I did not have the greatest afternoon. I decided to "take off" the afternoon and just relax. Well, we had an incident in which Nikki threw up all over Alex and it was my fault (not that she threw up but that it was on Alex). He was traumatized and so we both cried about it. Ugh. I just want to forget about. Mowing the…

Mary, we are also having allergy problems here. Alex is now coughing and Steve and I both have had nose issues. I hope Alex's is just allergies and not a cold or something. I am cranky this morning. I think it's the overwhelmeds. I was planning on doing P90x today, but DH informed me the lawn needs to be mowed. I agreed to…

I think I am going to need a nap this afternoon. I was up too late with my friend last night. :yawn: Alex is tired too since he was up till 11 as well. We may all take naps. :smile: Went to church, my cute new wedge shoes broke. I hope target takes them back since I lost the receipt. They were too high anyway. Went to…

I hit fast forward V. Sorry but I've been waiting a long time for my little girl!:wink: My do nothing starts after I knock out the dirty dishes. :smile: Visas are in the mail, refrigerator is being delivered, and friends are coming over for dinner. Good day. Nothing doing boogaloo.

Happy Saturday! V, I haven't been logging my calories. I probably should be. I was working so much during the day that I was allowing myself to eat as much as I wanted because I was sure I had burned quite a bit off over the last week or so. I should be logging now because I am not doing as much but still want to eat as…

Mary, At least you got a good response from Charlie when you asked him why you are hungry all the time. Steve says to me, "You just think you're hungry because you like to eat. You're just bored." Okay so maybe some times. Ha ha! Quick post because I need to get back to work on the house before I run out of energy. I am…

Quick update because I have to go work in the garage. Ugh. I finally got hormone answers. So here it goes if you care to hear: my estrogen levels are 99 (normal range is 100-500), DHEAS level at 1.2 (range is 2-23). Progesterone is at 139 (range is 75-270). I am going to be taking all three of those everyday (gave me…

Good morning, V, how did your appt with the doc go yesterday? Also I am thinking I need to make some small to do lists. I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with all that needs to be done. For the first hour of my down time I felt a little guilty for not unpacking things. But as the night progressed I was fine with being lazy…

Livi, yes, the old place does get depressing once you get a new one. It's like test driving a new car that you can't afford to buy and have to drive your old one home. :laugh: I also am having TOM so we can have a party. :wink: CP, Yes I have felt that way when depressed! And that is the time when you need to do things the…

Update: V, I have been sweating enough for you. Don't worry. :tongue: (smileys are back!) Steve and the landlady have been emailing back and forth all day. We told her we had a couple of minor issues and somehow there have been misunderstandings or something and things are a little touchy. It comes down to: she's scared…

Aw, I wish you had gotten some rain Mary. We did get quite a shower on Saturday but everything is still brown. I was hoping to see some more green. But at least for 24 hours the yards weren't a fire hazard. ;) I couldn't make up my mind about what to do today. I was going to mow but the sprinklers were on early this…
-
Whew! I feel like I can actually relax now. This is the first time in three days I have opened my laptop. I've briefly checked in by phone. Now that I'm sitting I realize just how tired I am. Mary, I have no idea about the egg yolks. Wish I could help. Maybe if my brain didn't feel so dead. V, I am sorry that I do not…

Quick post. It is late. We are tired. We were all done moving the big stuff and boxes by noon, thanks to the wonderful guys that helped! We still need to get some small things and then the camaro moved over. Because we changed addresses we now have to have the adoption home study social worker come over and look at the…

Quick post! It's moving day! And it's raining a lot! Ha ha ha! Lots and lots to do. Steve and Ron packed half the house in the truck last night which is great! We didn't get a big enough truck so it will take two trips. I gotta get busy. I might check back in later. Leaving the rat-hole boogaloo!
-
Quick post as I need to get busy. I struggled getting much done yesterday. I had a bad headache as a storm moved through. A storm that brought dust and wind but no rain. :( It also brought cooler temps for a couple of hours. It was back into the 90's before evening though. Several people were disappointed that we were two…

Good morning, Is it just me or this week dragging by? I guess I need it to since I'm not all packed yet. Seems like it should already be Friday. I did sleep a little better last night. Still woke up and tossed and turn for a while but slept more than not! So I should have bundles of energy today right? (My smiley button is…
-
Good morning, V, I hope you get an answer soon about your schedule. That would drive me crazy too. How was your massage? Mary, I agree about the "rules" not fitting everyone. We are all made differently and function differently. I just wish I remembered what I was doing when I lost 20 pounds 3 years ago so I could do it…

Mary, my friend just left for India last Thursday. She's a pharmacist and going with a medical team to help children. She will leave from there and go to Africa to also work there. I look forward to hearing her stories, probably just as you enjoyed hearing from your teacher last night. Since going to Russia I wouldn't mind…
-
Update! Mummsy! So glad to see you! Congrats on your weight loss! Did I mention I am happy to see you?:wink: Mary, your long term goal sounds great! I plan way ahead too some times. Like when I told Steve a couple of months ago that if this girl Angelina is still up for adoption in a year then I want to go get her. His…
-
V, I love your Mary comment. :laugh: Mary, you are crazy but in a good way. :wink: Livi, how are you doing? It's a busy day. We went to church and then had lunch with Steve's brother and family. They live about an hour or so away but we only see them once or twice a year. So sad. We're hoping to have them over after we get…
-
Mary, how are the cats after the drama yesterday?:wink: V, were you able to get your work sessions in?And that's great about your flight being "paid" for! Livi, I wonder if the people who own your apartment complex also own this house we are in. :laugh: Glad we are both moving out! Today is a busy day and now DH wants to…
-
V, ugh. That's awful about your car getting messed up! :mad: So sorry that happened. I could comment more but that would get me on a soapbox. I hope the money comes up so you can still get away this month. Mary, did you get the toilets fixed? Livi, I was in the limbo mode shortly after I found out we were moving. I think…

That was a great blog V. Thanks for sharing! Mary, I tried the towel trick yesterday afternoon when my leg was hurting. Not sure if it helped or not. My leg didn't hurt that much yesterday and didn't even hurt as bad last night! I think it must have helped some along with some stretching. I hope it continues to get better…
-
Update: Mary, it doesn't really feel like a charlie horse, but I will try the towel thing when it hurts again. Strangely enough it hasn't hurt me at all so far today! Or at least very little. :smile: V, I got the gorilla app! Looks great. I am wanting to start now but I'd better see how my leg is doing. It would be just…
-
Good morning, Mary did you bike yesterday? How was it? Livi, I saw your post about the house! Congrats! Do you know when you can move in yet? V, glad your doctor said you are doing so well! That's great. How are YOU feeling about things? Pretty good? I like your watermelon story. My rehab would not be so healthy as…
-
V, your breakfast yesterday sounded good. :wink: Livi, can't wait to hear the news about your house! Mary, stay cool if you can! It's my usual Tuesday morning routine, although I'm moving a little slow this morning. I need to get off the computer! I got some kitchen packing done yesterday and will try to get more done…
-
Happy Monday. :happy: People were complaining about the heat at the beginning of June. I said, "People, you have a long way to go till it cools off again, so settle in and get used to it." :tongue: Now I'm getting cranky about it. Ha ha! Mary, have you put out dishes of water for any animals that might come by? My mother…
-
Livi, that's awesome about the house! I hope you get it! Mary, 17 years IS awesome. And we celebrate with food too. :tongue: Partially because it's cheaper than traveling to a beach, although that would be what we prefer. V, Russians do the same thing during the summer. They send all the orphans to summer camp somewhere…
-
Mary, Steve would love to have solar panels installed on our house. Of course we rent but if we ever buy we may do that. V, sounds like you had a similar experience in Chinatown as we do in Russia. No English signs and you use props and "sign language". :laugh: (Does anyone else have a problem spelling the word…

Good morning! I slept quite a bit better last night. Either the thyroid medicine is helping or my sinuses are clearing up (with aspirin and medication). I did wake up and couldn't go back to sleep for at least an hour. It was my legs keeping me awake. I think I have shin splints. Almost on the left leg and yes on the right…
