ALL ABOARD !!!!

I thought I'd crank up the train, in case anyone wants to climb aboard (like ME)..wants to share (like ME)..needs some support (like ME)..hasn't had the opportunity to ride every day (like ME)..

Are you getting the feeling I started the train for ME ME ME ???

Happy Weekend, my TMB Family !! I wasn't able to board the train much this week...tricky, when having to be at work, ready to hop/skip/jump/crawl/dance/sing @ 06:00, but I NEED y'all, and I hope you need me, so the least I can do is catch up, when I'm not having to shoot out the door, with my hair on fire (yep-that red IS fire-not Lady Clairol..had you fooled !)...

Been a crazy, busy week, but food/drink wise I still managed to do pretty darn well, am proud of that. I'm still not quite where I NEED to be on plain water, but I keep my glass nearby, at all times, and am making a concerted effor****er was never an issue, in past years, so I'm not sure why I have such a brain fart NOW, but, like I said, I'm working on it. One of my migraine prevention meds calls for EXTRA water, so I REALLY need to pu****You'd think that would push me..yea, you'd THINK..lol..damn nurses make terrible patients, ya know...

Exercise wise...I still stink..big time...I do loads of gymnastics/calistenics/turn myself into a pretzel (ever bottle fed a 3 month old premie baby, WHILE pulling a 9 month old big-headed baby out from under a crib, where he crawled backwards and got stuck, against the wall ?), but ZIP cardio...Yesterday I grabbed a SIZE SMALLER jeans from the back of my closet, and had to stuff the leg skin in--had I been walking like I should be, I woud have the muscle definition to hold some of that skin in check, and would not have had to squa**** so much..HAPPY for the size smaller, of course, but ANGRY at myself for not walking, etc..I promised myself to go walk, when I got off at 3:30..BUT THEN SOMEBODY CALLED IN...I worked until 5:30..you guessed it..NO EXERCISEl...

Okay..that pretty well sums up my week. I have read the train, for the week. I am praying for SUSIE today, as she makes the long trip home.

What's up with you for the weekend ????

Good Evening Gina and Karla,

Susie made it home earlier today and had no issues....thank you whoever said prayers for her.    I'm sorry I couldn't post on OH.   Most of the time my phone acts up and I was in Glen Rose at my son's in Law's 30th wedding anniversary party.   It was LOTS of fun.    Glad to be home since I had SOME issues and lots of gas.    UGH Hate when that happends......I drove home with my pants unzipped....glad you got into a smaller size Gina.     Praying that happens for me really soon.   LOL

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CAN NOT CHANGE;   COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS THAT I CAN;  AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE !!!!    THIS IS MY DAILY PRAYER.

Happy Sunday! I'm fighting a stupid headache, so stayed home this morning-but DO believe I'm winning the war on the pain, this go round!!

Last night I went to dinner with a long time GF, who has been having some trouble in her marriage. Silly woman wanted MY advice..Lord help her...She and I have spent countless hours together, over the yrs..Her son and my Chris go all the way back to their potty training days at Punkin Patch..I normally "isolate"on Saturday nights, and it took getting out of my comfort zone to get dressed/drive to the restaurant/etc..but I was determined to JUST DO IT..and I did..I was home by 7:30..but..hey..it was a good start !!!

Later today I'll pick up TRACEY and go to a WLS support get together "up north"...very much looking forward to it...support is something tha has been lacking in my "program"-NOBODY's fault but my own..so glad LORALEA felt the tug, on her heart, to organize these get togethers...

Hope YOUR day is going well, and you are getting to something FOR YOU !!

Good morning, Gina. It is nice to have time to post! Yesterday my exercise was CPR training and then an hour and a half of push mowing and weed eating. It must have worked because the scale was nice this morning. I already did the elliptical as soon as I got up today. I need to run to the bank, then do my nails. Ben and I are going to a wedding late afternoon/ tonight. I am looking forward to it. I bought a new outfit yesterday to wear, including shoes. We are meeting my sister and BIL at the wedding and riding with them to the reception/ dinner.

Have a good day!

For Sunday, I am up and exercised already, even though I didn't want to. I will head to SS and church later, then lunch with the family. A load of laundry this afternoon and lots of rest!

Susie, hope you re home and doing well today recuperating.
