Morning ladies.

What is everyone doing for the weekend and next week.

How many of you are going back on the clean and tidy wagon with me?
 
Katie I'm glad that you got alot of moving done yesterday and today you will do some more. Now that's a great w/o.

My w/o today Amy ASC II section 4 and 5. Today I WILL master them.

This morning at the scout meeting we are doing swaps (key chains and puzzle pieces with bling) and we are making smores on a stick.

b-cereal
s-smores }(
l-turkey sandwich
d-??

My cheat meal yesterday was only pancakes.:-( I feel like I've been cheated out of a cheat meal.

If my In the Ring does not come today I'm going to email Amy.
 
Morning Peeps!

Robin, I'm with you, back on the wagon. I fell off yesterday and it hurt! Pancakes sound good; were they homemade? That's not a cheat meal, but I eat way too many carbs albeit they're whole grains.
Enjoy your workout today and I'd email Amy. You should have received it already.

Katie, Woo Hoo, lots of moving done! How are you feeling today?

Kate, How was the circus?

Steph, Any advice for this carb addicted woman who wants to shed some bodyfat?

Jenn, Hope all is well.

Hi Colleen!

I teach TK this morning and then I'm comong home to do some scrapbooking. YEAH!

Let's make today great!

A friend in fitness,
Shirl
 
Robin, I'll be on your wagon! I have definetly slcaked the last couple months. Enjoy the smores - then you're back on!

Shirl, Hope TK goes good today and you have lots of new, energetic students! Have fun scrapbooking - I'm 1.5 years behind!! Circus was lots of calorie-laden fun! They had tigers this year, my fave!

--------------------------
No real concrete plans for the day. I have a few errnads I need to run.
Workout will be the Perfect Pregnancy Workout. I've never done it before. It's a toning/strengthening WO that came highly recommended. Planning on some cardio after that. Maybe some of Imax 2.

Katie's doing MoveMax!

Today is Week 13 of this pg. The LAST week of the 1st trimester!!! Next week enters the "golden trimester"! I've been working out consistently, eating is improving, everything is getting better and better.

Have a great one today!
 
Good Morning Everyone!

It's the weekend!!! But I am working this weekend :-( I have a migration going on which is why I did not post the last 2 days. I have been busy between work and just trying to do something other than work. Since I was in a training class yesterday, I need to go through my email today to make sure I didn't miss anything important and to file the 200 emails I got yesterday.

Jenn, hope you and DH had some time to talk last night. I know that always help me.
Steph, I have the same question as Shirl. Between TTOM and all this work my eating this last week has not been great. I hope to get the quinoa today.
Kate, did everyone enjoy the circus?
Katie, glad you got a lot done yesterday. We got a thunderstorm out of nowhere last night too.
Shirl, Enjoy your scrapbooking today. I wish I enjoyed activities like that but I am more a techie than a creative person.
Robin, I had a problem with Hi/Lo Knockout (there was 30 seconds of the DVD that was damaged) and I received my replacement DVD within a week. I think you should email Amy in case she forgot.

Anyone have any great allergy remedies? The weather here has been great the last couple of days but my allergies have been really bad. We are supposed to get rain today. I hope that helps.

Colleen
 
Oh Kate, I wish I were only 1.5 years behind. You don't even want to know how far behind I am.

Colleen, Sorry you have to work today. I'm trying to be more creative. I've been avoiding scrapbooking. My photos are in regular albums or photo boxes. Scrapbooking is a new adventure. My kids asked me to do it. So, I've been trying; I find my creations humorous.

Ok, I really need to get ready for TK.


A friend in fitness,
Shirl
 
Colleen, Sounds busy for you. I hope you get a few moments to BREATHE today! No allergy remedies here - we see a chiro and that seems to keep us pretty healthy.

Shirl, I really need to get my head back into scrapping. It's so easy to get out of the habit. I really want to get caught up before baby comes. yeah, right! Michael's has Cricut cartridges on sale for $40. maybe I'll go buy one and that will motivate me to get busy!

---------
B was Smart Start (no nausea!) and a small banana. I made eggs, bacon, and cinnamon rolls for DH and didn't eat ANY. How good is THAT?!
No plans for meals the rest of the day.

off to start choremax.

Steph, how are things today? Have a good day with Christian! Surprise him with something!
 
FUNNY SATURDAY STORY!!!!
Here's a great laugh for ya!

Remember the potion taht DDs made this week?
Well, I let them save it to show DH that night. I think this was Wednesday.
I asked DH to dispose of it outside in the woods. Given my queasy stomach right now I didn't dare lest I puked some more.
He never got rid of it.
Y'day the cleaning lady was coming so I wanted to get rid of it. (didn't want HER to puke!) I was keeping a towel over it and it was on a corner countertop in the kitchen that I don't use. didn't really smell since the towel was on it.
Sooooo... I dumped it down the kitchen sink. By now it had sat for a couple days so it was pretty thick. But, hey, I've got a commercial-grade disposer so what the heck? Dump it down!
Last night DH comes up from the Mechanical Room and says "What did you DO in the Mech. Rm?!"
We put 2 and 2 together and figured the sludge backwashed into his urinal somehow.
Figured it was the end of story. Not so.
Just a few minutes ago he went downstairs and came RUNNING up yelling for big towels.
I ran the dishwasher this AM and apparently there's still a problem with the sludge/potion.
That'll teach him a lesson for not doing a quick chore for me!

hahahahahahahahahaha! Revenge is sa-weet!!!}(
 
Hi ladies,

Thank you for everything yesterday. I did speak w. DH last night. He still doesn't get why it bothers me because he doesn't think he did anything wrong. I understand I am over the top jealous, possevive and become easily insecure that some other woman would be able to take my DH away. He reassured me that he loves me, and is happy with our marriage and not looking to f@@@ anything up. I told him it hurt me when he spoke with me that way and he said he had never been so mad and he acted like that because I act like I don't trust him. And I guess in a way I don't, and he doesn't deserve that. So I need to trust him more and hope that if he were in predictment he would make the right decision.

Kate great story, that will teach him. :)
Shirl I did order all of Traceys I hope they come soon.
Katie hope the move goes well.
Robin I hope your In the Ring gets here soon. It is fun.

Hi Colleen and Steph.

I took walk on my lunch.
menu-
b-1/2 bagel w. cc
small cannoli}(
coffee
l- lean cuisine panini
d-?

DD and I are spending the night at my girlfriends house so the kids can have sleepover and spend Sunday together.

Jenn
 
Jenn, Glad you could talk with DH. Try to have a date night soon - always helps us. HAVE FUN tonight! Sounds like a blast! A good friend of mine that lives about 10 hours away is planning up a scrapbooking weekend for us WITHOUT KIDS for this summer. I'm already excited!
 
Dinner's done, all is picked up all over the house. DDs are eating popcorn and watching a movie. The movie is a very rare treat and they are so excited. They only get to watch one every few months.

Thanks to Robin's motivating post this AM I've done a pretty good job of keeping on the bandwagon! Not 100% clean, but definetly tidy.

Katie Girl, How's the moving going? Laptop unpacked yet!!?? You are gonna CRASH tonight! I'm tired just thinking about moving!

----------------
Not-so-funny Saturday story.
The drain line is totally clogged. We have to have a professional drain cleaner come. DH tried with his equipment and can't get to it. Oops. But I don't want to pay for weekend overtime charges so we'll wait til Monday. No dishwasher, no kitchen sink. Thankfully, we can use the toilets and showers. Whew.
 
Good Morning Ladies

OMG Kate!:eek: At first I was laughing about your sludge-max but I read your last post. Man it is going to cost money to fix that. How was PP w/o kate?

Amy sent me an email on Sat and the dVD is in the mail.

Shirl I love to scrapbook but only have time to do it during Christmas holidays.

((Jenn)) I'm glad you spoke to DH b/c it's difficult to walk around upset all day.

Colleen my DS suffers from allergies so he takes singulair and saline drops. Both helps but he still suffers until summer comes. Then he suffers from Eczema(sp?). I know that he is allergic to milk so maybe you will need to see an allergist.

Today so far I've done laundry-max and breakfast-max (Cinn french toast with strawberries and syrup )

:9 Now I'm off to do some grocery shopping. Then I can do my w/o Gym Style BBS.
 
Robin, Nice morning! I love getting things done for my house. Your biceps are gonna burn! I think it'll be about $100 to clear the drain line. We have a company we use for our business when we're too busy to get to certain service calls or when the problem is more than our equipment canhandle. They're a good company and hopefully(!) won't gouge us! Glad your DVD is coming....finally!

We'll head off for church in a litle bit. Lunch and dinner will likely be out to eat. The dishwasher is full of dirty dishes and I really don't feel like washing dishes in the bathtub!

b - smart start, banana
s - won't ahppen
l, s, d - ???? I miss my kitchen already!!!

Not sure about a WO - maybe cardio or a circuit. Depends how I'm feeling. RIght now this preggo needs to EAT!!!
 
Good morning ladies!! Sorry I did not post yesterday, but I'm sure you are all well aware of what I was doing (which, by the way, was not nearly as fun as sitting on the internet!).

Things are going really really well. We got up and starting moving again about 630 am yesterday, and had all of the stuff at Chris' and unloaded by about 9 am. Chris had to go to work so I started cleaning the fridge, pantry, unpacking boxes. I stopped about noon to rest and shower, then the new living room furniture arrived around 3. I LOVE it, SO COMFY, but I think we ordered too much!! The LR is a bit cramped! Also, it looks kind of ugly in the LR cause the new furniture is a taupe color, carpet is beige, entertainment center is wood, and walls are brownish. I cannot wait to paint in here (the color I picked is ORANGE!) and get some colorful accents so it doesn't look so blah. Anyway, the furniture is sooooooo comfortable. After the furniture arrived, I unpacked all of my Cathe's and equipment and put them in my "corner", and then we moved on the upstairs. We did Collin's room (hung pictures, washed new sheets, made the bed, hung pictures, unpacked clothes, etc.) His room is mostly done now (except for the junk that needs to go to the attic). We also did the master bath -- scrubbed the shower, cleaned out drawers, cleaned out the cabinet, unpacked toiletries and shower stuff. We also cleaned out the linen closet. Finally I unpacked all of my clothes into our dresser.

Now we are headed off to Lowes for a few things, then to my (old) house for a few more things, then the grocery store. There is certainly more to be done, but I just need this house to be liveable until it is the weekend again!

Kate, funny story about the "potion."
Robin, take another cheat meal! I kwym about being cheated out of your cheat meal!
Colleen, sorry you have to work!
Shirl, hope you had fun with scrapbooking!
Steph, hope you are having a good weekend!

I will check back soon, I swear!!
 
WOW Katie you got alot done, good for you. You have only a cornor for cathe stuff ;-) are you sure it's only a cornor? :D

I came home from food shopping and the quality of veggies and fruit is sooooo much better in Long Island. I'm going to go back to eating fish 3 times per week b/c I've read that omega3 is great for joints.

I plan to cook tonight baked fish and veggies.

Kate did you pre-view the new workout?

Hey Colleen Steph and Jenn what's new?
 
Hi Everyone,

Kate, so sorry about your drainage problems! Hope you can find good food eating out.
Robin, I am glad your In the Ring is on its way. I guess Amy just got backlogged.
Jenn, glad you and DH had a good talk. It sounds like you definitely need a date night.
Katie, I don't ever want to move again. Last we moved I got frustrated because I was unpacking all day and it didn't seem like I made a dent in the boxes.
Shirl, how was scrapbooking?
Steph, how is your weekend?

no workout - rest day
b: shredded wheat w/ almonds
l: leftovers
s: fruit
d: chicken suizas bake

I am still really congested today so I am going to try to take it easy. I didn't do any of my work yesterday since I fell asleep. I guess I am just exhausted. I hope I get my sinuses to drain soon.Otherwise I am going to try either acupuncture or go to the chiro. I know going to the chiro will help but I heard acupuncture is really good too.

Have a great day everyone!

Colleen
 
Happy Sunday peeps!

Sorry i was MIA yesterday, had my malt ball enjoyment, then got really sick! Diarrheamax and barfmax...dont know what that means, i hope it makes me hate the malt balls, but i doubt it!

DH and i are just running off to Ikea, Friday, dog peed on the new carpet, and tore a blind down....Stephanie, not happy!!

Katie, moving sucks! i was thinking about you yesterday!
Kate, busy weekend huh! I surprised Christian by not yelling at him all day Saturday, lol :)
Shirl, Colleen, carb addicted huh...can i join that checkin, lol. Since i upped my fats, i'm never hungry! that could be the answer for you as well.
Robin, i hope your Amy comes, i've never had smores, but damn i want to!
Jenn, so glad to hear!

DH has the car running, BBL!
Steph
 
Robin, I wish I liked fish more. No one else in the house even remotely likes it so I hate to make it.

Colleen, Good luck w/ getting rid of the crud. Have you ever done the salt water thing?

Steph, Too bad on the malt balls! I had one out of the bulk section of the grocery store a couple weeks ago. Man, are they good! I sneak one every now and then at the store now! shhhhhh! Hope your Ikea trip is good - getting new blinds!?

Lunch out was okay - soup and salad were clean...mozzarella sticks were not. I rationalized it that Baby needed the calcium! But there's just no way to njustify the glazed donut I had at my moms this afteroon! Oopsie!

I'm kinda scared to WO today - I don't want to feel sick again like I did post-WO y'day! Maybe just some CS....
