...My name is Karen Taylor and I'm a shockingly bad mama...

Actually not so bad, after all!!!

I predict 3 loads of washing/ironing and we'll be done!!! Nothing horrid was lurking after all and there's no sports gear to deal with...

Have a great day MMs...

 

[CustardTart]

...I unburied my exercise machine but have yet to use it. I'll shoot for 20 minutes (starting small) tonight, we'll see how that goes...

I've just received my new Tony Little Rock n Roll stepper!!!

I've become a little bored of walking and jogging so wanted something small I could use during the day and this fitted the bill! Much smoother than the usual stepper - I like it!

I think Kaz may be asleep now, so maybe someone here knows if she's bringing her family to DL in August. If so, and if Brenda has Ryan, Debbie has Aaron, and Nan has Will and Molly, I'd like to bring Jesse.

Chad will be in Rome for the summer, at St. John's Rome campus studying International Peacekeeping, so he won't be able to come. I'm playing with the idea of joining you.

Hey maybe we can meet up with Chad when we're there this June...I think we're in Rome June 17th thru 19th or 20th. At least take him to dinner or something...

sounds cool.....i added swimming/water aerobics to my morning routine this year....needed a 'boost'...

I hope this summer meet can work out. DS & I could be in Anaheim that wkend 16th-17th...but would need to come back Sunday night...he starts school that week....& it's DH's BD....Aisling SOOOO hoping you & Jesse can make it!

My DH is a big Pilates fan and keeps trying to persuade me to add a weekly session to the mix - always good to keep your body guessing so maybe I should. I am really loving this new stepper tho' - it's v smooth and quiet so no problem to watch TV and exercise at the same time...

Nan, if you haven't been over to my MySpace yet you should go...

I just tweaked my page...all the videos on the right are pretty much how I spent my year...it was a good year~

I am definatly in for a trip to So. Cal. and I'm sure that Aaron would love to join us. I'm not sure of his school schedule for next year but if he starts school that week I would probably leave him home.

Aisling, you and Jesse are more then welcome to start your trip in No. Cal. and we could do a few things before heading down South.

Good morning everyone!

Aisling, I will be in Cali with DH and Samuel! We arrive in LAX on August 9th, set sail on the Magic August 10th and return on August 17th. We transfer to DLH before leaving for London on August 23rd. I don't know if those dates will work for you, but would be lovely to meet ya!

Just a thought, but I'd be inclined to send my DH and DS off to do their own thing so us laydeez could lunch!!! After a week of all that testosterone, I'd probably need to exert some girl power...

Sounds lovely. If Paul is with us, he'd run the kids to the park to play while we have some girl time.

Based on Brenda's travel dates looks like the only day we can all in in the same place is 8/17. Kaz, will you be too tired for us to mob you the day your return from the cruise?

I suspect we'll have our first day on 8/25, so that week of 8/16-8/20?? will be good for us. We just have a race on 8/24, so we'll have to be home early enough to load up for that.

I am definatly in for a trip to So. Cal. and I'll do my best to save vacation time for that week. If the kids are included, I'm sure that Aaron would love to join us.

Aisling, you and Jesse are more then welcome to start your trip in No. Cal. and we could do a few things before heading down South.

Of course, we'd love to have you see us. I tend not to think of San Jose as a great place to visit but the surrounding cities have much to see...if you'd like we don't have an extra bedroom, but a couch and air matress, or perhaps the local hotel would be more comfortable . I can set ya up there no problem.

Count me in!!!!! We're bound to disembark early and we'll head straight over to DLH tp drop our bags. I'll leave the boys to do their own thing and get myself to any Los Angeles location you suggest!

I totally missed the part about John(grim) damaging his camera Is it repairable?

Probably, but I hate to put money into an 'obsolete' camera (2 generations behind already). Might just bite the bullet and get a 40D.

I did my homework before buying mine and am *very* happy with it.

It's got the ability without unecessary bells and whistles the 40Dx has (more megapixels I think.) It's a comfortable carrying weight. The clarity is perfect and the additional telephoto lens I got in the amazon package made her perfect for me.

I mentioned this already but y'all may have missed it...Rose already picked our weeks for NC and it's 8/9 to 8/23. 2009 is still my target date for a trip back out to Cali.

this So. Cali trip in Aug sounds very promising....If Ry & I need to come home sunday 17th - don't let us interfere with any continuation of plans....if we do DL Saturday & the boys do whatever Sunday while us "girls" go play...that works for me for sure....then the boy & I can head out whenever we need to....

Tigg....so sorry you won't make this one....but hey we'll be together again in less than a year...than you'll be out in '09 & i'm still thinking about a trip back to NYC in '10 (maybe kaz will meet us all there)!!!!
