What Have You Done Today to Make You Feel Proud?

OMG...my muscles are so heavy I don't know if I can hold my arms up to type this!  Today was the first day that we had eighty degree weather, so genius here decides to go and trim the privet hedge.  But the trimmer wouldn't start so I did it all with clippers.  Yanno, I think I'm in pretty damned good shape, but today reminded me that working out ain't REAL WORK!  Yes, it gives me great stamina, but I used muscles today I haven't used in a long time!  OY  I'm going to go soak myself in Motrin!

Biggest Loser comes on tomorrow night.  I miss seeing my favorite *****Jillian!

Mary

I know!! I can't WAIT to see Biggest Loser.  I'm dying for it.  It's so motivating.

Hope your arms feel better, Mar 

Yay....now I have someone to discuss BL with!  I love that show.  I've learned soooo much from watching it.  And I visualize Jillian yelling in my ear when I'm working out to get me moving!  I would love to have her for a trainer, but if I think my arms hurt now, they'd probably be falling OFF if she ever got a hold of me!

Two hours baby...TWO whole HOURS!

Mary

Sorry to hear this, mary...  I hope you feel better soon!

Thank you Lori...my Popeye arms will be just fine once the spinach wears off!  I feel like crap, but the yard looks great!  But I think I'll wait until it gets cooler to bleach the outside to within an inch of it's life!  

Mary

hahha.. you sound like me!  I do everything to within an inch of it's life... clean the house, shave my legs.. etc.. LOL

I use that expression all the time.  I tell Robert, I want this house cleaned to within an inch of it's life.  Especially if my oldest sister is coming! 

I've also heard you use it before, which is why I used it, now.  We have WAY too mu*****ommon!  

But how does one shave their legs to within an inch of their lives?  With a chainsaw?  

Mary

Well, you're too cool to be one of my sisters..... lol  but definitely kindred on many levels!

A chainsaw could work, but usually I tell Jon that it's getting to the point that I need a weed whacker! 

Actually.. it goes like this:

Jon:  Lori.. how long are you going to be in the bathroom

Lori:  I dunno, I have to shave everything to within an inch of it's life before I do anything! 


LOL

Hey, cool sister!! Don't ever think someone's too cool for you!!

I shave everything.....EVERYTHING within an inch of it's life but since I can't shower, I haven't been able to shave and I'm NOT happy about it.  EEEWWW!!!!  I'm gonna boil a giant pot of water and let it cool and then try to shave tonight or tomorrow (probably by candlelight).  BTW, whoever said candlelight was romantic was full o' crap!!  And whoever said camping was fun was even MORE full o'crap (or is it fuller o' crap?)!!

I use an awful lot of candles and oil lamps around here so it probably wouldn't feel much different. 

Shaving would be a problem though.  I use curel on my legs and it's hard to get lotion out of a razor... so I have to keep very ho****er running as I put one leg at a time up onto the sink.  It's hysterical.  I feel like I'm going gymnastics in there, but it gets the job done.

Just be careful...... if we have to, we can get a gas powered weed whacker for ya!  :)
