| Freakin new trainer at the gym - Grr!! |
[16 Dec 2004|09:07am] |
Instead of writing this all out again, I'm just going to copy and paste this. I had already typed it up on my fitness messageboard. I am feeling much better about it today...but I had typed this last night as soon as I gotten home from the gym.
I'm not feeling so "SunshineKathie" right now. Feeling pretty blue.
Woke up feeling fat because I am so bloated, no big deal..guess PMS will be due soon. Then, I go to the gym and the same new trainer was bugging me again. He started a few months ago. As soon as I started training on my own, he approached me and said how the exercises I was doing wasn't benefiting where I needed it most and then he would literally point out each part of me that needs work. Well, that hurt but whatever. Continued brushing him off every time he 'volunteered' his 'advice.' He got the hint. The last few weeks, he's been pretty nice and just slightly social..no advice, no thing. Well, he started back at it again tonight. Said how I have no back muscles and how my arms are the only thing not slimming down because I'm not doing the proper tricep exercises. Then he tells me how that little fat by your chest & arm pit needs work, my laterals and my chest. He continues to go on about how good it is I am slimming down but if I want to make it in competition I need to learn to start doing the right exercises. In other words, he basically is telling me I am wasting my time. Then, he says "so, you're done your workout" I replied "yes, im burnt" he pinches by biceps and informs me I am not done because they are soft, not hard and I should feel knots in them and then I am done. Well, I lifted til failure. I'm fatigued.I am so done! Now, he could be being nice and offering me this advice to help me or he could be using this 'advice' to try to get me to train with him (NO WAY IN HELL. Funny story, comp was brought up a few weeks ago. He says which one and I was telling him how I heard about Emerald Cup so maybe some day that one or another one. He goes on about how he trains women for comp and how i need the proper guidance, ect ect. I amuze him and just listen. Then he asks 'what's emerald cup' LMAO!! Dude, you train people for comp and you don't know what emerald cup is? I even said that to him..he just shut up and walked away. fyi- he does know i am doing e-consults with Karen and her back round..like wtf!). I'm thinking it's #2.
Either way, it still bloody hurts!! You all know how much motivation and drive I have. I can and will conquer my goals but it's just the point that I somehow let this guy make me feel this way..this really, truelly sucks!!!!!
Guys, help - I'm blue
I'll post their responses under my post as replies

Chest/Shoulders/Abs was Monday, yesterday was Leg/Calves day!
Geez, I can bench press 100lbs now..in two weeks time i'll be benching my own weight..wait, it doesnt stop there. Last night, I was doing squats and now I squat 100lbs on the squat rack..I'll be squatting my own weight in two weeks time too..Holy Cow Man!!!! The rate I am going, watch out all the participants at these comps because man, I am coming for you! LMAO!

Urgh, I knew this was going to happen! This week is dragging!! Of course it would, after all, starting at NOON on the 23rd will be my vacation time for a whole 12 days. Why should this week not drag, right? LOL! Well, this is bologna dammit!!!! Argh!
All I can think about is my vacation, home in my pjs lounging and doing NOTHING for once(other than go to the gym - LOL). On my vacation I can go to the gym in the AM. Ah, how I love having my workouts first thing in the morning - something I can only do on the weekends. I can stay up as late as I want without having to worry about getting up early. I can lounge around and veg out - a rare thing for me nowadays. 12 whole days! Argh! Can't wait. I do have one thing that HAS to be done on vacation..make a FINAL decision on the bridesmaid dresses. I'll be taking my sister out one day(week day when they are slow) and find one. Then that will be that for that part of the to-do list. May do some crafting on vacation too and start making my photo card box for the wedding..that would be swell. Will cost only $20 to make and look soo pretty and look like I put a lot of time into it .. hee-hee.
I've been sitting at work surfing the net for various wedding things. Found my tiara I want(www.ecinderella.com is where I am getting it from). Found out what kind of veil too! Two tiered, finger tip length, pencil edging with accents of crystals all on a beautiful candlelight colored bridal illussion veil(www.veilshop.com). But now I am plain tuckered out with surfing the net for this crap. I need somethingelse. I've been very up-to-date and current on my fitness message board and now that is dead so I can't do that anymore..Urgh! Come on 4pm dammit!!!
Worked out the ol' chest/shoulders/abs yesterday. Normally, I don't get sore until about 48 hours but by golly, I am sore today! ouch! It's funny to see me try to pick up my coffee mug..LOL!!! Got in the 40 minutes HIIT yesterday on the treadmill too. Today's workout, LEGS & CALVES!!! I used to hate this day but now I love it. I'm becomming quite the strong woman. I can squat(on the squat rack) about 95lbs now..told you..LOL! No HIIT cardio no leg day..I can barely walk out of that gym and then let alone drive after this workout..LOL! I go to step on the gas and my legs shake..quite amuzing yet frustrating too. *rolls eyes*
Hey Colleen !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When you have some time, would you mind changing my layout for me? I'm bored with this one..thinking something serene like a beach scene or possibly something pretty & elegant that is wedding related? ;-) Let me know and I'll email you the information. :)
Well, time to take my supplement, eat Meal 4 and then finish this one report. Gotta have something done today....

| Man, I am just so bad with keeping up with this thing |
[13 Dec 2004|12:05pm] |
I truely am! I am just too darn busy anymore it's ridiculous!!!
All I feel I ever do anymore is eat, sleep, work, workout and when I am not doing that I am either running errands or doing housework...Argh!!! Oh, and we cannot forget the wedding planning - which was on stand-still for the last two months but now that Christmas is almost here it will mean back to wedding planning as we only have T-minus 271 more days til the big day.
Found out my wedding dress will arrive in March - Only 10 more weeks! Can't wait to see it, have it and try it on. :) My brother Jason is a real asshole!!! He got pissed at me for some stupid shit and therefore withdrew himself along with his daughter and son out of my wedding. Here's the kicker - HE DIDN"T EVEN TELL US! He lost his balls and had our Mom tell me. That's pretty fucked up considering my neice and nephew were going to be my ring bearer(I still have one tho) and flower girl and that he was Tom's friend and didn't even have the decency to at least call him and tell him. ASSHOLE!! Oh well, his loss..if he wants to be that way fine..sucks because now he is not even allowed/invited to my wedding..his loss!
Have all my Christmas shopping done. Wrapped all of Tom's presents and still have the rest of the family's to wrap..ugh, I hate wrapping. All my decorations are up..most of the Christmas cards are mailed. I had a baking session two Saturdays ago. I made six different cookies and four dozen of each...lots of cookies huh? Too bad I can't eat them. Well, I can but only on Saturdays(My Cheat Day)
Training and Nutrition have been going SUPER!!!! In 44 days I have lost 6% body fat, 8lbs of fat and ZERO muscle. That's what it's all about baby!!! :D I can't even tell you how many inches I have lost..You'll think it's crazy..let's just say over 10" lost. This new trainer, Karen, of mine is fabulous!! She says I am a born natural body builder the way my body has been reacting. Major plus as we plan on having me compete in a figure/fitness/body builder competion after the wedding. Yeah, that will tell you how well my progress has been coming along. ;-) So, I'm really proud of my accomplishments thus far and how all that is coming along.
Work has been crazy - as always.
Everythingelse I would say is same ol' same ol'

Ok, so I haven't updated you all much on my old trainer and how i've been making out with it. Well, Jonathon, you'll be happy to hear that I DUMPED THAT BITCH! bwahahaha!!!! Two weeks ago I did it, I used the excuse of 'due to my financial situation...' ha! Who can say 'no' to that? It's been a long time coming. The man promised he would train me one way and didn't. Then he was consistently bashing women. He was a control freak. Drove me batty! I'm tough and I can take a lot but enough was enough when I came in one evening, told him I was in a slump, explained it all and he put me down instead of doing his job to help me. Well, that was it!
It has, since then, been two weeks. In that time, I have hired Ms Fit aka Karen Sessions. You can find her on http://www.bodybuilders.com or her own website at http://www.theelitephysique.com . I found her about two years ago when I started to question my original trainer Eddie and some of his training techniques and/or nutrition guidance. She would steer me in the right direction. I found myself doing the same when I hired Ron. Don't know why I didn't go to her in the first place. Anywho, she does what she calls "E-consultations." Basically, she'll give you a full blow nutrition plan and training program(weights and cardio) based on the information that you give to her(weight, measurements, diet, ect). Each week your diet will change based on how your body is reacting..same goes with training. I hired her! Pretty reasonable too...for 12 weeks it is only $85. Anywho, it has only been a week into it and already I have.....lost 10 lbs, lost 2.21% Body Fat and lost 4 inches. I feel lighter, healthier and stronger. I am seeing more results with Karen in one week that I have in three months with Ron(although, when I first measured for Karen I found out I lost 6% BF with Ron..go me!). I am weight training 4 days a week and doing cardio training 3 days a week(off days,sometimes on the weight days all depending on how I feel).
I am extremely happy with Karen and myself and I can betcha that in 4 months time I will have totally transformed into one mean, lean fighting Kathie machine. :-D Who knows, maybe I'll compete in a Figure or BB competition after my wedding ;-)

I have a new personal trainer!! YaYaYa! And I really like her!
I fired Ron. He was pissing me off. Such a womanizer and not to mention he has NO IDEA on how to train a person properly in the art of weight lifting. And as for nutrition..he doesn't even want to touch that...wonder why - probably doesn't know anything about it..LOL!
So, I hired Karen. Karen is a body builder. You can learn more about her here
http://www.theelitephysique.com/ and then click on MsFits Bio on the left column. ;-)
I found her through bodybuilders.com about two years ago. I used to email her for advice when I thought Eddie(old trainer) and Ron were not giving me good information. She will be my trainer through strictly E-Consultations(gotta love the internet). I get a specific nutritional plan each week and a weight training program to follow every 3 weeks. Every Friday I have to email her my measurements and what I did for that week. If I follow this plan I will totally transform and be where I want to be in a matter of months. I can't wait, so excited!!! My new plans start TODAY!! :-)
I am Super Super Sick!!!!! I don't even have the energy to lift weights today but I just have to. Dr called in an antibiotic so I have to pick that up at CVS today on the way home. SOB called it in on Thursday and the receptionist never called to tell me..I could have been feeling better by now...GRR!!

After the weekend that I just encountered yup, I feel like Mrs Suzie fawkin homemaker!!
Let's see..where to begin...
Friday Night - Watched Mean Girls(finally!) with Tom and boy, did I love that movie. Totally kick ass! :-) Yeah, I know what you are thinking "you would." ha!
Saturday - Personal trainer appointment with Ron @ 10. Before that dropped off the movie (Man on Fire) at Blockbuster. Ran home after the PT appt, cleaned the entire apartment..I mean, total Fall is here clean up, then I went out front and weeded our entire walkway because it looked like shit. I dug up all my perrenials in the two planters and prepped them for my fall mums too. Then, I made dinner and some fresh, warm apple crisp for dessert.
Sunday - I ran to AC Moore to get a few fall items(ie berry wreath, shovel decor, ect). Then I went to Heritage Station where I purchased my haystack, pumpkins and two mums. Came home, unloaded it all and made the front of my house nice and fallish and then off I went to go grocery shopping. Now, I just sit for abit and then I have to make dinner- Breakfast(Bacon, Egg & Potatoe casserole..it's soo good) and dessert (Spice cake with butter creme icing)
On another note, had a dream last night about one of my old guy friends. I say old because we don't really talk anymore. I do miss him. We got along really well and it is VERY odd that the dream I had(no, not a sex dream) included him in it and well..it was just very odd!

| Stressed Out |
[08 Sep 2004|02:10pm] |
Well, it's finally hit me..the fact that a big wedding costs mundo bucks!!! All this time I've been calm but now, it seems like every other paycheck needs to go towards something for the wedding. Those bills on top of the every day bills and just the thought of us planning on looking for a house after the wedding and attempt Peanut #2 it's just AHHH, makes me want to scream. True, we are getting A LOT of financial help for the wedding from his parent's but still. I stopped the total so far at $15,000...crazy!!!! This month it's the florist and the wedding coordinator. Next month it's the gown, the honeymoon and some of the photographer. After that it's Tom's B-day and then Christmas..Argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Did I fail to mention that I'm also stressing about this because the two Admins under me decided to take advantage of the OT and now NONE of us, not even me is allowed OT. That's $150/week out of my paycheck now...OUCH!!!!!!!
Anyway, on another note, I'm totally excited yet nervous and scared that I have my appointment with my florist(Grove florist) to go over ideas for the Bridal party flowers. Should be interesting. I've printed out all my ideas and wrote down the list of all I need so I'm pretty prepared - I think!
Training appt last night was rough although I did pretty well - especially considering that was my first time lifting weights in 5 days. 5 days you say? Well, when one gets older their metabolism isn't all that great anymore so I loose a bit..blah! But apparently, this time I didn't - awfully proud of myself. Sad thing about yesterday, I missed my two aerobic classes that I usually take - Bummer!!! Good news, I tried on my jeans on Friday..the ones that Tom bought me for Christmas last year. Well, they haven't fit since I got pregnant and I've been working really hard to loose all that fat and guess what..THEY FIT!! yayaya! Out of the three they all fit, however, my favorite one I was able to get on no problem but couldn't sit down..ha! So, I'm still working on that one but I"m still pretty happy and proud of myself.

Seems I'm just always too busy to even bother with live journal - but Hey, I'm trying.
Nichole's wedding is Saturday..finally and thank god! She's driving me nuts. All I dream about is wedding stuff and it stresses me out. I know it's bc of her wedding bc I am just too relaxed about mine. I'll be leaving work at 3:30 today I have shit I have to do. I have to grab my BM dress from the cleaners, drop it off home. Then I have to run to rehearsal dinner then rehearsal. After that, it's off to the gym to get my cardio in. Then, tomorrow, I am taking a vacation day off of work to help her decorate the church. I'll go to the gym in the am, take a shower, go help her decorate. Then, Liz our friend from Cali, Nichole and I are going to Olive Garden for dinner. After that, it's the three of us plus Nichole's mom and Gma to head on over to the nail salon for our treatments..fun, fun! Then, Saturday...Wedding Day! I have to be up at 6:30 to meet her at her mother's at 7 for breakfast then off for hair and make up. Argh, busy busy! Sunday is laundry, groceries and cleaning. thank god we have Monday off so I can have ONE DAY to relax!!!!! Argh! And what really pisses me off about all of this is that I could only train with Ron 1x this week versus our usual 3..grr!! That's okay, I made a point to take a weight training class last night. Boy, what a work out. I haven't felt nauseated from a workout in a long time. Ha! I'm doing pretty well with it all though. I've lost 7 lbs and I've got pretty good definition. I am, however, displease. All the trainers at my gym don't train like I want to(Split routines) they train full body workout way. It stinks. I KNOW I could loose soo much more inches and faster if we did my ol' 3-day split routine but they don't do that there..it sucks!!!!! I know it's not my diet and I know it's not that Im not doing enough cardio bc I do. I know exactly what it is. It's quite frustrating. On a funny note, Tom thinks my muscular body now is pretty 'nasty' he says. He doesn't like buff women..ha! I'm not even that buff. I still have to lower my body fat percentage by WAYYY LOTS! But you can definately tell when I'm brushing my hair or something like that..ha!
Anyway, not too much else going on really. Work has been really busy but now I'm really bored!!! Is it 3:30 yet?!

Whoa, what a subject you thought, eh?
Morphieus is what I call my personal trainer Ron. Why? Well, seriously, he looks EXACTLY like Morphieus off of The Matrix...no lie!! Craziness!! Anywho, onto my story...
I got to the gym my normal time, he said he wanted to take me early..great! I could get done by 5:45, get on the treadmill for a half hour and still meet Nichole in time for tanning...Or so I thought.
Some 53 yr old lady started with us last night. Her and Ron were sooo engrossed in politic conversation that I found myself constantly asking him what circuit he wantd me to do next. Now, I take my training VERY seriously. I expect the same from my trainer..after all, that's what I am paying him for. Well, when I have to constantly ask while you gab..I find this a problem. Not to mention the fact that I had to ask him to spot me at some point for my last three. I shouldn't have to do that! Needless to say, I didn't get out until 6:15. Boy, was I pissed!
We are changing my schedule to Monday, Thursday & Saturday's now. My strength has progressed so well that we are going to be performing harder workouts. I will need more recovery time. Also, I need to get in more cardio time. This will help improve my endurance and burn off this fat. Ha!! He says minimum of 60 mins or maximum of 1 hr 15 mins for cardio on my off days. Good Grief!! I can do it though.. no problem.
Sadly, this 53 yr old bat will be training with us on Monday. I am so not looking forward to it as she is going to PISS ME OFF!!!
Onto other stuff....
Mary Jane, my wedding coordinator, never called me back yesterday. I came into work to an email at 4:20 stating she was very sorry she didn't call me back but she had a few bridal emergencies that arose. What on earth classifies as a bridal emergency?!?! She'll be calling me today around 10:30 to chat.
Going to the cleaners after work today. I hate to see this bill! I think half my dry cleaning wardrobe is being dropped off. Then, I'll run to the gym to get in some cardio, go tanning and then tackle cleaning the bathroom.
I have a full day tomorrow. I have the gym in the am. I'll be doing my own weight workout as Ron had a church function and couldn't train me tomorrow. I need to get in my 3 days a week so I'll be on my own tomorrow. Then, I have to take Missy to the groomer's for her 3 month beauty treatments..ha! Then, Tom's Uncle is having a 40th Birthday Party/Cook out(Let's hope it doesn't rain) at 3pm. We'll be attending that. Hopefully it doesn't rain..they've been planning this a lot lately. Don't know if they have a rain date tho....they never mentioned it. I like his family though. Looking forward to seeing them. They are all a bunch of fun-loving type people...really funny and fun! I'm lucky to have a soon to be in-law family that is like this..haha! Could have turned out a lot worse.

I never wrote what I got for my birthday!!!
Tom got me:
A pair of half hoop diamond earrings. The diamonds are channeled. I love them!
Two gold toe rings. One with a neat design. The other with a diamond cut butterfly.
A sapphirre and diamond, gold and silver bracelet..
Yeah, I'm spoiled!!! O:-)
Sadly, the clasp was broken and it was lost at work. He came home last week with a much prettier better one for my replacement. :) It is all gold with a very pretty, very rare purple gem..I can't remember the name of it....

| Catching Up |
[12 Aug 2004|08:02am] |

Can't believe the week is almost over. Amazing how as you get older the time goes by faster, isn't it?
Monday - Was a hectic day. Then again, what days aren't any more? I had work until 4:15. Ran home to grab Missy as she was 'suppose' to have her three month grooming appointment at 5:30. Only to find out that they were closed. I knew they didn't have evening hours yet they insisted upon scheduleing one..Whatever. Needless to say, I had my personal trainer appointment at 5:30 as well and I had to run the dog all the way home first the to the gym...making me 15 minutes late into my training session. Boy, was I pissed!!! After my workout, it was homebound to change my shirt and grab my tanning lotion. Nichole and I were out the door a few minutes later heading down to Hollywood Tans. Came home, made dinner, made our lunches for the next day, tidied up the house, took my shower and vegged for about an hour before retiring for the evening.
Tuesday- Geez, let me try to remember. Um, hm.... Ah, yes, I was 'suppose' to go the gym to run on the treadmill for an hour but when I got home from work I somehow managed to get a case of the Cleaning Bug and went on a cleaning frenzy. I tore apart my Kitchen from top to bottom and just scrubbed, scrubbed, scrubbed. Craziness! After cleaning, I made dinner, made lunches and then met Nichole to go tanning at Hollywood Tans. Ahhhh, and we can't forget my watching the season finale of Outback Jack!! Now, I'm not one much for reality tv but somehow, four episodes before the last, I got hooked. My gal, Natalie, won. I was jumping on the couch and screaming at the tv I was so happy. I'm nuts!!!!
Wednesday - Let's see. Work was the usual. Had my Chiropractor appointment after work. (I'm down to once week right now. I've improved drastically and finally have the green light to do gym activities at 100%. I"m thinking next Wednesday he'll tell me once every six weeks from here on out..we'll see). I was going to take an aerobic class after the Chiropractor but then realized that my nails needed to be refilled. It was either go today, Friday or Saturday. Now, you and I both know that a nail salon on a Friday or Saturday is INSANE! You won't dare see me step foot in one on either of those days. My choice was clear..go tonight!! Went and got my nails refilled, eyebrows waxed and my pedicure. I just love this color!!! Kind of like a flesh! Too bad they didn't have one to purchase *sigh*. After that, met with Nichole to go tanning. Came home, made dinner, made lunches...well, the usual evening routine.
My Wedding Coordinator called but I just missed her call. I've decided to hire a Day-Of Coordinator for my wedding. Makes it easier and stress-free on me that day, ya know? She'll be calling me today, to go over indepth of the tasks that I expect from her, ect ect. I'm pretty excited about it.
I was taking a break from the wedding plans for awhile because, let's face it, I had plenty of time. Now that we are coming up to the one year mark it's time to get busy again. My tax returns came in and that's in my Savings account to take care of my Wedding Attire. :) I tried on a few more dresses this past Saturday and plan on trying a few more. I know what dress I am getting but before I order it I want to make sure that that's THE ONE. At the end of next month, I'll be calling New Orleans to order my gown. It will then take four months for it to arrive. Also, next month's goal is to book our honeymoon. We were going to take a 10 day Royal Carribbean Cruise but opted for an All-Inclusive Resort, Secrets Excellence in Punta Cana. We'll be departing the Monday after our wedding for seven days..Ahh, can't wait! I really much rather go to Sandals because they have a lot more off-shore excursions and prettier landscaping but it's out of our price range - that is, unless when we meet with the travel agent he can get us a good deal. Ha!! I also have to meet with the Caterer to finalize the menu, change the linen colors as well as submit my cake design selection that I am absolutely in love with!!! I made an appointment to meet with Sue at Grove Florist on the 8th to go over ideas for the floral arrangments for the bridal party and the church. That's about all I am doing in September.
Today's agenda - Working. Blah. Then I have my personal trainer appointment with Ron right after work. Then I'll go tanning and then come home and start my evening routine..ha!

Hip Hip Horrah!
Hip Hip Horrah!
Tom just called. He got the job! An former co-worker works at a stainless steel company right down the street from where I work(literally 30 seconds away, about four buildings down). He called Tom mid week last week and told him they are in diar need of a stainless steel finisher(whatever the terminology is). Although that isn't Tom's expertise he does know how to do it and well. Bruce told him he basically has the job all he has to do is come in and talk to the foreman. Tom thought about it. Bruce called Friday and left a message saying that the foreman said if he came in and he did well he got the job but if he doesn't hear from him by today he would put the add in the paper. Well, I just knew Tom was going to take the job(Thank goodness I was right). He called Bruce yesterday, told him that he'd be in to talk to the foreman today. Needless to say, he just called and says he is to start Monday! His hours are the same as mine though they will possibly change with the overtime. Apparently, his benefits are great. The company is Union but as for if it is the same Union as the one Tom is currently in, I don't know. I'll talk more to him about it tonight when he comes home(late night). Hopefully, if we have the same lunch times we could have lunch together..that would be so swell. They also informed him that for two weeks in December, every year, they go on strike for more money. So they told him to be sure he has enough to last two weeks. Thank goodness they gave him a heads up. Tom says the foreman and men seem really nice and he seemed pretty happy on the phone(he was very nervous and skeptical earlier). They also say there is plenty of room for advancement within the company. I'm so happy!! Finally, a steady source of income for him. This will finally relieve some of his stress. Hopefully this works out.

What started off rather shitty didn't turn out to be so bad.
Friday night I did diddily. I had the chiropractor after work and then tanning. Came home and then just lounged around alone as Tom was working nights again.
Saturday I had my personal trainer appointment at 10 am so I was up bright and early for that. Went tanning afterwards and then tidied up the house but not before I stopped by McDonald's for Grilled Chicken Caeser salad..yummy!!
Got a call from Michelle about 7:30 asking if I was still heading to Philly. Shit!! I thought the Space Reunion was this comming weekend!! So, needless to say, I'm running around like a mad woman trying to make phone calls and get ready. Tom wasn't home from work and I didn't know when so I left a message on his cell and left a note on the kitchen table..I'm going to Philly!!! :-) It has been alittle over a year since my last trip out there and it has been three years since I actually drove into Philly myself. For a Space reunion, there wasn't anything or anyone holding me back from attending this. It was perfect timing too as I had been getting pretty down and depressed the two weeks prior missing my old friends and dancing my ass off and then on top of it..it was the weekend right before my birthday! I used to celebrate all my birthday's at the club with all my friends and dj's. Those were the birthday's that were the most fun.
Anyway, the Space Reunion was OFF THE HOOK!! There were soooo many friends I haven't seen in ages and a few in YEARS, at least five. It was crazy insane!! All the old space residents spun and even brought out the oldskool tracks..ahhhhh, HOTNESS! I could have sworn I couldn't dance anymore but most of it came back!! RAWKIN!!!!! Mandi and I got to dance together to our old Jeff Heart track(Thanks Jeff..you know I love you always!). Phil and I got to dance to some Mass tracks. I got to see Colleen, Gulia, Phil, Miquel,Joey, Nick, Lee, Jess...ah, so many people it was fantastic!! People came up to me that I couldn't even remember their name's. They all saying how they have pictures of me all over(Thank goodness I wasn't one of them that were on the projector..ah, that be bad!). It was a fantastic night! Good Vibes, Good tracks, Good dancers. <33333333333333
Sunday, I didn't even get up until about 1pm..ah!! Through my entire day off whack. Tom got home early as he didn't work and just did his laundry. We later went out with John & Nichole to watch Will Smith's I-Robot(Great movie but had some cheesy one-liners). Then, Tom is working nights all week and won't see me on my birthday(WEDNESDAY!!) so he gave me my presents last night. I got: A sapphire gold and silver bracelet, diamond earrings and two diamond cut gold toe rings(one with a butterfly!). I'm so spoiled..haha!!! But it stinks...I'll be home all alone on my birthday!! :*( Then, to top it off, we were going to take Monday off and go to the shore but he's staring his new job so now I can't even go to the shore. I'll probably never make it down there this summer...BUMMER!!!! *sigh*
Now, here I sit, at work. I can't focus and I'm running two hours behind my schedule..not good!!!! Best try to get this work started.......

Sitting here, checking emails and seeing that today will be a rather busy day today in the office.
Tonight, I have to reschedule my Chiropractor appt for Thursday so I can go Wed-Friday because I forgot I had the appointment today and scheduled my Personal Trainer in. There is just no way I can make it in time. So, it will be personal trainer tonight and tanning. Run by the library and drop off this book(I only made it through three chapters. I did not like it one bit). Tom will be working the landscaping today so I more than likely will not see him until later in the evening when I"m all puckered out from the gym. Ha!
Last night was rather eventful with my sister's birthday party.
All was going VERY well and everyone was having a grande ol' time until my brother, Jason(Yes, the 'supposedly' nice one with getting me my gown), decided to pull his holier than almighty attitude, cause a commotion in front of everyone yelling and screaming out of nowhere and making our poor mother cry. Why? All because the three of us were discussing Margie's(the 18 yr old) punishment for something she did. I merely said I agreed with Mom's punishment decision and next thing you know he's flipping out like I don't even know what. Saying things and treating me like dirt. Needless to say, I'm not his friends or people he encounters just every day and he will NOT get away with treating me that way. So, until he calls and/or stops by with a formal apology I will no longer be speaking with this individual. I have also come to the conclusion I do NOT want him paying for my wedding gown..gift or not .. as he's the type that will rub it in that he bought you this and for that you owe him.
Yes, I do not speak about this brother very often for this reason .... there is SO much that is bad about him right now; I do not like who he is becomming and it isn't very pretty. Anyway, to change the subject......
