Hello everyone,
don't see the usual suspects up yet, starting this real quick!!

Morning,

OMG, what a day yesterday! I didn't get home until 8:30. I swear the full moon really does bring out the weirdos. So just wanted to pop on and say good morning. Hopefully today will be quieter and I'll be able to hop on again later and catch up. DH comes home today...the animals will be happy to at least have someone in the house

Lizzy - were your phones crazy yesterday too??

Have a good one!

Lori

Hello everyone,
mom's practitioner never called back . But I know major flu season on the cape right now according to my customers. So cant be tooo upset. Got that exercise in. Am unpacked but need to organize my gazillion family pictures.
I"m doing a lot of coughing already today,yipes, supposed to have a lot of snow on friday so hopefully that'll clear the air. Got the exercise done last night, hit my goal for water but could have been better. going to try my first quorn chix patty tonight.

as for ai- liked the girls @ the 1/2 half of the show. Bummer that a few of the girls had the flu.

take care everyone and have a good day
Lizzy

Lori- phones definitely were crazy. didn't help between the full moon and the eclipse.

Lizzy

Morning! I'm so tired this morning. I did that big workout yesterday and then helped the kids walk pigs so I got in a Good Hour of hard walking. So this morning I'm just like POOPED!!! The Taco Soup was Good last night! For today I've got two small hens in the freezer and I'm going to bake them. I haven't decided what I'm cooking with them I'll get around to that part eventually.
Lori- yukky at being out so late and Glad to hear the hubby will be home! Enjoy it!
Lizzy- It's so bad around here even our Urgent Care centers take days to get into. It's been very busy. Flu, Stomach Bug, and Allergies are making people crazy! Let's hope it clears up soon!

BBL!

Good Morning Ladies.
I did NOT want to get up! Last night I was online looking for a new job for about 3 hours. How the heck do you figure out if those telecommuting jobs are for real or a scam? There are NO local jobs....well there are 2 and I have to get the courage up, plus figure out the numbers, to see what Kevin thinks. It is part time, 5 hours a day. I work 7 1/2 hours a day now. I guess I should update my resume. Oh I did find one job 23 miles from home....conveniently at Kevin's employer! LOL I told him that and he said for shit & grins I should apply to see if they would put 2 & 2 together. I don't want to have to drive that far to work....particularly because I would have to take the one road I hate!!!
OK....so if anyone knows somebody that telecommutes, and they got the job through an agency, ask them what agency please.

We are supposed to get snow today and tomorrow. Not fun, especially since I have the car.
I will be going to get my hair cut later this afternoon. Once home from that, I will get some activity in. My new little focus is to get to 185.

Lori.....how nice that DH will be home today! Hope your day is less hectic.

Lizzy....I hope the NP calls you back today. Take care of that cough!

Alrighty....I will BBL.

April......WTG on your workouts!!!!!!!! Hope you have a great day.

Morning ladies! Knitting class went good yesterday, those old ladies crack me up!!!! Anyway, girlscout cookies came in, went and picked those up at the airport...did majorly well, only had 4 thin mints for 4 pts! Whoooohooooo.

Was not impressed by the girls from AI...they can all sing well, I guess I just didn't like most of the song selections. I think it's hard with 60's week and all, I'm thinking things will get better as the genres change.

Ok, I'll be back, gotta keep Regan on track...man if things arn't perfect that kid is meltdown city!

Morning.....boy am I dragging butt this morning...ended up taking pain pill @ 6 and knocking out by 7..then DD wakes me up to see the eclispe (well worth it!) and I took another sometime around midnight...YIKES! Did not really mean to do that....slept like a baby though....I am moving around better today..don't have that 9 months pregnant walk about me..LOL!!! I still had fever during the night so may call back to doc today and just check with him but feel sure he will say I need to give the meds 48 hours to work.

I did great eating wise and fixed a very light supper last night. Chicken tenders were on sale @ grocery store so I fixed them on my cast iron grilling pan..YUM!!!

Lizzy...hope doc calls you back today!
Lori..I think we have a horsey in heat...LOL!!! We are having some disagreements out there this morning...no problem--everybody is gelded but they like to think they are still men..LOL!!!
Nik..Uggg...girl scout cookies...I ordered 2 boxes but for the life of me, I don't remember who I ordered from?????? Maybe they forgot too..LOL!!!
April..WTG on getting those workouts in yesterday! DS tried to walk his gilt Sat..NOT!!!! I think it was over 2 hours of running her around the yard to get her back in the pen..she isn't a show pig or anything...she just decided the outside looked a heck of a lot greener than her pen did Sat when he was moving her from the boar...hoping she is bred.
Jen..Girl, I drive that far to work every day...but I understand..if I could find something close to here, I wouldn't do it either..only problem is I live in the deep dark country..LOL!!! We do have a saw mill and a sewing room within 5 miles from home...think I will stick with my drive!

We are expecting cooler temps today (50's) and rain coming in tonight, tommorow and Sat. YUCK!!! Looks like about 2 hours up from us, it is going to be an ice storm so I WILL TAKE THE RAIN!!! Then I heard we would be in the mid to upper 80's some next week...looks like spring is here for us! Our grass is coming out and the trees are all blooming now. I need to burn back the pampas grass and QUICK!

Ty girls. You know when it comes to walking pigs you really half to start out young. Just a few minutes a day but even before then the kids would climb in their pens and just sit and allow the pigs to become friendly with them. Then we'd take them into the lot and just practice by putting the stick beside their head where they see it and just trying to get them to go away from the stick. Then you want to start out walking 10, 20, then up to about 30 minutes. Each day the kids get in the pens and oil them and brush them. Twice a week we wash them really well. The pigs have a radio in their barn it helps them to get ajusted to noise levels at the shows keeps them calmer. One thing you might want to also look into is a stress test. See if they test positive. A pig that tests positive is more likely to stress out and die under the pressure so you have to watch them a bit closer.

Ok I'm going to finish getting the kids off to school. BB!
