Sibby's Journal

Hey Fs'ers! Been a crazy fun past weekend and I'm finally NOT tired from it all...ha! We all had a great time at the local Dozinky days and we're all almost back to normal! I felt like I had eaten a ton, but in reality I did not at all. I was proud of myself after the fact. I guess I really am making WW a life-habit, hu? I actually was up 1 lb. but back down the next day...must have been the 'beverage' consumption that I will blame it on :o)!
Homecoming week here in our little town, so this week is busy for the kiddo's will a bunch of fun activities. I'll fill my SUV with a ton of local kids and head to the game Friday night...however, we'll all have to paint/dress ourselves in crazy school colors and such first, ya know...wouldn't be homecoming without it! :o)
I was reading about "The 9th Law diet"...http://www.secretloss.com
It seems SO easy and pretty darn healthy. Not that I'm wanting totally to change my 'eating habit'...just interested maybe in changing it up...anyone try it yet?? I'm interested to know.
I seem to be more focused lately...much needed as I NEED to kick this 136 to the curb already and INCREASE the gravitational pull on my chart over there! I committed to running a 5K with a couple friends (not until spring...but HEY...I COMMITTED TO IT!) so over the next few months I'm gonna really pump up the activity....well, to be honest START SOME activity and I wanna all out RUN that thing. I CAN DO IT...I KNOW IT! I figure if I can walk 8 miles in a little over 1 hour 40 minutes I can do this...ya know, I should just try running some of that 8 miles today...hummm...I'll try it and report back to ya to see how I did...:o)
I must say...I truly love this site...I read about your lives and get inspired...I read your journals and comments and feel like 'that's me' and can relate...sometimes I have not experienced your exact situation, but I learn so much from you all...I hope and wish you all well...I wish you to find your 'ultimate goal'...and you find peace in yourselves and enjoy life!
Make today a great day for yourself with even the smallest of things! Hugs to you all!

Jak Se Mate? Dobre! (How are you? I'm good!) (Czech)
Wicked man, can you believe it's FRIDAY already! This week was something alright...NOT good on the diet front (I'm sure some of my meanie fs'ers will let me have it, (BadA), but I probably deserve it!
I did well the first part of the week and actually walked a total of 10 miles in 2 days...not bad...then IN THE TOILET with the rest of the week!!! glug glug....
I think I broke my nose the other day...OUCH! I was changing the sheets on my son's top bunk...he has a shelf right there...I was along side it tuckin' away and I turned my head to the right really quick as he called me...and I slammed the side of my nose into the corner of that shelf...He asked me..'Wow, what was that crack? Sounded like someone got slapped'...as I sat there clutchin' my nose. I didn't want him to worry so I just smiled through the instant eye watering and headed to the bathroom...well, I now sport a crooked nose (insert BOOOOOOO here). We'll see...bummer I say, bummer. I told my hubby...'you now have a flawed wifie'...he said...'about time!'...and gave me a big hug...Great guy!
Livin' on Advil I am...good diet plan? HA!
This weekend is gonna be AWESOME! Where we live there is a 'czech fall harvest' called Dozinky (Doh-shink-ee)! SUPER fun, man! Friday night is the car cruise with food booths littered up and down the main street. Our city has 7 bars in it's 2 mile stretch so needless to say there will be beverages also...Street dance and thousands of people. (population almost 5,000) Saturday is the 'main event' with even more czech inspired themes...parade, craftsmen, pro-tug of war, food, bev's and all that good stuff that comes with a festival! We'll head there all day...I'll play vball early in the morning for my class of 88....2 of my kiddos are in the parade (FUN TIMES i say FUN TIMES!)...then we'll hang out and see the sights! At night there is an awesome band and we'll go to that...ALL the bars have bands/music...so there are TONS AND TONS of people spilling out into the street...(they close the main hi-way threw town for the weekend)...I'll let ya know how I fared! HA! I've got some huge'em sunglasses so not too many will have to see my crooked BEAK! HAHA!
Well, I SERIOUSLY need to re-fill my coffee (yup...I'm HI on caffeine again) and get my little ray of sun-shine up and going for the day!
I'll have a pivo(beer) and jiternice (type of sandwich) for all my FS'ers and toast a cheer to you all!
Make your day GREAT and you'll make someone else's day Great too! HUGS from your caffeined, rambling FS buddy! :o)

Good ((Yawn...stretch...SLAM coffee)) morning Fs'ers! I'm dragin' today. Yeowsah!! Been a crazy, crazy few days...all good I must say but crazy. It seems like I'm in the middle of a tornado around here with everyone/thing flying around. HA!
My weekend was a super time. Took the younger 2 kiddo's to the local high school football game and cheered on our "TROJANS" to a slammin' victory over the rivals! RAH RAH RAH! That was Friday night...
Saturday was our co-ed sball tourney. Now, lets talk fun! I LOVE playing co-ed ball. I play left-center and I got a total running work out for sure! The best is when you get that 'monsterly huge' dude up that thinks he's god's gift to us all and he tromps on that ball, nearly ripping the cover off and clips the wings of low flying planes...and lil' ole ME...all 5'4" of me...climbs the fence to catch it(ROBBING HIM OF A HOME RUN) or runs up gets it and throws his 'ego' OUT at second....(because he thinks girls can't throw)....YYYERRRRRR OUT!!!! SS AAA WWW EEEETTTTTT!!! HEEHEE
My hubby played just awesome! With his bum hand and all! He played 3rd or next to me and rocked the house! Get this...he batted 1,000 for 3 games!!! Ahhh...MVP totally! Such a Honey and cute to boot!! ;O)
Sunday was a good day...I cleaned up the house...(Ya, know 3 kiddos home alone for an entire day can REALLY mess up your house...HAHA!!) Made some wicked sloppy joes...Hey, did you know that the WW'ers english muffins are only 1 point even if you eat the entire thing??? NICE!!! ((me high fivin' you)) We watched football and ate most of the day...it was a down-pouring rain kind of day...Must say that with ALL the 'not so friendly' drinks(too many) and a couple squares of pizza, sloppy joes and just plain ole STUFF,,I didn't gain an ounce!! ODD ODD! But not complaining AT ALL!
Made my salsa and canned that yesterday. 42 cups of tomatoes/20 cups of peppers and so on...that's my first batch...it's so yumm-o and ZERO POINTS!! My garden did VERY well this year so I'll get a couple more batches like that for sure!
You'd be proud of me...while my daughter was at vball I put on my walkin' shoes and put on almost 6 miles walkin' yesterday! NICE!
Ok...I'm rambling...however, all this typing is starting to wake me up....or is it the 2 cups of coffee I drank while typing this?? Hummmm??? HA!
Have a rockin' day all! Surprise someone today with an unsuspected smile, hello, hi-five or 'I'll get that for ya'...It'll make YOUR day super too!
Hugs to ya....Sibby...over and OUT!
