Didn’t lose that 20 pounds over the summer like you’d planned?

Posted by Erin (and sometimes The Todd) on Aug 31, 2009 in Erin's Diatribes/The Todd's Tastes, Unfiled Stuff

I’m so with you, sister! I can’t tell you how frustrating it is to see the same number on the scale I started with on June 1. I ran into my girlfriend Toni a month ago–we’d worked together in radio about 14 years ago–and the woman has turned into a shadow of her former self! Toni lost 45 pounds 4 years ago, but more importantly, kept it off. So, she sent me to her people who helped her lose the 45 pounds. I started Total Trans4m 20 days ago and have lost 7 pounds already! The main ingredient is Phaseolamin, which is an extract from the white kidney bean. It essentially acts as a fat and starch blocker, and an appetite suppressant. My first thought was that it wasn’t working because I wasn’t all buzzed out and jittery the way one usually is on diet stuff. It’s drug and stimulant-free, and it’s WORKING! Frankly, I’m still more interested in the fact that you can keep the weight off after stopping the stuff. If you want to join me, the girls over at Total Transf4m are offering a deal: 50% off if you mention “Erin” when you order. A month’s supply is usually $80.00, but you can get it for only $40.00! That’s just a little over a dollar a day! Any of the girls who answer the phone are using the product or already lost their weight on Total Transf4m, so they can answer all of your questions. You can check out the website at http://www.b987.com/ keyword “diet.” Give ‘em a call at 888.315.3779 to order and ask questions. They’re very nice and won’t torture you with a hard sell. If enough of us order, it would be fun to do this together, and I’ll come up with some cool rewards for weight loss. Let me know what you think!

A note from my girl over at the Coupon Project…

Posted by Erin (and sometimes The Todd) on Aug 31, 2009 in Unfiled Stuff

“Thanks so much for referring to my post! You know what outrages me just as much as increased prices? Food shrinkage! I was a little bummed that all five boxes of my cereal could fit into ONE Safeway plastic bag!! AYE.Check out my Albertsons deals, too. You can score Post cereal for $0.50 each through Tuesday, too. These are both terrific stock-up deals. Since I started couponing, I realize that I won’t spend more than $1 per box. You can easily do this by paying attention to store sales and using good ol’ coupons!!” Check her out: http://www.thecouponproject.com/the_coupon_project/

The Maine problem with Staycations. A rare post from Todd!

Posted by Erin (and sometimes The Todd) on Aug 30, 2009 in The Todd's View on Things

These turbulent financial times mean that we, too, are staying close to home. We’re doing a lot of cool things that we might have overlooked in years past. We’ve been to Red Butte Gardens concerts…the Museum of Natural History…more Farmer’s Market visits, etc.

But, what is REALLY harshing my mellow this summer, is the fact that we are not going back to Maine. My family has a cottage on a lake there, that I’ve been going to since I was 12. The trips have always been more like a military exercise with the twins–the flights, the rental cars, and such. The cottage is small and the lack of privacy prevents most efforts at romance. But, it’s the reality of standing on the dock–the familiar humidity, the smell of the sweet ferns and pines–that sets me at rest. Our sons love it so much because it’s breakfast, followed by a full out run off the dock and into the lake. (It’s the same after every meal.)

Then there’s the simple joy I get from showing Erin my old stomping grounds, like a hidden light house on the coast, protruding from some barnacle-encrusted rocks in the stormy Atlantic. Or, introducing her to the descendants of the loons on the lake that I knew from my childhood. Maybe it’s the taste of the winter green growing on the forest floor…it all makes me feel proud to share it with her. (Erin also likes the fact that the state is crawling with lobsters. And I mean that literally.)

On every trip, I will find myself alone at some point in a canoe…floating in a pond surrounded by pines and sugar maples. The air is still. The water, calm, and covered with lily pads in bloom. Dragonflies perch on the fragrant petals. The fishing rod in my hands is at rest, as I have one of those moments that tells you: I remember this. I understand this, and I could not be happier than being here–right now.

The boys and Erin will miss Maine, but we keep the family activities fun, so they’re having a great summer, like I am.

So, on this year of “staycations” I have much enjoyed the task of walking my older brother Scott through the adventures of learning to fish those lily-covered ponds, via long-distance charges. Which is a little like telling somone how to make love while you’re serving a life sentence at Point of the Mountain. Scott’s joy gives me great satisfaction and his pictures bring me closer to him and my memories of Maine.

There will be more trips to Maine, and I look forward to them already. We all have those places, near or far. And we should never give up the passion of the thoughts and feelings that draw us there.

Hey, Hey, HEY! It’s not your birthday!

Posted by Erin (and sometimes The Todd) on Aug 28, 2009 in Erin's Diatribes/The Todd's Tastes

It required moving out of Utah and working in radio elsewhere for a decade to realize that we in the Mountain West are a collective group of gropers.

Not in a really bad way–usually–but I still remember moving back from Virginia and getting trapped in a headlock of a hug almost immediately. And that was from a gas station attendant. I got back into the grope-ey kind of mode and was fine with it until I had the twins. Every mother will agree with me here. Your children paw at you. They hang on you. They head-butt you and split your lip with all the fond affection of a professional wrestler. And you let them.

But the continued mauling from my Zachie and MacLean has made me much less willing to let anyone else touch me. I realized this yesterday when I was filming a commercial for something called “Nutriflakes” (all I can tell you is that it has 53 essential vitamins and minerals, that’s the only thing I can remember from the script.) The director took one look at me and hissed to the makeup artist, “trowel on the concealer!” He then jabbed at a couple of wrinkles around my eyes and said, “what about THESE?” with the same tone you’d use on a bag of chicken that went bad in the bottom drawer of the fridge. They discussed the distressing issue of my Sharpei-like countenance as she shoved me into the makeup chair and had at it.

I usually ignore this part…but there was something about the way she was jabbing the mascara wand that made me wonder I was going to keep the vision in my left eye. I finally seized it away and with a big, fake smile said, “I can do this and save you some time!” I got through wardrobe and onto the set where the sound guy promptly shoved his hand down my bra. “Hey, hey, HEY!” I slapped his hand, “back off! It’s not your birthday!”

Exasperated sigh–”I’m TRYING to position your body mike.”

“I know that!” I hissed, “I’ll do it myself!”

This immediately showed the crew what a RUBE I am. Every cool, with-it tv person lets staff swarm over them like bees, picking, tucking, nipping and clipping. I then reared back like a startled horse when the director came at me to kiss me on the lips. Lip-kissing is another big tv thing. The Todd is pretty much the only person I like to kiss my mouth…which is also unfashionable because two of the girls on set tried to lip kiss me goodbye, too. The security guard went to hug me on the way out.

I was wiping off the worst of the foundation/blush/silly putty mixture when The Todd came home. “How did it go?” he asked, leaning in for a kiss. I’m pretty sure I looked like a King Cobra ready to go after a mongoose. “Don’t TOUCH me!” I shrieked. “Back off, Mr. Roaming Hands and Rushing Fingers!” (Editor’s note: that was a reflex shriek from something they made us practice in Young Ladies Club, w

here if a gentleman made an untorward advance, we were supposed to tartly reply, “You’ve got Russian Hands and Roman Fingers, and I don’t like foreigners!” Miss Delores will be delighted to know that her efforts were not in vain, particularly since I spent most of my time in Young Ladies sniggering at words like “untorward.”) The Todd went into a kind of a crouch and backpeddaled away from me like a hermit crab in the middle of a seizure.

It’s not that I don’t appreciate genuine affection…but all this kissy-gropey-huggy business is ruining me for the real thing–sweet kisses from my Zachie, the scream and neck-strangle-hug from my MacLean, and the long-armed all-enveloping embrace of my dear husband. You know, the same one who’s now flinching back protectively every time I walk by.

Old Navy Weekly Site Navigation Clues

$10 off $50 – On the bottom left, you will see a sign that says “Item of the week” – below that you will see a sign that changes and says “text updates” and “special offers”. Click it when it says “special offers”. A question will appear, asking what the item of the week was last week and click “cargo pants”.
Buy men’s & women’s item, get 20% – Click on Kelly’s blue & white sweater twice (on left side w/blonde hair)
