Sunday Roll Call

Hello everyone

For whatever reason I wasn't able to sleep much last night.  I went to bed after midnight and I was up at 3am.  Oh well every once in awhile I have a problem with sleep...for the most part I am a good sleeper so I am not going to complain.  Plus it's Sunday so I can always take a nap.

I have nothing to do today but some chores.  I have my floors to do.  I am a weird clean freak I know but every so often instead of just mopping I like to get down on my hands and knees and scrub the floor with one of those magic erasers.  I don't care how much you think you are cleaning with that mop...when you use a magic eraser you won't believe how dirty your floors really are and I can get into all of the nooks and under everything better.  I do the same thing in the bathroom too.  And while I'm down there I do the baseboards too and wipe down the kitchen cabinets.  It sounds like a lot but it usually takes about an hour.  I'm also going to vacuum and do laundry.   

I will try that recipe again this week.  I promise you I will get the temp right on the oven this time!!!   

I will workout later in the morning.  I think I will do my toes today after I workout.  I think today is a good pedicure day.  I think I am going to do a really nice Spring color...I am going to do my toes in a bright lavender!!!  Yes...that's it.  My toes will be all Springy.  This is something about me...I have tons of nail polish.  I have every color you can think of...dozens of shades of pink, purple, coral, blue, green.  I think I may have 50 bottles or more.  I have this thing about nail polish colors...and I am always buying more...hahaha!!!  I always do my toes (no matter the season).  When I go have a pedicure...I usually bring my own nail polish.  Why???  Because then I can touch up when it chips.  If you use their colors then you're screwed when it starts chipping.

I guess I will get going.  Have a nice relaxing day everyone.  I will see you all later....Bye   

Good Morning.

A bit more snow this morning. No problem.

I posted a pizza dip receipe. It is good on a day like today.

Yesterday, I got my stuff done, sat down to watch a movie, and promtly fell asleep. Needless to say, I didn'****ch it.

Not to much for today. Just laundry and dinner. I may get started and clean out my pantry.

Crystal, I always have my toes painted too. right now, I have glittery gold on them, but I think they will be going purple.

Nancy, I am glad that you are able to sleep late when you are home on weekends. I wish I could.

Have a great day,

Hugs, Lisa

Hi Crystal and IL Peeps,

I had the opposite issue with sleeping last night.....as soon as it got dark (6P) I fell asleep on the couch. I decided to go lay down in bed and woke up at 6a this morning!!!!! 12 hours. My hubby kept coming upstairs to see if I was breathing. I guess those couple nights of GERD last week had me tuckered out. 

We never left the house yesterday. We just hunkered in and ate all day! I made a big pot of soup. I also made my hubby a big breakfast and defrosted tamales from Christmas we still had left. I sipped my protein drinks and ate greek yogurt. It is amazing how much I dont eat anymore. 

I do find since I exercise I cannot sit and watch TV much anymore. I feel too antsy. It drives my husband nuts. He wants to sit and watch a movie and I want to clean something. I do not work out on the weekend. That may be why I am so antsy.

Today we are going to church and then who knows? 

Nancy, it has been a cat love fest at my home as well this weekend. The boys are all so lovey-dovey. As I type, I am surrounded by 3/15 lb boys all vying for my attention. It's the best.

Everyone, enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Hugs,

Sharon

Sharon-  I was a a big couch potato and I find more and more that I can't just sit and watch TV anymore either.  What usually ends up happening is I have the TV on and I am doing things while it's on.  I have a DVR and record a lot of shows and I am no****ching my recorded shows either.  My recorder is 87% full.  I will have to watch or delete soon.

Back when I was morbidly obese I had so many shows I would watch and keep up with.  Now they are all falling by the way side.  I am just not interested in sitting around and watching TV every single day like I used to.  I tend to listen to music more and more now and busy myself with other things. 

I think that nervous energy is part of us that got us to be folks who needed weight loss surgery.

Super bowl is too late in the day.  Almost over my head cold but took a nap yesterday and still went to bed early last night and slept late this morning.  I was up for an hour at 3am though.

Part of that may have been the listening to a guy talk about creating instances of an emulator for a 1979 project computer board.  Even I have a limit for such things if I am not actually doing them.

Randy-  I'm glad you are feeling better.  I am too...but I mistakenly stopped taking the double dose of Allegra and the stuffiness started coming back within 4-6 hours.  So I am back to taking the double dose.  I am going to the doctor tomorrow and see what he says about this.

Seems I was the only one with problems sleeping last night....hahaha!!!  And surprisingly I am full of energy right now.  Maybe I will crash early this evening.

Good Afternoon!

Right now we are watching the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet.  It is so cute.  It will keep repeating all evening.  The halftime is kittens. So creative.

No plans for today.  Tomorrow I need to run errands.  I am enjoying relaxing and doing nothing.  That will end tomorrow.  We also had more snow last night.  It is great when you dont have to go out in it. 

Everyone have a great afternoon!
