[toystoryduo]

Tracey,

I'm sorry to hear about your neighbors. I will say a prayer for them and their DD.

Great job walking to work yesterday! Your food choices look good too.

I hope you have a wonderful Tuesday!

Hi Tracey. How are you today? Wow. So sorry to hear about those neighbors. It's alwasy so hard on the children. Very sad.

It's great that you get to walk to/from work. I wish I were so lucky. We live out in the country and have to drive everywhere. I sometimes wish I could at least walk to the market.

Hope you have a good day!
Stacie

Thanks for the prayers & thoughts for my neighbours, she text me tonight & said she is still at her moms but they have 'talked' they are having a meal Friday, think he is going to move out & they're are gonna try seeing each other without living together.

fell out with the builders today - wasnt really their fault but i was ill & i'm not a morning person at the best of timers!... A lorry arrived & dumped 10 tonne of rubble on my drive right in front of the car!!! I was doing the school run!!! Had to back the car through a tiny gap with half the car riding up the rubble hill!!!
off to bed

Tracey, I am so sorry for your neighbors, I was hoping they had worked it out. That is very selfish of him to threaten suicide. I feel so bad for the daughter. Hope it all works out. I also hope you aren't sick with that bug, take care of Tracey! Too bad about the bbq, spring rain ruins many a school fundraiser. Your food looks good this week. Hope today was a good one and that you made it into work!

Feel better!

Had a drink for you at WDW!

 

[traceycooper]

Woke up Thurday still with sore throat & bad head but no worse or no better!! so walked to work with DD.

b/fast - cereal
lunch - sandwich, yogurt, cake
dinner- chk curry, mini ice cream bar

still didnt feel well enough for gym feeling guilty & frustrated about that! but did manage the 25 walk to work! DD said 'mum do you always walk this fast?' i was pretty impressed that my young 13 yr old thought that!!
DH bought me home as i had too much shopping to carry!
DD started to complain she felt sick in the evening...

Friday
Slept badly - kept coughing, woke up throat moved onto chest!
sent DD to school even though she said she still felt sick - i just wasnt sure if she was genuine, felt guilty though!!
10.30am got a call from DD's school to pick her up!
So i've been home since then!

b/fast - cereal
lunch - sandwich, yogurt, cake, mini chedders
dinner - proberbly fish & chips

wont make the gym AGAIN but walked the 25 mins to work but had to get a lift home to pick DD up.
i'm hoping i will feel fit enough to make the gym tomorrow!!
Off out with work tomorrow night - free food, free wine, free transport! not a good recipe eh??
to celebrate being in the top 10% of schools in the country

Tracey~

I'm sorry to hear that you're still not feeling well. I am sending some get well your way. Please don't worry about the gym right now. Just focus on getting plenty of rest, drinking lots of fluids, and getting better soon. The gym will still be there when you are back to feeling 100%.

Congratulations to your school on being in the top 10% of the country!!! That is quite an honor! Enjoy the celebration party!

I hope you have a great weekend. Feel better soon!

 

[Amy&Dan]

Tracey, hope you and dd are feeling better! You are exercising quite a bit with the walking you are doing, don't feel guilty, you have been sick and you have a sick daughter, how can going to the gym be feasible? Don't stress yourself over things so out of your control sweetie!

I hope you had fun at the work party. That school is where it is because of you (and others I know), so I hope you ate what you wanted and had fun! You earned it and its only one night.

Happy Sunday, hope you are all feeling better!

Hi Tracey,

Great job getting that walk in to work!

How are you feeling? Are you feeling better?

I hope you have a great Wednesday!

 

[Amy&Dan]

Hi Tracey,

That school trip sounded very interesting and fun but I can imagine that was a full day! Hope you are fully recovered and feeling better. You'll get to the gym, just keep up with the walking to work and it will all be fine.

Nothing worse than when you drink up a bunch of liquor and can't feel a thing!

 

[MIdanceMom]

Hey Tracey,

You know the gym will still be there. Real life can get in the way of your routine, but you are still exercising with your walks. Even a bit helps. Sounds like the trip was exhausting, but fun.

Take care of yourself,
Beth

 

[traceycooper]

well still not made gym!!!
BUT walked to & from work yesterday (50 mins)

Had dip last night but rest of week pretty good!
Off to watch AI hope to catch up with everyone over the weekend
Thanks for stoppping by

 

[toystoryduo]

Great job getting your walks in, Tracey!

I hope you are feeling better soon. Sending some for TOM to be an easy one.

I'm sorry to hear that you will be working with that teacher again. September is a few months away so maybe something will change between now and then. Sending for that too.

Hope you enjoy your Monday!

 

[goldcupmom]

Glad you're feeling a bit better.

Horrid you will have to work with that icky teacher next year....maybe she'll change!!

Even without the gym you've been good at getting in a bit of exercise. Don't sweat it! When you can't make it, you can't make it.

Hope you have a great week this week!

When is your school over for the summer?

 

[Amy&Dan]

I found out yesterday that in September i will be working back with that teacher i didnt get along with...remember her!!!

Oh no! I do remember her, can you ask to not be put with her? I guess you at least know what to expect, you handled it and survived it once, you can do it again. But that really stinks!

Walking 50 minutes is a darn good workout, you don't need a gym to burn calories and get in shape!

 

[MIdanceMom]

Hi Tracey,

I am sorry that you have to work with that woman again. Perhaps there will be a last minute change in assignmants?

Hope all is well,
Take care,
Beth

 

[goldcupmom]

How's it going, Tracey? Hope this week has been ok! Friday is almost here(even closer over there! ) !!!
YEAH!!!!!!!

 

[goldcupmom]

Happy Mother's Day, Tracey! (You're one of US, you know! - even tho your day in UK is different!)

Hope you've had a good weekend!

 

[toystoryduo]

Happy Mother's Day, Tracey!!!!
