Good Morning! It is icky here. Again. But at least it isn't freezing cold or snowing. Just no sun. Again.

I had a good workout yesterday evening with Des. We did "Walk away the pounds". It has 5 different workouts to work different parts of the body.We figured we could do them Monday through Friday, weekends off or our choice. I was pooped after warm up, but made it all the way through the arm one. We scared Thunder, he left the room! After we were done, hubby pulled out the 2 DVDs we had bought last year at this time that we had never opened! We argued over where they were, but gave up finding them. I said, good we can do those on weekends. Destiny promptly said, but I thought we had weekends off!

I was so sore when we got done!

Hope everyone has a great hump day!

Good morning! I need to go back a few pages to catch up with your chatty fingers! Wanted to say hi first though. Your DVD sounds like something I would like. Kudos to you and Des for working out!

I skipped the workout yesterday

but I am headed for the Wii as soon as I catch up here. My dogs don't get scared, they get in my way! If I am running they think they have to chase me which is sort of funny considering I am running in place. If I am on the floor they are licking my face or the cats are walking on the balance board and the thing is saying "Your weight is changing"

Charmed that is awesome that you are quiting smoking!

Algo I know what you mean about your treadmill! I used mine as a clothes hanger too for a few years before I sold it. Then my FIL gave me his stair master. I used it faithfully for a year, now it sits in our all ready cramped living room and works great as a place for the cats to hide things under! Congrats on the 2 pounds!

NY I am sorry your DD is still so sick. I hope she gets better soon. There is nothing worse than your baby being sick.

Jazzy I am so glad the shoes finally showed up! I was starting to worry. What is a roto zip? I am very "craft challenged". The egg decorations were a stretch for me. The few people I gave them to at Christmas said they really liked them though. I always have an image in my head and it almost never turns out like that. I used to own several hundred dollars of stamping stuff, for making your own cards and such. Finally sold it at a garage sale for $15! Kind of wish I hadn't now, but I used it about 5 times in 10 years!

Hope all is well on your side of the world.

Hubby left for town so I am headed to the Wii! See ya all back here soon

Thunder was all ready and in the bedroom laying on his bed when we started. Then we shut the door, he got a little nervous. Then we started kicking, he was by the door in a flash to get out! I opened the door a few minutes later and he was standing down the hall looking at the shut door like we were losing our minds! He also didn't like that Destiny put her hair in a pony tail. She had to talk to him before he realized who she was!

The video is a simple one (if you are in shape at all). It is basically walking in place with stuff thrown in like kicks, going sideways, using your arms, etc. I had it years ago on VHS and loved it. One workout is a mile and there are 5. I like it because it doesn't put me in positions my body doesn't like to go in! When it gets warmer, we actually have a really nice walking trail here in town. It goes all the way around the schools and park, so we will try to get out and do that too. It has been a very popular place and well used. We can also walk up home too, but it is gravel roads, so the mud puts a halt to that!

Good Morning!! Well smoked my last cigarette this morning. I don't think I will have a hard time of it. I don't smoke all day here at Dad's unless I am outside mowing or something. I just have to get it in my mind I am done!!! I have been teasing you guys about your diets but I really need to do the same thing. Reckon I will be unsuitable for human contact if I quit smoking and go on a diet too???

DH is going to Wisconsin next week for work. When he comes back next Friday, we are going to the casino and maybe spend the night. This is part of my Christmas present. The other part is dinner and a movie which we are doing Sat. And also, next Friday is his birthday! My oldest DD said they would come out and stay at the farm while we were gone so I don't have to worry about locking the chickens up or letting the dog out. I haven't been to the casino in years. I'm excited!

Oh, the casino sounds like so much fun! Strangely, I was thinking last night that hubby and I should go for an evening soon. He isn't much into something like that, so I would probably go with my sister more than likely. I do go often at all. Last June when we went to Memphis, we stopped in the boothill and that is where Mom won her $1,500 and me $16! I don't know when it was before then. Which one do you go to? I hope you have a wonderful time!!

I have wondered the same thing about the quit smoking/weight loss at the same time, but they kinda go hand in hand. It seems to me the more I try to stay fit the less I want to smoke anyway, so I hope that will work for me. I am so proud of you!

I think we will go to Harrah's. The room rates are the best out of the 3. I won $1000. once. I would sure like to win again!!!

Just remember your friends!

I can't even remember the last one I went to in the city. We go to one in St. Joe, it is very small, but big places make me a little nervous anyway. I have never won a big amount, I am just thrilled to come out with a little more than I went in with. However, I don't start with much to begin with! I haven't stayed overnight at any yet either.

Your weekend trip sounds like soo much fun!

We love to stay in a hotel in the "city" once every few months. We go have a nice dinner, usually the Macaroni Grill because they have the best Margaritas! Then stop at the hotel lounge for a couple more or just buy a bottle of wine and go to our room. We always have breakfast at the same little "hole in the wall" cafe too! We ate there the morning after our wedding, so it is sort of a tradition. I hope you both have a wonderful time and win some moola!!

Have I told you about my daughter's ghost? She has seen a blonde haired lady in a trench coat in her bedroom for the past 3 nights. The first night it scared her to death. The 2nd night she was kinda ready for it and told her to go away and leave her alone. Last night I told her to take some pictures which she did before she went to bed. It was pitch black and she used a flash. See all the orbs in this one?

She has never seen this lady before. Her and her DH have been hearing "bumps" in the night for lack of better explanation. She doesn't seem to be mean. This is the mom of my granddaughter that can see "dead people." I told her maybe Alexa got it from her!! Here's another picture that has a big streak of light....

What do ya think????

PS....That is my sweet grandson, Triston, passed out on the bed!
