Ok, so I had to start the title 3 times!!! First it was Thursday, Jan 2nd, then it was Tuesday, Jan 2nd, then I finally figured out what day I'm on! Ugh...I can tell what kind of day this is going to be Have a meeting first thing this morning and then busy busy busy. I'm only in the office 4 days this month so I'll be flying around like a chicken with my head cut off. Can someone stop the world please???? Actually, I have no room to complain. I just had a lovely week and 2 days off to relax and loved every minute of it!

You guys have a fantastic day!

Lori T

Good Morning ladies.
Figures, we are on a 2 hour delay this morning.....as long as they are going in though. LOL Seriously, if I have to listen to them fighting for yet another afternoon or hear bop bop bop bop till you drop on the wii, I will rip my hair out.

I was debating on going to WW tonight. This isn't the meeting that I would be attending, but wanted to just go so I could get everything. BUT I think I am better off just waiting until Monday and go to my real meeting. I also have to see if my one neighbor could watch Garrett for me while I go on Mondays. I am sure she will....I watch hers sometimes while she goes to bowling, so I am sure if I offer that up she would do it. Plus her daughter is really nice.

I already have my workout picked out for later.....Firm Cardio Dance Slimdown. I should do it this morning, but honestly I have no energy. Maybe in a few weeks with a few pounds gone and better eating habits my energy will pick up and I can do it in the morning like I used to.

Ohhhhh before I forget....tell Gina/Yogi to get her butt on here so we can say hello to her!? Lori, when you said about her going through her divorce, I have had her on my mind hoping all is well.

Don't know if you read last nights posts, but I was having trouble eating all my points yesterday...I did manage to get some more in by eating some yogurt and an apple, but I was still under.

Lori- Have a productive day in the office. Are you at least liking your new job?

Well I need more coffee, so I'll bbl

Jen

Lori
glad you enjoyed your time off. GL w/ all the traveling.
worked macy's last night from 6-10 and it was absolutely dead after 8.The mall itself closed @ 6. Think they wasted $$ by doing that. Oh well,got paid for doing practically nothing. Looks like I'm in a different dept on Thurs. Holiday trim. Oh joy. Hit the snooze bar several times today. Glad I set my alarm early anyways,I had a 45 min lag time.
I hope our systems are working today @ work. I know they were working w/ 1 system down on Monday.

take care everyone and have a great day
Lizzy

Whew, whirlwind morning...thank god cooper got up with wet diaper at 7:20....my cell phone (my alarm) shut itself off for some reason, yikes....and the kids WERE NOT GONNA BE LATE FOR SCHOOL!!!!! lol.....Ahhhhhhhhh, peace and quiet...listen to it....all i hear is sesame street playing in the distance....oh happy day....lol

So, i went thru all my old ww stuff last night, and decided that the old winning pts prgram is best for me, i never did adjust well to the flex pt thing, too much play room for me, and i loved the old journals, i found 4 unused ones...so i'm raring to go, gave myself a big pep talk last night before i went to bed...out with the old and in with the new!

Lizzy...love getting paid to do nothing, lol.

Jen...how dare there be a 2 hour delay!!!!! don't they know parents need to get their sanity back????? i texted the guy who plows the school last night and told him to not be farting around this morning...NO DELAYS ALLOWED. I rented Raymans Raving Rabbids for the wii, it's pretty fun, very funny stuff in it.

Lori...have a good week! i was confused on the day today too!

Ok, the silence has been broken, cooper is unhappy with something...OY!

Nik

Good Morning Lori, Lizzy, Jen, and Nikki! Went to bed propped up on pillows with a stuffy head... tossed and turned.... let me assure you, tonight I will be taking NyQuil! Ugh! Did great eating yesterday...I had trouble eating all my points too! Weird! Especially with how much I have been eating lately. I guess meal planning and journaling really does make a difference!! I probably won't work out today unless I do something from Exercise on Demand due to my cold...I will probably eat similiar to yesterday but today I plan on throwing a salad with black eyed peas in the mix! I have gotten to where I really love beans on my salad... especially black beans.... well ladies, have a fabulous day!

Thats right Nikki....how dare they have a delay.
Guys...I am realllllllly hating my job. Honestly. I wish I could find something else that would accomodate the hours I want like this job. I have a feeling in a couple of months I am going to look for a new job. I have to see what is up with Kevin's job first. He is at the breaking point with the traveling. It has been 10 years and I do not blame him one bit.

Lizzy- I hope you have a good day today!

Nikki- Try Rabbid Rayman 2 or whatever it is called...Nic has that and it is too funny. How much snow did my man have to drive around in this morning?

Allison- Hope you feel better!

Oh very nice.....the kids just said they wanted to play the I Spy DVD game after school, so I told them after I am done working out they can.....Little Miss smartass says ...oh you mean you work out?! Witch!

Pray my day goes fast at work.....I am sure I will be on later.
Oh PS....they are installing Terry's DSL today at home. Hooray!

Morning girls. We are still on break here! We didn't get out until 12/21 though. We go back Monday. As a teacher you never get a break if you have kids at home. Am I tired of hearing the fighting? YES and what do I get to go back to when it's time for work?! LOL
Well I am starting WW again tonight and I really can't wait. Planning was so much fun yesterday (really!). I am just going to make sure I stay with it.
Lori: I am glad you enjoyed your vacation! Have a great work day!
Jen: You wouldn't have anything to do with Kevin's tiring of traveling would you?! He finally has a great reason to stick close to home. I hope your job gets better or you find something wonderful. Remember you were looking for something wonderful when you found this job! There is something out there! Have a great day!
Lizzy: Yea!!! A slow night! And you got paid for it! Those are awesome! Have a great day!
Allison: Hope you feel better, buddy!
Nikki: Enjoy your one child day!! I loved Winning Points too!!!
Terry: I am so glad you are getting DSL! You are going to love it!

I miss Gina too! I hope she comes on here!! I'll BBL.

Good morning squirrels!
Up and at em' already. Just made a hashbrown bake and does it smell good! yummy! Got some menus planned for the rest of the week and now just have to run to the market. I am also going to go get that juicer machine. Holly loves carrot juice so I think it will be beneficial for the whole family. So if I juice a carrot does it have points? I guess not huh? Hmmm........

LoriT~I hope you have a chance to breathe today friend!

Nikki~ Hey did I tell you I got this cookbook for Christmas, Deceptively Delicious, it has ways of putting veggies into your kids foods by using purree stuff, I thought about you and your food processor last night while reading through it. I am going to have to find mine but I think I might have thrown it away before the move!

Lizzy~ Morning!

Jen~ Yep look for a new job in 2008 it sounds like a good plan! What are you crocheting right now? I'm still working on my knitted scarf......

Ok gang better wake up the girls and get this day started!

So today is day 1 back on plan. I had a good breakfast, im gonna either do soup or subway for lunch and turkey for dinner so I should be all set. The first few days back on plan I always have a hard time eatting all the points. Its like Im super consious of what Im eating. My goal for this week is to journal every stinkin bite. And get in my water. Next week I need to incorporate more protien into my diet. I have a hard time with that but I know when I do that it is what helps the weight come off.

Well I'll check back in later. Everyone have a great day. Im off to update the challenge.
