~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1.) What household chore do you hate the most?   My dishwasher is currently broke, so Im going to say washing the dishes, by hand  lol.   Cleaning the bathroom is also on the top of my dislike list.

2.) Name something that made you smile this past week?   My daughters theme is jungle safari animals. Yesterday I got a sneak peak at the fondant animals being made for her shower cake. Adorable!!!!  Definitely made me smile!

3.) Struggles/Victories this week?  Struggles - it was kind of a stressful week and I found myself snacking when not hungry.  Victories -  I did pretty good with my fluids and I need a smaller size jeans even though Im not actively trying to loose anymore weight.

4.) Plans for the weekend?  Alot of cooking.  Friday evening, decorating.  Sat - baby shower.  Sunday -  hopefully relaxing.

1.)    What household chore do you hate the most?

I hate all household chores.  Let me go muck the barn anyday over cleaning house.

2.)   Name something that made you smile this past week?

My ponies always make me smile.  I've gotten to work them twice this week.  The donkeys are also shedding and they were accosting me to brush them.  They are such sweeties.

3.)  Struggles/Victories this week?

Struggles, the heat, meetings and trying to fit my food and fluids in around them.  The printer dying right when I had to run payroll checks.
Victories, getting and staying under 130.  When I finally did, I dropped to 128 and have stayed there.

4.)  Plans for the weekend?

Going with a friend to pick up a horse at the trainer's.  Includes a visit to my sister who hasn't seem me since surgery. She came to help out when I got home and we are very close.  I'l also taking Chili so I can get a lesson from the trainer so it will be a good trip all round.

1.)  household chore......i hate them all....rather be outside!!

2.) something that made me smile.....hubby got home after a week on the road!!

Ooo - have fun with the baby shower!!! How time flies.

1.) What household chore do you hate the most?  1.  bathrooms, 2.  floors, 3. kitchen - think I got most of them..

2.) Name something that made you smile this past week?  My grandbaby - she is just all smiles and snuggles and is so active and alert now - its so much fun just to watch her explore - imagining what's going through her little head

3.) Struggles/Victories this week?  exercise.  Perhaps that's my goal today is to get over to curves and see how much that will cost me. 

4.) Plans for the weekend? We have an grad open house to go to then he asked me if I wanted to go to the UP this weekend (Sun/Mon).  He's trying to rearrange his work schedule but it will also be a work related trip for him.

1.) What household chore do you hate the most?  Folding and taking care of laundry.

2.) Name something that made you smile this past week? My son and daughter come up to me and say "momma, guess what?"  I say what in a whisper.  Kaleb: "I am a secret ageant and I am going to spy on people."  Kiersten: "and I am super girl and I am going to save them" 

3.) Struggles/ Victories this week?  Struggles-  Not drinking the mountain Dew my husband keeps bringing home.  Victories-  Eatting healthier.  I think it is something about summer.

4.)  Plans for the weekend?  Relay for Life walk with my husband and friends.  My husband and I are going to see how long we can walk straight!

chores--what's to like?  I guess the worst is getting rid of the mold in my walk in shower. Yuck

smile-the just posted NSV about being called a skinny ***** Way funny

struggles-my MIL fell and broke her wrist.  I spent two nights sleeping on her couch so I could help out.  She really shouldn't be living alone at 89 but we can't convince her otherwise so we''re always worried.  I got in very little exercise because of the change of routine and have to admit I missed it  (Did I just say I missed exercise?-talk about an NSV!)

plans-hopefully some peaceful private time with hubby-maybe an early morning walk on the beach

Janet

Chores - I hate sorting and putting away paperwork that accumulates.

Smiles - talking to friends. Walking outdoors.  Thinking about pilates tonight makes me smile!

Struggles/Victories - packing in a carryon size bag for a 2 week trip.  All those vitamins and protein bars take up a lot of space!  Victories - getting new sneakers for walking 10 miles a day. Only 2 more weigh-ins to hit my Weigh****chers Lifetime goal.

Plans - see above.  Leaving Saturday for 2 weeks in Spain with Zach.  So looking forward to our yearly family vacation together. 

1.)    What household chore do you hate the most? LAUNDRY....more specifically folding and putting it away, just so darned time consuming..

2.)   Name something that made you smile this past week? My husband, he says I got hit on by a girl LOL.. I wouldnt know, she couldnt believe that I had, had WLS and have lost so much and look NOTHING like my military photo...A few minutes ago another woman  couldnt believe that I had surgery and she was like, but you are so firm wheres the excess,,I HIDE IT WELL LOL

3.)  Struggles/Victories this week? My biggest struggle a MAJOR stalll. I cant get past the dreaded 130-131. I thought I had but it was my scale being messed up. Have to increase my intake or something but I have no clue.  Victory, I was outside all morning (this morning just got home) and did not have to use my inhaler once!
