Hi everyone...I am here, just sitting around doing nothing and listerning to it pour down rain outside. It has been raining all day and the forecast is the same for tomorrow. Wish I could sleep all day but that is impossible with a 4 year old!! i will check in later...

oooohhh...that sounds good!!

Thanks Suzie! Janie-I hope you feel better soon! Judy-If I could have been one of those crazy shoppers I would have been right out there too! just can't right now Pamela-I wanna see that movie too...let me know if it is any good! Jenn-never heard of that kind of liquor before...what is it? Well, I did eat like a cow...I am glad I did because I realized something very important...I can eat more than I should which means, I need a fill. Nothing I ate got stuck...and I ate way more than a cup, so , Dr Spivak here I come!! It was a learning experience (that I enjoyed tremendously at the time). I need to go do some grocery shopping today. I need to do it today because it is supposed to rain rain rain Saturday & Sunday! Have a great day everyone!!

Oh, my brother is in there too with my family....how could I forget him? lol

Here are 2 pics from today me & my sisters & mom and me and Frank (dh)

I am home...too full to type! (not really, just tired) I will check back later...hope you are all having a great day! Gobble Gobble!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING VIOLET SISTAS!!! I have cooking to do then we are leaving for the hours and a half journey to my sisters. I hope the traffic does not slow us down! DH can not go because he is working today Take care everyone! Judy & Pamela-I am not sure if I will be able to graze all day, but it sounds good!

I don't know the CD titles, but here are some of my favs... Tim McGraw (that good lookin' sucker) Faith Hill (the good lookin' suckers wife) Chris Daughtery Nickelback Creed Carrie Underwood Lionel Richie Aerosmith and please don't laugh at this one, but I love Michael Jacksons old music, Bad, Thriller, Off the Wall... Oh, and Barbara Streisand. As you can tell, I like it all. Even classical... I am so happy for the 4 day weekend! Everyone have a great & blessed holiday! Oh, footnote....I will be a PIG tomorrow. I am gonna graze like a cow all day long. I have not done that since April and I probably won't do it again until next year. I am going to eat until I am physically sick....just thought I would confess now!!

Tracy-sorry to hear about that sad news! I will keep your family in my prayers. Have FUN today Pamela-I am jealous! Judy-what a beautiful ring! Kat-glad to hear that you are doing & smelling better I had an older hispanic man at work yesterday tell me (in very broken English) that I didn't need to lose any more weight cause I looked skinny & pretty. I wish you could have heard him because he was so sincere and was trying to make himself clear on his point. So sweet! Made me feel good, especially since the scale is on indefinite hold for now...lol Take care everyone!

Hi violets... Congrats on the weight loss Suzie! I am gonna go fix supper. I will just check back in tomorrow...take care & have a good night

wooohooo...great job Jane!!!!:clap2::clap2::clap2: Good evening violets!! Tracy-congrats about the adoption going through!! You have so much to be thankful for on Thanksgiving Day! Pamela-I wish I was off Wednesday & going to be pampered then shopping. That sounds like heaven! Suzie-reading your post made me tired. Way to go on staying away from the cookie jar Kat-it is SO great to have you back! We really had the purple vibes and prayers going your direction!! Laura-love the post about the cell phone & bible. I am still staying away from the scales until I just wake up feeling lighter than normal. lol Everyone have a great evening! For those leaving to go out of town for thanksgiving, please be careful and try to peek in on us from time to time!

Good Monday morning violets! A 3 day work week....I can handle that! It is supposed to be really cold here for Thanksgiving...a 50 high around here is COLD! As long as the rain stays away for at least that one day since I have to be on the road would be great! Everyone have a great day!

My perspective...skip it if you don't wanna hear it! Well, since it is TOM, I eat..and eat. not to the point I used to, but things I shouldn't have. But, I am not going to let it get me down. Why...because I am a winner! I am not a super human. If I were, I would not have gotten out of control to the point I had to get the lapband, BUT...I am in control of this. I decide what to eat. If it is the wrong things, then I am the one that pays the price. Maybe the gals that are in the funk need to cut themselves a break. Take it easier on yourselves. Tomorrow is a new day. It is very easy to let the scale not moving get you down, believe me, I know. But you know what? We are all losing weight. Maybe a pound or 2 or even 10 come back on, but we are in control of it, and it will come back off. Why? Because we are violets, that is why! I have never "met" such an outstanding, determined, sexy group of ladies in my whole life!! We are violet sistas....hear us ROAR! OK...corny maybe, but true, or at least that is my honest opinion!!!

:lalala: OMG Gina that recipe sounds so yummy... Food Porn for sure!! LOL Good morning violets! It is a good thing that yesterday wasn't CTCD. "Forgive me Father for I have sinned". Today is a new day. Have a great one sistas!!

I mean have a great night....ugh, long day

Terri-good luck w/ all you are going through. We are all here for ya!! Welcome back Suzie! Tracy-congrats on the 205!! Everyone have a great day!

Good saturday morning violets... jane-nice to finally see you! What a pretty lady you are!! I really like the article (and of coarse the bracelet) I am just having my morning coffee and checking in to say hello to all my friends!! Have a great day everyone!

GREAT NEWS about Kat!!! I am SO relieved! Thanks for letting us know Terri....

Terri-it IS a beautiful day here today right? Makes me wanna run around in the yard nekkid....um, OK, so the weather isn't THAT good LOL I am off work early today. I went to my dd day school to have a Thanksgiving "feast" (as they call it!) She conned me into bringing her home with me. All it took was a "momma, will you please take me home with you?" I said sure babygirl! So, here we are! My dss and dsd are coming over this weekend and we have a b-day party to go to for my great nephew. I will check in later.

:cool::grouphug::grouphug: Kat-We love you!! We are praying for you! Everyone have a great day and thanks for the nice words (and boobies) for my pics!

Macy wanted to be in the pic with me

:banana:banana:banana:banana:Banane20::Banane20::clap::Banane20::star::Banane10::star::bananajump: YAY TRACY!!!!!!! Way to go!!!!

Jenn-hope you are doing OK. just wanted you to know I am thinking of you! Terri-you are such an inspiration to me that one or 2 bad days doesn't change anything. You are doing SO awesome! Pamela-yes the TOMs are screwed up. It is the weight loss/hormone thing going on. It will straighten out eventually. Kat-I have the positive vibes heading your way! Judy-4 1/2? OMG...I have never had a 4 1/2 anything! lol I am gonna get off here a while...I am cramping to the MAX. By the way, 188 this morning!
