Anyone around?

 My game is not until 3pm, so I'm just enjoying a lazy Sunday until them.   

What are you up to?






What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated. 

Re: Anyone around?

  • Our game starts in two hours.....

    I ran 12 miles this morning, then we went and ran some errands and got lunch, now we're making phone calls to parents/siblings -- so basically a normal Sunday for us:-)  It's 4pm here, so the day is mostly gone already.

  • You know where we all are...
  • I'm kind of around. Stalking Pinterest for dinner ideas before I go out to run my errands and go grocery shopping.

  • Wow Avion! What a day you've had. I'm trying to set up my FFL team for the week and then I'll get ready to go watch football at my sister's. My favorite team plays fiance's favorite team today at 3, so that should be exciting.

    We just found out that the expensive internet subscription service we ordered from the NFL network has blacked out the Dolphins-Jets game in the UK because it's being aired on some fancy schmancy satellite network that we don't get. So H doesn't get to watch the game, and he's p*ssed. Fail.

  • That sucks.

    I live in New Orleans and rarely get to see my team play, unless it's the only night game.  Last week I did, so I doubt it will happen again the rest season.      We can't get Direct TV at our apartment either.  I might have to buy the internet package.

  • I'm Steelers and he is Raiders. The Raiders have been making him sad (mostly by losing to the Dolphins) so, I will feel sad for him if/when the Steelers win. And now I knock on wood so I don't jinx us!

  • Go Avion!!  I got a profile many years ago to quit running for the Army.  Now I just fight my weight all the time.  Right now I am losing miserably.  DH, on the other hand has lost 18 pounds in 2 months.  I hate him.  I was never a graceful runner.  I was the one that made the really graceful ones look fabulous.  I have thought of trying the couch to 5k thing, not sure if the hip will cooperate.

    I burnt my right index finger this am.  Hurts like a bear.  You know, the mouse, clicky finger?  I microwaved a cup of coffee this am in Ds's Sea World mug.  It got super hot, I grabbed it, dropped it, broke it.  He is not amused.

    I am meal planning today.  anyone got any great side dishes?

    <div>Thanks!  I'm not a graceful runner either, and I'm definitely on the heavy side.  But running is one of the few types of exercise that I actually enjoy, and I've gotten in with a running group of ladies with a similar pace, and we enjoy training (we have a half-marathon in three weeks).   But yeah, my butt hurts like a mofo right now because apparently I didn't stretch enough post this morning's run.  </div>

  • I'm around!  I actually don't know where everyone is, Mica. I remember there was a mass exodus (obviously) but I don't still have the link to where.

    My game is on right now. But we look so terrible that I am pretty much trying to avoid looking directly at it.
  • NOLA - can I assume you are a Saints fan?

    if so they don't look as bad as they did the first 2 weeks..
