My favorite thing to do at easter is once I boil the eggs I like to crack the ones for deviled and then dunk them in the dye. Once you open them they have this beautiful marble affect! They are pretty!

Ok girls I'm off to work have a splendid day!

Jen..I found the egg recipe when we were doing the super bowl recipes..I just got around to trying it!

Okay speaking of Easter eggs..does anybody have a good tip for boiling the eggs where they are easy to peel..I have the WORSE time with this..also anybody know any tips on boiling fresh eggs (as in the ones from our chickens)?? I have never been able to peel them period if they have been boiled!!!

Ok, I just have a sec because we all slept in today. Got home late from the Pizza Party...yuk. I just wanted to tell Terry that I've heard if you put them in a pan full of cold water and crack them in the water and let them sit for a minute it loosens the membrane under the shell. Haven't tried it, but that's what I've heard.
Must run and get the kids up.

bbl,
Sue

Hey girls, finally have some time. I swear we get near Spring Break and everything goes crazy at school. I am looking forward to it sooooooo much. I have been in a very blue mood lately, even the dh (and that doesn't mean dear husband) asked me why I was being so quiet. LOL Just trying to make ends meet and make sure everybody has every damn thing they want from me... but I'm not effing bitter or anything! And to top that off my baby turned 5 and I'm never having another one and that hit me like a freaking ton of bricks. I keep thinking about all the good things that come with children growing up, but not having someone to cuddle and need me is going to SUCK!!LOL
Confession: food choices are KILLING me!!! I do so good during the day and then I am so busy after school that I am just eating randomly. I have stayed the same weight for 3 weeks now and I KNOW I could have lost if I had even tried! Having Faith's party didn't help too much either. I need a good ass kicking!! LOL

Jen: I do hope you are enjoying your time off and your meeting with your mom is awesome!
Lizzy: 3 day count down for me too. Let's make a promise to each other to get some much needed rest!!
Terry: I'll have to pass the egg recipe along. I don't eat deviled, but the rest of my family does. Faith calls them deb-iled eggs. My back still sucks! She's doing some different vitamins and supplements for it, but I won't feel their effect for a couple of weeks. I really think my bed is contributing to this. My mattresses are new, but I hate them. Since forking over 2K isn't an option, I am about to move to the couch!
April: When I was thinking about putting in a gym I was looking at Butterfly. I hope you love it! Awesome fundraiser project! We just got through doing one for St. Jude's and I think we are going to raise near 3K just from little ol' Eunice!
Nikki: I said a little prayer for your ferries. Have a good day!
Hope I didn't miss anybody!

hey all Im alive and breathing even lost 3 lbs last week. Work and home have been super busy. Today seems calmer so I thought I would check in before some one needs something! I hope all is well with everyone. Jen congrats on getting laid off (at least you didnt have to quit)! Enjoy your time, hopefully the right job is waiting for you. Well I have to go damn phone is ringing again. Ill try and check back later....

OK....back from WI and I am up. Not sure how much and honestly, I am not looking. The only thing that I am looking at is moving forward. I have an awesome plan in place and am very very motivated. Let's face it, last week I think my stress level was off the charts and my being on Core during that time just gave me a license to eat.

Back to journaling every morsel.
I did well with exercise last week and I am going to totally rock at it this week.

Terry.......I always put them in cold water afterward and then peel in it and I don't have any problems.

Sue.....hope you have a good day.

Xan........I hope your stress level comes down a notch. I totally understand about "the last one". Even last night I was getting a little pissy about it. Devan was talking to us about having kids and I got a little touchy.


Ohhhhhhh speaking of Devan.....he was busted again for inappropriate text messages!!! GRRRRR. I am sorry, but this is EXACTLY why I felt he was not mature enough for a cell to begin with. On top of that, this is not the first offense...if he lived here, that phone would have been GONE. So again, we had a whole dicussion with him about sex, expectations, etc. He is such a good kid....so good, so this reallly is a disappointment and I told him so. What shocked me, and maybe it shouldn't have, was the fact that after Kevin tossed this latest incident on the table, I was the one that had to start the whole dialog. At least once I got the topic started, Kevin started to say more things.

Alrighty.....I have to run to the store and then back home to workout. I am going to do a firm today(one of th newer ones without the step) and also the stability ball.

BBL

Jen

Xan...(((HUGS))) buddy, I know what you mean about the mood...blue isn't the color to describe my mood lately.

Erin...great loss!!!!


Ok, got off my lazy tush and worked out...felt good.

Mike has really been down on me lately, and it's really getting to me, he's doing it in a joking way, but it's really hurting my feelings....there is this woman over here who is such a fruitcake, she's a real piece of work, she's very white trashy, very big gossip, she always looks really sloppy and dirty...so Mike has taken to calling me by her name. It brought me to tears last night, and he apologized, but did it again this morning. I know I've really let myself go...I've gained so much that nothing fits me anymore, and I realize I've become a real let down to him. Anyway, called my doc this morning to see if he has any suggestions, anxious to see what he has to say.

Ok, I'm off to get in the shower, I'm a giant sweat ball!!!!

Nikki, Jen & Xan...don't feel bad, I have stayed the same for like a month now and I have been trying..I mean really trying...getting my water in, getting my exercise in, eating right but for some reason, the scale won't move anywhere..not even up?????? When I weighed this week I was super upset at the same figure on the scale AGAIN and I was telling a friend of mine about it last night. I think my metabolism purely SUCKS!!! I may not even have one anymore?? Thinking seriously about going back to the doc that will give me the B12 shots each month (but it cost thru my butt and ins won't help with them)...the pills aren't working (vitamin B) and my doc won't talk to me about helping me..he just says do WW..I AM DAMN IT!!! I have tried my best to stay upbeat for 2 weeks but after reading your posts, I just had to vent myself!!!! I almost...I repeat almost, blew it this morning...I wanted a candy bar soooo freaking bad but I didn't do it. I ended up with lf frozen yogurt instead..gave me the sweet taste I was craving and it was better for me but I really wanted that blame candy bar...I am hoping my boss has eaten it by now..he will eat anything....LOL!!!

Hey Erin...good job on w/l!!!!
