MONDAY MORNING COFFEE TALK

Good Morning!

I started my morning with a protein smoothie . . the blueberries are great right now!

Working this morning and I am on days this week so being able to go out for a walk in the evening is going to be great, I have been working so much that when I am off it seems there are to many weeds to pull and to much laundry to just put my shoes on and hit the road.

QOTD - What did you do for the weekend?  Did you take any time for yourself?

On the few weekends I have off I went back to waiting tables in one of the many local bars so I worked Friday night, had a date on Saturday night and had to work on Sunday.  

I did spend 30 minutes on the porch reading on Saturday afternoon . . I am loving summer!

Have a great day!

Kristy

Morning All,

I had Sunday off.  I visited an Aunt and Uncle.  It was about an hour and a half ride from my house.  It is all farm land by them so it was so pretty, so green.  I also have today off, I am taking my son to she show maybe we will see two.  I love doing that with  him.  I picked up hours at work this week, so I will be very busy.

My morning started with a protein coffee, now its gone :-(

My weekend was very good - went downstate to my sisters for my nephews bride-to-be bridayl shower.  Took my mom shopping for a new dress afterwards, and I got one too.  Then hung out with my sister the rest of the weekend.  We went to an open house at Applewood (Mott estate) in Flint yesterday - that was very nice.  Her son works there as a landscape designer.  They also had a "Jack and the Beanstalk" play put on by the Kearlsey players I think its called - very cute and well done. 

Not a lot of time for myself this weekend - besides the time I spent driving int he car! Does that count?

Now its back to work... but its a necessary evil I suppose!

 

Good morning everyone!

I started my morning with some coffee w/sugar free hazelnut creamer & splenda.  Love that stuff!  Then I had some blueberries and Carbmaster and some watrmellon.  and I just finished up some tuna salad.  Geez, I've eaten a lot already and it's only 10 am! 

Kristy - I am loving the blueberries right now too!  I've been going thru 2-3 quarts a week. 

QOTD:  This is the first weekend in a couple weeks I havent worked.  I was down in Chelsea and went flower shopping for the wedding.  I found some gorgeous hanging baskets that are just huge and will look great hanging from the gazebo.  Then Sunday my daughter and I went shoe shopping.  I had picked out a pair already, but both the girl's said 'you can't wear those with your dress' and when I showed them to my mom even she agreed!  I found some at DWS that my daughter picked out that are adorable and match perfectly.  Now I just have to find earings and a bracelet and I'm all set.  Less than 3 weeks away!!

I am loving summer too!!  But it's going too fast.  I wish the humidity would go away!

Have a great day everyone!

Nan

COngratulations on your date!

I am about to make a protein shake.

On Sunday I started using my treadmill again.  I got in 45 min not counting the warm up/cool down.  I also got about 21,000 steps in.  I am shocked I only hit 10,000 a few times before.  However, I was walking a lot around the yard and back and forth to my mom's all day.  Maybe it's right maybe not.

I didn't do much else other than cleaning a lot. 

Jimi

Thanks Jimi . . it has been many years since I have had a real date.  He is a great guy and he calls just to say he is thinking about me . .  OMG I feel like I am 16 . . lol

But just like everything in my life I am taking it one day at a time . . however he did make hotel reservations for us in August . . we are going to Mackinaw for 3 days so I am already excited about that!

Kristy

Kristy - that is so exciting!!!  He sounds very nice!  You deserve that!

Morning Kristy and all,

Had my protein shake this am....Kristy's right the blueberries are great right now.  We buy a ton of them this time of the year and freeze them for our protein shakes for the rest of the year (we've bought about 35 lbs of them so far).

Q:  We went to see Sting w/ the philharmonic orchestra, it was pretty good.  The rest of the weekend was very relaxing.  I wi**** was a bit cooler out (sorry Tina), I hate hiding in my house, we're stuck in the house all winter, I want my windows open!

Have a great week all,

Edie

I have had some tea, then greek yogurt and now some Fuzzy Navel protein mix over ice.  And a plum, very ripe and juicy.  I do love summer and all the fruits and veggies.  Can't wait for the tomatoes to be ready!

QOTD:  My husband and daughter were camping all week and came home on Friday, so I had piles and piles of laundry all weekend.  But we did go out for breakfast on Saturday, just DH and me, so that was nice.  And yesterday we did a big grocery shopping trip, then were lazy for the rest of the day.  Nothing like a lazy Sunday to help ease you into another work week.

Hey Kristy and everyone,

Bowchicka wow wow....Kristy's got an overnighter!  Oh la la!

QOTD-I just ran errands.  Got to see my brother for a bit.  Teased him about looking like Lindsey Lohan with the tether on.  He didn't think it was funny.

Nothing super exciting.  I did nap with Nick on the couch for about 40 min.  That was the best part of the whole weekend!

Be happy today!
