TracyK

Oh... macy got to go on her very first field trip today. She was excited cause she had to bring a sack lunch with her for the picnic part of it. When I brought her to school she wanted to eat her lunch THEN...So...I ended up explaining the whole "you have to wait until it is lunch time to eat your lunch" thing. She was crushed. She wanted her pringles ASAP

By not having new tips, does that mean we are now clueless? :w00t:

Pam-when does BB start again? Soon I hope!

Cameron Diaz...I only like her in Shrek (that way I do not have to see her! lol)

Tracy-good job on sending the chiller back! Part of a shake is better than a whole chiller...I guess. Calorie wise. lol See? Laura agrees with me about the pimento cheese on the cracklins. BUT...I have no pimento cheese in the house and I have no plan on buying any, so its cool! Pamela-I wanna go see Madonna!! She is coming to Houston in November too. She is my FAV! OK, so I weighed this morning and have lost 4 pounds of the 17 I gained so 13 to go. This next week is the week before TOM and I always lose very well that week so I will keep my fingers crossed! Jane-have fun :thumbup: Have a great day violets! TGIF!

Way to go Michelle! Kat-nope, never found the shirt. It is OK, it was way too big for me anyway. I just wanted it since my mm brought it to me from Jamaica. I will just tell her she needs to go get me another one. LOL Laura-I wonder what is causing you to choke like that. That has to be a scary experience!

I know you all are right and thank you so much. I just wish I would get the flu or something... (sad right?) lol

Tracy-I got my check in the mail too.

Thank you all so much! I guess I need to cut myself some slack. I am probably being too hard on myself?! :wink2: I probably need you all to slap me around awhile.... :thumbup: Have a great day everyone.... CTCD!!!! (boy I need one of these)

Kat-I wish I would not have gained any weight while quitting smoking but it is what it is, huh?! I just do not want to tell myself it is OK to be 18whatever just because I do not smoke anymore. Truth be told I am quite down about the whole thing but I refuse to light a cigarette over it. At least I am losing some of it. I will just have to deal with it the best way I know...I just don't know how yet. Still trying to figure it out. Have a good night everyone!

Way to go Terri !! Amazing what following the rules will get ya, right? lol

18 years....

Terri-thanks for those words of wisdom! I surely needed it!

Evveryone bow your heads & close your eyes for a word of prayer...DH just went on a job interview. THIS is the one I want him to get!! Haydee-I wish I could work from home sometimes! I have the capability (and the program) to do it from home but it is one of those "if we let you then we will have to let everyone" type deals....UGH

Nope, my LBT confession sidetracked me. Glad I made YOU feel better :sad::tt2:

You should have called....I have not checked the mail in forever...I guess I need to do that before I go to work! I have not heard anything though. As long as I get the money I will be a happy camper

JUDY_I love how you have your last 10 pounds on a ticker...would you mind if I did that too? Don't wanna be branded the "idea stealer". :sad:

Kat-I am so relieved that they are OK!! Wow, I was so worried when I moved dd from a car seat to a booster seat for that exact reason. What a rollercoaster ride of emotions you must have been through! Haydee-thank you! I got my cracklins today! DH LOVES THEM!! I love them too but I only had one cause I normally like to eat mine with pimento cheese...!!! Wow, so much to say, such a short memory!

Good morning everyone, Lunasa-good to hear that you are back on track. Congrats on the no-smoking. I also quit on March 15th so I know how difficult it is. Everyone has a difference in opinion on what too tight is. I was going through what you are and I went and got a tiny unfill cause I did not wanna live on oatmeal & slimfast. It is a personal choice. Best of luck to you. Have a great day everyone...

Suzie-I will let you be the one who tries out the hot sauce on the fingers thing. Let us know if it works!! lol Judy-welcome home. Glad you had a good weekend but also sorry to hear about your cat. So sad! I feel your pain. Have a great night everyone and I will check in with you all in the morning before work. Sweet dreams!

OK...lol In my defense, I quit smoking on March 15th and have gained some but am losing what I gained...so is that considered a stall?

Hi everyone...this is like going to my first AA meeting! lol hi, my name is Tracy and I am at a plateau

The 2 animals she just HAD to see were the cheetahs and the bats?! Anyway, she cheetah'd me to death and when we got there...they had the cheetahs put away cause the people there were cutting grass and doing maintenance in & around their cage. But at least she got to see the bats. I love the giraffes too...when she saw how huge they are she said "WHOA". lol It is so funny to see the reactions on their faces when they see what the animals look like in real lifeversus TV & books. Then we went to the tiger place/abode/cage/den what ever you wanna call it. They were having a worker talk about the tigers and how old they are and where they are from, yada yada yada and then at the end he asked if there were any questions. And my little girl held up her hand and I thought OMG ...anyway, she just held it in the air really high and he said "what is your question?" she talks very softly and so he had to get really close to her and she says "what do they like to eat?". He repeated it to the audience and gave a lengthy answer to her question. I told dh (and macy) that I was so proud of her for knowing how to wait her turn and for asking such a smart question. I don't know why, it just floored me. I guess I am getting my $$$$ worth at her pre-k! Wow I sure and talkative this morning and I have only ad one cup of coffee. If I lose this post I am going to be pissed. lol Hang on, I am gonna run go get another cup of coffee real quick :tt1: OK that is better! Coconut rum...that stuff is very good! I had never had any until our weekend together. Now I know I can just run to Terrys' house and get hooked up with a drink and good company :biggrin2: (and call Haydee to join us :sad:). Just remember all violets...if at any given time you wanna come down my way you are more than welcomed to stay with me. Ok, I gotta go for a while. HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!!!
