Good morning!!

Kat that sounds good.

I need to WAKE up!!

I have a super busy and late day today!! Makes up for yesterday when I had two people!! I am seriously freaking out about money. Know it is not just me, everybody at work is slow. I just need to get my butt in gear and find another job. Don't know what to do, I hate to go on an interview weighing this much. Shouldn't be hard, nobody else is looking..............

Jenn, I though coconut oil was bad for you?

I've been watching Glee, I didn't like last night's episode as much as I liked the other 2.

I have a friend who is allergic to like literally everything except coconut and shrimp.. so she has to cook things in coconut oil, and she says you can't tell it's coconut.

I ordered Carson a 'lovey', and I got delivery confirmation from USPS yesterday-- but I didn't get it, I got someone else's package. What a bummer, USPS is so hard to deal with, I may never see that $40 lovey. Was hoping to have it for this weekend, get my smell all over it to leave with him while I'm in Atlanta and Carson is with mom, see if it helps him any.

I made a 3-bean salad last night, recipe from allrecipes. Never made it myself before, so I got to find a recipe that has 3 Beans I wanted (kidney, green, and chick peas). The dressing, I tasted it last night it was wonderful (honey/garlic/vinegar/mustard), and it's been marinating over night. I can't wait to get home and try it!!!!!

Laura, before you go to work today, take a few of his receiving blankets and put down in your bed--between the sheets. Leave them there, until you take him to your Moms. It will get then scented like you and Russell for him. And they will be small enough she can have them scattered around. You can even roll one up with the shirt you wore yesterday--anything that you have had steady contact with, will scent it to them I was told.

Where does he sleep at your Moms?

If he uses a bassinet, you can take your pillowcases to use as sheets on the bassinet mattress and they will be scented too.

Yeah I do receiving blankets now, and I have rolled up shirts I wore the day before... I just wanted to start getting him use to an item since he's become more aware (fighting sleep, realizing where he is--and isn't at home). Just a peeve thing, I was ready to start getting this item ready, had it all mapped out.. now I don't!

Hello lovely Violets!!

Well, I didn't get the job, I was the 2nd choice. So I keep looking!!

I do, however, have a new resolve to use the time I have been given to a better advantage -- walking on the treadmill every day, Curves three days a week minimum, etc. I have wasted so much time while I have not been working.....

Laura - I know how picky you are, so I'm going to trust you on this ... LOL

I have a super sniffer so I could smell it when I opened the container.

Jane - I have a list of good things it does for you, I'm going to see if i can find it in my email and send it to you. I do not get fat in any other form lately and I think it is messing with me.

Suzy - that is what I have been doing - I started walking every day but then relationship bs... I started to focus my anger and depression on exercise, some days I walked 10 miles a stretch just thinking. Now it is given, rain or sun, I'm out there.... good for you!

I hate the post office. They always manage to screw something up... Did you buy it from Etsy? That sucks that you didn't get it...

What are ya'll doing in Atlanta? Just you and Russ??

The dealership just called me, my car is heeeerrrreee!!

And I wont be here this weekend to enjoy it, bummer...

Juan says he will enjoy it for me!!!

[Teachlady 3]

Just a drive by post as I'm getting the laptop packed up to take with us. Will check in tonight. Everyone have a great day!!

[Daisalana 33]

Jenn- I never tried it!! That's just what she told me hehe.

Woohooo new car!

I bought it from ebay....

We're going with my dad to see Braves (dads team) vs. Phillies (russ team). I'm going for the trip.

Hey girls~

Have fun Judy and Laura. We have a mellow weekend planned. Going to BA's pirate party (Yes, i promise to take pix of us dressed up) and then Saturday, we are going to see this German movie, The Badder Meinhoff at the artsy fartsy theatre. Susanne saw it last year at the film festival and wants to take me! Other than that relaxing!

I miss the gym...can't wait until I go back, probably Monday. Although I feel better, I am still sick, sound like shit, blowing nose all day...and am ready for my afternoon nap.

Suzy, the right job will come when it is right for you!

[Haydee 2]

Okay, I'm outta here girls... I'm on my way to go pick up my car, then I gotta get my nails done and then dinner with a friend and then I gotta pack for my mini vacay.

Laura and Judy, have fun on your mini trips too.

Pammy - have fun at your partay and make sure you take tons of pics...

I'm not taking my laptop so I won't see ya'll lovies until Monday. I'll post pics!!!

Everyone have a great weekendddddddddddddd!!!!!

Kisssesssssss....

My last post was typed one handed..

Have fun Judy!!

Mom set up a treadmill in her nook in her bedroom overlooking the lake, and she set up a tv in there so she watches the lake, or reruns of Six Feet Under while walking. She said she's done a mile every night. So proud of her.

I bought a book "Eat This Not That", has really interesting info. I need to get my head back in the game, I'm creeping back up to 300lbs :thumbup: I e-mailed my band doc today and let him know I don't feel anything from the omnipaque, so what's the next course. Hopefully, he'll send me cost to do a superficial fix of the port without anesthesia and hopefully it's affordable, and I can just fix it for now. Otherwise.. eh.

I also started looking around at daycare just to get an idea. When I have baby #2, I'm going to have to put Carson in daycare, I can't have 2 babes at work. It's a ways away, but figured I'd start research early. Anyone have experience with putting their kids in daycare when they are 2-3 years old and aren't use to daycares?

Hey all.. just a quick post. bob needs to use the laptop. We have a beautiful hotel room. It's a Hampton Inn and they redid top to bottom a year ago. It's a great room. We didn't do much tonight. Just dinner and then hit the pool and hot tub. tomorrow we're just going to be lazy and go window shopping and Sam's club and the casino.

Bob and I talked in the hot tub about the trip in May. He's more than happy to be the designated driver of one of the vehicles. We'll probably need two unless we can get a van.

It's going to be another nice get away for us. He said" are you sure they want me there?" I said.. "they all know the Bobster!! What's not to want??" ooops..that didn't come out right.

Off to read and relax.. *wink,wink* Everyone have a good evening. sleep well!!
