Feeling neither fit nor fabulous today. I've had about 3 hours of sleep total due to coughing my head off all night long. This might be the cold that finally does me in. DH told me my lungs sound like a barn full of hoot owls. Great huh? So, no workout for me unless you count coughing as aerobic exercise.

So I got in to work at 5:30 this morning. Yippee. I was up staring at my sleeping dogs when I decided I might just as well be at work so I left. Gonna try to talk my boss into letting me leave at noon today. We have a huge meeting this afternoon and I've been trying to wiggle out of it all week. I'll get the gist of it from my boss on monday I'm sure whether I'm there or not.

Anyway, hope you all have a great day and a better weekend.

Good Morning. Spent most of the night on the couch coughing and hacking. But that's a good sign...the old cold is on the way out! Not much sleep though. Bu**er.

This morning I'm climbing on the treadmill for a bit of a workout to some praise and worship music. Have a new CD of music we'll be performing in church over the next few months. I think I'll throw in some weights, too. Time to climb back on this horse. No one has said I need to stop exercising. In fact doc said the exercising will bring my BP right back down again. I'll take it easy though...the knee has had a good rest and recuperation time. Laundry and the then the office are on my agenda today. I think I'm taking the kids (and by that I'm including DH) to see the new Looney Tunes movie tonight. I'm going for the eye candy myself...love that Brendan Frasier ;)

Tomorrow is a full day up at the church for breakfast and then work day. Saturday night I've got a yummy roast planned. Sunday will be church and then meetings and dinner at church. Now that I'm looking at my schedule and all the time I'll be spending at church...I'm going in later than I had originally planned today.

Phyllis...enjoy your last week alone preparing for DH's arrival. Do you have a special surprise for him? Patty...it seems to me that this photo op is perfect timing for Holiday photos and cards.

Hugs

Sassy :)

Lori,

Hope you're able to get home early today and are able to get some rest. Hope you feel better. I'd say you've had more than your fair share of being sick.

Hugs,

Susan

Good Morning,

It is still really windy and is rather chilly out there this morning. We've been really fortunate that the trees across the street from us haven't come down especially after seeing some of the pictures from around the area. We've really been watching where we've been parking our cars.

I got in about 30 minutes of cardio when again I was interrupted by a family member yelling at me that the bbq had fallen over-and what exactly I was supposed to do about that when DH was right there. Guess Mom needs to know everything immediately. BIG SIGNS, BIG LOCKS needed around here either to cage me or cage them! I love them but they're driving me CRAZY!

It's Friday and I'm really glad about that. Grocery shopping after work and no planning after that.

Hoping that everyone feels fit and fabulous today and if it's not such a fit and fabulous day that you'll be feeling better soon.

I love Kohl's and the deals they have! I'd gotten rid of all my store credit cards because they never offer anything special beyond the day you signed up for them, but I got a Kohl's card last year because they actually give you extra discounts during the year. They don't sell girls' slips though - I'll have to go to Sears, Penney's or Belks for that.

Today, getting back into UB and Abs. Also gotta call my partner in the Mom's group for organizing the Birthday Party for Jesus, since I didn't get around to that on Wednesday. Other than that? Cleaning up the living room. Toy carnage ;^).

Good morning, everyone!

My plans are to have a better day than yesterday. Therefore, anything I accomplish will be an improvement. My workout will be treadmill, abs, and weights. There's a quick run to the grocery store planned after work; I'm not sure what we need, but there's a space in the fridge I need to fill. Something psychological - I hate a sparsely filled fridge.

Treating myself to Starbucks caffe mocha (decaf nonfat, but with whipped cream) while I wait for DH to pick me up tonight.

I love Land's End; the box containing the new mattress pad was on the front step when we arrived home last night. From on-line order to arrival - 3 days, no special handling requests. Amazing.

The new stove is arriving Tuesday. I can't wait to see exactly what's behind and under the old one, after the more than 15 years we've been in the house and who knows how long the previous owner had old Gertie before we moved in.

Have a great day!

Donna

Lori and Sassy - Feel better soon! I hope those colds don't lay you out all weekend.

Phyllis - So it's only 7 or 8 more sleeps 'til DH arrives home? It'll be nice to have him home for the holidays. Will he know about his new post when he arrives, or is that behind door no. 3?

Patty - New birds on Thanksgiving? Is that someone's idea of a bad joke? And I love your perspective on a mammo as a "photo op". Next time that machine gets a crush on me I'll be thinking of you and grinning.

Donna. You sound much better today. Glad to hear it!

Get that workout in. I feel so much better after mine today.

I've made it no secret that I'm addicted to Starbucks (or FourBucks as a friend of ours calls it since you can't get outta there for much under $4.00 each visit).

Mattress pad from land's end? Which one? I'm in need of one!

Hugs

Sassy
