Erin NASTY LITTLE WHIPPET

Entry I'll chase you down
Nov 10 2009 09:20


109, down two lbs this morning.  Might just be water weight, I haven't been weighing in consistently enough lately to know.  New workout schedule seems to agree with me, though it's a mental battle to do the second workout in the evening. The thought of losing my hard won muscle usually spurs me to action, though.

I have a sample of the new Supreme Protein Bar flavor at home! Cookies 'n cream.  I'm saving it for when I really want a dessert.  I anticipate that it will be delightful.

My Wish List

Gloves

Bag, free standing

Nerf bars

Hooker boots

And various books.

That's all for now.  I'll wait and see what my christmas bonus looks like before I decide anything. Will probably just get one as a little treat and put the rest towards paying off the motorcycle.

*eagerly anticipates my Sekrit Santa giftee*  I have some good ideas. ;) Be afraid. Be very afraid. (just kidding)

We are going to start the family christmas shopping this weekend.  I think we're just basically doing gifts for the kids, and we'll have like a dvd exchange with my sisters and their husbands.  Also the CPUs (that's Crazy Parental Units) plus the girlfriend.  Maybe small gifts of delicious noms for the grandparents. 

Thanksgiving will be at CMU's apartment, dear god.  I'm going to make rolls using K's mom's wombat recipe.  Main course will be roast, I think.  I hope whoever is in charge of dessert brings pecan pie.

Hee hee - I already have a wish list up on the fridge for every one.

We usually only get stuff for the kids' cousins and the grandparents.  When there are so many kids in the family - it can make you go broke!

SmileHello sweetie pie pow-puncher... THANKS FOR MISSING ME>>>>>>right back at you... listen, now I KNOW what we extra extra have in common... boxing.. I was the first woman, in 1987, to open my own training office on the floor of Gleason's on the waterfront of Brooklyn.. not easy... inthose days people ridiculed me for wanting to use boxing for exercise.. but I did get a full page in SPorts Illustrated for the work I did breaking through in the sport as a form of exercise for everyone.. and I did get into Glamour and Vogue and Self ... and on TVshows all over the world... being a pioneer in a macho sport... anyway.. EVERLAST was my first sponsor... and they created their first female gloves FOR ME... I still have the prototypes... in aqua and pink.. I have the full stand up combo speed and heavy bags thing I finally sold back about 8 years ago... and I still have a few bags of the equipment... really amazing how far the sport has come commercially... I will post a nice photo taken of me at the gym in 1988 by a SI photog... yeah.. and I did it all in my 30's... not bad for an old gal...

         I missed you too, Erin.... you have my phone etc... would love to hear your voice.. xoxoxox Bonn

 

It is great being back in my gorgeous weather, but being a NEngland girl at heart, I was at home in the bluster of NOV in Paris... ohmygoodness was it ever the most wonderful of all vacations or what!

Nice boots. Good list. I'll have to make one of my own and I think those boots are going to be on it. Except I think they may be as long as my legs.

Holy heck Bonnie I am impressed!

Sharpshootinstar - you are so organised! My christmas shopping tends to happen only after the 20th of Dec. By disorganisation, not design!
