200,000 and still going

Driving around looking for something to eat this afternoon for lunch and my odometer rolled around to 200,000. I was scared that the lug nuts would start springing off and the tires would just fall off, but nothing like that went down. I made it back to work. (except for the fact that I am out of gas). But i can't believe that my car is still going. (thanks to the many that have helped keep this car in such good repair.)
It is a good one and I can't imagine driving anything else right now. so it better last a while longer.
Today is going so fast. What contrast to last week. I didn't even know it was snack time and there it was 20 minutes past. Today we are having chex Mix in the small packages. They are great for my boyfriend, so i bring home a package to him.
I am really looking forward to getting to the gym today. The pool was closed for most of the week last week, so i really want to do some swimming.
This past weekend i made a chicken stroganoff in the crock pot, so leftovers for dinner tonight.
That's about it. The day has gone so fast that i didn't really have time to look around and see what;s going down.
Until tomorrow everyone.. I am out of here....
Oh, this past weekend I went disc golfing.. we found a great course. Lots of water. I didn't lose my disc but my boyfriend and our other friend each lost one. (both on the same hole) I played it safe and didn't lose mine. Go play some disc golf. anyone can play, any level.. just play...

:)

The tide is high but I'm holding on....

I am basically holding on to faith that i will get a ticket to at least one game. This morning the Rockies site had some tickets to sell, but i couldn't get my hands on even one... again. I am going to keep checking the website as credit cards are declined and some people get caught trying to buy more than 4 tickets at a time. Keep thinking good thoughts for me.

So, yesterday morning, both my boyfriend and I are getting ready to leave for work. He goes out the front door and about 30 seconds later is back in the front door kinda freaking out looking for the phone. I ask what's up and he tells me that someone tried to steal his car... WHAT??? being the nosey, no quite believing what i hear, i have to see for myself. Sure enough, someone had pulled his driver's window back, pulled the lock open and got in the car. They stripped the steering column out and left the ignition turny thing-y on the seat. We think they got interrupted or something because they didn't actually take the car...
So, this morning we had a police man come to our house and make the report.. Very scary and no one likes the idea that some stranger was right outside our home doing bad things..
icky...
We stationed all the dogs near windows last night to see if they bark at something. they didn't make a sound.
Reports and insurance issues to follow...

Get out of my dreams,get into my car

my poor car is at the doctors. I took it in last week because the back was making this god awful noise. The couple that own the shop said that they would take a look. Well it ended up being the struts. All of them are bad and the guy said that driving it felt like a "boat in the ocean" so i guess that is bad. Personally i like boats in the ocean, but i guess you car is not suppposed to feel like that. So it is getting fixed. again.

It is tuesday and i have to report that i am wearing my pedometer again. I am no where close to the 10,000 steps a day that "they" say you should be taking. but i am getting there... I started wearing it saturday and as you can tell from my post of that day, i didn;t rack up too many steps. Only about 2500.

Sunday was a little better, but not by much. i think i got it up to 2700 that day.
Yesterday i rejoined my gym and walked 1.5 miles on the tredmill and only got up to 5400...

So, today so far i am up to 3304, and that is counting a lunch time walk. not bad... and at least i am trying and at least i have a goal. everyone needs a goal.

Sugar cookies and Chocolate chip coookies are on the table for snack time today. yesterday we had individual packets of the dangerous Cheez-it crackers. I only ate half the bag when i saw the calorie count on the back and new i would just have to walk longer to work it off. Same with the cookie today.
Speaking of cookies, my sister told me that she made me some home made cookies for my parents to bring out to me.. I hope they let them on the plane. Otherwise i can see both mom and dad eating them all before boarding as to not waste them... :)

OK, back to work..
You know, if you read this you can always leave me a comment. I love getting them (thanks sis) and sometimes i even answer them back in the comments area. so check it.
