dyk and my mom bought two tupperware sets -- one was a set of the large stackable with lids bowles and one was the fresh produce set (with a 1 qt pitcher) that have the tabs that you pop for different levels of airtightness

dyk and she got them each for 55% off

dyk and I wanted the spongebob tupperware set one for each kid -- but I was out of money so I said, Can you just come to my house and we'll have a party?

dyk we were very popular at the tupperware booth hahah

dyk I haven't had a party at my house in a while so tupperware it is!

dyk, I weighed in at my lowest yet this morning

dyk, lost all the weight I gained in Delaware a few weeks ago and then another 2.4 pounds

dyk, yay me!

dyk, then I ate a huge bowl and half of Special K Chocolately Delight before boxing, a small fry from bgood after boxing (1 of the VPs bought lunch), and a slice of strawberry cake for the first of my girls that are leaving

dyk, good-bye low!

dyk, I'm in a bad place right now

dyk, my staff doesn't seem to care that they are missing deadlines, they give me attitudes about what is defined by "end of day"

dyk, and the other manages are clueless

dyk, I told our consultant (loud enough for the others to hear) that we have NEVER been this far behind and that I was p!ssed off and that if things weren't prepped by Monday I was going to physically start kicking @$$es

dyk the post was about the market we went to where my mom found trhese shoulder bags that were made of army tents -- refurbashed or "fragmented" as the name of the boutique place was called

dyk she wanted one bad

dyk but didn't buy it -- b/'c we were shopping for others

dyk so when we got home, she left, then Sean left, I was here with kids

dyk I called my dad, he said yes, go get her one

dyk ACK! place closed at 3, that was at 1:45pm

dyk so a friend came by (my Jen friend with her DD Alisha) and they chilled so I walked back over to the market and bought TWO bags (by now my sister is looped in and she wants one)

dyk so I have my mom's present from my dad here and she's going to flip out!

dyk and I will have to give my sister hers all "undercover" so my mom doesn't see it at Thanksgiving so she doesn't know I went back!
