What’s for lunch today?  A Orange, a apples and kiwi fruit.  Yum.  Still going strong on my exercise and diet quest.  I haven’t been back on the scale, but I know I have lost more, I can just tell.  My waist and abs are starting to come back.  yay.

 

This and That Friday, May 19, 2006

So many things to be excited about this morning! 

1) Got on the scale this morning and I am 5 pounds lighter than what I weighed 3 weeks ago. WOOHOO! This exercise and eating thing is paying off already, better keep it up! 

2) Homeowner’s insurance and our home warranty for the house are all up for renewal. I was freaking out because we haven’t saved for any of it, so I called them up and they both put me on payment plans, so that is a HUGE relief. 

3) Dave and I are both covered by Life Ins. now in case something terrible should happen. Well, I guess that’s it. Seemed like more in my head. haha. 

This weekend we will get out of the house. Memphis is famous for it’s Memphis in May Festival, read about it here http://www.memphisinmay.org/. So the BBQ cook-off is for this weekend, should be a lot of fun. Lots of food and such. Starting to get hot here again, so sorta dreading going out in the heat, but I will go and be a trooper, might as well get used to it, because this summer will be different than last summer, going to try and get out more. The Will & Grace Finale was last night. “Say Goodnight Gracie”. I wasn’t too pleased with it tho. Having W&G be separated for long periods of time and not having them in each others lives during the raising of their kids, etc, just kind of threw me off. I know in the end they were together, but I just didn’t like it. They did age well tho. haha and it was cute that their kids married eachother. 

And what is up with Britney Spears? This chic is in the news every day now on putting her baby in danger and she has another one on the way! WTF! I’ll take one off your hands Brit. Thank God the 70’s porn star bodyguard was there to protect her. 

That’s it for today, have a wonderful weekend, I know I will. =)

 

Productive Week Tuesday, May 16, 2006

Filed under: Rants & Raves — jen @ 4:37 pm

Well, my “if only” post from last week has held up.  I have been actively working out and eating right.  I am on my second week and to be honest, I kinda feel a difference already.  Tummy is flat for the most part, abs are burning daily, which is a good thing.  My abs use to be my best asset, so I make sure I have a photo of them in the work out room for a little incentive.  Dave is getting up an hour earlier than usual in the mornings, so getting up on my own will be tough, but I will try.  I am doing my best to not lay down too tight of a schedule, if I do, I am doomed to fail.  So I am going with the flow and if I miss a morning, I’ll just make it up later.  We are making plans to go see Dave’s Mom out at their lake, so I gotta get my ass in gear, literally.

So what else……last weekend I was very productive glassblowing weekend, had a great time and I thought I had done some of my best work, but the comments I received on the heart I made (see below) weren’t very good.  Every woman I asked, they got it right away, every man I asked looked at it all weird, and said it looks like a tooth and another said men’s genatalia.  WTF?  The guy who said it is actually a good friend and regretted that he hurt my feelings over the comment.  I mainly wondered more though, if he thought that the heart looked like male genatalia, then he must have a weird you know what, because I just don’t see it.  haha

I mainly focused on my shapes.  All the spacer beads came out great, and when all lined up together, each color is the same size.  I guess what throws the heart off is the way I had the bottom of it flare out.  Grappy called it a “styled heart”, so I am good with that.  I will try better next time.  Oh and I can’t believe Shaka actually said he liked it.  Must have been in a good mood yesterday.  haha   Happy Tuesday!  Jenny out.

 

If Only Tuesday, May 9, 2006

If only every morning could be like this morning.  Woke up with Dave, about 5:15, exercised, filled bead orders, ate breakfast and showered, all before work.  I feel great!  Five days of this though, and I am sure to burn out.  We’ll see.New DVD releases I am picking up today, Nanny McPhee and Rumor Has It.  

Is it LOST Wednesday yet?  Nope, Happy Tuesday!

 

Another Monday….blah Monday, May 8, 2006

Another joyous day at work. ugh. I work with all men and they are always grumpy. I hate it. No hello in the morning, no smile. Need to pop some happy pills in the water or coffee. Oh yeah, we don’t have coffee or water here. Doh! Had a productive weekend as usual. Learned how to make these cool drop pendants. Love them! and a few other beads and spacers.
