Kat....what is RA? Rhuemetoid Arthritis?? (Gosh I hope that didn't sound like a dumb question) lol

Good morning! I am so glad it is Friday. DH started days today and dsd is spending the weekend with her mom. It'll just be me & macy so we will do something fun together. We never have any 'just us' time anymore. I am really looking forward to it. What is everyone doing this weekend? Michelle-I hope your dd doesn't have a UTI. My dd had one when she was about 3 and it was HORRIBLE! I hate to see babies in that much pain. Have a good one today :sifone: GO SAINTS!!!!!!!

Good morning friends! I am so ready for the weekend! I need to rest my brain. I also need to go see my dr about my Celexa. Doesnt seem to be working like it used to. I know if I were back in the game and losing weight that I would not be as sad...but I just dont know what the problem is. My addiction to food is getting the best of me and for some reason I can't snap out of it. I will talk later....baby is crying

I am here...just do not really have anything much to say. I know that is strange for me but... Have a great day everyone!

Kat-I am so happy for you on the countdown of being free of that debt (that you should not even have to be paing!) Girl....I know I will be throwing a serious party...but not for about 7 more years.

Good morning! I am about to get bombarded with kids so I only have a minute. I did well with eating yesterday. Today I will too :confused: They are here...gotta run!!

Hi everyone! I had a productive day. Started my day off by talking to God and asking for strength to get my head back in this game. I started the slimfast 3-2-1 plan and I am going to see what happens. It is 3 snacks, 2 slimfasts, and one sensible dinner. I can do that. AND I made a conscious effort to stay off the couch today. I did end up weighing this morning...I am glad I did so I could really SEE what I have done to myself. I guess you are probably as tired of hearing me 'starting over' than I am. Hopefully this is the time I stick with it. I will do personals in the morning. Thanks for listening.

I bought some slimfast....so the logical part of my brain knows what I need to do. Now if I can drink it AS a meal instead of drinking it, feeling the stomach growl and go in the kitchen to get something else to eat.... I am not even going to weigh..I know enough, lol Have a great day (((hugs)))

About to go to BED! Went shopping tonight and needed 3 baskets to get it all to the van. I saved 20 buckes with my coupons :biggrin: Gotta love that! Goodnight friends :glare:

Good morning! I am a happy girl that it is Saturday...no particular reason other than i only have 2 kids here instead of 4, lol....but that is reason enough, right? Yesterday our neighbor across the street got robbed. SO...that answered the question we had burning in our heads...should we reactivate the alarm system that was installed here. Now we know the answer is yes, we should. I called them last night and they are going to reconnect/test it with us over the phone today or Monday. I hope I can get them to do it today because Frank is on nights and it would make me feel more secure. I will only turn on the motion detector when we are gone because i dont want to have it set while we are sleeping then have one us get up when nature calls and set off the alarm, lol. I am chatty this morning...if you are bored by now just skip the rest...lol. I just had a full size bed given to me and I am giving it to Macy....well another friend just gave me a queen size memory foam mattress that is only a year old :glare: I will put that in dss/guest room. How cool is that?! Gotta love free stuff. Now if I can find a free couch, I will be in business :wub: If felt so good going to pay some bills off yesterday. I didn't get to pay off all that I wanted, but it sure is a step in the right direction! Jenn I haven't gotten as good as you. An eliptical would KILL me but I wish I had a treadmill. I think I will start looking on craigslist for one. Suzanne I hope you have a great time at the ranch! Bundle up! Kat-after all this time you old office manager is still a thorn in your side...ugh! Well, this is the last poke she could get in on you, so that is good, right?! I know you are glad Rick is home and his boss saying he is not paying him for down time is BS. What do you have planned this weekend? So much more I could write about but I need to do some other things on the computer and I know macy is wanting my attention so I better bolt Have a great weekend everyone! :biggrin:

GOOD MORNING!!! First things first...we got our check in our old mailbox. My neighbor (the lady I babysit for) called me and said it here!! Before she left yesterday I said "dont forget to check my mail". lol :woot:It is so good to know I am getting some stuff paid off. Its kinda like giving myself a raise Suzanne-I am so happy that you are staying with the program and losing good! I hope you all have a great time at the ranch. SNOW? oh my... Laura-best of luck with the job (i despise corporate jerks) AND best of luck with the party! It is always SO good to hear from you! Have a fantastic weekend! Kat-I am sorry Rick had to leave so quickly. That had to suck! When I read your story about the girl not being in there I kina laughed but then I agree with you about people being so laxed about doing their job. I am quite sure there are alot of people that would take her job in a heart beat. What do you have planned for the weekend? Jenn-when is the party/ball/dance (whichever, lol) that you are having? I wish I had a third of your energy! How are things with you? How is your new guy and you progressing? How are your kiddos? Michelle-YAY for you getting the tax stuff done @ work! I'll bet you are relieved! About ambien...my mom and my sister used to take it and say it works really good but when they try to stop taking it they have horrible nightmares. I hope that you feel better with your back! Mine has been hurting alot lately too. Cindy-are you having a superbowl party? We are going to have a few friends over and put some steaks on the grill. Everyone-those who know me best know I am a huge Survivor fan! I can not wait until the new one starts. The heroes vs villains. It is gonna be a GREAT game. :bored: OK, I need to wake up the kids for school. I will talk to you all later!

Kat that is a great idea! I will call them as soon as they open up. I can just imagine it sitting in a bin at the post office when it would do much better sitting in our band account! lol Hi everyone! I am glad tomorrow is Friday. I need a break. I love the kids but it sure is alot more quiet when it is just my kids here! They are pretty much self sufficient compared to a 4 month old and a 3 year old. We got a new (to us) full size bed yesterday. The headboard and footboard are really pretty. It needs a new mattress but I can deal with this one for a little while. I will buy a mattress pad and maybe some memory foam to put on it. The box spring is brand new. I will post pics of it when we set it up. I am thinking about letting macy have it. I want a bigger bed in the extra bedroom. Have a great day everyone!

Jenn- glad to see ya!

That is what I did in Gruene. Ugh...it was funny the next day though.

Good morning ladies~ I slept so good last night. I could have slept another 2 hours but so what else is new?! lol We found out that a settlement that we were part of sent out checks again...and we have moved twice since then. Can you imagine it getting lost in the mail? It was mailed out on the 19th of January. Now we an either #1 hope the USPS can forward something twice without losing it OR #2 fax the place a letter giving permission to cancel that check and issue a new one. I can just see us telling them to cancel it and it will show up in the mail tomorrow. lol I dont know what we should do. What would you all do? Oh well, I better get off here. I will check back in later. Have a great day everyone!!

Kat-now THAT woman is my definition of racist! What a bit*h! UGH Irene-I really do not think Miami is ready for what they are about to get...a bunch of loud FUN partying cajuns! I wish I could go!

Congrats on making it through day one! :smile2: No, you do not have to ask me who I am rooting for...I am quite sure I have made no bones about it, right? LMAO....you should jump on the bandwagon! Good morning! I did not do as good as Suzanne did as far as eating goes. I am going to have to completely retrain myself and psych myself out. I am just SO out of it and I need to get my groove back! Hope you all have a fantastic day! Take care :confused:

WHO DAT GOIN TO DA SUPERBOWL? Cindy-Wasn't that the greatest game ever?! Jenn-sorry you aren't able to keep anything in your system but I wish I could catch a virus right about now...lol. Sad right?! Kat-how was your shopping trip? I would have loved to go with you but I HAD to watch the games. lol What great games they both were! I am glad you are doing things on your own terms as far as dil and ds are concerned. Good for you! Suzanne-I am right there with you on this day one thing. And so far so good for me too. But then again, I just woke up. LMAO Have a great day everyone! Gotta get off here because my kids are about to be here. Drink your water and get in your protein!

Good morning everyone...have a fantastic day! GO SAINTS!

Good morning! Today I promised myself hat I am going to make a conscious effort to watch what I put in my mouth. I have put myself on a one day at a time program. I guess I outta call it one hour at a time program, lol. I nboticed my new years get up and go...got up and went without me, LMAO. Anyway, I am gonna wait a day or 2 before I weigh and see what I am dealing with. My sister is coming over to see the house then later since it is just me & macy we are having a momma/daughter day. I am going to bring her to see the chipmunks and to play at McDonalds and have some nuggets I cleaned the house yesterday and LOVED waking up knowing I wasn't going to trip over anything or have to look at what needs to be done. Love it....now if I can keep it this way I will be in business. What are you lovely ladies doing this weekend? I see football in my future...... Go SAINTS!!

I have to admit that all of this talk about size 10s and 12s is making me sad BUT...it does not mean I am not happy for you ladies, you know that I am. Just reminds me of how I was there and now I am far from it. I wish I could turn the clock back about 2 years. Oh well, I can't so what I need to do is make sure this time next year I am not saying the same thing....right?! Goodnight friends

Good morning ladies! TGIF, right?! This weekend dsd is going to her grandmas for the weekend. Tomorrow my sister is coming to see the house. Maybe she will bring Macy home with her? Wishful thinking? Probably. lol Yesterday I was here alone for about 10 minutes. Forgot how wonderful silence is! ha! I wish the kids mom worked part-time. Now that would be right up my alley. Have a great day everyone. Jenn, sorry you are having a tough time. ((hugs)) :biggrin: ttyl friends

Hi Laura-I think Macys problem is that she changed schools/curriculam a year ago. This is a higher level of education school district. She was doing fantastic at her other school but the change in curriculam has thrown her for a loop. I am planning on getting her some tutoring. I have a number of someone highly recommended. Kat-I wish I were ther to see the snow and sit by a fire and visit with you! Goodnight everyone...I am pooped. Jenn & Suzanne????

Kat-that is good news! I am so happy to wake up and see it. An infection is WAY better than the other. I know you must be relieved! YAY! Suzanne-I agree with Laura and Kat. Some tough love is in order. I am so sorry that you have been so sad! Jenn-how do you feel? Still have the sore throat? That is so miserable. Hope you are feeling better sista! Michelle-how did you weather the storm? I love how you said dd and ddog are fed. I cracked up! ddog, too cute. Cindy & Laura-I watched Biggest Loser lasst night. I totally agree think that Jillian and Bob were playing good cop/bad cop. She sent him up there to stop her from leaving 'his way'. That girl has a huge chip on her shoulder and something has happened to her. I wish she would talk about it. Oh, and that woman on the red team must think ALL of us are stupid to think she really only lost 1 pound. Give me a break. Why doesn't she just admit she is playing the game? Hi Tonya! Stay around and talk with us. We have a wonderful group here! Congrats on finding your sweet spot and the loss. That is great! All Homeless today I go and enroll dd in her new school. She is so excited and I am so nervous. Since she has an August b-day she is still behind in her class. Most of her classmates are 7 or turning 7 soon and she wont be 7 until August. She is passing but it is just squeaking by. I will talk to her teacher about my concerns. Maybe I should hold her back...or just trust the school to do what needs to be done?! Have a great day everyone! (((hugs)))

Good morning everyone! One kid is sleeping, the other one is almost gone too. sweet.... I need to go today and enroll Macy in her new school and withdraw her from her old school. Also need to go to the grocery store. Not fun with 2 kids but I know if all the other moms in the world can do it...so can I. Go Saints.....
