Everyone is taking that boring title a little too serious. I gess everyone was away or busy this past weekend.
I was in Dallas all weekend, not counting the 4 hour drive there and back. I did manage to login in iwth Iphone and update me food log and status.
Is this thread dead? Time to start a new one? HMMMM.0 -
sorry guysss I worked all weekend. And slept all day saturday pretty much. Was up for over 28 hours when I finally got home from work Saturday morning and fell asleep and slept until 4:30
sooo...whats up everyone? how was your weekend?? Do anything fun an exciting?
tomorrow is weigh-in day for me and Im thinking I lost NOTHING! but who cares? OH WELL. I know im gaining muscle and muscle weighs more than fat sooo...honestly the "scale number" doesnt bother me-- id rather see pants fitting, etc etc and they are so YAY
Everytime I see the lap giraffe on TV now I laugh and my husband looks at me funny, BTW.
woah...I just re-read what I wrote and holy hell I AM MARRIED AND BORING!! sorry. ill try to be more exciting.:yawn:0 -
I spent the weekend in Dallas at a cousins wedding. Lots of fun but way too much food. I did do good on the drinks and only had one cocktail. Cocktail, that almost sounds too dirty for thus thread, oh well. My wife had a few cocktails and was feeling no pain byt the end of then night, i was worried I might have to carry her form the car to the hotel room, but she made it.
It was a 4 hour drive to Dallas and then back, I did good in the car, packed my own snacks and only stopped for water and gas. Yay me!
Keep building that muscle. As long ad you are ffeling good and the clotes are fitting better, the number on the scale means little, I think they call that recompositioning. Loosing fat, gainging muscle but weighing roughly the same.
I am already on the waiting list for a pettite lap giraffe. http://www.petitelapgiraffe.com/
So I go tthat going for me.
We are all married and a little boring, that's why we are here.0 -
I was also gone all weekend, near Dallas actually. My mom lives in a tiny speck, that doesn't show up on most maps, Fairfield, TX. I ate ALOT... seriously lol. My mom made pork roast and mashed potatoes and peas and home made bread Saturday, I didn't eat the bread... not that it would have mattered considering what I DID eat for dinner lol. And Sunday she made Chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes, gravy, and green bean casserole. I ate like crazy all weekend, I really did lol.
BUT I fished, hiked carrying my 23lb toddler, walked ALL OVER the 8 acre pasture, fished some more, and had a stand off with an angry brahma bull. I worked off all my calories and then some! Oh, and I drank my weight in water... It felt like 150 degrees out in that pasture! We also used a little "southern ingenuity" and turned a 100 foot roll of plastic into a slip-n-slide for my kids and they seemed to enjoy it so much that my sisters and I HAD to join it.
It was truely an amazing weekend and I realized just how much I love living out in the sticks and I miss it so much. Only 17 1/2 years lefts of army life...
I also did pictures of my baby sister in her prom dress, omg wow she's beautiful! I'll post a few pics from this weekend at some point today!0 -
Sounds like you had a great weekend. Lots of home cooking. Nothing like the comfort food mom makes huh?
See you were so close to Dallas, you couldve met me and the wife for dinner.
Glad you had a good trip don't know if it belongs on this thread though, it didn't sound boring at all, especially with the slip and slide, fishing and staring donw a bull.0 -
I honestly have NO clue how far it is to Dallas from moms lol.
Yes, I have definitely betrayed the boringness of married life. And can I just point out that, while I am perfectly capable of handling the damn livestock, my brother-in-law was standing OUTSIDE the fence watching my sister and I coax the angry 1300 pound BULL into the pen by ourselves. I mean... really?! So much for southern values, right?!
I put a few pictures from the weekend in my photos, I don't know how to post them in here lol0 -
Fairfiled tx is about 4 hours from San Antonio (where I live) and about 2 hours from dallas, I think.
Your brother in law was proabbaly just respecting the women's right struggle and didn't want to make it seem like you needed a man to save you. I get that. I respect that. Good for him. Becasue, you could and did handle it. You go girl!
Nice pictures, looks like the kids were having fun in the mud.
I have a few to post form our Dallas weekend and the wedding. I will get to it tonight.0 -
did you see me rocking the polka-dot rubber boots and the swim suit cover-up? That was a topic of conversation for the entire family all weekend lol. Even funnier was Iput the boots on (to chase frogs with my oldest) right before my little sister came home to take pictures for prom, I offered to trade her black dress for my hot pink one, but she declined lol. Not that her dress would fit me... but it will SOON!
no, my brother-in-law just didn't wanna work! LOL0 -
looks like fun!!!!
i, too am on the list for a lap giraffee. did u watch the live feed of them?!?!?!
i am jelous of the slip n slide!! we make one with a tarp at the cabin over the summer....always a good time. I have the next 2 days off and tomorrow is mine and matt's anniversary!) Well...kinda. its when we started seeing each other haha
its nice out today-- gonna take the dog out for a walk later. and then workout yeaaaa
hope everyones having a good day!!!0 -
I watch the live feed quite often lol. I NEEEEEED a lap giraffe!
Happy (kinda) anniversary!
I didn't workout yesterday cuz I was a bum, and today I'm not gonna work out either, but I am cleaning my house like a mad woman because my MIL is coming soon... so I'm def burning off my calories!!!0 -
Viva la lap giraffe!!!!
I can't wait to get mine. Iv' veen on the waiting list for weeks. I put another on the waiting list for Tami's campaign. I think it will be nice for them to play together. We can video them playing and post it on Youtube and make all the non petite lap giraffe owners jeoulous. Epic Win!!!
My wife also likes to celebrate the time we met as "one" of our anniversaires. We met at a friends wedding, weekend event. We flirted with each other all weekend, sat next to each other at lunches & dinners, texted each other flirty lil messages, danced at the wedding and talked on the phone all the way on the drive home. Saw each other like 2 days later for our first official date and have been inseperable ever since. We fell instantly in love and have never looked back. Wow, I went on there huh?
Anyway, I will defineitly have to consider the slip and slide this summer. We have been toying with the idea of a pool but dont want to drop 25K or more to do it. A plastic tarp and water hose is so much cheaper and less maintenance.
Noting like some quality time with the MIL. Mine lives about a mile or so away form us. It's not as bad as it sounds. She always call before coming over and its s not that often. I have a pretty cool MIL0 -
My MIL is over 24 hours away ;o) haha but i love my husband's family...theyre all amazing. and he gave me a sister and brother i never had that i love to death! i was an only child since my mom had me at 41 and got sick when she had me and couldnt have anymore children. so having siblings in fun!!
Tami, I'm sure youre burning tons of cals...yesterday night I worked really hard at work stocking stuff, scooping 900 ice creams and cleaning. I was nonstop from 415-1130. fun fun!
I am number 842,000 something on the waiting list for my giraffe. im kinda bummed! thats a lot of mini giraffes!!!!!!
i just got home from an ambulance call (rollover motor vehicle crash) and had lunch...gonna wwatch secret life (i know im pathetic...yes) and do some studying... then workout later!! yay for days off!!!!0 -
My MIL is really awesome as long as she's not pointing out what a loser her son is... UGH. She really has been great to me, she treats me really well, aside from ALWAYS pointing out that I'm a terrible housekeeper, but whatever. Like this trip she's making here is to stay with my kids while I go to Chicago for 3 days with my bestie. She taking off work and coming up here without complaining about it at all. The problem I have with her is how she treats my husband. I swear if he, GOD FORBID, were injured or killed in Afghanistan she would be A-disappointed cuz that's not good enough and B-tell him it's his own fault and that he was probably doing something wrong and so thats what he gets... and IF she got the life insurance money she'd also blow it like nobodies business, same as she did with his little sisters life insurance... she's a real gem of a mother! So why exactly is he such a mama's boy?!
Ok enough of that, I could go on for days...
I am number 852,000 something on the list. but Once we all get our giraffes we'll have 4 and we could totally start our OWN lap giraffe farm! EPIC WIN!
I watch Secret Life too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0 -
in THAT case.... ADRIAN AND BEN?!?!?!?!?!?!!?! AHH!
and we COULD have our own lap giraffe farm.)
i am SO unmotivated today! WHY!? days off are nice but when theyre surrounded by SUPER busy days they make me just want to do nothing all day.0 -

I have to agree... I've never done any workout I love as much as Zumba!!!0 -
Alright... this thead has been limping along for several days now. I am glad it is still going, gives us a chance to chat and comapare lap giraffe notes. LOL.
My MIL loves me to death and thinks I can do no wrong, but she is a little overbearing on my wife. I guess a mom is always a mom to her children. Sometimes it irritates my wife to the point she gets upset. I of course do the whole, "tell her your almost 27 years od and you can manage your own life" but it never works that way. I am so not a momma's boy. My wife has to tell me to call my mom, otherwise I won't. I actually suck as a son. I figure my phone gets calls as easily as it makes them, so they can call me if they want to talk. Anyway.
Just glad to have time to chat and find boring common ground with you all.
If they ever inact the private room feature, then the conversations will be much moe lively I'm sure.0 -
That is true.... I think they should have a message program...like FB or yahoo or whatever--- where you can talk instantly with people online. That would be much easier to keep track of! haha or even online chatroom kinda places!
So I slept until 11 today with hubby.... INSANE. I havent slept that late in a long time! Bad thing is now my back KILLS!!!! oops. hopefully I can work it out. Right now it hurts to even move!!
Oh well... gonna go watch House with Matt (because its RAINING!! so no hike:sad: ) and then bake for his bowling banquet tonight....then workout when he leaves at 445. ill be back on to check.:glasses:0 -
where isssss everyone? espcially my 2 favorite MFP'ers?! I feel lost today without you guys! lol0
-
I have been MIA all day! busy busy busy... hit the floor running at 6am and JUST sat down for the first time all day about an hour or so ago... whew!
How was everyones day? I missed y'all!0 -
My day off was...ok. Baked, grocery shopped, worked out, and watched army wives... nothing too exciting. Not looking forward to work 1-6 today!! but am looking forward to getting my hair done tomorrow as a birthday gift from my mother.... and going on a hike in the morning with matty!!!!!! happy (a few days early) birthday to meeee!!
And while I dont plan on splurging on cake or ice cream on my ACTUAL birthday...I DO plan on having a high calorie asian chicken salad at applebees because i love it and I dont care!!!! One day a year I am going to treat myself to something I really enjoy and not feel guilty about it.
Ok well... going to do some cardio and weights, shower, head to work, then come home and do some more cardio!! zumba tonight again...thank god for free zumba on youtube!!!!! and just dance on wii is a good workout too!!)
Ok...time to get to it!! Have a good day everyone!!!!!! :drinker: I'll be on tonight after 7 or 8....talk to y'all then!0
