Personal Goals FIRST DAY OF FALL!!!! :):):):)

:7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7
Hey everyone! Hey, you would never guess, but today is the first day of fall!!!!! I keep expecting to hear some triumphant theme or a big bang to bring the season on, something magical to happen! I am such a nerd......

I ate ice cream last night. Schwann's came through the neighborhood yesterday handing out free half gallon ice creams. Sure, I will have one, my kids (yeah right, I got it for them, sure) would LOVE some. So, DH and I waited for the kids to go to bed }( }( }( and shared a bowl. :9 :9 :9 Butter pecan :9 :9 :9 It was soooooooooo good. I am saving the rest for a very special treat for the kids, for real (I am serious). I just had to test it to make sure that it wasn't poisoned. ;)

Michele, how are you feeling today? Getting any better?

Missy,

OMG. Schwann? That truck comes around here too and when I see it, I run!!!!! They got the best tasting ice cream ever! Some scary stuff on the labels, if ya know what I mean, but it sure is nice to have as a treat every now and then, huh? My grandmother use to get their stuff all the time. Back then I thought their pizza tasted better and their fried chicken. Well I was about 15 then and ate whatever. Later when I got their stuff, I thought it went downhill alot except for the ice cream. I guess it is still good? Glad your enjoying some. NOW DON'T EAT ANYMORE!!! LOL!

Charlotte,
They come around a lot, but I usually tell them "no" and then shut the door. But, for some reason, yesterday when he said "free ice cream", some animal instinct turned on inside of me! I was going to give some to the kids when they got home from school, then I found out what DD was given as "healthy brain" food for her ISTEP testing, so I decided not to. All that sugar in one little girl does scary things. Then I realized, I have not had sugar in..............how long? Besides the occasional dark chocolate and the one piece of nasty cake I took only a few bites of, I deserve I little buttery pecan treat. Mmmmmmmmm. I didn't look at the label because I don't want to know! Hopefully I will just poop it out.:eek:

Missy
 
Gosh, Missy, thanks for sharing.;)

I ate the equivalent of a small child yesterday. In fact, a small child could accidentally have got mixed up in the food I ate and I wouldn't have noticed.

Today has been better. So far:)

I will NOT be weighing or measuring at the end of this month, that's for sure. I am being easy on myself though, because at the moment I'm battling bigger demons that have to take precedence.:)
 
Hey girls!!

Yeah!!! Fall is here. My best friend and I are going on a road trip tomorrow to browse through a couple of antique malls. I can't wait. :D :D I haven't seen my friend all summer, but we hang out quite a bit once her kids are back in school. We always have a blast. We go way back and have been best friends since nursing school.

The cough lingers:-( but it's gradually getting better. My aforementioned friend just had this and it lasted for 3 weeks, so I think I see a light at the end of the tunnel.

I didn't eat much yesterday--I had a bowl of soup for lunch and 2 bowls for dinner. The only treat I had were 2 small squares of dark chocolate and a few Hall's Cough Drops. I had 2 eggs this morning with one piece of WW toast and a cup of green tea with lemon and splenda. I haven't had anything else yet. I'm not that hungary.

Shelley--I saw your picture trail. You are so thin--you look great!! and Sophie is a doll baby. I just can't imagine that you eat as much as you say you do. Boy, I wish I could eat that much and look as great as you do!! So, what do children taste like? }(

Shelley--I don't know what you're going through but hey, feel free to vent here anytime. We all need to do that once in a awhile. I know I've been pretty needy lately and have vented in several threads;( ;)

Missy, you're forgiven for the ice cream--just don't do it again. Maybe you should send it to me so as not to tempt yourself ;) :7

Michele
 
Michele - ACK!! Thin? You sure it was my Picture Trail you looked at? LOL

I'm not sure what the children tasted like, I didn't really chew and they were kinda mixed in with everything else I ate!

Sophie is adorable and the love of my life EVEN when she's being incredibly exasperating!

Thanks for the support:)
 
Yahoo. A new season, a new start. And since it doesn't officially start until sometime this evening, I won't feel quilty about the chocolate chip cookies I had at lunch.
BUT, my goals, as always,**sigh**, are to eat better, exercise consistantly ALL month, and lose about 10 pounds.
 
It's late here and I don't know how I missed this thread! I am laughing my ass off at what Shelley and Missy said! Thanks for the late night giggles :)
