Hi Deb (welcome back!), Josie, Joan, and Cathy--

This morning I did KCM's Kickbox, the 53 min. premix that combines both of the 30 min. routines. Haven't done this one for awhile, and it was fun!

Deb, on Sunday DH and I will be going to a Rural Lands catered event with music and a silent auction to raise money. Should be fun with maybe a bit of dancing. Otherwise it's just more of the same--Housemax Saturday and more writing for me.

Josie, that's too bad about not being able to kick up your heels a bit and dance.

Joan, it sounds like you have very little time just for yourself. I'm not sure I would handle that as well as you do. I guess your non-complaining mom must be an inspiration.

Cathy, sorry to hear about your sister. Will she be in the hospital for awhile??

I am sure hoping the snow we had last night is not an early warning about winter!

Hi Ladies,

No wo for me today. I wish there was some dancing at the event, that way I could wo a little bit.

Tomorrow and Sunday is the usual a Kevin wo and spinning. I will also be practicing at the parking lot on my new bike.

Cathy, I will keep your DS in my prayers.

Joan, I bet you wish you could have your house back to yourself. When my SIL comes to visit, she always wants to stay for 2 weeks and the only one that has fun is her. This year I told her that we were not going to be at home for the holidays. I usually take 2 weeks off for Christmas and she knows this.

Welcome back Deb and have fund at your events Garance.

Have a great weekend!

Josie

thanks ya'll, she is better today, cuz they have her in the hospital and pumped her full of steroids, morphine, and antibiotics. so, when she stabilizes, she'll go home, and then has to talk to her dr. about , i guess having the surgery. which she does not want. but, there is really no other alternative.

i did jiggle free arms today, and then went to my moms and helped her w/my sisters grandkids, her great grandkids. so, i am kinda tired. gonna watch a movie and then go to bed.

Hi everyone,

I just finished low max. Another night of eating out. I don't want to cook for crowd so we end up taking everyone out. I always eat too much when brother is in town. But that is my fault not his.

Db always says his mind but hasn't in front of my dil. She wants me to put diaper on over underwear so Elliot can feel when she is wet. I suggested since she always poos at my house that if I have to clean it up it's easier to have just a diaper during nap time. She made a crack that if I didn't do it her way she wouldn't "let " me babysit. Db didn't think that was much of a threat because then she would have to pay babysitter. She did later say it was ok to do it my way. I also don't give her candy or make her sit on potty every 30 minutes. I have Elliot tell me when she has to go.

I can't believe what they did to mother today. They were measuring for radiation. Db took her and I thought it would be like last time. She spent 45 minutes with her hands above her head and her head tilted to the side. She would be stiff enough with that but they put needles in her breast to mark the spots. Besides the holes she is bruised. She told the doctor that it was worse than operation. You know it was bad if she complained. If she had known, she would have taken pain killers before hand. They had to make a plaster cast like thing to hold breast in position for radiation. They can't shoot right in or it would hit heart and lungs. It goes in at an angle.

Snow!!!!!!!!!!! It was 77 degrees today and should be that all weekend.

I may have to change weight ticker Monday. I have really gained a lot of weight this week.

Saturday

Good Morning,

HouseMax for me today too plus taking Keegan to agility class. If he has the "zoomies" today again like he has had before, I may consider pulling him out of this at least until he matures a little more. It's not fun for me to be chasing him around the room while others are disturbed and can't get their turn.

Garance, have fun at the event and good luck with the writing.

Joan, I can't believe all that your Mom has been going through and that your DIL dares to dictate what you should do while you are babysitting for free.

Cathy, hope your DS is doing better.

Josie, good bike workout!

I hope to get back on track starting tomorrow with workouts again. It has been a lousy couple of weeks. It's supposed to go up to 60 degrees here today and tomorrow, hopefully this will be my chance to get the yard cleaned up for fall..

Have a good day!

Hi Deb, Josie, Joan, and Cathy--

This morning was Housemax. I am pooped! I feel like I went up and down the stairs a million times and that's gotta count for something.

Deb, once again, you have to see Marley and Me. They were kicked out of obedience training class because Marley both had the "zoomies" and was hot for the teacher, who decided to take over when the owner couldn't seem to control Marley. Of course Marley had the teacher down for the count and was doing his "thing." Marley was then neutered for his overzealous affection.

Joan, I think your mom deserves a medal. I don't know if I could stand the pain. I agree with Deb--your dil sounds like she is very difficult: "my way or the highway."

Cathy, will your sister have to have a colostomy?

Josie, what does your sil do that she has so much fun? Does she simply enjoy being waited on as a "guest"?
