all my fingers & toes are crossed!!!

Laura-I have a Rx for it. I am going to get it filled some time next week probably. Expensive little suckers! I am not going to set s specific quit date until I start taking it. We can do this!!!

Good morning violets... I called in sick today (cough cough sniffle sniffle) Truth is my body hurts from the move...I still have loads to do as well. Name my band...hmmmm. Maybe Chuck...since that is what it makes me do all the time. LOL. I will need to think about it for a while. Well, I need to get up and get busy. Laura-good for you chunking the candy. I gave mine away yesterday! Have a great one violets. Terri-so glad to see you back, we really missed you!

Good morning violets- Well...I lost a pound. Not bad considering most regular folks gain over the holidays. I am very relieved!! When the alarm went off this mrning I said "oh you have got to be joking...." Laura-Love the B&A. You lok GREAT!! Have a great day everyone!!

YEEESH....am i tired or what?! We are all moved in. No, the boxes are ot all unpacked but at least they are here. Macy will be at my sisters house this weekend so I plan on taking it slow & steady. I need to go thoroughly clean the empty house> YUCK!!! Thanks for all the well wishes for the move. It rained the whole time....figures. But it all ended up OK. I finally get to weigh tomorrow and quite frankly I am SCARED to death! I have not stepped on a scale since the 16th. Pamela-your dream cracked me up!!!! Goodnight all.....wish I did not have to work tomorrow!!

Good morning violets....gotta run and pack more. The movers will be here in 90 minutes.... I will check in once our internet and everythig is hooked up. maybe this evening? Hope you all had a great Christmas!

Loved loved loved that "Twas the night before Christmas".....thanks Pammie ((((hugs))))

MERRY CHRISTMAS VIOLETS!!! It was so much fun watching Macy this morning. She is psyched She got some pom-poms and she is running around the house full blast waving them around screaming "watch mom & dad, this is what the cheerleaders do".... I just now had to get up and go put on her Dallas Cowboys cheerleader outfit....LOL WHAT FUN...I just love it! Stupid me packed AND moved the camera. Luckily we had the video camera! I hope everyone has a spectacular day!

Ho ho ho violets... Macy is here coloring her placemat for Santas cookies and milk to put on it. :rose: We got about 10 boxes brought over to the new house & unpacked. Macys Dora tent that her maw maw & pop got her is all set up in her new bedroom. She loves it. It is 5' x 5' and I can even get in there with her and play. This time last year my butt woud have never fit through that little door...life is sweet! After presents in the morning, the tree will come down :rose: Then more moving is on the schedule. DH has to work tonight and hopefully he will be home in the morning when dd wakes up. Good night violets and I hope you all have visions of sugar(free) sugar plums dancing in your heads tonight! (((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))

Jenn-I am so sorry for your loss. This year I also lost my cat of twelve years and i really miss him. When I had him put down I said to myself "no more pets". They truly become part of the family and it hurts when they are gone.(((hugs))) Pamela-sounds like a good time you had yesterday! How is your back? My gosh there were so many tings I was going to say to all of you and my mind keeps wandering.... Michelle-you made me LOL when you said you told the kids that Santa doesn't come to a dirty house. GENIUS! I am going to tell Macy that :rose: I really miss not getting on the scales....the scales keep me in check. It keeps me on top of things. I like knowing where I am and being in control. Without weighing I feel like I am spiraling up. Maybe just my imagination?! I hope so. I will be able to weigh day after tomorrow. Oh, I could go and unpack the box now but I am too scared to. Everyone have a great Christmas Eve and even greater Christmas! I really love all of you!

Hi everyone! I am busy busy busy....just wanted to check in and say hello :eek:

Hi everyone- I made the trip well. My family lives and 90 minutes from me. There was lots of traffic and lots of cops out today! We had a great time. To me the best time of all is spending time with everyone. DH did not get to come with us. Work as usual. Tomorrow is the last real day of rest (aka packing) then Monday we get the keys to the new house so we will start hauling stuff over. I am really anxious to get things rolling. I have been eating more junk than usual too. Kinda glad the scales are packed :eek: Have a great night all.....

Cindy & Haydee- Thanks for the pics....I just love when people post pics The cruise sounded fun and haydee I love your tree & house! Terri-omg, your boss' daughter did definitely have a troop of angels with her! My goodness is all I can say! Sorry that you have fighting the junk monster but you are not alone! It s really hard this time of year. The new year is right around the corner thank GOD! All the cookies and fudge are wearing my nerves thin. I am going to get ready to go to moms. Wish me a safe trip because I almost got hit driving home from work Wednesday and then Thursday I had a wreck in the lane right next to me! I have never heard or seen a real wreck! The sound was deafening and I almost crapped on myself! My heart was in my throat! So...I am nervous to drive anymore! Have a great day everyone!

Hi all! Laura-YAY for you! Way to go!! Terri-I am off until the 27th. Have to go back to that ungrateful place to do inventory with the auditor. Have a great time off! Judy-thank God you are getting rid of the fudge! Haydee-I agree with a soft throw & Barnes & Noble gift card for your picky cousin! Kat-I am gonna PM you my new address. And yes, send me some books Well, I got all of my shopping done. Thank goodness for the Dollar General Store (just joking ) Now I am gonna sit back and wait for all hell to break loose when dsd and dss show up. Macy is SO excited that she gets to open some gifts tonight! Those kids are gonna be wired:omg: Have a great evening & weekend everyone! (((((hugs))))) OH OH OH....I finally tried on some jeans that had ZERO elastic and ZERO stretch in them and I actually zipped up and buttoned a size 14....snug, but they did fit!! I am so happy!

Thank you all for the kind words about the bonus situation. It means alot to me to know that you all care about me. The money would have really helped out but it is the principal behind the whole thing that bothers me the most. Makes me feel like they just don't care. That hurts. Anyway, good morning violets. I am going to cut out of work early today to get the last minute things done. The kids are coming this evening to open gifts and then the party at my moms tomorrow. I have baked everything I have to bake so at least that is done. I just have this feeling like I am forgetting something. I hate when that happens. Wish I had time for personals...I probably won't have time for that until after the move. PS...loved all the pics you all are posting!!

No bonus this year....at least not for me. I will check back in later......

Oh...and the stress is causing my restriction to be off the chart!!!

Haydee-Good job girlfriend!! You are doing great!! I only have until tomorrow to get my shopping done Michelle-I bet your house smells yummy! Pamela-hope you had a painless sleep. I am sure Suzanne wishes she could be there with you! Tracy-how did it go last night? Jenn-violet power to you on your fill today and do not take any of the doctors crap! Well ladies, wish me strength today. The ladies in our other building are throwing a party today complete with every baked good known to mankind I am sure. I am sure they will all be delicious because the lady that does the baking used to do wedding cakes for a living...so you can imagine. The only thing that is going to make me a "good girl" is that the ladies over there are nosey (and jealous) about my weight loss and would love to sabatoge it. Just gives me more willpower So, I'll pass things up just to piss them off. Mean right? NOT! Hopefully the boss will give me a bonus today...with the move and Christmas we really need it! DSS and DSD come over tomorrow to open gifts and I need to so a little more shopping before then. I really need to take tomorrow off but if the boss doesn't give me a bonus today I will have to show up tomorrow to see if he gives me one then...if not oh well. What it is is the guys get a bonus every 3 months and I do not get one since I am in the office. They usually give me one at Christmas time all at once to make up for all year going without. If one does not come through, I will be really hurt and upset. Wish me luck! Have a great junk-free day violets!

Hi Haydee!!! You are not the only one not done Christmas shopping!!

Pamela-rest rest rest! Hope you heal quickly sista! Suzie-that is beautiful! Good job Laura-you did better on the chocolate @ work than I did...I ate all 4 LOL Kat-I like reading Fern Michaels, John Sanford, Stephen King, Dean Koontz, VC Andrews (flowers in the attic) Mitch Albom.... I wanna get the book Tuesdays with Morrie. I love to read. not really into the unrealistic romance novels like Harloquin. OK, gotta make dinner. Have a great one V's!!!

Good morning Vs' In a mad dash to go to work....but HAD to say good morning! Have a great day! :confused:
