Laura I would love to be a fly on the wall there one day!

ahhhhh, I remember why I should not work nights anymore. I did 5 this week, and I'm just completely exhausted. It has taken me 4 hrs to take a shower and get dressed, and my hair is still soaking wet. So I put on my "real" Levi's this am and they are snug, they did go through the dryer for an hour but I put on my Levi Signature from walmart yesterday that came out of the same dryer, and they just fit that much different. funny, and the signature's are only $20! they are already going back into shape so that is ok, but still a downer....LOL ds makes the funniest noise with his mouth he is just running around making noise this morning, noise, and yelling and chasing the poor kittens... OK is it ever going to stop raining so we can go play back outside???? I am going to a different walmart to see if they have my bathingsuit in my size tomorrow when i get my support. I'm going to have to order online and ship to store if they don't, nothing like cutting it close?

Kat - Speech therapy is the best thing I did for my son, it is paid for by the county or insurance or a combo of both, i don't know, but we just did his review yesterday and i cried to see how far he has come, but YUP.. they sound so much alike! My therapist is one of my best friends, infact after she sees ds on Tuesday she does not have her kids and that is Margarita night. LOL She has another little boy that stays at home too but summer sessions she is going to take ds with her and have pre-kgarden group sessions with them together. Although, this am, I'm going to lose my mind because he is going a mile a minute. LOL Jane, My hair was very thick pre-surgery, is still big and out of control. My straight normal looking hair is so not like that without work. Yup, color is my friens, blonde and chocolate. I might do some bright red this time too, lets see what Lisa says Monday. What i normally use moist/smoothing shampoo/conditioner and when I dry my hair Redkin Wired. so...... if that helps... LOL Tracyks - I was thinking the same thing.... I don't remember the detail of my email last night, I was so tired and hurt so bad. Anyway, I'm going to have to be to work at 7am, which means i will have to leave at 6:15... holy smokes! that is ok will be home at a normal hour 3ish and I'll still get to post before I leave and get the afternoon with my gals. My size 16 jeans were starting to get a little roomy, so hopefully by time I start work f/t the end of the month i'll be comfortably in 14's. My next goal, somewhere I can't ever remember being I also get my first paycheck, only for 3 hrs, but who cares. I caught the site super staring at me yesterday a few times... I better get up there so i can run into him a lot more! off to shower then lunch ...

Kat - that is a strange combo but will be good! DS didn't start to talk until he was 20 months and still gets speech, he is smart too smart, they are not telling me his mind is always going and trying to figure things out that he has a hard time expressing verbally because his mouth can't keep up with his brain.. Well let me tell you, when he tries you can't understand 1/2 of what he says... LOL He is my boy. Watch out Kindergarden, he is coming! ds does the same thing... boys are so much different that girls... so it is nice to read that, I've never been around little boys, our family is ALL girls

I know Maybe you would never imagine me saying this but I'm gettin" neil diamond tickets today, he is going to be here in August!

Morning gals i don't know why but i'm up, ok had to pee so just stayed up. Last year I refused lots of jobs because I say myself here, but very disappointed when I couldn't find the right job. Last night I got home from the pizza shop and was sitting here and cound not see myself doing anything. Maybe because i'm so tired or maybe that i'm just where I want to be. I love these guys that I'm going to be working with. I do not quite know where I'm going to be at the end of this year, but I know this is going to be the best experience I could possibly get and I am already meeting tons of people in the area but out of the albany job area that I would have such potential of working with. I can't wait to get to SA but it is the first vacation I can't invision myself at. It is funny, it kind of freaked me out because my mom tells me to always see doing something. So here is all I have been seeing.... there are so many things to do there that 4 days is not enough time and I want to bring the kids back! I love Myrtle Beach but because I go there I know what to expect. It is hard to explain but I'm so excited because It is something new for me. Well now that i'm done blah blah blah Kat - how sweet, brought tears to my eyes (I must be super PMS) that is really so sweet anyway - going to drink more coffee, hi tracyK

2 weeks from right now I'll be in TX waking up getting ready to meet Terry!!!!!!!!!!! It is so hard to see but my life is turning into where I worked so hard for it to be last year FINALLY

Hi gals just a quick check in, i'm so tired can't type. Worked new job and then worked pizza shop had great meetings today, got my hard hat and work cell phone. So excited Well, Michelle... you go girl well, Prizes??? i forgot that part... I was just trying to motivate myself... LOL I have to go to bed, every ounce of me hurts

Morning girls I'm so sorry I worked last night because I'm always bloated when I work but.... isn't today contest day????? 202!!! I think I started at 208 so that is -6 for me... YIPEE, I'll take it since I was sadly at 217 at one point during the contest I'm off to get ready I have a conference call for ds for kindergarden speech and a 9:30 meeting with the new job make it a good one

Hey Denise I see you... how are the girls, they must be getting so close... and how about the house???? Tracyks- I'm sorry he is really sick but I probably would have done the exact same thing... Drama queen is mentioned a lot here lol

i'm out, going to get my anti naseau meds for our trip Pam - I honestly don't have time for that starting a new job, i love my head dr but she is only there in the morning and I can't start over, she got me so far so to have to go back might kill me. I'm ok, really.... I just have family stuff going on with the step family and worked all weekend and then came home after scrubbing floors like cinderella to a messy house and I have not really eaten since last wed. And lets add soul searching on top of all that. Just not a good combo. I need out of the pizza shop and I can't do it until i have more details of my new job. I have a meeting tomorrow, which i'm nervous about because it is my first one so hopefully i'll have a better understanding of what and when then. So my meeting is on waste water and in a room with all the top guys from each place. YIKES, i'll be fine and after the first one they will be easy,

Judy - I do feel better, and since my sundress is a 14, even better, but I would love to see you in that cheerleading outfit...:smile2: I do have to say, I am a work in progress, this month has been very emotional and I think a lot of my insecurities come out from all the soul searching for my baniversary, but on the up side, I also realized what I need to do and what i need to eat. 6 months ago my dr wanted me to add crazy stuff to my diet to lower my chlosterol even more, i was now just borderline, and that was what messed me up - so i'm back to post surgery to get back on track. Overall in the last year, I have come a long way, not just weight wise, but my mental state too. I would never go out and hold my head high. The other night when I went out, people were actually able to squeeze by me and I didn't have to move to get out of their way... now that is an NSV if I do say so myself?

Kat - well I have some really nice XL tshirts that i'm going to bring, bright but not obnoxious colors, might even be comfortable while you heal. I feel the same way, I guess it is hard to see myself being smaller - I was talking to my "step" the other day and she gained a ton - she was always small and got up to 175 *my goal weight* but lost most of it the last year but is in a size 12 from 16. I told her my size change and was just so completely embarassed I let myself get to that point. I'm so proud to say i've lost almost 80lbs but to tell someone 22/24... I swore I would never get that big and I did Anyway, getting my fill and loosing again really helped want to be in onderland tomorrow for contest, but if i'm not, that is ok too, I will be for our trip and that was my ultimate goal I set for myself. Love Ya all.... can't wait to meet you in person...

Morning gals Another day, feeling a little bloated, no more margaritas for me (I only had 1 but can feel it bloat wise) I'll stick to my crystal light. Woke up feeling a little better about life and me. Terry - Where were you to kick my ass the other day. I was having one of my pitty party days where I was just disappointed in me and that I was not quite where I wanted to be. I actually am going to bring my bathing suit for tubin' that I wear to water aerobics and was not really worried about what to wear, just disappointed in me, which as you all remember from my mental days, means i think i disappointed everyone else Well, going to drink my coffee, it is freezing here, I even turned the heat on. It was only 30 outside and 50 inside this am. Going to get my nails done today, which works out, I can get them done again the morning of our trip. Made my hair appt for Monday, which may be a little soon but... can't go anylonger, it is bad, been almost 5 weeks, and my hair grows so quick i need to go every 3. I look like a skunk hope you all make it a good one KAT ... It has to get better HUGS

Kat - I have a few xl tshirts that i'm going to bring they are very nice. they would look better on me if I had a chest but I don't. and I always always wear fitted clothes. But they will probably be too big on you too

HUGS Kat tonight was margarita night, so since i have been on liquid/mushie... 1 great margarita (keri-rita - a margarita recipe from my ds's speech therapist) and I'm done.

I am doing laundry and going through clothes once again. I packed the clothes that I want to share in the bottom, going to put a towel in between them and put my clothes on top. I'll just bring my laptop bag with me on the plane which is big enough for a book or entertainment. The clothes I dont bring back will leave room for my buys

oh Judy I really do and I know my violet sisters will help me relax Starting to work will be good for me too, and away from family and the BS plus i'll get to work with guys, so maybe a little flirt now and then will help me feel better about myself.

ok, I just wanted to make sure I didn't upset anyone. That is all that is important to me. Yup, that is me, crap jobs and i can't commit to anyone or anything right now I have laundry going and i'm going to get it all done and away or gone today and pull out my suitcase and start putting stuff in there that I know I'm not going to wear before then.

Cute idea, i don't know if i'll have room. I have 1 pr of pants, i have not put them on in a while but maybe when dd gets home i'll have her take a pic, I need some motivation to get the last 25 gone. I need a good laugh NSV - i got my rings on this morning for the first time in oh..... 10 years

Haydee, thanks and a bit better, not great but better. I just don't want to offend any of you :coolgleamA: Laura, i'm the same, friday and monday is when I have to check, they will have my cell number and I will not bring my wrk phone. I'm going to try to do dishes and straighten up the kitchen, the crazy kittens are eating my laptop as I type

Morning everyone, i'm awake and drinking coffee. DD did her dishes this am so I can move forward. it is raining again but I can at least tackle something today and it is not so overwhelming. I had such a killer migraine last night by time I went to bed I couldn't think, I'm going to have my coffee and take a pill. I need to get my clothes ready for my meeting on thursday morning because I'm working tomorrow and Thurs night. I hope to have a better idea Thursday on when i'm going to start so I can give Pizza shop a time when I need to be replaced. Well I'm down to my ticker weight this morning, so that is -5lbs from my contest start weight but only 3lbs away from Onderland again, which to me is the most important thing. Hope you all have a good day, and again, I'm sorry if i said something to someone here:frown:

Michelle, glad your cat came back db acknowledged my breakdown today and actually came over to care for me for a bit, i just needed to snuggle and nap and tan, now i'll be up all night and as i type mom comes in and gets in my face asking me what my problem is and if i got off my ass and did something i would feel better. nice to know my 2 weeks of yard work and stuff has all been worth my 1 day off I f'n give up

Night everyone i'm going to bed, i have a serious headache from my deep thoughts and sadness today make it a great one!

You guys are so funny I am counting down the days, I so need to get out of here
