Hi Ivan You had me going for a minute ~ I was like WOW I am totally off a day.. I too am struggling to keep the added pounds off. I joined Curves but have not actually went in anymore to work out. I have it all planned in my head what I need to do, but getting the rest of me to cooperate is something else. Kuddos to your wife on the 50lbs.. Later Bye

Hi Ex Girl Did they even show you any of the Photo's??? What was the reason you had the endo done?

OMG thank you for the idea. Inner tube!!! I totally forgot about that. I need to call and fine where I can get one.. We use to have a place here many many moons ago where I once went and did the inner tube. It was awesome. Now we only go to the campus cause they have a decent hill that the kids can go down.. Sound like so much fun in your neck of the woods. I know yesterday I they closed I-70 for alot of accidents. I did fine on my way to work but I hear they said it is snowing again..

Hi there, I tried to post yesterday and lost it all. Well I am back here at work and YEA HURRAY we have snow.. I ususally do not care to have it but the kids are so excited to go sledding that we are going to have tons of fun if it last till the weekend. The city has a thing where they offically light up the parks lights and this year they are going to offer carriage rides.. The kids are going to love it.. Yes that means I will have to be bundled up cause you all know since we have lost our insulated layer ~ well I am down right freezing all the time. We had a great Thanksgiving and cannot wait till Christmas, unlike the early birds some of you are at shopping, I have yet to start. My car seems to be working now since the ex felt sorry for me or better yet earned some extra cash to give it a tune up. Talk about a smog mobile. I did not even want to drive it around. I love Sherry's story about people watching. My grandma/mom use to do that all the time, except she did not break out in a song to pass the time. Wish I could have seen that... I have read all the way back to Thanksgiving day and have some more reading to do... So hopefully I can come back later today and do some personals. Love ya all Hey Kat - is the snow sticking now??? Chalio says he does not only want to sled but snow board.. OMG such a little adventurer..Is that a word?? BBL

Just thought I would stop in. Guess where I am ??? Working ~ yes I must be insane but I had so much to do that I figured I would come in today and then take the rest of the week. Well I must say ~ I am jealous ~ Kat is right, Mandy looks like Abi's sister.. Beautiful skin I must say:) Both you and Abi have such beautiful eye's.. I got my car back - at least it is road worthy. Water pump and timing belt were replaced. Thank God that I had a little extra cash to afford the rental and the repairs. Could not have done it without the overtime I was putting in. I ended up not working yesterday because I felt so guilty taking the boys to the sitter again. They were there for a good while on Sat. I instead took them on a outing to see Santa and ride around in a horse drawn carriage. They just loved it.. I promised them as soon as we have extra money again.. Knock on wood ~ that i will take them on a carriage ride in the snow and we will have tons of fun. Anyway the guy or place that fixed the car does not want me to come back and was glad to get rid of me. I hounded since Sat. He did not pick up the car till after 9:00am and when I told him the problem and what he would have to do to fix it, well he agreed. Come Sat I drive over there after 3pm and it is still sitting in the lot. Oh man I blew a fuse and let him have it. I called in the Ex to come to talk with him and when he mentioned Deposit to fix it. That was the wrong thing to ask me.. I am just happy when my nasty alter ego came out and let him know what he was going to do and it had better be fast. I will have to post personals later when I get home or tomorrow when I am off. BBL

I knew it.. I was trying to watch and remember the photo's you had posted..

Mandy don't tell me you were one of my pre op Nurses?? I actually had a panic attack and clutched my overnight bag.. I was leaving. Who cared if I was taking the saline drip with me. Cassie - Kat and everyone said it very well.. Good Luck you will get through this.. Well I am here at work so I best catch up with everyone a little later.. They took my car this morning so hopefully it is gonna be able to get repaired. I just cannot help but laugh about every little thing that happend yesterday.

I am justed stopped in to post this.. caught a glimpse of some pretty kittie cats.. went to lunch to day and my car broke down. I was lucky I pulled into someones dirt driveway. Anyway the water pump broke. I called the ex and he sent the mechanic to look at it. Anyway the top button on my blouse opened showing cleavage and my black bra. Ok I was trying to find a way to get it buttoned with out making it look obvious. Well it did not happen. To add to the situation he looks at the jug of anti freeze I had just put in the radiator and says did you put that in? Well of course I did I say!! Well the radiator should be de iced he tells me. OMG I could have died.. Good thing the freaken De Icer for the windows leaked out the flippen water pump.. That my freinds is my blond Moment for the day... anyway I am in a rental and still looking for someone to repair the damm thing.. Please Pray that I get a good someone and inexpensive...

Good Morning, HAPPY FRIDAY Well today is a busy day for me since I will be taking all next week off. We usually get 2 days but I decided to take off the whole week and have lunch with chalio and visit Crisitan in school. And of course visit Curves since I have not been there for a few weeks now. And of course just relax and lurk more on LBT... OH YEAH BABY Cassandra I understand your pain all too well. I would not think a sinus infection would stop your having surgery but that is my opinion - not like I know much.. But all the same try to nip it in the bud now is a good move.. I have constant problems with mine... Pat ~ so are you going to get the 9" for the same price as the other one? I bought one of those trees with the lights on it but I did not notice till I got it home that the dang lights stayed on and did not go on and off.. So I am thinking of buying tree number 3 here pretty soon.. Dianne ~have fun on your trip ~~ :biggrin1: Sherry ~ you go girl ~ I wish I had all your energy.. Eileen ~ I wanted to bake the pies this year and was telling my family exactly what I was doing from scratch and would you believe they would rather have store bought. The nerve!!~~ I mean would it really hurt them just to drink a little Pepto just in case.. :hungry: Are you joining her at school??? Have fun Kat & Cindy ~ awesome on the loss:clap2: :clap2: - I think I am holding steady so we will see next week when I get on the scale at curves.. Well I best be getting to work. I have 2 big meetings today ~ wish me luck all goes good..

OMG LOL I cracked up out loud from Eillen's retreat.. that was so funny:) I really needed something to cheer me up. I am not downanymore in the dumps like I was last night with the childcare and favortisim. Anytime I think of what my boys could have and do not it just sends me through the roof. Well I got a call from Cristian's teacher again. Seems he cut to the front of the line and told his teacher if she more or less had a problem with it to call me, so guess who was waiting by her side when she did. Anyway she gives him the phone and he tells me he was doing real good. OMG I wanted to laugh but knew I had to be stern with him. Anyway my sister who he knows takes no crap is coming over tonight to talk to him. He hung up on her earlier when she called him. Anyway Thank you to all for your kind words. I know it made me feel bettter.. How about you Mandy? All we can do is keep on.. Well I am done for the day - not going to do personals since it is almost time to leave.. Love ya all and welcome back Eileen

You are one tough cookie to have put up with all that Mandy. Abi is going to be just loving and caring as you and the angels she has around her.. on another note I knew I should not have thought or put words down about the heathen (EX MIL) I went to pick up the kids and my ex SIL was really quite. I thought maybe shomething was up but did not ask ~ anyway she walked out the door and said she had something to tell me.. WHOA NELLY Anyway her mom has been going to the house when my youngest is there. I told her before I do not want that women there. I understand it is her mom but dang it could she just stop already and go visit when the kids are gone. She never went to visit her before she started watching my boys nor wehn she had her baby. Anyway I told her that I would not be mad if she just said straight out she did not want to watch my kids. I have been secretly looking around for some time. I really do not want to take them away from her but I really am starting to stress out. Her Mom has been causing her grief in other areas and it is just caring over. I also told her in my Temp Orders her mom was not to be around the kids with out their dad with them ~of course that is something that did not carry or was not written in the final orders, but they do not know that. I don't know ~ this is going to be such an inconvience to switch them but say a prayer for me ladies that it all works out and the heathen will crawl back into her hole. I hate to be that way about anyone but I did so much for that family it is just unreal that almost a year has past that I stopped talking to them that here they are again and trying to stir the pot by having her chose. I told her that I want her to do eveything she can in this life time for her mom. I have stressed this even with my ex. But this women flat out tells her daughters that she prefers her boys over them. She hugs and kisses them like she is the girlfriend mind you. well I have gone on long enough - sorry if I bored you all. Just unsure of what I am going to do. I guess the reason she wanted to watch my kids is that while she was in Mexico we (ex) put her in a private religous school and I believe she is trying to pay me back for the money we spent. The only reason she did not stay was because her mom and her oldest brother told her girls never amount to anything. Heathens,.:angry

WOW Mandy I feel for you.. I cannot tell you how disappointing it is when a grandparent acts like that to their G~ children. My 2 children have both sets of grandmas and they are both worthless. My mom favors my sisters boy Takes him to and from school ~ spends the nights and even has his own room in the house. When I go over to visit and it is rare she watches my 2 like a hawk so that they do not disturb anything of get any of his toys. On their Dads side his mom is so caught up with visiting others that she never had time for them except to belittle them (the heathen). Now she cannot even do that. I just pray that the day I have grandchildren I show them love all the same. You are a good mommy with all the love you give Abi and then some. Chicken Nuggets just took on a whole new meaning.. Poor little one..

Hi girls, just stopping in for a bit.. Going to do this fast since I have alot to do today.. Patty - I am praying and keeping my fingers crossed for you.. I truly believe that the Lord is always showing us signs he is right here with us when we need him to console us ~ I always remember "Footprints" Pat ~ I love the Tree - It is beautiful ~ go for it... Betty ~ how is that foot doing?? Irene / Rene - Did your Kitties miss you? Were they happy to pounce on you when you came back? Mandy ~ You are so blessed with all your babies. I love the mickey on the cat he is so cute.. Hope your little one gets better from the pox. You know Mandy though we always want the best for our dear friends sometimes they have those rose colored glasses on and only see what they want. Not untill they take them off and see the person for what they really are do they need us. Just hang in there and wait, don't let someone like her come between you and your friend.. Kat ~ count me in ~ I do believe you have my address.. Dianne ~ still no luck with the bra?? I wear an underwire but my port is about an inch below so it does not bother it at all. I sent a Prayer for Jay _ sorry to hear about the cancer coming back. I hope they can cure it this time around. Kat ~ what did I miss about Donna? Was there a reason for her leaving? I really thought she was out and about but was going to come back. I hope everything is ok with her family and especially her son. Sherry ~ that is so cool you can work from home. I do not have the option. My boss does not think I need to but he does and takes advantage of it. I get more work done when he is not here. LOL Eileen - how is your back doing? I have been quite stiff for weeks, finally broke down and got my massager out of the closet. I laid on it for a while and fell asleep. Now I am sore ~ go figure Darcy ~ How are your babies doing? Cindy ~ WOW ~ the time is almost upon you.. Sorry if I missed anyone - gotta go BYE

That is so sad - I loved his music..

Hi ya all... In a deep Texas Drawl We are all feeling a lot better today. My thoat has eased up a bit but the weird thing is ~~~ I do not eat past 3:pm.. I can drink alot ~ juice, Water but no food. Hummm Now I am really curious to see the scope results. Don't know if it is virus or band at this point. Anyway that will happen soon enough.. Then I will be in panic mode Irene ~ Blame it on the other Driver:) Could not been your fault!!! You know they had the reunion this past weekend and they sent out the invite weeks ago but I was to scared to drive by myself and it was way to expensive to fly with the boys. Granted if I would have decided to go in the spring I guess I could have saved. Anyway no one from my family called that day to even say hi so best I did not go.. On the other hand when I do get out that way it will be to see you all.. Barrett's was not band related but I really think sinus issues over the years added to the problem. You know with me it is never something easy it is either one end or the other... If you know what I mean Kat ~ HAPPY ANNIVERSARY ~~~ How were things?? The PG version Betty ~ I love the Spring / Summer weather too. Last nightt we had a freezing rain. Now the sun is out shining. Believe it or not. I have not worn my winter coat yet and I am usually the one crying cause it is freezing. I need to join Irene in ward so I can be checked out too. Sherry ~ I hear You. I tell you!! The problem was resolved and has come around to bite me in the ARSE again. I just said you know let me take care of it and everyone else involved and see it through the end. But you know I get no further on the totem pole.. How is the new Position going? Are you in it yet?? Well I would love to stay and do more personals but I have to keep coming back and leaving. We have a status meeting pretty soon. You all take care

Just stopped in to say HI... Well everything worked out here at work and come to find out it was an obsolete product and that is why I did not report it.. Not to mention I prayed about it all morning.. Well my 2 boys as well as me are sick - flippin virus.. Anyway my throat is acting up again Virus or something?? Damm it. Anyway better get to work - BBL

Good Morning Ladies, I like that on Eileen.. So you hooking up with Rene? That sounds so cool. Can you all believe I have never been on a airplane? One day though for sure. Cindy ~ That is so Awesome!!! I listened to his speech on the radio when we were waiting for him to fly out. He did sound good I will have to say. It is only respectful to be gracious to our President even if we agree or disagree with him. I try to show that too my children. Where we were at was at the back side of a neighbor hood and there were only about 10 people in all there with us. No protesters so that was good. I did go drive by where they all were and explained to the kids why they were there. For me that day just in hopes the we would see him was a non political day. Anyway I am glad it is all done.. The voting / bashing that is.. Dianne ~ I wear a 36DDD or Better yet a 36EEE I found them at Dillards. Do you have one where you are at? I tell you if I could just let some air out of them I would. The bras are pretty comfy as long as they are snug.. I hope when TOM comes to visit it will be as kind to me. I am rather going through somekind of mood crap which tells me it's on it's way. Chrispy & Sherry ~ I am so jealous ~ I have to left feet and cannot dance worth a heck. I need to check into something like that. Usually when I see them offering something it always says something like prefer Partners. HUmm:faint: Since I joined Cureves I have not been back - how bad is that?? I will go for sure tomorrow.. and Friday Mandy ~ Oreo still by your side??? Cuddling??? Patty ~ How are you doing? How is the School situation? Hi Betty ~ Kat ~ Pat ~ what you all up too ~ Still training Darcy? Sorry If I missed anyone.. Well not much happening here. I finally after weeks of hounding them got my appt to do my yearly follow up for the Barretts. I have a stong feeling if it is worse that I am for sure going to lose my band. I guess I am just preparing myself for the worse. I have been for the past couple of months been having problems swallowing or feeling a ball in my throat. I went to my PCP last week and she said I did have lumps or bumps on the back of my tongue. Anyway she said it was a virus infection and it worked it's way up from my lungs. I think it is my dang sinus drainage. Anyway I go in for the scope on the 21st. The Doc I see told me last year that I should take the band out cause he did not like the position it was in and if he has his way It might happen. Will let you know once I see my pics. Just Pray for me. Ever since I saw that the Governer of Texas passed away from Esoph Cancer I am pretty worried. Other than that I know my Aunt Flo is coming around the corner since I am having terrible mood swings and am just trying to kick it. I think the situation here at work adds to it also. Calgon take me away Well better get to work I am in boiling water for a mistake I made and am trying to find a solution.. :think

OMG all the stories are just hilarous ~ I have been laughing all day. Well cannot stay long ~ out the door. Patty I am so glad the bank fiasco has worked out.. And I will be praying a good outcome on your IEP metting ~ and for you too Mandy.. Well today is the second day of Chalio's new medication. After talking to the doc I opted to try the Daytrana Patch for ADHD. My little guy has stomach pain everynight and I hate to see him want to eat and then struggle with it. I hope it works good for him. The down side it is so new none of the Pharmacies carry it and it has to be special ordered. Mandy speaking of being stole from. When I went back to my house on Sat - Emrg Potty ~ there was a cop dusting my neighbors car. I asked what Happened? He said someone broke into her car the night before. Scary to me since she is on my bedroom side and I did not hear a thing. I ususally lock my driveway gate but there are times I get lazy and leave it open. Well not anymore ~ I told my boys they need to remind me all the time in case I forget. Well everyone I hope you are all doing great and keep on tootin~ LOL

HI ya all just stopped in. I got alot of pics of the helicoptors but who knows if we saw the Prez. the kids were happy running around and waving. That was so cool cause they were right over our heads. Other than that I need to clean the house. Well gotta Go ~ Kids are into something...

OMG Eileen you had me snorting about the aroma... Girl it is nice to see or hear you or read you.. You know what I mean.. I was here the other day and made a long long post, only to come back and it was all a gone.. Anyway not much happening in my neck of the woods Oh wait yes there is.. The President will be here tomorrow supporting Marilyn Musgrave. I wanted to take my kids in the hopes that they could see him but going to be to many people. I will settle for taking the binoculars and watching Marine One land. Well I best be getting back to work. Patty I would definetly talk with a Bank Manager to replenish your account. Did you make the police report? Hopefully it will all work out!!! PRAYING FOR YOU. Dianne ~ how are you doing? Is everything ok now? Rene ~ I had kuddos for you girlfriend ~ you have lost alot in the amount of time being banded and even pre.. What did you doc say? Did you get a fill? Hi Pat ~ How are you all doing (DS)? Kat ~ the boy sounds like a keeper. How is DH doing? I have not even been asked out on a date.. Humm maybe it's cause I am never out?? Oh Well ~ unapproachable is what my new name will be.. WOW Cindy ~ you are almost there? I have never had the bathroom done, just the garage/bedroom conversion and boy what a mess. I feel for you. Oh I lied when they put the tile down in the bathroom they took the toilet out. I had to run down my moms every little while, and the boys well you know ~ went out back. Eileen ~ I say ~~ Slap the Botch ~ how dare she!!! Abi sure made a cutie Pirate.. Well enough of a break ~ i hope this sticks now and I do not lose it...

Happy Halloweenie all.. I am bummed today ~ so was looking forward to wearing my costume today and NO I cannot ~ at least not at work. They sent out a memo before I left that said No costumes. BUMMER Oh well ~ I can dress up when I take the kids out tonight ~ that is unless I am still in my pissy mood. We are having a pot luck today and I hate it when people put down salad or bag of chips.. LAZY I made chicken Mole ~ does not take alot of time but yet, it does need effort. Ok Sorry to $&%&. To bad you are all so far away or I would be joining Mandy for the drink and eating funnel cakes down Patty's. Well you all have a good day:) BBL

Thanks Mandy ~ I want them all:) I see some pretty amazing dogs but nothing near me for right now.

Hi Ladies Glad to have you back Eileen (not like you left us). I hear you on the costumes ~ Cristian has 2 so far ~ Fireman & Scooby. At least Scooby was chalio's when he was that age and now it fits little brother. Patty my heart goes out to you. I feel so sad that all this is happening. Take it one step at a time. Please dont' let the ex get to you cause all they want is a reaction (better said then done).. HUGS I know some churches here help with food vouchers - does yours? Well today I still am undecided about going to the party but I will force my self cause the kids really want to go. My brother came over this morning to make sure we were going. Humm ~ maybe he is up to something. The boys dad came over and gathered up all the leaves and cleaned the gutters. In turn I let him have His TV and stand. Don't worry we still have 3 in the house to watch, I also have plans of getting one of the flat screens sometime in the future when I can save some $$.. Well chicas would love to stay longer but got to get some work done.. Like Mandy I need to get to the pound, I really want an inside dog that does not shed alot and something small. My sisters Chiuhuaha had 4 pups but I do not want to start with potty training. And a cat ~ well we are allergic ~ go figure.

Just stopped in for a bit. Took the boys to the first Halloween Fesitval to start the weekend. I am still trying to get over how much I spent for 2 costumes. I have only in my adult life dressed up once but wearing your jammies does not even count in my book. I bought a witch costume or rather sexy witch. I sewed the cleavage area so it is just witch ( I will post a pic this weekend for sure). Tomorrow my brother has a halloween party. I have never been to one, still not sure if I will go. We will see.. I have asked for a raise every chance I get - We are in a hiring freeze therefore no money. Yeah right I have summed up everything I was doing to what I now do and how much headway I have made in these 2 weeks. Still no comment I have even told them I had another job offer - there was a reaction there but no more money. Rene I feel the same way - the bad apple that was let go spoiled it for the rest of our dept. She got away with so much crap, it was not even funny. Now that we realize what BS went on it is layed on us to resolve it. I like my company, cause our dept is really flexable but still It seems like it is a trade off if I were to go somewhere else I would not have the semi freedom I have now. Am I rambliing?? To much Kaluha Patty that would freak me out and I hope it all gets resolved quickly and no impact on you.. Mandy that was sweet of the doc to do that. In time an angel will be sent to you again. Well would love to do more personals but the kids are getting wild.. TTYL

Good Morning, Yep you all know I was on Ebay.. Again Well it is raining here or rather I think it is lite snow then melting when it hits the ground. I too want to stay in Bed till spring!!! Mandy ~ I am so sorry about your Furry baby.. My heart goes out too you.. Hugs & Prayers Eileen ~ Get the MRI as soon as you can. Prayers & HUGS Patty ~ I am with you there girlfriend ~ I am constantly checking on my son and his teachers at school to see exactly how they handle him. Right now he has a teacher who has a child with ADHD so it helps that she knows what to expect and how to handle him when he has skipped his meds. Wishing you the best in getting the meeting set and getting them to comply. Prayers that you load is lightened. Dianne ~ you are truly blessed ~ Great that she wanted to share the memory with her parents.. (EDI ~ Electronic Data Interchange) just one of those fancy words. Cindy ~ Just think of the end when it is all complete.. Sherry ~ "Yummy for the Tummy" as my little one says. I got this low cal Bananna bread with blueberry from a friend. I have yet to make it. Hi Annie ~ you sure have been busy... HI Betty ~ How are you doing in balmy Texas?? How is your foot? How is your DB doing? What happened to the dogs? Pat ~ HI Kat ~ You getting snow over there today? I dont even want to venture out!! BRRRRRRRRR to cold. How is DH hubby doing??? Hey Darcy ~ how are you doing? Busy? Have to tell you all that one of my Suppliers was so happy with me finishing up their year end report on the actual cut off date. They sent my boys chocolate covered apples.. Let me say they were good or tasting it was good. And at work not a mention of increase in pay ~ figures!!! Other than that just relaxing and doing curves twice a week ~ that is my goal.. I go today but do not want to come out in the snow.. gots to do it.. Well better get in the shower if I want to get to work BYE BYE
