Sister Challenge - moved to New Years Resolution in July

[kmp1191]

Good morning gang. what a day yesterday!! I'm exhausted! DD6 woke up w/ fever yesterday so we both stayed home. She slept, I cleaned (and Dis'd)
I moved furniture and swept, then mopped....then mopped again. I was told that after you put in tile you have to give it some time to settle....you can sweep it, but to wait a week and then mop it with vinegar and warm water. It's supposed to take the film of the grout off of it. It worked!! And let me tell you, by the time I was done, I was sweating and tired! Had to move the furniture and rugs and tables and chairs! I told DH that we sure do have alot of tile now!! vaccuming was much quicker!!
DD fever broke around 8 last night, so I think she's gonna go to school today....we'll see what happens when she wakes up. If not, Dh will come home and stay with her today. I wouldn't mind another day off to just sit and relax...but not gonna happen. oh well.
ok...food for yesterday
b-nothing....kinda forgot....
s-nothing....just wasn't hungry
l-small bowl of Ramen noodles....dd likes them when she's sick.
s-5 mini carrots w/ veggie dip
d-1 hot dog w/ bun
water intake- about 64-70 oz...not really sure. it was harder today because i was at home and my bottle wasn't sitting on my desk like at work....gonna have to work on that for the weekend.
resisted-chocolate marshmellow bunnies in the fridge, and other easter goodies.
exercise - 3 mile walk w/ dh (45 min) and 1/2 of Bobfest '06....DD wanted to lay down in my bed and didn't want to watch me workout...who can blame her!!??

I'm gonna be nice at work today....I actually like my co-workers....for the most part, we get along really well. I'm not gonna dwell on the support issue...i get support from where i need it....you guys are like a good bra....support in all the right places!
DH & Family & DIS WISH IS THE PERFECT BRA FOR ME!!
sometimes i even crack myself up!!

have a great day gang and i'll check in....
later taters!

Marie,
Thanks for the laugh this morning! That is too funny!

I hope that your DD is feeling better today.

Have a wonderful Friday!

 

[lovinaz]

Next time you want to be nice and take something to work, just take a dozen donuts and a bag of pork rinds! That way everyone can have a treat...

Wow, you are way better than I am when I have to stay home! It's like a food free-for-all if I am off my routine. I have improved a lot, but weekends are still pretty hard to behave...

You are doing AWESOME with your workouts! I can't wait to see all that hard work pay off on your Monday weigh-in!

 

[kmp1191]

ok...first...dd is still sick....fever broke last night, then came back this morning....100.9.....poor thing...eyes are glassy..headach...coughing....she's home w/ daddy today.

ok...now for the good stuff.....i get to work this morning....my "normal" chipper self....they are passing around a sheet of paper to write down your breakfast order....i say-no thanks, i don't want anything.....very politely.....THREE TIMES I HAD TO SAY NO THANK YOU.....and all three times I was very polite....even though i wanted to stick the sheet of paper in their ear!! (now for the good part.....R orders a bacon,egg & cheese biscuit, w/ hasbrowns and a lg coke!! now that's a good diet!!)
ok....just releasing a litttle steam....i know my "bra gang" can handle it.

marie

 

[lovinaz]

Hmm, I'm no Atkins expert, but I thought it was all protein? Last time I checked, biscuits and hasbrowns counted as carbs...

I will be the best bra buddy I can, but hopefully my level of support is not directly related to my size, because that would be really small...)

 

[mrsschlep]

Marie... I hope dd feels better soon! Great job with passing up breakfast!!! You are doing so great!! Keep it up!

 

[kimwim8]

HAHAHA....Maybe you and I together can add up to an average size?

Marie - you are the best! You always make me laugh

Bra buddy - I'm in. Is there a pledge or something?

I hope DD is feeling better soon, poor little thing.

 

[Jane E.]

Your workouts are really tough! 3 mile walk and 1/2 of Bob's dvd. I've got to catch up. With workouts like that you're going to be dropping the weight in no time. Have a fun weekend!

 

[kmp1191]

HAHAHA....Maybe you and I together can add up to an average size?

Not sure we should get into this conversation....but what is AVERAGE???
LOL

Marie - you are the best! You always make me laugh

Bra buddy - I'm in. Is there a pledge or something?

I hope DD is feeling better soon, poor little thing.

Thanks....glad I could bring some humor to someone's day!!
DD is still running fever...gonna take her to the Dr. in the morning....I'm betting an ear infection....we'll see.

And as for BRA BUDDIES....it kinda coincides with BOBFEST '06.....I think we need to have shirts made up.....

WELCOME TO BOBFEST 2006!!!
BRA-BUDDIES OF THE WISH......UNITE!!!!!

OH OH OH!!!!! get this....everyone in the office got Taco Bell for lunch....EXCEPT ME!!!!

ok....i need a pill!!
Thanks everyone for your thoughts for Cammie (DD6)...I appreciate it.

[lindalinda]

why oh why wont anyone tell me what BOB is? I'm thinking it is the secret weapon you are all using and I havent proven myself enough to be in on it yet.

Anyway, hope your DD is well soon.

I am waiting for the bacon egg and cheese biscuit diet myself. Thats a diet I could really stick too. Oh yeah I remember , I used to be ON that diet!


BTW, my co-workers are pretty good about it now...I mean they still ask...but its kind of like "I'm going for chow linda, you dont want anything do you?" Which is pretty good...no pressure. I did have a co-worker once who was evil. I mean that in the nicest way possible, she was a real sweet, nice friendly woman (who was barbie-doll beautiful just to make it worse). Anyway, I had an office job for a while, and a little cheetos addiction problem. I was trying really hard to break the habit (darn vending machines) and told everyone I was giving them up. She literally hid probably 30 little bags of cheetos in my office. In the drawers, in the closets, in the file cabinets, everywhere. She thought it was hilarious. Well it WAS funny actually but lets face it, she didnt understand how hard it was. I do still have a cheetos jones. Why cant they make healthy cheetos? Yes, I ve had the baked ones and I love them too, better even, but they are almost as bad as the regular ones and I can eat an entire bag! Sorry, I'm rambling now.

Just because Marie is selfish...I will tell you!!!

Bob is Bob from the Biggest Loser (one of the two trainers). There is a Biggest Loser "The Workout" DVD out in stores now. When we do the workout video, we say we've met with, had an affair with, had a rendevous with, did things with Bob.

It's really a GREAT workout, and has many options for every level. You're more than welcome to join us in Bobfest '06 & be an "official" Bob-ette.

And besides getting a good workout....Bob is just fun to watch....

And Linda...that person with the cheetos....that was plain MEAN!

I'm not selfish....I'm just not as quick on the computer as Kim is!! Take a break Kim....I promise you won't miss anything!!! LOL
(i'm picking on you....you know i love ya!!!)
Linda, sorry I didn't get to you sooner....I know I can count on my secretary Kim to take care of any business I miss. I couldn't find The Biggest Loser DVD at the stores here, so I ordered it from Overstock.com for $8.95. Oh, just don't get it mixed up with THE BIGGEST WINNER with Jillian Michaels. She's tougher than Bob....and not nearly as fun to watch....actually kinda scarey if you ask me. Let me know if you find it in the stores....and good luck!!

Hey Marie! Glad your workday seemed to be a bit better today! Way to resist the bad foods today! I wish I could have just a little bit of your spunk sometimes way to tell R off. I think the best thing to do is what you did today and just say no then sit back and chuckle at the "bacon, egg & cheese biscuit diet" knowing that you are on the right path!

Way to go on your exercise also! I can't wait to see how you do on your weigh in Monday! I bet it is Real good!

I'm glad that we have been a good bra for you! You guys are excellent bra buddies to me too! Glad I can give a little bit back!

Hope your dd gets better soon! Have a great weekend!

[goldcupmom]

Marie, if we could just animate your journal we'd make a million and we could hire Bob to personally come 'do' us all!! Just getting the visual made my day!

Hope all is well!

 

[kmp1191]

Quickie update.....Cammie (dd6) has strep throat. She hasn't fun fever since yesterday, but still not her "normal" self. Dr. swabbed her throat....really made her mad...big tears.....then after the diagnoses came time for the shot....made her MADDER and even BIGGER tears!! But she will be better and back to school on Monday. I went yesterday and bought her some new pj's....my mom always did that for us...when we got sick...(more than a day or two) she always got us new jammies....for some reason it always made us feel better. So last night, I put Cammie in the tub...then braided her hair, painted her fingers and toes and put her in new jammies....and today, she's much better!!! See, it really works!!!

Ok...DD is laying down watching Strawberry Shortcake.....DS10 is spending the night at a friends....DH is cleaning the garage....and I'm going to lay out!! Why????
BECAUSE FAT LOOKS BETTER TAN!!!!

later taters and have a great day!!
marie

 

[lovinaz]

Sorry to hear DD has strep! But at least she is on meds and getting better now! My DD6 was so deathly ill the week before Christmas. She had a 102-104.5 temp EVERY DAY for 5 days straight. As soon as the Advil wore off, it would be back. No other symptoms besides being completely glassy-eyed and lethargic. The Dr said it was a virus. I just hate it when they get sick like that!

I need to lay out too. I should, since it is 94 degrees today! I am going to be a total whitie if I don't get out in the sun before we leave for Mexico in 2 weeks! All my cruise tan is already gone...

Great job resisting the work junk food!

 

[kmp1191]

Ok...today was....well...it's a Saturday....

b-1/2 sausage mcgriddle - after dr. visit
s-nothing
l-nothing
s-1 little marshmellow bunny....(like a 2 bite thing)
d-marble slab ice-cream - ultimate cookies & cream...size med...not really that big...honestly....dd wanted something soft so we went for it...had to do it for the kid....she's sick...remember.....
water - 40 oz
exercise - none

gonna go watch a movie and relax now...was up w/ dd again last night....2 nights in a row while she coughed and slept right up against me...(she comes into our bed in the middle of the night when she doesn't feel good.)

later taters

Glad DD is on the mend. Hopefully you can all get some good sleep tonight. I also buy DD's new jammies when they are really sick - makes us all feel better, I think.

The sun would have to come out for me to be able to tan -- "Hello, weather guy, it is spring now. Enough with the rain! "

lovinaz: we had the same virus right before Christmas! DD10 missed the entire last week of school, honor choir performances, field trips, all of it. She was so bummed. Advil wasn't even doing the trick so the ped had us "layering" with tylenol. Of course, DD2 ended up getting it as well, just about the time DD10 was feeling better. It was nasty!

 

[toystoryduo]

I hope your DD is feeling better soon! I remember strep throat and shots as a child. Those were no fun! Sending some healing her way!

I hope you have a great Sunday! Take care!
