Wed.

Well my Husband is flying home as I type. His plane is taking off at 5:30 am and he should be landing in Indy at 10:20 am Indiana time that is. Hes going with me to the gym this afternoon. It will be my first day back since my surgery. I really need it. Ive been so depressed the last 4 days. I hate it when Im all alone and I have so many days off in a row. Im off again this coming weekend and he will be gone again. However its my class reunion and I have alot of things going on. Im going to the big football game ...where my neice will be cheering too. I can show her off to all my schoolmates....LOL Also the Begals will play the colts....should be a good match up. If its like last yrs game. Of course my family all supports Cincy even though last yr I was routing for the colts...only took me 10 yrs of living here....lol Well everyone have a great week .... Mariah

well poo..........your hubby needs to stay put at home longer...... Ed and I went a few weeks ago to a colts game and our rear ends were hurting from sitting, we left at 1/2 time.......LOL... enjoy the gym......i know it is gonna feel so good while you are doing it... do you come to indy to pick your hubby up or does he park and fly? asking cos i thought if you were coming to pick him up maybe you could leave a little earlier and i could meet you some place. i live right by the airport

Hehehe Mariah. I've lived here for a little over 6 years, and I root for anyone who ISN'T the Colts . I'm more of a Seahawks and Cheifs fan, but Seahawks already whipped them preseason, and they don't even play KC this year, so not much fun for me football wise. But that's okay, I've always been more of a baseball girl anyways, and the Indianas just don't cut it for me. This town should ditch the pacers and get a real baseball team- I can't stand the squeaky shoes at basketball games LOL. I'm a little confused at my weight right now. My scale says I've been steadily floating within the same 4 pound range (266-270) but everytime I go to the doctor, I have lost more weight according to their scale. Monday they weighed me in at 263 for Pete's sake! My scale has never said anything below 264 yet, and that was about a week ago. Seems like the only cravings I'm having are for bad things too- Peanut butter twix and cheetos. I've never been a big Cheetos fan, but man they tasted good! I suppose it isn't horrible to give in a bit to them, I just keep all things in moderation. About once a week I give in to whatever it is I've been daydreaming about all week, given it's something mr. pouch will tollerate. I had been day dreaming of a big fat greasy chimichanga, but the ouch says no to those types of things, so I don't even try. The pouch seems particularly sensitive to meat these days. Not only that but the thought of even eating meat seems to make me nauseated anymore. If I think about what I'm actually eating, I just can't do it. How's that foot feeling today Sherri? Better I hope. I'm hoping for a nice day off work where I can lounge around and do whatever I feel like doing today. I'm also hoping the rest of you have a fabulous day too!

Darrah, I feel the same way about the IU basketball as u do about the Pacers. Well actually since Larry Bird left coaching the Pacers I havent cared of them either.

Hey, Don't sit at home depressed, by yourself!! Call me and we could think of something better than that to do! I mean it!! Are you excited about the reunion or nervous? I have never been to any professional football game before. Growing up in Oregon we didn't have a team. A lot of people were Seahawk fans but not my family. I did however get to go to a ton of Blazer games! Big fans!!! I have been thinking about the gym. What am I going to do when I have to close the pool for the year? Let me know how it goes, I bet it will be fun since Andy is going with you. Marianne, that store sounds great! I just am not sure were Southern Plaza is. If anyone knows please post! Thanks, I just haven't lived here that long. Sherri, have you used the plateau breaker? And did it work? Thanks again for the info. I hope everyone has a great day, Carmen

My Goddaughter is a huge Seahawks fan. The live in the burbs of Seattle. Last time I was out there we went to a Mariners game but I prefer football but I was there in July....so baseball it was. Carmen I may just have to call u this weekend. I just figured with the kids in school all week u would be to busy with them on weekend. This weekend is my last weekend off and then I work two weekends. Im so looking forward to Dec when Andy wont have to go to LA anymore. Then we will be looking for a place outside of Indy to live. Probably outside of Plainfield...if theres any country left over there. He wants in the country with about 5 acres or more and I just want close to town....LOL Im such a city girl...and hes such a country boy.....LOL He used to have a big place out near Jamestown when I met him but he sold it to move here with me. mariah

Good Morning Everyone, Hope everyone is doing well! Hope you all have a GREAT day, also! I am doing ok,sorry I haven't posted more, I am still lurking daily tough! I have been so busy with school and all. It is going alright, just need to learn to juggle just a FEW more things. Plus I have been working F/T again this month for my boss, so I am really stretched a little thin. Trying to take my son back and forth as well as myself, I never realized how much help having a school bus pick him up was, really I did, but now I REMEMBER-REALLY!!!! Darrah, I am so excited for you, glad everything is going alright! Sheri, hope your back to your walking and BATHS soon! Mariah, call me sometime, don't sit at home bored and lonely, that is no fun. Well gotta leave for work, I know I left some(one) out, I miss ya all and hope everyone is having a wonderful journey! Hugz Dawn

Dawn, Just got back from the doc's. I can take showers now. Woo-hoo! No hot tub though. I can tan as long as I have my foot covered. No problem! He put me back on celebrex to try and get rid of the swelling. I go back in 2 weeks. Sherri

Carmen, Southern Plaza is on 31 just north of the 465 intersection. If you drive up from the south...take 31 north and just after Thompson road is the 465 turn off the next light is southern plaza. Turn left and you are there! There is a Kroger there and a strip mall with AJ Wright, Old Country Buffet and lots of other stores.. I love Dots! Everything is so cheap and trendy! They go from the itty bity sizes to a 3x. The most expensive thing I have ever seen there was $22 So go check it out. HUGS! Marianne

Good morning everyone! Sleep just didn't want to come to me again last night. I don't know what the deal is. I have to get ready to head to the doctor's soon though so guess I'll try to take a nap later maybe. Hopefully the incision looks ok today and I get a green light to take a shower!! If it were my other foot, I could have taken a bath and kept it on the outside of the tub. With the way my bathroom is situated though, can't do that with it being the right foot. Yep, it's still hurting so I'm kinda anxious to see if it still looks as swelled as it did last week. I'll let you all know later what is said. Carmen...I did try the plateau buster once. It did work for me but it's very difficult to stick to. After I lost 10 lbs while on it, the time period was up and my weight loss slowed back to a crawl. Be sure you are on a plateau before starting it...which means NO weight loss for at least 6 weeks. You all can have football..no matter the team! Yuck! The only sport I'm really into at all is small track car racing...and in person only. Bill & I are well matched in that area. You all have a great day! Sherri
