Good morning everyone. Today is going to be a long day:ohwell: Something in the yard set Zeus off at 4:30 this morning. After checking it all out I went back to bed and then couldn't sleep and just lay there until the alarm went off at 5:30. At least I dont have a whole planned for the day. Got the kids off to school and…

Good evening everyone. It looks like everyone had an enjoyable Easter. We had a family brunch at eleven and then when we got home I took the dogs for a long walk and relaxed for the rest of the day. I did go over on my food even with the walk but between the extra I banked the day before and then today I more then made up…

Good morning everyone. I just had a very nice walk at the lake with the dogs. Got out a little earlier then usual so there was almost no one else down there. I went to bed really early last night and woke up to the pleasant surprise of my kids having cleaned up the kitchen last night. This is very rare unprompted so was a…

Good morning everyone. It has been a strange week but all seems to be calming down now. I had a nice walk with the dogs this morning though I had to modify the route as there was a strange dog on one of the roads we usually go down who wasnt confined and was behaving very aggerssivley. I got to follow the walk up with…

Good morning everyone. The week was off to a real rocky start but seems to be evening out now. Yesterday was really just a wth kinda morning. I was walking the dogs and went to clean up after Zeus and discovered he hass worms so that started the day with a 48 dollar prescription. Then on the way home for the walk someone…

Happy Friday all. I have had a fairly good week and been keeping somewhat busy. I have got out to walk the dogs everyday for varying lengths of time depending on how my ankle is feeling. I went and did some grocery shopping with my mom this morning and picked up a nice ham they had on sale so i decided to make a ham dinner…

Good morning. So far so good today. I got a short walk with the dogs since my ankle was pretty tender this morning. Now I am sipping a smoothie with lots of fruits and veggies and snacking on almonds. I had to get up and get the puppy a doggie treat because he seemed to really like the smell of the almonds and was in full…

Good Monday morning friends. I hope you all had a great weekend. Mine wasnt to bad. I got in a couple nice low key walks with the dogs. No challenging hikes for a couple more weeks yet. Want to give the ankle plenty of time to heal. I started putting in my garden on Saturday. I put in snap peas, green beans, beets ,greens,…

`Good morning everyone. I just put some strawberry cream cheese cobbler in the oven. I had a bunch of strawberries about to turn so decided to make a treat for the kids and my dad. Though i am sure I will have a piece:laugh: So far today is going well. Took a nice slow short walk with the dogs. I am going to try and take…

Hi everyone. I was trying to get caught up on the last few days but I promised my nephew he could use the computer. I have been out of comission all week. I brought the kids who are on spring break over to my house on Monday. We took the dogs down to the lake and were going to walk them and just as we got started I…

Good morning everyone. It is a horribly wet day here in washington state. Unfortunatley it is supposed to stay this way all weekend which we really dont need right now. I have got a big pot of barley mushroom soup cooking on the stove and I am just going to cave up the rest of the day and hide from the rain. Making the…

Just wanted to say hi real quick. Today was a mich better day and everyone managed to survive. Got a bit done around the house and sme errands run. This afternoon I was messing around with some video games and looked at the time and thought I better get dinner started. Well got it all cooked and was eating mine wondering…

Oh today is not a good day. I am feeling just cranky and pissy and cant seem to shake it. I am pretty sure TOM is knocking on my door based on the cramps in my lower back. Thank goodness for Jeff he has escaped to work. Now just pray for my two kids and animals that they make it through the day:grumble: I tried taking the…

Good morning. Well I am going to have to be strict with the food for the next couple days. I will probably try a short walk for the dogs sake but long ones are out till my feet heal. One foot got an infected cut on the bottom of it and I must have been overcompensating for it on yesterdays walk because now the other foot…

Hi all. I just got done putting in my strawberries, parsley, and cilantro. I love summer when I can grow my herbs and they are just there when I want to grab some for a meal. Had a great walk today with the dogs though for some reason the bottoms of my feet got sore again. Other then that not a whole lot going on here…

hi everyone. I am really late getting on tonight but wanted to say hi. I had a fun day getting some housework done this morning and then this afternoon my son and I went and tried out a new hiking trail in the olympic forest. It was great going down the path and going back up was brutal but I still loved it because I made…

Well today is going pretty good considering the way last night went. I woke up at about 1:30 with a raging migraine that pulled me right out of sleep. It took about three hours and a couple doses of excedrin migraine before I was able to go back to sleep. I woke up feeling fine but I can feel it still hanging out in the…

Good afternoon my friends. I got the hubby off to work yesterday and then pretty much caved up with a book and my dvr. This morning I got up and purged all the junk food out of the house. I had my son take it to work with him. (yep he got the job yay) I weighed and recorded the 6 pound gain from while he was home and got…

Good morning everyone. Ty for all the nice comments on my new pic. It is my first successful selfie taken on the giant ferris wheel on the Seattle waterfront. That was a great day with the hubby and kiddos. Had a busy day yesterday getting the garden plot ready. My dad gave me a square area that is 16x20 feet. We had to…

Good morning everyone. Sorry I haven't been to chatty lately but rest assured I have been lurking in the background and trying to keep up with you all. We are in the final push to get my hubby ready to go back to work later this week. As always I will really miss him while he is gone but I swear I am not moving from this…

Hello everyone. My Wednesday wish is that everyone suffering with illness or pain starts to feel better. The start of this week was a little rough but is smoothing out now. We are having beautiful weather and I went out and took the dogs for a walk. Went a little different then usual and incorporated some hills. My…

Happy Sunday everyone. I had a pretty great day today. My hubby and I took the dogs to one of the nature walks in our area and had a nice hour long walk. After coming home my daughter asked if us and our son wanted to go to downtown Seattle and walk around and have some fun. I burned a ton of calories which was a nice…

Good morning everyone. I went to the dr with the hubby and they have put him on cholesterol meds and he got a lecture about diet and exercise and how he should cooperate with my suggestions since I apparently understood what needed to be done:laugh: Needless to say I got a chuckle out of that after we left. Once we got…

Bump and good morning :flowerforyou:

Hey guys. I had a pretty good monday. Got the kids off to school and then a little housework done this morning. Hubby and I went and played some cards with my folks and then when the rain cleared out we went to the beach with the dogs, kids and my neice and nephew. Lots of walking playing and fun:happy: I had a nice 2…

Good morning everyone. So my day seems to be extending into a totally screwed up week. Yesterday I was out walking the dogs and a car turned down the road we were walking on and the dogs lunged for it. They caught me off balance and I rolled my ankle when I came down. I wasnt able to put any weight on it yesterday but am…

Hello everyone. I swear I am having what my mom alwasy called a "DAY" today. First I wake up and my mouth is killing me but I dont like to take pain pills except at night as they make me very tired so that meant suck it up and suffer when the ibuprofen didnt work. Then I remembered the time wrong and was an hour early for…

Good morning all. I just got back from a walk with the dogs and a quick shower. It felt good to get out and get in the whole five laps again. I was actually tossing around with throwing in a sixth to get me over 10000 steps but then I had to pee:laugh: I am now trying to psych myself up to go to the dentist. I am getting…

Good evening everyone. I had an uneventful day. I was initially over on calories since my dad pulled out the summer sausage and cheese while we were playing cards and I already had a very high cal dinner prepped. I was ready to log it and move on for the day and then my son suggested going to shoot hoops after dinner. At…

Hi everyone. I had a great road trip with the hubby and a nice overnight visit with his family. WE saw two of his brothers and his aunt and uncle. I didnt really get in much exercise and while I didnt log any of my food I think overall I made decent choices minus the drinks on friday night of course:blushing: As always…
