Good Thursday Morning Cali
Janine, there are times I wish I had a bike to ride.....but I'm so short, I'd never be able to hold it up when I had to stop...I'd need training wheels!!
Don't work til 5pm tonight, so I have the whole day to myself. Plan on just hanging out there at the house for a bit, then to the gym, then lunch with my niece.
Forgot to post yesterday.....weight still the same...no gain, no loss. Can't complain!
Have a great day!

Good Morning All! I hope everyone has a great day! Last night I spent some time with my daughter's friend (kinda like another daughter to me) and helped her. She was down in the dumps. She comes from a highly disfunctional family and she spent quite a bit of time at my house over the years. By the end of the evening she was laughing and feeling a lot better.
Today I have a busy busy day. Wor****il 11:30, then to the hospital for pre-op at 12:10. After that I meet up with my parents for a bit. AT 4:20 I have the annual boob squash, and at 5:30 support group. Busy busy busy.
I even got to see my sweetheart for a bit this morning! Yeah!
Well I am just loving being on vacation! Wow!! Shopping in the middle of the work week is so much fun! I went shopping yesterday and had a really weird moment. I was in Nordstroms and I wanted to buy something pretty for myself, so I was looking for a shirt in the "normal" section, and I felt lost. I wanted so desperately to go back to the "big" girl section. I had to keep telling ,myself."no", you can shop in the normal section. But it was such a weird feeling. I love to shop but it was just so weird. I guess this is just one of those fabulous "wow" moments.
I think I will just stay around my house today and just enjoy the day. Hope everyone has a great day.

Janine, thanks for the shout, I need to be poked at til I get off my butt! I did get my one mile walk in this morning, and I will wallk another mile tonight on my way home, but I do that almost everyday to and from work so I know I need to make an effort to throw a little something more in there too! I have a mall across the street from my office so I am trying to get over there once or twice a week to do some extra walking on my lunch break, and I dug out my yoga mat and my resistance bands last night, the plan is yoga three days a week and strength training three days a week...hopefully that will get me back into the right mindset!
My thoughts are with everyone having surgery, meeting with doctors, going through tough times, and those who just plain need em today!

Good Morning Cali-
Janine- thank you for sharing that beautiful letter. It is always nice to know that what you have done was not in vain. Sorry to hear about your hog acting strange. Congrats on getting a compliment (jeans); you deserve it. Thank you for the shout out.
I went to a mixer at El Cholo in Pasadena last night (mainly for information). The run will be rescheduled for March of 2009. Right now, the city has to focus on the Rose Bowl Parade. They were passing out medals and posters. I had a margarita and talked to some people. Afterwards I had seafood enchiladas and black beans.
Knitting is going well. I finished one sweater (black) and is about 3/4 done with another (royal blue). I have one more sweater that I have to do. When I get the zipper installed on the blue one and buttons for the other other two, I will take post pictures.
That I all I have to report.
More Love,
Kim
Everything went well with my brother's angioplasty.. artery has been cleared. He had to stay overnight for observation, and we all know how well they let one sleep in the hospital!
My brother's gonna have to alter his lifestyle a bit with the food, but I know he can do it.
It's a little slow-go at work today. Waiting on the stories to come in. Gonna tidy up a bit around here today. Still waiting to hear about lay-offs and if I'm not one or not. I'll need to move upstairs if I'm still on-board, so I've got some cleaning to do.
Working out after work today and just the usual stuff pretty much.
Take care,
Kim

I am typing one-handed because I fell the other night and have sprained my right shoulder. Just got back from the doctor and she put me in a sling. Also having major back issues from the fall. I was actually feeling good up until my fall. Anyway, I still read- just not that easy to type one-handed.
I have also been spending hours online looking at houses in our area. We think it may be time to get into one, we just need to make that first leap into finding out what we can qualify for....

Today is also our little man's 5th birthday! Wow, time flies.
Thanks for the shout out, Janine! Take care of your skinny self....

What a beautiful letter! I am so glad that Laura's family realizes what an amazing woman you are and how big your heart is.
Life is good! Can't complain and it wouldn't do me any good if I did. LOL! I am running late as usual. HAHA!
Hope everyone has a great day and YIPPIEEEEEEEEEEEE for Friday. Plus I am only working two days next week!
