Cute, but fat.

Nothing to do with diet or exercise. 

I love listening to Howard Stern!  His show makes me laugh and I love to laugh.  Doesn’t laughing burn calories! hee hee

keeps the junk food away. NOT!

I made it my mission to blog everyday to help me stay on track.  I was blogging daily for awhile then got side lined by life, so I rededicated myself to visiting 3fatchicks and blogging.

Can’t say it’s helped me stay on track, but I’m more cognizant of my habits.

October 1st and all’s well.  The  leaves are changing rapidly where I live. Such beautiful colors abound. In fact, some of the leaf colors are so yummy looking I want to eat them!  Is there anything I won’t eat? hee hee

I was in Target the other day and naturally not only do they have Halloween set up, but in the way back corner they had a couple aisles already filled with Christmas stuff. NO NO NO!  Christmas in New Hampshire means months of cold, snow and ice. Why in the world did I leave sunny California? 

Yesterday was the first time I journaled in about two weeks.  I am making it a priority to write everyday and to visit the 3fatchicks site. It helps me to remain focused.

I can’t believe tomorrow is the last day of September.  OMG!  Wasn’t it just the first day of summer?  Wow…the old adage, time flies sure is pertinent when you get to be my age.  Ancient.

The goals I have this week are: Continue to exercise at least, the very least twice a day, continue drinking oodles and oodles of water, visit 3fatchicks and journal daily, try not to eat after 6pm, write down all that I consume through the day and most importantly stay in the moment. 

It’s the TOM this week so I am a bit off just from the natural occurrences of that delightful event.  Won’t use it as an excuse to eat everything in site.  Well, try not to! hee hee

Here’s to a happy, healthy week.

Today, Sunday September 14th I have feelings of guilt!  Not stemming from overeating, but coming from not exercising today. I pride myself on doing some type of exercise daily, even if it’s just a short walk.  Usually during the school day I exercise multiple times.  But, today the weather and errands and life got in the way so naturally feel guilty.  Instead of looking at all the exercise I do, I am focusing on today’s non exercise day.

It would be so nice to not have guilt feelings about exercise and food.

Something I must work on! 

all covered with cheese….now doesn’t that sound delish!

Haven’t blogged for a few days as nothing really has been going on that I felt was interesting enough to write about. I could go on and on about my looming TOM, but I’ve done that countless times before.

School begins next Wednesday…oh yes!

I bought some mums yesterday and that will be the extent of my autumn decorating. hee hee. Oh, I might buy a pumpkin or two and maybe a few ears of Indian Corn.  Naturally, the squirrels and chipmunks seem to delight in that.

I guess the old addage holds true: No news, is good news!  So with that…

ta ta for now…

Gee whiz…

Got up with the chickens (not really, but I do love that figure of speech) and headed straight to the hospital for yet another round of injections for the rabid bat that was in my home.  Will this ever end?

Headed to another doctor appt, then took my son to the YMCA for open swim.  He has severe special needs, but loves to play in the water. I had a ball playing along side him.

My cat Muffy had two teeth extracted yesterday so I am on high alert watching for infections etc. I am also administering medicine twice a day!  I feel like this is a bad episode of ER! hee hee

I am counting down the days until the first day of school. Exactly:  14 days.  Can you say YIPPEE!  I can then resume my daily exercising.  I never thought I would ever say this, but I miss walking! 

Wonder what Thursday has in store for me! 

doing what exactly??

Taking out the trash?  Changing the cat litter box???

As I watched the Summer Olympics last night I quickly felt very sheepish.  The winner of the woman’s marathon last night ran non stop 26 miles!  Heck, I think I am ‘all that’ when I walk a measly 3 miles. Sheesh!  Makes me want to up my exercise routine.  Once my son returns to school in September I will add on to my 3 miles. Never, getting anywhere near 26, but I will try a 5 mile walk!

Funny how her shoes never came untied……hmmmm…..

I just don’t get weight loss commercials.  Who are they targeting anyway? How come none of the diet aide commercials show women who are very heavy???  No one in those commercials resemble me at all.  And, the commercials for exercising do-dads. Oh my….  I never see a significantly overweight woman demonstrate how to use the exercise equipment.  Seems a woman who is already very thin and most likely never had a weight issue is the woman who will sell the product.

Truth in advertising, there isn’t any.

Oh what a beautiful day!  Two days of sunny weather!  Yeah….

Boy, it sure lifts my spirits when the sun pops out. 

Haven’t posted a blog in a day or two as not much has been happening aside from the continued rabies vaccinations!  Two more to go!  I also found that the vaccination is only good for a year. Rats!  Or should I say Bats! 

Only if life could be that simple! hee hee

Another gloomy day in NH!  I believe this is one of the most wettest summers in years.  It’s hard to stay motivated when it’s gray outside.

I did The Biggest Loser Cardio Max workout level 1 last night. Will try to do it at least once a day or at the very least two more times before weigh in. It will be a nice addition to my exercise routine.  I am not able to walk for the next three weeks as my son is home.  School begins September 3rd and then I can begin walking again!

Ta ta for now….
