JJjay (and TP!)..you guys are tooo funny! Still chucklin here

Thanks for the kick Jjjay. I got it loud and clear! lol (I can always count on you for that motivation! lol)

I just found out that the gym I am going to is going to be open 24 hours.....I'm a night owl and with my wifes late work schedule, I think I might be able to hit the gym after she gets off work. Should be less crowded too.

Had a high cal day yesterday....had a cultural bbq to go to and they had a pig roast and all the fixins and I caved. But at least I didnt go up for seconds! :)


I'll post more tonite but its 4 am here and I can't sleep. Nor can I think straight (funny headache). So am going to try and read a book and hopefully crash before the sunrises.

Have a great day guys!!!

I bet that working out at the gym late at night when most people are off to sleep is nice. You'll have your pick of equipment and it'll be more peaceful there, too. :)

I'm sorry about your headache and I hope you were able to fall asleep after a bit of reading and get some rest. :) I hope your head is feeling much better today. :)
 
Thanks Jana! Your sooo nice :)

Headache is still tingling and I slept like crap again. I'm sure my youngest sleeping with me has something to do with it. He is all over the bed...if he's not on my side, he's upsidedown with his foot in my face. But I couldn't turn him away last night...he was in his glory when I said he could jump in bed, and fell fast asleep. Oh well....the joys of parenthood!

Anyways, i got up this morning, no milk in the fridge for my oatmeal so i quickly showered and went to the store.
There I found bushels of red peppers had arrived! (This is like Christmas to an Italian!) So I bought a couple of bushels and now am in the midst of canning them. (I use them for making dried sausage and salami Calabrese style)
So thats my day here....(besides that its 30C and feels like 39C with humidex!) If I didnt have to work tonite I'ld be at the camp swimming in the lake and baskin in the sun. Oh well, can't have every nice day off!

Have a great day kids and catch ya all later from work.
 
But did you remember the milk?

I did that once - ran into town quick to pick up something I needed that I found I was out of after I had already started cooking the meal. When I got there I found a REALLY good sale on something else and completely forgot the item that I went there to get in the first place. Of course hubby NEVER lets me forget that! :toetap05:

OK...glad to hear that the slowmo kick did the business!! Hope your headache is getting better Flumesy - I've had a couple of bad uns lately and its horrible especially as there are so many other things in life you'd rather be doing than not being able to sleep but have a headache!

What DA HECK is a cultural BBQ?!?! Is it where you get to eat lots but you have to debate anthropological theories within a post-modern paradigm?!?! Or perhaps you BBQ petri dishes of bacterial culture?!? heh the mind boggles!

I really like late night or early morning gym sessions (as long as they are safe for women! Not really a consideration for big hairy italian men though!) - nice and peaceful especially if you work on a slightly different schedule to everyone else. I hope to hear reports soon that you have been LOTS!

Hows the neck nerve coming along? Back to normal?

The headache is gone....thanks for askin'. Just not gettin enough sleep. And workin nights doesnt help. Lucky if I get 4 hours when I get home in the morning. But enough whining....lol. I should get a good nite tomorrow nite.

Cultural bbq smart ass! lol Too funny! But yes....lots of food and wine and friendly chit chat :)

Big hairy Italian men lolol!!! Remind me to depiliate before I post another pic! lol

The neck is almost healed. Best I can describe it right now is its a cautious feeling....just don't want to jar it cause it feels like it'll 'pinch the nerve again'. I'm going to wait till Friday and then go for a run after work.

Thanks for askin Jjjay. Hope you are feelin better yourself.
 
Wish I had a 24/7 gym around here--I'm a night owl too so would be perfect! Glad the headache has gone my lovely :D Have a sooooopertroooooper day, Mr Flumes!

I was wondering this myself. How is it different from a regular BBQ?

All the attendees were from the same part of Italy or second generation of same. There was alot of food that was prepared like it was back then (polenta, roast pig, musette, furlano cheese, furlano salami, wine, even some homemade grappa) and there were countless stories and conversations with people speaking their native language (Furlan).

Hope that helps...lol.
 
Wow. I started reading your post and I couldn't stop lol! So bubbly and energetic! It really nice to see how various people fit in weightloss into their lifestyles. Keep it up sounds like you're having a ball ^^ Some of you're recipes are quite interesting and as for oatmeal... I swear I've got some downstairs somewhere...

Thanks for poppin in Rouge!!!

Lookin forward to checkin up on your progress! Hope you got a diary goin!!!!

Take care!
 
Ahhhh that makes so much more sense Flumes!! It just seemed a really odd word to put with BBQ!!! Sounds like a real experience though! I wish I had the chance to go to one! Then again I would be an interloper!!!

Don't forget...today is running day!! Get those feet moving BOY!
 
I had to look up interloper! lolol But you would be more than welcomed bud!
So long as you liked roast pig and vino! lol

As for my anticipated run tonight, didnt I leave my brand new shoes at the cottage??!!! Grrrrr. Going to go out in my old shoes....see how far I can make it in 20 minutes seeing I havent moved much in a month and a half.

Foodwise the past few days has been questionable.

I havent been eating as healthy as I should have but my portions were moderated. I've been 202 on the scale at most weighings so I'm kinda happy. Its always nice to see you lose weight, but staying at the same weaight without much effort is pretty satisfying also.

I'll chime in again later. At work right now and got to earn my keep.

Have a great day!!!
 
All that ethnic food sounds divine! And the culture stuff sounds even better. Fascinating!

So how did the run go?
