Good morning


well it has been awhile :) not a lot happening the heat has finally hit and we are finally swimming this week swam a few times and it helped my weight loss I lost 5 and half pounds so I am hoping it will keep me more on track with loosing a couple pounds a week I am at a point where more excersize is important we really cant afford exspensive equipment so walks and the pool are important but the weather needs to cooperate well I have lost 45 pounds and Jonathn over 60
pounds so we are feeling good the dogs are really feeling the heat not as active I set up the little turtle pool in back for them to swim and drink. been working on our site if you visit the hidaway or news page you can get to our new image place I am still working on it but it has alot of pics avatars and some calenders for your blogs and working on the scrap booking pages hoping to have them running by fall .

Trip to the zoo and more


well I keep saying I am going to write in this blog today and today at times seems to never arive lol well lets see what have I been up to??? hmm well we went to the zoo one day it was alot of fun and even relaxing we took alot of great pictures and had just a wonderfull day. I also spent the day with Anne on day last week shoping it was alot of fun I really enjoy our trips then another day we went to dinner with Anne and ken it was a very nice evening I had food I had never tried befor stuffed shrimp and a really wonderfull rice dish . we have started to set up the pool it is raining today so wont get it done today but we are hoping for some nice days next week to get it done and get to swimming wich we really both enjoy. the diet well we both keep going up and down with a pound so we are hoping the swimming will help get us on the loosing track again . in total jonathan has lost about 40 and I have lost about 30 we are pleased so far.
the pets are doing great we gave sandy a very short hair cut for summer he gets so hot if we dont and jonathan is ready to sell all the trimming equipment because he nicked sandys ear and made it bleed I had told him to keep close attenion to what he was doing but did he listen no like usual another I told you so . he wanted me to feel bad for him but I said no not this time the I told you so caused an injury I just wish you would listen to me once in awhile I love you dearly but you never beleive what I say I have never lied yet you still do things your way and learn bad lessons sometimes hope fully he will take a chance the next time and listen to my advice when I offer it.
the website is coming along nice but still alot of work I want to get my scrap book section going and some tags for folks to use in emails pluss more updating does it end lol i love doing it I just tend to set myself up to get overwelmed somtimes well I guess thats it for now photo is from our trip to the zoo .

Rainy day stuff


well it has been almost 2 weeks since I wrote a bit here, well been trying to get our web pages updated for a move to new host, we visited with friends this past week it was alot of fun and we visited aunt sis as well been a busy rainy week its getting kind of depressing but I guess if you look at the bright side all the flowers trees and bushes should be beatiful once the sun comes out :) well I have lost a couple more pounds on the diet and hubby has lost another 5 so the diet is still working for us havnt quit yet and hope to eat better the rest of our lives becuase it is easier than I thought all the stuff is there :) the pets are doing well Misty Kitty spent the whole night out wich I hate it was the first time since good weather the pup sandy was so hot last week so we have desided to shave him to just a quater in hair on his body a little more on his legs but we are waiting for rain to stop doesnt make sence when he gets so muddy to bathe brush and trip lol but soon Tipper actually shows depression during rainy days laying about pouting and elsa seems to pick on everyone becuase they are all in lol.

We have been discussing vacation or if we are just going to take a few day trips we are finally desiding to interview pet sitting companies so we wont need to put them in a kennal if we want to go a way for a aweek someday we would like to rent a big camper and travel 2 weeks to relitives in other states and maybe see some atractions to and take the pets with us we will see I guess.

got the basement cleaned now need to paint would love to make a nice excersize room down there hope to get it done by fall and today updating site still and doing some more spring cleaning seeing as gardening is out do to all the rain can wait for the beautiful sun shine and flowers soon very soon :) I also started a entertain ment hobby(Photograpghy and 3d art)and friends blog at myspace if you have a myspace acount please feel free to ad to friends http://www.myspace.com/ljr927 pic isnt me of corse but can tell by what I write its me lol and jr in my friends list is Jonathan my husband space well Hugs fror now good day.

Happy Easter


Well it is Easter morning sunny and Beautiful out I am headed to send ecards to some friends and family, and thought I would write a bit here .the Diet is going well another 4 pound loss this week not like the huge 10 and 12 pound losses in the first weeks but still a loss and sappose to be at a averge of 2 pounds a week by now so 4 is still pretty big, so I am pretty happy . like they say it takes years to put it on so expect it to take time to get it back off I suspect 16 months to get near my goal weight but the closer I get the better I will feel and I am so excited that Jonathan likes the diet and how much . We are both eating better and still get plenty of food it is so not like the old days when I would diet as a teen all I could eat it seemed was fish chicken and vegitables very little bread and other carbs now I am aloud some regular bread wheet breads wich the new wonder is wonderful:) when we are aloud pasta in a recipie we step it up a notch for health and use wheet wich I see no real big difrence I actually like it oh and for that chocolate moment healthy choice fudge ice cream bars they are awsome or sugar free puddings are great and jello jelletin is great to for those sweet tooth days the products out there now are so great compared to old diets I was on 20 years ago . we are aloud snacks well I one snack and jonathan 3 snacks he is on a higher calerie plan and he is loosing faster wich is great but we found chips cheese curls and so on made with natural ingredients that tast like the ones we have known for years . so the diet will say I can have 6 tortia chips and I look up caleries it might say 6o for 6 chips where the all natural it is 16 at 60 calleries and they are better for you less fats and so on.
the other nice thing ediets has is if you are going to need to have fast food that day or resteraunt food they let you know what you can have like I can have chicken or fish sandwich or big bacon clasic with side salad now of corse no fries but thats ok lol and alot of restraunts have there menues with health and calerie info right on line, like subway and pizza hot pizza hot actually has a pizza that is lower in caleries a little less cheeze more toppings of vegies and a special lower cal crust I can have 3 peices and salad I am not hungry. and can still have pretty good meals well alot better than when I was kid dieting. woo hoo somthing we both can fallow and I am so proud of Jonathan you could neve undestand how proud I am of him it has been so hard for him to diet and he is doing it and seems very comfortable with the diet. it is scary us both being in hi danger range and both now over 35 Our hearts could give out at any time so it was and is pretty scary well I am proud of us both.

well this spring Easter morning full of hope and joy is so wonderfull the birds are singing the sun shining the pets are all curled up sleeping and so is jonathan and I here enjoying the morning with coffe and music so so many beatiful flowers I predict a picture perfect day ahead. Picture above taken outside my window.

Whats Up??? Hmmmm

Well another bit of time has past I guess not really to much happening except for dieting we have started ediets and finally think we have found somthing we can stick with we are keeping a dieting blog at ediets and may post a bit here as well I am already feeling better and am tired at a normal time and very energetic during the day we are hoping to get a good stat on the diet and maybe a little excersise as we become comfortable with what we can do for excersize that by pool opening time when we will have a regular swiming rutine each day it permits wich will help even more.

lets see what else well the pets they all went for checkups except tipper she has been a few times on her ears and weight and will probably be going in again soon for her change of season ear alergies and infections we just cant seem to catch it in time even with cleaning them all the time the pup came out with an A pluss visit and got the works on his shots the cats elsa our main coon is being watched on her Kidneys they recomend a wet food instead of dry to keep her with more fluid and Oh my gosh Misty was so cranky with her visit but she came out with an A pluss like the Pup the vets had to wear gloves she was so cranky maybe it is just age although she is only 8 so is Elsa Tipper is going to be six this year and the pup Sandy is a year and a half not a pup any more . well I guess that is it just doesnt seem to be to much happening it was funny tonight Sandy was so cute he thinks Ice cubes are treats we where cleaning the freezer and put a ton of them in the water bowl he took each one out and put them in piles of like six or seven all over the house it was so cute I felt bad and didnt want him sick so had to pick them up so kept his mind off them paying his favorite game of ball
