~*~Wild Wacky Wonderful Wednesday~*~

Good morning everyone!I wanted to toss out lots of possibilities for Wednesday!Anyone have a "W" word to add?

It's the middle of the week;how's it going so far for you?Are you on target for fitness, health or personal goals?Are you optimistic about where you are and where you're going?Or are you like me and wondering "where am I?", "How did I get here???" and "when will the Cabana boys show up??" :)

A few months ago I saw a ring that I love. I decided if I stuck to some plans I would get it.I think originally my goal was to get it once I lost a few pounds.But last week I looked over my exercise journal and realized how far I've come with my running and my weights.Back on track with both and most importantly enjoying them both.Plus I thought about how much I want to make this summer count.Enjoy the weather that allows me to get out, enjoy the more relaxed tone of summer and all the other things that I love so much about it.Yesterday my ring came and when I look at it I think of all those things.I don't think about the pounds or the waistline. I think about the health and happiness I have the opportunity for each day.

They are callin for a wild weather day!Severe storms coming thru and bringing up to 3 inches of rain.Next week the millions of cicadas are due to arrive!!Should be interesting!

Hope you each have a "Whatever you want it to be "Wednesday!Enjoy your day!!

Miss P

I feel so out of it. I've never bought anything from QVC or eBay!!!

e-Bay is still a mystery to me. I'm very satisfied with QVC - if I ever have to return something and have issues with it, I'm sure I'll change my tune.

Sometimes I'm in the mood to go out shopping, sometimes not - mostly not, because I don't want to deal with salespeople who behave like you're imposing on them if you ask for help or the ones in the snooty shops who look down their noses at you like you shouldn't deign to shop in their store. With you, it seems the excitement of the hunt and the thrill of bagging the prize is still part of the process - witness the navy pumps .

It's a slow day at the ranch today. I just visited the site, and I saw two rings that were similar to your description. Both are really eye-catching. Wear it in good health!

LOL! Yes, I do like the thrill of the hunt, which I guess is why I'm so into looking for sharks' teeth. As for the women in the snooty shops, I figure if they were "anybody" they wouldn't have to be working in the shops! ;-)

Looks like more QVC fans here besides me. I do have to not watch that channel as much as possible. I do get some nice things though and I have been pretty much happy with everything I have gotten. Saw the TS and controlled myself not to get it.

I saw that TS on an unusual early morning clothing show as we were running out the door and thought it was cute, but then figured it'd be gone before noon. Imagine my surprise when I tuned in around 9:55 at the tail end of the usual PM Style and saw it was still available in the turquoise AND in my size, and for such a great price. I figured it was meant to be. Could have it by Saturday.

Hi, ladies. Work, work and ds have kept me VERY busy the past week and a half! So glad when ds' activities slow down after next week. My eating has been very good, but I've had zilch time for exercise. It's awful, but meetings and baseball have cut into the workout time. Baseball will be over soon, thank goodness. I'm hoping to get in a weights workout tonight after Dillard's - depends on how tired I am, though. Good news is that my ankle is better, bad news is that I pulled a muscle in my back again. I'm having a difficult time waking up at 5 a.m. when I don't get to sleep until 11 p.m., so have missed my cardio. I need more hours in a day!!!

Well, back to the grind!
