Good Monday morning, my Christmas friends!
I started a diet this morning. It's one of those week-long vegetable soup deals. The soup is actually very good, but I have to eat it as my only meal...three meals a day for a week.I've done it before and lost a little less than 15 pounds in a week, but that soup starts getting old after a few days. That's what I get for letting myself go, though.
We've been trying to settle on a graduation present for Jacob. He wants the fancy German-made bass guitar, but I'd have to be a much wealthier man to pay for it. That boy has some expensive taste! He's going to have to set his sights a little lower, though.
And I have to take him for his college physical at the doctor's office. I can't believe all the stuff you have to go through just to get you kid into a college. Grr.
I hope y'all have a great day!
Good luck with the soup diet. I should join you!
Hope all goes well for Jacob!
Have a great day Brad!
That's about what I said! His parents have a couple of successful businesses and I think that's the majority of it. They are helping with the expenses, so I can't really complain.
The real pain of this is that this is the first of my daughters getting married. I have six daughters. This daughter is not my eldest, who is now 30 and feeling a little...awkward... about it all. But since it is the first wedding every detail is really important...the dress...who gets to go look for the dress...who is there the first time it is put on...who is doing her hair...what are the colors....and all the way overblown details that are important but at the end of the day really aren't important.
This is our pain right now and my job, because I'm Daddy and thus a moron, is to merely pick up whoever's feelings are hurt, scrape them off the floor, and tell them to get over it. Seriously, I've not had this drama with my girls since they argued who the puppy was for on Christmas morning 15 years ago.
I find I can only make things worse by opening my mouth too much -- so YOU guys get to be my sounding board.
The dress thing got done this weekend, fortunately. I haven't started drinking yet. Now to get the invites out....
Have a great week Mecka!Good morning!
Where did the weekend go? I was hoping to catch up on some sleep, but if anything I fell further behind as I had trouble staying asleep. Hoping to get everything done in record time today so I can call it a night (or should I say afternoon?) earlier.
This week starts garage sale season which is a chance to find store stock at reasonable prices and I get to spend time with family and friends. It is also a lot of fun. First up is a book sale at the local library. Going to be a busy week!
Have a Merry week!!!
So exciting....have a great week Binger!
I love chicken noodle soup too!! Have a great day, HMG!
Merry Monday Snowflake...hope it is a great start to the week!
Happy Monday Edge!! Sounds like a great gift for your Mom...nice that you have some long weekends off. It is always nice to have something to look forward to!Good Monday Morning MMC! First work week of May. Looking forward to this month with Mothers Day and Memorial Day. I've got off 2 Mondays this month (16th and 30th) so I'm looking forward to that. This is my busy week at work although it's not terrible. Looks like we're going to have a damp, cool and cloudy week. So much for May flowers. Anyway, I got my mom a gift certificate for her hair salon, a cake and then we're gonna take her out for brunch in a couple weeks.
Hope you all have a great Monday!
Congrats to your daughter...what a beautiful pic!Have I told you all that I have a daughter getting married in June? It's all good, they got engaged last month. This was the big moment:
But have I told you what fun weddings are, especially one that we're attempting to pull off in less than 90 days...and that the groom's parents want to invite 350 people.
Kill me now.
Seriously, if I get through this without my head exploding, it'll be a miracle. Christmas in July can't come fast enough.
Wow...that is a lot of people!
Nice way to start off the week..I have my Christmas music on too!Listening to Christmas music at work today. **headphones**
I cannot even believe that...1/2 way to Thanksgiving...crazy how time is flying by!
Have a good day Brad...good luck with the diet!! You can do it!Good Monday morning, my Christmas friends!

Good morning, Happy Monday!
Good luck with the diet. I would like to lose about 10 pounds myself. I've been trying to make healthier choices, we'll see how it goes.
Hope Jacob's appointment goes well!
Have a great day Brad!
The ticks are really bad this year, found another one crawling on Harlowe last night. So tiny-looked like a small spider.
Keep a close eye on your pets, and yourself!

Merry Monday!! It looks like it is going to be a dreary week w/on and off rain. Just work today and I am hoping to get a work out in this afternoon. Hope you all have a great day!
So very not cool!
Details, Details!!
Hope it all goes well! So exciting. My niece (my Goddaughter) said yes to a dress over the weekend! If it makes you feel any better, we had 625 invited to our wedding!
No, it wasn't!!So very not cool!
And of course I see it crawling on her head as she's finally taking her meds from me...had to stop and get it off of her! Bugger kept going deeper into her hair.
How exciting for your Goddaughter!Details, Details!!

EEK! That gives me the chills!! Nasty things!! I'm glad you found it right away!! Blah!No, it wasn't!!
