Tuesday WLS Express

Good morning! Time to get moving and headed on down the road!!

Well, how about them Rangers? 8-0 is pretty good! I didn'****ch the game because baseball on tv is pretty boring to me. I like to watch it in person. I was checking the Jacksonville/TN game instead because I'm in a football pool this year with my BIL's group/friends and I've really gotten into it now. I'm ahead of my BIL and he's the one that totally is into football and stats and all of that, which cracks me up.

Who is going to early vote? I'm going to try to find a place when I'm out and about either today or tomorrow. I'm so tired of the politcal commercials- election day can't come soon enough!

Hope everyone has a great day today!

Good morning! You are up early!

I'm really trying to be good about my protein. I know the Carb Monster has really had a hold on me lately. It is such a challenge to cook for one person, and my pouch does not do well with most leftovers.

My poor Woogie had a tummy ache all day yesterday and finally threw up last night so I don't know if he can go to school today. Unfortunately, it's picture day today. I would like to stay home with him but my boss is out of the country and there's no one to fill in for me.

Oh well, we'll see what today brings!

Good Morning Train!

WOOHOOO for Tuesday!  That's the endorphins talking after an hour on the bike, but I'll take it, LOL  I saw part of the Rangers game when I opened one eye while rolling over last night, lol, but I was thrilled to hear they'd won! 

Prayers are going up for all that need them!

Rascal Flatts' Life is a Highway is stuck in my head this morning, so here it is! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvsmRuRp4cM&feature=related

Whooo umm yeah...
Life's like a road that you travel on
When there's one day here and the next day gone
Sometimes you bend, sometimes you stand
Sometimes you turn your back to the wind
There's a world outside ev'ry darkened door
Where blues won't haunt you anymore
Where brave are free and lovers soar
Come ride with me to the distant shore
We won't hesitate
To break down the garden gate
There's not much time left today

Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long

Through all these cities and all these towns
It's in my blood and it's all around
I love you now like I loved you then
This is the road and these are the hands
From Mozambique to those Memphis nights
The Khyber Pass to Vancouver's lights

Knock me down get back up again
You're in my blood
I'm not a lonely man
There's no load I can't hold
Road so rough this I know
I'll be there when the light comes in
Just tell 'em we're survivors

Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long

Gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah

Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long

There was a distance between you and I A misunderstanding once
But now we look it in the eye

Ooooo...Yeah!

There ain't no load that I can't hold
Road so rough this I know
I'll be there when the light comes in
Just tell 'em we're survivors

Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long
Life is a highway
I wanna ride it all night long
If you're going my way
I wanna drive it all night long

Gimme gimme gimme gimme yeah

Ya'll have a great day my friends!

I'm up early today.  I've been awake, and trying to go back to sleep, for about an hour and a half.  I finally gave up and just got up.

Nothing much is on tap for today.  I have work, and we're meeting with a florist this afternoon to get an idea on wedding flowers.

I need to go to the store and spend some time doing meal planning.  I have dinners planned, but I'm a bit clueless about my lunches for the rest of the week.

Prayers to all who need them!

MEL-I bet you can get alot of lunch ideas form PAIGE's daily "accountability" thread -lots of good stuff-some weird people even COOK!!

Since I don't take a lunch hour at work, especially this time of year (I am in retail), I do cut up fruit, celery w/ peanut butter or pimento cheese, sandwich on Orowheat sandwich thins,carrot sticks and other raw veggies, and protein or fiber bars. I also drink a ready made protein drink everyday as a late day pick-me-up!

Good morning all!! I'm not a baseball person, but it's nice to see my friends happy...even when MY local sports team ain't doin' so hot..but I remain loyal..have never been a "fair weather fan..my boy Troy needs to get out from behind that dang microphone and suit up!!! And Emmitt needs to give up dancing and just catch a ball and RUN again....sigh...

Busy day yesterday, as expected-worked 11 hours, then Corbin wouldn't let me slack off our "walking date"-we logged 5 miles of power walking. I tried a lil running but my back yelled out a resounding 'NO". I can walk as fast as I can run anyway, so it's all good. Corbin asked me if he could go to the OH conf. He had been loooking at the website and looked at the exercise taks, etc-esp Dan B, probably. I asked my roomie, and she's ok with it, so I signed him up last night. He has ALWAYS been my greatest support system-and he was only 13 when I had WLS.

Hope everyone has a TERRIFIC Tuesday, and does at least ONE positive thing toward your personal goals..plan a meal...put your vitamins in an organizer..get a pretty new water bottle or work out top...just ONE thing

Gina AKA Nurse Diva (who wore a "new" work out top last night, that's been in the back of my closet, for probably 5 years, with the tags still on it)

WAY TO GO Gina- you're doing so awesome with your walking!!

TY, ALISSA-I want to be RUNNING, but my body has other ideas, I'm afraid
