I DH took DD home about 8:00 which is way past her bedtime but she had fun.

What time do you put your kids in for bed at night?

 

[klineyqueen]

I'll help. And by the way, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE ribs, bones and all. Also love fried chicken, bones intact. And nothing makes me happier than chewing on the bone from a ribeye steak

OK...I will admit that I like ribs....I can eat meat with bones...I just prefer boneless!!!

 

[klineyqueen]

Sounds like fun! I miss my BF. I can't even call her in the morning now because she is 3 hours behind...

My BF called me from her honeymoon. First question I asked....WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME!!!! Her new DH went to get some beer and she had a min. to call. Second question...DO YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS HERE....oops...she called at 11:30 PM. I was still awake but she totally forgot about the time change. She had just returned from the beach.

Not on the plate - It is like those giant turkey legs and you just hold onto the bone while you eat away at it.

Besides with DH I think it is just laziness. When I buy those grocery store rotessiere chickens that DH likes he claims he doesn't know how to get the meat off of it.

You should see my DH with a rotessiere chicken. It's like watching a caveman eat. He can really pick that carcass clean!

Since I didn't eat anything for dinner I was starving by about 8:00 so I headed to the snack bar at Bonkers...lots of healthy choices there. Anyway I ended up ordering the jalapeno poppers and just this morning figured up the points. At appoximately 4 points a piece with 7 pieces they were 28 points! Ouch! Of course then I used just a little ranch dressing with them so there was another 4 points. It was a good thing I still had 19 points left yesterday before that snack and I still had all of my flex points!

YIKES! I follow the old plan...but that is more than my daily allowence. I have been having a hard time lately. I really need to kick myself in the butt!

It looks like we are going to the KC Renaissance Festival this weekend and we may end up staying with DH's parents. If we do we will go to his parents on Friday night, go to Ren Fest on Saturday, stay at DH's parents Sat. night and come back on Sunday. We will probably miss 30,000.

Oh No!!!! I hope you like staying at your inlaws! You are trading a milestone for them!

 

[klineyqueen]

DD loves medicine more than she likes candy! It is a little strange.

Aarrrgggghhhh!

28,000!!!!

Good Pirate Twin!

 

[klineyqueen]

It's less than 500 per day! No sweat!

Post people!!! POST!!! We don't want Becca to miss it!

 

[klineyqueen]

I've had things come out dry quite often. I think it's if I cook it on high for too long or use too large of a crockpot. I bought a smaller one and it seems to work better when I make the chicken breasts. Also cooking on low helps.

I never cook on high....I guess that is the "secret."

 

[klineyqueen]

Bring her on! I'm going to feel safer with my DD doing E-mails than Disboarding (too public). I'll try to get her to Email some kind of opening to your girl at your address tonight.

FYI I was trying to look up tween hairstyles last night looking for something to do with her hair on formal night and Woo Hoo! Don't try that Google search without some kind of porno block!

YIKES!!!! Patsy is getting crazy with her google!!!!

OK...so maybe it is laziness!!!

Patsy....you certainly have a way with words. You always know how to make me laugh!!!!!

 

[klineyqueen]

Where did everyone go? Am I going to have to post alone??? I really don't want to talk to myself!

 

[becka]

What time do you put your kids in for bed at night?

DD usually wants to go to bed by 7:00 although sometimes as early as 6:30 she is telling us she wants to sleep.

DS has a bedtime of 8:30 and he usually ends up playing for a half hour or so after that but he is supposed to be in bed by 8:30 anyway.

Brandi, I'm here but I do actually have to work.
Y'all are like my water cooler break people.

It was not good! In the past I always followed the point ranges but the new plan gives you one set point target for each day and then you get 35 "flex" points to use throughout the week as you want or as you need in my case. You can use a few everyday or just blow them all at once if you want to splurge. Everyone gets these 35 points so I took a big chunk out of mine for the week.

Then again, it would be fun to watch you post 500 all by yourself.

John - I was looking at your linked website. Here is one for the group...in case you didn't check the link.

Just don't get discouraged because of one big splurge! That's what it's there for. Are you going to WW Meetings?

My house is clean and my kids are both napping.....I just might do that!
