Topic-orama Thursday


Had an interesting day yesterday. I needed to mail a package to Candace and so on my lunch hour I drove to the post office. I spotted this little squirrel and was surprised that he was so friendly. I had to take a picture of him so I set my purse and the package down on the ground. He climbed in my purse, chewed on my phone case and then decided to hop on the package. He started to rip off the label so I shooed him away but he kept following me. Another lady did feed him some peanuts right after that. I actually was able to touch him! He did not like it but I had to since he was so close! His nickname is now Sam (I just came up with that)


As for the evening, I got my pedicure and got my toes done in Back to the Fuchsia. I tried to take a picture of my pedicure but it did not come out. I had chicken strips for dinner. Dave had a game so I was on my own. I did a 1/2 mile on Walk it Out and then watched Idol. I fell asleep before the end but found out Siohban was voted off. No love loss there. She is good but not great like Lee and Crystal.

Tonight I meet with Grace at 6:00 p.m. Should be fine. Looking forward to trying the Bosu ball. I wish the appt. was a little earlier but it is what it is. Dave has a double-header so I am on my own again for dinner. Not sure what I will have yet.

Oh I got on the scale this morning and it is already moving down from the excess sodium. It is hard to believe that you can have 5 lbs. of water weight! Either that or the *&$%#^@ Fiber One bars. Personally, I think they are evil! LOL! I had the worst gas pains from having one and I swear I will never eat one again. They do taste good but ughhhh not worth the pain. I think I will try the Bran Vitamuffins again. They were much easier on the belly. Well that is about it for now. Hope you are doing well! Until next time...

  3. Ah the semi-domesticated squirrels of Northern Calirfornia. My wife and I were walking through Golden Gate Park and the SF Botanical Garden. There was this guy that had a couple grocery bags at his feet and a couple squirrels inspecting and crawling on him! The guy looked catatonic for some reason...the things you see in SF!

    I love squirrels too...I wanted to setup one of those elaborate puzzles in the yard to watch them solve the puzzles instead of just a bird feeder.

  4. Evil, evil, evil are the Fiber One Bars! It took me eating to few of them to figure out what was causing my "problem" - ha! I too gave away what I had and won't eat them. Back to the Fushcia sounds like a perfect color!

  7. That squirrel is cute! I hear you about those Fiber One bars, I can not eat them. I do like the Kashi bars and have no problems with them.

  8. I have never had a Fiber One bar. My friend said the cereal of there's wasn't any good so I haven't tried anything else.

    That squirrel is something else. Like he is all most trained to go after the wallet.

  9. Sodium is evul I tell ya! ;) I too experienced a drop in weight due to excess water.

    The squirrel is just too cute!! :)

    I have tried Fiber One bars and I don't mind them. However, I take fiber supplements.. they don't seem to give me quite so much gas.

    Have a fantabulous workout! :)

  18. Well, that is just the cutest thing. My squirrels run for their lives when they see me coming. lol

    Fiber One bars give me the gas ... yuck. I think it's the inulin fiber that they use that causes it. I don't eat them anymore.
    There's a recipe in the Eat Clean Diet Cookbook for Cooked Oatmeal bars that's pretty good.
    If you don't have the cookbook and want the recipe, just shoot me an email and I'll send it to you.
