We had to check Tony into the hospital around 9:00 yesterday morning.  Tony suggested we get McDonald’s on the way, as we were pretty sure he was going to be on a clear liquid diet relatively soon.  I was a good girl and ordered the oatmeal 😀 We were a direct admit, so we got to his room alright.  And then we waited.  And waited. ...

Tony and I had the best early Valentine’s dinner.  We’ve only dined out on V-day once and vowed never to do it again.  I found a cool restaurant, but what they failed to mention was that their Valentine dinner was pre fix, no substitutions and . . . $100 per person, without drink! We almost walked out right then and there but we stayed.  It...

I liked that I changed BSI in that you can use archived recipes to submit each week – I know there are some weeks when all of a sudden I realize its Sunday and I haven’t submitted anything yet.  So imagine my surprise when I went looking to see what I could submit this week – vanilla.  Guess what?  I couldn’t find any!! Luckily I...

I wanted to cut and paste Tony’s comment yesterday in case you didn’t see it: Mr. Biz (Tony) says: February 10, 2011 at 8:43 pm(Edit) I cry during important things. I cry when Rudy sacks the QB, and when Jimmy Stewart comes home and his family knows him. I cried when the stupid packers won the stupid Superbowl (dammit). I cried when my son was...

When I menu planned last week, I kinda skipped over what I was making for breakfast, so I relied on the cafe in our building.  This sandwich was half of what they gave me, I ended up eating 1 1/2 with this bowl of fruit – I guestimated 11 points? Wednesday is my rest day, so no workout.  I ended up eating leftover beef stew,...

I am so done with winter.  When I left the house yesterday morning, it was 4 degrees, with a windchill of -20.  The only saving grace was the snow that fell the night before was like powder and could be brushed off our cars with a broom, and the sun was shining.  About the only thing I like about February is that it is still...

Hannah is one of those people that is never sick.   As a baby I can remember one night when she was about 2 1/2 that she puked 4 times in a night – twice in her crib and then twice when I brought her into my bed.  Only problem was that I only had two sets of sheets for each bed and I think we...

One of my goals this year is to take more group classes.  On Friday I saw that there was a 30 minute spin class on Saturday morning, so I got my ass up at 6:30 a.m. to make the 7:00 WW meeting so it wouldn’t interfere with that spin class. I am not at all upset with a -.6.  I am a complete emotional eater,...

Tony and I met with the surgeon yesterday.  He had the results of the CT scan and I am not going to lie both of us have had knots in our stomachs waiting for this appointment.  The moment of truth to see if the cancer has spread or not. THE CANCER HAS NOT SPREAD! We of course, are beyond thrilled.  We have a surgery date...

It took Tony, Hannah and I over 90 minutes to shovel and snow plow our drive and deck.  It actually felt really good, the sun was shining and I really worked up a sweat!  I entered the activity into eTools and discovered I’d only earned 4 activity points – WTF?! We don’t have a garage, so we had to first dig out the last car...
