Had an ORGANIC (I get a kick out of this, I don't ever eat organic knowingly but this stuff is so good and I notice it says Organic all over the label) yogurt smoothie for b'fast, and drinking my Water.< /p>

Listening to Sarah McLachlan, burned some of her CD's at home last night to bring to work..forgot how much I like her.

So much for 3 days of rain, it's cast-over but sometime in the middle of the night the rain stopped and it's 60 degrees again.

Too cute Pam! Love love love kids at that age. The ideas that are tumbling around in their heads!

Judy, your pics look so magical! I remember the first time I saw huge piles of snow like that. My parents had taken us skiing at Breckenridge and we went on this tour through the woods with snowmobiles. I had to ask our guide to pull over so that we could all just jump on these massive piles of snow. We were all grown up but we acted like we were two years old. Rolling around in it, my dad included. Such fun!

Laura - your tables look awesome in your living room! I've been looking for new tables for awhile now. Hoping to find some on craigslist. I've been so patient, waited almost a year and nothing. Luckily the tables I have right now are gorgeous and functional but I just don't feel like they feel right in that room. But alas, don't want to pay full price! Oh my gosh, the bump is so cute! Not a basketball belly but who cares! As long as baby Carson is growing and protected in there...

Did you post those pics like how you showed me the other day? Why am I so computer illiterate??

TracyK - WHOO HOO! That is awesome about the van!! Isn't it so true that the more money you have or have access to, the cheaper things are to get? Sad but true! But I'm so happy for you! In Houston it's really impossible not to have two vehicles in a family.

Terry - did you take the day off today? It was so so nasty outside this morning. My 30 min commute turned into an hour twenty minutes! Yuck. I was so super late to work. Thought about throwing in the towel and calling in but I was halfway here and just thought, what the heck.

Suzie - Did you finally get around to putting up your Christmas stuff? I know you wanted to wait awhile before doing that. My mom always complains each year of how Christmas comes earlier and earlier but each year there she goes dragging all her Christmas stuff out right after Halloween! LOL. She's too funny...

Kat - How the heck do you even handle a woman like that? Like Terry said, I would want to just smack her! I seriously have no patience for people like that and it would be impossible for me to hold my mouth! oooohh i would go off on her...

let me get this posted before i lose the whole dang thing... my computer has been acting funny all morning...

[TracyK 3]

Hi again all...I found out that our check DID get mailed...so now the fun part :tt1:

Terry-yep, I thought that yawn was precious and very fitting...i could not even hardly keep my eyes open this morning!

Jane-how are you? When do you find out your test results?

Kat-how long do hives last? I read your posts and I start scratching! I feel so bad for you. I will keep Gary and Becky in my prayers.

TracyinKS-way to go girlie :tt1: :whistle: I thought you were coming to get me on some kind of 'no violet left behind' program! :whistle:

Pamela-sounds like such a sweet, funny, compassionate group of kids!

Judy-bundle up little lady...if you freeze you may crack like a twig! :whistle:

Laura-you will have the big basketball belly....in the 8th and 9th month for me, I could not even tell I was fat, just REALLY pregnant! What time is your appt tomorrow? As soon as you find out, text me...lol

Haydee-when you gonna get some happy pills? I hope they work for you. You are way too beautiful inside & out to be sad! :whistle:

Jenn-how are you feeling? I am really so glad that you started posting again regualarly!

Denise-sorry about the miscarriage. How is your daughter taking it?

Michelle-don't you mean 41 pumpkin loaves? :tt1::whistle: (hint hint)

Suzie-any snow for you yet?

Have a good rest of the day everyone!

tracyks - TWO 30oz of Water already! I am doing so so bad on my water intake... I struggle with it every day!

Laura - heard one of her songs this morning on the radio and I thought that too! I forgot how much I like her! I have two of her CD's that I hardly ever play anymore, I'll have to dig them out...

[TracyK 3]

I had an email from myspace for someone who's "known" me or read me for 6+ years online..... she used to frequent LCF and then saw me on my surgeons website.. she found me in myspace and messaged me..... SMALL WORLD! Smaller even that she works right down the street from me.

Can you spell S-T-A-L-K-E-R :tt1:

(just joking)

[Haydee 2]

tracyk - i'm hoping to go to my GP sometime next week. It's so hard to get an appointment this time of year and my schedule is also crazy. But I need to get on them... I've been contemplating for awhile now and weighed the pros and cons and I just feel like if it's going to help me then I might as well go for it. I just didn't want to get addicted, you know? And I always want to beat myself up about it, like, why can't I just get out of this slump on my own. or why can't I get down to the root of what makes me emotional and so freaking sensitive and change that?

[Haydee 2]

Can you spell S-T-A-L-K-E-R :tt1:

(just joking)

I know! Seriously, six years??? wow...

[TracyK 3]

Haydee-believe it or not...I did not miss not having a car that bad. It will be nice to go to the grocery store without dh and it is nice to know if the weather is horrible I can drive macy to the bus stop. But at least now I know it is a luxury and not a necessity. I know not to take it for granted too :tt1:

Hi gals

just a quick check in, had meetings this morning and it has been crazy, snowed yesterday and down pour this morning

i look like a drowned rat

Anyway, I had so many personals but i can't remember because someone walked in and i had to shrink down... i hate when that happens

I'm still on cup o Soup 45 cals each... yummy, i'm not even starving anymore.

Tomorrow is my appt to get results, but now whatever has to happen is going to wait, leaving Friday and can't wait!!!!!

Tracyk - that is awesome what you wrote about where you are... I think that is why i've not moved, not gaining, not loosing.. and i'm pretty active and healthy... but i want more now - but that is ok, either way i'm overall pretty happy,.... just cut my belly off!

Love the tables Laura

Here is the kitchen painted and the Island in... Monday i'll have pictures of cabinets

Hi Girls~

Laura~ I've been meaning to post that I love the name Claire and Brianna. I know you are not asking my opinion but wanted to throw it in there. Brianna is georgous...and it goes sooo well w/ your last name! The tables look great and I love the color of your living room!

Jeez...forgot what else I was gonna type.

OK...try again later.

[Daisalana 33]

I love the color Jenn!

I am the same way Haydee, well kind of, I am too afraid to ask for happy pills. My GP is great and I think he'd give them to me no problem, but I can't bring myself to ask.

Mom told me this morning, my dad (who comes back from Vegas today) the day before his trip to Vegas he went to a clinic to get antibiotics for a tooth ache he had.. and while there, they said he had a lump in his lymphnode and needed to go see his GP.. he went out of town but since he comes back today I am going to nag him till he goes to the doctor.

[kity 2]

Dumb Question Alert!

What exactly are "happy pills"???

[mdrai 3]

Terri: "Wanna bet??!" (That's what my ds says all the time. We have learned NOT to bet w/him as he somehow always wins, even when we're POSITIVE we'll win. So funny.) And FYI, funny lady... I am taking today at a very enjoyably slow pace... I even have the "classical Christmas" station on w/the beautifully hypnotic choirs and orchestras and tenors performing simply gorgeous arrangements... it is SO very calming & also the perfect way to ease into the season while baking at a leisurely pace... aaahhhhh... no stress here! :whistle:

TracyKS: I was going to say "Be careful of those crazy folks off the Internet!" :tt1:

TracyK: 41??? Hmmmmm...

Pam: Happy pills = antidepressants... mmmmm! :tt1:

Time to go do something else slowly & with purpose... just to bug Terri some more! Tee Hee!

[TracyinKS 7]

My version of happy pills are "Celexa" supposed to take the edge off. My boss takes the same medicine but his dose is 60 mg while mine is 20 mg.

I can't really tell a difference except that I don't cry so easily and that I tend to deal with stress better.... meaning I don't fly of the handle, and I don't think I had the normal PMS moodswings last time.........

[TracyinKS 7]

LOL!!! I know....... (re: internet stalker) I almost didn't read the myspace message because it started "I'm really NOT a stalker!"
