  1. 29 this morning - down from 80 earlier in the week. Ever see one of those Eskimo girl dolls wrapped in a parka from head to toe? That was me doing my five miles today.

  2. 90 degrees on Tuesday; mid-80s yesterday; 36 this morning. You gotta love this Texas weather (unless you're cold-natured like me!)

      I must agree. This morning it was rather warm I walked out the house with short sleeves, this evening when I left work I had to run to my car and find my coat 'cause I had on short sleeves. It dang cold in San Antonio.

      I'm jennifer. Loves cold much more the hot and sun. Right now, my room has wide open windows and the room temperature is 0 C. But I'm normally dressed. My fingers are only slightly cold. but I love it. my wife don't. :)

  3. A good thing about living in a warm part of the country is that you can shop the summer clearance racks and don't have to wait until next year to wear all those bargains!

  4. A typical (spelled atypical) morning. Parents show up to keep the kids. Husband says we’ll be back Sunday; proclaims it a “no-bra trip;†and promises to buy me an appropriate dress when we get there (wherever “there†is). So am I stunned? Clueless? Intrigued? Excited? How ‘bout all of the above.

      All of the above! Have fun. :)

  5. After a 4-month hiatus decided to try the Sims again. Slowly reinstalling and I'm up to Pets with everything running smoothly. Cross your fingers for me!

      Thanks y'all. I've now added Supernatural into the mix and it's still running OK. I'm ecstatic about it.

  6. After an 8-month hiatus, I'm officially a working girl again. Even though I work at home and set my own hours (kind of), I'm ready for another vacation. Call me lazy and shiftless I guess!

  7. Back from a long weekend in my beloved Austin. Everything didn't go exactly as I'd planned but it was still a fun time for the whole family.

      Glad to have you back, jennifer!

      even though I read, "Beloved Asia" and thought, wow, that's a trip and a half!

  8. Back from my spontaneous mini-vacation. Among the highlights was a concert by my favorite classical guitarist and then getting to meet her. Had a great time but good to be home. I missed the kids!

      I'm glad you had a great time! Welcome back. :)

  9. Beginning my third day by myself in Austin working with a creep of a client I do not like. If he hits on me again he's toast (metaphorically speaking; he's bigger than me).

      Uh, hope that he will stop it and that you will find a right solution for his behaving.

      I'm Home! All is right with the world. I think what bugged me most about that guy was that he obviously had no respect for women.

      Hate that! Sorry you had to deal with that kind of slime.

  10. Both eyes black, nose peeking out from bandages swollen & discolored from skin cancer surgery yesterday. If I dared go out, I can hear me saying: "I'm sure he's often tempted, but really officer, my husband does NOT beat me!"

      I once got two black eyes by accident. You feel like everyone is looking at you, the poor beaten woman. Hope you recover soon.

      jenniferw23

      Wow, I wish I were really as strong as you all think. Actually I range from fairly strong to a total wuss and you can usually find me around the bottom of that spectrum! But thanks for all the hugs and well wishes. Hugs right back to all of you.

    4. Wolfenblu

      Really hope you get better and fast *hugs*

  11. Breaking in a new pair of hiking boots. Did four-and-a-half miles this morning; will get hubby to do a couple more with me when he gets in from work.

      I am jealous of your new hiking boots. Mine are starting to fall apart. :D

      1st time in 18 months I've been able to plan awesome outdoor activities. In the next 5 months I'll spend 21 days in the backcountry sleeping in a 2-person tent (unfortunately most of those days I'll be the only person in it!).

  12. Decided to surprise hubby and mow the yard before he got home. It was 106. For an hour or so at least this girl was "one hot chick!"

    1. MadameButterfly

      MadameButterfly

      That is a nice surprise, but wow.I bet you were cooked!

      Chicken0895

      That sounds nice (the surprise part, i mean). I'll never be able to mow a lawn though, hay fever allergies here

  13. Deleted some things from my iPhone between games at a weekend soccer tournament. Forgot when I deleted all those bookmarks that it would delete it on all my electronics. Now I have no bookmarks for Sims 3 sites. :(

    1. michalien

      Sorry to hear that.

      ack! I did that recently as well. It sucks!

    3. Rosewin

      Rosewin

      Well it just means you will have to discover a whole lot of new ones. >.< I used to make backups of my bookmarks.

  14. Did an all-day hike yesterday. It was a little hot, but got to get ready for a week-long backpacking trip this fall.

    1. Cloudwalker

      Cloudwalker

      you getting sponsors? ;)

    2. jenniferw23

      jenniferw23

      I'd probably have to pay any sponsors. Last time the guys kicked my butt and I dropped out early. Hadn't been keeping in shape like I should have since major surgery, though.

  15. Even though my job is mostly part time, mostly can be done at home, and my boss lets me sleep with him, I’d still rather not work. And I’m sure my boss would still let me sleep with him! : )

    1. michalien

      michalien

      LOL Jennifer. At least you have something - sleeping with.

    2. Nyxie

      Nyxie

      Your boss should feel lucky that you let him sleep with you!

    3. jenniferw23

      jenniferw23

      Technically I guess I'm unemployed since it's not like my "boss" pays me anything. There are benefits to working for your husband, though!!!

  16. Everyone's so excited about the Super Bowl and I don't even know who's playing. I like the commercials though

  17. Family's on the mend and back at work and school. Now I can work on getting me better. Going to start by sleeping the rest of the day!

      Thanks Sleepy and Blue. Couldn't sleep the whole day knowing I had so much to do but I'm beginning to feel better :)

  18. Finally caught up enough at work to take the summer off (though may take all summer to get caught up at The Asylum). So now that I'm back, make sure to be on your best behavior. Knowing how pure, sweet, and innocent I am you surely don't want to offend my maidenly sensitivity and make me blush! : )

    1. Kimi

      Kimi

      Lucky that you can take the summer off! I never ever do anything wrong, so this should be easy for me.

  19. First day of high school for my oldest today. I put a pix of us on Tumblr. I'm trying to smile and hold back my tears and he's like "Oh mom!"

      Next Tuesday will be the first day of school for my little guy, two others just going back to school. I will still cry. All my cousins are going to school this year so I can't watch them either lol.

      First day for Chay is the 9th, I am going to be so lost. No kids at home guess I will have to sim more if I don't get the job.

  20. Flat tire today; naturally husband's in Dallas. So proud of myself when I managed to get the baby tire loose and on the car. Then I couldn't lift the full-size tire into the SUV. So embarrassing. I need ice cream!

      When Wolfie and I were dating she had a flat and called me, and when I got there I saw her problem, she had 2 flats, she had fixed one and the other went down while she was fixing the first. She was not happy but I took the tires to the garage and fixed them. I thought she was helpless and was a bit disappointed. Love a woman that can change a tire. Jennifer those tires are very heavy, Wolf has trouble putting the truck tires in the truck bed, and she is buff lol.

    3. jenniferw23

      jenniferw23

      If the nice man who lifted the tire into my SUV had come by earlier, I'd have loved for him to change my flat. (I have a lot of endurance, Kivak, but not a lot of strength). But as it was, I changed the tire and only lacked putting it in the truck. I was so close to finishing what I started. I felt as if I faltered yards from the finish line and it aggravated me. But the ice cream made it all better. I ate both pints Cohzaku and never went near the gym. : )

    4. Wolfenblu

      Wolfenblu

      You deserved it! Those tires are heavy. I hate getting flats.

  21. Got tickets to see one of my favorite classical guitarists in Fort Worth tonight, but I'm still too sick to go. I'd really been looking forward to this. : (

      Glad for you. Whenever Tommy Emmanuel is in my city, i always going to watch him. he's great.

  22. Had a great weekend in Dallas/Fort Worth, topped off by an intimate evening with George Strait and 106.000 of his other close friends : )

    1. Kimi

      Lucky you! I read that it was a record setting crowd. I hope you had fun.

    2. jenniferw23

      jenniferw23

      Thanks, Kimi. I did have a great time, even if King George didn't acknowledge my winking at him from the nose bleed section! : )

  23. Had my one-year post-op checkup today. Dr. says I'm as good as I ever was. Not sure if that's good or bad!!!

      Thanks everyone. I have a pretty positive attitude. I wasn't really worried about the tests or the exam.

      Stay the way you are, and that'll be good enough for us. Jen! *hug*

  24. Haven't forgotten you all. RL has been enough to keep me busy 24/7. Don't start any funny or sexy threads until I get back. : )
