Terri...Im getting excited about the 29th to meet you...and your right I never seen myself going half of what Im doing...omg kayaking was so very much fun...I did it 3 times....I rode a inner tube down the river....and walked.....but most of all I felt good doing what ever I wanted to do...nothing holding me back....a friend posted to me on FB privately asking why I never did the fun stuff when I was younger....and I told him...because I was always the fattest one and to embaressed.....funny he told me he didn't remember me as that over weight...and that true beauty comes from with in....ooooo...I had to smile and remind him....since his very bad motorcycle accident which he found God after ...he is a new man....with a new look on life.....God is so good girls.....and Im sure he is watching over us all....I especially hope Diane and Mini feel his hand as they go through worrying times.....

Oh Diane...im so very sorry about your brother....but I have to say sitting here in my very quiet living room reading about your mom answering the door naked....OMG I couldn't continue to read through my tears...of laughter....hope that doesn't sound mean...I think as you seem to you have to find humor in things....God be with you hun....you are a strong woman that's for sure...you prove it time after time !!!

I chose to keep my surgery to myself in the beginning...just hubby and sister knew.....as I got closer and started to loose some weight I shared with one good friend who is very over weight and I thought Id share incase she was thinking about it for herself....mistake...she was so rude to me about it...and to this day 125 lbs gone...she has yet to say anything positive to me.........Now that I have lost the weight and ppl ask Im more then pleased to tell them with the help of the band and lots of work I did it....and I think a huge part why I didn't want ppl to know at first was....I didn't want to be ashamed if this didn't work...but im working hard and its working !!!!

hello girls...so sorry to hear about the rain some of you are having....we have had a lil every day nothing to complain about....last night my daughter and her hubby came and brought fire works over...I was worried how CJ would feel about them...but he LOVED them...he giggled so hard...we couldn't tell if he was crying or laughing some times....................I started my studing today....wow its hard after being out of school for almost 40 yrs.........but I am determined to do it......im gonna show my boys...staying in school is so worth it........though im so tired right now...all I wanna do is nap.....

hugs around ... Thank you all for your kind words and encouragment... The weater every where seems to be crazy everywhere... I hope we can all enjoy some fire works..
