I find it to be true, to a certain extent. I still try not to tempt myself by shopping when I'm hungry, buying bad for me foods, etc. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371953 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 16:33:49 +0000 mollycat71 371953@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Oh boy, got 5 weeks to go! The old saying goes 21 days a habit makes or something like that! LOL </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371944 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 16:24:44 +0000 GreatDane 371944@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Thanks, AV! So far, so good! They say it takes a few weeks to establish new habits, and it's been 5 for me now, so I think I'm getting the hang of it :) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371934 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 16:10:14 +0000 AV 371934@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>LOL... envisioning Mi in a little construction hat...... Hope you get some rest GD! I'm so proud of you (and you Molly) for being so good about your dietary habits!... it is hard to eat right, but once your system gets used to it, you won't even miss the "bad" stuff.... (well not much anyway!) LOL.... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371928 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:53:34 +0000 GreatDane 371928@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>He really is! Gets a bit scared and has to go hide every now and then, but other than that.... :) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371926 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:48:15 +0000 mollycat71 371926@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I am post 100! Whoo hoo! Bet Mi is a great supervisor! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371925 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:45:54 +0000 GreatDane 371925@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Yes, that's true! Mi's had a busy week. Mr. T's (the backyard neighbor kitty) humans have been building a patio in the backyard. It's been hard work for Mi to supervise from the window! Here were trucks in and out with pavers, people working and just general commotion. It looks like they're done now - Mi needs a break! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371923 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:43:44 +0000 GreatDane 371923@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Yay!!! I'm tired and I didn't have time to take a shower after my match and I've been freezing in the 72 degrees at the gym for almost 6 hours now. My nails are purple!!!<br /> And "What Not to Wear" is waiting, too! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371922 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:43:32 +0000 mollycat71 371922@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>or should I say Mi? Bobby is busy with WWM and Mr. WWM </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371920 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:42:01 +0000 mollycat71 371920@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>GD, just remember gummi bears and the boys are waiting on you! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371918 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:39:33 +0000 GreatDane 371918@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Oh no, I just looked at the time! I've still got an hour ans 23 minutes to go!!! Whiiine!<br /> AV, I'm glad you had such a nice day. The weather here is gorgeous - it must be by you, too! My day wasn't great. Started with the 7:30am phone call that one of my players couldn't play, went on to forfeit a position and then got our butts kicked by the opponents. Working 1-8 - waaaay to long to spend in this place! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371917 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:36:26 +0000 GreatDane 371917@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I'm glad you enjoyed your dinner! And the girls, too!</p> <p>I've never written down what I eat before, and it's really helping me. I try to estimate the calories in what I eat, and write that down, too. I add the calories up at the end of the day to see how I did. (all I need now is smiley face stickers!!)<br /> I've started drinking decaf diet green tea. It's supposed to be good for you and is also a diuretic, so that helps if you're retaining fluids. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371912 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:29:33 +0000 mollycat71 371912@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>AV, sounds really great! Glad you enjoyed your day! You deserve it! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371911 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:28:55 +0000 mollycat71 371911@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I bought myself a cute new notebook for that. The neurosurgeon stressed how important it will be from this day forward to watch what I eat. Watch the foods that cause swelling as it would cause my brain to swell too. I don't like salt and don't add it to things (even ask for fries WITHOUT salt). There are also some foods that effect the spinal and brain fluids but he said he didn't want to overwhelm me too much yet! My tuna helper is awesome, the girls loved the tuna juice! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/4#post-371910 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:28:21 +0000 AV 371910@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hi all, back from a wonderful day! Son drove down from Gainesville, and we put him on a plane to go visit his girlfriend in NC.... had about an hour to share a meal and catch up with him.....so glad to see that kid!... then, adjacent to the airport is a lovely public golf course, so Hubbs and I played 18.... drove home over the causeway and stopped at this little "hole in the wall" (and yes I do mean it) fish shack, and had THE BEST smoked mullet I have ever eaten!.....*sighs* can't say when I've had such a nice day!.... now for a shower, then chillin' with my book! How was everyone's day? and what's for dinner? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371907 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:25:11 +0000 GreatDane 371907@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Lol, Molly! I love fettuccine tuna helper! It's one of the few things I can actually cook :)</p> <p>It does help to empty the house of that "bad" good stuff, that's for sure! I'm writing down what I eat to hold myself accountable - the gummi bears, too. It seems to help! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371898 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:50:02 +0000 Kilroy 371898@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hi KW (waving). Did you get the photos I sent? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371893 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:38:56 +0000 mollycat71 371893@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Ok I have failed! Its creamy fettucine tuna helper for supper! What icky bad for me stuff. I am starting my surgery "diet" on monday so I am emptying the house of all the bad stuff! Guess I will suffer thru it (YUM tuna juice for the girls!) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371884 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:12:20 +0000 Kitten Whisperer 371884@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hi, Kilroy. :) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371882 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:11:07 +0000 Kitten Whisperer 371882@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>When I was growing up, the mass was still being said in Latin and the air always seemed thick with incense. We wore uniforms to school. The girls had to wear head coverings to mass. I forget what they were called. They looked like a lace doily or scarf. :) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371881 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:10:29 +0000 mollycat71 371881@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>thanks, it was a toss up between the one of wilma or betty. wilma was on my lap and looked up at me with those gorgeous yellow eyes and i had to share a pix of her first (shhhh! don't tell betty!) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371878 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:08:09 +0000 Kilroy 371878@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Love the picture of Wilma, MC. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371877 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:05:56 +0000 mollycat71 371877@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I am confirmed but I must admit, I too, have lapsed in my Catholocism. I took a class last year at the church literally a stone's throw from my house. There was supposed to be follow up with us two in the class to help re-integrate us back to the church. That part fell thru and I must admit I feel uncomfortable going to church on my own. Maybe it is because I don't quite understand it all. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371876 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:05:54 +0000 Kitten Whisperer 371876@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>It's never too late, Metsa. :) My brother decided to go back to the church and just had his boys (12 and 14) get baptized, confirmed and given their first communion in one mass. Whew! That's a lot of catching up! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371874 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:03:58 +0000 Kitten Whisperer 371874@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>What a cute thing to do. She remembers all the love and comfort you gave her after her surgery! :) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371873 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:03:24 +0000 metsa 371873@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I got as far as my first Holy communion and confession, but not as far aas being confirmed. Yet. Will have to sort that if I'm to marry in the church :). </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371872 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 14:01:44 +0000 mollycat71 371872@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>When she had tummy surgery after eating the bottom off my Crocs for work and getting a bowel obstruction I had to rub Aloe on the scar. She kept chewing at it and irritating it so the vet recommended rubbing her belly with aloe. Now when she sees me with a bottle of lotion she "throws" herself over and expects a belly rub! Of course I can't resist. Such loud purrs it gets! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371871 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 13:59:38 +0000 Kitten Whisperer 371871@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Very cute picture of Wilma, MC! I can't imagine resisting her invite to give her a tummy rub! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371870 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 13:54:13 +0000 Kitten Whisperer 371870@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>OK, you got me going about First Communion, CM and MC! I am a lapsed Catholic. I went to Catholic schools for ten years so I should know more than I now recall of the seven sacraments. After refreshing my memory with a bit of online research, here they are:</p> <p>Baptism (Christening) administered by a priest which absolves the person of the Original Sin committed by Adam and Eve thus bringing the person into a state of Grace</p> <p>Holy Eucharist (or Holy Communion) at age 6 or 7 in which a person receives the body of Christ (symbolized by a wafer of unleavened bread which has been transformed during a Mass celebrated by a priest using the words attributed to Christ at the Last Supper when he transformed bread and wine to his body and blood)</p> <p>Penance (Confession) in which the person confesses sins to a priest, asks for forgiveness and is absolved of them and performs a penance (e.g. saying prayers) </p> <p>Confirmation (Chrismation) in which a young adult reaffirms his or her commitment to the precepts of the Roman Catholic Church and acknowledges the Pope as its head. The Pope is recognized as speaking through divine inspiration (i.e. God's mouthpiece)</p> <p>Matrimony</p> <p>Anointing of the Sick (known prior to Vatican II as Extreme Unction; informally as the "Last Rites")</p> <p>Holy Orders (becoming a priest) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/16516/page/3#post-371869 Fri, 24 Apr 2009 13:53:33 +0000 GreatDane 371869@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Oooooh, I want pizza!!! That's my favorite food!!! But I'm still staying away from tomato sauce :(<br /> I had a yogurt at four and I'll have some crackers later. I'm at work, so I didn't bring much. Gummi bears after I get home! </p>
