[Miss Marple]

Happy Birthday! Your cheeks don't look THAT chubby!

You are quite right, many people on here actually know me better than some of my acquaintances here in the area. (Not to mention my assorted pets.)

Just dozed off on the couch and woke up to hear Laura introducing President Bush who was commemorating the one-year anniversary of the Education Bill. Five states have submitted plans which have been accepted, and one of those states is Indiana, which I didn't know about! (Must be because the teachers union isn't thrilled with the plan, I guess.)

I am determined to get some more work done around here, so I am going to try to get away from the computer for a couple of hours.

Have a nice afternoon!

[lysie]

Whew!

[Neets]

See? that wasn't so bad??? (Besides, I find this place kinda quiet around this time of day.)

I get to leave early today to run some office errands.

Tomorrow and friday are going to be very busy days..we get our new office furniture on friday so I have to move stuff tomorrow morning and I have two meetings tomorrow afternoon.

[Pippin]

Howdy, ATRW!

Lysie, Happy Birthday!

[lysie]

Your cheeks don't look THAT chubby!

Thank you...I think. LOL :-)

[lysie]

Thanks, Pippin. Are you getting used to your new place?

[Molly Pitcher]

lysie, and Mr. M! That is some gift! WOW! And you took us along too!:-))

Mr. M., thanks for the hints on those last 4-5 #s...will pass them on to husband.

The family jungle tom-toms were working well yesterday:

Speaking to Son #1 in the afternoon, I told him about his father's good results due to diet...

A few hours later his uncle - husband's brother - called for more info. on the diet!

Which leads to another question: Can a VERY active exerciser - BIL is mountain biker and spinner -handle this diet, ie., no carbs for that needed quick energy???

Afternoon all.

Bit, thanks for those links...

AND....lysie - Love the photo!:-))

[Molly Pitcher]

Good afternoon Pippin. The sun has come out, the snow is melting. Hurray!!

[Neets]

Ok dudes and dudettes...I'm outta here...catch you later.

[Pippin]

Yep! :^)

[Pippin]

Yippie! :^)

[Kanell]

Happy Birthday lysie!!! Have a good one.

My husband was born 40 years ago today. Happy birthday to my honey!

I turn 40 in April...my mother and m-i-l are chomping at the bit for that day. They can't wait to call and rib me about it.

They think turning 40 bothers me. Ha..it doesn't...I don't think.:-)

[lysie]

I am having more carb cravings this last time I was off Atkins. I was off Atkins for Thanksgiving..a total of 4 days. This last time I was off well over one week. I expect the craving to diminish by the weekend.

Thanks, Molly.

Dr. Atkins has a chapter about the myth of carb-loading. Though he admits more study is required he states that a study was done in 1994 that found the low-carb trained cyclists performed equally as well as the high carbs.( during hugh intensity training) Also..prolonged, moderate training the results were that the endurance was greatly enhanced with the low carb cyclists. He also states that 2 other studies suggests that increasing dietary fat from 15% to 42% increases maximum oxygen consumption and endurance capacity.

And I'm heading back to the basement, where there's a whole lot of straightenin' and cleanin' goin' on.

[lepton]

brain feels like it's been whirred in a blender....

"Don't blame your gender..."

[Molly Pitcher]

Wow! Thanks, lysie. that is just the sort of info my BIL can use. The next thing husband needs is a guide to fruit carbs...He is really looking forward to eating some of those again.

"It's jello."

[Molly Pitcher]

LOL! Fell into that one. And it's one of my favorite Limbaugh/Shanklin songs, too.

[lysie]

Thank you.

What a great day to be born. Elvis, me and your Hubby. In that order. :-)

Happy Birthday Mr. Kanell, you young whippersnapper. :-)I'm 54 and doesn't bother me at all.

BTW..Capricorns are known to be perfectionists...is he?

[Molly Pitcher]

jello....jello....jellooooooooooooooooooo!

Thanks, guys...now humming it for the rest of the day...
