  • Re: Kentucky Derby . . . . . . Keeping on Track

    Hello everyone!!

    Sunny did you enjoy your walk? It was warm here yesterday as well. It's still in the 60s here but storms are on the way.

    Hey Glenda, are you happy to have your privacy back? I know you love your daughter, oh but there's nothing like having a little "me" time.

    I hope everyone is doing ok. I'm so sleepy right now. I guess I need to stop staying up to all hours of the night talking to certain individuals. LOL!!

        Hi My DS, I have not been feeling well since yesterday. I think I may have the stomach flu. Just feeling lethargic, had upset stomach all day today and had the chills. I don't have a fever, so thank God for that.

        I will try to check in again tomorrow but I need to go now.

          Just a quickie check in. It's beautiful today, so I have been outside most of the day. It's clouding up now, getting ready to rain, but I got a bunch done today--stuff that should have been done a couple of weeks ago. My house is a disaster area, but I don't care. I'll clean it back up on a rainy day. I hung two hummingbird feeders today, a few days earlier than last year, but they showed up the minute I put one out last year on the 12th, so they must have been around before that.

          Hope everyone has a great day today! Lashon--hope you feel better real soon. Katie--get back on the horse and ride, ride, ride! Cat--am I gonna have to give you a curfew??

          Sunny!

              It might be 18°C (64°F) today but it might snow in June. The last time I tent camped up at Sauble Beach the first week of June, it snowed enough to collapse my tent! I would wear a two-piece bathing suit out on the boat on Georgian Bay, then wear heavy sweats and sleep in two sleeping bags at night.

              Good luck on the Slim In 6--hope you live through it! It's amazing what a sunny, warm day will do for your energy level. I've been going flat out since 7:30 this morning. I even vacuumed my whole house and mopped the kitchen and bath--not because I had to--because I wanted to. I usually think about food, cook or think about the next meal, not because I'm hungry, but because I'm bored. Today, I had to make myself stop and eat. I still haven't had dinner, but better get to it--I don't like to eat after 7:00 p.m. and that's in a few minutes.

              Sunny!

                  Sure I can make it! I'll be there with bells on! Your Derby Sisters can be your attendants, in our skinny, beautiful dresses.

                      Sunny, I can't wait to see/meet you (all of you).

                      Katie, yes we've talked about marriage and considering we spend about 3 hours per night on the phone and have definite chemistry after meeting in person (like finishing each other sentences or saying what the other is thinking). He is so in tune with my feelings. He is my soul mate. We've talked about things that most people don't talk about within a year of dating. He knows my baby and I are a package deal (his words) and makes plans for us (as a family) when we go out. I know this sounds CRAZY. He and I have even said that this is crazy but you can't help how you feel. We're going to look at rings today.

                          Yep, it's official. We're getting married July 18, 2009.

                          Again, I know it sounds crazy but I'm sure as the air I breathe that this is the man God wants me to be with. Neither one of us are letting go.

                              No, that's where we're going today. However, I have to wait to get it (my doing) because my coworker is getting married and hasn't gotten her ring. She's getting married in January. If I get mine now she'll try to top me and brag about how much better her ring is than mine. I know it sounds stupid but this is the truth. She's done it with every other event in my life (like getting my new house) and I won't let her ruin this for me. She bought a bigger house (but she had a husband) and bragged about how her floors were "real" wood floors, etc. (I have laminate). She tried hard to get a lower interest rate than me but failed (but had an excuse for why it couldn't be lower than mine). I got my daughter a cell phone (for safety issues at her school) and she got her daughter the exact same phone but had to brag about the # that was assigned to her daughter's phone. I got a new cell phone...she turned around and bought one (never mind that she had just got one with her cell company so had to pay full price for this phone) "better" than mine so she could brag about it. Nope, I won't let her ruin this moment for me.

                                Whoa, Nellie! Put on the brakes and slow down! You are scaring me! Does he have any kids? Does he want more?? I know you would like to have another child, and Tashiana wants one, too. Which one of you will move? Did I mention that you are scaring me??? Does he have a house? I love your house. Do you know that there are only 464 days until July 18, 2009?

                                Sunny!
