Good Morning Everyone!:)

How is everyone? I wasn't around much yesterday, I had way to much on my plate, but I did get alot done and I think I needed more sleep then what I got.I did manage to get the dogs out for a nice walk.It was such a nice day and I think they knew it!

So...my furniture didn't get delivered until 5 in the evening..which I found out earlier in the day.My friend was here with me when we ripped the boxes open:7 and of course we came across a damaged piece:-( The headboard was cracked in the middle.I called them to tell them this, plus they had dropped off a night stand that I didn't order as well.Anyway...the sales lady wanted to know if I could hold off until Mon for my new piece.Now..mind you my house as been in shables for the last 5 days waiting for this furniture,plus I wanted to sleep in my new bed!!LOL I didn't get nasty or anything but she got the point that I wanted my headboard to-day! and of course...I got what I wanted! LOL
DH and I put it together yesterday evening,it is a beautiful set but with the box spring and matress on the bed...the bed is soooooo high, its nuts! The dog looks small next to the bed and Chico doesn't look small next to anything.Its crazy how big they are making things these days.Do you think its b/c everyone is getting bigger? Our couch could fit 5 normal size people on it.
We also went to Wal-Mart last night and bought a new comforter for our bed.Its really nice and I am glad the dogs can't jump up on the bed anymore b/c I don't want to see a dog hair on it!

Anyway...sorry so long! I took a pic last night of DH on the bed.I should upload it so everyone can see how big this thing is!
And my eating was awful yesterday..and this is why I am up so early to workout, I also want to go for a run after work tonight.
Catch ya later!
Lori:)
 
Ooooohhh Lori, a sleigh bed. Very cool! I think they are so elegant looking! :) I know what you mean about high beds. Everything they make today is made for a tall person I think! LOL

I'm up earlier than I wanted to be...I am starting to really feel better but a coughing fit got me out of bed early this morning. I am tempted to try a weight work out today but not sure I want to push it. I waited this long...I'm thinking I should just wait a bit longer.

Okay, well I'm gonna go peruse the threads while I drink my coffee!:9

TTYL!:)
 
Good Morning Miss Wendy!:+
Glad to hear you are feeling better!Bout time, I'd say. I guess the bed would be more for a tall person cause a big person would have a hell of a time getting up on that bed.DH looked pretty cozy when I left,I think he is enjoying the it!

I did a short workout earlier.Got 1/2 of BC in and a 20 min run.Still hoping to go for a run later, again, another beautiful day here!

Lori:)
 
Yeah, this is my weekend to work, plus I took OT shifts next weekend so I will be working the next 3 weekends:-( But like I have said a million x's, Im sure I won't care after I get my pay check! LOL. I am on day shifts though, which means early rises but atleast I can do things in the evening.Tonight I am going to a friends house to meet another friends hubby to be.And we are going to have nachos and wings:eek: Now do you know why i want to get another workout in before I go over there? And I am hoping to get to bed early tonight as well.I went to bed at 10:30 last night and got up at 5:40...so that was 7 hours sleep, not to bad!
Lori:)
 
Nachos and wings tonight....YUM...well, atleast on the nacho front...I'm not a fan of wings.

So why didn't you jump in on the Rochester GTG? How far of a trip would it be for you? How about a trip to NYC in late summer? We are going to try to plan a GTG then!:)

Don't have too much fun at work!:p
 
Hello Ladies!!

Well, I survived my wisdom teeth. I am a bit achy, but not to bad. The meds really help for the pain. The hardest part was not being able to drink coffee yesterday morning. I have not made any yet, but I am on my way!!! I do have a little bit of trouble swallowing, but I still feel okay. I have to take an antibiotic, which I am not crazy about. I am taking a probiotic with it. (you should too, Wendy!!)Have any of you heard awful things about antibiotics? I know they help with infections and such, but they kill the good bacteria also. Therefore, an overgrowth of fungus and build up in your body. So, Wendy, eat some yogurt with me!! It puts the good bacteria back in your body.

Lori, your bed looks great! I love the bedspread! Did you get it at Wal-Mart? I am looking for a new one.

Well, that is about it. I am not working out today, or the rest of the weekend. I might go for a walk of something a little later. It feels nice enough for that. I don't want to push it though. I can't really eat too much. I have only had a sweet potato and a tiny piece of cheesecake. I might try some oatmeal for breakfast. I am starving!!! I will prob take Charlotte's advice and drink some protien shakes. I just need something to take the edge off of the hunger.

Talk Later,

Sara

Good Morning Sara.

Glad to hear you are not fairing badly after having your teeth pulled! Yogurt, huh? I used to eat it like crazy! I think I over-did it cause now I RARELY eat it...I'm sick of it! LOL Maybe I'll pick some up over the weekend. I really should go food shopping anyway but since I got sick I just haven't had it in me...
 
Wendy, you totally lost me with all those questions.I have no clue what you are talking about.Were you talking to me? I think those meds have gone to your head:p

Sara, yeah,I bought the comforter at wal mart but it wasn't cheap.The most I have ever paid for one.Its was 160 for the comforter,pillow shams and bed skirt.I put the bed skirt on but wasn't sure if I liked it so I took it off.But I don't want people to see the matress either, so I think I will iron the skirt and put it on.I was telling DH that the dogs aren't aloud on it, this of course, being before we put the bed together and realized the dogs probably can't get up there:eek: There was another one I liked at walmart but I didn't know if it was to old lady like...LOL But DH liked it more then the one I bought.I knew it was going to look nice in a yellow room and a dark bed...he thought it looked like Santas cape.:) He likes it now though.
Of course...I was right again!
Lori:)
 
> Then what were you talking about...and no abbreviations this
>time!;-)

Key:
GTG=get together
NYC=New York City

So why didn't you jump in on the Rochester GTG? How far of a trip would it be for you? How about a trip to NYC in late summer? We are going to try to plan a GTG then!


:p
 
Alright, you are talking about a GET TOGETHER? Did you forget I was boycotted from the thread most of the week.I have no clue whats going on around here:+

It would be a long and expensive trip for me.It would be more expensive then long.From here to Ontario is 3.5 hours flight, not included lay overs so I guess from Ontario to NY wouldn't be that long, maybe an hour.Either way, not in the cards right now.Not to mention..I don't really know you gals that well and I don't want to end up in the bottom of a lake somewhere:+ :7
Lori:)
 
> Oh aren't you sweet!
>

That's me!:+

What are you worried about? You can swim, can't you? If we threw you in the river it would be in the name of fitness! We'd be testing your fitness level as you swim back to land! :7 :7 :7
 
Good Morning Girls!!!

My, you all are a bunch of yacky's this morning!

Sara,

Glad to hear your doing well. Yes, drink those protein shakes!

Wendy,

You sound like your doing better, and good to hear it.

Lori,

You are a nut!

Where is everyone else?

Woke up this morning to a itchy rash on my face. WTH? I was outside mowing yesterday, but I need to be careful with this. Seems like if I get a zit or something...ends up turning into a scar, etc. So ya'll can just call me "Rosie" today! I did get some sun too which I didn't try to do. Found a black widow spider in our garage. First time ever seen one. Yes, it is dead now! LOL!

I decided not to take the job at the Outfitters place. There is just too much that falls on me here at home during the day. I will just be making it hard on myself when I can work in the evening somewhere instead. I need an evening job, not day job. Everyone wants everything around here..hubby wants the veggie garden, son wants his mom, etc. Got enough jobs during the day. Maybe that is what the rash is from? Not sure really! I just decided that I don't want to be stressed.

So yesterday I did a challenge circuit and I went up in weights again for some parts and also did some plyo's. Today I will do PUB (down) and then I will be doing a interval run.

Charlotte~~
 
I can't swim with bricks tied to my neck!:) I checked it out for fun and on AirCanada, it would cost me $1793! Ouch!
Lori:)
 
Charlotte, if that rash doesn't clear up by Monday you should get it checked out! I'll bet, though, that it might be stress-related! Hope you find the job you want soon! I need to start seriously looking myself but I keep putting it off...x(
