Toystoryduo's Journal....Moving Forward From Here

[toystoryduo]

Thanks ladies.

It's been a busy day here. I've gotten several things done and now I'm ready to chill out and enjoy the evening.

My DH is out of town at a meeting so it's just the girls and I tonight. We'll probably watch a movie or something.

Weigh-in is tomorrow. Considering how much fast food I have eaten this week, I think I'll end up seeing a gain on the scale. There's always next week, right?

Hope everyone has a nice evening!

Tracy, a girls only movie night sounds very nice, what did you end up watching?

There's always next week is the truth! And who knows you may end up doig better than you thought.

How is your grandma? I hope she's doing well and feeling better after her surgery!

Girls only night! DD was asking for one last night. She said "doesn't Dad have to be somewheres tonight?"

How's grandma? yes, there is always next week, but I'll bet you are okay this week.

 

[goldcupmom]

Sounds like you had a wonderful anniversary! I'm glad!

How was girl's night?

Hope WI went passably well, but even if it didn't, in the scheme of things, it is just one WI. You know you are doing so much better!

Have a great weekend!

Thanks ladies.

We went to visit grandma today. She just found out that a minor infection has set in and that she will be in the hospital a few extra days. She is not thrilled about that as she has been there for over 2 weeks now. She looks good. She's just tired and in pain right now. Your good thoughts and prayers are very much appreciated!

Lots of thunderstorms here today...More on the way.

We are officially 50 days away from our WDW trip! I am so looking forward to this vacation. This summer has not been as relaxing as I thought it would be. I am looking forward to rest, relaxation, food, and soaking in the Disney magic.

Not much going on tomorrow...Church, some grocery shopping, and maybe a planning session with my DH. August is going to be a busy month and I'm hoping we can sit down and get some things on the calendar before the busyness takes over.

Hope everyone has a nice Sunday!

Prayers said for Grandma. I hope she gets to go home soon.

Be safe with the storms. Thankfully Bonnie fizzled so we didn't get near the rain we should have. I thought of you when I saw the weather this morning.

for 50 days out!!! I hope you have an absolutely wonderful trip. I know I keep saying that, but I really, really do.

hope grandma gets home soon, it sounds like you had a lovely anniversary

 

[Amy&Dan]

Tracy, I will say some prayers for your grandma, that must be so frustrating for her. Being in the hospital for that long is so draining and discouraging.

I hear you on the summer thing. Mine has been about polar opposite of what I had hoped it would be. Good thing we both have those Disney trips to keep us happy and excited!

 

[toystoryduo]

Thanks ladies. Your prayers for my grandma are much appreciated!

Today is my DD's birthday! I can't believe that my baby is 8 years old already! She's already opened her gifts and we'll be leaving in a little while for Chuck E Cheese, the Disney Store, and the beach.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

 

[Amy&Dan]

Happy Birthday to your dd! Wow, when I first met you, I think she was 3. Where does time go?

Have fun at Chuck E. Cheese (they do serve wine there you know)! And have fun at the beach too, wish I was there to enjoy that with you.

Have a great day Wish sis.

 

[eyor44]

Happy, Happy Birthday to Tracy's DD!!!! I hope she has had a wonderful day full of MAGIC...

Sounds like you had a great day planned for her.

 

[traceycooper]

happy birthday to DD

 

[Amy&Dan]

Hey Tracy,

Hope dd's birthday was wonderful and that you are having a great day today! When do you start back up with homeschooling? I can't believe the summer is winding down!

 

[toystoryduo]

Thank you for the birthday wishes for my DD! She had a great day yesterday!

I've spent a lot of time today looking for a bathing suit for my DD9 online. She is wearing juniors sizes now and it has been hard finding something that is appropriate for a 9 year old. I did manage to find a few at JCPenneys.com that might work for her so I went ahead and ordered them. Hopefully, at least one of them will fit!

Today's Plan:
* Surveys
* Workout (DONE)
* Work for DH
* Walk after dinner
* Shopping with birthday money for DD8?

We start school back up on August 17th. I can't believe that summer is almost over already! Thank goodness for a late summer Disney trip!

Hope everyone has a nice evening!

 

[eyor44]

Hey Tracy. Happy Thursday. Busy day yesterday. Did you take DD shopping?

Have you looked at WalMart for a bathing suit? The past few years, they have had just plain tank one pieces. Nothing to get excited about, but she 'd be able to go swimming.

 

[toystoryduo]

Thanks Lisa. We didn't get a chance to take our DD shopping yesterday because my DH got home late from work. We're going to try again today.

Weigh-in did not go well this morning, but I'm not surprised. I'm up 2 pounds from last week's weigh-in.

Today's Plan:
* Walk
* Surveys (only doing 2 a day)
* Work for DH
* Work on August schedule
* Help DH work on car
* Help DD8 with her thank you cards
* DD8 birthday shopping

No big plans for the weekend. I'm glad because we really need to look at our August schedule and make plans. Soccer and school start next month so we have to add in the work schedule around that.

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

 

[toystoryduo]

Well, our relaxing weekend kind of went out the window....My DH has to work today and then he needs to work on the car. He tried to fix the car yesterday, but he didn't have the right tools. He'll be picking up the proper tools after work so hopefully, the repair will go quickly with no problems. Good thoughts are much appreciated!

Today's Plan:
* Surveys
* Walk
* Clean and de-clutter
* Birthday shopping?
* Mail thank you notes
* Go over August schedule

That's about all from here. Have a great Saturday!

 

[traceycooper]

Have a great weekend Tracy - speak in 3weeks

 

[eyor44]

Tracy I hope your weekend ended better than it started. Did DH get the car fixed? He seems to be so handy that way. How was the rest of your weekend? Sorry about the 2lbs. Walk them off girl, you can do it.

 

[toystoryduo]

Thanks Tracey and Lisa.

My DH got the car fixed Praise the Lord!

Not too much going on...Doing a survey or two, working for DH, and trying to get some de-cluttering done. With school starting soon, I'd like for there to be more organization in the house before we get started.

We're down to 40 days until WDW!!!

My grandma came home this weekend! She still has an infection, but she is getting stronger each day. I'm hoping we can visit with her sometime this weekend.

Hope everyone has a nice evening!
