>O< squeakycleanorjustsimplytidyweekend >O<

I don't think I ever mentioned my workout yesterday. I did SM on the ball and Ab Circuits on the ball. My uppers are very sore today!

Have I ever told you guys about the bloody finger? We have this fake plastic bloody thumb that makes it's way around the house to scare people. Last night I put it in Chris' birthday brownie. Ahhhhh, so funny!!

I'm getting ready to hop on the treadmill for a bit, "see" you all later!
 
Nice wo yday, Katie! LOL about the finger!

Birthdaypartymax here today! I'm excited for Gina! She's excited too, but I think Isabel is most excited of all!:D

Last night I went to Best Buy late and cant decide if I should return my Sony laptop (still unopened) to get a Mac. Any thoughts??? There are so many pros/cons....blah!

Will do some cardio today. And try real hard to not pig out on birthday food!:confused:

off to make breakfast for the fam - see you all lat-ah!
 
WO done -- 4 minute wu walking, then ran 5 miles, then 4 minute cd walking. I feel great!!

Kate, I love my apple iPod but I'm not sure I could convert totally. Tough decision! Have fun with the party stuff!

I'm a sweaty mess, shower time!
 
katie, great wo!!! thats awesome!
hoping for a good cc sweat session later!

gina decided she wants ic sundaes instead of decorating cakes - works for me!! way less cleanup!:D
just made eggs, sausage, fruit & french brkfst muffins(angie!) for the fam....dutifully ate my kashi , fruit & pb......

looks like its just me & katie this morning.....wake up sleepyheads!!!:D
 
Thanks Kate! It's the farthest I've ever ran in my life, I'm addicted! I just need to work on my speed....

I think I am making biscuits and sausage gravy for the family, but I just finished my cereal like a good clean-and-tidy girl! Sausage doesn't appeal to me anymore anyway, I'm scarred from the scrapple encounter!
 
:)that's a funny title

Bloody b-day brownie now that the type of movie I would watch. LOL Great run today!

Kate enjoy your girls today. what's wrong with the Sony laptop?

No w/o so far maybe I'll do a powerwalk... but Katie sent her cold air to NC;). Maybe I'll swing my k-bell.
Off to do some grocerymax but first I'm going to take the kids to the HighWay diner.

Good Morning Everyone!

I slept way too late this morning but I needed it. I am planning to do STS bi's and Back today. I was hoping to run but it is 27 degrees outside. Brr! I will have to see how tired I am after bi's and back. I am still congested and have a sinus headache.

Kate, you know you can run windows on a mac. My cousin had the same dilemma and Chris got a mac for him and installed both windows and mac os on it. He loves it.
Katie, ^5 on the 5 miles. I was at 5 miles outside before the cold weather came.
Angie, I don't really get tired of oatmeal w/ almonds. Sometimes I will have kashi or shredded wheat. On the weekends I might make eggs.
Robin, are you going to brave the cold and power walk?
Klaudia, how was the party last nigh?
Morris, you have so much going on. Don't worry about the cookies. Today is a new day.
Hi Anne!
 
Good morning!

I've been up since 6:45 thanks to Nevena! Last night was fun. I had a chicken enchilada, yellow rice, blue corn chips and guac, 1 jalepeno popper, a browniw, a piece of creamsicle cheesecake, and a Corona!! Good thing I got on the tm beforehand!! Today I need to take Danica to the eye doc and the allergist. Gonna get a tm run and stretch in later. Darrin has to work a landscape show all day:( Basketball and shows to catch up on and that's it!

Katie, great run!! I can't imagine doing 5 miles! Way to go!

Kate, ice cream sundaes-way easier:)

Robin, have fun at breakfast! Don't worry, it's still colder in MI-high of 47 today!

Gotta eat breakfast and we have no milk! Oatmeal it is.

bbl...

Hi Colleen! Sorry you still feel yucky:( I wanted to go out and run, too, but I'm wimpy. I need it way warmer!
 
katie, ^5 on our clean breakfasts! but id be a jerk if i didnt confess that i ate part of isabels muffin as i was cleaning up the mess!

robin, diner food! bellyache city for me, but m loooooves it!
have fun w/ your kb! did u get your vg's?

colleen, m's against the mac....its a lot smaller than the sony...i think he broke the seal on the box this morning so id quit talking abt which to get:p
good luck w/ your wo! pullups!!! chilly here too...and grey - blah.

klaudia, glad yo uhad a good time! busy sat w/ your girls! i love a productive day!
hope ds show drums up some business!

----------
housecleaning, filling bday bags, prepping party food - fun here!

morris, whatd you decide abt your dad?
 
Hey all,

Sorry I didn't start a thread this AM. Made one eyed monsters for the fam (I had 2 egg whites on ww toast) and then we went shopping at a dept store about 45 min away and played at a park there with the kids. Then we went grocery shopping and out to lunch. I had half a "cheese" sandwich with Ellie and some strawberries and whip cream. Prob my fave dessert.

I'm at an impasse where I realize that I can't eat whatever I want anymore so I really just have to clean up my act. I'm still just trying to figure out what that looks like.

Katie, ^5 on the 5 miles! LOL about the finger. I don't think stuff like that would fly in my house of little girls.

Kate, yum ice cream sundaes! I want to come to Gina's party! :) For your mac/pc dilemma, I really like my mac for photo/movie purposes. It's awesome for video chat (mostly with other mac users) and it's all around more user friendly. It took some getting used to for me but I'm happy with it. Ryan hates windows programs so he actually runs linux on his computer. But, if you have programs that you really like windows to run, you can do it with your mac. Good luck!

Robin, have a nice power walk. What did you have at the highway diner?

Colleen, I'm sorry you're not feeling well... oooh - living on the edge with eggs on the weekends! ;)

Klaudia, your dinner sounds scrumptious! Hope you have a relaxing day. I'm not keeping up my desire to "watch" the games - it's just too hard not to know! I'm winning my pool but can't believe some of the upsets! I almost wanted Memphis to lose that game... would have been funny!

OK, Ryan's working out (it's nice to have him in the routine again) and girls are watching home movies of themselves. It's peaceful...

I'm feeling OK. Still a little chest cold but hopefully will try to WO on Monday.

Kate I went into the Dollar Tree and brought old fashion Coke ice cream sundaes glasses. so then I had to go and buy the stuff for ice cream sundaes.:) VG have not come yet.
Angie I had cheese omelette and the kids had pancakes. No big deal but the dinner is deco in 50s stuff, which is fun. Eating clean is very hard to do 100%. I think eating clean involves no bad carbs and nothing processed so that leaves out a lot of comfort food.:( If you can read the ingredients on a label then it's not considered clean.

Klaudia I loooove chips and guac :eek:

Colleen I'm going to wait until the mail-lady comes to see if my new DVDs arrives...if not then I'll do some k-bell work. It's too cool outside. I hope you get your run in. Are your STS back weights heavy? Sometimes I'm scarred to use those heavy weights.
 
angie, nice day!! i think its vhard to eat 100% all the time. we are parents and home exercisers....not bodybuilders!:) i just want to look nice and cathes wo's can make that happen. for me its just identifying triggers (the hr before dinner, leftover dessert, etc) of when i tend to overdo it. you'll figure out your balance, hopefully i will too, of what/how much/when to eat. a neverending puzzle for sure.
thanks for the mac help!


robin, i bet the kids had fun! i looove babies but the older ages are great too! we were just getting into the groove of enjoying no babies then hello julia! but shes a blessing far greater than i ever imagined.
cute glasses!!!
sending you maillady-bring-new-wo vibes!

productive day here.....my house is clean! for another hr anyway!:p
 
hi everyone - i worked this am, so no checkin early for me. did get in a nice but cold outdoor run - 19 degrees! i decided to call my dad yesterday. it was hard. i don't think he gets it or takes any personal responsibility. but, i either have a relationship with the man he is, or with no one. i will try. so he is coming over in an hour to see me and the kids. i am so stressed, but what can i do? i am eating clean - cereal for breakfast, cheese, fruit, and dried fruit for snack, and toast and soup for lunch. no more emotional eating for me!

katie, great run!! you go girl. have fun with your mom.

kate, have fun with b-day max. i must follow your lead on the clean max.

angie, the others have given great advice. i think moderation is hugely important.

robin, have fun swinging or walking!

colleen, glad you got some rest finally. enjoy your sts.

klaudia, sounds like a fun night with the girls. sorry you were up so early. good luck at the appointments today.

i feel so out of touch these last few days, makes me feel like a bad friend. cooincidentally, my eating goes bad. hope to be around more this weekend. must go clean now - funny, after dh is with the boys, this place is a mess!@
 
Thanks for all the compliments on my five miles -- seriously. It feels pretty good, like a major accomplishment. And you ladies are really the only ones who understand. So thanks!!
 
birthdayparty was oreomax for me:eek::eek::eek: whoopsie! must versaclimb tonight!!!!:eek::eek::eek::eek:
sis laura came over too - i cant wait til her semester is over/for her to come back home!

morris, hope it goes well w/ your dad! maybe try to think of it like this......you wont ever be the dad you remember/want/need. try to accept him for what he is. you can be polite/cordial but you dont have to be warm. let ds's have a relationship available there. just a thought....my dad was a real jerk and still says/does really awful things....i really try to think of him as jst a person i can be nice to.:confused: are you close w/ your inlaws at all? my fil is fantastic - easily replaces my dad. mil is a wonderful woman - i learned way more abt mothering from her than my mom ever taught me.

hows your day katie? still basking in the glow of your run?:cool::D
 
Day is going well, Kate. Thanks for asking. After my run, shower, and cereal, we went to the mall and did some shopping, then out to lunch for a sandwich and home for a nap.

Tonight I'm cooking one of Chris' favorite dinners, grocery MAX at some point, and maybe watching a movie. Not that interesting!

Pass me some Oreos, Kate!
 
Hey girlies!

Spent the afternoon with my parents. My dad is such a trip! The stuff that he says-omg! But he did try and pay for Danica's eye exam and 2 pairs of glasses then tried to refuse a check for 1/2 that I insisted on paying. As much as he drives me crazy, I love him! Friend that I went out with last night called to see if we wanted to do Family Pizza Night, so they're coming over in a bit. Haven't worked out, don't know if I will.

Morris, I agree with Kate-that is exactly the relationship Darrin has with his dad. He had a wonderful bond with his late stepdad who was more of a mentor and father that his own ever has been. But, his dad is getting better, I must say. And he's good with the girls so I'm ok with things. Hope it all worked out today.

Katie, I love those kind of days:)

Kate, I bet I still beat you in oreomax-I think I had 7 or 8 the other night! And I wonder why I don't have the body I want?!

Send me the energy to workout after our friends leave!!
 
katie, that sounds like a wonderful day!!! i love my julia to pieces and its and bits but i do sometimes long for the freedom i had to come/go as i please. this is such a short time tho to take in all her chubby sweetness - enjoying every minute of it!
whats c's dinner?

klaudia, we're prob tied in the oreo-eating contest! mine were all broken up for the sundaes so i have no clue what kind of damage i did.
what a great dad! sounds like my fil....a couple yrs ago he knew i was getting a hitch put on the durango so he called ahead to pick up the tab.
have fun tonight! good luck w/ the wo! i'll send you vibes if you bounce em back to me - im really tired!:( havent had a rest day this wk so i suppose i could take one today but w/ the oreos i dont want to. but if i wo it makes it seem like a punishment for bad eating, not sthing to enjoy...brother!
 
thanks ladies for the advice aqnd sharing. i am really trying to sort it all out in my head. it was so good to "see" my dad, but it hurt so much. again, he is so unrepentant - does not at all get that he did something wrong. but he was great with my kids, and they enjoyed him. maybe that will be enough.

poor aidan had a wicked fever again tonight. went to bed early too. i am ready to go to bed myself. clean day here! chinese for dinner - mine was steamed chick and veg, though i ate too much it:eek:

klaudia, have fun with pizza night, and how kind of your dad!!

kate, glad the party was a success. give your body a break if you need it. tough to do, i know, but, punishment never works! just start over tomrrow.

aktie, hope you had fun. i need to go shopping sooooo bad, but there is always something else to do. i am with kate, trying to enjoy everym minute of my baby, but sometimes missing freedom.

tomoorow am i am making blakc bean soup in the slow cooker and making a lentil loaf thing for the kids. i may make some sweet potato bisuits too. see you all in the am
