    stacey way to go!!! great way to start the week.

    lettuce, how is caden feeling?

    Last week was so hectic i did not get to really push myself with the exercise(some walking and yoga), i did make fairly healthy food choices and managed to maintain. no complaints.

    besides having trouble picking up the pace after the lazy days of summer, the first week or two of school is like a difficult puzzle where you have to make all the peices of everybodys different scheduales come togethter to form a fluid family scheduale. i am on the verge of mastering the art of being in two places at once.

    i feel a good week coming on

    Stacey!! I am so proud of you!:bigsmile: That is wonderful, you did such a great job. Keep it up and keep on inspiring us! :heart:

    Angl--Caden is doing some better, thanks for asking but it appears both he and I have bad colds now..just not feeling too great :grumble: and I get what you mean about the first week of school but I know like you that we are going to have a good week this week!

    I am hoping to go at least for a walk tomorrow even if I still don't feel great.

    Why is it whenever the kids get sick I have to get sick too? Yeah, I know that I am tired and immunosuppressed but common, I think mom's should get a free card on this! Oh well, just live with it and grow stronger!!

    See you all tomorrow! Hope everyone is having a good weekend :flowerforyou:

    thanks :heart:

    you just inspired me to go drink more water.
    i ate plenty at brunch (after waiting 1 1/2hrs to be seated), and def. had lots of dessert. we decided, tho, that next time the closer local casino is equally good and cheaper (and i like the desserts there better). still, it was wonderful to just be together.

    then we went shopping for his h.s. reunion "outfit". his old stuff is worn out, out of date, ill-fitting. he hasn't worn or bought a sportcoat in many years. anyway, he looks so handsome in his new sportcoat, shirt, straight front pants, and tie. :heart: he's lost wt this summer and did p90x and gained some muscle too. he's my cutie again! and he'll look really good for the reunion (yes, i know how vain/superficial that is, but whatever. i can be that way :tongue: )

    so a very nice day.
    thanks again for the good cheers! and lettuce, hope you and caden get to feeling better soon.

    angl--your description like a puzzle is very appropos. :happy:

    later chicas--

    My twins are full of the cold this morning so I got a friend to take my 3 year old to playgroup whilst I said home with them. My friend had chocolate truffles for the mums coffee break so she gave me one which I ate for breakfast. Not the best start to the week but extremely delicious:laugh:

    I will never stick to this if I deny myself chocolate though, and I figure as long as I count the calories I will be ok. Hope everyone else is having a good start to the week.
