GOOD MONDAY MORNING, BUDDIES!
| Mon, 12-15-2008 - 8:15am |
Happy Monday, Buddies! How was your weekend? Did you find some time to relax and renew? I hope so because we have another big week ahead! Besides our normal weekly work, we have holidays to prepare for and the HHMC exercise challenge to keep up with! We're going to need all the energy we can muster!
My plans for the day - get in at least one form of exercise, glug, grade exams, make some phone calls, finish paying the bills, check over my Christmas list to make sure I'm not forgetting something major, and play a game of Mario Kart with Dan after I get finished here. :o)
What's up with your Monday, Buddies? Have a great one!
((((HUGS)))) - Karen

Mario Kart is so much fun! hehe
*sighs* So I need a route canal. I went to the dentist on saturday and I was there maybe 15 minutes. All he did was look and take an x-ray. I expected him to say route canal. Im not too nervous, but Im sure I will be when the day comes.
So now Ive been trying watch my chewing and drink water as much as possible and brush my teeth after each meal. I want to keep the tooth clean since my appointment is next week. the 23rd, 2 days before chrismtas!
Anyway....my weekend was nice and I did get some time to relax. Saturday was crazy all day. I was up early and then we went out to go shopping, then had lunch, more shopping, then when we gothome it was all cleaning cause my friend came over for dinner.
Yesterday I spent all morning wrapping presents and pushing radar off my lap while trying to wrap presents. hehe he's such a lap dog. Then in the afternoon we went with some friends to see "The day the earth stood still" and walked around at the King of Prussia Mall. It was a lovely day. By the time I got home I was pooped and still had to do laundry.
Today I have to drink water and watch my food chewing...I have soup for lunch. Then afterwork I have to go shopping for work christmas presents...and then were going food shopping and then more laundry -_- busy week!
Tomorrow I think I can actually sit down....maybe? Id like to finish up my cleaning, Im almost done. Wednesday I have my pollyhana, and thursday nothing yay! Friday I have off but our department is having our luncheon so I have to go into the city for that. Saturday christmas parties, sunday....most likely the next round of laundry...wait didnt I just finish one round? heh but I get sunday to myself cause bill is going to paint ball with some friends from work. Oh the stuff I could get done with him not home....hehe.
Well I should get to work... have a great day buddies

DH and I love Mario Kart.

I'm jealous. Your monday seems like much more fun. I have to study for my exam tomorrow, eat, study, nap, study, stay up all night and study. Ugh. I really wanna do well...gotta boost my GPA as much as I can. (In my last year and now I start worrying about this stuff...haha)!
Thankfully, Todd and I met up at the mall last Friday (his job will pay him if he volunteers during worktime...so he rang the salvation army bell at the mall - isn't that cool?) and I finished my shopping. And he started his...haha, I think he got most of what he wanted though. Somehow over the weekend we thought it was a great idea to open one gift. I gave him his and he knew what it was before opening - but I got earrings I wasn't expecting. They're beautiful so I guess I have to wear something over than my tiny hoops I never take out.
Anyways, somewhere in there today I will get some exercise. Last friday (although I didn't post it) I was down around half a pound. Well now I'm up almost a pound, ugh...so this week I will be extra good. I really want the new decade and I'm about 1.5 away! I can get there!!!
Good Monday morning buddies,
Brrrr, is it cold here! It is -8 with a -29 windchill...YIKES! It was really cold when Aiden and I took Emily to school. It's her last day before Christmas break and Aiden's class is already off so it is just he and I for now.
Buddies, I'm a failure! I weighed in this morning at 174.4. HOW? Why? How did I let it get so out of control? I don't feel like I have been eating poorly all the time, but I keep gaining and gaining and gaining. It's so frustrating!!! I was at 140 and was so happy with myself, I just wish others would have been happy for me. So, now I am shooting for a 25 pound loss, to 150, and will re-evaluate how I feel about it then. I have got to do this buddies. I am so disappointed and frustrated with myself. Hopefully this is day 1 of my loss journey!!!
Have a great Monday buddies!
Fighting for 2 hours of "ME" time!!!!!

There were plenty happy for you, buddy! (I know it's not the same, we're online, the real-life people might not have been as supportive). And we still think you're doing great. You've got a lot of balls in the air that you're juggling and that can be tough. You'll find the rhythm to it again and be losing - I know it.
Good morning/afternoon, K!! Sounds like you have a busy day going for you! Who won the video game? LOL
Had a fabulous weekend (even lost weight YAY). Now I am at work, trying to accomplish a ton of stuff before the college shuts down for Christmas break, being pulled in every direction, but trying to keep focus on one priority at a time until it is completed. Even though we get a nice break, courses still have to be ready for Jan. 5 delivery. There may be a bit of overtime from home during the break, but that'll be a nice change from driving in every day.
Have fun...stay warm!

Good luck with all of the studying, G, I am sure it will payoff. You are one smart (calorie-free) cookie! ;o)
YES, you CAN and WILL get into a new decade!!! And you will look gorgeous when you do, wearing your beautiful new earrings. :)
Have a productive, calm day!

((((Dawn))))) you are NOT a failure, you are just learning through this like the rest of us. I have been so-close-to-goal TWICE and let it slip away again, so I DO understand!! I also understand how hard things got at home when you lost all of that weight, so that is another factor that has some influence. All I know now is that you are strong and capable and CAN lose. I am SO behind you/with you/beside you in this, it's not even funny!!
Let's get it done, Dawnzie! HUGE hugs and prayers for getting the support you need,

Good afternoon all!
