Edited August 7, 200917 yr by IndioGirl55

So I'm an IDIOT. I went running today with my students because I really wanted to run AND the doc said if I felt better that I could. Well I felt fine the whole time I am running, but when I came home and took the girls out of the gladiator bra....HOLY SH!T that hurt. It felt like it was ripping off my body. Soooooo...no running for a bit.

Well I think I am going to go to bed. I am exhausted!!!!!

Hey Gang

Well didn't get a chance to post pre-gym - Sister will be here tomorrow - so had to strip the bed when I got home - and need to go put the sheets in the dryer in a sec - Went to gym - had a good arm workout - has some Acaiberry power drink - it did the trick - cuz of my lack of sleep last nite from the runs I almost wasn't going to gym tonite..

I had some awesome creamy tortilla Soup for lunch - so I stopped at the store before I came home from gym and am going to try and make it for dinner tomorrow - my soup didn't have any chicken in it - but I am going to add some - my BIL couldn't just eat a cream soup for dinner lol - he is on the larger size ;0)

Karri - You are allergic if you have hives - did you tell the doc - hugs on the runs - I feel your pain - was up all last night - but they are gone today.

I want to go to NYC one of these days - maybe we should do our #7 there next year????

Don't worrry about the $$$ you can pay me when we meet in July..

How's the boob doing??

Steph - Glad FIL coming home - do they think they got it early enough ??

Karla - there has to be something they can do to fix you - You and Candice sound like doctors ;0) - with all your medical jargon ;0).. Hugs - I understand why you work at the nursery - but gf you do have to take care of you..

Candice - WTG on your food today - get some acaiberry power shots - it will make you feel better - but take it in the a.m. ;0) - Hugs - we all have those days...

It's beautiful here tonite - warm - I hope phyl is having good weather...

Well gotta go put sheets in the dryer and start my dinner

Janet, have fun with your sister.

Steph, did you find your fabric and walking foot?

Finished quilting the wholecloth last night! Tonight (if all goes well) I'll sew on the binding and then hand sew it over. It has a scalloped edge, so I will probably take me about a week to get it sewn down. I'm going to have to dig through what isn't in storage and find a new project. I really want to get started on a penny rug. Eventually going to make a penny rug purse. I think I will make one and put it on ebay and see if it sells. Wool is darn expensive so I don't know if any one would bid for what it will cost to construct. But who knows, if your don't try, you never will know!! The other place I'm looking to sell is etsy. So we shall see?

Janet; I LOVE LOVE LOVE your idea about the Lucky 7's trip next year in New York City... OMG I have always wanted to go there, but DH would never like the BIG APPLE...Plus, there's shopping galore, broadway shows, boat tours... or... we could do a CRUISE of the Eastern Seaboard with NYC being one of the stops!!!!!!:sifone:

Finally home, meeting after school and then getting ready for a sub. So home and need to work on master's stuff, so will be in and out tonight. Steph, it will work out. Just remember, Michael is snotty with you because he knows no matter what, you will always love him. If his dad comes back into the picture, remember that the dad will be perfect in every way...for awhile. Then his true colors will show. My girls figured it out, it took some time, years actually, but the see him for what he is. Love you!!

Quiet night?

Steph I hope all went well with Michael. Hang in there!

Nothing much going on here. On campus today and tomorrow. Will be busy writing my application for the teacher at sea. Who knows, maybe they will think a landlocked hick from Montana will add geographic diversity?

Won't be home until late, class isn't over until 5:30 and then thinking about going out for beverages with one of the other teachers. Need to stop at Wallyworld and pick up a few things. Then turn around tomorrow and do it all again. Good thing we have Presidents day off soon.

Check in later!

Good Morning Gang

Drive by post - My sis is here so I won't be online much this weekend..

OK 7/2011 Lucky#7 - NYC - So start saving !!!!!!

Tavern on the Green - Central Park - 911 Site - Subway - 5th Ave - Little Italy - Broadway show - - I think we need a week :0) !!!

This has to be quick - dont' want to get caught being online while at work :0)..

Phyl welcome back tomorrow - hope you had a good time

I should be able to go to NYC! I just got a 6000$ raise. WAHOOOOOOOOOOO! This is why I love NOT being in a union. The raise won't happen until July 1 (Happy Birthday to me!!!!) but I am very happy. I'm pretty certain that if I worked hourly that I would make around minimum wage, but at least it is compensating me for the extra work around here. We all negotiate separately for our contracts. But my boss negotiated with me early because he was (rightfully) afraid that I was going to leave and wanted to make sure that I got the raise that I deserved. So he made the offer to me first. I countered that a 10% raise was great but that in addition to that he remove 3 classes from my upcoming caseload, guarantee that I was teaching no more than 20 hours in a week (we also act a counselors, secretaries, tutoring etc. so our job constitutes way more than teaching), and give me a 20,000$ science budget. We compromised on a 15,000$ budget but I got everything else that I wanted. 'bout stinking time!!!

Well speaking of work, I am back here tonight and I am NOT leaving until all of my grading is done. I should probably get busy or I'm gonna be here all night!!!

Another painting day today... hungry today... so I ate a little more , but good food choices and lots of protien!!

i just finished watching "Driving Miss Daisy" with JEssica Tandy and MOrgan Freeman...OMGosh.. I cried like a baby at the end.... I had forgotten what a good movie it was!
