Ry's gone again. Well gonna make a lemon pie today!! YAY!! I've been craving it the last few days, so it's gonna be well worth it, as long as it turns out.. hahaha. And maybe some cookies too.. lol.
Just going to finish the laundry today and do the dishes. That's it.
Also going to go for a walk uptown with Hannah b/c we have to go to the grocery store to get our ingredients for the pie. Then come home, bake it and then relax all day. Thinking about watching a movie this afternoon, but not too sure what one I want to watch. Will have to check out the site later when Hanny goes for her nap. Anyways I should go here and get ready!

I am very angry at myself.
I have done nothing but eat this weekend. I have stuffed myself full. Beyond full.
I am now determined to pu a stop to this stupidity on my part.
I am also embarrassed that I come to you my friends and support here and tell you week after week that I will start to be good.
As of 8 am this morning. I will no longer be cheating like I have been.
I am resigned to a weight gain this week, but that is going to start changing.
I have ate so much I feel crappy. I remember feeling this way in the past, and I don't want to feel this way any more.
I hope you can all forgive me for all my failed promises and continue to support me in my quest to do better.
Thank you.........

I read on friday that going as hard as possible on an exercise bike for only 3 minute significantly reduces one's risk for diabetes by making the cells uptake insulin more efficiently. I would imagine that this applies to all cardiovascular activity.
The bike seems the most exciting, since it is the piece of equipment that I am least likely to use.
Ill see if I can find the article to post. Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Well already cleaned the livingroom, Hannah's room, my room, started laundry, put all the clean dishes away, cleaned all the TV screens, made the beds, cleaned out the fridge, now I'm taking a break while the sinks are being bleached. YAY!! I think I might clean my bathroom still. I need to clean up the laundry room, wash the floors, but I'm gonna wait til the laundry is finished in there.
Then for the rest of the day I'm going to relax. YAY!! And I'm not even stressed about the cleaning today b/c it's not really much.
Last night Ry and I went to a wedding reception, it was alright. The music kinda sucked... but the food spread was amazing!! hahaha. I think I had like 2-3 plate fulls... cheese, pickles, veggie pizza, turkey, carrots.. yup.. the yummy food!! I didn't really care for the veggie pizza, the crust was too thick and very dry, but whatever, I only had 2 pcs, then none after that. I couldn't stay away from the cheese, carrots, and turkey... hahaha. I haven't had turkey since this summer... it was delicious.
Anyways I need to go get ready for the day... may drag my kiddo in the tub with me.

Well they came and fixed my internet. The guy redid lots of stuff, including how the cable was outside. Put a new spliter on my cable and after I told him what the guy told me on the phone yesterday, they gave us a month free of their services.. such as cable and internet!! YAY!! We're gonna save $117 next month!! WAHOO!!! I need to make a shopping list so we can go grocery shopping on Friday. We're having some company come over, so I want some snacks, and such for when they come.
But I should go here, we need to go for a walk down to the store to return our movies.

So the ppl were suppose to be here to fix my internet today and never showed up. I'm so mad. I waited around all day. I guess dispatch never gave it out to them. Not impressed at all. Ugh.. I got a headache.

My internet is really starting to piss me off. Everytime I go online it decides to go down. So I close the window, and it turns back on... wtf???
So my oldest sister took Bailey back to the emergency last night. He has pnemonia now. She has it plastered all over facebook again. God, when is she going to learn or ppl see the real her. It's all for attention!!! This is her status today:
Just when I thought Bailey was getting over the flu. I had to take him to emergency tonight and found out that he has pnemonia. Hopefully now he will start to get better.
Then she writes someone this response: I am hoping, he first was sick with strep throat on Friday and then on Sunday he got the flu and now yesterday the pnemonia. Its gotta stop somewhere. He's getting tired of being sick.
The sad thing is, is that she can't even stay home with him. She is too busy driving around doing who knows what.
On the other hand.... Ry is gone for the night... wahoo!!! A whole night to myself. Hannah got 2 movies today. A christmas one and the new ice age movie (which she loves). I need to find someone that is able to burn those movies for me. She would be in heaven if she had all the ice-age movies. Anyways I better post this before my net goes down again... argh!!
Oh yeah and washing all the baby clothes today.

Okay.. well my lab results came back positive for H1N1, but not to worry b/c I already did the treatment for it. So no worries.... baby is kicking it's little butt off non-stop, so that's good.
Hannah is on a medication for her cough. But just at night to help her sleep. So she only has to take it for a few days, and then it should be okay. She was cleared to having H1N1... all her vitals are good and she's healthy as can be minus the stupid cough.
Okay back to my dishes!! lol

Hannah's ssssssssooooooooo excited. We're going to the library on Friday to start the calendars for xmas. She gets to paint and get all messy. It should be fun. At least it'll pass the morning for us. lol.
Back to the clinic right away :o( Hopefully it's nothing serious with Hanny.

[03 Nov 2009|10:50am] |
Hannah took her needle like a champ. I got them to put it in her leg b/c she's never had a needle in her arm. She has to go back in 21 days for her second dose.
Now we're just relaxing and have to wait til 1:10 to go back down for her dr's appointment.
I just tried calling my oldest sister to inform her to make an appointment to get the kids needles done today, but of course she's not home. My oldest nephew is suppose to be super sick, but she can't stay home with him. He needs his rest. They don't eat properly or take care of themselves, so it's going to be harder on him to get better. See what I mean, that she doesn't care about her kids, and thrives off their sicknesses. Disgusting hey??
Anyways I got some dishes to do.

Oh what a night!!! First Hannah napped til probably 7:30pm. Then she went back to bed at around 11ish. She started coughig really bad at 4:30am. Ry woke me up and we gave her some cough medicine. She ended up coughing and kinda throwing it up. Finally at around 6am she fell asleep. Now we have to go to the clinic and get her H1N1 needle at 10:20am. I'm gonna see if I can get her to see a dr. about her cough b/c it's keeping her up at night... she's complaining about a sore throat (due to coughing), so I'm gonna see if there is some cough stuff that they can give us to help her sleep through the night.
Other than that, I have a huge ass headache, and just want to crawl back into bed, but I need to go get ready. Ugh...

Ugh. I had a nasty cold, which was followed by something else that was like a cold on steroids, so I've been kind of out of commission for the last few weeks. No good. It's so annoying because I was on such a roll with the workouts too.
Anyhow, as usual, I'm getting back on the wagon because I'm finally feeling up to working out again. For whatever it's worth, I've been doing some stretches, and I've been doing like five or ten minute ab workouts, but I've gotta say, I'm really looking forward to picking up with the workouts again.
I have tomorrow off (woo hooo!), so I think I'm gonna run tomorrow while Jilly naps. Sounds like a plan to me!
How's everyone doing?

I think my sister gets a high off my nephews being sick. She just loves the attention that she gets. Here's what her 2 status's have been on facebook. I mean when I was sick, I did not announce it to the whole world that the Dr.'s said that I had H1N1.
J: Wishing Bailey would get better. We were told on Friday that he has Strep Throat, yesterday he was feeling fine and he didn't have a sore throat. Today all he has done is pretty much slept. He can't stay warm, his ribs hurt , he has a bad cough and know is running a fever. So he will not go to school this week.
Then today:
J: Hoping to get some sleep tonight. Last night was a rough night. Hopefully Bailey will be able to sleep tonight, we both didn't get to sleep until 4am. I was up at 7:30 to get Kaleb ready for school, Hunter stayed home today, he was not feeling well, but is better now.
She's like going around bragging that Bailey's sick, and what's wrong with him... what the dr's said. But yet he hasn't had any lab work to test him for H1N1. She's just stupid... she likes when her kids are sick so she can get attention... yeah I'm annoyed with her.

| TRIUMPH - Fight The Good Fight |
[02 Nov 2009|03:15pm] |
I ran across this song on my Zune.. part of Supernatural soundtrack/playlist. :P Anyways... it's a really good song, good enough to make me look it up.
YouTube Video
Triumph - Fight The Good Fight
The days grow shorter and the nights are getting long
Feels like we're running out of time
Every day it seems much harder tellin' right from wrong
You got to read between the lines
Don't get discouraged, don't be afraid, we can
Make it through another day
Make it worth the price we pay
The Good Book says it's better to give than to receive
I do my best to do my part
Nothin' in my pockets I got nothin' up my sleeve
I keep my magic in my heart
Keep up your spirit, keep up your faith, baby
I am counting on you
You know what you've got to do
CHORUS:
Fight the good fight every moment
Every minute every day
Fight the good fight every moment
It's your only way
All your life you've been waiting for your chance
Where you'll fit into the plan
But you're the master of your own destiny
So give and take the best that you can
You think a little more money will buy your soul some rest
You'd better think of something else instead
You're so afraid of being honest with yourself
You'd better take a look inside your head
Nothing is easy, nothing good is free
But I can tell you where to start
Take a look inside your heart
There's an answer in your heart
CHORUS

From a friend over on LJ.......
Dr. Vinay Goyal is an MBBS,DRM,DNB (Intensivist and Thyroid specialist) having clinical experience of over 20 years. He has worked in institutions like Hinduja Hospital , Bombay Hospital , Saifee Hospital , Tata Memorial etc.. Presently, he is heading the Nuclear Medicine Department and Thyroid clinic at Riddhivinayak Cardiac and Critical Centre, Malad, a suburb of M'umbai, India (W).
The following message given by him, I feel makes a lot of sense and is important for all to know:
The only portals of germ entry are the nostrils and mouth/throat. In a global epidemic of this nature, it's almost impossible to avoid coming into contact with H1N1 in spite of all precautions. Contact with H1N1 is not so much of a problem as proliferation is.
While you are still healthy and not showing any symptoms of H1N1 infection, in order to prevent proliferation, aggravation of symptoms and development of secondary infections, some very simple steps, not fully highlighted in most official communications, can be practiced (instead of focusing on how to stock N95 or Tamiflu):
1. Frequent hand-washing (well highlighted in all official communications).
2. "Hands-off-the-face" approach. Resist all temptations to touch any part of face (unless you want to eat, bathe or slap)..
3. *Gargle twice a day with warm salt water (use Listerine if you don't trust salt). *H1N1 takes 2-3 days after initial infection in the throat/nasal cavity to proliferate and show characteristic symptoms. Simple gargling prevents proliferation. In a way, gargling with salt water has the same effect on a healthy individual that Tamiflu has on an infected one. Don't underestimate this simple, inexpensive and powerful preventative method.
4. Similar to 3 above, *clean your nostrils at least once every day with warm salt water. *Not everybody may be good at Jala Neti or Sutra Neti (very good Yoga asanas to clean nasal cavities), but *blowing the nose hard once a day and swabbing both nostrils with cotton buds dipped in warm salt water is very effective in bringing down viral population.*
5. *Boost your natural immunity with foods that are rich in Vitamin C (Amla and other citrus fruits). *If you have to supplement with Vitamin C tablets, make sure that it also has Zinc to boost absorption.
6. *Drink as much of warm liquids (tea, coffee, etc) as you can. *Drinking warm liquids has the same effect as gargling, but in the reverse direction. They wash off proliferating viruses from the throat into the stomach where they cannot survive, proliferate or do any harm.

| Halloween costumes |
[30 Oct 2009|02:24pm] |
A black man and his wife were going to a Halloween party in a couple of days. So the husband tells his wife to go to the store and get costumes for them to wear. When he comes home that night he goes into the bedroom and there laid out on the bed is a Superman costume.
The husband yells at his wife, "What are you doing? Have you ever heard of a black Superman? Take this back and get me something else I can wear."
The next day the wife, not too happy, returns the costume and gets a replacement.
The Husband comes home from work goes to the bedroom, and there, laid out on the bed, is a Batman costume. He again yells at his wife, "What are you doing? Have you ever heard of a black Batman? Take this back and get me something I can wear to the costume party!"
The next morning his irate wife goes shopping.
When the husband comes home again from work, there laid out on the bed are three items: one is a set of three white buttons, the second is a thick white belt, and the third item is 2 x 4. The husband yells at the wife, "What the hell are these for?"
The wife yells back, "take your clothes off. You can put the three white buttons on the front of you and go as a domino. If you don't like that one, you can put the white belt on and go as an Oreo. And if you don't like THAT one, you can stick the 2 x 4 up your ass and go as a fudgesicle!"
