Post-it Note Tuesday - Playing Catch-up Edition

This lovely little event is hosted by SupahMommy. Check out the official instructions HERE

*see note below

*Note: Mark and I have a bet to see who can reach their goal weight first. We have a wedding (thanks Nat and Sam) to attend in January and we want to be the hottest couple there. Okay, not really. Really we just want to fit into the jeans we own so we don't have to buy news ones, cause I'm super cheap like that :)

16 People were awesome enough to comment:

Lee the Hot Flash Queen said...: At least it's not dog poop you are picking up.; November 10, 2009 8:24 AM

Menopausal New Mom said...: Oh, I can so relate to trying to get the weight off by January. We are going away for three weeks and I shudder at the thought of shorts and short sleeves! I'm trying to get rid of about 25 lbs before then, wish me luck! BTW, my money is on you to win!; November 10, 2009 5:49 PM
Erin M. said...: Hi there,

I came over from Supah Mommy's MCLinky thing and wanted to say hi---I'm your newest follower.

I'm jealous you're doing NaNoWriMo. I wanted to, but...too chicken!; November 10, 2009 5:53 PM
bananas. said...: you want to be the hollest couple there?! haha. that's cute. you can DO IT!!!; November 10, 2009 5:55 PM
Michelle said...: I learned long ago not to wager on weight with my husband. Men lose weight far too easily and way too quickly for it to be fair. I wish you luck, though!

One of these days, I'll play this Post-It game. :); November 11, 2009 6:27 AM
Chelle said...: I'm so rooting for you to win the bet girl!!

Oh, and are you wearing jeans to the wedding? If so, that's my kind of party! LOL; November 16, 2009 9:32 AM
