Good Sunday Morning Cali

good morning Janine and Cali!

I wish Sammi and I could go to the waterpark with you guys. What fun! Speaking of waterfun, I put a few pictures on my profile from the trip to Boise.

Yesterday's 5K was great. I wish I had worn my pedometer to double check the distance. It was beautiful. The course took us through the streets, down the boardwalk, across the sand dunes, down the hardpack sand and back up the street. quite a workout I must admit. Looking forward to the Walk from Obesity in Ventura next month. I think my mom and her friend will come too. My DH ended up working almost 12 hours yesterday so we skipped the afternoon BBQ.

Today is all the usual weekend chores plus Costco and the car wash. EWE. Sammi and I will start the day with our traditional Sunday Breakfast out. mmmmmm Oh, and my Mom is having us over for dinner tonight AND keeping Sammi for a sleep over.

Hope everyone enjoys their day.

Hi Sue,
I just had to tell you I love the new Aviator!  Sammi is so darn adorable! 
Have a great day!  Jeni

Thank you Jeni!

Good Morning Janine and Cali,

I am tired and the day is just starting.  We feel asleep early so I was up at 1, then again at 3 with Jordyn, and finally at 6:30.  Since she is still sleep I got the living room put back in order and ran the dish water.  If I get them washed before she wakes awesome.  We are basically going to chill today.  If her dad does take a sick day I don't know what he will want to do.

Have a great time romping with the doggies

Everyone enjoy the day

Good Morning Janine and Cali friends!
That sounds like fun Janine.  We took Tommy to go see the Dark knight yesterday and we drove by Sunsplash and I asked Tommy if he would go down one of those slides with Grandma next year!  lol
I love the water!!! and just always too embarrassed to go out in public.  i only go in the jacuzzi at home after dark just in case....
We had some friends over for dinner last night and then we bowled using the Wii.  My husband just cracks me up!   He is the bowling champ!!!  6 strikes in a row!  and he bowls just like he is really bowling like some professional.  Has the real serious look of concentration on his face and does the little bowling walk with the kick at the end!!!  But hey, it apparently works!!!  hehehehe
Today is laundry day since yesterday was the play day.  Ugh!!!
Oh well some one has to do it......and it won't be the hubby!  lol
You all have a great, great day ok? 
I can't wait to see the mural when it is finished Janine....I know it will be just awesome!
mucho love, Jeni

Good Morning Janine and You California guys and gals.  I had the wonderful opportunity to attend the IE support group!  What a wonderful bunch of people.  Steve and Darrel were so welcoming!  Luana made me laugh so hard I thought I was going to bust my pouch.  I kept calling the Melindas, Michelles and I think I confused everyone there.  Kat looks like a million bucks now she is doing so well.  The whole group made me feel a part of them.  They were awesome!  I loved how the group is so honest and straight forwad.  They focus on their goal and they go for it.  Thank you all for having me, and making me feel special and wanted.  I can't wait for the coffee on the 6th!  See you there.  Today, let's see.  I think we will be working on retiling our house.  We hit a snag as the old motar must be chipped off by hand and it is everywhere!  That is going to slow up down quite a bit.  So my husband is going to work on laying the tile in the "living room" while I start chipping away the motar in the dining room.  I guess I am not going to need to do my arm exerscizes today.  You all have a  wonderful and blessed Sunday  Be good to yourselfs and don't forget do at least one thing that makes you happy today!

Good Morning Janine and California!

I was pretty tired from walking the hills yesterday.  Sometimes I forget it's not been THAT long since surgery. lol  I took a 3 hour nap and read part of “The Complete Guide To Marathon Walking” by Dave McGovern.  There are many tips on how to racewalk.  I’m thinking about taking his training class in January.  If I’m going to continue my weight loss journey I need to be able to get my walking in without taking up most of the day. ;-)  I also ordered CDs and a book by Jeff Salvage “

I made a perfectly healthy dinner of baked fish and spinach and dumped after 3 small bites.  Could it be the I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter?  I fried scallops in real butter yesterday and had no trouble...Yes small amounts.  I made Fudgesicle Protein Frozen Yogurt as a replacement.

Have a great day, everyone!

Good Morning,

I woke up at 5am this morning, and sat up for a bit...I went to sleep at 10 last night. It was the first good night's sleep I've gotten since surgery. It felt good, but I tell you, when I woke up I was so dang stiff, the first thing I did was take a pain pill!

Anyway, no plans today, except for a few friends that are coming to visit, and bring me a meal. Just rest, walk a little, and keep my feet up cuz if I don't,  dang they like to swell!!

Ok, going back to the recliner with my cup of coffee!!!

Have a great day.....I know I will.

Good Morning Janine and the Cali Crew

Janine, I can't wait to see your work in progress.  Look forward to seeing pictures posting.  Have a blast

Jean, enjoy the wedding and have a great time in Vegas.  See you on the 30th.

I am blowing off church this morning and heading to the laundrymat instead then to the grocery store.  I just want to get my chores done early so I can do what I want for the rest of the day. Which will probably be nothing. Although, I will go on another walk.

Anyone out there have or had a problem with plantar fasciitis?  if so, did it improve after WLS and if so, how far into your weight loss did you notice improvement.  I would be able to do so much more if it weren't for this dang foot problem!

I hope everyone has a great Sunday. 

The weekends always go by WAY too fast.

Linda

I hear it does get better as you lose weight, but mine hasn't yet.  I find the shoes I wear make a big difference.  I have to have a bit of a heel (at least one inch) and good arch support. 

Today is my laundry day, too.
