Suziecat

Yea, Good for me. I went and took doggie for a mile and a half walk. It was so cold. I had to stop several times to blow my nose. Got home and hubby rubbed my hands. Even with gloves on they got frozen. Now I'm all snug in my chair and gonna veg out. Judy, You'll love the laptop life. It's great. Have a great evening.

Here's my report..... bacon danish cookies pizza danish chex mix cookies fudge And we haven't even made it to dinner yet. I'll be so glad when tomorrow morning is here and I can start eating like I'm supposed too. You know, follow the rules of Band Life.

Merry Christmas to All. Our present opening lasted 3 seconds. That's how long it takes to open an envelope and pull out two tickets to the "Eagles" Concert. Hubby was really excited, kinda shocked at the price but excited. So glad that Jane made it home in time for the holiday. Michelle, I will say an extra prayer at Church this morning for that poor family. I know what it's like to have someone pass away right at Christmas time. Everyone have a GREAT day. Hugs to you all.

Hubby and I just got back from our Holiday treat to each other, we always take sometime to ourselves and go have a drink. Today we went to the mexican restuarant and shared a half order of nachos a margarita and a beer. So we are officially done with the holiday. Except tomorrow I have to work at church. Mass is at 10am. After that I'm coming home and putting my new sockies on and grabbing a mug of tea and just mellowing the rest of the day. We also stopped by Subway and got sandwiches to take into the hospital tonight. We had told them they could bring the chips and dip and Hubby and I would bring the sanwiches. Merry Christmas to all and too your Families. Hugs, Suzanne.

Terry, Thanks for the lovely picture. How heart warming. I texted Janie. Hope she gets to go home today.

Hubby and I got up and went to the Y. I did a mile on the treadmill. Came home and had a couple of cups of cocoa and a piece of toast. Now to start my day. I went on line to check our bank account and believe it or not, we finally got Hubby's bonus check. Yup, the day before Christas and they finally give us the money. It's a good thing that we didn't rely on it to do our shopping with. Crymany. On the phone right now with an old friend. She is telling me right now that her nephew commited suicide. How horrible. Poor family. Gina and Denise, so good to hear from you. Merry Christams to both of you and hope to see you more often here. Everyone have a great day.

Pam, I agree, I have pics like that. The ones I look at and say "What The &*%$". Anyway, That is too exciting about the party. Have fun. Earlier I packed up all the cookies and fudge and candy. I'm taking it to the volunteer room tomorrow. I actually was on my best behavior today and have not had any cookies or anything. I've had- 2 scrambled eggs and 1 piece of toast 1/2 cup of cottage cheese and pineapple 7 life savers 1/2 cup of chex mix. And lots of water. I'm such a good girl, today. Curves is closed the next 2 days so I'm going with Hubby to the Y in the morning. I walk on the tredmill while he is doing weights. Sending my purple power to Janie.

Table: A table is a symbol of social interaction. I just had the freakiest moment. I was telling my hubby about the dream I had had and that I told Kat about it. I told him that she had said that I needed to open my package. So right in front of my hubby I open the box and we just had the goofiest looks on our face. There right in front of us was a book that said "Dictionary of Dreams". So spooky. Anyway, Kat Thank You so much for the box of the most loveliest gifts. I have to tell all of you that I think I'm the luckiest of us all. I was so touched by everything and can't hardly wait to get back home tonight and put on my new sockies and fix me a mug of tea. I can then crawl into bed and read my books. Thank You, Thank You and Thank You again. Love you Lots.

I sent you all an e-mail. A small update on Jane.

Good Morning All. Lazy day this morning. I don't have to work till 3pm but I'm waiting to see what the weather is going to do. They were calling for it to snow today but I got up this morning and things have changed. So it's a wait and see thing. Tomorrow we have to work at the hospital and I am going to pack up all the christmas goodie stuff and take it into the volunteer room. I'm getting rid of all of it. not a morsel left in the house. I got me one of those books that you right all of your food down and water and exercise. I'm going to give it a very good try and keep a record of all that I eat and drink. I keep reading everyday how this is supposed to help you with your weight loss. I just have never been dilligent about it. I start out and by day two I'm done. Keeping my fingers crossed that Jane gets to come home and that they find what is going on and fix it. Kat, in my dream last night I decided to open my package and it was a big table cloth that you had counted cross stitched in a pattern that I have. I just couldn't get over the fact that someone would have done that for me. Isn't it funny, the things that we dream about. I still haven't decided when to open it, but you will know. Everyone have a great day and make very good choices.

Home from a very long day traveling and it wasn't till the very end that my sister started to drive me crazy. LOL. Our Aunt was very happy to see us and we all had a great time visiting. Poor Jane. So, anyway I get hime and lo and behold there is a package for ME. Thank You Kat, just sure wether I should open it or not. What's the verdit?????? I'm feeling a little chilled so I took some cold meds and am going to head to bed and get some good sleep. They are calling for a good snow fall tomorrow. I may not have to work tomorrow night (yippee). Have a great evening.

A full day ahead of me and it hasn't started out very good so far. Anyway. I'll chat with ya when I get home tonight. Have a great day.

Here's a better pic of the picture I made for Tracy. When I saw it I thought of her and how she is so instrumental in all of our weight loss. I hope that each time she looks at it that she knows how much she means to all of us. Hugs to Tracy.

What a sight that would be, Macy, Kinsey and Abby. I just don't think that they make that much glitter to keep those three happy. And all the screaming going on while Robbie is chasing them. I'm pooped just thinking about it. Tracy, that is such a cute pic of you two. Purple Power to Janie. And also to Pam. Pam, that is too funny about you sitting in the car because it's too cold. Right now it's 8 degrees here. Is that cold enough for you?? LOL.

Oh Judy, Thank you so much for the rules. I've been looking for them and I guess just not looking in the right places. I'm going to print them out and post them on my fridge. So far today...... 2 scrambled eggs & 1 piece of toast 2 celery sticks with blue cheese For dinner a chef's salad Oh, and all my water. TracyKs. Love the pic and and the jacket looks too cute. Yesterday Hubby came out to the kitchen while I was getting things ready and paid you a very nice compliment. I was so proud of him. Jane, Thanks for the text. I will be gone most of the day tomorrow. I'm taking my older Sis and driving down South to Joplin. Our Aunt lives there and we are going to take her out to lunch. I'll be back later in the evening. Have a great evening.

Here's a few more pics. She had such a good time.

Good Morning Girls. It's 2 degrees here and the sun is shining brightly. It's only supposed to get to 8 degrees today but with an even bitter wind chill. They are calling for a snow storm on Tuesday, so it looks like a white Christmas for us. We had a ball yesterday. It was so much fun and I am a total idiot. My hand to mouth diesese was in full effect for the day. But we all had a blast. Here's some pics of Abby and some of her cookies she made. Terry, I am so jealous of your new china. It is absolutelty georgous. I've always wanted to do something like that. Right now all I have is two snowman plates that hubby and I use during the holiday. Your so lucky. OK, It is my vow that as of today I am going to give it the old college try again. I have to. It's out of control again. One thing I did do good yesterday was drink my water, other than that it was out of control. I told my family that we are making some major changes around here. One of them being that we no longer eat at 8pm. It's no later than 6:30 now. More fruits and veggies and back to following the rules. Speaking of the rules. Where can I go to find the list of them again. I tried looking on my Doctor's website but couldn't find them. Do any of you have the rules? Thanks if you do. Have a great day. I'm off to church here pretty soon.

The house is ready and the food is all out. I just need to go change my clothes and go pick my Sis up. I'll check in later and post pics. Have a great day.

Good Grief, 8am and I have already placed an order for 5 large pizzas to be delivered at 1pm. Will the food never end????????????????? Today we are having our Christmas here at my house. Which is good because I have totes for everyone to take all the cookie, candy and pizza home with them. Purple Power to my Janie Love you girl.

I thought that was what you called those things that kinda slipped out as you get older. You know, when you're walking thru the grocery store with your kids and a little toot comes out.

For the love of Pete............Michelle, could you make my siggy say the "coolest drunkest chicklet"????? Will someone please take the margi out of my hands??????

Here's my report........ Water Water 1 breakfast taco water handful of nuts cookie dough cookie dough chex mix 3 onion rings and 1 rib water peanut cluster Now out to dinner with friends and family. The good news is that the Doctor's office called and they want to schedule me to come into talk to the Doc about my eating. Good Lord above. Tomorrow is when everyone is coming over and I will finally be rid of all the cookies and crapola. It's done and over with.

Good Morning. No school closings so I guess I have to go in to work. I actually don't have to work till 9:30 but I'm covering the south store this morning for another girl. So Off I go. Somebody text me if anyone hears from Jane. Jenn, have a safe weekend. Make good choices today. Now if I could just listen to myself.

The cashew clusters are made. The dipped caramels are made. The ritz PB crackers dipped in Choc are made. I sure hope the family eats all of this on Saturday. Or I will make them take it home.

I just finished making my second batch of saltine cracker candy. Some how half of the first batch is missing. HMMmmmmmmmm. I also have the cookie dough for my pressed cookies ready to go. Tomorrow I will get the cookie cutters out and get them all made and ready for Saturday. I Solemnly swear that the first day after Christmas I will be JUNK free. Not a speckle of crap will pass these lips. I'm going to hold myself accountable for every piece of morsel that goes in my mouth. And I hope these words don't come back and choke me sometime.
