Woo Hoo Wednesday/TGIF WLS express

Is roling down the tracks early today   
ready for Thankgviving? got your thankful list all made up - grab a cup and settle in the car of your choce and share your thankfuls and woo hoos

No clue why I am up right now but I am so GOOD MORNING!!!!

my Woo Hoo is that I got an email from my fav cousin -we were super close growing up but I have not seen her since the teen was failry young - looks like we are driving to Alanta on Sat and I'm not worried about how I look!!!! She has always been the tiny cute one - I was always the cow - and I am sure I am still twice her size - she is 5 foot 1 and was under 100 pounds as a healthy college kid - but at least I am not 4 times her size for goodness sake, 

baking and tidying up the hosue, school work and playing with my kiddos is on the list for today - I need light bulbs but am serousely debating paying twice the price for them and getting them at the shoppette to avoid wally world today

worrying and praying for Gina and her Richard.

make a plan so you can have a good day - it doesn't have to be set in stone but it helps to have SOME idea of what you are going to eat when and where each day- if you are traveling - grab an extra water bottle or 3 and some cheese sticks and jerky - AVOID fast food - enjoy those calories tomorrow on REAL food that tastes good instead of junk today -

Chanlange for everyone - how healthy can you eat today and Friday? it's not Thanksgiving dinner and Cmas dinner that pack on the holiday pounds - its the before and after days - partys, left overs, the feelings of oh well I already over ate yesterday so I'll lose it in Jan - NO WRONG ANSWER!!! Enjoy the holidays but keep the eating in check - do whatever will help you avoid the mindless munching -
think I will do a seperate post on this LOL

love you guys
Danni
who is very thankful for her family - blood and by love

Sorry, better late than never to the train!!!

Challenge, huh?  Well, today I'm on track and will be cooking and cleaning like a banshee later this afternoon once I get home from work.

Tomorrow - have a great plan and we picked low fat, low cal food for Thanksgiving.  I have a family member with heart problems, so everything had to be heart friendly which, irronicially enough is also WLS friendly, go figure!!!

Friday - awww the shopping... I'll get my workout starting at 4 a.m. while I fight for good deals.  Breakfast will be Starbucks coffee and the rest of the day looking good with leftover turkey and salad fixin's...

So, I'll let you know what the scale shows on Monday ~ Happy Turkey Day all!

For those traveling, be safe and blessings going out to all!

Mornig Danni and the rest of my TMB Family,

I actually slept an hour later then normal this morning.  Got up at 4 instead of 5.  I am so loving have my Mom ad Dad here.  We went and had  nice dinner last night at a BBQ place.   I shared a plate of pulled pork  with my Mark.  It was good but nothing like the stuff served at Stephanies BBQ.  Not sure what we will do today.  I do need to make my apple pie and cheese cake.  Made 2 SF pumpkin yesterday and one regular.  Mom is doing the stuffing.  No one makes it like she does.  I am going to really watch what I eat today, so that I can enjoy tomorrow.  The b**ch in the box as Danni likes to put it was not very good to me this morning.  I guess thats what happens when you have company.  You can be proud of me Danni, I m staying totally away from the Chex Mix and when I want some I think of what you said!  My WooHooo for today, is my tim and my grandson will be here tomorrow.  I cant wait.  I am thankful for my health, no problems at all since we got to Dover.  Well except for a cist in my right wrist and it hurts if I dont wear the brace.  I am thakful for my wonderfull family both chosen and unchosen.   Prayers this morning for those in need especially Jenny and Rick, Dana as she continues to Heal, and Viv as she deals with family and health.   Danni, thanks for being you and for all your words of wisdom.  Have a blessed day.  I love you guys.

Michelle you are a sweetie - I have found the best thing for when I NEED chips/crunch - in the commissary in the orental section are something called shrimp chips, they are much lower in fat adn calories and carbs than most things and even has some protien - ok so not today LOL but Friday go and get some - I seperate the bag into 8 snack size baggies - 65 cals each, 1 protine, 2.5 fat and 10 carbs - not wonderful but beats the heck out of chips, ritz, chex mix and most other random munchie things with crunch

enjoy your familiy being there - that is soooo wonderful you are close now to them

hugs
danni

GOOD MORNING! I'm so happy that I finally slept well last night and my headache is gone finally. I thought it was gone after dinner but it came back so we stopped to get Excedrin Migraine and it did the trick. We had a great meal at La Hacienda last night but its a bit pricey. Bryan and I split fajitas. I needed to get some soap that I really like at a store in Southlake Town Center but when we got there at 7:10pm we found out most shops close at 7. I was shocked. Will have to run over there sometime today or this weekend.

Prayers continue for Richard and Eric. Thanks to the folks giving updates- I so appreciate that.

I hope everyone has a great day today!

Good Morning Train!

WOOOOOHOOOO for Wednesdays!  I'm working from home today in my tweetie bird jammies on my couch catching up on my DVR'd shows and getting a head start on my Holiday cooking....

Prayers are going out for all that need them!

In keeping with Danni's go easy on the eating over the holidays, here's the Eagles' Take it Easy...... 

Well, I'm running down the road
tryin' to loosen my load
I've got seven women on
my mind,
Four that wanna own me,
Two that wanna stone me,
One says she's a friend of mine
Take It easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels
drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can
don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand
and take it easy
Well, I'm a standing on a corner
in Winslow, Arizona
and such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed
Ford slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is
gonna save me
We may lose and we may win though
we will never be here again
so open up, I'm climbin' in,
so take it easy
Well I'm running down the road trying to loosen
my load, got a world of trouble on my mind
lookin' for a lover who won't blow my
cover, she's so hard to find
Take it easy, take it easy
don't let the sound of your own
wheels make you crazy
come on baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is
gonna save me, oh oh oh
Oh we got it easy
We oughta take it easy

Ya'll have a great day my friends!

Love Love LOVE that song and the Eagles!!  Thanks Karen!!

Well, just sitting here wondering if I have time to get onto FAcebook and serve my cafe food!!  LOL!  Not much going on at work.  I put in to get Friday off.  I don't think they'll deny my leave, I would just like to know one way or the other.

The job in Barksdale AFB went to someone else.  Got the email last night.  I didn't even get an interview.  Means they had someone in mind when they posted it.  Dang, I would have at least liked an interview!!

Well, better get into the shower and get to work!  Ya'll have a great day!  Love ya!

The right job is out there for you, I just know it and its just waiting for the right time to reveal itself. Hang in there!
