Thanks for all the ideas Val/Margaret! ;)

~~~~~

I was still up late again... :ack2:

I won't give up though!

Hopefully something will end up knocking me back in "normal mode."

~*Happy Tuesday You Guys!*~

Hi ya Star. :waving:

Everything has been fine bc of school...

This weekend will be the true test to see if they got the point..lol

We love and own all of the Guitar Hero games/different styles of Guitars.

It's so funny bc when they first came out, I picked it up to play as like a "Goofy Joke" kinda thing.. Like: Look at silly me..

I ended up bein' really freakin' good at it! :smilielol5:

Most songs are on medium..A few I can play on hard..

One day I will play on expert! :D

It's a great "family" thing as well..

Once the band gear comes out we will buy it! :smilielol5:

Has the guitar - drums - mic - etc!
 
That's funny, my sons LOVE guitar hero, it's a blast watching all their friends come over and play it, some are quite good too. One of my boys plays the guitar and he is pretty good at it, they were both in the band all through junior high, and then quit for high school, they I guess thought they were to cool for band. LOL LOL Kids, they just are nuts sometimes! It's pretty neat, because we recently inherited a piano from my mom, and the other son is now on that self teaching and he's actual a natural, weird how things happen sometimes isn't it?? Who would have THUNK IT? It just goes to show, you need to let your children try different things, you just never know what they will be good at, be it sports, which they both were really good at baseball, or music, or art. Watching kids grow is awesome!! They are my inspiration. Well I hope your day is a good one!!! Enjoy it! Good Luck on your next weigh in!

Hi Sugar Lips! :waving:

Sorry to hear you were up late again last night. :ack2: Have you tried sex?? That seems to work for most people. :D I agree with Margaret about the massage. Have hubby give you a nice, relaxing massage. Clears the mind and soothes. I love massages. :hurray:

Are you the one I have to thank for all the cool new smilies?
 
It is a blast!

So funny how you can get addicted to stuff like this... lol

Cory has never been into sports.. :)

He is the type of kid that does great in choir and things like debate club..

My lil Mr. Brain. :conehead:

:smilielol5:

OMG, I'm diggin' all these smilies!

Have A Great Day Sneeker-Poo!

Guilty... :D

LOL...Can't have boom-boom when tom is here and hubby is at work...lol

That goes for massages to..

I have just got to do what I can to try and control all this stress..

That is what the deal is, I just know it. :ack2:

Like today.. :willy_nilly: Super*Target? Uhhh..NOPE... Do I feel like my mind is about to explode? :willy_nilly: Uhhh...YEP..

I'm not even gonna plan it now...It'll happen once I get a chance to make out list and just freakin' go.

So much has been going on here the past few days..

Hubby sick/off work when he shouldn't of been {that's not bad of course, so don't get me wrong..It just messes w/crazy routine that has ta go perfect}

:bigear: I've been stuck on the phone w/dad listening to his hour long vent re: my mother.

Just crap like that..

Let's not forgot RHC... :flame:

lol

I'm just a crazy freak! :troll:
 
Hey girl, I'll be trying that lemon chicken soon enough! Maybe for tomorrow. Keep the recipes coming, though I'm not really a fan of tuna so I'll probably pass on that one :D. But thanks for reminding me about the cooking spray, amazing how it prevents the eggs, and even the turkey burgers, from sticking to the pan. TTYL luv :)
 
Hey, I just put a post in my diary responding to you about your son and mine. I need to go home and give my little babes some MOMMA HUGS! damn those first break ups!!! This was his first SOLID girlfriend, they were inseparably. UGGGGG!! not looking forward to this evening.
 
Hi Stacy

I hope that your Tuesday is going well. I am sorry that you are having such difficulty sleeping - it is no fun.

We have been there and done that!!!

Stress is bound to be having an impact. If you feel up to it - try and get that walk in. I think that it does much more than just burn calories and therefore help you lose weight - it gives an escape and an opportunity to think without interruption.

Also - remember what I said about not always answering the phone. I set aside a time each day for dealing with such things (and tell people that this is the most convenient time of the day for me to talk) - and then we rarely take calls outside that timeslot from certain numbers.

When we have a spell of not sleeping - I like burning oils. I have a little plug in oil burner and you just put a few drops of different oils on it and plug it in for overnight. It really smells nice and helps you relax.

I had a yoga class today - and I swear that in the meditation section most people seem on the verge of falling asleep. In fact the words reminded you about four or five times not to fall asleep. You could get a DVD or tape on yoga meditation and basically listen and learn. I am sure that meditating before bedtime would help.

Have a goal reaching and tranquil day followed by a restful night's sleep.

Take care
Love
Margaret
 
Once again, I'm agreeing with Margaret. :iagree: Let the answering machine pick it up. If it's an emergency, you'll soon find out. If you don't have an answering machine, give him 5 min. to rant. Then make an excuse for why you have to end the call. As busy as you are, I'm sure you can think of a good one without lying. ;) I don't care if he's your dad--that doesn't give him the right to stress you out like that. After a few times of that happening, I'm sure both parents will get the hit that you're no longer gonna listen to their rants.

How about one of those nice relaxing CDs that has nature sounds? I find those very relaxing. Also, deep breathing works for me. Just spend a couple minutes lying in bed in the dark slowly breathing in and slowly exhaling. It's amazing how calming that is. Just concentrate on your breathing--nothing else.
 
:seeya: Hi Stacy!

I suspected that your parents were adding to the stress of teenage kids, neglectful neighbors, bratty neighborhood children, and nosy ass people at the grocery store! I wish you the best--hey! I saw "Alternative Medicine" magazine at New Leaf Market and thought of you because it said "7 steps to End Insomnia." I bought the fucking thing, even though it was $4.95! :ack2: I'm gonna read it and see if I can get anything out of it (also, I saw "Curb Sugar Cravings" and "Foods for Post-Workout" that seemed cool, although I bet all that info is in my Personal Training textbook, the buy was sort of a whim). Have a great morning if you don't read this tonight!

OH and I actually had a goal reachin day today! :hurray:
:waving:
 
Hello My TX sunshine girl!!

I know--the forum being down was giving me the shits, too..lol. I need my daily WLF fix like a crack whore needs hers...:eek:

Well, your food was good, even if I still think your cals are too low..lol. Don't worry about the exercise. You can make up for it another day. :)

Have fun grocery shopping tomorrow. I've gotta do that, too. But I don't mind it--I kinda like it. Not sure why. :)

So I missed out on TLD! :ack2::ack2: So here's some belated lezzie love for ya: :beating::beating:
 
Hi Stacy

I had trouble getting the forum loaded here too. It really is annoying when that happens. Especially since my husband often annexes the computer when he gets in from work.

I am sorry that you were having a lousy day.

With no exercise and those calories you will have lost weight regarding the day. It may have been a lousy day for other reasons - but from a weight loss project perspective that is a good day diary entry.

I hate grocery shopping. It is a chore. I make my shopping list another way. I basically keep a basic stock level of most things that I need. As I use a tin of something or notice that I am running short of something I add it to the list. I build up the list as the week goes on - and often pop into Tescos mid week when out walking to top up perishables (e.g. bread, bananas etc) that we may be running short of. I start the new list as I get back from the last shopping trip.

I hope that Thursday gets a lot better for you.

Take care
Love
Margaret
 
Afternoon Sunshine!!
I see you do the slim fast also, I like them too. I know a lot of people out there think they are gross, but frankly, the Chocolate Royal is scrumptious when you freeze it for awhile. I like the snack bars too, but only the ones that are chewy, I'm not for the hard crisp ones. LOL LOL

Sorry you had a down day yesterday, hopefully your evening ended better for ya!! I'm going to be out until Monday so I wanted to make sure I stopped by to send my love. Try and have a good rest of your week. I'm still waiting to find out if that tea and warm bath worked for you????

Lots of love!
