Good morning everyone! Its a rainy but wonderful morning here in Eastern Arkansas! I'm in a very cheerful mood for a Monday....must be the holidays coming up and the fact that I only have to work two days this week! LOL!

I got to work way earlier than usual for me here lately so I decided to check out the board and start a post for the day to see what all of the rest of you are up to at the beginning of this brand new week?

I had a great weekend! Spent both Saturday and Sunday at deer camp with my Daddy and my brother! Hunted both days and saw lots of doe and even a few bucks. Couldn't get a good shot on any of them though but it was still a blast! My food was kind of sketchy this weekend! Didn't eat much healthy stuff......just mainly the fried stuff the men cooked! I know, I know....BAD!! :) My band is still tight but I managed to keep a little bit down. Between not eating much and all the exercise of walking around in the woods, I managed to lose 4 lbs. YAY! I was so happy!

Here's my Sunday:

B- scrambled eggs with cheese (made by the resident cook at the camp) --they were GREAT!

L- none

Snack-peanuts and pecans

D- fried deer tenderloin-1 piece but it was a halfway decent size
     a few bites of potato salad and a couple bites of baked beans

Snack- granola and a 1/4 banana (on the drive home from camp)

Ok.....ladies and gentlemen.....its time for me to get to work! Kids will be coming to the room in a few minutes! I can already hear some of them getting loud in the hallway so I better get out there and get them settled down if I want a smooth two days! Take care! Get to posting everyone......LOL!

Hi Karen and friends,

Sounds like a fun weekend in the woods.  It's always good to see some deer  even if you don't get a shot off.  I used to bow hunt, so I got used to seeing a lot of deer that I couldn't shoot at.   I always found that to be a good way of boosting the heart rate without having to run a mile.

Pretty quiet weekend at my house.  Just ran a few errands and such.  Got all the Christmas stuff down from the attic, but didn't start decorating yet.  I guess we'll have that fun this week.

Everyone is coming to our house for Thanksgiving.  Looking forward to enjoying the day without the ususal overeating/stuffed toad feeling.

Have a great day!

Steve

Hi Karen,

Quiet day here with just the dogs. Got my nails done first thing this morning, took 15 boxes to the post office for Gary. He's been garage sale/estate shopping then selling things on ebay. He made more this weekend that what the State paid him to work, so I'll be happy to take my skinny hiny to the PO for him!
Finished up the grocery shopping, now just have to fold laundry and putter about. Got all the Saint Bella labeled and packaged, now the fun begins. Gary will take photos tonight so we can get it onto etsy.com and hopefully start getting some orders from there. Sure hope I can break even one of these days!!!

Well, I've sat enough now, so I'm gonna get.   Steve, that over stuffed toad feeling is unimaginable now, isn't it?

I cooked most of the day for my husband.  It was his birthday and he wanted liver and onions of all things, and a lemon meringue pie for dessert.  I ended up getting a really good foot rub out of it so that was a good trade in my opinion, lol.  This morning I have been priming the walls in the living room and hallway.  Getting ready to repaint everything before we change out the carpet.

Hey gang,
Glad to report in and say that today I feel ALMOST like me.  Yesterday was more run down and recoup from Saturdays day at ER, but today,  I have gotten out and about.

Went to the pharmacy this morning and got some meds filled, and they have an awesome gift shop up front, so I showed the ladies things I would love to have for Christmas.  My sister drew my name, and sadly to say, she doesnt know me well enough to know what I like!!!  Shes only been my sister 34 years, maybe one day, she'll figure it out.  Anyway, picked out some candles, some perfume, and just little odds and ends, so the ladies can fix me up for Christmas.

Went to the Dollar Store and just looked. Walked and looked, no major shopping there, just coffee creamer.  Went to the Civic Center and walked on the treadmill 20 minutes.  I have decided that the weight is not going to fall off, and if I want to get rid of it, I have to do something about it, besides eat and wonder why I dont lose weight.  I need to get this tummy back off, and have no one to blame but me if I dont work it off. Going to do the walking thing this week, still kinda weak from the sickness.  Next week we will start over with the situps and try a few on the elliptical.  Slow and easy is better than none at all.

Went and picked my aunt up from work, and now I need to go buy some water.  Gotta love buying water, NEVER take is for granted, my dear people.

Susan, Congrats on the labels, I know you are happy to get started.  If I could sell and buy on Ebay, I'd be in business, but I end up shopping more than selling, lol.  No one wants my stuff, and I dont wanna buy then resale, so congrats to Gary for being the man of the hour on Ebay!!!

Isnt it exciting to think of the holidays and not focus on the food??  I am amazed at the amount of food that we used to consume and never think about it, B/C it was the HOLIDAYS!!!  Makes no sense does it?

Have a great Tuesday, Im gonna try and get some stuff done for the job, they have been so good to me, I need to return the favor now that Im feel ing like a human!!

I worked all day today which MOSTLY consisted of driving around.  I was lucky though and it didn't rain here so much as it was just muddy from raining overnight.  I'm getting a headache now, so not a good way to END the day.  But the REST of the day was thankfully just fine. 

Here was my Sunday.....
