I'd better keep an eye on the clock- moving slooooowly again. I went to bed last night around 8. I woke up righ tbefore the alarm went off, and all i could think was please let it be 4 am, not 5 am. :(

Do you ever have a day where you don't stop moving, you do a lot, but you feel like you got absolutely nothing accomplished? That was my day yesterday. I hope that i can get stuff done today- feel like I actually did something.
I came up with the recipe for a hand/manicure massage oil, but when I went to infuse my calendula flowers, they didn't smell right so I ended up tossing the whole bag. Now I have to get more, so that puts me at least a week behind on that product.

Tip on Tuesday?
Oh here is one- I don't typically like frozen pizza, but I picked one up last week since it was on sale. Dr. oekters spinach pizza. It was actually very good. They were on sale at shop rite for $2.99 and I had a $1 coupon- so I tried it last night with ravioli for dinner. You need more than one for dinner, but it was really good and had lots of spinach.
Just a friendly FYI for your food shopping pleasure :D
 
i won't be able to get to everyone, but let me do a quick personal here...

Hi birthday O'Fairy!!!!!

nana- I am so glad you got to sleep in, you need to take care of yourself so you can take care of all of your babies. Hugs~~~~

kristy- it snowed here too! Yuck!!!!! Thankfully it all melted by noon, but I still don't even want to see thatstuff!

Poor meg!! How did you survive yesterday? Or should I ask if BIL survived??

Chris how are things w the new med?

I'm on my phone so apologies in adv for typos. Ugh another "Monday" morning for us where jeff wakes me up wayyyyyy too early. He woke me up to ask if he could make me breakfast. Oh well that's sweet. He lived another day.
BIL survived. Jeffs taking care of that situation, long story but it's time we slapped his bro into reality.
Yesterday we ended up running errands and going out to a nice lunch together. I got new contacts for the first time in forever. Took all afternoon for my eyes to adjust. Now I need to wear eye makeup again to not look so plain.
Ugghhhhhh so tired. I better get up and shower or something.
 
Morning all... :rain: today and off to work at 10:00 for a short 4 hrs. Took lots of advil for my back and its actually not feeling too bad this morning.

Meg- sounds like you had a nice day with your MG!! Glad that you did not commit murder :laser: on your BIL LOL Hope your eyes adjust quickly to your new contacts, and I bet you look just beautiful without all that makeup!!

Kristy - glad that your snow did not stick around too long, it is time for spring already!!

Chris - That's a shame about your massage oil having to be thrown out!! It sounded like it would have been very nice! I have lots of days where you feel like you have run around in circles all day, but don't get anything done, I hate those days!! It feels like the whole day was wasted!! Thanks for the tip on the pizza, I will have to try it out!

Nana Linda - :wave: hope your day goes well!! Thanks for all of the love in the gallery last night!! You were one busy lady!! :hug:

Well hope everyone has a great Tuesday!! I think that I will do a gallery run myself. :wave:
 
Opps... Laurie I forgot you :oops: how great that you are sticking with your treadmill walking!! Hope your day is not too stressful for you !
 
Hi- back for a minute... food shopping literally wiped me out.I need a nap!

Meg- the med I am on is Tindamax. I am on it 1 week out of the month. I was on it 2 weeks/mo. That is what Gary's schedule is for it. Scott is on it 5 days a week, 3 weeks/month.
Its a really strong, brutal abx. Its commonly taken for STD's- but you might only have to take 1-3 pills *total.*
It has been shown to really kill the cyst for of the Lyme bacteria, especially when taken in combo with other abx.
Poor Scott really hates it and I feel so bad. But he is thankful that he will get better. And I know he appreciates that we don't tell him stuff like "Its not so bad."

So basically each day, I feel a bit worse as I herx and get die off. Typically my right knee will be killing me soon. I must have a large colony of Lyme dudes in it and in my right ankle b/c they seem to hurt the worst.

But on to good news- did you all see on FB that ME had her baby?? I think I saw her photo posted on Sunday. Such a pretty girl! Congrats ME!!

Hi laurie and kristy!

meg- Glad to hear your BIL is still alive- no way would I come visit you in Alcatraz :pound:
 
back to yesterday...

Clara...
Soooo happy that Ethan had fun at the derby-that's the main thing in life, right? Please tell Andrea to get her butt back over here, just to say Hi. I see her pics of Walter on FB but I would love to have her hang with us. Bribe her with the O-Birthday Party!
thx for the Happy Monday/coffee vibes!

Sally- *sighs* apparently I do the same too..... wish there was someway to pace ourselves! Good luck with the "no coffee/soda" I was poping B12's too, and its just not the same, is it?
But you'll feel better and sleep better, right?

Have fun watching GWTW! Would *love* to come down and watch with you!! No one here likes it so I have to watch by myself.

Trudy- I wish I could have helped with your yard. it is still too wet and cold to do much here, but I am trying to work on scooping 3 months worth of dog poop that was uncovered by the melting snow LOL
I am happy that you and YMG are talking again. I bet he feels terrible about it all.
Happy birthday to your baby GDD! I don't know how you do it being away from them. My mom would have moved in with us by now. She misses my kids if she doesn't see them for over a week!

xoxo to everyone!
 
Do you ever have a day where you don't stop moving, you do a lot, but you feel like you got absolutely nothing accomplished? That was my day yesterday. I hope that i can get stuff done today- feel like I actually did something.

only every single day!!!
 
Morning ladies,

I am in a mood this morning. I feel like yesterday was a big fat waste of time. My wonderful husband has known for awhile how bad I wanted to get my hair done, so he told me Sunday night to go get it done. I called and set up an appointment and the place I thought my mom goes to (turns out she hates the place I went, go figure) and explained what I wanted done. They told me it would take about 3 hours and would cost about $160. That wasn't as much as I thought it would be so I was excited and I went it. So first she cuts my hair -- too short, I was mad but I got over it. Then she starts to bleach it and does it wrong. The top of my hair was platinum blonde and the bottom was chestnut brown. I was really irratated but she said once she put the color over it that it would blend well and it would look fine. Nope, once she put the color on the platinum blonde turned to dingy green. I was freaking out. So then she put toner on it, still had a green tint, so she put a different toner on, now it had a red tint. By this time I had been there for FIVE HOURS. Everyone was waiting on me for dinner, and she still hadn't done my highlights. I was so mad I just told her to leave it how it was. My mom swears it looks great and Mario says he really likes it but I spent $125 and it isn't at all what I wanted. What do you guys think?

Sorry, I needed to vent. I'll be back a little later to post personals, some new LOs and go gallery hopping.
 
Hey ladies...I am going to attempt to be quick. We'll see how that goes. I am counting down the days to the Birthday party!! It will be SOOOOOOO much fun. I love all the new faces and excitement it brings. Not to mention goodies. I have never left a birthday party without a folder full of goodies...and the designers love to shower us with sales and treats and oh my gosh...I could go on and on!! One year...I even got to apply to be a guest Cheery-O. I think that was 2 years ago. That was so much fun. Every year is different and every year is great. Yay!!! Can't wait.

Oh!! So, I was watching tv the other night and saw the commercial for the iPad2 that is coming out and looked at derek and said "What do you want to bet Dave is getting that?" He laughed...but we are totally serious. Well, he is already selling us his Mac for an unGodly low amount so me and the kids went to go see Derek the other night while he was on duty and Dave was there so I asked him...half joking...sp how much you want to sell us the Apple bundle for? Yep...$800 for the ipad and the mac. He still has the box and everything for all of it. I know Derek will overtake the ipad...but still. Dave is such a gadget geek and I LOVE that we get all of his second hand stuff. It rocks!! Life is good. We've gotten all sorts of crazy stuff from him. But he will also spend $250 on a remote control because it is cool. He's 35 and single, what else does he have to spend his money on? I do not mind benefitting from that. I love that he lives here. I especially love that he doesn't annoy the crap out of me like he used to. It sucks though because he's going to be deploying in the semi-near future. And he is finishing up his schooling and stuff for a fairly dangerous job in some pretty dangerous places. But he'll only have 6 month deployments, so that is a little better.

So, nothing going on today really. Ethan was home sick yesterday and really didn't want to go to school this morning again. These kids are so mine. They wake up about as well as I do. I don't know how people function in the morning. I guess I do okay. I get Ethan fed, lunch made, do his hair and to the bus every morning. Anyway, I got housework to do, so I better get...

Chris - those abx sound brutal but if they do their job...I guess that's what you have to do. I truly believe you and Scott are getting so close. I will harass Andrea for you for sure and tell her to get her butt in here for you. Oh, and I have those days everyday. I need an electronic nanny that tells me what to do throughout the day. that would be so cool.

Laurie - Go Girl!! I really need to get off my butt. I think me and Addie are going to start playing on the wii to start getting a little active. I hope that helps me get my butt into gear. Sorry all the craziness in your house has cause you to be stressed.

Kristy - I hope the snow goes away for you too!

Meg - Derek used to do that to me a long time ago before we had kids. He would make me breakfast so he had an excuse to wake me up. He knew if he just woke me up I would not be happy at all.

Kayleigh - That sucks that you aren't happy with your hair. I have never had my hair colored in a salon...I've had it done by a stylist but never in a salon. How frustrating for you. I think it looks good. If you are not happy with it find out when the manager will be there and go back and have her fix it. Sometimes that helps. Maybe you'll be able to get your highlights for free. But go in and talk to the manager about it, call ahead of time to find out when they will be there. Hugs!! There is nothing worse than being unhappy with your hair.
 
Kayleigh! im sorry you didnt get wha tyou wanted! i got my hair done at a salon once....and it was just horrible i hated it and it cost SO much so that ruined me for ever going back to one again! i'll stick to my good old feria!!!
 
Hey girlies...just resting up here, trying to get things organized for this weekend!! *whew* you are in for some fun!! for sure!!!!

I'm ready to start mega-scrapping this weekend. I've kinda taken off from it due to other things crowding in. So it's time this spring break to spend it scrapping! I also intend on getting some LOs printed at the end of the week next week, too!! That way I have a goal and some fun books to get, too!!

We are cleaning house this week slowly. We have our best friends' kids (my kids' best friends) staying with us from Thursday until Monday morning, and Lillian's birthday party is Sunday!! So we'll have a houseful, and I'm still exhausted from my life falling in around me! :) Thus, cleaning slowly! (And the kids are doing most of it!! Wish I had had two more...justkidding!! LOL!!)

Hope you guys are having a wonderful, wonderful Tuesday...I'm still loving each and every day!!

Ohhh and I have to tell you this little anecdote...
We had this guest speaker this Sunday at church and he said he had this person in fifth grade that taught him what TGIF meant. "Thank God it's Friday" which translated "every other day of the week sucks!!" (well, he said stinks, but I translated it in my head!! LOL!!) And then he said, I love Mondays!! They're great!!! and Tuesday - Thursday, too!! I'm sooo glad to have each and every day to breathe!!" I laughed and thought of all of you and how that is how I must sound!! (I do love Mondays thru Thursdays, too!! LOL!!) Cracked me up!!

hugs to all of you...love you all!!
 
Ohhhh Sally... I just love your wonderful outlook on life !! You are an inspiration to all of us :hug:
