I'M BORED. . .

. . . but even if I wasn't bored, this would have made me laugh out loud. However, it's late and I am bored so I giggled quite a bit!

Without further ado, I give you. . .

MORMON SYNCHRONIZED SWIMMING


FYI: My weekly weigh-ins will be back starting Sunday. I took a brief (okay, 8 week) hiatus from the weight loss efforts. I would like to say that it was for a good reason, but I just got lazy. However, I did manage to maintain my weight; yay for me. That is the first time I have stopped actively trying to lose weight without immediately gaining! I jumped back on course last week with my weight at 145.8 and will weigh in Sunday to see where I am.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMACITA!


I LOVE YOU!!!
**this post is a day late, but i did talk to her on her actual birthday ;)

A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS**

**in no particular order, except #1, 'cause he is my #1 ;)


~MY HUBBY~
He is my best friend. He brings such love and joy into my life. He makes me laugh, sometimes until I cry! I love him so much and am so happy that we are married.


~BATH TIME~
Yesterday I had a really tough day at work and every muscle in my body was tired and aching. My sweet Pauly cooked amazing chicken quesadillas for dinner and then I climbed into the tub to soak and read. It was heaven! Sometimes I stay in the tub so long that I fall asleep.


~HONEY MUSTARD~

I love to dip chicken in it.Yummy!


~MY BEST FRIEND BRENNIE~
Alas, she is 1600 miles away in Utah, but when we talk on the phone it is like we have never been apart. We laugh and joke and then I cry when I hang up because I miss her.


~NEW MAKEUP~

I love feeling beautiful. 'Nuff said.


~CAITY AND HER BLOG ~
She is so witty, clever and very entertaining (see
this and this for two of my fave posts) and she blogs EVERY day. She is my blogging hero.
We miss you Caity and Bob!

That's it for now.

Hurricane Ike.......HITS KENTUCKY!!!!!

On Sunday, September 14th the remnants of Hurricane Ike blew across the mid-west and right through good 'ol Owensboro, Kentucky! We had sustained 50-90 mph winds for 2+ hours and the pix below show the aftermath. We were without power for 25 hours and we have family members who were without power for 3-4 days. The power still hasn't been restored to all parts of the city.

All the pix below were taken within 10 minutes of our apartment!

WEIGH IN

144.8!
YAY!!

WEIGH IN . . . and other news

Here it is, drum roll please:

145.6

Sweet chickens, I did it, I'm down some more! Lovin' my weight loss right now!

On another note: I am totally ticked off right now. I started my c210k training and hurt (or aggravated a latent injury) my hip AGAIN. So not happy about this. I am having a hard time walking let alone running. I'm scrapping the running thing for now. Until I have some insurance and can afford to go to a physical therapist, I am not risking doing permanent damage. This makes me very sad because I desperately want to be a "runner." The thing is, people, I hurt it while only jogging for a half mile. So not cool.

More news: We finally have a tv and are now getting cable. We have been without it for the last year! This is very exciting.
