Hi everyone! Laura-congrats and welcome back! Loved BB last night. bbl....

like what? I had said he is on his days off and probably wants to go do something fun but I am not feeling well. Thats about it.:thumbup:

Kat-you are going to be seeing 16something SO soon! WOOHOOO! Weight loss has changed TOM as far as this....I am more regular and it is heavier than it used to be.

:thumbup: HI LAURA!!!!!!! I see you!

Thanks for noticing Judy...feels good to know I am missed :thumbup: Here I am! I surprised myself and slept until 7:50 AM. That is the latest I think I have slep in years. Probably cause TOM is here in full force and I do not feel well. We wanted to go to Schlitterbahn (water park) today but that has been put on hold. I feel bad cause dh is off and I feel like crap and all I wanna do is crawl in bed and hibernate. I know he wants to go do something. Maybe we can find some kind of compromise. How is everyone doing? This morning I have had 2 cups of coffee so far and I am going to have some WC oatmeal. I will pray that after that I make good choices. It is my plan to be a model bandster today.

I am not posting the food today...lets just say 'forgive me Father for I have sinned'. I can not WAIT until I can get a fill!! So are we loving BB or WHAT!

Good morning violets~ :cry_smile: YAY FOR PAMELAS PORK RINDS!! :drool: Today I was start posting piehole reports again. So far it is just coffee withOUT any cream. I waste alot of calories & carbs on cream so I guess it is something I can slowly remove from my daily routine. Its gonna be tough. Since I don't smoke anymore, it should be easy because I do not enjoy coffee as much as I used to than when I was a smoker....weird huh? I will probably just quit drinking coffee all together. We'll see. DH is on his days off. :biggrin2: Now if I can stay away from our fav mexican restraunt we'll be fine. We have to do more school shopping for Macy. Have a great day everyone!

Yep....I am a survivor. lol The rain has finally stopped, for now anyway. Lights never went out and for the most part it was a much needed day long rainstorm. The wind picked up quite a bit but not anything that was scary. I am so BLAH right now. It is TOM time and I am feigning for chocolate but there isn't any in the house (GO ME) but...there is a can of whipped cream in there calling my name...loudly. I think I will just go out for a walk instead. I will bbl...

btw...Terry, congrats on the -2 WOOHOO YOU!

Pamela-glad you are feeling better today! Terry-so now you only have a 3 day work week, right? I'll bet that makes you happy :thumbup: Haydee-be super careful on your way home, k? Kat-I do not really wanna start the bubble blowing in the bathtub thing. I have a major fear of slippery bathtubs!! Maybe its the vision of blood on porcelain that I can not get out of my head! lol Jane-how are you enjoying your wiifit? I miss laura and tracy :thumbup: Judy-the 1st to Die James Patterson book made me cry...but it was good. I am gonna start the 2nd one in a minute. I thought the women were gonna be the murderers, not the good guys! Suzie-how are things with you? Yay for you not getting a shake for yourself too. That is great will power. You must be a better person than me cause I woul have old my sis nope, that I would not bring her one. lol That would be like someone asking me to buy & deliver them a pack of cigarettes....that would not happen either. lol take care ya'll

we sure needed this rain but macy isn't liking it too much. She wants to go outside and blow bubbles...lol I can not believe I forgot to tell you all this...guess what I did yesterday? While we were out walking (macy was riding her bike)....I jogged!!!! ME, jog...omg for real?! I DID! Not extremely far but that is not the point. I did it on my own and there was not anyone chasing me with a knife or gun! (and I actually like it)

Good morning- The storm is making landfall. Luckily for us it is worst on the east side of us...really closer to my mom (and the rest of my family) so I am waiting to hear from her. We still have lots of rain headed our way which we really need. So far so good... Terry-frozen baggies of water...never thought of that one! Great idea! I will keep posting as long as we have electricity...

The storm will not be first thing in the morning anymore, it will be later in the morning when it comes ashore. At least dh will be home. Goodnight violets! (((hugs)))

I have been looking at different weather websites an all of them show the storm coming here. I mean, RIGHT OVER ME! I am kinda freaked out actually. Frank is working tonight. Hopefully he will get home in the morning before it gets too bad. I guess it really dawned on me about how serious it could be when I got home a little while ago and saw that the landlord had removed every single trash can from our little community. I need to go outside and get Rapunzel and bring her in. She is my Ivy that the guys at work gave me when I 'retired'. She has really long hair (vines), so I named her Rapunzel. The good news is that the astros are beating the cubs...

Too late Kat-she is already a "helper". If I am n the kitchen, so is she. If I get up to GO to the kitchen she is right behind me asking "what are we gonna do now momma?" We just got home from going to buy a few more things for the storm supplies. People are lined up at the gas pumps like you would not believe! On the news a little while ago they were interviewing the light company rep and she said to be prepared to be out of service for 2 weeks or longer. HUH?:thumbup: Oh well, I am being pessimistic (sp?). Anything could happen with that darn storm overnight. I will give you all an update before I go to bed cause I know you are all very concerned about us Texas gals well being:blushing: . Tornados are what worry me....

That is fantastic...thanks Michelle :thumbup: Let me know about the postage so I can get it back to ya'.

Pamela-I e-mailed it to you just now AND I also got some ice and the coolers ready:biggrin: Believe one thing, if our light are off too long, I am goin to MOMS! TracyK - a/c = a cranky violet

Thanks Pamela! LOL, I love getting tips on hurricane preparedness from someone living in Cali! LOL You crack me up! :thumbup:

:smile: HI HAYDEE!!

I am quite sure he would have his hands full with just me let alone all of us. He would pull his hair out....wait, he doesn't have any! Problem solved!:smile:

I never heard of a plugged up cat...

Terry-our elders could handle it cause they did not know any better. By the way, have you EVER seen a really old picture where the woman is actually smiling? LOL I have a pic of my grandma, great grandmother and GREAT GREAT.....and NONE of them are smiling! The thought of the lights going out is freaking me out actually. It is supposed to be 101 today! EEEK :smile: I am leaving to go get some batteries, Water and a can opener. If our lights go out, I do not have a manual can opener! Oh, plus I am gonna get some ice. Check with you all later!

Good morning violets- Jenn-do you throw up every morning or something? You made it sound like a regular thing. Terry-yep, the storm is hitting here early tomorrow morning. God I hope our lights don't go out. I guess if that is the least of my problems I'll be doing good, right? They have already evacuated Cameron Parish since so many people bought trailers after Rita, they are being cautious. Pamela-I am so sorry about your dad. (((hugs))) I lost my dad as well in '99 to brain cancer. My mother is alive and well and I speak with her daily. She is my best friend. :smile: It is so sad to think of the people that do not say what is in their hearts before its too late. That has always been my on fear, so I make sue I OVER do it! Better too much than not enough! Suzie-we did not get a drop of rain from Dolly...this is a totally different story though. I think we are in for some bad stuff! Michelle-thank you for making me thankful for my uneventful day today :wub: It could be worse, right? LOL Hope everyone had a great weekend! I'll bet Laura & Tracy are having fun!

Tropical Storm Edouard....great, I'll bet it will be a hurricane by morning! We need some rain but SHEEESH! Supposed to make landfall somewhere around here on Tuesday. Could be worse...at least I do not think it is something we'll have to evacuate for!

Jane-I know that is how I am too...I never check the easy stuff first...I guess I just figure it can not be easy!! lol
