Hey ladies!

How y'all doin' this morning?

I fear it has gotten cold again in NJ!x( I was likin' the super mild weather we were having!!!

What's up with everyone today?

I have to do cardio today. I'll pick which one when I get to it...

Off to get my first cup of coffee!:9
 
Hi Wendy! Sorry your chickies have deserted you - probably still in bed on this cold morning.

I"ve been up since 6:30ish. I had 5 auctions going on e-bay and I sold everything. So I just got finished boxing everything up and now I"m waiting to get paid for the items so I can go to the post office. I made a whopping $43. Back when I was pregnant w/my first son I thought I was going to be super mom and use cloth diapers. Well that lasted about a week. HA! So that is what I sold on e-bay.

I haven't exercised in over a week since my fall. I"m going to try the elliptical this weekend and slowly ease back into thing.

Just wanted to pop in and say hi since you were all alone here.

Have a great day! :p
 
Hello, sorry it took me so long to get on this morning! Dan and I were going over our Christmas lists for family and kids. BTW, I did end up ordering him a Peyton Manning jersey. I am going to get a plain white t-shirt and get puff paint and make the shirt I told you about yesterday. Pink and purple puff paint. }( }( }( }( }(

I don't know what I am going to get my mom and siblings. I am at a complete loss there. My mom has everything, as does my youngest sister. My brother is a college student, and I have no clue what he would like. Do you have any ideas? Any suggestions would be great. I was thinking a box of condoms as a gag since he finally has a girlfriend. Something tells me that might be tacky, though. :+

Today is my off day, but I may do Imax 2 for some long cardio since I am in the mood. That may change by the time little Logan, who is now opening doorx( , goes down for a nap. There is nothing stopping him now!!!!

Dana, I tried to be that mom too. I didn't like it much! :p You know that there is this scienties experimenting with the get in diapers to slow down hurricanes? Can you imagine all that gel in the ocean? :eek: What fall are we talking about here? Are you okay?

Missy
 
Good morning Wendy, Dana, and Missy,

Wendy--I know why you're up so early posting---it's all that java!! You're buzzed and up way too early--LOL!

Dana--I love ebay! I bought a bunch of back issues of my favorite magazine that had stopped publication a few years ago. It was fun. I love those bidding wars!

Missy--I think the T-shirt is going to be great. You'll have to post a pic of your DH wearing it. How about giving your brother a gift card to some stores like Target or Walmart? He can use those for whatever he wants, and the town where he's going to college is sure to have one or both of those stores. Phone cards are always nice.

Hey--didn't you guys notice my picture trail!?

Oh--w/o--I haven't decided yet:eek:

Michele
 
Michele, we want to see pictures of you and your husband!!! You must post some soon!

That tree is so beautiful. Wow... you got that antiquing? It is absolutely gorgeous! And bravo for figuring out how to get picture trail up and running! It isn't as easy as everyone keeps telling me it is. :p

Missy
 
I just posted 2 more pics of my antiques!!

Missy, I don't have a pic of me or my DH to post. The picutres I posted were taken over a year ago when I borrowed a digital camera. I wanted to use a picture of my tree for a Christmas card but, as you can see, the pictures I took were not of a quality that I would use for a card. Pinky gave me some good suggestions though for a better backdrop. I need to get a digital camera--if I do, I'll post pictures. I happened to take a few pictures of my antiques at the same time that I was shooting my tree.

Michele
 
Hello again.

Dana, I just started selling on Ebay. I've been thinking about doing it since I was pregnant and just got up the nerve a week or so ago! LOL

Missy, I never even CONSIDERED cloth diapers! NO WAY! LOL My sister did it though. She actually used them for her first 2 kids with a diaper service and everything! She finally gave in and made the switch to disposable when # 3 came along.

Michele, your pieces that you have posted so far are wonderful. Your house must look like a museum! Very classy! :)

Put Joey down for a nap a few minutes ago. Once he falls asleep I'll be off doing RS. Until then I will probably fart around on the forums some more...:)
 
Thank you, Wendy,

I love antiques and I try to buy 1 or 2 nice pieces a year--so it's pretty slow going. My home is decorated in Colonial American style but I have a loooooong way to go! I have whole rooms that are empty. No matter--I'm not in a hurry. I really enjoy the process. I may have 1 or 2 more pictures I can put up--I'm just not sure where I save them on my computer--LOL!

What are you selling on ebay and what's you ID?

Michele
 
OMG, Michele those are BEAUTIFUL works of art!!!! Amazing! I have a friend from France and he has all of these family hierlooms from the 1700's and onward, so you can imagine how expensive and sentimental value they have. Beautiful creations and so detailed, just amazing! They have armoirs, mirrors, 200 year old sitting chairs, champagne glasses, art, just amazing!!!

I bet that you can get digital cameras for cheap now, they have been out for so long. The one I bought my husband four years ago is only 60$ now, and at the time I shelled out over 360. Phew.

Pinky is so awesome, isn't she? She has an amazing eye and is just so creative and cerebral.

Missy
 
Thank you Missy! I know, I just need to go out and buy a camera. I think when you don't have kids or photography isn't your hobby, it's an item that tends to get pushed to the bottom of the WANT list--LOL!

Michele

P.S. I may have another picture or 2 to put up if I can locate them in my computer files. God only knows whrer I saved them. I'm a nightmare!
 
Hi Michelle.

You are quite welcome!:)

I'm "crazy4cardio" on Ebay. Right now I just have one exercise video up called "Breakthru Pilates Sculpt". I sold 2 others last week-they were my first auctions I put up. I have a bunch of exercise vids that I'll probably put up plus a bunch of other assorted stuff that I don't want but is still in great shape or brand new even! I am doing only 1 or 2 things at a time right now until I get used to the process and "fine-tune" everything. It takes time to list your items and it's a lot to think about! No wonder I kept putting it off! There is actually WORK involved in doing this! LOL :p

Okay, DS is quiet up there...time for RS!

BBL!}(
 
Good Day Ladies,:)

I have been awake for an hour or so but just getting to the computer. In my defense, I worked last night so thats why Lori was not on the forum yet.She wasn't being lazy...just beauty sleep, thats all:)
Im feeling better today but geez...I don't think they make coffee any bigger then a x-lg.I could easily be sipping on another coffee right now.My chest is not so sore today so I am going to atempt cardio and see how it goes.I am going to run on the treadmill and do a circuit workout also.Maybe BC.
DH took over the business today so its an exciting day for him.I am surprised I am not more excited, I think it is b/c I am working and I am not up there with everyone else.I am going to be working on Sat for a while though.I think it will be fun learning everything.
Must get more workout clothes on.
Lori:)
 
Lori Lori Lori...It's about time you showed up! Working all nite is just no excuse for not being on this forum at 7am sharp this morning! :p

Michele, lol, you are sooo cute! You sound like a kid having fun with a new toy! I will continue to check your trail for more pics! ENJOY! :+
 
Hey Wendy--I found your ebay listing. I bookmarked you as a favorite seller. I'll keep an eye on your auctions. I'll be happy to bid on anything if I need it.:)

Hey Lori--Welcome to the land of the living miss sleepyhead!

Michele
 
Blah, blah, blah ...you guys are a big torn in my side!:p :p :p I told you...its all about the beauty sleep.Do you think I look like this and not get any sleep? Its all about the sleep baby!:) I heard something funny one time..and I don't know where.Something about, you don't need much sleep now b/c you will have time to sleep when your dead.True.

Just finished my workout.I did 6 seg of BC and a 30 min run.I didn't want to over do it but it felt awesome and I wasn't in any pain but I didn't want to undo the healing that happened WHILE I WAS A SLEEP!:)

To-dol-lou
Lori:)
 
There you are, Lori babe! I hope that you got plenty of rest. I was going to do some cardio, but when Logan went down for his nap I just crashed. I couldn't sleep but I curled up on the couch and started reading Pride and Prejudice. Oh, how I love that book!!! Anyhow, it is ANOTHER yucky day here. That makes five days straight with no sun. At least it snowed this morning! The kids had a blast at the bus stop! They really are little angels. Each week they do different chores, either helping me clean the kitchen or vaccuuming and cleaning the living and dining room. This week it is Mariah's turn to help me in the kitchen and we have had the most amazing talks. I really like her. You know that you always love your kids no matter what, but sometimes you don't like them because of personality clashes or whatever, but I really like Mariah. She is so funny and eager to please and help. I am finding out more about the boy that she likes! Dan doesn't want to hear anything about that, though}( He says that he is her only boyfriend, and always will be.:D

Anyways, take it easy everyone! And Michele, those antiques are just absolutely gorgeous! You are becoming what I was a couple of months ago! It is easy to get hooked, isn't it? You just want to keep adding more and more and more!!!

Missy
 
Well, Michele, Lori and Missy...I did the 3 step combos of RS today. YIKES, I was tripping all over myself during combo 3! That's when I decided that the CHALLENGE was NOT happening! LOL :p It was fun...only my 2nd attempt and only did combos 1 and 2 last time so I've caught on quite well considering...:)

Hope everyone is having a pleasant evening...DS is down for his evening nap so I should be around some over the next couple of hours. DH went bowling so it's quiet here-just me and the dog!:+
