mndymond - 2010-01-02 6:22 PM Wooo just had my hot shower!!! now its time for foooooooooodddd

mmmmmmmmm foood, mine is attempting to cook in my non working ovenFrown


Yikes!! Might be awhile before it's done then! 

My oven works, but doesn't hold a very even temp.  Not so good for baked goods, but with holidays over, I won't need to make any more baked goods.  (As I munch on the chocolate chip oatmeal cookies that I made yesterday!!)

jealous....kinda! I am soooo glad I don't know how to bake! I am trying soooo hard to eat healthy and baked goods, especially chocolate calls my name if it is in the house! We just got a new stove and had to change it from propane to gas and we are having issues... oven works but shuts off when it wants...hubby has been "playing" with the timer trying to get it right, dinner is a guess every night!


If it's new is it still under warranty? Something definitely doesn't sound right.

Do you have a grill? We cook outside on the grill year round. It was 20 and I was cooking steaks on the grill tonight. The lowest I have ever cooked outside was 8. I'd put on a hat and coat before I'd go out to check on it. 

It was my mom's stove( included in the modular home she bought 1 yr ago)  They use propane, we use gas, just needs the right adjustment...love hubby dearly but not so mechanically inclined.....so what should have been an easy conversion is now months in the making! We do have a grill but I am not so handy with it! I actually use my slowcooker for most of my cooking during the week but there are just times where an oven is what you need!

I'd love to stay and play, but I need to go for my run. Be back in a bit!

As for shirts, how about orange just to be gharish? Seriously though I'm cool with whatever. I'll need an XL.

You know my vote for the warm weather challenge, but I'll wait for everyone's votes.

See you in a bit!!!

Doesn't really matter what colour for me! Maybe red or blue though...lol...if you force me to choose a colour...

Unisex sizing? Small...

No chatting this afternoon. I've been scrubbing grout..grrr.  BUT, it is now sparkly clean!

I'm good with any color, but orange is the current fave.  Unisize..medium.  As for our warm weather challenge, I'm not very good at delaying gratification (a characteristic also common in toddlers and criminals) so bring it on!  Anything to think about when it's 15* and brutal winds are blasting. 

When I lived in Scottsdale, I'd get home in the evening during the summer and go for a dip in the pool to cool off....suits optional. Private back yard, so no peeping.  Why or why did I move to NJ?

Good afternoon Ghoulies! I just got back from a crappy run and need a shower. I just was not feeling it today - I think I need to start running in the morning...

I hope everyone's having a nice day! I'll check back in a bit.

If you still lived at that place in Scottsdale I'd have come scrubbed the grout for you if I could have gone swimming when I was done.

I have not worked out in days and I feel horrible because of it. My cough is a little better today, but anytime I do anything simple, like walking up the stairs I start coughing. I'm swimming tomorrow no matter what and I have to get some miles in on Tuesday even if I have to walk them. Two weeks from now I'll be done with my HM!

Hey dudes! Ahhhh now im tired...and my legs are a little burny...quads specifically...

So I've made a decision to not buy any fast food stuff...at all...(except coffee from tim hortons)...tim hortons is literally like 20feet away from my lecture hall...its a problem...it gives me an excuse to just go get bfast and lunch and not make it at home...$$$ and super unhealthy..haha...So no more! Im going to see how long I can go without breaking my streak!

No McDonalds (not that I really have McDonalds), Tim Hortons across from the lecture hall, Subway, hospital cafeteria, hospital snack bar, hospital coffee place (other than coffee), salad place across from the hospital ($$$, I can make my own darn salad), the Tim Hortons across from the hospital, Tim Hortons in general, Wendy's...

yaaaaaa!

I'll give you some motivation...

With the money you save you can get a new tri bike, wetsuit, or use it toward race fees!!!

You can do it!!!

YAAA!! Thanks Ann! I must say I do need a new wetsuit...my other one is now too big for me...and an actual tri suit this time...I already got a tri bike last year...I don't think I can justify buying myself a new one haha.

Just under 7 miles, but I was planning on a little over 9. I didn't "bonk" or anything, but I was definitely not feeling 100%.

Great motivational factor Ann!

And to jump on Dee's advice above, I'd guess you'll see noticeable differences in the energy and budget departments QUICKLY. Way to go Melissa!

Good morning everyone!!!

It is COLD here today, and a little breezy. It is supposed to be like that for the rest of the week. I CAN'T WAIT TO GET TO ARIZONA!!!

I didn't sleep well last night, up coughing again. I was going to go to the Y and sit in the steam room but I took a nap instead, that will teach me.

Have a great day!

That's how I was last week. I wanted to do 10 but cut off a corner and only went 9. No running today but I'm hoping to get at least 7 tomorrow. I'll have to drink some of my homemade bourbon and honey cough medicine before I go though.

Morning Ghoulies.  Won't have much time to chat today.  First day back at work for a while so it will be nuts.  I did get a little under 4 miles done on the treadmill this morning.  Had to walk more than I'd like as I haven't run in about a month.
