Terry, I hope you had a peaceful weekend and that your week is starting off great!

 

[sharoncity]

Hey Terry! It's Monday and we are off to a brand new week. How is it looking for you? Did you get a chance to take measurements and such this weekend? I know that is always quite the eye-opener for me . And a motivator too!!

I hope you are feeling well today. Drink that water and come climb back on the wagon with us! It's not so bad!!

TTFN- Sharon

Hi Terry,
I hope your having a good Monday and your back on track with WW's. I'm glad your listening to your body and catching cat naps when you can!

Hello WISHers!
I should really start posting in my journal before I trying to hit all of the journals because I keep running out of time to get all of my posting done!

My week hasn't gotten off as I had hoped. My ds started not feeling well on Saturday night, was up thru-out the night getting sick (poor thing), started with a fever on Sunday and was still running a temp of 100.2 Sunday evening so no school for him today. He was SO disappointed he had to miss his basketball game. He even begged to go and just sit on the bench but I couldn't knowingly allow him to expose everyone to his germs. :/

DD started not feeling well on Sunday. She hasn't had to the stomach virus portion but feels and sounds awful so SHE was home today as well! It is close to their bedtime and I think Jessie is fine to return to school tomorrow - she just has a lot of congestion to battle. Jake still doesn't have his appetite back, so I am not sure about him. We will see how he does overnight, but his temp hasn't broken 100 since last night. 99.8, but not over 100.

I got my injection last night as scheduled and then did my walking. DH did a good job, but I had a lot of burning in my leg while walking. It lasted for the entire hour.

Anyway, the day was spent taking care of the kids, so no Me time today. It is a scheduled day of rest so not getting the workout time wasn't a problem. I just followed my WW from habit but didn't get measurements or weighed or the journal started. I think a food journal really helps me because I can look back at the weeks that work, and the ones that don't. I will be using fitday.com as well, since it is such a great tool!

Well, off to try and catch up on journals! Hopefully I can get to everyone tonight! Thanks to everyone who has visited!!

 

[Princess Michelle]

Terry, I hope your kids get to feeling better soon!

Hi Terry,

Sending some extra, super-duper strength healing for your kids. I hope they start feeling better soon!

Please be sure and take good care of you, too.

Hope you have a great Tuesday!

Hi Terry,

I'm so sorry to hear your kids are sick. Its so hard on a Mom to watch her kids suffer, plus no "Me" time is really tough, too. I hope you don't catch it next!

I'm having trouble keeping up wtih the journals and posting my own, too! Its great fun, but time consuming. I always worry that I missed some one, too.

Take good care of your family and hopefully some "Me" time will be available soon.

Sundie

It's funny how much time it can take to try and get to everyone's journal, isn't it, Sundie? I try to get to everyone, but if someone else posts, while I post, then my list gets out of order and I can easily miss someone! Plus, we are getting a LOT more traffic on the Journal boards these days!

My DS' appetite still isn't back to normal but he doesn't have a tempurature and says he feels fine. He was anxious to get back to school because his turn to celebrate his Half Birthday is upcoming. That and the thought of all of the extra homework that comes home from just 1 missed day was motivation for him.

DD says she still doesn't feel good. She is definitely congested, but no fear and no tummy issues. She is just tired. I am not sure if it is the pre-teen-ness making her tired, or if she is still trying to fight something off. She is typically up and going as soon as her alarm goes off. She was in bed before 9 pm but took a mini-nap in the car on the way to school this morning. I am keeping the phone close by, just in case the school nurse calls.

DH is gone until Thursday night - traveling for work. He has to go to Minneapolis to the corporate headquarters for some meetings. I don't envy him the COLD temps! Since it is just the kids and I, I can make sure they get to bed on time or early, so they are recharged and healthy for our trip to Nashville this weekend.

Off to get more water and see if I can hit a couple more journals before the after school chaos begins! Besides, Michelle might have another Nakies story!

Awsome smilie . I think we will need to "Rate" Michelle's journal if the nakies continue

[geetey]

Oh, I agree!! Now if we could just get a Nakies tag for someone! That would really make my day!!

here is link for the naughty smilie... http://www.wdwinfo.com/sites/family/sssss1.html He is in the top row to the far right.

 

[plutosmyfav]

Hi Terry,

I hope DD is feeling better. Is it close to her TOM? I know that I can be exhausted atTOM. I hope that is all it is.

A nakie tag would be hilarious, and it is getting harder to make it to journals daily.

Take care,\Beth

 

[geetey]

Beth,
A nakie tag would go great with your No Underwear tag!

DD hasn't started her TOM yet, but I am getting ready to start on Wednesday. Maybe her cycle is starting to sync with mine, even though she hasn't started? The emotional part has definitely started!

Come on, Michelle! We need more stories because I found some really good nakie smilies!!

 

[Blueeyes101817]

those smiles are great guys--its cracking me up!...with the journals, i just try going down the list and post on all my "regulars" but then the list gets out of order and i get so confused...
hope your kids are feeling better--and you dont get sick!!

 

[Tera]

Hey Terry - Sorry your kids are feeling bad. Nothing worse than your babies being sick. My oldest DD came home from school not feeling well, of course, their school nurse seems to send them home at the bat of an eye Hope they recover soon

 

[MelanieC]

Hey Terry,

Sorry to hear your kids are sick. I know that is no fun!!

What is a nakie tag???

 

[DoeWDW]

Terry, I've finally gotten caught up on your journal! Sorry I've been gone so long. I see I'm not the only one having trouble keeping up. I could truly turn my DISing into a full-time job.

I hope your kidlets are both feeling all better. This time of year is so tough! Strep throat seems to be going around our school - one of my DD's friends was out over a week with it! I'm hoping and praying it skips our house, because I really don't feel like playing "pass the disease" in our family.

Rest whenever and wherever you can, dear Terry. Turn over some of those household chores to your DH and kids! I think I need to resurrect our chore chart for my 2 teenagers.

Hope you have a wonderful Wednesday!

 

[Strings]

Hi Terry,

I hope the kids are feeling better today.

I'm headed over to Michelle journal with another nakie story. Just thought I'd let you know.

Have a good afternoon,
Beth

I'm headed over to Michelle journal with another nakie story. Just thought I'd let you know.

PAAAAAAAARTY!!

I am heading over!

PS: Melanie,
Over in Michelle's Journal, she has been telling us about encounters with naked people in the locker room at Bally's. Other people have been sharing their 'nakie' stories as well. With so much nakie-ness going around, I thought someone here needs a tag about it!
