working out for Disney

[Figgy1]

Good luck with those tummy bugs!! Hope you don't come down with it!

Thanks I'm being very careful. I'm not sure if my dh has a bug, a reaction to food he shouldn't have eaten or both. So he's banished far away from me today. On the upside of being stuck inside 12 LS miles (3 with either weights or stretch bands) already done as well as most of today's cooking I made oatmeal with apples and blueberries for my dh. A large pot of assorted veggies with an orange ginger glaze, fruit compote to go in yogurt, dairy free yogurt and when that batch is done the dairy yogurt is going in. I have the turkey bones on the stove for turkey stoup with rice. So far it's a very productive day.

Hi everyone, I've been in and out for the last week or more. Hubby still has kidney stone, so we have been walking at the mall. Since it's still snowing. The good thing....the Doctor told him to drink beer. (he hates the stuff)

 

[betty rose]

He did negotiate a better offer for himself and he chose the NJ location. I am just getting frustrated that I feel like he's always getting his way and his career is always strategizing how to advance his career. I am feeling like the bad guy if I don't keep supporting him.

I moved 8 times over hubby's career, it's mostly happened after I got settled at work, made friends with the neighbors, and then Bam. It's like his business knew I was happy, and they wanted to make me do adjustment's every few years.

I hope your situation gets better in the future. And, you're not the bad guy by any stretch of the imagination.

Thank you for that. My mother and my grandmother think I need to back up my husband lock, stock and barrel at all times.

Congrats and welcome to the garden/ petroleum and chemical state. I hope you like it and hopefully your career can get back on track. May this be your last move for a very long while. Good luck xoxo
ps when do you arrive?

Thanks! I am not sure yet. They are still finalizing all the details. We have to sell this house, etc. I am secretly hoping something else comes through.

Good morning. Seeing it's nippy and a few of my fellow walkers have a tummy bug going around no group walking again So Wednesday weights and some indoor walking. Seeing I'm in for the day I might as well go raw, food wise that is LOL

Oh, no! I hope you can stay well!

I made a really good friend in London and I was really sad that we had to move back here so quickly. I know how you feel.

I'm sure they mean well and all, but he's not their husband either!

I am in with an upper body work out. There was a lot of balance work in it and I kept falling down.

It's warmer here and I was hoping to get out for a walk, but it's been raining and then storming on and off.

My family told me that too. Live the life that will make you happy.

Good evening.

Had the day off today, so I went bowling with my mom, brother, and his friend. It was all-you-can-bowl for two hours, so we got three games in. I HURT now. But it was fun.

Thinking about getting a pass there for the summer. They have one for $30. You can bowl 3 games a day for the summer. Shoe rental included. So after about two days of doing it, it pays for itself. More fun than most of my workouts.

That's an excellent idea! Is your brother also going to get a summer pass? That would be an excellent way to spend some quality time together.

Good morning everybody is all better so seeing I don't have to cook today and the housework is mostly caught up I'm going outside walking with both groups starting when the sun comes up. Today through Saturday is going to be nice and warm so I'm going to try and really enjoy it before the cold comes back Sunday.

That is cool. Thank you for sharing. Sheepy MacSheepface is hilarious. Much better than that boat name. Thank you for sharing the photo. I was beginning to think I am the only one around here with a camera. Guess I'm just the only one who likes to share photos. Now you did too! Thanks again.

I like sharing photos, but hardly anyone here shares photos of themselves, so I have restrained myself. I wish I had gotten one of my son's face when we suggested Sheepy McSheepface. He just looked so scandalized. DD just rolled her eyes in that "You guys are SO uncool" way, but DS was absolutely terrified we were serious and there was no way he wanted his sheep to have that name. Now we keep teasing him...when we tell someone what we did on the weekend, we say we named the sheep Sheepy McSheepface and he goes "NO!!!! His name is Timmy!!" I have a feeling that this is something we'll be able to tease him about for a long time.

I'm looking forward to chicken fajitas tonight. Yum.

Hello-

I took most of last week off. I was just feeling "blah." My husband and I have been having "intense discussions" about this move for his job. I really don't want to move for him again. Long story short--about 10 years ago, I had an opportunity to go to grad school in another city and he refused to move. He said he wanted to stay and focus on his career. There was no school locally that had this program. So I reconfigured my goals and did something entirely different--something I am not passionate about. Meanwhile, his career kept ascending. I have already moved twice for him. This is getting ridiculous. I'm just venting, sorry.

Anyway, I got back into my work outs last night. I did a lower body work. I am hoping to get out for a walk later and get an upper body work out in.

I'm so sorry....what a tough situation. I can completely understand not wanting to move. If you DID move, would he be able to stay put for a while, or would he be in line to transfer again soon?

Can you go back to school in NJ? Maybe do something for yourself there?

Yup. And possibly my mom as well. We're also thinking about talking my dad into it. So we could all go.
