Tuesday Spring Talk

Good morning Michigan!  

Drinking my coffee strong and black.  DH left for work early this morning has tons of grading to get done before we go on vacation.  He was so sweet, he didn't wake me, left quietly, butttttttt, he left the dogs out and didn't lock them in the house, so that means Taylin, my black lab, went out to the fence and barked at every morning creature, grrrrrrr.  So she now has her coller on so she knows she wasn't supposed to be barking and she is sulking in the kitchen. 

QOTD : Signs of spring -   I know spring is just around the corner, the buckets are on the Maple Trees ! ! !  Woo Hoo ! ! !  I also know that March has come in like a lamb do you think it won't remember to go out like a lion?

Morning

Just finished my toast and drinking my crystal light tea... I am just gonna hang out around the house today. I got out for a little while yesterday but since tomorrow is super busy I am staying home today.

QOTD: I cannot wait for spring. I love seeing my bulbs popping up and the plants starting to come out... It makes me smile because I know it means it is time to garden!

Lazy day for me today.  Staying home cleaning some.  My big plan for the day is to make soup.  I don't know why I like soup so much.  I never eat the broth just the insides of the soup.  I guess there is something about it all soaking together that gives it the great taste. 

QOTD:  I can not wait for spring.  If only the snow would go away.  I want to start walking outside. I have even thought about buying a bike. 


I have a non-blooming pear tree in my yard.  It always has bee's in it.  I have tried smoking them out, it did not work.Is there any other way to get rid of them.It is by my front door.  I would hate to cut it down.  I have suffered with them for  3 years now.  I am tired of them.

Hi all -

Drinking my usual fake latte this morning.  Still battling the headache that started yesterday ... not sure if the nausea is a result of the pain and blurry vision or the other way around.  There have been germs going around the office lately and I sure hope they didn't land on me.  I don't have time to be sick.

QOTD -- spring!  oh glorious spring!  I noticed yesterday (and again this morning) that when I walked out my front door on the way to work that the bird were singing super loud.  Seems they are just as happy about the sunshine as I am.

Pam

Good morning everyone,

Finished my coffee and had breakfast of that brocolli/bacon/cashew salad.  Yum, haven't had that in a while. It tasted so good.  I even threw in some chunks of chicken for some extra protein.  Boy was it filling though.  I'm used to a Carbmaster and a banana for my breakfast.

QOTD:  I'm like Pam, the last couple of mornings I have heard the birds singing outside!!  A sure sign of spring.  I can't wait.  I am tired of being cold!

Good Morning Everyone!

Plain water for me this morning.  I had my string cheese earlier. :)

QOTD~  A sure sign of spring for me is when I see the weight/load restriction signs go up.  I dont know why, but that always is the biggest sign for me. Always makes me smile. 

Have a great day all!

My usual coffee with protein this morning, now I've already eaten all my snacks I brought to work and now working on my lunch... looks like a grazing snacking day - ugh!

QOTD:  Haven't heard any birds, but the sun is out!  YEA!  We definitely don't see enough of that here in Northern MI.  Still have a lot of snow... but hopefully it will get melting soon.

As far as the bees go - you may want to call an exterminator and see what they say.  If there's a queen in there, they can move her and the bees will follow...

 

Good Afternoon,

I started the morning with Swiss Miss and vanilla protein.  I add a little dab of hazelnut sf syrup.  It is very tasty.  I also had my 2 ounces of fiber one key lime yogurt with my actigall capsule contents.
For lunch had a couple of ounces of king crab meat.  For a treat, we have been buying the crab legs at Costco.  Since I cannot even finish one of them, it doesn't really cost that much for our meal.

I took my little shih-tzu to the dog groomer's today for a haircut.  I really didn't want to since it's winter and all, but it has to be done.  He loves to go outside and dad takes him and our english bull dog for a walk everyday after work.  I hope he doesn't freeze to death!

QOTD - Yesterday, I was doing a lot of running around and I actually was able to roll down my window and let some fresh air in the car.  That with the sun shining and the birds singing are a sure sign of spring.
