HATE - July 20

August

Yesterday's work was TOO long and all I could think about was going home to be with my squirrels!

I have to figure out my daily schedule now that things are getting a little more settled with everyone here. It's like I get up, we play, I feed them, I eat, we play, they rest and I attempt to massage them or touch them, they wake, we play,...and the cycle goes on like this.

Did you notice any workout in there?

I didn't either. http://bestsmileys.com/innocent/2.gif

But I think I'm ready to get back on the rotation. So long as the squirrels don't mind LOL. http://bestsmileys.com/expressions/10.gif

So come Monday, I'm going to start up again. Maybe I'll start up a rotation that is arms, legs, abs.

Did you notice any cardio in there?

I didn't either. http://bestsmileys.com/innocent/2.gif

All right. Off I go.........to see how Oogi is doing.


ROBIN - I can't imagine how it will be when Mooch and Cham sleep on the couch all day, and not spaz out. I'm exhausted! LOL. And they're starting to get tired of the regular games, so now I'm having to be a little imaginative. We found a good one called It's Under the Door : It's MINE! Now they keep going back to the door to peek under it to see if the Snakey is still hanging out there for them to play with.

MICHELE - How is your arm feeling? Are you done packing? Don't respond. Rest your Wii elbow. Damaging it any more will make for difficult future game wins LOL. Anyway, I hope you have a marvelous time in the mildew!

DIANE - Did you finish the project? Can you relax over the weekend?

JENNIFER - Wow, I'll bet the mouse was P'Od, LOL. My guys just got here about two weeks ago, oh wait, two weeks ago to the day! And they're just in the Play+Sleep+Eat - Snuggle = August Is A Slave mode. I can't believe how fast the day goes taking care of these squirrels, and yet I hate to be away from them even to go get groceries! (Types a grocery-less August...)

JEN - You must be sensitive to the heat for you appetite to be so out of whack. I hope you're slipping in a few leaves of green and maybe a little fruit in there for good measure.

So cute about CJ. I was born into a family of cats : a grandma (who was a stray my Mom found), her daughter and her daughter, so all three of them were like my older sisters and I grew up with them. They were totally just members of my family, and we would sleep together and watch TV together and eat dinner together and have our piano lessons together. They were indoor/outdoor cats, so when they'd be out when it was time for my bedtime, I'd go out to the yard and play a tune I'd made up on a little whistle I had. And sure enough in about five or ten minutes, they'd come home, ready to go to bed with me. I miss them soooo much. They were fantastic sisters and they took really good care of me.



Where the heck is Dana?!


All right, the squirrels are asleep near me so now I must visit Oogi before I am summoned for the next task.

Have a great weekend and see you next week!
 
August,

I love the cat that you have on the top of your post, it reminds me of my cats chasing a fly around the house and trying to nab it. Congrats on your new roomies!! It's hard to be gone when they're home. Yep, the poor mouse ending up dying in my kitchen right next to their water dish.Them, outside to the crows. My cats came home from the Humane Society two years ago on July 28th, I celebrate their homecoming more than their birthdays since Seville, the Alpha cat, is more than a day older than Madrid.

Jen, drink plenty of water and don't overdue it.

Michele-Hope you're feeling better soon.

It sounds like the 4 Day Split is coming soon, alot quicker than expected. Time to crank up those workouts.

Have a Great Weekend!
 
Jennifer, I love the names of your cats. Is there a story there?

August, nope, I didn't see any work out in that list of chores you posted. Good luck working out with the help of 2 kittens.

I'm all packed and ready for vacation. Only 8 hours of work and a 9 hour drive to get through. Tomarrow afternoon I hope to be relaxing on the beach. I don't know if I'll be around much in the next 10 days, but try to carry on with out me. I'm taking about 4 cardio DVD's and my band to my SIL's, so I'm sure I'll fit in a couple workouts, and I'll think of all of you when I'm sweating.

ETA: Jen, I love the kitty picture.

Dana, I'll be getting home on your birthday and don't want to miss it, so Happy Birthday early.
 
Morning haters!

August, here I am, here I am!!!!! Work here is so crazy I can't take it. I have so much freakin' crap to do that I don't know if I"ll be finished before school resumes. (which is on Aug 28) I am ususally busy in the summertime but this is the busiest I've ever been in the summer and I think this is my 6th or 7th summer here. I was telling Gabe about your new kitties and he said, "she lives in Asia right?". I never told him that you lived in Asia. Japan is in Asia right? LOL duh!!!! I am no good with Geography. I guess he must be paying attention in school to know that. He wants a cat so bad but of course my DH claims he is allergic to cats. I don't know if he really is. His main thing is he hates pet hair. Oh well, deal with it!!!! OK, I"ll make a deal with you. I need to get back in the swing of things so I"ll start back up with you on Monday. Whatta you say???

Robin - how sweet of you to remember my upcoming birthday. Can I go with you on vacation??? I'll just hide in the truck til we get there??? Have a wonderful time!!!

Jenninfer - HI!!! I don't think I said hello to you? So HI!!!! I hate cardio and believe me, it shows!!! HA!!! I haven't worked out in ages and I really, really need to get back to it.

Michele - I know you're not reading this but have fun at the cabin!!!

Hi JEN!!!!! I feel like I haven't talked to you in "forever". Guess b/c we post at different times of the day!!!

Dianee - yeah, did you finish your project? Have a great weekend.

Shelley - HIYA!!!!! What are you up to this weekend? You always have such interesting stuff planned.

What are you all doing this weekend? My DH left yesterday for the races so we are going over there tonight. Probably sleeping over and then me and the boys are going over to my mom's for lunch. Wed was my Granny's b-day so she is having her over for lunch. Then back to the races. I made myself a list of what needs to be done at my house so I'm hoping to have everything cleaned up by 6:00 so we can leave.

Talk to you all later!
 
Morning Haters.

Happy Birthday, Dana!! Caught it on a previous thread.

Dana-Hello and nice to meet you.

Robin-My cats names were insprired by my exchange student-daughter from Seville (pronounced Sa-V-ah)feminine so I took the masculine from Italy. Some of her friends were from Madrid (which is masculine). Julia (Who-lee-ah)came to visit me the day after I put Adrian down (my cat of 16 years) and was with me on my journey to find these boys. I didn't tell her the names until the night before cause I didn't know her reaction but Julia loved the names but didn't get a chance to meet Seville and Madrid.

Shelley-Hello. Have a Great Weekend.
 
Nope I still have to get my project finished today. My boss doesn't need it until tomorrow (she apparently wants to read it while she is flying on a plane somewhere - and I promise you she won't read a dang thing and all my effort to get it to her in time will be for nothing. She always does everything so last minute...)

But I stayed late last night and got a lot of it done, so if all goes well, I should be able to get out of work at a normal time and not have to stay late today.

Okay, back to work.
 
I finished my project and turned it in!!! At at 2 pm no less.

I still have about 5 other briefs to write in the next two weeks, but at least one of them is off of my desk for the moment.

I have a big deadline August 6th, then I should have pretty smooth sailing after that. My next deadline is not until Sept. 17th, so I will have over a month to finish it! So the rest of the pregnancy my work should be more managemenable!!

Anyway, sorry I was just so excited.
