I am working tomorrow trying to get everyone seen before our vacation...we leave thursday for Indiana....we will arrive just in time for the best beer festival!!!!!Jeff bought us VIP passes so early samples and no wait to get in and special glasses...he is so excited....our friend can drive us home..he doesn't drink that much.
We planned our trip around it. this will be our 3rd year.

It is very hot and humid here, made bocca burgers for dinner in a wrap with a spicy sweet salsa, mangos, and habenaro peppers! so good!!!!
went to the gym tonight for a quick work out, 10 minutes on the stair master and 2 minutes on the endless rope and 10 minutes on the shoulder machine then about 20 minutes cardio on a variety of machines...getting braver went up stairs!!!( there are 3 floors!)about one hour total.
...they close early on fridays 8pm instead of 10 pm.

Hubby is at the worst gig in his life.
He was doing it just for fun but has decided that he will never do it again.
He got lost in the middle of no where and called me to help get him back, I used google maps, he ended up being an hour late but beat the guy there...the gig is in a barn!!!!! with out air conditioning...6 hours of his time for $50.....It is a zydeco band....He will probably play 3 chords the whole night...he won't get home until 1am...I will/should be asleep by then....I hope he finds his way back ok....

There is a new twigh light book out a novella about one of the new vampires her name is bree.
I am enjoying that.
we are still watching our LOST episodes...only watching one episode a night to try and stretch it out...we are on season 5....
love it!

I made it 4 days with out coffee, so last night I tried to donate blood but was disqualified due to having been to honduras this past christmas on the cruise...sigh
Usually they don't allow me to donate because caffiene with lower your hemaglobin and sometimes my blood pressure would not be high enough...I would not give up my coffee for 3 days so have not donated in a very long time. So since I gave up coffee I thought it would be the perfect time to donate...wrong.
I can try again in january.
I tried..so I still got to take home a pint of ice cream!!!!!
mint chocalate chip...my favorite!
I jsut might have to have some now that I think about it!
cheers!

just talked with hubby, he had a great time and 2 other guys asked if he wanted to be in their bands!!!!!! what a hoot!

I wonder what you are up to.....??????

[Mari]

Waves,
You are mysterious. I hope that you are having fun.


Donna,
Has he ever tried making his own frames?


Bizi,
I'm sorry if this is dumb question but can't run around the building a little and then try again to get the blood pressure up. I had a friend why used to do that. Of course, I really don't know anything and am have taken the night meds.


=-=
I'm trying to organize my life and making only incremental progress.

i am not going to go to the mall - don't have the right kind of tickets.

oh well.

Bizi, i am glad Jeff had fun after all! i did not know that about caffeine/donating blood. i don't think they check that here. those twilight books sound fun. i wish english books weren't so expensive here.

Mari, incremental is good. organizing is hard. i need to do some of that. i tend to let papers pile up, but the stacks hidden under the desk are getting kinda voluminous... maybe since nothing else is 'happening' this weekend i can tackle some filing. i too will only be able to make incremental progress.

Donna, i apologize for my ignorance... i know what Lego is... but i don't know what 4-h is (regarding the projects that Derrick does). Do you feel like explaining? thanks!

Saw Pam posted again last night... maybe she will check in... Pammie how ya doin?????

Hope you are all having a good day today. or rather, have a good day. as i see it is only 8 am east coast time right now. it's 2pm my time.

i wonder if i can get myself to go out for a walk. it is so hot... but i feel like i should get some activity somehow...

forgot to bold this... so where's the Pamster???

change of plans for me - wait, that would mean i had plans to start with ...

anyway i'm cooking the veggies for dinner. will be cold salad but cooked. or partly.

steaming/stewing some bell pepper strips - after they are cooked and cooled will toss with a little fresh olive oil and some salt. leftovers are good as sandwich topping.

then potato/cucumber/radicchio salad. the cukes and radicchio are all chopped up.

the potato is nuked, peeled and in the process of cooling while the peppers are cooking which is why i'm "on break" for a few mins. gonna do some tomatoes on the side too... yeah yeah i could be doing that... sigh.

mom has some left over roast turkey breast which we will have cold with these veg sides.

wave, sounds like a well balanced meal!
I just drank a slim fast am up earkier than normal...man 5 days with out coffee....
sigh
bizi longing for a cup of coffee.

[waves]

Bizi that is so hard the caffeine thing... can you drink decaf for flavor or is feeling tired more the problem?

i have to decrease again to - i won't go cold turkey - have enough headaches with the migraine bit, without adding a caffeine withdrawal headache...

i was down to a range of none to a max of 1/3 or a 1/2 cup a day max. now am up to 3 cups of full caf again - trying for just 2 today... started having more migraines, using up to 200mg caffeine/day to treat them, but then, needed to be up and alert with not enough sleep, so no downtime and had to use even more... but i could not afford to appear wilted... for all the good it did (nothing came of it). i apologize if that sounds confusing. i don't feel comfortable expanding on the circumstances.

just mean to say i am frustrated from trying stuff, and getting nothing out of it but a relapse in caffeine addiction. sigh.

i made greenbeans too they are done - going to get them.

[bizi]

sorry about your caffeine not having the desired effect.
Work went fine but my back is very tired??? maybe from all of this working out stuff????
I had hot cup decaf today with french vanilla creamer...and it was good! I like the feel of drinking coffee and the taste too.
And then later I had some iced decaf coffee and that was good too.
We are going out to applebees for dinner and then to the art walk, it is hot and humid here!!!!!So....I am bringing an adult beverage....mango vodka and diet cranberry juice.
