Can't sleep...

I've tossed and turned for the past hour so now here I sit, in my recliner at four in the morning. Yawning.... Another busy week. Chelsey and Colby are really focused on college stuff at the moment. They are so excited to start the next chapter after High School!

Soooo....today marks one week without a cigarette! And I am UP 8 pounds, soooo, now I have to get serious about dieting again. If it's not one thing it's another, damn it.

3 day weekend coming up, but I am the only one off Monday in our house, so I'm just going to work and take a day off another time.

Going to Greenville tomorrow for my Mother in Law, Mary's, 80th birthday party. She said if we didn't throw her a party, she was going to throw her own.

Hope everyone has a great Friday. Love to all..

H V D!

Happy Valentines... Made a haul with Bath and Body Works stuff from Danny and the kids. They will all smell great, since I got perfume and cologne all around. Dinner in Celina and pj's by 9pm. Success!

Day 4 Dad...haven't cheated yet! Love to all

The Grammy's

The red carpet is always interesting to watch.... The talk is Whitney Houston. Wonder what Lady Gaga will show up in....last year it was meat.

Today's movie for Chelsey and I was "The Vow". Pretty good movie. True story. I'd see it again.

And yes...Danny is at work. Hopefully the roads do not get bad, and require sand, but he is out there just in case...

Off to watch tv.....Dad, I am hanging in there with your request. Love u!

Pam

So sorry...

Paul, Carla, Mlorgan Katelyn....so sorry to hear of your loss of Daddy Shy. I am with Jeannine, I only met him a couple of times, but what a cool guy. Paul....keep your chin up. The inhabitants of the FFF love you!

Busy week, non stop meetings and dinners and making Valentines as a Fund raiser for Project Graduation. Will all be worth it when I have two graduates at Speed Zone on the night of graduation, all night long, instead of out on the roads....

Off to take my sleeping pills.

Giants win it!

Great Super Bowl game....Brady kept me on the edge of my recliner till the final seconds...but he didn't pull it off. Had a great Sunday....cooking and just being at home. Love these kinda days!

Now, we have to wait until August for football fever again. Going to have to get all engrossed in some other sport in the mean time.

Have a great week all!
Love,
Pam

Deal or dud?

Ever watch Deal or dud on the news? I do....today I have had my own of sorts. Bought a Nuwave aoven yesterday at the "as seen on tv" store in the Frisco Mall. Yes...lured in by the infomercial!

Soooo....I cook roasted potatoes and squash, cornbread, chicken, steak and boundan in it and I will say DEAL. If I could have figured out how to cook the red beans in it, I would have. Nothing is greasy and all was full of flavor. Will have to let you know how it cleans up. Mom and Aunt Barbara say it's easy, we shall see. At the moment I am too full to even try and wash it!

Now...time to kill, doing laundry, before Tom Brady and the cool commercials take over our tv and afternoon....Colby just left to go help a friend clean house and get ready for the game. WHAT????? His room looks like one from the show Hoarders and he's cleaning someone elses house? Chelsey is holed up in her clean room, watching tv. Danny is awake in his recliner, for the moment anyway.

Guess I will go see what I can find to get into...it will NOT be cleaning Colby's room. He and his friends can do that!

Glad your feeling a little better Dad....and thanks Mom and Aunt Barbara for the Nuwave tips. I like it so far!

Double recipe!

Pot Luck luncheon at work....the request was Banana Pudding or Sopapilla Cheesecake so I made a double recipe of both! Also put a wagon together and bought a few baby gifts to go inside it. And was in bed by 10:30. Having a baby shower for one of my staff. His little boy, Parker Crue, is scheduled to arrive February 15th. Also have a training class and a conference call. Busy Friday, the day will surely go by fast, so no complaints here.

Jamarick, one of Colby's close buddies and one of my other sons signed a full ride scholarship to Midwestern State in Witchita Falls yesterday. Sure going to be strange when all of these kids are not running in and out of our doors...at all hours of the day and night....eatting everything in the refrigerator and pantry...sigh. LOL.

Punxawhatever Phil saw his shadow....6 more weeks of winter. If this is winter, we'll take it!

Now I am off to figure out if the wagon will fit into my car along with two desserts.

Happy Friday aal!
