***Terrific Tuesday Roll Call***
Just a quick stop in to say hello - we had a GREAT night away on Sunday......
So work has been an absolute mayhem type night...not to mention I was sore already from the trainer and everything like that....and I've been running my butt off all night here. I was gonna do 7 straight days of the gym (Sat - Sun) but after Sat w/ personal trainer Sunday spin class and then Monday personal trainer and then tonight at work...the muscles absolutely need their repair time. So, I'm skipping the gym today and will go back on Wednesday morning.
I have two errands to run on the way home....then pack up some food for tonight take a shower and hopefully collapse into bed, not to be disturbed until work tonight.
It's a rough week work wise...and my dad has surgery on Wednesday finally....
Have a GREAT day - we are supposed to get up into the 50's by the weekend! Tank tops and shorts I tell ya!

Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses. 
WOHOOOO for 50 degrees! I am headed north for the weekend so it should be at least 30 there! lol Hopefully I come home and ALLLLLLLL the snow has melted! Wishful thinking I know - I need to see grass! my daffodils and tulips should be coming up soon! I so need spring and flowers to beat these winter doldrums. I've been putting my blinds up as high as they go to let in the sunlight lately.
Anyway, I digress... I am at wor****il 4 then off to the OB for my monthly appt and to the bank. Then home to have dinner and put my feet up.
Have a great day all and sleep well Pam!

Morning Pam and PA..
sorry you had such a crazy night, Pam.. I feel you on the pain. My legs are so sore today from that treadmill workout last night. The inclines is what did it, I'm sure.
Working today 5:30-3:30ish
Siehara has an appointment tonight with her therapist. I think it will probably be a family session since we didn't go last week with the ice storm.
I need to go to Walmart and will probably do that at lunch time. I broke my blender last night when I was making my protein shake. I took off the little lid inside the big lid to put some syrup in and when I put it back on, it slipped inside and shredded--not to mention covering me and my kitchen in yummy protein shake goodness. UGH. Then, I tried to use my little bullet blender thing and that wasn't working right... the cup or blade isn't sitting right inside the base. SO, I am going to buy a new blender. I think I'll pass on the bullet because I didn't use it often anyway. I'll just get ready made protein shakes for when I travel.
I am also thinking of buying an ice cream maker. Any good suggestions on one that is relatively inexpensive and still works well?
That's it for me... busy work day, followed by venting my frustrations at Siehara's appointment. Should be a fun day!

Cuisinart. It's the one that Eggface uses too - LOVE mine. If you go to bed bath and beyond and have one of there 20% off coupons it is pretty reasonable. You are welcome to take a look at mine on the 20th if you want to before you buy. Go to the BBB website and sign up for the mailing list and they'll send you 20% off coupons at least once a month.

Morning everyone...
Back to work today after a 3-day weekend. I am very happy to leave my house that is completely overcome with germs. Pink eye, strep throat, ear infection...you name, we got it. So I am starting my 8-day stretch here at work, 4 days and 4 middles. I work till 5pm today and then nothing planned right now. Perhaps, just maybe, I will go to the gym tonight after the kids go to bed. No promises, but you girls are kind of inspiring me. Time will tell.
Lisa, we have a Hamilton Beach ice cream maker (I think) and it works pretty good. I don't think it's all that expensive otherwise we would not have bought it. Also, I cannot speak highly enough of the Magic Bullet blender thing. I really, really am a fan. It was kind of pricey, but so worth. I've been having a protein shake every day since I bought it. Between that and the recipes from Eggface's site, I can now actually drink them, which I never could before.
Hope everyone has an enjoyable day, I heard something about snow for Wednesday....

Good morning Pam and everyone in PA. Sitting here in my classroom contemplating working ALL week. OY VEY! JK!
I am at wor****il 3:15, home to get dinner packed, off to pick up Molly, then to teach Hebrew School, then a twenty minute break then to teach the 7th graders. Larry is home AGAIN tonight. He has had professional develpment classes yesterday and today, tonight will make it 5 nights in a row we slept in the same bed at the SAME time. And only one bad day....Pretty good for us! :)
Nothing else new and exciting! I am having issues this weekend with trying to find someone to schlepp my kids to all their activities so that I can go to Barix. I am NOT happy. It is NOT OK for others that I depend on to have a life...They should be there for me at my beck and call.....ugh! :) At the least I am hoping to make it to the second half of the meeting. We shall see.
I hope you all have a nice Tuesday!

Morning, all!
The construction continues... only a few relatively minor glitches yesterday (one mismeasured cabinet has to be reordered, but it's not a showstopper). They got the electrical roughed in and the drywall up. contractors are starting with the cabinet hanging (yay!). It's getting exciting! (and yes, I'm taking pics...)
working at home today, trying to juggle more things than I should, of course! But I need to be here so I can answer questions and make decisions as the little things crop up.
I've been managing the food ok - using protein shakes for breakfast because I can get to them and can't get to anything else.... yogurts for snacks, and deli rollups for lunch. Bought a nice salad last night for dinner from Cosi topped with steak and fresh mozzerella. BUT... I caved in and ate the whole grain flatbread (then felt guilty afterward). The carb monster attacked.
Tonight.... interval fight training class!!! Woo hoo!
