Daily Ooo's: Monday, April 22

*channeling Sally** Come in Sally!!!!!!!:typing:

Its Monday and I am looking for the new day and week and fresh start feeling to flow over me!!!! I am sick to death about my funky-bad mood and I am so done with it. (In other words, To my family-- do not piss me off!!:mad2 hahaha!!!!
I was able to do a bit of mental regrouping yesterday. Got some anger out at my family on Saturday, hopefully it sunk into Scott's head. Cait and her BFF told me me some nice things, and Gary helped look up some new recipes to try that I had been asking him to do for a long time. And the best thing-- I did something for *myself*
And guess what??? The world did not end!!!

I really wanted to get Scott and Cait t shirts to wear at the Lyme Disease Protest we are going too. They were expensive but I felt that they deserved them. And you know what? So do I. Yes, I said it. I deserved something too. Last night, the 2 of us picked out t-shirts and I ordered them and it felt good!!!

How was everyone's weekend? I was good-- did my situps both days and yesterday I walked a mile and a half. It was cold and my freind and i walked pretty briskly. I feel it in my legs today.

I don't know if you all remember her, but we had a member here, Cat, (screen name?? don't remember it if it wasn't Cat) - who ran inthe London Marathon yesterday.She was raising money for Lupus which she has. I am so proud of her, but I can't imagine how her legs must feel, if mine are sore just from a mile walk.

Guess it it time to be to stop :blah:, hope that you all have a wonderful, happy, and positive-vibed Monday!!

quickies from the weekend:

nancy- sounds like your day with the Devils was amazing!! Good pick with your puck

Trudy- how was the BBQ and visit with your bother? I like yoga too its just so hard to find the peace and quiet to do it.

Cynthia- so happy to hear that things are easing up with your DD. I am sure that the stress of it all makes your fibro flare up big time. Have you had any luck with symptom-management or pain mgt? My Lyme dr wanted to put me on some meds for it but my insurance didn't cover it. Prob just as well since I am taking so much crap anyway. But if you have any natural remedies, I;d love the give them a shot when I get the fibro flare too.

hugs!!

Morning O fam- feeling more like me- we (DH, DS & I) had a good weekend. We all got work done and worked together. The basement is coming together, my son seemed more positive. Easy to get off the couch when everyone else is. This week I only work 2 days, then I am visiting my friend Anna Wed eve & Thursday. I may go pick up a new phone today, we will see how the work day goes. I did my workout, scales went down over a pound. Today I am going to order table and counter "bar" stools for the basement. We decided to have the grand opening on Memorial Day weekend! Okay, I need to shower and get ready for work. Cross my fingers that I am not in too funky of a mood to check back in when I get home!!

sit ups- 5 sets/16-- slowly improving!!!

Good morning - well my NJ Devils will not make the play-offs this year. They were eliminated in a 4-1 loss to cross river rivals the NY Rangers. Now that that has been settled I am free to cheer for any team I want LOL. I still have two home games on Tues and Thurs and I am still going and cheer for my team. Got a lot done on Sunday including mowing the lawn. A good walk with my girlfriend.

Chris glad you had a good talk with your family. Good for walking with your girlfriend. And congrats on keeping up with your sit ups.

Laurie how wonderful to know you have a nice visit with your girlfriend this week. Congrats on your workouts.

Have a great day all!

Happy Monday ladies... its a beautiful sunny day here and I plan on a very long walk later today, want to join me Chris?? We will work the soreness out of your leg muscles!!

Chris - So happy that you actually did something and bought something for yourself!! Hooray the world did not end :boom: LOL WTG on the sit-ups!! We had a great visit with my brother, he is still waiting for a phone call to say that his third grandchild has come into the world. His wife is still in Australia hoping to be there when the big event happens, but she must be back here in Canada by the 6th of May so this little one better get moving!! Brother is very happy to be back home and as much as he loves being with his kids and grandkids, he is a true B.C. boy and loves it here on the Island! He said the only other place he would ever move to is New Zealand, they toured there for a couple of weeks before they headed to Australia and said that every corner you went around took your breath away!! Now I want to go too!!


Laurie - Wonderful news that the three of you all worked together and that your son is in a bit better frame of mind! Hope your good mood continues throughout the day and WTG on the loss of weight! Keep up the good work!

Nancy - Sorry about your Devils, but now perhaps you can cheer alongside of me and my hubby! Nice that you got in a good walk with your girlfriend! Hope your Monday is a great one!

Well lots of :washing: to do today and then some time in the yard and off for my walk oh ya I got my one painting project done for my sister, a little stool for her her granddaughter to stand on while she brushes her teeth.

Hi all! I am finally, slowly able to breathe again-I have a nasty head cold. Not much planned for today, just healing. Spring is supposed to happen here this week or so they say. I'll be happy if it does.

Happy Afternoon, Monday Peeps!!!
I'm sorry I've been MIA...My computer had to go to the Dell hospital and get a new MotherBoard (i like capitalizing it like MotherShip!! LOL!!). For some reason, it's so much easier to check in here in the privacy of my own craft studio instead of in the open on the "family computer" to which I was relegated. Good news though...it was all FREE!!! (since the sucker is only 6 months old!!! eeeeeek!) My Cora says..."always with the computer probs!!" I don't know what I'm doing to kill my technology, but this time the fix didn't seem so bad!!

I've also been a little distracted with our new toy...a 2000GT Mustang convertible!! eeeek!! Today is in the high 70s and I'm soooo living it up!! I told Mr Gorgeous that I was taking over the laundry (Cora actually looked panicked when I told her that!! LMBO!!) because he was spoiling me so much!! I think I will get the convertible everyday now! LOL!!!

I'm off to make a gift for a friend...her birthday was in February, but I don't think she'll mind that it's a bit late!! LOL!!

love you all!! Have a WONDERFUL rest of your FRESH START day!! I'm sending all of our warm sunshiny-ness from here to you!!!

 

[taxed4ever]

Phylis - Welcome back, so glad that you had a great time with the grand men!! But ohhh nooo not another infection!! Better get to the Dr!!

Heather - What great news that you are finally getting spring in your neck of the woods, its about time!! Feel better soon my Alberta friend!!

Sally - Would love to take a spin in your convertible !! Thanks for spreading around the sunshine, we are loving all the sun here today too!
