You two heard Timbaland Apologize? I think I asked you T, but I do love it. Check it out...or what are you going to tell me it's been all over LA for months, right? HA!
I love mini corona's Ashley. SO CUTE! I am having some on Wednesday w/ my drug rep friend Molly....we went a couple weeks ago when the mariachi band was doing the macarena and we died having so much fun.

Banana cake. Yum-o.

I cant believe how expensive it is to get kids in school, dang. Well, I am about to fall asleep, must get something going.

Hugs.

[cardenas5usa]

Yep, I like it! I bet it is hittttting you to the core huh? It is always to have a song that you can identify with. The Macarena, that is so much fun when you have had enough to drink that you no longer care that you look goofy,lol. The banana cake was good, from Rose's, it's a chain don't know if you know it, but i have to say that my banana box cake recipe tastes so much better, it doesn't have any fake banana flavoring like the Rose's does.

Glad to see you check in Jina, we miss you. So what is with the 20 beers? Did I miss something,lol?

Slurp slurp slurp, haha. We just went to our new dollar store, just opened the 10th, it is the biggest and nicest one I have ever seen.

Tomarrow, I am going to curves, E's crazy schedule lately has been throwing my schedule off big time. I hate that! I wish I had a bowflex.....or should I say space for a bowflex, cause then I could get one and do my strength training on my own time....oh well, it'll come together hear soon.

How are you doing??!?!

I am ok, DS is out sick today so I sit here and answer phones, catch up, it's quiet and nice. Me and my cell phone, I am such a crazy texter these days I swear.
Ash do you still get on Myspace? We should chat.

T, "Baby if you strip you can get a tip cuz I like you just the way you are"....love's it.
I love that apologize song, it doesn't make me sad, it's empowering really...too little too late.

SO, Erin over tonight, Aimee in town tomorrow, how to juggle?

Ash, you are still hitting curves, glad to hear it. How is your catering business coming along? How did your aprons turn out?
How's T, T? Appts. still going OK? R like his new job? J adjusting to her new home?

I miss you two. A super lot.

[carbjunkie]

Hey..did I tell you we went to lunch on Sunday and the guy who is on the Netzero commercials (the owner) he sat next to us (I only noticed him bcuz he parked his Bentley right out front)

You on a drinky binge too? Glad I am not the only one. More tonight, but I am off tomorrow - yay!

Still at work, bein' bored....but it's better than being stressed.

[carbjunkie]

Thank you for the compliment on the kids G..I just love their cute smiles

I haven't been on a binge but I definately have had a couple every day but I'm not having anymore until Saturday.

You're right..being bored is a hell of alot better!

T.

[cardenas5usa]

What the hello, I have tried a few times to post and it always says it's too busy.....maybe this will work????

[cardenas5usa]

Love the kids pic!! They look so "out to the ballgame!"

Jina, you sound really good today!!! I am happy for that, NICE! I haven't been on myspace for a couple of months, kinda forgot about it, I need to go put up new pics.

Me, spank me now and get it over with!!!!!!!!!!!!! I didn't go to curves again, E suggested going to the theme park, it was BOGO day, how could I pass?!?!? So we walked areoud all afternoon and just got back, my friggin knee is killing me though! It was 90* and we walk forever, so maybe that counts?

I am so tired, I am going to prop my knee now, bbl, A

[carbjunkie]

Morning ladies

I have a busy morning so I'll be back after 1.

Hope you have a lovely day.

T.

ps..did you see hurricane Flossie? too funny

[cardenas5usa]

Morning girls! I didn't see Flossy flossy?!!? I should watch more news and read the paper, I jut never seem to find the time.

Well, we just had our breakfast, 1/2 english muffin, 1/2 turkey sausage patty, cup light soy milk.

So today we are out for a hike at a new park, I need it, as long as my knee holds up. Yesterday I iced it when I went to bed and watched the Hitcher (predictable) and today I took Ibu, so I hope that helps.

Okay my peeps, have a good one, see ya in the afternoon! Ash

[carbjunkie]

Ash..such a small bfast..I don't think I could go the morning with that little bit but I guess that's why you've lost yours and I haven't right?

Where are ya sweet G?

I'll be back to check in on you two.

[cardenas5usa]

Hello, a quick note before I refresh and read the days happenings. We just got back from our hike, it was a good one. We took our friends that want to get into caching with thier kids and they enjoyed theirselves. We found the first one really quick and then the second was a multi one, and the final point was missing it's containter, bummer for them.

It is time for me to eat but I don't even feel that hungry. Hmmm....A

[cardenas5usa]

That was a quick read! LOL, it was a small breakfast, usually I am not hungry in the morning and can really save myself some cals if I just get a few bites down to get the system burning. Okay, we are off to go see what we can find.

Jina, how was your day?

Love you girls!! Ash

[cardenas5usa]

We're back from another cache hunt, just found that one, tried to hit another but the office building that it is hidden at is full of people having a meeting right at the window, felt kinda weird, so we'll get that one on the weekend maybey. Well, for dinner we had a slice of pizza and a diet, just enough, actually now it feels heavy, but i liked eating just a slice rather than a whole pie,lol.

So how did that better eating go today T? I bet it went well! A

[carbjunkie]

Good Morning

Ashley..all that activity is definately helping you maintain your loss..you're doing such a great job and the kids are having fun too

Here's what I ate yesterday

B - actually forgot
L - turkey club sandwich at restaurant
D - tuna sandwich w/mayo - I didn't feel like cooking dinner

I haven't had a beer so that's actually a good thing!

How are you Jina?

T.

[Stelakate]

How are you doing? I am doing well, I am getting ready to have lunch w/ Aimee after having dinner w/ Erin last night. Playa here. It's going ok, just having fun and being free, not a lot to report really.

Well, I just wanted to say hey, looks like you two are well and having a good time. YAY!

Miss you!

[cardenas5usa]

Hi T, I see ya! I am typing now......

[cardenas5usa]

Okay, yes we have been having a lot of fun with the caches, it really does keep us moving and we find tons of new parks and places to see on the way. It is really easy to forget to eat when we are out,lol.

This am I had half a granola bar and some milk. Now for lunch, which I just finished, a big salad with tomato, cucumbers, and feta with a little roast beef on top. Oh, and for snack, we had some blackberries that we picked while walking, they are so sweet this time of year, yum!

Now we are home for a break and then I think we'll go out for a neighborhood walk.

How is it going for you T? Looks like good choices yesterday! And good job on the beer strike LOL! KIU.

Jina, having fun and playing the field, sounds like you too were ready for a change, have fun! So what have you been eating? Do you still do protein shakes or are you totally off those?

Love, A

[carbjunkie]

Hi Ash

I see you too I am doing much better than last week that's for sure. I haven't been pigging out or anything like that but you know how I am. I can't eat what I want..and when I do..I put the lbs on.

It is my 17th anniversary on Sat 8/18 so we're off to the wineries for some alone time tomorrow. We are staying at southcoastwinery.com if you wanna check it out..so nice there. I talked to J today and she said R called her for some gift ideas for me. J said why don't you fly me down and I can be her present? she's too cute.

You have been eating pretty good lately Ash I'm ready to see a good loss by next friday. I am back to work on Monday. I'll post my eats and exercise like old times..maybe it'll spark something in me.

Have I told you girls lately I love ya?

T.

[cardenas5usa]

17 is a long time these days!! Good for you guys!! That is too funny that J gives R gift suggestions, and she wanted to be the gift, how sweet! You just never know, she may show up lol!

Night night T, and Jina, where ever you are having fun!

Ashley

[carbjunkie]

Morning A & J

I'm off to go play but I wanted to say hello before I go. I hope you both have a very nice weekend.

Ashley find me the diamond treasure while geocaching!

Lots of Love from L.A.

T.

[cardenas5usa]

Afternoon girls!! We went to garage sales this morning, found lots of trinckets, my best buy, these semi-dried blueberries sealed with sunflower oil. They taste just like the best fruit leather you have ever tasted, yum! And they were only 1.50 a pound

Anyhow, I didn't weigh myself this AM, because I forgot to before eating but, at the same time, I figure why bother since I feel well and I am maintaining. Hope you two are having a great TGIF!!

Okay, I am posting this so I can read what you girls are up to! A

[cardenas5usa]

See ya T, you too have a wonderful weekend!! Make the most of it, wink wink,lol!!

Jina, no check in from you, I bet you are like 206 this week, almost adios to the 2s. Check back later tonight, Ash XOXOX

[carbjunkie]

Hello Ashley! I'm writing you from R's laptop. We have been in our room for about an hour having a bottle of Merlot. It's 103 up here but it's windy so it is beautiful! We are going to a winery that specializes in great champagne and then we are off to dinner. How cool is it that I can write you from my room?

The blueberries sound yummy! I hope you have a great evening with your family Ash.

XOXO
T.
