Friday Roll Call

Good morning Shawn and Illinois!

Another cold one out there but tomorrow the wind chills will be worse. So today I am making a quick trip to the store for the few things I must have. I don't want to  go out tomorrow if I don't have to.

Went to the gym last night but did not run. I was just too sore. I'll try again next time.

Hope you all have a great day! Keep warm and keep safe!

Good morning all! Happy Anniversary to my neighbor! Hope you have fun today, stay safe on the roads, the winds are supposed to pick up later on.

Yesterday I went out, I had to pay some bills.  Took it slow and it was fine.  Kids had school today (yipee!!) so I was up early and drove them to the bus stop.  Can't wait for it to warm up so we can just walk down there instead.

So glad it is finally Friday, don't know why I say finally though this week seemed to fly past me.  Today I am waiting for my Mom to arrive and we will go grocery shopping, then I have to work (I'm the lunch supervisor at the boys school) then my oldest has his guitar lesson. 

This weekend my middle son has his birthday party at his martial arts studio on Saturday, that will be fun.  A group of Kindergartners learning to break boards! Watch out!  Then on Sunday we are going to my parents house so my oldest can have access to Grandpa's workshop to work on his pinewood derby car for Cub Scouts.  They live near actual stores (we only have a walmart here) so I think while they are doing their manly things I might go do some retail therapy.  But I'm not buying clothes for me!! I've decided that until after I have my surgery I don't want to buy myself anymore clothes.  I'm working on the premise that it would be a waste of money since once I have surgery the clothes will be too big on me.  That's my plan and I'm stickin' to it!

Everyone have a great day!

Good morning Shawn and the rest of Illinois!

I am staying home today to wait for the cable guy.  We are getting digital cable on the main TV downstairs. 

Not too much else going on here for me.  The kids are still sleeping since they are off today for "teacher's Institute".  I plan on maybe taking a warm bath and reading.

Everyone have a lovely day and stay warm!!!!

Good morning IL and Shawn!

Another lovely day in Illinois!  Working today.  Our church choir is participating in a choir fest tonight to benefit our local food pantry, so will do that this evening.

I have a part time job cleaning our church, so will prbly do that tomorrow AM, then home to get ALL the Christmas Decorations put away and the tree down...and house back to "normal".  THEN I'm working on getting my new Wii Fit Plus set up.

Not much else happening here.  Just trying to stay warm.

Enjoy your Friday and weekend.

I hope you have an easier time than I did setting up the Wii fit.  It was pretty straight forward BUT I had a terrible time getting it to work with my satellite system and VCR.  After several calls to the satellite company, a trip to the store to buy different cables, I am finally using it.  For a while it looked doubtful.  I kept shutting off my satellite reception and still not getting the Wii to work.  GRRR.  

Hi Illinois....

Still doing OK. Trying to figure out an eating plan though and its going OK, also trying to figure out how to get these horrible vitamins down. tried putting them in something and they tasted awful! YUCK!

Want to head to the store today to pick up a few things so I dont have to go this weekend.

 

 

Hi to all!
I have been around reading just not posting! I know this is where all my support is at but I got down in the dumps when I had the problems, with the Hernia.

I should have stayed and talked to people that are just like me but like I always do I try to fix things myself. I think that comes from the way I was raised. I think I have it all together now.
 
We will see, I joined a group called the Flabuless Facebook Losers, we weigh in and report in on Mondays with our weight, this will run the weeks that the new Biggest loser show runs. Week one is about gone and I am down 4 pounds.

I also must confess I spend way to much time on facebook playing those stupid games. I tell myself every day, I am going to exercise before turning om my games but the next thing I know its time for bed and the only part of me that got exercise was my fingers, on the mouse and then key board!!! Its not funny, this sight (Facebook) has sabotaged my sanity! Ok I got that off my chest so now I need to go do my farming, my sunflowers are ready, facebookers ya know what I mean!

I have confessed my bad habits here for all to see so now maybe I will fix them? I will update how my weigh in goes Monday!

Thanks for listening (reading)

Karen,

As another facebook addict, I sure can relate!  I am really into those games!  Sure are a great time waster.  I probably will have withdrawal when I go back to work Monday!!    Look me up if you want more neighbors!  I am Nancy Gartner.  

HI, I lurk here every day , I read your posting about the losers club on facebook and am interested in knowing more about it, how did you get on it? I tried search but must have done something wrong.  I need a boost to start losing again.   Thanks, Norma

 It is being coordinated by Stacey Churpakovich Collins.  It is private so posts do not show up.  You have to be invited to join.  There are no requirements to join.  It is private so that no one on facebook knows you are in the group if you don't want them too.  Stacy is a member of OH as well.
