OY I have to get those up!


Went swimming again today! :p I got my fair exercise doing that and chasing around 4 kids that i was pretty much babysitting while their parents were there. UGH!
 
Tonight Is The Concert! Wooooo!!! I'm Leaving At 3:30 For What Should Be The Most Awesome Night!!! Wish Me Luck Girls!
 
I am so excited for you! I hope the concert was wonderful!

I've made myself a ticker on the TickerFactory website (I was so inspired by yours!), but I can't figure out what to do with it now. I cut and pasted the text into my reply box, but all I see is the text. Can you help?

Rascal Flatts CONCERT REVIEW!!!!

:) I just got back from the concert! OMG It was sooo freakin amazing! :D They are the most amazing performers and they were the sweetest guys ever! I got backstage and handed Gary my frame and Sharpie. I had bought a mat to put my meet and greet picture in, and had them sign that with a silver sharpie. When I handed Gary the mat he said "Oh what a good idea, sweetie!" lol! While Gary was getting things in order, I stood in between him and Joe Don. I handed Joe Don an envelope. I wanted to give them a small gift and instead I wrote them a letter and put it inside a thank you card and gave it to them. Joe Don took it from me and said "For us?" with this cute smile. I said "yes it is." He said "Aw thank you baby" :eek:

Ok now at this point my knees were knocking and I couldn't even believe what was going on. LOL! I'm such a dork I know but OMG it was awesome. So then I got the picture with them (which I'll post tomorrow or when I have time). Then I waited for them to finish signing and Jay handed it to me. I said "thank you so much" He said "oh you're welcome baby, anytime" Oh lord those sweet voices with that accent...and "baby" PHEW! I'm not the typical drooling fan but I think I turned into one.

Anyway the concert itself was amazing. They were the best entertainers I've ever seen! Oh man I gotta get to bed it's so late but I'm so wired! Who knows when I'll sleep! Oh I so needed this night out and it was one of the most amazing nights ever! I want to do it again and again!!! :p :) :eek: :) :p
 
:D Woohoo Amanda glad you had a great time at the concert :) :D Aw thank you baby!!! how awesome is that!! :cool: cant wait to see the pics really sounds like you had a blast
 
Hello Amanda,
I have not posted in a while, but when I saw how excited you were about meeting Rascal Flatts I had to respond! About two years ago I too had the most unbelievable pleasure of meeting them also. They were actually performing at my college. Prior to the concert there was a karaoke (sp?) contest and the two winners got to meet the headliner which was Colin Raye or Rascal Flatts. I won! But, I won the meeting with Colin Raye. I literally begged the other winner to trade prizes with me, and after a little flirting and begging he finally gave in! They were amazing! Just as sweet as you explain. It was honey this and baby that. Oh my gosh I was melting!!! I am so glad you had such a good time, and you know what? As corny as this sounds you will remember it forever! I sure do!

Hey Debbie, welcome back! Thanks for telling me about your Rascal Flatts encounter as well. They are just the sweetest guys aren't they? Aside from them being gorgeous and all the rest, they honestly just amaze me. They're so talented and really are just nice down to earth people. All too many stars forget where they came from, and are too busy to make time for "the little people." It's great to see celebrities that will take that extra bit of time (and it's even better that it's my favorite group/singer in the whole wide world) LOL!
 
Today is a strange day. It's a Monday so of course I hate being here at work. I feel like the day is going to go by sooo slowly. I don't feel like doing anything today. Normally I want to swim or fish, or something! Not today. I think maybe because it's all stormy looking outside. Hmm...I'm missing Greg. He's been gone a little over a month now. I wish I could be with him for his birthday...ah well it's the price we pay I suppose. I just think this weather has affected my mood somewhat.

The topic of weightloss...geesh I don't even know what to think about it today. I ate horrible this weekend. I feel bad about it but it was a great weekend all in all. Heck, I used to eat bad every weekend and not care anything about it. I wish I was further along that what I am. I suppose I can't complain with being over halfway to my goal. I guess I had just hoped that I'd be further than what I am. Ah well it's just one of those days I suppose. Not really a bad day so to speak but I'm just feeling kind of down in the dumps.

Although, a little pick me up is I did meet Rascal Flatts! LOL *Drool*

You know, in my picture with them..my legs seem small...why can't the rest of me? LOL! UGH!

Ok today just keeps getting worse. You want to talk about a roller coaster. I went from the best day on Saturday to the worst day today. I was already having a crappy morning. Now I'm having issues with something I purchased on the internet, and the guy is all saying how he's going to get a lawyer and blah blah blah. All this crap and I just want to go in the bathroom and cry (because of course I'm at work). Now I just found out that a really good friend of mine enlisted into the Marine Corps and leaves for bootcamp on June 28th. Oh man I hate this! :(

Ok well yesterday was a horrible day. Today is a bit more normal...thank goodness! Hopefully I can get a good swim in later!
 
Hi coaster it never rains it pours (every thing that can go wrong will go wrong all at once). It sounds like you need a big hug. Can you pack everything up for a couple of days and go visit someone that you enjoy being with? Sometimes we need to just get a breath of fresh air, and not in our own place. Tell the guy on e-bay to go jump every one seems to want everything for nothing now days. it is always hard when a friend moves away, I was telling a friend of mine that we would be moving out of this house as soon as we could, the poor thing thought we were moving away and nearly ended up in tears until I assured her that we would still be in the same area just not in this house, we depend a lot on our friends to talk to and understand what we are going through and its hard when we don’t get to talk to them when we need to. I hope you are feeling better today, go for your swim im sure you will feel better for it. I hope the rest of the week runs a bit smoother for you mate.
 
Amanda **big hugs** so sorry your having a hard time hopefully today is a little better :) i know its not the same as having your bf around but maybe you could call him and talk to him he might be able to cheer you up :) *sending you positive thoughts and hoping you feel much better soon*

Went to Julie's ball game after work. She did really well...hit one out to the grass, and caught a fly ball. Way to go kiddo. Anywho! I dropped her off at her grandma's after that and then went to the gym. I ran 20 mins on the elliptical. I decided to try the whole HIIT smiley and a few others have been talking about. I actually liked it, and boy did it make me sweat! PHEW! Then I went and did some weights. After I left the gym I did some grocery shopping, then went home ate dinner,watched tv and went to bed. It wasn't the day I had planned but I'll take it. It was good after the cookies lol I really felt great for going to the gym. My knee hurts today though. Ah well!
 
Hey Amanda glad your feeling better! :) HIIT does make you sweat i love it! and you did weights woohoo!!Keep it up girl!

Ok so not a good day for food. I rode my bike out to my brother's softball game (2.5 miles) and they had a double header. During the beginning of the 2nd game, it opened up and stormed. I'm talking POURING...I had to ring out my socks!!! :eek: So anyway, my brother's game got called and we ran to the parking lot and he threw my bike in the bed of his truck and off we went. So I was kind of bummed that I missed out on the other 2.5 mile bike ride!!! :( (cannot believe that just came out of my mouth!) I would have been good but we went out to Mugsy's (sports bar&grill) after we both went home and got cleaned up. I did have an extremely good time though. I saw a couple of people I haven't seen in a while and it was just all together a good time. (other than with Greg, I really don't get out much LOL!) I suppose that's about it for my day.

Oh yeah.... DEEEEEETROIT BASKETBALL! WOOOO GO PISTONS!
 
Sorry you've had such a crappy week. It looks like things are looking up! Keep your chin up!
(I can't believe you got a pic with Rascal Flatts! Can you smell my jealousy? :))
