Mindless Chatter - T.G.I.F.

Today has been up and down:

I went to the dentist this morning, BUT I only owed $8, BUT I have to get a crown in two weeks!

I got paid at 9am, BUT I had to pay 4 student loans, BUT the school is writing us a check for $4600 b/c our aid covered DH's tuition.

My taxes are done BUT we owe the city $185.

DH wants to take me out for dinner BUT I'm trying to get serious about losing my last 10 lbs (I dropped 15 lbs already and want 10 more).
 

Wowsa, Lies, you are on a mission!!!  Sending healthy vibes to you.

Jano - I wish we could pay for some hot massage therapist guy to come over and massage your feet/ankles!  Poor thing.  Glad everybody is doing well.  (Hey, a "shy" girl could come in handy in about 16 years! hahah)

This stupid "Scott Baio is 46 and pregnant" show is ridiculously revolting.  I detest this guy - guess that's why they think he makes good TV.  Aack - how did I get myself watching crappy reality tv like this!?!?!  *angrily changes the channel*

Yes, yes I am!  I'm going to Florida in April and I don't want to just look "ok", I want to be in my bikini again!!!  I actually don't weight more than 5lbs over what I did in high school, but then I was competing in gymnastics - flat stomach with nice abs, tight butt, lean legs, toned arms, the works.  I can't workout for several hours a day, but I can keep the calories down.

Wow!! that's great!! I kinda hit a brick wall with losing weight, my eating habits haven't been exactly great lately which is why but good for you!! 

Yeah I've been stuck at the same weight for a week and a half now.  I lost a lot very quickly because I made so many changes all at once and totally quit drinking soda.  I've gotten rid of the weight from poor eating habits over the past few years, so now it's hard to keep going below that, but I'm trying!  If I get to my goal after 10 more lbs I'll be at the same weight I was when I was 14, lol.

Well good luck!!!

My problem is I can workout for hours but...my eating habits suck still!  So that working out an doing squat right now. Although hearing what you lost is motivating. *going to go grab an apple instead of the chocolate candy bar* haha.
 

Yippee I've got all ten new windows in now!  DH is plum tuckered out and i have some more cleaning to do but not much really.  Just need to do some painting.  I am super psyched about these windows its already quieter (its real quiet anyway), and I don't feel my drafts anymore YEA!!!

Bugsy is happy too he hates being shut out of work areas - the horror of it all!

Wow - congratulations on the weight loss and I think it's common to hit plateaus now and then. Don't get discouraged but also don't deprive yourself of a bit of celebration now and then. I think it can actually help to keep you motivated and not feel like it's such a drag. Go out to dinner and just try to eat something relatively low-cal.

Liesje: good job on the weight loss the last 10lbs will be the hardest! keep tough and do cardio like crrrrrrrrrrrazy

If you are craving a nice steak dinner you can come over tonight at 6:30pm :o) I'm leaving work now... off to cook! yay! ttyl

I was gonna drop off my other laptop to get fixed today, but I couldn't remember exactly where the place was, and I had to go, so I'm still using my little one.

Did I mention that I hate this kid's mother whose house I was at today. She wants all sorts of things done. Great, they are all  wonderful. However, she doesn't let those things be done. Instead, she comes up with all sorts of other different things that aren't quite the original idea, and in the form she has them, are relatively useless. I'll do those too, because I don't have anything else to do, but don't complain to me about the problems with your silly ideas. My job is to carry out the plans, not to make them. Unfortunately as well, all the things she wants cannot take place in only one room of the house. I haven't told her yet, or even implied it at all, that I will likely not be here come summer. She's on the list of people I'd prefer not to tell until I'm half way there already.
