Friday Roll Call

Hello everyone

Well my interval training is paying off!!!  My plateau is history!!!  I lost 3 lbs this week!!!  Yeah!!!!  Every first of the month I check my measurements and I lost 3 1/2 inches in March!!!  I always lose the most in my tummy. 

It's Friday...YEAH!!!!

Today I am working (of course what's new).  Then working out, and grocery shopping and then Walgreens.  That's my day in a nut shell...I know it's exciting.  I was thinking about going to the Goodwill here by work and see if there's anything good there.  I don't know we'll see.  It might be rainy so I might not feel like running around today. 

I hope everyone has a great day and enjoy your Friday!!!

Good Morning,

We may get some rain, but out East, they are being dumped on by snow. better them then us.

I seen we had a coule of newbies on yesterdays forum. welcome and come back to join us anytime!

Plan for today, pickup and sweep this cluttered house. During the work week, I just don't have the energy to clean house by the time I get home. I do try to keep up the dishes, laundry and bed during the week.

no other plans for today. Maybe go out to dinner tonight.

crystal, I am happy fpr your lost.

Huggers,

Not sure if I told you guys but I left the stay-at-home-mom world 6 weeks ago and have been working full-time, after 8 years at home. During that time, I was freelancing from home.

It's been interesting, to say the least. The office environment is different in so many ways since I was in it! So casual, so personal.

Well, anyway, I still zoom by here now again to see how you are all doing and see if anyone has questions about the DS.

Hope you are all doing well! Happy Friday!

Yea- I want a new DS doctor :P  I'm fed up with mine!  If I don't get an answer on Tuesday to why I can't eat solid food for the past 4 months and if he hands me one more vicodin Rx and tells me to eat through the pain and take a pain pill I'm going to losing it right there in his office I swear!  I've done all his damn tests and scans and stuff I want and answer now!  He just doesn't seem worried about it at all.  Pain, nausea, vomiting, difficulty swallowing even.  I end up eating mushy stuff because it hurts worse to eat solid food.  Blah

Hope you are enjoying being back to work!

Have a good weekend!

Lisa

Good Morning IL!

Wow, it's Friday and I haven't touched base.  I've read posts, but haven't posted.  So to catch up!!

Monica, so sorry about Gremlin.  It is so hard to lose a family member pet.  Congrats, too, on Pickles.  I'm sure she will help ease the pain, some.  I'm sure Morgan will love having "her" cat.  Chloe loves it when Roxie pays so much attention to her when she is at my house.  Lots of fun.

Dawn, glad to hear David's doxie is starting to feel some better.  Keep her from getting to active, but sounds like some good signs. 

Debbie, Congrats on 5.5 miles.  I just ordered a new Schwinn bike from Amazon, had it delivered to a local bike shop and they called yesterday and it is ready to pick up.  Will do that over the weekend.  I also order a digital speedometer (and one for Chloe's bike) so we could keep track of our biking...5 miles sounds like a long way...but I'm sure we can build up to it! 

Nancy, sorry work was frustrating.  You don't need that stress as you prepare for your surgery!!

Christine, read the article about the fire.  Hope everyone is starting to recover from the shock.

Crystal....you're my new hero.  Absolutely awesome.  You are like a exercise guru!  Keep it up (and I hope some of it rubs off on me).

Lisa, enjoy your day  off at home.!

Well, hope everyone has a super weekend.  Nothing special going on in my world.  Have a great weekend.

Chipotle can be unhealthy with lots of calories and carbs.  If you start adding in the tortilla, rice, beans, sour cream, cheese, meat...so on and so on.  But I am a plain person and prefer the less is best approach.  I get steak and cheese on my buritto.  If you look up the nutrtional facts that comes out to 580 calories, but I never eat all of the tortilla.  I eat maybe 1/2 or less of the tortills... so it comes out to about 440 calories.  Most people think it's boring the way I eat it but oh well...that's the way I like it.  Oh and the Chipotle by my house only charges me $2.59...they don't charge me for a full buritto!!!

How did this post end up coming from my account?!  Weird!

Good afternoon Crystal and the rest of Illinois!

Just a quick one for me.....working then off to the playhouse.  Opening night is next Friday and there is still lots to be done.  Olivia's play opens on Thursday, so we are swamped!

This is odd.....this is my post under someone else's name!  ODD!!!!

Thanks Georgie!

I looked into the VOM, but she is doing so much better with just the steroids we are going to wait and see.  The biggest problem now is catching her before she RUNS down/up the stairs or jumps on/off the couch.  We are keeping her crated most of the time, but feel bad and try to let her lay in the chair next to Todd in the evenings.

This morning she shot out of her cage and almost made it to the stairs before I caught up to her.  She is still walking a bit funny, but soes not seem to be in pain.  No problems in the potty department either!
