Rocket Surgery 4 Dummies-Griff's Musings

Hey Griff,

Sorry I havn't checked in. You are such a great father running around and getting everything straightened out for your girls.

I hope you de-stress soon.

Last summer we got a cat... we didn't know we couldn't have one because plenty of other people did (apparently against the rules) and we got caught. So as my busiest and hardest semester in school was starting I had a month to search for an apartment and move... It was stress beyond belief!

Thanks for checking on me Cinderelly:)


The good news is I got a lease on a new apartment yesterday! Then today I was able to get the girls re-enrolled at their school! I ended up taking today off of work since I had so much to do, I've been needing a day off anyway.I told you that I would Deal with It!

I've missed being here.

Thanks ladies.

***kicks ticker to see if it's still working***

Well looky there, I am down to 219.8 this morning!!! :jump: :jump: :jump:

I think a break from the gym may have been good for me, I've been hitting it pretty hard for a while now. My eating has been good so I was still able to lose a couple of pounds.

I'll try to get caught up on here this weekend.
OH and IT'S FRIDAY PEOPLE!!!
 
WTG Griff.... your ticker just keeps tick tick tick ticking down to the end!!!!

0o0000 and YAY for FRIDAYS
 
I hope everyone is having a great weekend!

I made it to the gym yesterday and rode 20 miles on the bike. Felt good to get back to the gym!

Today I did the following at the gym:

13.5 miles on the bike (35 minutes - cardio/warm-up)

lat pull-downs 3x12
seated rows 3x12
tricep extensions 3x12
ab crunch machine 3x15
hammer curls 3x12

5 miles on the bike (about 15 minutes - cool down)

I took a half day of vacation yesterday and took the girls swimming all afternoon. Last night we went back-to-school shopping and got their new backpacks and all their school supplies.

Not much else planned for today - the way a Saturday should be!

Thanks for stopping by.

Griff

I will say that this forum is truely an anomally in the universe. First, women openly talk about how much they weigh! And second, the guys actually know how much they weigh! I like it.:)

Holy crap!! The guys can see how much I weigh?? Damn ticker--I thought only girls could see it! haha

Griff, I think you are a great dad, and I wish you all the best trying to get things worked out in the divorce area. Must be rough.

You are an exercising machine--I think you're turning into an elliptical.

What is this stressfull job you have? Stressful jobs suck--I've had a few in my time, so you have my sympathies.

Keep up the great work!
 
Hey griff I have seen the support you have been giving in other diaries so I thought I would drop in and give you some. When do you move? Congratulations on 219, 41.2 pounds lost is terrific.

Bikinibound, thanks for stopping by! Thanks for your kind words and support. Being a dad is fun, dealing with the ex is a real pain in the butt! My stressful job is computer drafting and project management for a steel fabricator - where if you're not behind schedule you don't have enough work to do.

Rosered, thank you for dropping in and for your supprt! We will be moving some time this month, the new apartment is not ready yet.


Well, my girls have been asking if we could make my famous banana pudding. We made one together for thanksgiving last year and it was a lot of fun. They like to help so they have a blast. So today I took my oldest to the grocery store and we got all of the ingredients. I used fat-free, sugar-free, or reduced fat wherever I could. The recipe that I have is from my grandmother and it is the absolute best. I didn't want to make a whole one because then it would be around the house for a while. We made 2 half sized ones and gave one to a neighbor. We had fun and they have both had a small portion tonight. I had a bite and you can't really tell that all the fat and sugar that is supposed to be in it is even missing. Not that it's health food or anything but at least it's as healthy as I can make it.

What a great day!

Griff

That pudding sounds yummy!

You're such a great dad... always doing fun things to keep your girls busy and happy:) They're lucky to have you as a daddy!
 
Good afternoon everybody! I hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday. This is my scheduled rest day and even though I had to miss a couple of days at the gym this week I'm still taking a rest day today.

I really think that the short break from the gym actually did a lot of good. I weighed 218.4 this morning!!! I'm hoping for a short relationship with the 2-teens!!!

Oh, I almost forgot - I had some of that banana pudding for desert after lunch - it was soooo good! I'm glad we only made a half sized one!

Thanks for stopping by.

Glad you had a great weekend! You Kick ass on everything all week!:jump:
 
Wow, Griff. I am not sure you need to be in Kimberly's harem, as you seem to be developing one of your own over here!!!

However, a bunch of ladies saying how sexy you are has to be a good motivator!
