  • Hi Tom, Sorry to hear what you have been battling both health and work wise. It is good to see you back. I can understand about work keeping you busy since I have been right there with you. Work and after work meetings are keeping me busy right now and I hope it slows down soon. The pizza sounds great so glad you enjoyed…
  • Welcome back to all the familiar faces that have been missing lately. It is great to see you again. Welcome to all the new people. I am just popping in tonight since I had a busy night and now it is getting late. Nikki- Happy Birthday. Best wishes for the year ahead.
  • Ferafilla- Congratulations on your little nugget. So happy for you. Robin-It will be like last year in that I will take a couple of days off of work to enjoy the trip and see the sights. You are welcome to join us even if you don't walk or run it. They had plenty to do and see at the Annapolis one last year and the run…
  • Lori, Karen, Kelley- Glad you are interested in the Hero's run. I will keep you posted on the details as they become available. Kelley, it is fine if you walk many people do. I hope we can all meet up for this event and that Karen will be in town. Karen- Yeah for a speech class and no papers to grade. Glad your shoulder is…
  • Robin-Thank you!!! Glad you like your new doctor and can get back to the pool. Kah-I hope the boot and cortisone shot works for you and it heals quickly. Lori- I agree with the others, that you should let your son learn the hard way. Just a quick check in tonight. I managed to swim yesterday and then today completed a…

Karen- Good luck with your grading and I hope the papers get better quickly. Great poem. Kah- Good luck with the lap top and I hope you get your job. Tanya- Dress to run in the weather. There is…
  • Hi all, Late night snacking has become my downfall lately as well. I am getting hungry at night instead of during the day. Of course I don't want veggies, I end up eating junk food. Need to stop that habit sooner rather than later. Kelley- Hope the interview went well today. Sorry, about the achilles but at least you now…
  • Skinny and Kelley- The sun has finally returned and the temp were in the 50's today. I am so looking forward to Spring and ditching the winter coats, gloves and hats. May we all continue to experience beautiful daylight and clear skies. Kelley- Good luck with your job interview, hope it goes well for you. Hansea your story…
  • Robin- The roads cleared up and dried enough that I was able to make it to climbing. It was a good climb. We ended up with about 6 inches of snow. I hope that was Winter's last hurrah. Lives2travel- It is amazing the difference a day can make with weight loss. Great job staying the course. tlh- Your comment about how your…
  • Susan- We started school the week before Labor Day. Tomorrow, will be our 6th emergency day so we will need to make it up. Kah/Kelley- Glad you were able to get to work today and that your snow is melting quickly. We had about 6-7 inches today. Schools are closed for tomorrow as well. Good luck with the achilles and other…
  • pgroni- Welcome, the last of the weight is very hard to lose. Have you tried switching things up? Hansea- I took my measurements today and was disappointed since most of them did not change even after several months. I need to make some changes again just not sure what they should be at this point. Soosun- Welcome back.…
  • cblue- with tomorrow's school closing we will have used all 5 of our emergency snow days. If schools are closed on Friday, then they will start taking days off of Spring Break. Our last day is June 18. If we go over by many more days, they have the option of asking the State Board of Education for a wavier of days.…
  • Kah- I hope the achilles problems can be resolved quickly. Skinny- Push for the scan so you can get to the extent of the problem and on the path to healing. I am currently having more freezing rain, but it should turn to plain rain tonight as the temperatures rise above freezing. Good luck with PARCC. Are your students…
  • Jennbo- I can understand your frustration between being sick and a shoulder injury. Just keep in mind that you are still recovering from being sick so an additional rest period will help with that. When it comes to injury, you need to let it heal since you don't want to re-injure it. Are you icing the shoulder? How did you…
  • Susan- I gave up on looking for a place right now and will pick up soon. The weather and my time has not been cooperating. Well, a 2 hour delay turned into another day off. I will be going to the pool in a little while to start my workout. Then I plan to hit the gym to finish my workout. Today, will be mini-tri since I…
  • cblue and ereilly- The triathlon I am doing is an introduction event so it is a sprint- Distance is 800 swim, 9 mile bike and a 5k run. The nice thing about this tri is that the swim is in a pool and the run and bike is on a trail that I am familiar with so I can go practice when the weather improves. Ereilly- Have you…
  • Kelley- Can you please keep the winter weather down in TX or send it back out west. That storm you had is now heading my way. Tomorrow, we have winter weather advisory for the day including snow and freezing rain. If we get this weather, it will mess up my workout plans. Since my gym does not open until 11am, that is the…
  • Robin welcome back, it is great to see you again. Great plan for the stairs. I had a great climb tonight and they were challenging. My arms and fingers will really feel this climb tomorrow. Need to run now as I need to some sleep so I can get up and go swim in the morning. I will be glad when it warms up in the morning.…
  • Well I got my wish and then some for a 2 hour delay. We had enough snow that it cancelled school for today. It started snowing about 5 am and then came down quickly. It was only 2.5 inches so it was easy to clear and it was nice to be outside. I did enjoy the day off and manage to get a couple of errands done. Plus a trip…
  • I am truly exhausted today and work was a real pain. The kids are just acting like fools. After teaching all day then I had 4 meetings as well today. My wish is that I have a 2 hour delay due to the pending storm. We could either get an inch or a couple of inches or 2-4. I just want a good night's sleep.
  • Susan- I am happy to see you again. I the dessert's at Junior's in NYC. All that chocolate, great job in only taking a few bites. The Bosu ball is a challenge as well. Karen- I am not sure if I am excited about the triathlon or just scared about getting nervous and wanting to back out. My goal is to stay calm for this…
  • Kelley- I hope the sleet and freezing rain leaves you soon and that you get your computer back. My school system is delayed tomorrow due the refreeze from today's melt. It hit the 40's today but tomorrow we are below freezing again and the rest of the week. Today, was spent shoveling yesterday's snow/sleet/freezing rain…
  • Holly- Great job on leaving the soda and fast food behind. With the soda you had a nice walk even through it was cold. Skinny- Great that you get to have a girls weekend. Tenis- Welcome to the group. Getting started is the first step and always the hardest. Just start by logging your food. Eventually you will start making…
  • Skinny (Karen)- Good article that you posted. Enjoy your emergency day off to tomorrow. Right now we are on a 2 hour delay for Friday. I am thinking that we will end up closing as well but the school systems are playing it safe right now. The state of Delaware has closed all of it's schools tomorrow and they are only one…
  • Just a quick drive by tonight as it is getting late. Hope everyone is well and welcome to the new people. Wish-that the kids at school would settle down and get back into the routine. They were extremely talkative today and would not listen.
  • Welcome to the new people. Hope you come back often and post when you can. Kelley- Glad you missed the ice/snow. Queen- I hope you and your son can figure out a solution to living under the same roof. Well, we had about 5 inches of snow so I spent the day shoveling and digging out the cars. Then proceeded to bake cookies…
  • Karen-I am getting hit with the latest snowstorm and we are expected to have 6-8 inches of snow. Schools have already been cancelled for tomorrow. The flakes are very fine but it is expected to pick up after 10pm. I just hope that the NE misses this storm, the folks in New England don't need anymore of the white stuff. I…
  • Barb- Love the pictures you posted, you look great. Lori- Have you tried Sudafed that you purchase from behind the counter. It was recommended to me by my doctor's wife and it has done wonders for me in the last couple of days. My cold/sinus infection is starting to disappear and I am not as tired this weekend. No…
  • Kapansm-Great conversation with your yourself and to have the control to put it all back. I often have those same conversations with myself. There are times when I win and others when the sweets win. I have learned not to go shopping when I am hungry or feeling stressed since I go for the junk food first. Goinstd12- Do you…
  • I made it back tonight so that is a plus. A good day at work but now I have a headache and sinus congestion. So my goal is to kick the sinus/cold before it gets me. Sorry no personals today. Wednesday wish- that I get over this sinus infection.
