Yuck. I got a new coffee creamer yesterday. Hazelnut coconut creamer. Ewwwww. I like the plain so much better.
Missy, how was the competition??
Carolyn, that is nervy of the kids next door. Could you talk to the grandparents?
Betty and Carolyn, I never thought to cut DS hair. How do you so it?? That sure would save some money.

Carolyn what are you doing posting at 3AM? Crazy woman!
My DH thought it was more important to cut the grass yesterday than put the AC in the windows. Then he complained that it was too hot to sleep! I can't say much because I wasn't going to do either task.
This heat really zaps my energy, but I feel like I have to do my harder workouts on the weekend so I did AB this morning. I modified it quite a bit because I did GS BShBis yesterday and didn't need more shoulder work. Even with the fan blowing right on me I sweat buckets.
I have not been able to cut my kids hair in a while. Now I take them to Supercuts but they want to go to the salons. It is so expensive.
We have a piano recital this afternoon and then a softball game. Should be nice and hot! Have a great day!

Good day, girls!
Carolyn, I was thinking of your insomnia this morning as I lay in bed unable to sleep at 4 something! (With a slight migraine from yesterday. You know how it never fully goes away??) Glad we both were able to fall back asleep.
I saw you posted on VF about UY. I was wondering who would. I'm not a member.
That's an awesome description of how you cut ds's hair! I like how precise you are!!! I used to do that with ds1, a variation on your finger method. With ds2, I also started using the buzzer, and as many years as I've done it, I'm still nervous. I HATE the short buzzcut look, so I've never done that; I keep ds's hair longer than that.
Colleen, if ds is game, try the finger with scissors method. You can't go wrong. If you keep lifting his hair and snipping, eventually you'll get the whole head, and the same length!
The sundae sounds divine. I indulged in a skinny cow last night.
Awesome on the hamstrings!
Mary, dh mowed the grass too, and did other yardwork. Today is very breezy, thankfully! When's the cooldown?? I can't take this!
Good luck at the game! Hope it'll start cooling down by then. Good luck at piano recital. Ds's is always around the 3rd week of June.
Missy, tell us all about the competition (I could never do that) and blueberry picking.
Jean, we do need to hear from you!

I would be so freaked about his appearance! Omg! He is so stubborn and stoic, with the pain from this and his stomach this year! I would be so fretting about his eyesight!
I keep looking at DD to see what else I could buy! I wish they had BB TB and Travis S&S! I borrowed Ballet Beautiful (trainer to Natalie Portman in Black Swan) and am viewing it right now...

Hi Everyone. It has been 2 long weeks since I have written. On Saturday I finally finished the major painting. Now I have 2 bathrooms and the kitchen. I am not painting the walls just the mouldings. And then do a good cleaning. Yesterday we moved the t.v. and sofa into the basement. The upstairs is almost empty. Today I have a man coming to give me an estimate on refinishing the hardwood floors. Then it will be just packing more boxes and relaxing. Last week the builder said they were tiling the bathroom floors. So things are moving along. I will email her this week to get another update.
Betty I am so excited that you got UY. It really pays to stick to your guns and get the price you want. Were you able to use the 10% off coupon also?
Carolyn Your husbands eye sounds horrible. I hope he calls the Dr today. I don't understand how men can live with injuries. That is a shame about the neighbors grandchildren coming over to use the pool uninvited. I hope the situation works itself out.
Missy How exciting that you went to a fitness competition. I bet there were some nice bodies there. Did that inspire you any?
Marie I loved B's pictures eating on his own. What a mess babies make but it is so fun.
I got a new laptop and I am getting used to it. I have always had a desktop.
Well I will try to check in more often now that I am getting caught up with my work.

Jean, so great to hear from you. It's just not the same without every single voice here, so yes, do chime in more.
I wasn't able to do the 10%. I tried once when you mentioned it, and again when the price dropped. Couldn't get it to work.
Just finished TB Express. All this talk of ballet!
Making my oatmeal, then errands later.

Carolyn, there is something about nature that is grounding. Glad you got out there. Do you carry an umbrella, or do you just go all out and walk in the rain and sweat?
The rain here is pretty moderate (might be tapering off too), and we need it, but, oh, that gross, gross wet humidity. We had the wildest week of weather. Mid-50s Memorial Day weekend, low 90s one weekend later! Today is mid-60s thus far.
Any progress with dh's eye/face?
I was thinking the same for you, that you need to stretch more, since you have those aches and pains. Use Travis' Foundations and CT too! Maybe you'll change your mind about UY. Our group can start a UY/BB rotation!
The lady in the ballet dvd I previewed yesterday was as pliable as playdoh! There is flexible, but she can twist and bend in pretzel-like pliability! Incredible. It is a 60-min TB workout, sectioned off by body part.
I am tuning my brain to have a 'ballet body' mind-set now. But, boy, do I ever miss Cathe's good ole warmups and cooldowns! And then I also momentarily panic, thinking I'm not getting any Cathe cardio in! But I did spin yesterday.
Jean, it has been a long haul for you prepping the house. You definitely have light at the end of the tunnel! Can't wait for you to get to the relaxing part.
Have fun trying out your new laptop.
You haven't posted much recently so I just noticed I'm going to catch up to you in # of posts! You'd best get posting!
So I watched This is 40 last night. Omg, I was prepared to laugh because you ladies warned me, but, omg, did I laugh hard! I can't remember a movie doing that! Tears from laughing so hard, but also from being so raw and hitting some nerves. Sniff, sniff.
Have you seen it, Jean?
Missy, how exactly did you participate in the fitness competition? I want the details.

Betty I saw " This is 40" on my last post 2 weeks ago. I guess yal just forget. I don't think I laughed as much as you guys but I did enjoy it. Last weeks movie was "People Like Us". That was good. This weeks movie is "Anna Karenina" but I didn't get to watch it yesterday but I will this week. If you guys are going to do a UY/BB rotation let me know which BB dvd's I should buy. But don't start the rotation until at least August please.
The man came today about my floors. The estimate will be ready around Thursday. I hope It is not too much.
I haven't done much today. I ordered my chandeliers for the dining room and foyer and had them sent to the builders house. There is no sales tax in Delaware so I saved some money. I did not like what they were offering so I got a credit and bought what I wanted. I tried to post them on here but it didn't work. The builder said the cabinets have been set , they are doing templates for the countertops tomorrow. They are also painting. We are still on schedule for mid or late July.
I can't believe so many of you don't have central air. If I win the lottery , I will get central air for everyone.

Jean, dh didn't think the movie was that funny. I'm still laughing!
Anna Karenina was rather dull. The ending left something to be desired!
There are only 3 BB avail at DD. Those are the ones. Don't get them unless you want to do them. Wouldn't want to be an enabler!
I could use central a/c right now. I am WITHERING from the humidity.
Marie, great minds think alike.
Car, what's the scoop with dh?

Just bought Leahs dvds!
Awesome! Been googling new videos this evening. She looks like a good one. I recently got on the wait list at the library for Tracy Anderson's Mat workout and Dance Cardio. I must see what all the hype is about. Apparently she is popular. I'm 15th on the list.
Hope your hubby gets better soon. Thinking of him!
