    Ack I'm 22 pages behind!

    I'm in book-mourning as I've just finished the latest book in the Song of Ice and Fire series (Game of Thrones for you tv people) and the next one isn't even finished being written. Boo!

    I'm not sure if book-mourning is a real phrase, but I know several people on this thread will know exactly what I mean.

    If that isn't a real phrase it definitely should be. I know I've felt it before and I probably will again.
    Um
    I totally get book-mourning, especially after a series. (I'm looking at YOU, Rick Riordan!)

    ME TOO!!! I read constantly. One of my favorite series is by Patrick Rothfuss. The first book is called The Name of the Wind. The series isn't finished and the waiting for book 3 has been DREADFULLY long.

    ETA - Also, The Song of Ice and Fire series is amazing. I totally understand your mourning. Also, I loved Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series! I think we might have similar taste in books!

    I didn't read that first series mentioned, you quoted me and another poster (@spamarie). :) I've read Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, his Heroes of Olympus series, and his Kane Chronicles and loved all of them! I really enjoy kid-friendly books that have good plots. :)

    Sway by Amber McRee Turner is a really amazing child friendly book. I loved it

    Ooh, I LOVE getting book recommendations that I might actually be able to read! Thank you! :)

    Have you ever gone back to the classics like Thomas Hardy or Jane Austin? They are all g rated and Thomas Hardy writes beautifully. I like to read him just to experience his writing. And the stories are good too!

    Well my son is going to his dads tonight and that is always as most of you guys know super worrisome for me. I am resisting the urge to stop at the grocery store and buy a big bag of chips and maybe some dip and dive in and not surface out them til morning.

    I hope this went ok. I worry about your son now too!

    Awe thank you Patricia. I think things are going good. I talked to Kypton this morning and he said they were going to the park. I was glad to hear that. 24 hours and he will be home. Just one more night to get through

    Me too!! @Susieq_1994 will you please start one? With your cauliflower rice?

    I don't like cooked cauliflower as a rule, but maybe I'll like that.

    I don't like many cooked veggies.

    PS- 11,627 steps right now.

    Woohoo! So close!

    So, I did my 30 minutes of circuit training and followed it with a 4.25 mile run. Not bad for feeling like crap, I guess. @Susieq_1994, does the word "crap" bother you? If so, I apologize and won't use it again.
    Also, @LBuehrle8, I do not think it is selfish in ANY WAY to want to be fit and healthy at any point in your life...whether before or after kids. I am in better shape now than before having my son...20 pounds lighter than my pre-pregnancy weight...and with some muscle too...can see abs for the first time ever. :)

    So another confession...I'm tired of hearing about people getting free stuff all the time...my husband and I get nothing, ever!
    So this may be a little pathetic but I don't care..two nights ago (the night before my bday), I signed up for the Dairy Queen Eclub, the Cold Stone Creamery Eclub, and the Amatos Eclub...because I wanted my FREE ice cream, FREE Blizzard, and FREE sandwich for my birthday! We enjoyed Cold Stone last night...and I'll probably swing by Dairy Queen today or tomorrow! I'm also part of the Panera Eclub and will stop by there soon to grab my FREE birthday dessert. I haven't gotten my email with coupon for my Amatos sandwich yet...but I will enjoy that soon too! Yay for free food.

    Awesome job on rocking the workouts & free ice cream is never bad:D.

    Sure, I'll do it when I get on my laptop! :)

    For the record, I generally CANNOT STAND cooked cauliflower, so me liking the recipe is a pretty big thing. ;)

    Yay, you're so close!! Just 373 left! :)

    So many of you have expressed sadness and sent good thoughts and hugs my way after the tragedy today that quoting all of you would be impossible. But I want to say thank you all, and you honestly give me hope that not all humans are as bad/terrible as I tend to think they are; many of you have restored some faith in humanity for me.

    Sorry I am a bit late with this but you were the first person I thought of when I saw the headlines. XOXOX

    I'm sorry guys, I have to skip the last 50 pages or so... I've had a very rough last couple of days. My husband had a seizure and ended up at the ER three days ago. It was a very traumatic experience for both of us. Long story short, hes okay now, but we're both shook up and scared. Hope everyone is doing alright

    So sorry this happened and I am glad he is ok. Take care of yourself!

    I'm practically running the thread all on my own right now :D I own this page and probably half the page before it... I think I should go to sleep. O.o

    But before I leave, guys: REMEMBER THE FLUFFY PUPPIES. Maintain fluffy puppiness at all costs! And with that... I bid you all adieu for the night (well, morning actually). ;)
