Good Morning Violets~ WOW...I slept until 7:45! Gotta love those muscle relaxers! I had the coolest dream and I can't tell Susanne...so I am telling ya'll! Justin Timberlake (my boyfriend, he just doesn't know it) was at my school for a performance (yeah right) and I went up to him...started talking to him...and kissed him!!! and (close your eyes Judy) had hot hot sex w/ him!!!!!!:faint: Just as the good stuff was happening, Susanne called (she left here at 2am) but I told myself to not move and keep dreaming...and it worked! I loved that dream! Now, I've had hot hot sex w/ Bill Clinton 2x and Justin 1x(hope there is a sequel). HEHE...dont tell anyone K? (she says as she is posting it on the internet, lol) TracyK~Purple power for the move today! I was thinking of you this am...hope it goes smoothly! TracyKS~Got a TV in the office? Disney Channel? Hang in there. Michelle~I know those words! I was soooo freakin pissed yesterday. I have not been able to eat much at all and weighed yesterday...guess what...you got it....2FREAKIN50! I swear. My MIL said, "you better eat something, you have not had much food since I've been here." Yet that damn scale wont move. I thought it was stuck so I asked Susanne to weigh, no...hers said 163. Gonna post this now so I don't lose it, then I'll write more.

I PB'd breakfast and am feeling sick today. I just made a protein shake w/ ice cream! Anyway, everyone else...enjoy! Off to take a napsky! xoxoxoxo

bravo! Bravo!

hohohohohohohohohohoho

Shannon and Nancy~ Welcome and pop over to the main thread. We are a great group of ladies and like Judy said, you can never have too many violets! Your success stories are inspirational. Come on!

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE FAMILY!!! I WISH YOU ALL A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY FILLED W/ LAUGHTER, FAMILY AND FRIENDS. HO HO HO ((JULI)) XOXOXOXOX

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE EVERYONE! I LOVE YOU ALL VERY MUCH AND AM THINKING OF YOU ALL DURING THE NEXT FEW DAYS! xoxoxoxoxo

OMG Jenn...I am sooo sorry for your loss. What a heart breaking story. I feel so bad for you and your kids. My heart goes out to you guys. Loss sucks, but loss at the holidays is devastating. Hang in there honey. Anything we can do for you? Keep us posted and have a special Christmas. xoxoxo

Merry Almost Christmas Eve Violets~ Denise...purple power heading your way for your daughter. Ms. Jen!...Good to see (or read) you again. Well, here is the update. Meet the Falkers went well...Susanne's parents meeting mine. We had a nice afternoon w/ my brother and nephew, parents and Susanne's parents. The this morning we went to breakfast. Picture this...everyone orders breakfast, and I order cottage cheese and fruit. Not too obvious, huh? Susanne picked up the check (well, barely...I was able to sneak my credit card to the waitress and nobody saw...then dad and Susanne's dad were arguing over who gets the bill, and the waitress hands it to me and says "she already took care of it"). Anyway...having a hard time eating. I was able to get in 1/2 a piece of pork, and small amount of German noodles w/ a bunch of gravy. It felt great to eat food, since last night I had oatmeal for dinner, while everyone else had German goolash. **SIGH** Wouldn't be so bad if the damn scale would move...but I have faith, (well...in the New Year I am gonna be really pissed if it doesn't move). Tomorrow is the doctor (back) in the morning and the cemetary. We are cleaning out the garage (give me strength). Then the schnitzle (please let me be able to eat some) and then Midnight Mass. I am an Italian Catholic and will always be even if my "lifestyle" doesn't match their rules. I make my own rules...and thank God everyday for bringing Susanne into my life. Violets~ I wish you all the merriest Christmas. If your traveling, be safe. Eat, drink, be merry and love! We are all very blessed and have so much to be thankful for! HoHoHo. And on a closing note...START THINKING OF OUR JANUARY WORKOUT CHALLENGES. I HAVE TO DROP SOME WEIGHT BEFORE I MEET MY VIOLETS IN MAY! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Morning V's~ Cindy the cruise sounded fun! Great pix and I am glad you had a nice time. S Haydee loved your tree and pix of the house! Thanks for sharing. Well, the back is a bit sore today, and I am afraid to move. So far so good...w/ everyone over today I get to just sit...yeah right. I need to go to the store after I put my face on. Cool, MIL just called and she is about 2 hours away. Whew...now I can do this :ranger:for a short bit. OK...off to play scrabble! Have a great day. xoxoxo

Hey Violets~ Jenn...thanks again...I just loved all my presents! Your so wonderful and it really made my day! Susie...can't help ya. I suffer the opposite (ride the Imodium train too often). My system is too weird now...and everything goes right through me. Good luck! Denise...great pix and congrats! Blake is a cutie already. Is this grand baby #1 or #2? Either way, your be very blessed in '08! I was Judy tonight. Susanne came in and thought it would be good to go up to brothers to use his hot tub! It was 37degrees up there, but the water was great. It did feel good and relaxing...but our faces were freezing. But I thought of Judy. I didn't do any exercises in the hot tub. It was murder getting out...my bathing suit froze to me. I am sooo tight today. I barely made it through 1/3 piece of salmon (lunch w/ bro). Then I had a taco salad (broke down and had Carls Jr.) and kept getting stuck and ended sliming in his sink. He said, "Have I seen everything you've eaten today?" (1/3 salmon and 3-4 bites of taco salad...which is basically ground beef and letuce). Anyway, I said yes...and he said..."OMG, that is not enough food." I came home and am working my way through a shake now for the protein. Susanne's parents are here in the am. My dad and his wife of 32 years (my parents) are gonna be here around noon for a few hours, and my brother John, and his son Johnny will be here too! Full house. I gotta go to the store in the morning regardless of how my back feels. This totally sucks. Wish me luck everyone. This should be fun...trying to not let everyone know that I can't eat anything but mushies. Remember, my MIL watched me PB all Thanksgiving weekend and is now worried. I don't want to do that in front of everyone (bad enough in front of brother tonight). Have a great and safe holiday! xoxoxoxoxoxo

Hey Violets~ Just got in from the doctor, lunch w/ brother and the mail box. I got the best gift ever, cute warm pj's and top, 2 pair of warm fuzzy socks, shower gloves, body wash and cream (lavender of course)...THANK YOU SO MUCH JENN!!! Got the pj's on now and am gonna lay back down. Your the best and I loved everything! I can't wait to shower in the am and use the gloves and body wash! This made my day honey...thanks so much! OK...gonna lay down for a bit. Susanne just called and said she was hitting the road. From Orange County to here is about 2 hours...unless she is in the BMW...she thinks she is speed racer! Thanks again Jenn:girl_hug:. Everyone have a great holiday weekend. Terry, glad you are off for a bit! Enjoy every minute of it! peaceout!

LOL...that is better than a "dick in a box" ala Justin Timberlake!

Jenn~ It is gonna take a lot more than a few bad words to offend us! Glad you are able to vent, if for nothing else, to get it off you chest! Deep breaths and focus on 2008 being your year! Well, I woke up this morning and could barely walk out to get the ice pack. I am sooooo pissed...missing the 3 days before school is out is soooo hard and unfair on the kids, subs, and office people. Meanwhile...I can't get anything done. I am pissedpissedpissed about all of this. It has ruined my workout, wrapping, work, and everything else. F$%^ !!!! And I mean it. Gotta go write some lesson plans and I don't have the TE's here and don't know what page to have the sub use...man, this is gonna be valuable education today. No Child Left Behind...my ass! Have a great day!

Hey V's~ Well I lasted about an hour. I thought I was ok, but then whamo...NOT! SUSIE~ Welcome back! Those 5 pounds will disappear before you know it. Tracy~The boys looked sooo cute. And I can see your gifts are wrapped. I am jealous and don't know how I am gonna get them wrapped. I took a pill and took a nap while my lady was here. I told her vacuum around me, I am gonna sleep on the couch. Now I gotta do some work so I can lay down soon. xoxoxo

Mazie, your mom is in our prayers...lots of purple power heading her way!

Morning Vi's~ Haydee..you look great. I can totally see a difference, and I bet you really feel it in your clothes. Good for you. Michelle~YUMMMM I would love that bread, but couldn't eat it if it were sitting right here. Jenn~ Good luck w/ the bill...I've been there. Good luck w/ the fill too (it was you right getting the fill today). Well, I am gonna go to work today. I slept pretty good (gotta love those pills), and am a bit out of it today, but will try to get through. Problem is on Thursday, I cant stay home anyway because the cleaning lady...so I might as well go to work. I am walking a bit better...but am still in pain. Have a great day!

Hey Vi's~ OMG what have I done. I am beyond pissed that I've hurt myself now. I have too much to do to sit and rest the back. The pills made me sleep all day and I need to do stuff. Man o man...this sucks. Oh yeah, a pain pill and a muscle relaxer only make you sleep...in pain. I'd kill to feel like I did yesterday.

Hey V's~ Terry...good to see you back! Hang in there. Well, about 7am this morning, I hurt my back and started screaming from the pain. I went to work cause it was too late to call a sub. They scrambled and got me coverage and sent me to doctor. I was crying in there, I mean like bawling. He called my primary and ordered me up some pain meds and muscle relaxers! I was told 3 days bed rest...but I gotta work in the am. So, I am gonna try to grade some papers before the meds kick in. This sucks! On my way to the pharmacy, I ran to Gottschalks and finished shopping...mind you, every step hurts and I am moaning in pain. I've got these really old itty bitty old ladies trying to help me. At one point I was crying in the store (this is some intense pain). but I got the shopping done! Gonna go..starting to feel a bit fuzzy! xoxoxo

Susie~ A SOUL SISTA!!! I love it! Yes, AMC since 72. I didn't watch when I was going to school, but I only went 180 days a year. All the other days was AMC. I used to tape (VHS) AMC, OLTL, and GH...but that took too much time. I decided to only do AMC until I die! And you know how I feel about tequila!:faint: I am soooo freaking busy...can't see straight. I have gifts all over the den as I started to wrap yesterday, but had to go to dance class. Then came home and graded papers (I won't even go there how pissed I am the way this all comes down the last week and before xmas no less). My lady comes tomorrow...so all this shit has to go somewhere. Friday is the last day of school, and if I didn't play hookey on Friday, I would do it this week. Anyway...that is my rant in a nut shell. Have a great day everyone. I'll pop in from work later. Hey, there was a 4.0 Earthquake this am. I heard the dog barking, but didn't feel it. xoxoxoxoox

Laura~ Thanks for the email. That is awesome. I can only hope that I will be in the same situation one day! Terry~ I agree w/ Kat. Give us a shout out! Susie~ What soap do you watch? I've been watching All My Children since I was 5 (1972) and will until the day I die. I DVR it everyday and love watching it. Susanne is hooked on Young and the Restless, so when we are together...we watch each others. Gonna be 70 degrees on Christmas day! I love that...always beautiful and kids out riding their new bikes. xoxoxoxo

meant to say couldn't go w/o her

Get a lady Laura. I have 2 jobs and don't have time to dust and vacuum, although I do it from time to time. $50 bucks a week...I think it is money well spent to ALWAYS have a clean house. Plus, I hate making up the bed w/ fresh sheets...she does it for me and even washes towels and sheets. I know it seems like an unneeded indulgence...but I could go w/o her now! She just had her first baby and I got to hold him on Sat!!! 3 days old and soooo cute! peaceout

Dezbus~ I have until Friday then I have 2 whole wonderful beautiful glorious days off...can't freakin wait! Hey Peeps~ I got lucky under the Xmas tree the other night. Under and on the couch near it. It was cool the lighting was great and she was beautiful. It put a spring in my step and was just what I needed. I suggest everyone get lucky under the treee this year. It was so fun, we are gonna do it again on Friday before dinner w/ my parents;) Have a good one~

LOL...it is 5 months right? I only teach...I can't count.
