I babysat the grandkids last weekend. The next day both of them had wicked colds. They have given it to me, thanks guys. I don't have it that bad, just enough to make me stuffy and lazy. I dragged thru spinning class, luckily it was a sub teacher. The other one would have pushed me. I only rode 18 miles yesterday, on Saturdays I usually do 22 or 23. Then I went to do the machines and dragged thru them. I had a hard time finishing. I went to an outlet mall and finally came home to take a nap. I feel better today, but still stuffy.
We are going to a Super Bowl party today. Hope I can behave myself. It is a poker tournament followed by watching the game. Hopefully I can win some money today!

Arghhh up, up and up! Hopefully by the end of the month it is down again or some loss.

Hello. My daughter has a 2-hour delay for the start of school today. Not sure we will send her in if we can't get out of the driveway. We'll see. Hope everyone has a great day!

Happy Tuesday!! I hope everyone had a great weekend and made it through the Super Bowl without eating the kitchen bowl !! We had crab cakes for a treat dinner so I guess I probably ate a little more than needed. But I am back at it for the week.

I wish I could stay on track on the weekends like I do during the week. We had a funeral this weekend- service on Saturday & burial at the National Cemetery on Monday. Both of those things involved food- comfort food. Then there was the Super Bowl gathering we went to. I brought Cobb salad dip & an Asian Chicken salad. Neither is as healthy as they may sound!! I did talk myself out of some chips today & went with air popped popcorn so that was a small win.

I got the lab results today from my blood work. The bad cholesterol was lower and the good cholesterol was higher. The one I am most happy about is my triglycerides went from 288 down to 143. My doctor was very happy. The bad news is she said keep doing what you are doing. I was hoping to relax a bit on the diet. Oh well. I think I will anyway. I had a cupcake at my quilting group today. Yummy!
Crab cakes sounds so good mj.
I went to a quilt store that is clearing out all their fabric and only keeping yarn. All their fabric is $3.50 a yard. I think I bought 52 yards. Now that was fun!

Annaquilts your box is full.

Wow Pam what a good deal at the LQS. I am trying not to buy fabric but would have walked out of there with some too.I had a snow day off school yesterday.The kids were extra wound up today. I guess I don't understand how things work but I am working with a different student lately. He is nuts, can't even sit in a seat. He is in second grade he just wanders around the classroom and pretty much does what he wants. He upsets the whole room. They can't put him on an IEP because he is absent too much. Not sure why. My autistic kid is trying a different placement for now. Not sure how long mom will go for it. He screams just as much there as he did in the old classroom. There are so many troubled kids these days.
I went to spinning tonight and rode 18 miles in 50 minutes. I feel so much better when I go. Tomorrow is deep water boot camp class.

Pam, congrats on the great results - your triglycerides are awesome! What an exciting purchase you made.

meanmom, my trick to not buying fabric like Pam found is simply to stay out of the store!

I think I am back on track. I started out keeping track of calories in vs calories out, but I got thrown off by my colonoscopy last month. Only took me two weeks to get back on the wagon, but I did get on.

Hey everyone. I'm wondering if any of you have any suggestions for exercise? I need to find something I like and will stick with. Thanks so much!
