Hi everyone, just checking in. I am home from work and kind of a mess over this entire bf / court thing. I have not heard from him since earlier which is not like him at all. and I am weak when it comes to him, so I may have to hire an attorney to protect myself. i'm going to read the paper and try to find a job... and you better beleive when I grt one that I will not be working that weekend in may!

Hi michelle just checking in... you know I'm there and will be driving! can't wait

Michelle -- sign me up.... I got my first pedicure last fall, I'm in love... due for another as a matter of fact. I love flip flops and sandles so my toes have to look nice at all times.

I vote Splash Mt too! Pam, I got a bottle of tequilla for xmas, I'll bring it with me, and have a great margarita specialty. I only make those for special occasions and when I have company. The grape vodka is so good an only $12 a bottle... LOL

Morning gals Just getting up, woke up at 8 an mom was in the shower so I stayed in bed waiting for her to get out, next think I know it is 10am. nice. I'm going to shower and go get some more jeans... I got so many comliments and wear the others to work only and not care how disgusting they get and wear the cute ones to work on nights that I know I am not going to get dirty. Well, dbf wants to work through this, but I'm getting the feeling something bigger is going on. He wants to sit down and talk through it tomorrow, nice huh... I don't know what to think. Terry - i love looking at your jewelery, I get so many compliments on my necklace and love it to death. Judy - that is so nice, enjoy the Bobster at church today. You are funny - now if they could do a tummy tuck that way too... LOL Tracyks - isn't it funny to think how full you were and I had 3 small drinks on new year eve and I was feeling quite good, i'm sure you had a great time. Tracyk - I was looking in the mirror yesterday and noticed how small my legs look, so I can't imagine how tiny your legs are. I have not done my measurements in a while - maybe i'll do them today. All I know is i'm getting 16 mid rise levi's today and I can't remember ever getting a 16 levi let alone mid rise and getting so many compliments. Love you all, thanks for helping me make it this far

Thanks you you Judy, Crystal light is a major part of my life, and mixes well with lots of things... Anyone a vodka drinker... rasp crystal light and Grape Vodka... taste like grape coolade... yummy I am again excited about this trip, just what i need

yup... now that i think about it... going to be in a court room full of people who hate me and blame me for all their problems... JOY Pam - how nice, you are so cute... is that a little stud I see there? you guys look so happy night all

Hi gals. going to bed. so sick and tired. I ate 1/4 of a pc of garlic bread with a 1/2 chicken tender tonight and my stomach is not happy. was down to 207 = but i feel like i'm retaining tonight so keep your fingers crossed for me , or maybe i won't weigh in until Tuesday when ai have not been at work, either way, i know i'm not back up to 217 again. Tracyks, CONGRATS... i'm going to catch you if it kills me ... LOL you deserve those bananna's from Pam Kat - dbf is dad of both my kids.... and I understand his accident screwed him up and I'm surprised he didn't do this months ago, court is going to suck... going to get to see his x wife too, and that is not going to be pretty

Laura i'm sorry you are getting worse, feel better! My ear and head feel great today, but now I'm shitting my brains out and after my lunch time antibiotic now I want to thow up. ... TMI sorry... this is why I don't like to take antibiotics unless I am beyond the point of sick. Well, I guess I'll be in Onderland in not time at this rate. I'm down 10lbs in a week off to work, have a great night all

Good morning everyone Man o man - the saga of my life continues. dbf forgot to mention that he is going to try to reduce his support because he is not making as much blah blah blah... sell your new bike you just had to get! anyway, other guy who i've mentioned got mad at me a while back and didn't talk to me, well we have been talking as friends and it was his birthday last night. I'm so sick from antibiotics and said I was not drinking... well I did have 2 since on my way out I got the court papers. I was purple from head to toe I was so hurt he didn't tell me. Anyhoo....other guy out of no where tells me that he is madly in love with me and wants to make it work and when I told him I was mental and had lots of issues, he said at least mine were alive (his dd's mother passed away this year, she was young and had a heart attack in her sleep) What a mess! This guy is a great friend, and I met his family last night and they were the nicest bunch of italians and we had so much fun - but how can i do anything when my heart is somewhere else and I am working on my self improvement phase. I want to just enjoy for a short time, feel good about me...and take the compliments.... OK SO last nights NSV ... I wore the new jeans to work, my bff told me I should get the smaller size, but anyway, they are midrise so the tattoo was showing all night... another guy at work who has seen it an liked it kept coming over to see me last night and said how much he enjoyed looking at it and to wear the jeans next week when he works. NICE... now that is what I mean about boosting my self esteem! Well, i'm drinking coffee and going to put the holiday boxes up in the attic and get ready for work, I'm there for the night. Hope everyone is having a great day... Oh, warming up here too, dishwasher is thawed out this morning... YIPEE Love you all

Hi gals Just checking in. I vote with TracyK! Sometimes flights into albany are not too expensive and if anyone wants to fly in to Alb that is ok and have a place to stay too. I can put 5 including me in my suv.

Tracy how nice... I'm glad you are so happily married now, but that must make you feel so incredible. I am off to work in a few, my stomach is a mess, had some pudding for lunch and it does not feel like it is going to be with me long. I hate antibiotics but maybe I'll catch up with you all SMYLY - we all seem to be stuck... don't quit, just pop in more often, you will realize you are not alone

You all know I'm in 100% my bags are already packed... oh wait .. I'll have to repack when I lose another 10-20 lbs by May!

Laura go get antibiotics!!! I can't keep anything in me but my ear feels better, still hurts but better than yesterday and my head that I didn't think was full let go after 3 doses of meds and was actully burning, so I'm thinking sinus infection too? Pam - I loved the simpsons lap band episode. I am a fan anyway... Funny thing... that was a really old episode too and funny how they called it "staple" and "bypass surgery" I didn't have any issues watching it. Well, off to try to eat some pudding... was 217 last friday, back down to 208.5 today - maybe I'm going in the right direction and with having antibiotic bathroom issues, maybe i'll hit onderland soon. On the meds for 10 days ya know. LOL

Jane - I am so sorry, I did not win. Not that I am ungreatful, but I was a freaking mess last month and just went through piles and piles of mail over the last 2 days and just found them. I am trying hard... so on another note, I'm only getting $3k back on my taxes if I'm lucky, doesn't matter I made no money and had over $15k in deductions, i should have had gotten a ton back. Last year it was 8k until I added my 401k and my income was only $10k more with unemployment and no bonus money. WTF. I need to get some serious cash so I can get out of this shitty place I'm in. Waiting for firm numbers from unemployment but I'm in super trouble. Why can't it be better??? My bubble can't burst this early in the year!

Hello gals. Well, getting closer every day to our trip. I am so excited and anxious and wish it was sooner but I know that is just going to be perfect. Should we start to make a final head count and commitment so we can finalize plans by the first week or so in Feb? Should we post on the Violet site to see if any of the new girls want to join us and if they are going to hang around? I think Suzie is here to stay with us for the long haul. Anyway, just some thoughts....

Morning gals well, another day. My ear feels a little better, I'm so glad that I took care of that last night, or I would have been in very bad shape. I know tmi, but .... I think i had a sinus infection going on because all kinds of stuff is breaking up an my head feels so much better than it has in days. Bad thing... I don't take antibiotics because I am the one who gets all the side effects, so my stomach is a mess. OK that is an understatement! I've been up since 5 with sharp stomach pains and in the bathroom. I guess for the next few days I shouldn't have to worry about getting my fiber sure in. LOL I'm going to hang close to home until work so I'm sure I'll be checking in. I'm babysitting right now and going to try to sleep for a few when the bus comes. It is so cold here again today but temp went up to +7 Yipee.

Hi gals, just checking in. I woke up feeling not great and by 7 at work I have a horrible ear infection - called my dr and she gave me antibiotics, so i'm going to bed. did really good with food and then had 1/4 of a pc of garlic bread and 1 small chicken tender because I had to dbl up on the meds - but just had enough to have a little something in my stomach. ttyl

Judy - HUGS So I just had a great NSV... another silly one but I'm thirlled. I am freezing, it is 11 here today so I decided to take a bath. I have not taken one in such a long time because I was not covered in water and it is a deeper tub with jets. (why do i complain about not having a hot tub????) well anyway, had quite a few inches of water covering me in the tub today... I was so excited and now can't wait to get my bathroom painted and put back together next week! Well, off to dry my hair and gead to work, don't want to but i guess i have to. ttfn

I HATE THE COLD!!!!! finally done washing dishes and they ds wanted mac & cheese for lunch... mmmmmmmmmmmm looked so good, but I had my pudding I don't want to go to work... i would just be so happy staying inside today. I hope everyone is staying warm

Tracy - I sometimes feel like I need a fill because I can eat but the last few days I am not able to eat much, probably because I've been so bad lately and pushing it. I am on day 2 of protein and I'm going to stick to it. I am still up and down but back down yesterday so i'll take it. I don't go back to the dr until the 21st I think. So cold here overnight so I just loaded my dishwasher and prayed it worked (the line always freezes) and nope... so I should have just washed them - so I had to unload it and wash the entire thing by hand... YUCK Off to wash round 2 of dishes, plates and silver should be dry to put away. OH TRACY - Love your Jan pic!!!!!

Morning gals. I flipped my mattress yesterday when i cleaned my room and I slept so great last night other than having to pee, for the first time in days. I got my mail yesterday and should not have opened it. I had 2 mtg pmts due and I knew I was going to have nasty grams but I paid them on the 31st and should have just tossed them, so i was stressed, but know they were paid. I hope to have my taxes done by the 20th and get money back and get my shit paid off. I only made $15,000 this year and my health ins and taxes should eat that away so I'll have a negative income which means big tax return - which is how I'm paying for our violet trip so I'll be wanting to send my share in the 1st week in Feb if that is ok. OMG -19 with windchill and monday it is going to be 50. No wonder why everyone is sick! Everyone is so quiet - has anyone heard from Judy? I am sure Haydee is around, I know she gets busy and goes a few days without checking in but Judy does usually check in daily. off to drink my coffee Michelle, I'm sorry you have to "waste a day" but I'm sure you will have a great time. Have fun!

Congrats Panda.!!!!!
