So, I went to a David Sedaris reading last night. He was hilarious. If anyone is looking for something to read, check him out. Also, I think he's on NPR, too. SInce we left at dinner time, I ended up eating a bag of peanut butter filled pretzels at the show, 1/2 Snickers on the way home, and a bowl of cereal when I got home. Not stellar. And tonight I'm hosting a "Girls Night In" potluck. Gotta watch my calories early in the day to compensate.
Kate, don't worry about posting, we'll hold the fort down til you get settled and can start typing one handed
Anne, David Sedaris did a piece last night that will be in the next New Yorker-go check it out. How'd your date go?
Hi to Katie, Robin, Colleen, Angie, Stephanie, Emily, and Natalie
I'm doing a 30 minute treadmill run/walk for the couch25k plan again. I'll increase speed instead of incline this time.

Morning, Klaudia! I'm glad you had fun at David Sedaris, I've heard he's great in person.
The date was fun, but not what we had planned. Hubby has a really bad cold, so he didn't feel like going to a movie. Instead, we went out for a nice dinner (he had pot roast, how comforting) and then he took me to see his apartment. It's nice enough, but he doesn't really like it. It's not a bad place, but it's small and now he has a critter in the wall! Hopefully that will get resolved today. Anyway, we talked a lot, which is a good thing.
I haven't eaten anything yet today and probably won't until I go to lunch. I'm meeting a friend and her 3 year old at an Ethiopian restaurant. It's one of my favorite places in town.
Kate--enjoy that little one and don't worry about us! I hope the girls are adjusting to their new sister.

Klaudia, what are you making for the potluck tonight?
Have a great day, everyone!

Good morning ladies,
It's crazy how much this check-in changes from day to day. Sorry I didn't visit yesterday. We were gone all day and I was exhausted by the time we got home. Even had a McDonald's cheeseburger for dinner. Ugh. At least I can say I got a workout in yesterday. It was Turbo Jam Cardio Party 3. I was bored with it - it's just not the intensity of Cathe! Can anyone recommend good non-step WOs by Cathe?
Today is supposed to be BC. Hopefully I'll get through it ok. I had a tetnus shot yesterday and my left arm is a little sore. I'm going to PF Chang's with my girlfriends tonight so I'm going to eat very little during the day - lots of fruit! I don't have any veggies in the "house."
OK...
Kate, we miss you around here but love thinking about you snuggling with little Julia! Can't wait to see pics of her! How are you recovering? How are the girls doing?
Katie, don't worry about a rotation for me. I figured one out based on the last one you made for me. Plus, I only have 2.5 weeks of it so I'll just work through what I can.
Robin, that's hilarious about your dog! What a great story!
Klaudia, have fun with your girls' night. I always have a tough time with my eats during those. I'm such a social eater!
Anne, ethiopian restaurant? I always think of that line from When Harry Met Sally, "I'll order two empty plates and we can leave." Hee hee. I'm glad your date night went well. I hope things are headed in a good direction! (((HUGS)))
Colleen, I bet you're getting so excited about your vacation. I'm so jealous! I know you deserve it.
OK, hi to Steph, Emily, Natalie! Miss you all!
Have a clean and tidy day all!

Wow! Slow day today. Where is everyone?
Anne, I decided to make one of the crock pot chicken recipes that were posted-chicken breasts with salsa verde. I'll make some rice to go with it. This party is kinda bumming me out. It's for my friend who's on bed rest. She lives super close so I offered to have it here so she could feel like she was getting "out". I was up for everyone bringing hearty appetizers and desserts-easy, fun. Her one friend decides to have everyone bring an entree to eat tonight and then give the leftovers to my friend for after the baby comes. So now we're gonna have a bunch of entrees with nothing to go with! So, of course I go out and buy some chips and dip, etc. Arrgh! AND she said to have me make brownies-but not my "No Pudge" ones cause my friend thinks those are disgusting! I mean, really? Oh, and on top of THAT, bring a little shower gift now cause this baby's coming in a different season-even though it's another girl!
I've done a lot for this friend lately- always having here at my house for playdates, lunch, dinner (she's never asked me and my girls to come by)babysitting, moving furniture for the carpet cleaners (when her husband should've done it), bought a shower gift and another when the baby was born, etc. I'm feeling a bit resentful now. I'm not even looking forward to tonight. Ugh. Sorry, I just needed to vent. Gonna go run now and release some endorphins-I'm gonna need 'em!
Angie, Enjoy your night out!

It is slow here today. Did I scare everyone off? I took a shower, honest!
Angie, have fun going out with the girls. I'm doing that tomorrow night.
Klaudia, I'm so sorry! Don't you hate it when people take advantage of you like that? I'm learning to say no, but it's tough. I hope your endorphin release went well!
I'm going to go start dinner--chicken chorizo chili. Yum. I'm going to let it sit on the stove while I do High Step Circuit.
I may not be around over the weekend--it depends on how busy I am. If not, have a great one, everybody!

Hey ladies, I'm here, just drowning in my stacks and stacks of files. I'm soooo busy at work. I'm considering going in tomorrow to get some stuff done with no interruptions -- except for Collin (I would have to take him with me). I guess I will just see how I feel tomorrow.
Eats have been clean, but no workouts (rest week). I am considering a power walk with the weighted vest tomorrow just go get my body moving. The only activity I've had lately is filing and pushing a pencil. It's not enough!!

Hello Hello!!!!!!!!!!!
All the girls are asleep!!!!!
Klaudia, I hope your party is going well. That stinks that it turned sour on you. I've been in your shoes before in a similar situation- not fun.
Anne, I hope things keep moving ofrward for you and DH.
Robin, I never got much of a say in my room either. Our kids are SPOILED!
Katie, Sorry for the work-drama! I hope you get some R&R this weekend.
Angie, PF Changs! I'm jealous! Have some great wall of chocolate for me!
The girls are great, btw! Thanks for asking. Isabel is almost tooooooo helpful - she rubs Julia's little head but its more like a noogie! Oh and they fight over who gets to hold her first!
Not much to report here. Eats are post-aprtum eats - not so stellar but I'm losing weight like crazy so I don't care! Heck, I'm burnin' 700 calories a day just nursing! Bring on the ice cream and cookies!
