Good Morning Ladies....of course the rest of you are sleeping, not sure what the heck my problem is, but it's about 5 here and I've been up and down most of the night. Oh well, what the heck, it's nice and peaceful, lol...Maybe I worked out too late or something.

Alrighty, I'm gonna go check up on Jen's raquetball experience!

Morning Nikki! At least I know why I'm up early. It's 4:22 and my daughter has to be at school at 5:30. So I'm up waiting for her to get around lol. Oh guess what I started doing last night? Crocheting! haha! I haven't touch that stuff since I was about 12 but I decided I needed something to do. I'm having to reteach myself. That's a slow process. I got one Single row and then I couldn't remember how to do the next row. I figured it out but my problems seems to be that I'm not as coordinated at I once was. So Sometimes my string is loose and others it isn't lol. I'll just keep working. I told Al I think the last time I attempted this I was about 12. The color then was multi purple and now it's multibrown lol! Amazing how much we change!

LOL ladies, I should have logged in earlier,we could have had a gab fest. Went to bed late and woke up early too(not even related to the cat waking me up)
Watching some on demand shows, dirty jobs( thought of you nik) and how to look good naked( i love carson). did some crocheting and ground some turkey and ham for lunches. Eating my wt managment oatmeal(banana bread flavor,yum). Once I get my rear in gear need to get to laundromat to do laundry(and more crochet ) Also need to do grocery shopping.
Need to take a nap in there too. whoosh I'm making myself tired.

take care everyone will be back later

Morning Lizzy. You are exhausting me just talking about what all you have to do! I'm back from taking Coley to catch her bus. They are now on the road! I'm so nervous for her!
BB!

April
I'm sure she'll do fine want to get a lot stuff done today, guess another snow storm might be coming this way, they aren't really sure @ this point. Sunday going to watch ex coach his basketball team. Hopefully they'll win. They havent won a game this yr. They really stunk it up w/ the 1/2 of the game that I watched last week.

off to do laundry
Lizzy

Good Morning Ladies.

April....some crochet books that helped me learn are Better Homes & Garden 1,2,3 crochet and the Happy Hookers Stitch & Bitch. I looked at others, but honestly those 2 books have helped me with my stitches the most. I had only known how to make a chain, sc & sl from my granmda before she died and I have taught myself the rest over the past 2 years. I totally gives me something constructive to do instead of stuffing my face in the evenings. Good luck to NaCole!!!!

Nikki- Go back to sleep!!!!!!!

Lizzy- Didn't you know that me and Nik share Mike? I have a couple of dirty jobs he could do for me!!!

I have to decide what to do for a workout today. I am totally sore from racquetball last night. My 1 arm(particularly the forearm) and my legs and butt are KILLING ME! I was going to do a sculpt tape, but I might opt for something else to keep it light.

Not much on tap for today....a workout, laundry and cleaning. Jess will be home at 3 and her dad will be following us to her game since it is kinda in the sticks. I don't know what time Devan and Blair will be here. Might be we get tham after Blairs game this evening.

Food was good yesterday...I stuck to my points. I have been sooooo in the mood for Thai food, so last night I made a lower point version of Chicken Pad Thai. Even Kevin ate it which I found surprising.

Oh well....need more coffee.

OK I chose to do the stability ball this morning. I did crunches, leg lifts, back, arm and chest work with weights and I ache! I am telling you that racquetball made me sore last night!!!

OK off to clean.

Hello again everyone,
morning not turning out what I'd like it to, get to the laudromat & my detergent is frozen solid No single size detergent in the machines. So laundry is put on hold right now since I wasnt going to buy a full size one. maybe tonight. Did get an errand done but the grocery store I went to really didn't have the things I wanted on sale. So off to the other one later. Tried to take a nap but not working yet, may just buck it up and shower. May be going for some indian food for lunch, still debating right now. Might take a rest day or do strider or a walk later.

Jen- didnt realize you liked him too. hee hee. Good job w/ the exercise. no room for a stability ball here, barely have room for floor work since i did the furniture swap in the fall. When I attempted to do the pilates really not much room to stretch out on the floor, & I'm only 5ft.

alrighty need to chug a lug some water,
take care everyone
Lizzy

Well I should have gotten on the computer earlier..like around 3:30 AM...it was one of those horrid nights where I tossed and turned almost all night and basically cat napped. DH & I were on the war path most of the night as he was tossing and turning too and it just not make for good bed buddies..UGGG!! Finally made it to the den around 3:30 and guess what the wood stove fan is not working..YIKES!!! There was a HUGE, HOT fire in the box and the stupid ass fan was not kicking in...so we had to get it open and cooled off before any damage was done to the stove itself...quite an adventure..NOT!!! So bright and early called the repair guy and he talks DH through a couple of things and WALAH...it works again!!! He did say that the motor to the fan may be going out so we need to watch it for a few days (another expense)..oh and did I mention the central heat is not working either something to do with a freaking relay switch..OMG..calgon where the hell are you????? Oh and service calls to us since we are so far out in the country are at least $50 just to see what the problem is..Xan, I need your $5 refund..LOL!!!

Okay so enough of my bitching this morning...I was just told that I had become a "chronic complainer" by DH...he needs to move his ass on out of here this morning!!!!

Got to get my laundry done (Lizzy..that is horrible about your detergent) and clean up this filthy house before it gets condemed.

Oh...we did not get any winter precip...we actually are under a winter weather advisory...it is really cloudy but temps are already moving up steadily so I look for it to be a rain event.

Jen..sounds like your afternoon was adventure too!
Nik....hope you enjoyed your temporary peace and quiet this morning
April..what is DD doing today..Im sure you said it but I must have missed it.
Lizzy...hope you have fun at the game tommorrow

Okay..off to brush my teeth and wash my face and then more laundry!

P. S. Brocolli soup was a HUGE hit last night and DH even took 2 bowls to his mom this morning..I am going to post it on the recipe thread!

Morning girls,
Well, it's saturday...house is still in COMPLETE disarray, and mom is arriving at 2:30. Not really the way I wanted her to visit the new house, but not much can he done about it. Need to get some breakfast and at least tidy what I can and run the dyson around the house (I swear I love that thing!).
Dh will be waking in 9 minutes and running to the old house to feed fish and move some more stuff. Tomorrow is really our last day for moving...I have to start cleaning. I'm actually thinking about paying a cleaning service. I'm just so darn done.

Yesterday was about the most painful day I've had yet with this foot. I say foot because it's really taking over most of the upper foot now. Dh thinks I should go get an xray. I dunno...the bruising is gone but it still swells pretty badly. Think I'm gonna be trying deep water aerobics next week, so I can get back on the wagon without any stress on the foot.

Y'all need to go back to bed!

Lizzy-I don't miss frozen laundry detergent I hated that.
Jen-hope you get less sore later on
Nik-go back to bed girl...that was me all week....3:30 mornings. Ugh.

A'ight...I gotta wake dh as he's not moving yet.
C-y'all later.
Sue
