Thanks! :) Have a blast at Busch Gardens!!!! I went there so many times when I was stationed down that way back in the day. Enjoyed it more than Disney! LOL You should get a ton of steps!!!! You'll have to let us know what the grand total is. :)

Hello all! Woo hoo! Down 3.2 today! Go me! LOL So happy to see the scale going in THAT direction. LOL

Hi everyone! Hope that everyone had a great weekend! I worked my per diem job on Saturday for 12 hours and then yesterday my BF and I took advantage of the nice weather and took the motorcycle out for a couple of hours. @larrodarro- I will have to post an updated picture. My son's plant is sprouting some new peppers that…

@larro- LOL Nobody in my household does hot peppers. My son LOVES bell peppers. We we bought a yellow bell pepper plant.

Hi everyone! Still lurking around but being a total slug. Okay, maybe not a TOTAL slug but I'm not "working the program" the way I should. LOL I really need to work on that! Larro- My 5 year old and I picked out a pepper plant (complete with peppers already emerging LOL) and a cherry tomato plant. He is so proud of them!…

My son is 5 and I totally agree! Gotta start somewhere! :) Feel free to add me.

@ruby70- Thanks! I can't believe he is going to start kindergarten in the fall! Very cute pictures of the baby birds!!! We have some in the bird house in the tree outside the house. You can hear the little sqwakers when their parents come to feed them. LOL @Alf1163- Your granddaughter is so cute!!!! Time seems to speed up…

As promised, a picture of my son's preschool graduation! My BF Larry, my son Joseph and myself! :)

Morning Cool Kids!!!! Wow! What a busy end of the week last week and the weekend! Had to do some proficiency testing at my per diem job on Thurs from 8-12. Thankfully I passed that with flying colors and then I decided it was time for the gym and I to get re-acquainted. LOL I did two miles on the treadmill and was able to…

Hey everyone! Ugh, I have been such a slacker since coming back from the cruise. Who knew that a week's cruise would suck every ounce of motivation to work out out of you once you got back! LOL I've had my son for the past two weeks since getting back. It's been awesome but he goes back to his dad today until next week. No…

@alishaspringle- Thank you for the words of advice and encouragement! I'm confident that I will find my groove once the move is complete and we are settled in. I just really dislike this unsettled feeling. What are once-a-month meals? Thankfully my BF does shift work so he is actually off until the weekend this week so I…

Morning everyone and happy Monday! I have been so horrible since getting back from our cruise....well, not horrible but at least bad. I am also in the process of moving in with my BF and my commute to work has gone from 25 min to an hour and 10 minutes on a good day. Add in trying to get my 5 year old moving way earlier in…

Hi Cool Kids!!! I'm back!!!! Vacation was awesome! Fabulous weather and calm seas (for the most part). @alf1163- you would be proud! For as much food as there was we only ate at meal times and I managed to only gain 2 pounds! I used to gym on the ship once. The rest of the time I did the Carnival Splendor Stairmaster. LOL…

Evening Cool Kids! I'm officially on vacation!!!! We fly out for our cruise on Saturday morning! So excited! I'm thinking I won't be checking in until I get back but I will try and figure out how to post pictures on here when I do. See you all in a week!!!!! :)

Good morning Cool Kids! Have I mentioned how much I dislike early morning workouts/runs? Was at the track at 5:15 this morning, supposed to meet a GF and she flaked on me. Figured since I was there I would bang out 2 miles. LOL But man it was cold! Only 36 degrees! @alf1163- Thanks for the permission! I will try very hard…

Hi everyone!!!! Busy exercise day for me! Was able to sneak out to to do a little over 2 miles worth of loops around my hospital and then when I got home, the weather was so nice that I couldn't pass up a run. Did my normal route which is about 2.5 miles. Of course my RunKeeper decided to pause right in the beginning and I…

@caramelgyrlk- please, please, PLEASE stay safe! Stick close to home if you can. Hugs and prayers to you, your family and community!

@alf1163- Thank you! This will be my first cruise so I reserve the right to really screw up and gain a few pounds. LOL I'm hoping not though. I would like to think that I can at least maintain. I'm sure that there are going to be plenty of new foods that I will want to try but I am going to try and not go overboard (no pun…

Hi Cool Kids! Today was my weigh in day and I actually lost 0.9! I'll take it as I have maintained over the past few weeks. Leaving next Saturday to go on our cruise so I think I will probably weigh in on Friday since we are flying out early Saturday morning. Probably won't have a lot of internet time while on vacation.…

Morning everyone!!! Sounds like everyone is doing well. @alf1163- so sorry to hear about your daughter's best friend! So tragic! @cancervixen and @toadhunter911- welcome!!!! :)

@3furballs- so sorry to hear about your kitty! I feel your pain! I had to put my two senior pups down July and Nov of last year. Hugs to you and your family!

Thanks Larro! The 9 miles yesterday really surprised me. My feet still hurt today. That can't be good. LOL

Morning Cool Kids!!!! Was off all of last week cause I had to work the weekend to help cover a co-workers vacation. Not a fan of spending nights here at the hospital as I tend to eat horribly. However, I did log 7 some odd miles on Saturday and 9.02 yesterday running around this hospital. It may be small but we can be…

@3furballs- Yeah, it's a bit painful which is why I don't do it very often. LOL Morning everyone! Hit the treadmill last night after work before picking my kiddo up at daycare. Got about 2 miles in before I had to head. Last night my boyfriend ordered me a new Fitbit (early birthday present!). I currently have the Ultra…

@Curiousgeorgianna- Awww thanks! You are so sweet to say that. I'm a respiratory therapist and I love my job. I work full time at a small rural hospital and work per diem in the 500 bed hospital. I know that at least two of my patients were appreciative of my work this weekend, only because they told me. LOL It's always…

LMAO oh I LOVED this! And you are so right! Don't EVER "eff" with ANYONE'S Pumpkin Spice Anything!!!! I have never even heard of this woman. I will have to go check her out just to get a good eye roll exercise in.

@nickpnh- LOL yeah, I don't know what makes me think that after running around a 500 bed hospital all day (for a 12 hr shift) that I would feel like hitting the gym afterwards. However, I did have my Fitbit on and I logged 5.1 miles doing all that running around! AND I believe 13 flights of stairs or something crazy like…

@Curiousgeorgianna- nope never did make it! I really wanted to but I was so tired, even more-so on Sunday. I was even busier at work that day(LOL). Was assigned patients on 4 different floors(same assignment that I had on Saturday) but it was MUCH busier for some reason. It wasn't even a heavy assignment. But I ended up…

Alf, Alisha and Larro- LOVE all of your pictures! Alf- my BF and I are heading to the Western Caribbean on May 2nd. So excited!

Morning everyone!!!! Love the pictures Larro!!!!
