>I did not sleep last night. Not a bit. I was reading Winter Rose. I skimmed over parts so I could find out what happened and it still took me all night.
I am going by the park so I can sit for a minute so I won’t be able to improve on my time from the bridge to the light. I was just feeling nauseous so I got some pretzels. I made sure to weigh them and count them. Count every bite & sip, right. I don’t think I will stop at the park because I am very hungry.

Bye Bye

>Oh I almost made it. To the street before the light turned yellow. I probably could have made it across the street but since there was only one car I just waited.
Today we got our raise and with the back pay I ended up with a double paycheck. When I saw that on the computer this morning I was positively giddy. I opened a second checking account to use for selling online. I finally got around to posting Sarah’s dolls, but I need to find out how much they weigh. I decided to list them on e-bay since I couldn’t find a way to sell them on amazon
Bad idea
Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to have oatmeal, salad and popcorn on the same day when I am not used to it, or maybe it was the grapes that gave me diarrhea. I really hate having such a problem in a public bathroom. Someone in the next stall kept flushing the toilet, I kept thinking it won’t help I’m the stinky one. Then I have to wait for everyone to leave. Cause anyone in there would know what was going on!
Ok, so now I have to leave.
I made it this evening. Probably cause I thought it was going to rain down buckets on me. I need to go track my food and read more posts cause I haven’t read all of them. I listed all three dolls and was told I was charging too much for shipping. The dolls are going to be hard to ship. We will see what happens. If they don’t sell on e-bay, I will list them on Craig’s List. I am not done by a long shot.
>I gave hotmail another chance but it still is not sending my e-mails. I don’t know who to complain to, anyway, yesteday Tigger was solitaire texting, I will explain later. I finally weighed myself, 141.8 lbs.
Tigger had my phone yesterday and as is his custom he changed my wall paper and design theme. I changed the design theme back but left the wallpaper. I also found out that he likes to go to the Verizon store and send texts to himself from their phones. That is slightly disturbing to me.
I was texting him today and he sends me a text, I am getting texts from the Samsung Glide. I mentioned it was probably an employee trying to find out who he is. He says no, it is someone just talking to me. Very weird.
Solitaire texting is when you have two phones and you send text messages to one phone from the other one and back again. Takes a special level of boredness to do that.
So I guess from now on I will be sending e-mails from Gmail.
Oh, I almost forgot, Gigi found the necklace I left in her car. She sent it to me along with a letter/note. She said her friend Angela said the necklace I made her was nice enough to buy in a store, I feel like writing back, yeah, I know, I sell them for $50! But that would not be nice. Anyway, it reminded me that I needed to make the necklace for that customer who has been so patient with me. So I made it and will mail it tomorrow. Now I have to go catch some ZZZZZs
When I went on the WW message boards, Melva had left a message about, blocked? I can only imagine she is talking about the blog and the fact that I have changed who can see it to invitation only because of Herman’s narcissism. Anyway, I sent her an e-mail and am waiting her reply. I have to send this now because I am falling asleep & I want to check my G-mail.
>^..^<
I was right, she was wondering about the blocked blog, when I explained what happened she said, Why do people have to be such jerks! I set up a Google account, I will send it to her to see if she wants to use it. I will make sure she knows that I don’t EXPECT her to, it is just there if she wants to use it.
Anyway it was cold and dreary this morning. So much so I couldn’t get out of bed for the 6:18, or maybe it was because I was up until 2:00 looking at the new Alan Banks book I just got from the library? I went to the gym last night, but I am not going tonight. I walked from Time Square to Central Park to go to the Crocs store, I wanted those high heeled crocs. If I get a picture I will post it here. I can probably get one from the website. They are not the color I wanted, but if I still like them when I go to visit my mom, I will see if she can buy me the ones in the color I want.
I have decided that the main difference between this and a diary is that I didn’t have to create titles in my diary, each page just had the date, Dear Carmel, and I took off! Having to come up with titles is not my strong suit. That is what drags me down when I write poems. I write poems fine, then when I have to give it a title, I get all bogged down. However, what is nice, is if I want to change something here, I can just go back and change it, no cross outs!
Anyway, I am staying home, I got a sore throat yesterday and it was still there this morning. It is better now after a cough drop and a cup of coffee and sugar-free black cherry soda. It is still hurting so it is not just dry throat like I was hoping it was.
After I dropped Stitch and Gwen off, I brought them up to Dutchess this morning (I can’t not have my car if I am home, I have a sore throat, I am not an invalid), Stitch calls me, he forgot his trumpet, his suggestion to me (to save gasoline he says), is to bring it up at 7:30 pm, then I can stay for practice, so should I bring my computer, or my knitting? I think it would be more polite to bring my knitting, I will see what M. thinks. Its not like I won’t get computer time today.
Well, I can’t think of much else to say right now. I am going to Weight Watchers. I will be back if anything else happens today.
I went to the library to get my books, they had that cart with free books on the sidewalk. I got two, a Mary Higgins Clark and the 2nd book in the Women’s Murder Club series.
Sick this weekend. Upset tummy. I did go to the gym Saturday and did elliptical, nautilus and the AMT. I also scratched myself on the forehead, right in the middle no less, so now I have this big red mark on my face. I hope my makeup can cover it. I also have an infected ear lobe so I can’t wear my earrings, too painful. My period started this weekend, Saturday and I had no protection with me at the gym. Now my cramps won’t quit and the headache won’t quit. So not a very good or productive weekend for me. Today I didn’t even leave the house. And I went on the WW thread and could barely think of anything to say. I really have to go now, all I want to do is lie down and sleep.
So I hope this goes through. I am using my phone to access Hotmail. I hope v-cast is right so I don’t get charged for this.
Saturday was the SPCA dog parade. The middle school marching band was there so we were there.
Sunday was sad. In January no more separate bookstudy, it is going to be before the ministry school. M said they had to decide if they should raise Bethelites allowances or reduce their expenses. They decided to reduce expenses!
It is raining today and l missed the early train. Tigger has already sent me a text asking for cinnamon. I bought him some at the deli. I sent him a text message saying I bought some cinnamon for you. I got the regular kind for you at the store with the dusty tins.
I was down this morning, don’t know how much I haven’t tracked it yet. I am getting back into my weight training, that is what really makes the difference for me.
138.4
I went to Allsport this evening. D and the boys (the two youngest) went to play racquetball. The texts Tigger sent me seem to indicate they had a good time. He said D was going to get a membership so they would be there more often.
I did some more typing on my other blog. I am describing the craft items and how I made them, where I got the ideas etc.
I am getting ready for bed and am starting to get stomach ache. Probably from what I am eating. I am going to drink a big glass of water and then go to bed. It will be a good thing to go to sleep before midnight.
Described as a feel good word, I kind of like saying it, Nonny Nonny. It’s from As You Like It. I keep saying I am going to read it but so far . . .
Today has not been the greatest of days. I stayed up late to finish Final Account. Another good book in the Alan Banks series. Then I got woken up early by my phone letting me know I got an e-mail from M.L. So I had to get up to check my e-mail to see what she said. Silly woman, spending time in the early a.m. to send me an e-card. Very sweet though.
Fell asleep on the train. Still having tummy problems that lead to a sore bottom. Have to take the Vaseline with me to the bathroom. Not bad though, nothing is bleeding right now.
This morning I had to throw out Butterscotch’s food again, covered in ants. I forgot to get ant traps at Target. I will have to remember to go tonight. I wrote a list in my phone, I need to transfer it to paper.
So, I just got hit with a headache. OW! I gave the blanket to the new mommie to be, well, she is not actually a NEW mommie, this is her third, but it is her first GIRL! She said she loved it, likes how soft it is, had to give me a hug. She also liked the baby feet on the bag and the card.
I took a few minutes to pop over to WW to check my threads. I just pasted ♪♥♫♥ >^..^< on them so tonight I can find them and type something. Laurie Lee sent an e-mail to Pam saying she has to leave the thread. I remember when I did that, then I came back, now the thread is no longer there. I am sure that will not happen to BT and BTF. There are too many people that post to it for it to just fade to black.
There was another thread that I used to post to that is no longer there. I can't believe that at one time I posted to 7-10 threads. One thread now only has like 3 regular posters. Every once in a while someone new posts there, but they don't come back.
My weight was up this morning, but my pants seem to be fitting better. So that is an NSV.
So the boss cracked down. He is mainly worried about how things look for the Division of Water and himself, if Albany cracks down on improper internet use. Bah! He doesn’t know that I can blog without going on my blog, I just have to send an e-mail, like I’m doing now!
However, I have not been able to check the WW thread since this morning. Or my e-mail, I did check Verizon to see how much the enV will be for Gwen. It is $80. I suppose I will have to pay for part of it. Well, not have to, I think I will offer half if she still wants it. She wants it so she can send text messages. Just a couple months ago, she told me she didn’t like text messaging. Well, I guess Tigger changed that for her.
I told M about the phone and how much and she is paying for it. So I ordered it. It will be here Friday, then I need to activate it and register it so the coverage is in effect. I am not ordering that nice of a phone and not insuring it.
Well, haven’t had dinner yet so I will go do that now. I am wearing the French Terry Skirt and it is as long as I thought it would be and comfortable.
