TracyK

Good morning everyone! I slept like a log last night and so did Macy. All that exercise and heat can wear a person out. When we went toobing, I made sure I had on loads of sunblock and it worked well in most places, right? Well, I had these big dandruff looking things in my hair and finally realized my scalp had burnt and was peeling. How attractive, right? Well, dd has a burnt scalp now so I know in a few days she will be shedding like an english sheepdog just like I was! Luckily she has real blonde hair so it will not be too noticeable! Is there a sunblock for hair & scalp? Terri-I think I will start a word journal. I really miss keeping one cause it is very theraputic. I loved that link of where you are going this weekend. Looks like fun! Laura-babies are fun... Especially when you can bring them back to their mom. lol But seriously, I know what you mean about the yearning to have one. Good luck! You will be a great momma! Then you will have an internal clock and wake up early like me Jane-sorry to hear about what you are going through. I wish I were there to give you a big hug! Jennifer...we miss you!! Kat-what a great NSV! I LOVE IT! Tracy-how was the meatloaf? Haydee-how was Galveston? Suzie-If we had a deck I would probably live outside! I need to get my butt in gear. Have a great day everyone! Hi Judy, Pamela and Michelle!! (if I missed someone I am sorry)

I dunno why but this sounded like the "time to make the do-nuts" commercial from years ago. I am weird, I know! We had a blast at moms. It was definitely pool weather here today. Terri-yeah, Newfield is a big one. And the usual, Exxon, Shell, Applied Drilling, Anadarko, Chevron and BP. Things just go ballistic around our office when a storm enters the gulf. An A/R nightmare! The back to back Katrina and Rita liked to have put me in an early grave:cursing: I wish we were all sitting on the back porch in Gruene with a drink. I really would like to talk to all of you again! I have so much on my mind. I used to keep a diary and then found out that having those things around can be dangerous. Then there are blogs but I can't do that either. yikes..dh is home..gotta go. Have a great evening violets!!!

Terri-love the pics! You look fantastic. Your son looks younger than your daughter. When was the graduation, Saturday? I heard something on the news and it freaked me out. I knew it already but I guess hearing it on the morning news really triggered something in me. If a hurricane does any damage to the oil platforms in the Gulf this year, gas prices will just about double. EEK! That is freaky. Have a great day everyone. I will check back in when we get home from moms.

Hi Violets-what a relaxing day! I put a roast in the crock pot this morning then I laid around like a slug and read my book for a while then went shopping. Mom called and said that we are invited to her house tomorrow to go swimming. WOOHOOO! I love pools now as opposed to before when I had a phobia of them! Kat-I am glad the card made it to you. I thought it was cute. How is Kinsey coping with not being with you as much as usual? Have a great evening everyone!

Good morning everyone!

AWWWW,,,,poor little guy!!!

Oh... macy got to go on her very first field trip today. She was excited cause she had to bring a sack lunch with her for the picnic part of it. When I brought her to school she wanted to eat her lunch THEN...So...I ended up explaining the whole "you have to wait until it is lunch time to eat your lunch" thing. She was crushed. She wanted her pringles ASAP

By not having new tips, does that mean we are now clueless? :w00t:

Pam-when does BB start again? Soon I hope!

Cameron Diaz...I only like her in Shrek (that way I do not have to see her! lol)

Tracy-good job on sending the chiller back! Part of a shake is better than a whole chiller...I guess. Calorie wise. lol See? Laura agrees with me about the pimento cheese on the cracklins. BUT...I have no pimento cheese in the house and I have no plan on buying any, so its cool! Pamela-I wanna go see Madonna!! She is coming to Houston in November too. She is my FAV! OK, so I weighed this morning and have lost 4 pounds of the 17 I gained so 13 to go. This next week is the week before TOM and I always lose very well that week so I will keep my fingers crossed! Jane-have fun :thumbup: Have a great day violets! TGIF!

Way to go Michelle! Kat-nope, never found the shirt. It is OK, it was way too big for me anyway. I just wanted it since my mm brought it to me from Jamaica. I will just tell her she needs to go get me another one. LOL Laura-I wonder what is causing you to choke like that. That has to be a scary experience!

I know you all are right and thank you so much. I just wish I would get the flu or something... (sad right?) lol

Tracy-I got my check in the mail too.

Thank you all so much! I guess I need to cut myself some slack. I am probably being too hard on myself?! :wink2: I probably need you all to slap me around awhile.... :thumbup: Have a great day everyone.... CTCD!!!! (boy I need one of these)

Kat-I wish I would not have gained any weight while quitting smoking but it is what it is, huh?! I just do not want to tell myself it is OK to be 18whatever just because I do not smoke anymore. Truth be told I am quite down about the whole thing but I refuse to light a cigarette over it. At least I am losing some of it. I will just have to deal with it the best way I know...I just don't know how yet. Still trying to figure it out. Have a good night everyone!

Way to go Terri !! Amazing what following the rules will get ya, right? lol

18 years....

Terri-thanks for those words of wisdom! I surely needed it!
