Morning Danielle and everyone,
I am getting ready to leave for work after I take the recycling to the curb.  Drinking my usual smoothie.

Last night I had one of those dreams that seems to go on and on forever.  I dreamed (dreamt?) that Pam T. was cleaning out the drawers around her house and told me I had to be there in order for her to finish.  So this whole dream was me following Pam around her house watching her clean.  Weird, huh?

QOTD-I very rarely do either.  If I sit down to read or watch a movie, then I fall asleep.  I love going to see movies in the theater....I never fall asleep then!  So I guess I'm a TV kind of person.  If someone gives me a good chick lit book, then I'll read it.

Hope you all have a good day!

Good morning! Having my coffee.  Dub's still sleeping.  SO CLOSE to sleeping through the night.  He woke up 3 times last night, but I didn't go to his room (very hard) and he went right back to sleep in less than a minute all three times.  YAY!!  I did watch him on the video monitor.  I wanted to go in there and snuggle him, but I KNOW he needs to know how to soothe himself and get himself back to sleep.  So, while my sleep was still interrupted, I did get a bit more sleep than I usually do.

QOTD:  I would much rather read than watch a movie.  Here's the problem, though.  When I get a book, I want to read it, cover to cover, without putting it down.  Yeah, I can't do that anymore.  Serioulsy, I would just forget about everything else and read the book.   I've only read a book or two since Dub came along, because I could only read a little at a time.  Lost interest in the book and had to keep reminding myself what was going on.  LOL....the book wasn't stellar, mind you.  But I could've easily read it in 4 or 5 hours and was frustrated that I couldn't...so I tend to not read when I can't read for long lengths of time.  But I'm hopeful, as hubby and I got some good books for Christmas.  He's already read them both.  I'm jealous.

Good morning everyone!

Just fixing a vanilla protein coffee with a splash fo SF Cinnamon Dulce flavoring.  Yum.  I really think coffee has become my transfer addiction.

QOTD: I am like Brenda, if I sit down to read or watch a movie I end up falling asleep.  But I also have been know to fall asleep in the theatre too!!  As a matter of fact, Steve and I were going to see the new Mel Gibson movie Saturday but we made a nice dinner first.  So after finishing eating he said 'we better just stay home and watch movies on TV because you will be sleeping in the theatre after that dinner'.  He is so right! 

But, if given the choice, I'd much rather watch a movie than read.  I've never been a big reader. My mom and sisters & SIL's are all big readers and always bring bags of bookds to each other and trade, etc.  

Have a great day everyone! 

I can't believe it's FEB already!!  Counting down the days until spring begins!

Nan,

Is this the protein tea only with instant coffee?

Hi KRisty!

No, it's not.  I just make my own every morning.  I use regular coffee, a scoop of vanilla Body Fortress protein powder and some Splenda. 

I mix the splenda (3 packets) and the protein powder in the bottom of my cup with a little bit of water and stir it up real good to get rid of any lumps.  Then I add coffee. (I'm bad - about 14-16 oz).  Then, I add some flavoring.  My latest favorite is some I bought at Starbucks.  It's called Cinnamon Dulce (it's sugar free).  Yummy!  I also have used SF vanilla and caramel that I get at WalMart. 

Are you a coffee drinker?

Morning All,

Just decaf tea for me this morning. I am going over to my folks for breakfast.  I am having blood work done later today.  I am going to a new endocrinologist next week. 

QOTD:  I love movies.  I don'****ch a lot of tv but I love movies.  I seem to go to the theater in spurts.  I have not gone much lately. I know what you mean about falling asleep though.  My DH would always fall asleep in the theater.  I always wanted to pick the movie because I was really the only one watching it but every now and again he would insist on picking one.  Saying he would not fall asleep but he always did.  I think the worst was when he picked Walk the Line, I hate Johnny Cash.  I was so mad.  Sure enough he fell asleep 5 minutes in.  Funny thing is I really liked the movie. 

Have a good day.

Good morning to all!  I am drinking my tea and siting in my home office.  I started working at 7:30 a.m. but just now made it here. 

QOTD:  I love to read, never get enough time to read, so I would definitely pcik a good book.  I do like watching movies and going to the cinema, but that is really something we don't do a lot.  I'm a big homebody, especially in the middle of winter when leaving the house reminds me that I live in Michigan and not some warm sunny spot!  Give me a good book and a hot cup of tea .. . . I am a happy gal. 

Linda

Good Morning All

Plain ol water for me this morning.  Followed up by a protein drink.  I think it will be tropical punch this morning. 

Love Love Love to read.  I had a hard time when the boys were babies for the same reasons as you Tina.  But now, I will read anything I can get my hands on, especially in the winter months.

Have a good one!
