ok i admit it , i'm a slacker

normally i don't go this long without posting unless i'm without internet-- or something is wrong. well, rest assured, nothing is wrong. i have just been busy-- and recovering. i have been sore as hell since cleaning out the garage. i just cannot imagine what i might feel like had i had to do that alone. thank God for angie . i have everyday pain anyhow-- but i swear-- this has been extra bad-- and i am so NOT looking forward to packing and moving this house-- which is a three bedroom-- but the size - with the furniture-- of a four bedroom , due to my office. ugh. the thought alone scares me.

anyhow-- moving on to bigger and better things ;))
guess who won the 'biggest loser contest' at work? you guessed huh? pretty easy since i don't have a job eh? yep, soulman wON!!! wo hoo ! but i betchya can't guess how much he lost? the contest lasted about three months--- he lost --- dah dah dah---
fifty one pounds !!!!!!! as in 51 !!!!! in three months. that is just insane. we are so proud of him. he is still shootin for another thirty pounds on his own. i'm sure he can do it. that would put him not much over what he was when we met.. but ya gotta give a guy some lee-way for age, and the ole marriage excuse right? regardless, i am amazed at the effort he put into this whole thing. he feels so much better, and looks really good. once i get a new pic of him, i shall put before and afters up-- you too will be amazed.

as for me--- i'm still totin the extra 20 pounds from nowhere. can't lose an ounce. i'll weigh one day and think i lost 5 pounds-- 2 or 3 days later i weigh again.. and voila-- it's baaaack. maybe forever. dammit.

about the house hunting, i think it's over-- we are putting in an offer on one today after hubby gets home from work. it's a nice house. pix will come when i get a chance. the price is right-- we like it-- i have my doubts about the stairs.. but i can deal with them for a while i'm sure.

well, i think that's about all the updating i can think of for now-- i got thangs to do before i get my child.
i'll be back.
question is-- will you be here?
or has facebook killed blogland?
anyhow-- have happy fridays...

I can understand how that thing called life gets in the way of blogging. Happens more and more to me. I ain't "daid" yet so I'll be a'vistin' when I can.

SOUL said...

yes you are first dd-- and no one seems to have cared much about that in a while so woo hoooo- you win the prize of the day-- question is-- wth is it?

i hope you and z sister o' mine are havin fun and you are feelin better and better every day.

hubby pretty much only cut out carbs and sugar-- if you knew him, you'd know it damn near killed him.. but he didn't cheat once. the last few days however, he got all his cravings out of the way, and is ready to get back the ole straight and narrow again.
it's a lot harder than it sounds.. but even his boss told him the other day, damn you look good .
so kudos to the ole man.

as for me.. everybody says that.. good..or you needed a few pounds, or "you look healthy.
ugh. well, you know gran gran... and her voice still reigns in my head-- and it makes me feel and look fat to me.

have fun girlie

SOUL said...

brenda-- life does get in the way--- of just about everything--doesn't it? maybe that's why we all get to die, so we can relax. ya reckon?
i'll be over in a while, and try to catch up on your goings on.
i hope you got to throw some fun in that life of yours somewhere.
laterz-

oh- btw-- have you built you a 'crick" yet? i wanna come fish in your yard. :))

Congrats on the house & with hubby's weight loss! I can't wait to see the pictures... of both.

I did FB for a while, but it was too time consuming. I've been blog lazy & I broke my camera... so sad.

I'm still toting around an extra 15lbs. It sucks, doesn't it. I can't get my a@@ in gear & lose it:(

Raine said...

Good for hubby, I'm jealous but too lazy to do the work. I'm still here, Lol, I dont use facebook.

Jamie said...

Yea for you and the new house! That is SO exciting. And yea to soulman, too --- I know how hard it is. :)

I don't much like facebook, I haven't been on the computer at all lately...don't know why, just busy and tired and OLD, does that count?

Happy Saturday!
xo

SOUL said...

EE--- sucks about the camera-- big time-- especially since that's the main meat of your blog-- you gonna get a new one??

how can you even think that you don't get of your a@@? you are constantly on the run.
are you still doin karate? still runnin kids to soccer? baseball? softball? fostering? when the heck do you have time to stop?

gotta be age or meds-- dontchya think?

besides-- blogging has to burn at least a few calories right? :))

happy saturday
get a camera! :))

SOUL said...

SOUL said...

and NO-- there is NO excuse for you-- one of just about everybody's favorite blogger-- second only to me-- hahahahahahaha ( oh geesh i crack me up)-- anyhow-- NO excuse for YOU to not get on your computer-- much less this not bloggin crap. we want to know how you are and what you're up to. give it up lady and tell us. please.
and btw-- i don't like facebook either. it's just kinda there...but -- it has helped me find a few peeps i thought i'd lost forever-- so it is good for somethin. i guess.

gosh it just makes me sick sometimes to know some of the stuff she did and said to you both, your bot very pretty women, and being bone skinny is to skinny...for that i am sorry, no women be it your mother or anyone else has that right to destroy a life as a child and have all that bad in there mind even after your an adult.. we'll YOU DO look much better.....and maybe being so skinny could of been part of your health problem....
take care

I have to disagree with dd, I say a person feels as good as they feel with or without the weight, some women are 400lbs, blobs of fat, and feel like a sex goddess where a woman half that size is really in much better health, because she's not hauling around all that extra weight, back problems, etc. etc. and gaining weight due to medication is a concern also, so if a person feels good heavy or thin is up to them, not in how a person sees them.
