Hey Kathy!
And whoever stops by this weekend too!
SJP is a great workout today, Kathy. Though did you do LIC yesterday?
OMG, I love Cathe's FEB Rotation this month. It's very cool. If her March Rotation doesn't entice me, I may do FEB over again.
Today is supposed to be MMA Boxing. It's been a long week here. With my icky cold/sinus thing, and the boys home all week and wearing me down emotionally with the fighting and crazies... I'm so tired. And then of course, the daunting working weekend upon me. I guess I'll see what I feel like when we get back from delivering newspapers this am.
Joanne; SOOOO sorry to hear you're still having trouble with your eye. It must be frustrating and scary!! I'm jealous of your 3 lbs lost, though. It almost makes me want to take a total rest week and see if *I* can lose 3 lbs! I'm running in to the same problems I have for years... I eat 200 extra calories a day, and it drives the scale up. It's very frustrating.
Okay...off to deliver papers... with 2 fighting loud boys!

I'm baaaaack!! Howdy. Sorry to be so absent. I tried reading/posting with my blackberry, but the Cathe site just doesn't seem to be very berry-friendly. I typed a bunch with my thumbs and when I went to post it kept asking me for a title, and even when I filled in that title field, it still asked. Frustrating! Reading didn't work so well because they don't fit it to the small screen, so there's lots of scrolling involved. Still getting used to that thing.
Joanne, so sorry about your eye! I don't know if you said or not, but how long will this go and what's next?
Kathy, I saw your pictures -- looks like you had a fantastic time! That's great. We didn't take any pictures with our camera -- I took just a few with the berry. Don't know if I can figure out how to post!
I skied three days and tried to do some pushups and other things here and there, but working out was tough this morning! I did a kbell workout just to be different. I'm happy to be getting back into the swing of it. I wondered how you were liking the rotation, Chris, after reading one of your posts this week -- cool that you are enjoying it so much. So your kids had this last week off, too?
I'm on my fifth load of laundry, with at least three more to go..... lots to do today..... have a good one!

Kathy: Oh yes! that's right you did KB yesterday!
Beth: Welcome back!! Missed ya!!! I'm so looking forward to next week getting back into the real swing of things with the boys in school. I mean, it was nice to kick back and not have homework wars, and get up late (7a!) , but , the weather is horrible and this inside all day and night totally sucked the life right out of me.
Bummer we can't see ski pictures!!!
So I didn't work out, and I'm not working out today. Papers were miserable, the 2 boys fought horribly over everything they could find to fight over. And then I came home, and the Sunday sitter (busy-body, gambler, older lady) , called to be paid in advance. Oh-my-gawd! I'm done. Emotionally drained this week. And this put the frosting on the cake. I told her to forget it this week, I'd ask my mom. I can't take her crap, I can't. She has an addiction, and frankly, I'm not so sure she's safe taking care of my kids. SO I'm going to pick up my mom tomorrow after work.
Zach has a friend here. Alex has a friend here (the one that went home sick on Tuesdays sleepover, is apparently "all better"). And guess what? I poured myself a glass of wine. I totally needed something to relax me, I was very very wound up.
I'm better now! And maybe on the slight side of tipsy, which probably isn't so great, but better. Maybe I'll call in drunk to work tonight! LOLOL!!!!!

Oh man, Chris -- what a day! What a week!! You do need to find yourself a new sitter!! Isn't that the lady you paid in advance a couple of weeks ago and then she cancelled?
LaundryMax continues here...... just got done vacuuming, need to clean the car, etc. I feel so behind...... but I needed a break!

Beth: Glad you are back..I missed everyone while gone too. Happy you had a good time. I have never been skiing. But, it sounds like you had a great time. I think I did just as many loads. I was really tired of laundry after Thursday morning!
Chris: Hate to hear you have sitter problems. I am sure it is hard to find someone to trust with the kids. That is one of the reason we hardly go anywhere without the kids. We wait until special events and ask friends or we wait until we have family to babysit. Soon Lauren will be old enough to be left alone. Not sure I trust them alone together. They might do damage to each other.HAHA Enjoy your wine break!!
Just finished with SJP..Lauren has choir practice tonight and they are singing at the 5:30 mass. So, after lunch and a shower we will be headed there..
Talk to you later...

Exactly, Beth. She canceled and then when I asked her for the money back, she told me that it wasn't THAT much money, and inferred that I was rude asking for it back. Come to find out, she asked for it early to gamble (right after she picked it up) and lost it all. So she could not pay me back. (She admitted this later).
I had this long conversasion with her later in the week about how she's lost a lot of family and friends because they won't lend her money. But she felt that gambling was FUN for her, and she doesn't "drink, smoke or do evil things" so she was going to do what she enjoyed. Wow.
I am done with HER.
She lost yet another relationship due to her "enjoyment in life".
I'm still chillin from the wine. I probably should eat something!
Laundrymax is done for the week for me. I now get to go play with bleach in the bathroom (I have this odd love for the smell of bleach)

Hey Chris, have you tried Tilex Mold & Mildew spray? I used it for the first time right before we left town. It works great! I'm sure one ingredient must be bleach.
Kathy, I know what you mean about the laundry! (I say as my eyes glaze over from another load).
Chris, I hope work is better than your week has been! I think you are smart to be done with that gambler lady!!

I have not tried that before, Beth... does it smell like bleach!? (aahhh!!!)
I actually used my Scunci steam cleaner yesterday in the bathroom. It's an AWESOME cleaning machine, i love it to bits! It gets all the "gunk" out behind things and inside the nooks and crannies around the toilets and fixtures. I was just bleaching today to freshen up!
One friend gone, the other still here, but they are OUTSIDE!!! YAY!!!!

Good morning, sleepyheads!!!
Yes, Chris, it smells like bleach, and in fact, thank goodness I was wearing an old shirt when I used it -- I sprayed it up at the ceiling to take care of mold (I'd heard it worked for that) and I noticed later that the color is out of the shirt in one spot! Took care of the mold with no wiping required though -- can't beat that!
I did Bum Bum and High and Tight this morning -- both BBL workouts. Bum Bum is the one with the strong cardio effect, and boy oh boy, my being sick and away for skiing really got me out of shape cardio-wise. I really struggled this morning. I noticed it yesterday with the kbell workout, too. Ug. Oh well...... I'm going to have a broken butt later, for sure. Hottie, are you out there????
I'm taking the kids to see Cirque du Soleil this afternoon -- an end of the week off treat for all of us. Larry had no interest. In the meantime, lots to do!
How was work, Chris? Waves all around! Have a great day.

I'm an idiot! It was such a pain getting the tix printed with our internet woes, we didn't get much done just waiting to leave for the show, we're finally in the car and I have Travis double check the tix and guess what? They're for March 21!!! Doh!! Much disappointment here.
So, now we're trying to figure out how to watch the americans vs. canadians hockey game. Larry went out and bought an antenna yesterday, but alas, we only get cbs and fox.

Just a quickie "HI GIRLS"...
Had a decent night at work last night. Hope for another tonight! SOOOO happy it's monday tomorrow AND my boys will be back in school. It was a tough week, ending with a tough day (the boys fought like crazy for my poor mom who watched them today). *sigh*
Tomorrow, LAST week of the FEB Rotation! I've really really enjoyed this one!
have a good night, girls!
