Diary of a Pudgy Peanut

OH its SO good to be home! LOL I like getting away but... I like coming home too.

T, we had a GREAT time! :D No phone, no electricity, no neighbor-man (for most of it :rolleyes: ) and no stress for two whole days!!! I avoided the Smore Monster :D I even avoided the alcohol monster that attacked hubby and a few friends ;) hehehehe

C, that is true :D Although my "goals" have been modified against my will...


I have a new problem with one of my knees that is a direct result of "pushing (my) body further than it wants to go while running" :eek: I have inflammed tissue around my knee that doc is keeping a "careful" eye on - so no high impact activities and I have to wear a neoprene brace while on my feet at work to support the knee. I got a Gazelle :p:D It IS low impact and he didn't say that wasn't allowed and I get to run still.I know its insane but I am as addicted to running as a smoker is to nicotine :eek: I CAN'T give it up - I tried JUST walking and it didn't work b/c I ended up running anyway *sigh* so the gazelle it is!

Ah, I missed y'all whilst I was away:D
 
okay, so today was a day from hell :eek: Had to call 911 for one of the boys due to a severe allergic reaction. He was freaked out by all the EMS and other people. THe whole situation was rough - I think an ambulance ride with a child is one of a mothers most nerve racking situations. They wouldn't let me ride in back with him - I had to be in the front while they did TWO IV sticks (the first one missed) and hear him cry... I wish they dispensed 100 proof whiskey at the ER but, alas, no such luck :eek: After 4 hours in the ER and a good dose of meds hes home, tired, but much better. Now for 24 hours of "obervation" and no more McD's - ever. :rolleyes:

tomorrow is another day :D It HAS to be better! LOL
 
Thanks Mal :) they don't know what started the reaction but they are assuming he has the same onion allergy I do - I can't eat at McD's EVER for that reason. Now it looks as though he may be the same way. It was really scary for him but he did great and he's almost back to normal. He's kinda "dopy" from constant benedryl and (believe it or not) PEPCID!!!! LOL They are knocking him down but not out :rolleyes: Just enough to make him nto totally with it for three whole days.

He'll be right as rain soon, I hope :D
 
Okay, bored, stressed, and ignoring the pizza calling from the kitchen. Sucking down water like no tomorrows are comin'. :rolleyes: I REALLY want to go for a run but its against the "rules" until my gazelle gets here. I went to pick it up today but they "accidentally" shipped it to my house instead of the store so now I have an extra week to wait :rolleyes: Gee thanks guys!! LOL Sometimes I really hate ordering! LOL

okay, rambling done and another glass of water on the horizon! :D
 
oh no. :( I'm glad to hear he's alright though.
this just goes to shoe you that McDonald's ain't good for anything at all. ;)

umm... does McD's use a different onion than everyone else or are u just allergic to all onions Bize? :confused:
 
LOL Hi C, I am allergic to all RAW or slightly raw onions. they have to be cooked to mush or dehydrated in order for me to eat them. At McD's, the last time i said "no onions", they just wiped them off and put the bun back on :mad: I ended up in the hospital. NOT fun. It isnt easy when, no matter where you go, onions are in everything and not always cooked as much as I need them to be :eek: Now there are two of us! LOL Nope. McD's isn't good for anything but salads and parfaits :D
 
congratulations BizeB on your challenge win!!! You guys did great. All that running really paid off. You are like a machine!!!! Doing great, chickiepoo!!!!

:D :) :D :) :D
 
well, yesterday sucked :eek: After dealing with an ambulance for my son, I almost had to call one for a neighbor who passed out in my driveway last night. I never realized how hard it is to try to catch someone before they hit the ground :eek: Dang, he fell like a redwood! He isn't sure why it happened but he seemed fine later (I kept checkin' in with him).

Today is a new day and I am HOPING a better day, but it isn't lookin' good right now. I may have to have my 17yo kitty put down :( I love him like my first kid. Not sure yet if I have to but I have to call the vet since he's been pretty sick.

I need a vacation! Oh well, on with the day :eek:
 
Awwwwwwwww....so sorry about your kitty being sick. I know that when I had to put my dear cat Tabitha asleep, I cried for days. She was like my child. It's been 4 years this month and I still think constantly about her. But in the end I had to convince myself that it is more humane to have ended her pain then to try to keep her alive to suffer more. She was never sick a day in her life then suddenly she got very sick. It turned out that she had Feline Leukemia. Nothing anyone could have done.

On a more happier note now. You were awesome in our team Bize. The Termin-Eaters couldn't have done it without you. Thanks. :D
 
you're just having a rough week - when it rains it surely pours doens't it... but there will be rainbows at the end... hope your week picks up...
 
This hasn't been a good week for you, has it? But you've pulled through without turning to food and it can only get better now! :)
 
Oh no, poor kitty. So sorry to hear this. You really are having a rough week.
Keep your chin up, Peanut Brittle.

Are you doing the new challenge? If so, whoever gets on your team is lucky and whoever doesn't should FEAR YOU!!!!! FEAR THE PEANUT!!!!
 
LOL Thanks you guys. Weedy the Cat did have to be put down due to intestinal cancer. Its been hard but I couldn't see keeping him alive for "possibly" another 3 weeks just to have him suffer. He's happier this way.

Jodee, we ALL did a good job! Anybody who tried their hardest and completed it won in the end, in my book. :D

Mal, I think I found a personal hurricane! Lots more happened yesterday, but too much to get into. Suffice it to say, if it weren't for bad luck I'd have NO luck lately :rolleyes: LOL My rainbow will be on Friday - we take off again to go camping and I dont' have to do anything but sew (we'll have electrical hook ups ).

Beagle Bailey, quite frankly, the only thing I had the last two days was energy drinks :eek: I was just too busy to eat and the caffine kept me full so when I wasn't busy I wasn't really hungry :eek: Back to "normal" now! LOL

Scarlett, rough it has been but over it is! "Peanut Brittle"!?!?! LMAO!!! Thats a new one!! LOL But I like it - sweet, crunchy, has an attitude.. hell yeah, I like it :D hehehee I AM doing the new challenge :D I can't run anymore but as soon as my Gazelle gits here, look out I'm running to the finish :D heheheheh

I am SO glad I went to work today! I laughed off my butt and I needed it :D Although I was told I looked like an accident victim :rolleyes: (gee. Thanks! LOL) I don't know if it was the black and blue covered forearms from catching the falling Giant Redwood disguised as my neighbor as it fell or the brace on my knee, or the redrimmed eyes from lack of sleep! LMAO!! Man, I can't wait to go to bed tonight!!! LOL

Okay, gotta go see what I missed yesterday :D hehehehe
 
Cassieeeeeeeeeee !! Hi !! Wanted to give you a big ol' forum hug !!

I'm going back to my big ol' chicken salad now *burp*

see me soon ;)
 
What an awful week. I hope you have a GREAT camping trip, and come back refreshed and happy. Have fun swimming, and don't forget to look up at the sky and try to spot some meteors. :)
 
LOL Thanks T :D:D I need all the hugs I can get every day :D hehehehe MMMM Chicken salad!!! Good golly, i'm hungry but don't know what I want!!! LOL That salad sounds REALLY good but I dont' have any makin's in the house :rolleyes: *sigh* I'll just have to settle for .... something - not sure what yet :eek: UGH! LOL

TM, I am SO looking forward to camping! :D Its our getaway without getting away - its just up the road, but theres no phone, no neighbor, no - well, nothing but us "roughing" it :D Oh, come on FRIDAY!! WHERE ARE YOU?!?! LOL The Stars will be out in full force I hope! I haven't had time to gaze in a LONG time:D

oh my. that could be a problem. yeesh. you could sue them! ;) You'd have millions. I figure if someone can sue McDonald's for their coffee being too hot and burning their tongue. You can DEFINITELY get millions for the onion bit. :D ;) :D I wouldn't go near their salads actually. Apparently with their chicken and their dressing, their fat content is actually HIGHER than their hamburgers. Scary!!
 
LOL I usually get salads sans meat and use only the Newmans light dressings (1 WW pt per pkt) . The Cobb salad is okay, but I HATE blue cheese so I have to either hurry and suck that part up or douse it with the dressing to drowned the taste :eek: Good thing I don't go often :D:D heheheh

if I sued them it'd be my luck to get COUNTER SUED for slander, liable, whatever they came up with!!! LOL
