I do the force feed. I have the timer set on my phone and I eat every 3 hours.

I do believe you are doing this to yourself because you have been away from home for awhile now, and... you have no one else to do it to.

Hi Ghoulies,

I'm alive and well.  Working at the new branch, interviewing all of my new staff to find out what they think is going well at the branch, and what they would like to see changed.  Lots of interesting information coming through.

I've got most of my office set up.  I have a window to the outside, so I'm thinking of putting a birdfeeding outside my window.  Will shop for that this weekend.  Found out the old branch manager had a bird feeder also.  LOL

Hope that everyone is doing well here.  Will try to go back and catch up, but not sure when. 

Well it was working...but its pretty old and my supervisor here is moving to a new institution in Aug. So he doesnt want to buy a new one becuase of ownership problems when he moves. If the guy in edmonton doesnt have one, he really has no choice, as I cant do the work without a working respirator. So we will see.

Hahaha...sucker

I'm sorry...but not really hahaha

Just ride your bike Bill, just ride your bike.

Yes, I've noticed over the years that when it is hot we eat a lot less than when it is cold.  I think it goes back to the days prior to central heating.  In the winter we need the fat to keep our bodies warm, and in the summer we don't.    That's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

ROTFLMAO!!!

There you go, Bill. Ride your BIKE!

Too funny!!!

That's a very good theory Kendra.

Haha. Neal is missing all the fun!

What is this not being hungry you speak of?     damn IM training!

Hungry toppage!

And apparently I don't know how to quote..

Add number 7 to your list today: "Kept effin up the quotes"

At this point I'm thinking you should just head home, go for a ride or run, have a drink, and just go bed

I wish Neal...I wish...

I'm planning on going for an easy ride tonight after supper on the bike course for the sprint this weekend. But (number 8) it looks like its going to rain...so we'll see...Its not a bright sunny day here.

I haven't had a drink since probably January..haha...So that could be interesting...hmmm...

And bed...oh how I want bed...

Hi ghouls.  I missed some kind of fun today.  Good to hear from Bill and to know he is doing well all on his own.  As for not being hungry when it's hot, please send some of that my way.  Today is a rest day for me but I think I'm going to go to the Y and do a class or something.  

Can't recall if I posted this earlier but this week brought some special arrivals.  You may remember the fire a few months ago that took out 4 of my neighbor's homes.  Well, the permits have all been secured via bribery no doubt in this state and the tear down is beginning.  3 large construction bins and a port-a-potty landed about 100 feet from my garage door.  Nice.  Oh well, I think it will be time to clean out the basement and toss some stuff into those bins.

Yes, yes you did Kim.

So...Not that it needs to be decided ASAP...but...

Do I return to competitive swimming for short course season this upcoming year? Swimming 4x week M-TH from Sept to Febish (depending on when Provincials are)...?

School is more or less the same from what I had last yr...
IM training starts in Feb-March I figure...

Debating with myself...

This user's post has been ignored.

So I'm home now...and I'm going to boycott my ride tonight...Just too tired right now. Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeppppp...

Just had supper...now I'm going to hang out...maybe watch a movie.

My Dearest Gouhlies,

I miss you!!! I have been going out of my mind with business, running around like a crazy lady. I need my daily dose of Gouhlie to bring me back down, but it just isn't happening this week.
On the plus side, the tri I was on the directing committee for went well. So well, in fact, that I have been asked to be RD next year. I am still trying to figure out how to kindly decline, since my hubby's not on board, and May and June tend to be very busy months around my house, what with hubby's travels, school ending, kids activities, my coworkers traveling and needing their shifts covered and whatnot. I am working a couple extra shifts this week, and hubby's been gone 3 of the last 4 weeks (thus the inablility to be here long enough to catch up--even when all of you are sound asleep. I hope you have visions of sugarplums dancing in your head. Or at least sweaty cyclists and rhythmic movements ).

I hope to be back and around during the day by early next week. 
Who's gonna do the summary for me so I can get/stay caught up? And what is this PAMelindy thing I saw? PAM? Huh? 


Lonely and adrift in a sea of things non-Goulie,
 
Me 

p.s.: if I am not back soon, send a search party. I may be dehydrated and in desperate need of margaritas.  MWAH! 

Good morning Ghoulies!

Kim and Amy we have missed you!!!

Good morning ghoulies!

I had a bad run last night.  Legs felt really tight and instead of turning around like I should have I kept going to see if they'd loosen up a bit.  They didn't.  Now I pretty sore again this morning.  That just set back recovery quite a bit
