Lucky #7 are still going strong !!!
Good Evening Gang I can't freaking figure out how to down load my pic's like I use to with this new computer - I think I did it - it's diff than before - will ck after I post - Candice - What else do I need to see the doc about - what else are they going to ck - had ekg - it's fine - Had blood work - it's find - had mamo it's fine - blood pressure fine - what else are they going to do in a physical - I haven't I had one.. I have appointment 5/27 w/new doc - made it when I wasn't feeling good - will most likely keep it - but really don't know what else a doc can do to ck me out - except a complete mri/cat scan of my body and that's not covered by insurance - there has to be a problem for a cat scan and hell they cost tons of $$$ - I gotta pay 35% after insurance pays.. So you are going to go see Linda and go to her retirement party - glad to hear that Want first hand knowlegde of how our Linda is doing - Just cuz you are traveling doesn't mean you have to go hog wild w/your eating - even on vacation - I may have a little more sugar than I do at home - but I don't go hog wild - I really have made this a lifestyle change - so I'm not dieting and I'm not worrying about my weight 24/7 - gotta say my plan has worked for me - I'm almost 4 yrs out and gotta say that I haven't really had a problem maintaining my weight for the last 3 yrs.. Karla - 100 yr flood zone means that 100 yrs may have a flood - I don't write much of it anymore since I do commercial lines not personal - so if your agent says you can't you can't - You will be fine Glad you were able to get out and walk !!! Karri - Glad you are sleepimg I remember when you couldn't - so that's good - it's good for healing - I know you said a long time ago you might end up in AZ - sound like you just may ;0) Melissa (dil) got her surgery date 7/11 !!!! Sleeve - so if Debbie will come and watch the dogs I will go up there for a day or 2 when she has surgery.. I may ask Andrew too - Jospeh's 40th bday is 7/15

Good Evening Gang Linda I feel good - was pooped after all that cleaning - just think I can rack some of it up to old age.. Did you get the pure pt shots - what flavor did you get - I put them in the fridge - then poor them over ice and add water - or diet crangrape juice (since I got grape)..

I never lost any hair - I still use butter & fats but not like I use too.. I agree about being too tight - yesterday I was - but I hadn't drank enough either - Denise - Do you still have to deal w/all those unrully kids !!! How is your Mom?? LOL about the Virgins - but those kind of men don't care what you know - they only care about themselves - women are no better than dogs to them..

Not much to report - gym tonite - home - need to feed the dogs - fix me dinner and watch t.v
