Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Hello all. I have a headache, part allergies, part learning to knit, and part debate!!! A good friend of mines dad died and his memorial is tomorrow. It is sort of sad, it really marks the first friend of mine (my age) who has lost a parent. It seems like I am not entering another part of adulthood. Sort of sucks. I like being my parents daughter. I will never find anyone who spoils me like my dad. My dad takes my coffee out of the microwave before his and my moms so it won't be too hot for me. He puts the right size ice cube in my coffee when he brews it. He would give me strawberry shortcake all separate so they don't touch. He opens and closes doors for me, and the list could go on. People say that is why I am not married because my dad has spoiled me so much. My mom is like my best friend. We have had our moments, but I can't imagine anyone else as my friend and mom. I can't understand what Laura is going through, since I still have my parents, plus her family was very dysfunctional, and I am sure that is adding to her feelings right now. I just want all my friends to get together and hug!! Hey maybe Obama and McCain can hug!!! I am really rambling here, guess it just kind of makes me feel like a different thing here. Well I hope everyone has pleasant dreams and sleeps well tonight!!

I sold my gold back in March when it was $1000 an ounce. Was a great time to do it, plus silver was real high. When I traded in gold and silver coins they were buying at 13x's the face value, Charlie called today because he wanted to turn in his silver half dollars, they were only giving 3x's. He said last time we were getting ripped off. I felt like saying see what happens when you wait!! If you do turn in old gold, go to a coin shop and they will buy it. Take out any stones, because they throw them away. I made a nice profit, I spent some in Texas, and had some left over. I learned to knit today. Although I started off with 20 stitches in a row, now I have 29? I don't know how I made extra stitches. I am trying to keep my hands busy. Sometimes at work I only have a few minutes, not enough time to do counted cross stitch, by the time I finally find out what I need to do, my next customer is there. I am rambling, don't know why. Hope everyone has wonderful dreams!! Jane

Ouch, sounds really painful!!! Hope Suzanne gets better, will not send her purple power though, I think she is overloaded with purple, how about beige power/thoughts?!? Kat you are sooo right, I wouldn't want to be president for anything. First, I am not into a "power" trip, second since I am single, I can't imagine having to take care of more than myself!! I think you TracyK have done great!!!!!!!!!! We have all backslided!!! I regained 30 pounds!!! I am still in Rocktober mode, but not as strong as you right now!!! Keep on keepin on!!!! Hugs to you Michelle, feel better and hope you get a good nights sleep. Congrats Pamela on your work progress!!!!!!! Everyone else have a great week!!!

I know we don't like to talk about politics here, but this could be the answer to our election!:tongue2: There's an effort to elect an unknown random person as President... and it's someone we know!

I took a mini nap, after 4 phone calls about the election and my mom calling I got up! I thought about you Pamela!!!!!! I am reading an interesting book called a bite at a time. I haven't gotten very far but it is about the inspiration/motivation you need to lose weight. If it ends up being as good as I think I will send it on to anyone when I am done. Hope the walk was fun. I bet that was so depressing Tracy!! Pamela get back to work!!!!!!!!!!!:smile2::crying:

Just got home from work early. It was super slow this afternoon, so I totally cleaned out the refrigerator at work. It was so gross!! Some of that stuff is so old. I cleaned it also, left towels soaking the bottom gunk and told Charlie to clean it before he leaves. I have a feeling I will come to work Tuesday with wet towels in the bottom of the refrigerator!!! I think I might take a nap, while I am napping I am going to be sending purple vibes to PAMELA TO FINISH CHAPTER 4!!!!!!!!!!

Tracy congrats!!!! I don't think you are silly at all!!! Suzie and Tracyks have fun on your walk!! Next week is the Autism walk, but I am going to work, it is a small walk, not even a mile, so it is not really worth it to me to miss my morning business. Speaking of work, I need to get my butt in gear!!! Have a great day and Happy birthday Tracy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good Evening!! Just got home a bit ago and read the posts that I missed due to work (darn work), and I was to touched. I was touched that we could reach out by phone when one was in trouble, both Tracy's had wonderful eloquent posts about 'the feeling' and Michelle, well you just said it all. It makes me so glad that I am a real part of this. I only wish we had internet at work, although I am always with somebody so I guess that wouln't work would it? Anyways I am tired and going to lay in bed and watch tv. Tomorrow is not such a busy day at work. Have a good weekend and a early happy birthday Tracy!!!!!!!!!!!!

Way to go Tracy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Michelle, put the scale in your trunk. I agree the fried eggs sounded odd, I guess you can fry anything. They were talking at work the other day about fried twinkies, that seems odd also. Oh well off to start my day!! Hugs to you Jenn!!!!!!!!!

wow it is making me think that I need some xanax. All this time I only thought food was scrumptious!!! I hope October is a kind month for us all!!! Remember as we bid September adieu that we are all great people who have lost weight!!!! Maybe not all we wanted but we still lost. Happy October!!! One of my customers used to tell me that when you first wake up on the first of the month you are supposed to say rabbit, rabbit, rabbit, and then your month is supposedly without issues!! Remember you are not supposed to say anything until you say rabbit three times first. Jane
