Good Morning,

A very warm and humid morning here on LI. We had thunderstorms and rain come through yesterday afternoon. We even had a tornado watch in effect.

I didn't get anything accomplished yesterday. I was out with DD most of the day helping her get her the candy for her favors. We ended up meeting DH at the apartment to get everything into the apartment. Quite the workout considering it's a 3rd floor walk up. It's funny how it looked like so much more sitting in my living room. We got that job done not a minute too soon before the heavens opened up! I paid my bills last night and was horrified to find one that had completely fallen off the bill paying radar. First time ever that I was late never mind completely not knowing the bill was late....really late. I have to try to rectify that situation today. I really need to get my brain together. It's scattered in too many places.

I've been trying to catch up with things this morning. Laundry folding, laundry whirling and twirling, trying to put my living room back in order. It's also back to the workplace this morning. I just hope that the day and week ahead passes quickly. I feel like this summer is passing by so quickly and I haven't enjoyed it at all. The weather has been terrible and just too much going on.

Anyway that's the day ahead. Hope you all have a magnificent Monday!

Susan

Good Morning Everyone,


This is definitely a week where a plan is needed in my life.

Honest is good Miss P! And going on that note I so do not want to be here today. I live having 4 days off, lol. Unfortunatley I also like a paycheck. I got myself up at 6:30 with Bill, made the bed right away, folded the whites laundry that was in the dryer, threw the lights into the dryer and then threw a batch of darks into the washer. While that was filling I fed the two cats, put away the white laundry, made some tea, cut up some fresh vegtables and put them in a marinade for olive oil, garlic and soy sauce, and then took a shower. Got ready for work and wham here I am. Business is so slow and boss is in a panic because I did not set a closing at all last week and it does not look like I will have any for this week. I have several coming during the middle of August but that does not pay the bills now. I understand his panic and worries me too because no closings then no paycheck. Our weather is very humid this morning and we did not get the rains that Susan did yesterday although we did have talk about possible thunder showers yesterday and today. Right now I see blue skies. My FIL is off today and he has plans to take Katie to the movies and then over to Dave & Busters. Just like old days, lol. I have to run to the bank at lunch time and then when I get out of here its the normal after hours stuff. I have invited my dad to come for steak and grilled vegtables tonight so I want to set the table up ahead of time and this way I can relax a little. I also want to do my exercise tape after work, I am going to shoot for 3 days of some form of exercise this week. Well boss ran to pick up exwife at the ferry dock....don't ask, lol. Coworker just go in about 15 minutes ago and well that is it for excitement. Have a good day ladies!

Hi, everyone!


I've got a few minutes to check in after quickly reading about your lives over the last week or so.

Hello all...

I went through the posts for today, but I have no idea what happened over the weekend except for Susan and something about candy for the wedding favors and moving DD into apartment. Yes...a third floor walk up sure is a workout. Margie...hope the hair gets fixed the way you like it. Karen...nice to see you posting. Deb LI...nice plan today and this week with exercising and eating. Enjoy the 4 days off while you can. Cha Cha Deb...ZUUUUUUUUUMBA! I think that says it all. Patty...what are your plans? Hope you and all have a good productive me week...get some staycation going.

I am subbing Zumba tonight and I am psyched about it especially after taking the all day Zumba B2 workshop in Queens. What a disaster that was with the GPS directing. Anyway...it was great and I have to do some practicing today. Can't wait to add the belly dancing song to my playlist that our group choreographed yesterday. Tanya is a great presenter of Zumba and very inspiring.

I don't know how much posting/reading I will be doing today. I am having a very hard day after new developments with the "RAT". He won't allow DD to go to Maine with me and the girls so he is taking them instead. This is really hard on DD since he has little or no patience, he will be alone with them in the car of over 6 hours each way, and now his family is probably going to take up the slack while they are there. That is the only thing that is keeping us sane...knowing that his family will do their best to keep the girls happy. So, no vacation for DD and I...just a week of worry. I lost it all when I got a message from his aunt asking me how I was doing...his family is already in Maine.

Ok...off to practice some Zumba and hopefully not eat much. The scale hit an all new time high!!!!! And that is after hours of Zumba yesterday.

Bye for now...
Grace

Keep on keeping on!

Keep on keeping on!

Deb I did marinate the veggies and yes I plan on cooking them on the grill. I have this flat, slotted pan that goes on the grill. Last time I used it I did not spray it and lots of stuff stuck, this time I will spray it with Pam then put the veggies on. I have not cooked them or marinated them like this before so I will let you know how it turns out. LOL, I was throwing some of this and some of that this morning into the bag.....sliced zucchini, string beans, vidalia onion, red pepper and green pepper!


The training went well. She told us some basics which we already knew but other stuff we didn't. She was with us for about 1 1/2 hours but only chaged Billy for the hour. We sat and went over stuff first and I tried to write as much as possible down. We then went ahead and practiced stuff with her, him and us. We now have to follow thru and practice during the week. I tried a few commands this morning and he listened. She will come next Saturday again and see how its going and give us a few new things to work on. We are doing hand signals as well as voice commands. Interesting, just difficult to fit everything in.


Pool situation..........status quo. Nothing new although we were promised again that this would be the week for work to start. Once something changes you gals will be the first to know. Listen if this ever gets done you really, really, really are ALL invited to my house for the a week of summer vacation for the next FOF trip. We can do Montauk Point out east, wine tasting along the North Shore of LI, we can do a day in New York City.......and I am sure I can find a cabana boy or two.........my boys have some cute friends, lol. Lunch time have to fly.........banking!
