think I got mine at Dillards.

Maybe I'll just order it and see when it comes in. I REALLY like it. And it looks like with that high chest, I can get away with it without floatation devices popping out.

Jillian...

10 DAYS!

A day away from getting into the singles, baby!

I thought it was cute and cheap and they could get it to me soon. I never swim during the summer just never seem to have the time.

Tell me what you think!

I LOVE it! Very cute! And a GREAT price!

Jillian - love it! It looks so comfy, I hate snug suits.... And that's almost all of them!

 

[soontobewed07]

I hate snug suits too I always have. I fell upon this one by accident and the price was right and free shipping!

I just finished printing my t shirts now to iron on the transfers!

 

[soontobewed07]

I know we had the DISigners make a CFWW LGMH does anyone have it saved or know where it is? I want to make it into a luggage tag to attach to my Day bag.

If you have time, I need a crash course in that. I have my iron ons, but the one time I tried it - it was not pretty!

I scorched the shirt - and managed somehow to melt part of the iron on picture. I followed the directions - I guess maybe my iron was too hot.

Burnt cloth, melted picture - yep, maybe too hot.

I'm spending the night with my BF so we can make things tonight - we're calling it ScrapTherapy.

I'm making the autograph books tonight for the kids. I've done the covers (nice I must say) but I need to know how many pages should I put in them?

Would 20 pages each be enough - or would you do more? I'm using cardstock, so I don't want it to get too heavy.

I'm going to take them to Kinkos and have them spiral bound so they'll open up easier - or at least that is what I think I'm doing.

Ally's teacher just emailed me and asked me for suggestions for their first trip to Magic Kingdom with their almost 2 year old. She's gonna regret ever asking me!!!

Down another 1 lb this week. Our trainer thinks I can do it. He said 1st and 2nd place are very erratic and he doesn't think they can hang on....

We were talking about going to AK for the day tomorrow. Then Jeff forgot that we're going in 2 weeks so now he's not sure. But Ally just came home with good behavior report, 100% on her reading test today, 100% on her spelling test today, and 100% on a science worksheet today. So I'm going to push for the day trip. I think some positive reinforcement may be what she needs. And I can always use a little Disney!

 

[UsNew2Disney2008]

Kara - good on the weight loss!

I think you are right - you MUST reward her and see how that goes! That is a good job for Ms. Ally! Tell her your CIF is proud of her!

 

[karajeboo]

Instead of Disney - cause it's gonna be chilly tomorrow, and we ARE going in two weeks.... we're gonna do dinner and get the HSM3 dvd for her. She's been asking all week for it. Debbie, how quick can you get here for the "premiere?" I'll make popcorn and XFusion drinks!!!!

 

[karajeboo]

I did it. I booked the bday party at Sweet and Sassy. I'll tell her about the party but the limo is a surprise. I'm soooo excited! And it looks like her friend Caroline (from SC) will be passing through town on her way to Disney so that will be a DOUBLE surprise for her!

Oh, I'm sure she'll probably be more excited by that... maybe even more excited than Debbie!

Well - I think that will have to blow her socks off! Good going!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Yeah, right! My healthy treat would be the Dole Whip b/c of the pineapple! I"ll tell ya what - in NOrway, there are also some sweet pretzels that look awesome. Oh, and a regular pretzel in Germany. Tammie is right about the Mickey ice cream bar or ice cream sandwich. And check out the bakery in France. Too much to mention there!

OK, 3 doses and still nothing from the cleanse. Jeff said I'll be the first person to do it and it will stop me up!

Drink more water?? Oh, and we Norweigans know how to eat!

Well all the jokes about "crappy" day that Kara was going to have left me with the kids clogging the toliet again. I was able to get it to work last night, but I sware I think they stuffed something like a sock in there.

I guess I need to get the plumber in ---- again.

Brings back memories - My boys used to stuff GI Joes down there -on more than once occasion we had a plumber in at night to actually remove the toilet!

Can't we all use a little Disney? I'm glad Ally is doing so well!

Jillian and Lorrie - Cute Suits!!!! I really like the tennis dress one - more casual.

Well, I'm getting ready for another party tonight - I have my pants in the wash, so I'd better go get them in the dryer - I'll check in tomorrow - have a great weekend everyone!
