NSV – Was not tempted by the doughnut gathering as I came down the hall to my office this morning! o:) Lenore: Children are crazy! We have learned to accept that fact. There is always an “in-law” problem! One child always says you love the other child more than you love them. Somebody is always fighting. I can’t tell you…

Happy Monday Ladies! I had a nice weekend although the lightning and thunderstorms were rather severe at times. Managed to fit a little shopping in, a 5 year olds birthday party, church, dinner with our pastor and his wife, and riding to a small local city to look at a couple of trees with the SO. I am feeling much better…

I think I'm still in the cycle... I was so snarky to the SO this morning that he's giving me the silent treatment. Maybe he's getting a little pay back. :( I am in my office and hope that I can stay in solitary for most of the day. have a great weekend all.

I’ve been a little yucky for the last two days. :( I had a partial hysterectomy 20+ years ago and every once in a while I would experience all the symptoms associated with a menstruation cycle – bloating, aching, upset stomach, acne, etc. It hadn’t happened to me in the last year but it sure got me Tuesday. I felt so awful…

Mia: From 36 to 18 is an outstanding accomplishment! I started out as a 22W and am now in a comfortable 18W. My goal is to a size 12W. A regular 12 would be good but I have so much junk in my trunk and I don’t think it will ever be the same size as the rest of me. When I don’t eat on time my blood sugar levels drop and I…

Good Morning All! <3 I am feeling a little slow today. Didn’t want to get out of the bed. Didn’t take Storm for his walk this morning. Stopped and got a bacon biscuit instead of my usual yogurt for breakfast. I do have a salad for lunch and some cherries which I hope will be sweet. The SO and I are going to the gym this…

Hey Ladies! :) I missed you all over the weekend. I am promising myself to buy a new computer next week. There are too many pages to catch up on after the weekend. I managed to survive the trainer Sunday morning and felt pretty good about myself. She really is teaching me anything I didn’t know before but she does provide…

Happy Friday Ladies! I was and remain far behind in reading and posting but things have been a little hectic around me. I started this post yesterday and didn’t get a chance to get it on the board. Work remains crazy. BeautiControl is starting well. I feel good. The SO gave me money to do whatever I wanted with, but it had…

Good Morning Everyone! :) Hope you are off to a bright start. I got out for my morning one mile walk with Storm this morning. It was beautiful and I managed to work up a great sweat. Can't wait to workout this evening. I enjoyed my weekend in DC and I did have an opportunity to walk but did not drink water and do my…

Margaretturk: I am definitely not having a bad day! Thanks to you and DH for helping us keep things in perspective. :) DeeDee: Noel is an outstanding alarm and security guard! You need to give her extra treats from me and Storm. :) Sylvia: Granddads are like that. ...they never say no. :s Six year olds don’t know the…

Yesterday I thought I would rest from exercise routines. However, the SO was waiting to workout with me when I arrived from work. I had been under the impression there was going to be some horizontal exercise upstairs – boy was I wrong! By the time we got through the routine we had trouble going upstairs to bed. I had more…

I had the best laugh at the SO last night. :D I shared the routine I did with the trainer with him. He had been adamant that whatever I did he was going to do too. I would do the exercise first then he would do it. So after I did the first one – standing leg lift – he did it. I proceeded on with half body push-ups – he…

Janet: I am not a diet person. As soon as you say only eat this – I’m going for the bag of chips, cookies, etc. >:) Her plan does have 4 meals per day. I may talk myself into committing to it maybe Thursday and see if I can make it. I didn’t try to add the calories up. One day at a time for me and it! Katla: The next thing…

Hey Ladies! Hope all of you had a great weekend! Yesterday was my first session with the trainer! One full hour of torture All said and done I came home soaking wet and immediately took an Aleve. I still had to walk Storm before going to church. I really enjoyed the workout and we didn't do anything I can't do at home. I…

Not doing well with posting this morning!

Signing Off For the Weekend! Hope all of you have a great weekend. Sylvia!: Please stay calm and let us know that you are alright! <3 Tere

Janet: I do feel better after my confession! :p I had to tell somebody!
-
Let’s start the day with a confession! I had to have a country ham biscuit this morning so I stopped by Hardees and picked one up. As I was walking in the building on of my co-workers stopped me because she had a gift for me. It was a Bojangles country ham biscuit. The confession is I happily ate them both. Woe is me! >:)…

Hey Ladies! I had a pretty crappy day yesterday! I guess it was the culmination of months of frustrations with car repair bills so I went out a bought a car using the continuing breakdownmobile as a down payment. :s So now I have a new car payment which I thought I could do without for a couple of months. On the flip side…

HAPPY JUNE 1ST LADIES! Barbie: You are the bestest! <3 Janet: You are absolutely correct! Each day does offer n :) ew opportunities for good health and happiness if we just look for them and choose them. :) Michele: My weigh/check in time is Sunday morning. It’s because I know Sunday comes after Saturday and I can exercise…

Carey-Edmonton: Thought for the day: “Whatever you want to do, do it now. There are only so many tomorrows.” – Michael Landon This was just for me and exactly right. We are attending so many funerals that I have a dedicated outfit to wear and its so sad! So I am proceeding forth....just printed some stuff from the…

Happy Friday Ladies! I really feel refreshed after my vacation. I’ve only worked 3 days this week but I have not felt stressed nor have I wanted to reach out and punch any of my coworkers. I realized how much I am sick and tired of working for a government agency and constantly dealing with the politics of wanna-bees. :#…

Happy Thursday Wonderful Ladies! The beach vacation was wonderful. We did not make any plans other than to just relax. I got lots of walking in and have a very nice tan with no sunburn. We did get out on a dolphin tour and ran into lots and lots of them. It was fun. The water was pretty cold but I did manage to wade out a…

Joyce: I did take it personally as the absolute truth :p especially if you went to a church located in a rural area. You could be there for hours and hours. I used to envy the Catholics because their services were so short and sweet. Yes we do get preached too and most of the time lately it is the only thing keeping my…

This poor girl has a lot of problems evidenced in part by the fact that her Mother asked you to help her. Why won't the Mother step in and help her daughter. I hear shifting my responsibility onto someone else. I think everyone is right she is too young to be lifting. They probably both need counseling. My son lifted…

Two posts in one day from me is reflective of how much work I’m getting done. I am soooo ready for Friday! ;) Sylvia: Loved reading about your tub experience. :D I had the same thoughts about a jetted tub for my house. I have learned from you that I don’t need that. One of my colleagues attended a “Homerama” here and was…

Happy Tuesday All! Sylvia: Loved reading your thoughts of cuisine and fashion in Madrid. Many years ago I worked for the Foreign Commercial Service with an office at the corner of 16th and Pennsylvania Avenue in D.C. There were anti-American marches every week. I often wondered why these people were in America if they…

Hey Wonderful Ladies! :) Hope you all had great weekends. I had two of my grandchildren this weekend and enjoyed them. My GS had me playing baseball with him. He is 7 and small in size, but is big in heart! I threw, he hit the ball and then chased it down. Grannies don’t chase balls! My 8 year old GD is the perfect little…

Carey-Edmonton: Thanks so much! I echo the sentiment! <3 Thought for the day: Today I choose life. Every morning when I wake up I can choose joy, happiness, negativity, pain... To feel the freedom that comes from being able to continue to make mistakes and choices - today I choose to feel life, not to deny my humanity but…
