Whimsical Reflections...: May 2006
http://michellehopp.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 19, 2006. A few minutes later, she starts bracing against me, possibly trying to get me to move even further left. I can't, not unless I want to end up standing on top of the nice lady to my left so I hold my ground and resist her brace - all this while I continue reading as though I hadn't even noticed her. So TTC cow, if you're reading this, know that I think you're absolutely despicable, and the next time you try that shit - I AM going to tell you what an inconsiderate PoS you are. By now ...

Whimsical Reflections...: September 2006
http://michellehopp.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 29, 2006. November 4th, please mark your calendars :). I've got to set some time aside to work on the invitations, but I think we may have narrowed down a date for our housewarming. Wish me luck that I don't have to work that weekend! Should be a good time, plus we won't have to turn on the heat that day. ;). Posted by Michelle Hopp at 8:12 AM. Wednesday, September 27, 2006. These past two weeks have been so crammed full of stuff [mostly work] that I feel I've been living under a rock.

Whimsical Reflections...: October 2006
http://michellehopp.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 31, 2006. I'm not big on Halloween. I don't like ghosts, witches, monsters or evil looking things. Basically I just don't do scary, period, so that being the case I've been predisposed to avoiding halloween festivities in the past. this year I went so far as to get myself a friendly looking scarecrow that has a huge smile on his face and bounces around when you tap him on his head, but that's been about it. Posted by Michelle Hopp at 12:53 PM. Monday, October 30, 2006. Here are some befo...

Whimsical Reflections...: Of grandmothers and great-aunts
http://michellehopp.blogspot.com/2009/01/of-grandmothers-and-great-aunts.html
Thursday, January 08, 2009. Of grandmothers and great-aunts. I'd blogged a while back about Auntie Mavis visiting us for a weekend, and of her visit coinciding with Gran's birthday. Here they are enjoying breakfast with us at Cora's. Love this pic. These are two of the dearest souls on the face of this earth and we love them dearly. Posted by Michelle Hopp at 8:50 PM.

Whimsical Reflections...: Nutritional Changes - Week 1
http://michellehopp.blogspot.com/2009/01/five-days-until-my-self-imposed-weigh.html
Saturday, January 10, 2009. Nutritional Changes - Week 1. Five days until my self-imposed weigh in. still eating whatever I'd like, that includes chocolate and fresh fruits and veggies. Also, continuing my commitment to push the plate away when I feel full, nevermind how tasty it is, if I'm full. I stop eating. Haven't done too well in the water department, still need to find a way to make myself voluntarily down 6-8 glasses a day. I've picked up some. Seven Seas Cod Liver Oil Capsules. Ah sweet, sweet d...

Whimsical Reflections...: June 2006
http://michellehopp.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 29, 2006. I'm a bit stressed today. A few things have contributed to this, it appears that while our group looks for a replacement for a co-worker that's leaving, most of her stuff is going to be piled on to me. I've told everyone my vacation is not negotiable, I'm taking a few days at the end of July and the latter part of August, I've sent my boss a detailed list of the days I plan to take off. Something tells me though that it's going to be a tough fight for August. :(. I went to the la...

Whimsical Reflections...: Knew it!
http://michellehopp.blogspot.com/2009/01/knew-it.html
Tuesday, January 27, 2009. Tipped the scale at 154 this morning, no change from last week, though after the weekend I had I should be thankful it wasn't a worse reading. Work's beginning to get really insane again as we approach the end of another quarter at our much loved financial institution, fun! Which means if eating less doesn't help, the stress sure will. Tune in again in two weeks, next weigh in is on February 10th. Posted by Michelle Hopp at 8:14 PM. View my complete profile.

Whimsical Reflections...: Miss Piggy
http://michellehopp.blogspot.com/2009/01/miss-piggy.html
Monday, January 26, 2009. Ugh Not so sure about tomorrow's weigh-in. :(. Jeff and Michelle spent the weekend at us and I've basically been feasting for the past three days. Michelle made this awesome cream cheese/chocolate ball served with cookies, I think I put away quite a few pieces of that. Too many pieces that is. BUT I did have fresh fruit, granola and yogurt for lunch today so maybe, just maybe 153 isn't toooo much of a stretch. I guess we'll have to wait and see what tomorrow brings.

Whimsical Reflections...: July 2006
http://michellehopp.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 26, 2006. Signed, sealed, delivered! Okay, maybe signed, sealed and enroute to it's destination is more like it but good-fricken-bye to the regulatory return and hello camping! We leave for Algonquin. Tomorrow for four days of fun in the sun, and if you couldn't tell by now - I'm pretty excited. As part of the trip we're also planning to do some Geocaching. Kev got an early birthday present from my family yesterday, it included a bear knife. Yes, you read that correctly, a bear knife.

Whimsical Reflections...: Weigh-in #1 - one pound lighter.
http://michellehopp.blogspot.com/2009/01/weigh-in-1-one-pound-lighter.html
Wednesday, January 14, 2009. Weigh-in #1 - one pound lighter. I guess it's a good thing that I didn't set the bar too high, my goal for the first two weeks was one measely pound. Jumping on the scale this morning, it was mission accomplished! Whether that has anything to do with the fact that I've been sick these past few days I'm not sure, but either way I'll take it. :). So as of today, 154 lbs. The next weigh in will be on January 28th, target weight for that weigh in is 153 lbs. It was all part of ou...
