Good Morning gals,

I put this off b/c I knew wendy was around and I thought she might start it first...but NO! She couldn't do that could she?!;)
I was suppose to work the day shift today but my co-worker wanted to switch so I am working the night shift.Doesn't really bother me though.
Today is just a run and majorly cleaning up my diet! Sometimes I feel like the Good Year blip! Just one big tub of goo.I should look like a rock star with all the exercise I do...but no...can't keep my pie hole shut.;( Anyway...just watch, magic trick comming your way.It called "the shrinking Lori"!

Lori

:)
 
Oh Lori you full of it today, aren't you? :p :7 :p

I've been workin' hard on that magic trick for myself...maybe once we have both perfected it we can take our "show" on tour! lol

I have to call our old wireless company today. We switched over to new companies and ofcourse, they are trying to nail us with an early termination fee yet we didn't change over until probably a solid week after our contract was fulfilled! x(

I start the November rotation today. I am looking forward to it...especially after the way I ate Saturday night and yesterday! :eek:
 
We could...we can tour all of North America if you wish.
Not only that but I have a crack in one corner of my mouth and a pimple on the other!x( And it hurts;( I think its from shoving food into my mouth:eek: ;)
Honestly, eating for me as not been terrible.I just feel like my metobolism is on "turtle".It barely moving anymore.And I eat plently so its not that.Oh..Im gonna have some fun years ahead of me.
I hate it when I get stuck with charges to.We once had a Mazda that we leased and when we got rid of it they owed us the last monthes payemt.So in my first conversation they said there was a check issued.Second conversation we owed them money (don't know how that happened) and until they got their money, we weren't getting ours.Thrid conversation, they didn't owe us any money.Finally Dh dropped it b/c everytime we called we could get someone who spoke little english and he could'nt understand what he was saying.We were out $400 and b/c of this we will never buy another mazda again.
Lori:)
 
Everyone's out to rip someone off. It sucks.x( I think the wireless company throws those early termination charges at people when they aren't legit just to see if anyone is dumb enough to just pay it. I'm sure there are people who do and they ruin it for the rest of us b/c now I gotta call and sit on hold for 3 days to get the charge reveresed :-( ...they better not try to say it's legit either or I'll have to open up a can of Cathe-style whoop a$$ on them!}( ;) }(

Coffee # 1 down...one more (atleast) to go!
I'll be back!:)
 
Only 1 more? I thought you had 10 cups in the morning:eek: ;) In that case, I drink more then you do.

I think in all situations someone ruins it for someone.Thats just the way the world works.
I also don't get when you pay off a loan in full, you have to pay a charge.We paid off a loan the other day that still had a few monthes on it and a week later $30 came out of the bank account and thats what it was for.The last thing banks want anyone to do is pay off loans, I guess.
Lori:)
 
I've never had a loan that charged you after you paid it off but I know in the USA with a mortgage or a home equity, there IS a charge to cancel the mortgage with the county and that charge can be about $30 give or take...

Hmmmmmm....the sounds of coffee brewing! :9
I drink lots of coffee through out the day...I don't smash it all into a 2 hour window! LOL So I probably DO drink more than you but I space it out from the time I get up until the moment my head hits the pillow.:) I, do, however, drink it in much smaller portions than you do.:p

I have to go to the bank today. I have to do laundry. I have to clean up around the house...I tend to be a slacker on the weekends as I consider it my "time off" with everyone else and so the house suffers some.:eek: I will be getting lazy boy outta bed soon. I plan to exercise later on when he goes down for a nap anyway.
 
Im probably done for the day with the coffee.I can function after I have had my first one.But I had flavouring in mine today (irish cream ) and it was yummy...which is making me want more.
I think I am going to have to take the dogs out for a bit.In my family room I have leather chairs and thats where they play and one of these days I see a dog nail ripping through the back of my couch!It will break my heart! But the puppy wants to play and keeps biting on Chicos tail.This time I will dress warmer.
I don't have alot to do today.I did some laundry already and its in the dryer now.But thats about it.
I have to remember to watch the Tyra Banks show today b/c she gets dressed up in a fat suit and walks around town.She wants to hear the negative comments from people.This would be a good time to run on my threadmill.
Lori:)

YIKES!x(

Do me a favor, PLEASE don't start a thread on this show after you watch it b/c you KNOW it will start a freakin' war here! :eek:
I know that you don't do it on purpose, trust me!!! But you are like the little "fire-starter" on the boards! You often start seemingly innocent threads that turn into flame wars! LOL :p }( :eek:
 
K, Lori...gotta go get the lil' guy up! I'm a half hour behind schedule here!:eek:

I'll be back later after I go to the bank.

TA TA 4 now!:*

PS, maybe we should change the name of this thread to Lori and Wendy's Gabfest Thread because that's really what it has turned out to be! LOL :p
 
Am I really?:-( I don't mean to be.Im not like that at all in life.Maybe people try to pick on me! I know, there were two a while ago...the one with my dogs and the other was about my rotation...oh, and then there was the one where my x wouldn't pay child support.That was Candi's fault though..not mine}( I did apologize though, if thats any help:)
I don't even like Tyra Banks, her smile is fake and so is she.But when I saw this episode I thought I would like to watch it b/c I have nothing else to do and Im home anyway.I promise I won't start anything.
I just got back from a walk with the dogs and of course Chico cut his paw.He is always doing this.He is a big baby.I can't tell you how many times we have had to get him checked out b/c his paws were cut, there is nothing they can do about it so he will just sit there licking it all day.And Charlie...he is ready to go again.I think I beat them out for a little while though.I also took my 8 lbs weights with me and did 400 walking lunges.It was cold out first but I soon warmed up.
Do you want to drop this thread and just check in on the personnal rotation thread? Up to you.I don't care.They just better get ready for some gabbing over there!
Lori
:)
 
Lori, no we don't have to stop this thread. I enjoy it!:) 'Sides, don't ya remember that the other thread was started to get away from all of the yammering? They wanted a thread focused more on the work outs. That's why it was created so we'd best keep the chattiness here! When they wanna gab they come here...when they wanna be serious about checking in they post there! It's all good and it makes sense not to clutter a thread meant soley for work out and eating check-ins with lots of O/T blabbing!:)

Like I said, you don't start the drama on purpose...in fact, you don't do anything. You just start a thread and the drama seems to follow you around! I don't know why but if I were you I'd start tellin' off the people off who create the trouble in your threads! }( x( }(

There's no need for it at all. Debating and discussing and disagreeing with one another is fine. Speaking your point of view is fine but to do it in such a way where you make it sound like you are right and everyone else is wrong or to be sooo down right nasty when disagreeing with someone is just sooo uncalled for! I admit, once or twice I got really mad and let some folks have it but it doesn't happen often. I usually try to be as nice as I can. I also am not a b*tch about it unless I feel provoked. 'Nuff said. If the "wrong" people read this, we'll be having ourselves a flame war on THIS thread! LOL :p

Well, Joey is down for a nap...though he is complaining currently but that usually only lasts a few minutes and then he's off to sleep...I did my bank run and I've eaten something. I also started laundry. WOW, I'm productive today! :D Next in line is my work out once I am sure Joey is sleeping....

Hi Missy!!!!!!!:+
 
Missy, you are one slow reader! Are you sure you don't have to go back and get your grade 4 before doing the personnal trainers course?:+

Im getting ready for my run now and I am a bit lazy.But I am going to run,then get in the tub and maybe have a nap b/c of the night shift I am working tonight.Although, I love my naps so I don't know why I feel the need to explain myself:) Its also gotten colder outside and thats why I want to get in the tub.

Wendy, as long as you say that trouble follows me and that I don't start it...then you are A O.K in my books..:) :) hahaha I use to be as quiet as a mouse and I wouldn't dare start anything or defend myself.But it got to the point where there are a few around here that not only defend themselves and others but they are rude about it.I guess I sort of decided that I wasn't going to let people walk over me anymore.And maybe I am like it here b/c I am not like it in real life? Ya never know! Although, I am comming around.
My day is going good but like I said, there isn't much for me to do.I really wish I didn't have to work.Sometimes I don't think i would get tired of staying home, cooking supper and going to wbed every night at 10!:) I know I would get bored after a while though.

Must get my ex-ter-cise done:+
Lori:)
 
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Getting ready to run and the barbell rolled back on my big toe!!!! OUCH!!! I think I am going to cry!:) NOw it tooks like a pancake!;( ;( ;( ;(

OUCHERS Lor Lor! That HAD to hurt! Hope it doesn't spoil your run...might delay it but I hope you can still get it in!

ICE ICE baby! lol :p
 
Wendy, what did you do before you had Joey? I used to want to be a business person and work in Chicago and have a condo overlooking the lake. Now I couldn't ever imagine being in a stuffy business suit surrounded by chill and pretension. I couldn't imagine me doing anything that isn't either related to fitness or kids. What did you want to do when you were growing up?

Missy
 
Missy,

Prior to having Joey I was in banking for about 6 years...collections to be exact...yes, I know...everyone hated me! LOL :p }( :p

Before that I spent almost 5 years working for a messenger service...a few years in customer service and then a few years on the billing end of doing a little collections. This is where I got my start in collections and actually a guy they hired to help me with the collections p/t was a f/t collection supervisor and got me my first f/t collections job with Summit Bank! I left Summit after I found out they were folding and followed a different Summit mgr to the bank I worked for until I left to have Joey.

Through the years growing up I wanted to be SAHM (and I'm not kidding!), a book keeper or an accountant, an artist, a zoo keeper, a vet, an author, and a journalist. I kept changing my mind all of the time! LOL

Okay, I think Joey is finally asleep...I don't know how much time I have here but I'm going to attempt my w/o now!

I'll be back!
TTFN!:)
 
Oh, yes, a journalist. I love to write, and I wrote a lot of articles in HS. A teacher told me that I was intelligent but too nice to do journalism, that I would get eaten alive by some of the cutthroat meanies out there and that he could see me doing something in sport's medicine, coaching or teaching. That was before I decided I wanted to be a broker or a high powered suit. Funny that what the teacher saw is what I want to be doing 10 years later, huh? http://www.smileys.ws/smls/action/00000059.gif I need to go and visit my teachers, it has been a while. I used to go and visit them every year after I graduated, but it has been about four years since I have visited. Teachers are the best and they deserve so much more than what they get - from the government, students and parents. Some teachers do suck, but most are awesome.

Okay, now I am off to do ME. I was going to do arms today and then cardio + legs tomorrow, but it is going to be a late game tonight, so I am fitting it all in this afternoon. I haven't done it as a whole in a while, so it should be fun! I have to hype myself up for those leg presses, though... I think I can, I know I can, I think I can.....http://www.smileys.ws/smls/action/00000053.gif

Missy
 
Im o.k...I guess;) I pampered it for a bit but then I realized that it was just a toe and I have 9 more so I got on my threadmill and did my run:7
I am going to get my ab work in now.It was a good run and of course I am not sleepy like I was an hour ago.
The Tyra show was o.k. All I will say is it isn't nice what larger people have to go through.
Lori:)
