    Popping in for a second, need to log DH's food and see what to pack him for lunch. Then off to do our P90X. I was thankful last night that the sheets were tightly tucked into the bottom of the bed. I needed to pull on them to sit up or roll over. :tongue: I have ignored my abs for far too long and I'm paying the price right now. Too bad today is that Ab Ripper again- I may have to lay there and watch it. :wink: Otherwise I'm minimally sore, nothing too major, little twinges here and there. It's a good feeling, I know I'm working stuff that hasn't been worked.

    I'll be back later when I'm eating. :happy:

    I got the shock of my life when this beardless dude walked out of my bathroom this morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    My husband has had his beard all his adult life-- mostly gray, and is a clone of his older brother-- which he could no longer abide. So he shaved it this morning. Said, "I couldn't stand to look at his face one more time."

    Amazing-- he looks ADORABLE.

    Oooh-- how exciting. Just returning the favor-- he says the thinner me makes him feel like he's cheating on me-- ha.

    It's been fun seeing the kids' reactions-- or lack thereof. So far, only 8yo Abby noticed-- it's so funny. Caleb (2) seems to know something is different and is staring at his papa-- so far, nobody else-- too funny.

    2.6 is nothing-- you know that-- I go back and forth with that much daily-- no worries.

    Hey gang. Went and bought the better paint sprayer.....:ohwell: Hubs said kids can do it. I say, nightmare, headache, not worth it. I will take the piece of crap back, it was $20, I would have spent $20 on paintbrushes for all the kids, that's $40. The better sprayer only cost $70. So $30 more for easier, faster, no kid hassle. I say worth it. Hubs may feel otherwise, but oh well! If it was him doing the job, he would have been at Lowes 5 minutes after he realized the other one was a hunk o'junk. He would have never spent 3 hours painting at a snails pace by hand. I know better.

    Gonna break the thing out of the box, keep my fingers crossed it goes well and head out!

    Later.

    Marla--Praying for your family esp mother in law.
    Jim has had a beard of some sort of facial hair since we got married. After our second was born he decided he was going to shave. She screamed and wanted nothing to do with him. Yep he grew it back. He's down to a goatee now and I don't see it going anywhere. Same daughter was upset when he shaved it to a goat, what a child.

    Tanya-- WTG !

    Lori-- I'm also with Marla. Nothing good would come out of it. You might get a vacation but it would be in a padded room.

    Roni-- I understand completely about lack of transportation. Our car breathed its last in August and we are still without one. Can't do a car payment right now so we are doing without. I'm doing a lot of walking and the fresh air is heavenly.

    Well I'm doing something right, had a minimal loss this weigh in. W3D2 for me today, post back later.

    I'm the silent partner in this team. I let Bobbi do all the talking, like I have a choice. Wanted to post that I had a good weigh in 219. Haven't weighed that since after I graduated from hs.

    Marla - Prayers for you and your family. What comes around certainly does go around. He'll get his, in time. I trust and believe that. Hugs my friend.

    Logged my b'fast. Heading to the store at noon to pick up some Easter gifts for the kiddos. Just can't do that with them with me. Hmm...imagine that.

    We finally got our Christmas lights off of the roof, windows, decks and out of the trees last night. We've had beautiful weather (Despite the snow that came this weekend. And, I missed it. I was in sunny Vegas when it showed it's ugly,white face.) We are now free to walk/jog at night as the weather warms up. Had my hopes up for a run last night but helped DH instead. But, I did spend about 15 minutes running from the kids in our yard and playing hide and seek with them. Got the old heart beating nicely I must say.

    In case anbody is wondering, a $70 power sprayer isn't the answer either. Dang paintbrush anyway! :grumble: :grumble:

    The sprayer does spray, mostly even, sort of, well, not really. Every once in a while it spurts out extra paint and big globs go flying- I've tried all the adjustments. The problem is that the spray of paint sort of goes everywhere. I hope I'm not spraying neighbors yards or dogs or toys or anything. :ohwell: I still have to go over it with a brush, although it is much faster than dipping the brush in the paint constantly.

    However, this will only be helpful where there is no landscaping, driveway, sheds or other obstacles. The grass is cedar colored where I used it and I would prefer not to ruin all my landscaping stones, mulch and other yard stuff!

    Guess I need to finish lunch and head back outside. I think it's supposed to rain tomorrow, painting break!

    okay-- so check this out--

    Hubs and Aaron-- aka swing coach and player on Phillipsburg golf team-- at the golf course.

    David and Sarah-- at work.

    Faith-- play rehearsal.

    Rebekah, Abby and Caleb-- playing at Lacey's house.

    Hope and Joshua-- playing at Leanna's house.

    Add 'em up folks-- that leaves little ol' me all alone in a blissfully quiet abode. How, oh how, did I ever luck out?

    Just had two sloppy jos for dinner (all by myself in a blissfully quiet kitchen) and still have 110 calories left on a 1200 day regimen for a snack later.

    Heading down to exercise in my blissfully quiet family room--

    For the next couple weeks, I'm not eating back my exercise calories much-- jump starting this ol' engine of mine is going to take the massive effort it took in the beginning-- I did it then, I can do it again.

    Onward toward goal, or die tryin'--

    Have a great evening, beloved.
