I am really sorry to hear how poorly your renters treated your property. Thats terrible. I dont understand why people are like that. I had a friend that rented a house nearby ours, and she had similiar complaints. Not everyone, but a few truly horrible renters. I hope your next tenets are better.

Also sorry to hear you are not feeling well. Hope you feel better soon! Take care. :)
 
Evil rentors!!! So sorry.. I'd come help you guys if I was closer!! :D Of course I like doing weird things like that.. well except when it come sto my own house (paintin that is!) ;)

Glad you enjoyed the ECard! Hope you are feeling 100% better tomorrow! :) Don't sweat the exercise and dieting. You'll be beautiful on your wedding day! :D
 
Hi Paula, hope you're feelin' better. The renter thing really sucks! It makes me mad when people can't take better care of their homes/apartments - especially when it isn't theirs to trash! I admit, I am not a neatnik but there is a difference between "lived in" and "trashed beyond limits". Hope things get better for ya :D Keep up the good work. The scale will be there for weigh in - unfortunately those things never seem to miss an appointment! LOL :p :D
 
Just updating.. our lil Paula was sick yesterday too!! Poor girl! So lets hope we see her post here today. :D She's hoping to be back in the game today so I understand. She's been doing so good!! And I hope somebody is still keeping that scale from you Paula!! :D

Have a great day girl!!
 
I'm back! I'm still not back full force but I'm back. Working on following the diet today... hope to jump back into the workout tomorrow. I think I'm going to put my pedometer back on. Josh thinks I was doing a lot better at losing and less stressed about losing when I was doing that program. So I got a new puppy yesterday! He is the cutest little (about 1 pound) Chihuahua! I'll try to put his pick in my avatar spot. Oh yeah, his name is Galiath! :D
Today I have to go shopping to get him some little shirts and things!
I'll be back later to post AND I've got a lot of catching up to do on the rest of your diaries!
 
What?! You were on page 2! We can't have that! :D

I am so sorry about those renters. I hate it when people have to do things like that. It sometimes makes it harder for us renters who do take care of the place. The landlord we have now said that he has never had renters that take care of his place as good as we do. He has even come in a few times when we were all sick and hadn't vacuumed that day and kind of had some stuff lying around, you know not really filthy but dirtier than we would have liked, but he was even talking about how clean our place always is even then. He is even letting us buy materials and take the cost of it out of the rent to paint and fix the place up. He is great.

Anyways, so sorry you haven't been feeling well. I hope you are better today. What kind of pedometer do you use? I have one that I got from somewhere but it seems to click and make it show as a step even when I bend over or get in and out of the car.

That puppy is so cute! :D
 
Paula, Galiath is ADORABLE!!!! (and great name choice, BTW :D ) I want a small dog soooo bad, but, alas, we are only allowed one dog at a time ( we live on state owned land :mad: ) so our HUMAN-GUSSSSSS one will be a lonely one :eek: hehehe

Hope you are feeling 100% soon. Keep up the good work and have fun shopping for puppy :D
 
hey paula,
just checking in. hope you are feeling better. i'm sure that puppy is keeping you busy. i actually just got another puppy as well. well,the puppy more so came to us. he was on my back porch (fenced in yard) on sunday morning. that little hoodinie (sp?). he had no tags/collar, nothing....so, i've been walking around the blocks looking for someone who lost him (hmm, maybe that is how i moved that plateau?!?!)...anyways, and NOBODY. the poor little thing cant be more than 7 or 8 weeks old. Now FH wants to keep him and i just can't object! :) Hope all is well...

HEy Paula!! :) Hope you're having a great day girl!!:) And back on that wagon!! I want to hear about those steps!
 
Thanks everyone for all the support. I'm feeling a lot better and just joined a challenge so maybe that will give me the push I need.
BizeB and HH, there is definitely a difference between your house being a little messy and being filthy... this place was definitely the latter and then some! I'll just be glad when we're finished with it this weekend.

So I have not done anything for like three weeks (except probably gain weight). I'll be back. Going to see if I can get the scale from Josh.......

YEP! Just weighed myself and I'm back up to 155. :rolleyes: Well, I have no one to blame except myself.

So now I ask myself, "What are you going to do about it?"

Thanks HH, I've been slacking so much that if it weren't for you ladies, I'd probably be on like page 568. LOL!

My pedometer is nothing fancy. It's actually one that my doctor gave me but I saw one just like it at a store for about $10. I have found that some are more reliable than others but as far as it counting steps when you bend over or get in and out of the car, if you think about it, that movement would probably be equal to a step or two so it's okay that it counts it. None of them are going to be completely accurate but if you set a goal to take a certain amount of steps and you accomplish that in a day, even if some of those weren't actually steps, it's close enough... it's still calories burned. :)
I'm actually watching one on Ebay right now that keeps track of calories, steps, and I can't remember what else but you can just plug it into your computer and save all the data there... looks pretty cool. :D

Too cute! Do you know what kind of puppy it is?
 
Oh, I agree. From what the neighbors told us, the people who used to live here were absolutely filthy. They had trash everywhere and would never clean. Come to think of it, is was pretty dirty when we moved in. My husband is a border line neat freak, and he cleans almost all the time. He has a fit when someone lays something down where it doesn't belong. Some people who used to live here apparently let a kid or teenager write on the walls with something that raised the words up from the wall. Even though it was painted over, you can still see it. There are also some glow-in-the dark spots. On our hallway bathroom door, it said "bath room" and it glowed. We are fixing that one. In our bedroom, there are flowers and stars on the wall. In the master bathroom, she wrote "if you sprinkle when you tinkle, then please be a sweety and wipe the seaty." Can you believe that?! My dad ownes a lot of houses and trailers that he rents out and he says we would be surprised with the crap some people do.

Anyways, I'm so sorry you are back up to 155. Let me give you another perspective: I would absolutely love to be 155! :D
 
HH,
People are freakin' weird! Even if it was just rental property, why would you pay to live in a place and then make it look like that? Dumb asses! ;)

Thanks for the different perspective. I'm trying not to feel too bad about it because I knew it would happen and I've slacked for probably about three weeks. I'll get it off... just sucks to have to lose the same weight again.

Man, I'll have to peek into SkinnyKate's diary. We were neck and neck and I bet she's kickin' my butt right now!

Hey Dana,
thanks for stopping in everyday and congrats on gettin' into the size 8's yesterday! You'll be shopping for 6's in no time! :D
 
Thanks Paula!! And you will be down that weight in No time!!! Esp. with this challenge.. because if you wind up on my team, you better not be lettin me down!! :D
