What Have You Done Today to Make You Feel Proud?

Yanno Monkey, I think there are some days when our bodies just require more calories than other days, so I say just go with the flow.  To me it's kind of like when you need rest days from working out, you're body will definitely let you know it's requirements.

 And stay off of that damned scale!!!I don't know why you are so obsessed with that little hunk of metal.  All it ever does is break your heart and you just keep going back to it.  If it were a man you would have divorced it by now!

OH..speaking of "man".. I do have a proud.

I met one who has been occupying a lot of my time lately - and I'm proud I'm NOT TRIPPIN' over the inevitable (yanno... what's under the clothes thing).  To be honest.. I really don't care.  So THERE!  Nyyyyya Nyyyya

Hold up.  What the hell?  You just gingerly glide on up in here and make a casual announcement that you met a man and then want to just prance on outta here like it's an everyday 'no big deal' occurrence?  Well that ain't happenin'!!!

Start spilling your guts, Sister.  And when you say you aren't tripping about what's under the clothes...do you mean yours or HIS???  Enquiring minds want to know!

Mary

HAhahhahah   I'm not trippin' about the inevitable.. so far avoidable.. um.. disrobing.. MINE.  I don't have a doubt about what's under his.. he wears it well and he's HAWTTTTTTTTT.. mama mia!  WHEW!    But I'm being VERY cool... just hope I don't make him think I'm made of ice.. lol  (I'm outta practice).  I'm .. pretty well taken with him.. and he's taken with me so.. ya never know.  I just like the pleasure of his company for now.. how's that?  (NO BOOTY YET)>  It's weird cause it's on my mind with men I DON'T like.. this one.. ut uh.. not going there.

Ok.. he's in his 50's...  dayem good lookin'.. fit...  and I've been enjoying being serenaded to BLUES!  He's a guitarist and singer.. very talented.. his voice..  *****swoon****   Can we say "just my type".  He does a lot of Allman bros.. molly hatchet.. and of the like..  plus laying down tracks on his own stuff.  I can't keep up with him... but I can play the rhythm to his lead so we're making a play date at his studio.  Yes.. his pickin' has me intimidated which is probably why I'm not worrying too much about the other stuff.  I really hate to say "yea..you're 55.. and I'm 45.. but my fingers don't work as well as yours because of arthritis".  I'll do the rhythm... as far as I'll go and pray he don't need no 12 bar cause that's gonna HURT!

I got invited for a weekend blues fest that I had to turn down.  I wasn't ready.. yanno..  to .. GO away.. overnight.. yanno. 

YES.. he has a day job!   No he doesn't do drugs (anymore) LOL  Yes he drinks "socially". it's not a habit...  so far.. so good.  No?

Ps.. I do have a couple of samples of some stuff he threw together JUST FOR ME!  It's rough.. but ya can definitely hear him.. LOL

My my my...what a difference a few days makes in the life of our li'l Monkey!  A few weeks ago we were stressing with you over clothes not fitting and now you've gone and met 'Mr. Wonderful'.    Ain't life grand???  Girl, I can't even begin to say how happy I am for you!  You're finally getting out and living your life...how exciting is THAT?

  Mary

Well.. don't be too thrilled..  tonight I saw the "emotional instability"...............  something I cannot overlook.  One nut in a couple is just one nut too many anyway..

LOL.. was fun while it lasted.... glad I took it slow!

  That's just a shame...he had a job and everything!  Your right to ditch him though, emotional instability can ruin a lot of good times.   But don't worry about me, I'll get over it...eventually, with time.  *sigh*

Not proud. Ate too much last night, but I haven't figured up the calories yet. But......get this......I'm 51 years old and I have to get BRACES next week! Well, braces on half of the upper and a retainer! I have to have them on for 4 months. Do you think they will help prevent overeating??????

Braces. I wish I'd done that years ago. I was told that I need them as well. I'm going to be 51 in November. We aren't at a good place in our lives to even consider that right now, though. As to them preventing overeating - you know, I'll bet they do make eating uncomfortable at least at first. Maybe that would be a good "change of routine" to get you into another, healthier, one.

I refuse to count calories! :-)

My challenge for the winter is that my crock pot broke. I am going to have to spring (no pun intended) for a new one so I can have a turkey breast going during the day and make soup and things while we're at the appliance store.

I do often joke about making dinner right there in the store (heck, we've got enough stoves around) to entice customers.

Still trusting that the store will sell.

*sigh*


HOWEVER, as Mary knows, I'd lose one reason to be proud if I stopped moving refrigerators.

Hah, you stop bench pressing appliances and I'll DEFINITELY win the best hiney contest!
