IMHO - She doesn't need a room - she lives on campus - stay on campus and come and get your shit... Plain and simple - if she can't help then forget her - she's going to need you before you are going to need her.. I assume her stuff is packed - so texted her to come and get it - you aren't moving it.. I know how you feel in one of my moves - Joseph Daddy just dissappeared - I moved everything by myself - Well my Uncle did come w/a big truck for the furniture - but it was me and him who moved the furntiure but the rest of the stuff I did on my own - Joseph was 5 I remember that night when we were done - going to my Dad's for dinner and realizing that the only thing I had fed him was a beef stick and a soda.. What a bad mother I was.. (not really he never complained) You are tired stressed have the pity party...

Good thoughts being sent..

Apples - Glad DS going to go do something fun - sounds like he needs it.. What is the chipolte/chicken dish sounds good - whats in it..- I have run out of ideas on food - I guess I just don't know what to eat lately - after 2.8 yr of fish - I am a little burned out on it and my one pot wonders My dinner wasn't the most nutritious (no veggies but had salad for lunch) but w/pt shake it was about 25 grms pt and if I had - had a real meal - it would have been about the same - Yep great minds - great taste buds :0) Julie - Glad you got some rest - I'm with you not to artistic even though I want to paint - that's what I really want to do if I ever retire - I am good at copying things - but don't have alot of patience - so whatever it is has to be done fast Well you and i would make a great pair singing - I can't either but love too Laura - Hugs on your Dad - This is just so tough on all of you - Hope the beta & goldfish aren't in the same tank.. You know a beta will eat the goldfish.. Glad you had a good time w/your Mom.. And Yes you have a GREAT DH... Joyce what a cutie - Angel has a little apricot on her ears not much - she's totally white - she got a bath after that picture. Linda - I was just shocked that a total stranger would make a comment - Ya it made me feel pretty good - but the pic doesn't show all the bags, wrinkles etc - but I am trying not to focus on that and just take the complement - I wanted to respond - well if you saw me in real life you would see the wrinkles :thumbdown: but I didn't - I do know how to take a complement - just said thank you ...

Good Evening Gang.. You guys are too sweet to me - going to give me a big head :00 - That's the outfit I got when Phyl & I went to Cabazon.. Steph - are you completely unfilled??? I don't remember - if not why don't you take the time to take care of you and get some taken out.. You can't live this way... Hope you enjoyed your day w/Jeff - Ya I know about disliking some pple.. I had one of those today... Phyl - Busy as usually - Leaving Thursday - Earl's bday is on Friday the 9th right?? It was a beautiful day today wasn't it or should say it still is ;0) Not going to the gym tonite - just too pooped - but go tomorrow and Friday - it's my only furlough friday in April - Heck I have had the last 3 friday's off (counting this on comming up) don't know how I am going to work 3 full weeks til my next furlough day.. Food today - 1/4 pt drink - 2 oz of pork tenderloin for bf - lunch 2 oz of pork & salad - dinner who knows something w/lean hamburger.. I guess I am going to have to go chase Karri down on FB to see what's up w/her.. Karla - how's your moving going... It's it about time to take a break - you are getting your exercise girl..

Good Morning Gang Apples I hear you on the brain issues - mine is sorta dead too - but I'm still working on my coffee. Hugs you need some regular days - ones without issues - Praying that you get some - You have had tons on your plate lately.. Yep that's the thing about living in the Desert - we have flowers year round and green grass.. I bitch and complain about the summers - but I will take it any day over your snow :0).. Well just a quick ck in - not much to report - dinner last night was big bag of popcorn & pt drink - didn't feel like real food but did get my pt in.. Well off to the showers - another busy day at work - Happy Tuesday to all - hoping you all have a great day without any issues.. Hugs & Love to you all

Good Morning Gang.... Karla - you are far from a slob... Come on girl... Positiveness!!! But I hear you on making it clean cuz the you half ass know the buyers ;0).. Picture doesn't show all the wrinkles, saggy skin etc - that's why I love it... It's who I think I am in my head.. Ya right Andrew doesn't look like me at all, he really looks like his Mom but everyone says he looks like his Dad.. Well dinner last night wasn't nutritious - popcorn (big bag) and 1/2 of a pt drink (which was 16 oz) - so I did get my pt - just wasn't in the mood for real food.. Well off to the shower - another busy day at work - Hope you get all that you want to get done today... Ck back when I can... Hugs & Love to all...

Hey Gang !!! Apples glad to hear DS is on the mend... Yep you need a week or 2 without any issues :0) Hugs !!! Lets' make it a year :0).. JoJodisco - how are you feeling today Mommy - I know a few pple who have gone to Mx to get banded not an issue - the issue is finding a doc to give you fills if you can't travel back to Mexico to get them - they have Fill Centers USA - they do them for the pple who where banded in mex.. As to your bmi - it's 30 now - most of us where a lot higher - mine was 42.something 250 5'5 - I lost 112 lbs - so you need to lose 25 lbs - If it takes 900 cal for you to maintain 140 - even with the band that's not going to change - I eat about 1200-1600 cal daily and exercise 3-4 days a week - cardio & weight training and I am able to maintain 138-143 weight.. We don't keep our bands so tight that we can't eat - we just eat smaller portions - and we can still consume 3000 cal if we choose too - we can eat around our bands w/no problems - the band doesn't restrict things like ice cream candy - gravy butter etc - it stops you from eating an 16 oz steak .. 2Plus4 - Welcome - come jump right on in !!! Eva - Love your Cakes - Yep the flowers are in my back yard - thought I would send my girls - Easter Bouquets :0) Great - Sorry I missed you - Enjoy and relax.. Julie - I bet you are just overtired from all that work you have done - hope you get some sleep.. Laura - I need to come and kick your sil butt.. Hell I have a family of picky eaters (Joseph Andrew & Kaitlin) Me & Melissa will eat any and every thing and Brooke is right behind us.. I always have cheese & refried Beans for my Kaitlin so that if she doesn't like what we are eating for dinner she can fix a burritto or baked potatoe.. pple just don't understand that kids have taste too - they don't like everything .. When Joseph was little we would go to mex restaurant - he would order pork chops - So if you every come to my house - Nelson will have something to eat Is your sil big or small or just a b.. Ok I forgot who has a dog like angel - and doesn't know how to attach picture - she's suppose to be 5-7 lbs and she's 10 lbs - She's her mama's baby.. To attach a pic - hit reply - scroll down till you see manage attachments - click on that - then click on browse and go to where your pics are - click on the one you want then click on up load.. Joyce - I wouldn't want to be on that trial - but I don't mind a 3-4 day trial - I wouldn't want a murder one at all.. WTG on food choices - Yep as each day goes by and each new situation comes up you will learn how to deal w/them - being prepared and planning is the key.. LauraK - thanks for the complement - I took the pic of the flowers for you all yesterday morning and when I down loaded them to computer - Andrew's bday pic where on there - forgot all about them - and it's from that pic - I will be posting at the bottom of this note - it's a really good pic of us even if I do say so my self.. Linda - Thanks too for the props about me and my Andrew - yep I think he's handsome - but again he's my grandson ;0) He's not tall enough to be a model - he got his grandma & mom's short gene ;0) Well gang - it's 8:10 and I still have groceries to put up - had to go after gym cuz Andrew didn't have anything to eat (junk but not to worry it's nothing I want or eat) and I don't know what I want - not really hungry.. Yesterday went to bed bath & beyond got new bedspread (quilt) and so cleaned my room - then had the little EQ - for me it wasn't about much - was a good roller one but nothing bad - but my DS MIL lives in El Centro (not far from the epicenter) she lost her tv and some crystal and drywall has some cracks at the seams - she lives in a 2 story house - but everyone is ok.. Work is work still not any better - and I didn't sleep well last night either - so I am signing off.. If I missed you wasn't on purpose - Love to you all

What's up gang - quite today For those of you who don't fb (candice - karla) Here's s pic of me and andrew on his bday 3/18 Back from the gym - then had to go buy andrew food - I'm pooped - not really even hungry - don't know what to fix for dinner - cbl I still got food to put up - I hate that part of grocery shopping

Drive by post before I get caught I don't know the name of them (roses) I just bought them last yr at Home Depot - need to go get 2 more... Yep we had a shaker yesterday - Joseph's MIL lives in El Centro - 20 or so miles from Calexico - she lost her tv some crystal and cracks in the drywall (where taped I think) but everyone is fine.. well I am going to get caught - will catch up after gym tonite. xoxoox Janet Candice silly girl - I know you are tight in the mornings and you couldn't eat that... Silly girl... I just read woke up thinking about turkey - I thought oh know I know what's coming next

Oh forgot - here's pic of Angel & Ryder sunning themselves while I was in the back yard yesterday

Good Morning Gang... Hope everyone is having a nice Easter - Enjoying your church services (me watching on t.v. ;0) Apples - Hugs how's your DS doing - How are you doing - Can you call the doc yourself .... Continued prayers... Julie - I know you are busy today - but a good busy - Enjoy Yep 10 commandment great movie for Easter.. I recorded it too cuz I went to bed around 10ish and the movie wasn't over till 11:44 - so will watch it again today... Making pork tenderloin (bbqing) asparagus and maybe some potatoes.. Have talked to DS & Family this morning - wishing them Happy Easter - Now off to get dressed and maybe go to Kmart and get a bike - $79 in the ad today for a beach cruise...

Happy Easter !!! Easter Flowers for you all

Jojodisco You found buddies here - just come back - are you walking are your taking your gas x strips - Ya you have restrictiion that's why you got the band - you have to get use to that mentally as well as physically - it's an adjustment - you are use to eating more - you want to eat more - but with the band you can't.. Walk walk walk and gas x-strips - the only time I said wth have i done was when I woke up from surgery .. 112 lbs lighter now a days - have maintain the weight loss for almost 2 yrs now (7/10 will be 3 yrs banded) Feel 10 yrs younger and have 100% more energy... Give it time in 3 yrs you won't even remember this discomfort...

Happy Easter !!!

Watching the 10 Commandments - Sorta an Easter Tradition for me ;0)

Hugs on your slip Glammaw - I have read/heard that an unfill will help the band go back in place.. As to gaining - just be careful - eat healthy -

Karen - Hugs - Prayer being said... Like Phyl says not your fault.. He's young - he will be fine - you guys have all of us sending our love & prayers to you !!!! Safe trip and keep us posted when you can.. Julie - OMG girl - you are one busy lady - all that cooking !!!! I'm pooped just reading it...

I'm here... Went to Big Lots - ya spent $$ on I don't know what - dog treats - candles - bug spray - sprayer - vase - runner - vit e oil - nail polish - that's all I can remember - The have some nice furniture cheap and shark steamer 50 and a big grandfather type clock $129.. Went to Target go bug spray for my roses - aphids and fertilizer and Andrew a Choc Easter bunny for tomorrow - but when I got home no bunny (and yes I didn't buy me one ;0) That's what I hate about they way they bag at my target.. Sprayed my roses bug soap & fertilizer ate some popcorn then Andrew came home and wanted to go to big lots - target and lunch - So got dressed and off we went Lunch sucked - ordered enchillada - cheese was real rubbery - had 2 bites and that was it.. Came home watched a little t.v. then decided to color my hair - well - think it's a little too dark - last time it had more reddish - this time just golden brown base - we will see may be coloring it again tomorrow - Did myself tanning - and unloaded the dish washer - Karla - I would not have worried about the top of the cabinets - I would wash then fronts but on top - no way.. Sure glad you got a new friend - the are important - you need to get out more.. I'm not big on hot dogs myself - do like the Costco ones w/sauerkraut but haven't had one of those in years - but there weren't alot of choices $7 for a salad - pre packaged and the dressing alone would have been more calories than the hot dog.. Food today - 1 egg and 1/2 of those new bagel thins (110 calories for the whole thing but I only had half) popcorn - couple chips/salsa - 2 bite of my enchillda and that's it - don't know what I am having for dinner - was going to make salmon but don't feel like cooking - so most likely my leftover 1 pot wonder from the other night.. My GF Candy knows I'm not a big gambler - so we are suppose to go about once a month.. Not doing anything for Easter either - send kids cards and the GD's some $$ - it's just me and Andrew - he's getting a card w/$30 and a Reese's pb rabbit.. Making a pork tenderloin (it's marinating now) asparagus and maybe some mashed potatoes tomorrow for dinner.. Got the 10 commandments on - it's an Easter tradition to watch Phyl is out to dinner - Candice is most likely sewing - or wasn't she going out tonite?? Steph is selling popcorn - Karri most likely working ... Kari has left us - on FB saw that she was sick Denise - must be coloring eggs w/dh ;0)

Good Morning Gang... Melissa - We can love someone before we meet them - That's why when we do meet in person - it's like seeing an old friend you haven't seen in a while... Yep girls Melissa sounds like a teenager :0) - Very Very nice voice.. Yep this next week is about you and planing. Jewel - Have fun with your bro ;0) Congrats on the 40 lbs!!! Julie - Congrats on DD engagement - I agree glad it's 6 months away - who knows this may work - we will all keep our fingers crossed and prayers - Sorry for the snow - it's 80 here ;o) Karen - Love the cake - you are the hostess with the mostess.. Since it's just me and Andrew this yr for Easter - no eggs or cakes - got him a card - may get him a little Easter basket today - Sent the other family cards (girls got some $$$ and thongs (undie) she wanted them DIL wasn't thrilled with the idea of her 15 yr old wearing them - but hell she's not boy crazy and they are the undies of most kids now a days - so her LaLa got her some ;0) Clag - Yep as each day passes you are going to feel better - I was operated on Tuesday and by Friday I was feeling great and I was 52 .. And like Phyl said - we forget - it's like having a baby - after a whiile you forget the pain - but I remember the shoulder gas pain - I made homemade broth - it taste so much better than the canned stuff...

Good Morning Gang Karri - Hugs - I saw on fb you are now an english teacher and that Lee helped you out yesterday - yep you have a keeper ;0) Karla - I got rid of stuff before I moved 6 yrs ago - started out fresh in the new house.. Phyl - Steak sounds good I had a hot dog at bingo (didn't win) - no bun just the hot dog - then as we were leaving they have an ice cream parlor - had 1 scoop in a cup of pineapple coconut - it was to die for.. Candice - Hope Peter's feeling better - I like your explantion on the contacts - Don't think this pair is working - never got to costco yesterday - and my doc was leaving and won't be back til Thurday - I can read and see but not well.. No great plans for today - got home 11 last night we played video poker after bingo - I put in $20 - played for an hr and cashed out $9.75 so not bad... Well need to move it's 9 - didn't go to the gym this a.m. slept in til 7 - but I did go yesterday - so I am not feeling bad about it... Don't know what I am doing today - Big Lots opened up - and Janelle (andrew's wanta be cuz ex-neighbor girl his bff) works there she gets 25% discount - so if there are any big ticket items I want - I will have her buy them for me - Big Lots is like a Dollar Tree 99 cent store - but things cost more than a $1 - they have stuff like hoover carpet cleaners - and the normal junk.. Read on FB that Steph is kettle corning if the weather is ok..

Well you have done more than me - I'm dressed waiting for gf to pick me up for bingo - besides cleaning (which was a lot in it self) - paying bills - gym - I haven't done much - really wish I wasn't going to bingo - I'm pooped - been up since 5:30 and knowing Candy she will want to gamble after bingo - $40 buck will be my limit - then we are going home.. I have never looked into beading - didn't know it was so expensive - glad you got out of the house for a while.. What's for dinner?? I'm hungry... All I have had is popcorn your chili sounds good right now.. Talked to Melissa from mentor thread - she sounds so young.. she 30 something but sounds like her 20's.. Candy's here - bye chick !!!

Laura - Beautiful - my back yard faces west - so I rarely catch the sunrise - but get the sunsets.. Glad you are w/your family - enjoy... Apples - Hugs on the stones - it seems like there should be some kind of meds you could take to prevent them.. Well off to play bingo - cbl

Taking a break - replaced the 2 air filters for the a/c and washed the grates - omg I HATE HATE HATE HATE - did I say HATE that job... 6 row on each to wash at least 3 time - well if I cleaned the air filters more often I guess it wouldn't be such a job.. The only problem iwith these contacts it's a week between each fitting a pain in the Arse... I don't think anything here's closed but again I haven't been anywhere - cleaning that's about it for me.. The reason I want contacts is I am tired of always having to have readers on the tip of my nose
