Happy Gobble Day

Every year for the past 6-7 years all of the "inner circle" has gotten together to celebrate Thanksgiving. After we have stuffed ourselves beyond belief at the parent's, in-laws, etc...we would all get together at someone's house and have a potluck Thanksgiving. Noodle Spiller always cooked the turkey, Bob always cooked the dressing and the rest of us brought whatever we could whip up last minute. This year is no different. Once again I'll go to my Granny's and stuff my face for 2 days on Turkey, dressing, macaroni salad, that weird green foamy stuff, and whatever else I can fit on my plate. Then, I'll come home and do it all over again at the friend's party. Man, I love Thanksgiving! I don't know how much longer the group will be having the annual get-togethers, but I'll enjoy them until they're gone.
Love to everyone. Be careful if you travel and don't eat so much turkey that you go into a coma.

No More NHO!!!

I just read that an environmentally conscious Japanese firm has just come out with a heated bra. Apparently, this thing was invented to cut down the costs associated with heating your home, car, etc...That's right ladies, no more embarrassing nips peeking from under your winter wear. Sorry fellas. So, here's my question to all you girls, have you ever just thought to yourself, or maybe said out loud which you regret later, "Man, my tits are freezing!" I think as long as the girls are covered, I've never had to complain of frost bite to the nips. Do you think this is a problem with some folks? Do you think anyone has ever been a victim of overly cold boobs? I can understand heated socks, hats, scarfs, ect..but a bra? I mean honestly, who comes up with this stuff?

House Hunting

As many of you know NHP moved in with me last month. Since my apartment was already full before he moved in, now it's just a cluster of furniture piled to the ceiling. So, we have decided it's time to move on. My lease is up in March(I think) and we have been looking for a house to rent. Because I want Poohbear in the best school possible, we have been leaning towards the Pelham area. Well, now I've been finding houses to buy. I found a dozen or so that meet our needs, the only problem is time and money. Unless I find someone willing to pay closing costs and down payments, we are screwed. If any of you guys care to shell out about $20,000 that would be cool. Just drop me a line and I'll let you know where to send the money. Until then, the search continues.

Well How 'Bout That?

Hopped on the scales at my mom's this weekend, just to see how much I weigh, and let me tell you how excited I was. It's been a while since I've weighed and going by the way my pants fit(or don't fit) I figured myself to be 10 pounds heavier than I am. That means I only have 10 pounds to lose instead of 20! WOO-HOO!!! I do feel alot better since I've been eating healthier. Maybe something good will come out of this instead of just weight loss. I have lived my life thinking I had great genes and could eat double cheeseburgers all day, everday without gaining weight. That was true until my son was born. Now everything I eat goes straight to the hips. Oh well, the price you pay. I'll keep ya posted on my weigh loss extravaganza.

Rabbit Food

Have you ever noticed that when you get into a comfortable situation you just let certain things go? Well, I let my weight go and now I can't fit into any of my old clothes. Yesterday I made a decision to do something about it. I went to lunch and pigged out on Chick-Fil-A one last time before the next few months of salad, fruit and water. Then, last night I ate just enough tuna salad and water to get me through the night. This afternoon for lunch I get a salad and yogurt. Man, this is going to be the longest 2 months ever. My goal is to lose 20 pounds by January 1st. Wish me luck.
