Re: SA Wednesday

  • haha.. We posted at the same time.. You were a little quicker than I was though.
  • I had a horrible headache last night and was asleep before 8pm.  I woke up and its mostly gone and I am hoping it keeps going away because I joined a gym last night.  As I have been increasing my time in the gym I just cant handle staring at myself for an hour.  I joined A smaller gym up the road from work in Coppell for $10 a month so I cant beat the price.

    I joined one within a mile of our house. It's a locally owned one. We did little 10 day pass and week passes for the last month. I'm signing up today! Good luck!

    Are you watching your water and food intake? Most of the time when DH or I get headaches we can track it to our diets.

  • I'm a complete airhead sometimes.   I mailed the wrong calculator to the wrong person last night.

    Luckily, I called first thing this AM and found a kind postal worker man who put it aside for me so I can go pick it up!  I'm SO relieved.

    Has the post office redeemed itself for me?  I will find out in a couple of hours!

    90% of my headaches I can relate with water intake which usually happens if I havent consumed more than 60 oz before lunch.  Yesterday I was right on track with that and guzzled another 24oz as soon as the headache came on and kept drinking throughout the day and it just got worse.  I dont know what caused it yesterday and those are the ones I hate because I cant pinpoint the cause.

    That was super nice of them.

  • Brianna, I caught up on TN last night when we got home from our gig, and got really excited for you. YAY for babies on the board. :)

    This morning's workout was the hardest one yet, and I did it. I never stopped. Our trainer high-fived me and said she'd never seen me push like that. I want to die now, but in a good way.

  • Chelsea, that's awesome!  Way to go, you!

    I am hungry.  I normally keep breakfast bars in my drawer at work, and I'm out... I could walk over to Target and get some, but I'm afraid everyone will think I'm just really late if I leave right now... so I'm going to wait until about 9.30 and go.

  • I think DH and I are officially lame. He planned a trip to San Antonio for our anniversary and it was going to be $700. I told him I would much rather spend that money on new tile for our kitchen, bathroom, entry and fireplace. He gave me the silliest grin and said "let's do it, I can cancel everything!" and then did. We will be spending our anniversary weekend at home, installing tile together and doing a nice dinner on Saturday night. :)

    Tiffany - I think we are going to frame our mirrors next weekend too, so I'll let you know how that goes.

    BL - I usually get auras before I get migraines. I tried something new last time when I saw the auras and the headache never materalized. I got frap from Starbucks and took two Advil. I drank the frap and laid down for an hour. It was the first time in years of getting migraines that I actually beat one. I was really happy.

    I don't think that's lame! Who says you have to go somewhere? New tile would make me super happy. :)

    Even when we WERE in San Antonio last week, Mack and I were kind of lame. On the second day, we slept 'til 11, walked down the river to get BBQ for lunch, came back and took a nap, then woke up and watched TV/movies and ordered pizza. It was kiiind of the best mini-vacation ever, and we're totally going to repeat it at home. :)

  • Leslie - Just the thought of new tile gives me a big freakin' headache....but I can't WAIT to hear about the mirror framing.   I haven't mentioned it to DH yet.... I think it is safe to say that we need some "project down time" after my self induced tile fiasco.  

  • Hello ladies!

    I figured two weeks is a long enough to come to the nesties board. It's a little weird having everything be brown. I must admit :)

    In other news, i'm with you Angie - I'm starving :( I never was one to eat breakfast, but it seems the week I did while on the honeymoon has sparked a new habit.

    Wait, why is your current project a fiasco?  What's going on?  I missed this!

    It was nothing really, besides my inability to make a decision.   Then, when I finally settled on one... our installer recommended we not use it.  So, it began again.   Then... I found one I liked and bought it online at Lowe's com..and there was a HUGE ( I mean like, epic)  pricing error.   Then drama ensued at the store when I tried to pick it up.

    It's all over now.  Tile is in the garage waiting to be installed on Friday.  Finally.

    Haha! I understand that! I am hoping that by being married to the contractor mine will be slightly less headache inducing. :) How's that going by the way? When are they installing?

    Our garage is like Home Depot because the field guys drop tools off all the time before they catch flights and there is a miter saw Randall has been dying to use. When I mentioned the mirror tutorial required a miter box he was like oh no, we're using the miter saw!!! I think he is more excited than I am.

    Welcome! You've crossed over! How was the wedding?

    Why would you ever get insurance with an exclusion on one of your body parts? This guy is having issues and now he'll have to pay for it out of pocket cause he bought the "cheaper" plan that doesn't cover what he needs. I wish there was something I could do.

  • haha! thank you :)

    its a little different over here, i must admit. And i can't help but ask, what the heck are these "points" under our avatars and such?

    ETA: as for the wedding D - it went well. We had a few more than minor hiccups. but that's fine :) I can't wait to see the pictures!

    We have no idea and neither do the international boards. It's a great Nest mystery. Welcome!

    Speaking of international boards, I lurk but never post on some of them, and there's a girl on another board that looks very much like me - I just sent the picture to my sister to confirm.  I am always getting told that I look very familiar, or just like a person that someone used to know, or that sort of thing... so it's weird for me to think that about myself and this girl.

    ETA typo.

    It means whoever has the most points rules the interwebz.

    I think that means, at least from this page, that Leslie rules the interwebz!  Party!!!

  • Today is my Friday!!  Whooo hooo!

    Leslie, that is awesome that the two of you are on the same page and I think it's a great idea to do a DIY project together!

    Tiffany, I'm glad your tile fiasco is over!  I can't wait to see pics of your new kitchen!

    That is one nice postal worker! I did the same thing once and didn't notice until the next day when I was staring at the invoices. :(

    Hope it works out!

    Lesalyric- Yay! That's exciting :) You should take before and after pics :)

    BL- That's a great price for a gym membership!

    Bri- Congrats again! :) That is so exciting !

    Chels- Congrats on the boot camp!

  • Ben and I went to SA a couple of years ago and I thought it was lame.  ALL we did was walk up and down the Riverwalk and ate and drank.  I was ready to come home.

    If you guys are realllly bored, you can read the trip report I wrote on Trip Advisor about our trip to Vegas here:  http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowTopic-g45963-i10-k4857664-Vegas_Newbies_TR_9_29_10_3-Las_Vegas_Nevada.html

    Tiffany, I had been wondering how the tile job went!  Thanks for the update and let us know how it goes.

    I'm still buried at work and trying to catch up.  I think we are still on Vegas time--we have been up until past 11:30 every night which is unheard of for me.

    I love that you write reviews on there.  I do too, and I am thankful for anyone who does the same! It really improves vacationing.

    I agree and plus it's a great way to relive the trip!
