HOORAY!!! Just a few hours away before the bad karma month is over!!!! ZIPPITY!:7 :7 Happy Good NYE Day Xers!
I like Jeanette "am hoping" to restart week 5 today but that depends on our go home schedule ..... All I know for certain is we will be feasting on fresh oysters & duck come NY Day as DH had a successful hunting trip & we got a pint of fresh oysters just before they sold out at our fresh bait camp.... I do love living on the gulf (well at least on the wekends)....
I am so ready to get back home and continue with some normalcy... I know from experience that I cant complete the grieving process hidden away - ya just gotta go thru it and I need to do that in Houston.... Our neighbors / friends here at the bay arrived yesterday so we exchanged some little Xmas gifts & broke the sad Sandy news... They are about 10 yrs older than us and love their dogs as children too.... the first year DH & were together they lost their beloved "Liquor" she was 13. It was like all that pain came back yesterday - I guess you never truely "get over" it.
We will have the above mentioned neighbors go with us to the nursery in spring to pick out Sandys Tree... They are organic gardeners down here so we need their expertise on this... Many varieties cant tolerate the salt air & high winds we get plus extreme heat with only weekly watering.... They'll help us plant it as well.

JEANETTE
Oh I am hoping you got some difinitive news about your DGM! Not knowing is scary at any age... I wonder at times if our Drs go the extra mile to find out & cure us once we pass the american societys idea of usefulness. I do hope you & your family are like bulldogs with the answers. ~ Happy to hear you werent stranded miles away in bad weather yesterday! Go put that pump back!!! Now I'll worry about you with every ride. Being stranded is one of my irrational fears - not sure why as I dont recall it ever happening to a such a dramatic extent... We ran out of gas one time way out in the bay in winter so not many boaters... I freaked out - panic attack almost... DH couldnt believe how I got- he said he's never seen a totally kivckback- go w/ the flow kinda gal FREAK before! Add my claustrophobia on to that and I was MENTAL! lololol xxoo
KIM
So glad you came back!!! I have to laugh as many a person as stopped over & saifd they's be back & we never see them again! LOLOL- I always think that Sandra scares them away as she holds the title of Sargent Sandra! Can ya hear the whip crackin???? ~~ What a "coincidence" about your pet & Xmas Eve! I totally relate to your son!!! Tell me your pet name & when I talk to Sandy at night I'll tell her to look for him/her.... I'm not crazy - I just really believe we can still communicate with those we love. ~~~ On the nutrition... The fisrt time I did X I was so excited I acyually followed clean eating pretty darn strictly (which is 85% to me!) I really saw results at the 6 week mark - that was my most visible change.... I also had about 10 pounds to lose & that was accomplished as well.... This round? Well lets just say I aint expectin' a whole lot so far! Eating- cra*, intensity of workouts- half hearted.... just too much mental garbage with nursing Sandy etc.... I am really going to have to get serious if I want to see ANY results at all this phase. I'd be happy to just get back to where I started! LOLOL
ARX SHOULD be called PITA (pain in the a**) because ya gotta do it 4 TRILLION times!! I think Jeanette, Sandra & Tracy actually did it every time as dictated round one.... NOT I! You will soon learn I am a rebel & I love to venture into new territory! xxoo
DEBRA
Are you fresh & glowing??? That cracked me up!!! Fresh is a signal to DH thats it NOOKIE TIME! LOLOLOL ....Thanks for mentioning Billys BC Abs! I LOVE that one & need to dig it out for a sub for Cardio Core Days! Its so darn effective! Billy is actually how I got my obliques to pop the first time if I recall..... GOOD GIRL getting in a w/o yesterday! ~ Hoping XDH stays in a happy zone and isnt grilling DD about CB.... I always wonder why adults stoop to that level with kids... The one thing I can say about my parents divorce...they made a choice to NEVER allow us kids to see the ugliness... & they never did...... With all their parental pitfalls I will alwys be tjhankful for that. xxoo
SANDRA
Well arent you being pampered like a queen????? Is this why people have children??? I want breakfast in bed!!! LOLOLOL- See how much you are loved & valued?!..... I cannot seem to focus my brain on the workout discussion that you & Tracy had yesterday so I'll just say GO FOR IT! lololol .... I really need to work on my concentration once I'm home. All I can say is that I too have emailed myself some ideas about how to change up this phase based on this weekends discussions. Could ya pass along some of the PMS Power??? I am in my usual PMS Slump Week! My timing sucks! lol & XXOO
TRACY
see post above to Sandra! LOLOLOL.... I think I should pay you to write my personal plan - but then I'd have to actually DO IT wouldnt I??? Hmmmmmmmmmm - could I pay someone to do it too???? LOLOL I PROMISE I will get my head in the game this week! Rather than reach for food when get sad I am going to do walking lunges! ~ UGH- you remided me I have month end + year end family & business books to do! I havent been all that consistent this year so I'll have to back track! Nust be the theme of my life right now- backtracking.....XXOO
Love & Hugs to all & PLEEZE be safe if you are out & about at all today!!!
