Hi Dee

Sounds like your weekend is definitely NOT going to be slacking!

ironannekidd - 2012-08-02 3:52 AM I am SO going to win this bet with my husband. He is trying to use the excuse he doesn't have time to workout. He keeps saying he can't run in the mornings because of the kids. Our kiddos are old enough that they can be in the house along, and he won't be too far away. I am working from home this morning, I was awake and in the living room when he got up, but he didn't workout. I just need to keep moving, and keep eating better. There are so many things I could spend my extra $50 on.

I have faith in you....and baby steps, Ann! YOU CAN DO IT!!!!

that's one long snooze you have..... haha

build some sand castles and take lots of pictures! and last but not least have a great time!

good luck....and what cool items is she selling that we may want??? 

thanks Dee....I have gotten much help from BT...I was amazed to wake up to over 2000 votes today!!! someone is kicking booty and I soooooo appreciate every vote!

Good morning Ghoulies!

Busy day yesterday, but it was a good one. Went to a picnic for the end of Keri's summer literacy camp. Then took the boy for a physical. He had his football physical done the last day of school and his BP was high. They wouldn't clear him to play, so we had to have his doctor sign off to clear him. When he had his first physical his bp was 133/86, that's too high for a 12 year old. Yesterday it was 110/58. It could have just been he was nervous having it done at school. They use a machine to do it instead of a person, he's never had his bp taken that way.

Yesterday evening we went to a minor league baseball game. It was softball night, and my daughter's softball team got to parade around the field before the game, with lot's of other teams. I got a few pictures, if any of them look any good I'll post of FB later. During the game they were passing around tickets to the fans. Most people were getting 'buy one ticket get one free' my son got a ticket that was to throw out the ceremonial first pitch at a game. Pretty cool. We are going back to that stadium on Sept. 15 with the IT group from the college my husband works at. I am going to call the number on the back today and see if he can do it that game.

wow ~ how fun to throw out the first pitch! and tell those silly nurses / docs to be more compassionate towards kiddos and taking blood pressure....I too sometimes have high readings depending on what is going on around me...and Im no kid, either! well a super big WHINY kid...but thats a WHOLE different story!

congrats Ann....

thanks again for the votes....woke up to find someone has been SUPER busy over the evening....I thank all you voters....I am gaining....and like that I am maybe a spoiler...to the two who think they are WAAAAAAY ahead....I CAN DO IT! after all this is for a Nike race!

hope you came up for some air!

haha ~ I wondered the same thing....but I have been gone...so thought I had been replaced! LOL

hope you feel better....and way to save yourself money. good luck with coming school!

A new visitor who just dropped in.

Howdy Ghoulies. This work week is over in 15 minutes!! YEA!

Yard work is screaming my name, as is the bushel of cucumbers that need to be turned into pickles and the peppers that will become sweet pepper relish to be used for Shrimp and Grits. YUM!!

The car is in the shop and will be there all weekend. sigh. It was to be expected. The old boy has 213,000 miles and needs some attention and $$ spent on him occasionally.

Ann- VERY cool about the boy's freebie! That will be great for you all to be there when he gets to toss it out. Take pics and tell him I said CONGRATULATONS. Can't wait to see the girl's pics.

Melidndy.. I am sorry you are feeling like crap on your vacation. Not fair and not fun! Nice retail thearapy, though.

Amy and Dee. HI!!!!!

Jules, I voted some more. I'll do some this weekend, too.

Off to shower and start the weekend!

givemashot - 2012-07-31 8:48 PM Jules-we spent 5 days on Oahu, then a week on Maui. Kaanapali to be exact. Same area that Melissa spends her Christmas Holidays almost every year.  

I love Maui! so quiet and beautiful!!!!!!! I often say I would like to live there...but then again, I may get stir crazy, too! definitely would get some good wind training! can not believe the wind between the airport and the Kaanapali....nothing but sugar cane to stop it!

Not even too much sugar cane left. There's still quite a bit out by the airport, and in part of the valley, but by the time you anywhere near Wailea, it's just brown/red dirt until the manicured gardens of the resorts.

And you take me too!!!

Sounds like we should go. How's everyone's schedule next week?

Seriously, though, I want to go back. Badly.  

Good morning Ghoulies!

Another busy weekend. I'll tell you all about it shortly, right now I need to get the boy fed, he has his first day of football camp today. I'm working from home because I had someone to take him to camp, but couldn't find anyone to pick him up. Now I'm taking him to camp, too. That's ok, I know he is nervous, so I'll take him.

Morning Ghoulies!

Tell the Boy to have fun at camp for me.
