Phyl Be sure to give Tracy our love - glad to hear all went well.. Ya I bet it's hard not being there. Yes it's allowable to skip a day like Karla said you have to give your muscles time to heal - but sore is good - you are building muscles - give it time you will find a program you like - I don't use a program = I do manuel quick start and just increase the speed and incline mannually - you should be able to do that on the bike - well you control the speed but you can increase the resitance for a few minute then go back to flat then increase again - back and forth - thats what I do. Candice - Good for you on your walk - who's your new walking buddy?? Yes - I love my Sister - I don't like that we have this between us - She hurt my feelings talking crap about me and my dad.. But this too shall pass - I knew it would eventually - since I talked to my Uncle a couple of weeks ago - it hasn't been on my brain 24/7. I will still be on guard with her and I don't like that - but eventually I guess that will go away too.. Karla Hugs - When did you buy your house - what changed $$$ wise since you purchased it. The way the news talks the banks don't want to have their properties forclosed on - let the stupid person talk to their boss - call them back tomorrow You may find a place to rent w/your animals they have them - just require a bigger deposit and you have small dogs - don't even mention the cat and say you have just 1 dog not 3. I know this has to be the worse thing for you right now and I wish there was something I could say to make things better - since I don't know what to say Can you refinance are you upside down on your house (what you paid for it and what it's worth now) Do you have a fixed or variable interest? Call back the mtg pple - you hear on the news all the time that they are working with pple I hate this laptop the whole finger mouse - i gotta go find the mouse for it.. If you quit paying for you DD health insurance would you be able to afford the house payment. In cali we have healthy families (medical/government insurance) yes they do here's the link Department of Public Health & Human Services - Montana Medicaid looks like up to age 19 - it's worth a try - cuz if I remember right that is costing you a lot of money - since she's 18 your income shouldn't matter.. Dont give up yet - you are moving in the right direction - Wish I could do more than offer a shoulder :

Phyl I have been saying prayers since yesterday - since I saw your post on FB Let us know how's she doing.. Hugs - she will be fine :0)

Good Morning I had gym last night did 4 miles burned 500 calories if you beleive the calorie counter on the treadmill :drool:) Came home Andrew said Sister called - so called her back - it was good it was about estate - she wants it over (probate) and I really think they just want their $$ but anyway we had a good conversation - they may be moving this way come May - Morongo Valley for my sis health - it's about 30-40 miles north east from me. So talked to her and bro in law and then started dinner came to turn on the computer (laptop) and Debbie showed up and stayed to 9 so never got on line last night Karla - I would come and hold your hand so just think I am on your shoulder - can't be with you in person but am with you in spirit. Again - you are going to have to face the fact that you are overwhelmed and can't continue down this road. Phyl loved the story - just scanned it - but got the drift - I wanted to post this morning.. Well I gotta call attonery & accountant this a.m. and get this estate closed so maybe me and sis can mend our relationship - I have to let go my hurt feelings - I gotta pratice what I preach - sounds like her health is getting worse - We use to get in fights along time ago - it was cuz she was mad at me about something - this time it's cuz I'm pissed - but like I told her last night - when she said we need to mend our freindship - I told her we are sisters and that's what counted.. So I am feeling a bit better about all this - I know I have to let go and with the estate setttled it may be easier.. Well gotta jump in the shower.. cbl hugs

Awesome Phyl..... :thumbup:

Good Morning Gang... Jackie - Glad you are felling better.. I am a food addict period too - I love my sweets at times - wish I didn't but I don't do them often either - I like to eat - last night had my fish rice veggies -and was full - so there went the theroy that I need a fill - everytime I think about getting one - then I get tight - When I woke up during the night raisins & walnuts - handfull - (karri says it's 1/4 cup) got stuckist.. I got on the scale this am up 1 pound - not good - but I will get it off - I didn't take the computer w/me this morning don't want to rush at lunch and if I do after work I won't go to the gym so I am going to the gym and I will use the laptop till I can get it fixed - paid bills yesterday from work as I had printed my spreadsheet - so I am cool there.. Thankfully I backed up my pic's on a click disk so I have that - that's the most important thing on the computer that can't be replaced.. Karla - Hugs - those medical bills are a debit just the same as a cc - so it might be something to look into - but I will drop it as you ask - Know that we are just trying to help you find a solution to your problems. You have been under alot of stress lately that makes your body hold on to the weight - Hows your Dad doing?? Phyl - OMG YOU LOOK FANTASTIC !!! You need to take that current pic and put is side by side to your pre-surgery pic.. A whole nother person !!! I am so looking forward to 11/13 can't wait !!!! At least we are having good weather for you - you will be tanner than me - but I have quit using my self tanners - cuz it had cooled off - wasn't wearing carpis but now it's heated up - but still haven't done it.. Steph - I saw on FB that you went to see Michael yesterday - how did that go?? How are you doing? Did you guys have face to face counsleing On the PS doc's the one in Costa Rica is USA trained supposeitly - I will ck that one you posted on phyll - If we go I would ck w/wasabubble butt - she's knows how to ck out mex doc and I think she has a link here to ck them out. Candice - How are you doing this morning - Do you think that maybe for Xmas you might get Peter an new pup ?? Yesterday was my Uncle's bday someone gave him 2 kittens - he's never had cats before - but they will be company for him - it's a family trait to be single in our old age - he's like me doesn't want a wife/gf.. I think he's going to get a kick out of these cats. Denise - I am going to hunt you down on FB - How are things going for you - how's the situation with DS and Mom.. Well, CBL xoxox Janet

My computer took a crap !!! I came home from work and turned it on - well it won't turn on --- unhooked it all and came and plugged it in another outlet - nothing - nada - WTF - Thank God I have my bro's lap top - I thought to myself- how am I going to talk to my girls !!! Have the stupid thing by the back door I guess it's going to best buy and the computer geeks... hopefully it's nothing too bad.. I would have to dig out the paper work - got it at curcuit city about 4 yrs ago - so I know not under warrenty Karla I am going to kick your ASS - you better not leave I have your phone # I will call you and bug you to death.. Are you on any antidepressants?? I think you need to get that ck'd out- you may need to get them changed.. I think you said you had one of those sun lamps - pull that out too.. Listen to Candice - If I came on here talking like you - what would you do... Yes you have it tougher than some of us - but we all have tough times - yes $$ does make life a little easier but it has it's problems too - it doesn't insulate you from having problems. You are not a loser and you have to quit comparing yourself to others and putting yourself worth on how you compare to them - you are a wonderful person - I haven't even met you yet - but I know you - you are a kind and loving woman. All the things Candice said. You are in a rough place - you need a plan - you have to get yourself out of this mounting debit - you need to get your prolasped looked at - we are talking about your health not buying a dress.. Ck out those debit counslers - you gotta find a way out of this - and if you need help from your kids take it. You need to ask for help we all do - I know how hard that is - I am the same way -but if I needed help - I would ask instead of drowning. Kari - Darling yes I know what you mean about expecting the weight to fall off - it doesn't - when we look back on our jounery it didn't fall off - Didn't wasn't that good calorie wise - mostly depending on how much you ate that and the micky d thingie - but way to go on the exercise. Phyl was the 3rd person - this was posted on the 50 thread - but you can be the 4th and I think we are off the cruise in July - too hot for our northern pple - looks like we are going to Washington (phyl's area) in july - Phyl how was your red hat lunch?? well my dinner's done it's 8 and I need to ck my other thread so tata til tomorrow hugs J

Who's the 3rd one :0) You can do this - we just got to get the sugar out of our systems... You had a tough go of it with Woody - Talking about Twig getting out - sound like my bear - the car trick worked the 1st time - but doesn't anymore - I just leave the front door open and he will run back in - He's not as bad as he use to be -but sometime - he still will make a dash for it - Angel on the other hand doesn't if we are outside she sticks with me...

I like the doc's credentials - I wonder what air is - you get to goal and we can go together - 115 to share a room :0)

Good Morning Gang Candice - I'm with you about the food addiction - I kept about 8 mini candy bars - and the ice cream bars I had gotten Joseph - well I ate the candy bars - ate one ice cream (threw the other one away) this morning pants fit but have more of a roll than I would like - the scales were ok on Thursday 143 - but I really want to get back 138. For me it's been a combination - eatting too much (I can eat 1.75 cup per meal) and choices. I am calling this morning for a fill - yes my choices this last week haven't been good but I can eat too much - I am happy with 1 cup of food and I need to go back there - I think I have been kidding myself that I am ok on my fill cuz I like to eat - I got the band for a purpose and that was to stop me from eating too much - I know it doesn't make my food choices and 98% of the time I do make good ones - so I think a tweek is in order - it's 8 here I am calling doc's office at 9.. Karla - Hugs - I was reading Oprah magazines yesterday - there was something in the self help section - if your main problem went away - what would be your next one - I think it was saying that the thing we focus on the most isn't what the real problem is - its an aviodance tatic. Email me your address and I will send it to you.. See I am a fixer - I want to fix your problems :0).. Phyl - Ok - I will be at your house on 11/13 about 10 a.m. Ok I started this at 7:40 - it's now 8:40 - I gotta get to work CBL Hugs

Good Morning Gang Quite weekend I see.. Karla - Hugs on your mood and situation - I hope you got some rest and are feeling better today.. As far as family goes and good memories - they all weren't good - when I was 5 I found my Mom on the kitchen floor with her wrist slit... She finally succeeded (suicide) when I was 15 - So darling my life hasn't been all bliss - I have been victim of domestic abuse and other stuff - both my bro's are dead and they are younger than me.. Life sucks big time at times - But you can't focus on the negative as there were good times/memories too - I choose to remember those - You can't dwell on the bad As to your $$ situation - I guess you need to sit down and figure out a plan - ck out suzie orberman (sp) - I know you love your house but if you can't afford it - then sell it - file bankrucpy. You can't continue your life being bogged down by all these $$$ problems.. How do you have 4 jobs - you teach - pay bills for pple (you do this from home right) and nursery in the summer (well that don't count in the winter - and you are looking for a winter (holiday) job now.. Phyl - What time is your exercise - I think if I picked you up at 10 a.m we would be early enough.. And I will just plan on spending the day with you and Earl - Get this I had a dream about you and LBT - I dreamed that You post "186" weight !!!! WTG on that walking - hell 186 will be here before you know it !! Even though I have been mia since friday - LBT is still in my mind :0) Candice - I love the brown castup !!! I have to ck the dates on mayo in my fridge cuz I rarely use it and it's usually expired by the next time I go to use it.. Well, had a wonderful time with Joseph and family - cried as usual when they left this morning around 9 - but they will be back for Turkey day.. Ate way too many sweets - Not so much the Tricker Treat candy but Melissa kept baking those pre sliced sugar cookies - my total down fall.. But did go to the gym yesterday a.m. and did 4 mile - popcorn at movies - then 3 mini candies - 2 slices of meat - cup of cauliflower - then the cookies 10 50 cent piece size.. Well back to normal now that everyone is gone.. I gave out candy last night - I love the little one they are so cute - there was one little girl that was a lady bug - she was darling - I gotta say they all were polite and said thank you.. Went and saw MJ movie yesterday - I loved it - it was great to see him in normal mode not performing for an audience. Well tried to pay bills this a.m. but stupid ck at bank didn't hook up my account to bill pay like I asked - I don't like the Indio bofa - I am the wrong nationallity.. I need to go to another branch.. Well just cking in - I gotta get moving - I know it's only 11:30 but it feels later - I love the fall back time change... Hugs - Janet

AWE LINDA !!!! Great to see you stop by... Chicago - Miracle mile !!! Shopping - you lucky girl you !!! I have never been - but gf who have said it was fun.. Ya let me know and I will take a day off

Good Morning Gang Karla - you must have Janet on the brain - when you responded to Candice post :0).. Yes I hate when I think it's the weekend and its not. I don't remember my mom playing dolls with me but I have very good memories about easter eggs - xmas cookies - I remember my Dad playing jacks with me. And once kids get to a certain age they don't want parents around (pre-teen) Since I had a boy we didn't play dolls - we played board games - cards - and I don't play marbles - I went to all his baseball games (heck would be the coach when he was in Tball and the real coach didn't show up) took him out of town on weekends to bmx bike races. I did alot of the right things with him and made mistakes too - but that's life... Only GOD is PERFECT... I think it's about your kids knowing that you love them unconditionally- that they know you are there for them and they feel safe - that's what it all boils down to.. It's not the quanity of time - it's the quality. Steph Glad to hear that you got alot out of therapy yesterday - thats really good - yes I agree combindation of raising and brain. You can look at me and my 2 bro's we were raised the exact same but we are completely diff. How old are Nick & Jami ??? I do eggs & xmas cookies w/kid and grandkids - I try and show them how to do it the "right" - but don't freak cuz they don't do it my way - how in the heck can a 5 yr old paint a cookie like a grownup who has been doing it for year - we just enjoy our time together.. Right now my house is a disaster area - but I don't care my family is here and it will all go back to normal once they go home - but I won't and don't let that interfer with our time together.. Last night took Brooke to Target to get coloring books for her and got her some clothes - enjoyed the time with just the 2 of us... Phyl - Yes I'm ready for Cabazon - you will have a better selection - heck the purse that got stolen $300 for $100 - I don't know what the px prices are but you get good deals at the outlet - you will see a lot of orenitals and others with like 5 purse.. Let's plan on 11/13 - you should be in wonderland by then and if we go early on a friday we shouldn't have the crowds - the wait in that store on the weekend can be over 1 hour.. oK i gotta get to work - cbl Hugs gang...

Good Morning Gang... Karla - I sorta sleep like that - I fall asleep then wake up an hr later - eat something (most of the time or drink juice) go right back to sleep again - and then wake up at least once more during the nite - For me to fall asleep and sleep right thru the nite is rare - I have some xanax and something else (doc just gave samples) I take them every now and then - Its funny I can be dead tired falling a sleep on the couch go to bed and toss and turn - I think the night I came home from TX I took the sleeping pill at 8:30 - and at 11 was still awake - I think I need something stronger - I might be small -but I think I have a strong restance to drugs :0) must go back to the day :0). The stupid smoke alarms batteries had to get changed last night they kept going off - I can't remember if it was last yr or the yr before that at midnite I was at Winco buying batteries as the stupid things kept going off - last night at 9 they started so Joseph went and got batteries and replace them I have 6 and it's a pain to replace the batteries - well at least its done for another yr. I get latte's at SB sometimes (when its cold) the whole froth thing is no biggie to me - I am a sweetnlow - sf creamer girl. I agree with you about the kid - hell I know we all think our kids are special - but I would never demand that the school make an exception for my kid - I guess I know that's not possible - Hell give him a c+ and leave it at that :0) Steph - Therapy is good - You just don't know how to turn off the serious button - Let us know how it goes. I'm interested in what they have to say - I don't know if I play with mine - I know I like to make things with them - like cookies at xmas - play in the pool - but don't remember like playing dolls with Kaitlin - but heck kids don't play with toys now a days they watch tv and video games.. Well I have DMV appointment this morning - have to replace license.. Tonite we are going out to dinner (outback steak house) - I got on the scale and was surprised this a.m. - right on tract but have been feeling really fat lately.. I gotta say I did sleep good last night - think I only got up once :0).. Well gotta leave in a few - will cbl Candice you must be doing alot of snuggling :0).... Phyl have fun at water arobics this a.m. we have a tad of a breeze this way but nothing bad..

Good Evening Ladies I am back from my new gym - it has better equipment - but I don't know if I am going to like it - I took some tylenol before I went - I have felt crappy all day long - Andrew has a cold - I hope I am not getting it - took my airborne this morning Joseph and family are here - Kaitlin is at gf house - Brooke is playing my wii resort - Joseph watching baseball - melissa reading a magizine (yes before me :0) and I am on the computer Steph - Ok things weren't perfect - like Karla said "I think Michael is playing you a bit. But he could well have attachment issues. Stop beating yourself up, you had to work to feed him, no one is perfect. Work on changing what you can, live with what you can't, and be wise enough to know the difference." and Jackie said Believe me there are lots of things I would like to change but can't. Only thing we can do is worry about the here and now. Hugs!! This is great advice - and truly from the little I read they gotta do a scan of the brain to see if it's true.. I was 16 when I had Joseph - hell we all did things that we think back on and shouldn't have. But I will tell you one thing I never felt that it was my fault for the choices he made - my boss asked once after he got busted for selling drugs (he was 16.5) did I think it was cuz I was a single parent - I said no - even kids from 2 parent families get in trouble.. We are here for you - We love you and will support you thru these times - that's what gf's do... Jackie - Thanks - I am a straight talking person - and what you guys are going thru right now - I have been there done it - benefit of age - looking back on your life and understanding the mistakes you have made... Karla - you can drink espersso and sleep tonite ?? I had a cup of coffee around 3 and I don't know if I will sleep well tonite - I am not tired at all right now.. Well, going to go visit with family - I will talk with you all tomorrow - Hugs & Love & Prayers for all my girls..

Steph I had to look up attachment disorder - and now that I have this usually applies to kids who didn't bond with parents - like the ones in ophranages - druggie parents etc.. Since this isn't the case with Michael - how can they say this.. If I remember right you were a young mom so I assume that you were home w/him for a good long while and they you didn't have him off with the babysitter 24/7 I assume you have gooled this - I saw on fb that you weren't finding alot of info in your liberary. Just cuz he sat there staring into the air - and not talking doesn't mean all that much - he's a teenager for gosh sakes - we all hate our parents and are total buttheads at 15 - I remember not coming home one nite - my Mom thought I was dead - my dad figured it was cuz of mom's drinking - it was really cuz I got in fight w/joseph's daddy and didn't want to go until we made up.. Anyway - I had to go to the police station - my mom was there - oh my baby baby - then we sat talking to some cop - who was telling me my bf was no go - I sat there filing my nails with that look on my face - I didn't give a crap what they said - I knew it all at 15.. I am sure glad they didn't have all those names for teenage disorders back in my day. Unless they do an mri/ct scan of his brain - they can't give you a definative answer as to that's what his issue are.. Physobabble - Just cuz they are dr's dont' think they are alwasy 100% right - they make errors too.. Dr Janet thinks he's just being a butthead teenager - he knows how to push your buttons. Ya he may have some issue as to how he was raised -but don't we all - I know you go issues with your mom - I had mine with mine - we all do - there is no such thing as a perfect parent - what pple have to do is to learn that they can't blame their whole lives on the past - pull up the boot straps and move forward.. Hugs - I know you keep blaming yourself - you did and are doing the best you can - look you at what you have done right now - you have him in a facality to help him.. Give yourself a break !!!! Hugs Hugs Hugs

Good Morning Girls... Depression - ya we all have been there - done that - it comes it goes - it comes back and sometime for no reasons and others it is caused by outside influcences - Kids - Parents - Stress of Day to Day life.. Hugs Steph - Hugs Karla - Hugs Kari !!!!!! Candice glad Peter will be home today - You have had a very tough week.. Phyl - Wtg on the pool this morning Well just a drive by post - I gotta get busy Hugs Janet

This is a drive by post - it's 8:18 and I need to eat PHLY WTG !!!! I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOUR - WITH ALL THIS EXERCISE YOU ARE GOING TO BE IN WONDERLAND IN THE NEXT WEEK OR SO.. KARLA - HUGS ON YOUR DAD !!! I will keep you and family in my prayers.... I will talk to you all in the morning..

Steph - Hugs on the no gf either - I know you really don't talk about any - I understand what you mean - we are all family here - but we are cyber family - who gets together a couple time a year with each other when we can - and maybe talk on the phone every now and then - We don't live near each other - we can't just drop by each others house or meet for lunch coffee - shopping etc. Here's an observation Steph - Karla - Karri - Linda - don't have close GF - not sure about Kari - I know Densie does and so does Candicw - Phyl well I think she does have outside freindship What's that all about... I don't care if you have dh's or not - a girl needs another girl to talk to - to hang with.. You girls w/o gf need to go make some... I know we don't like to be a burden on others - but you gotta have someone in your life to call on sometimes - Say I was sick - all I have to do is pick up the phone and have 5 pple I can think of off the top of my head who would come bring me something to eat - go to the store for me what ever - would I call them most likely not cuz I wouldn't want to put them out - but if I needed them I can call them. (Phyl you would be 6 if it happend when you were here) I am very blessed - I just realized that when typing the above well - didn't just realize it but I guess I take it for granted. I don't like to burden pple with my issues - but sometime you do need to reach out and touch someone - I gotta say just venting here is usually enough for me but like when my bro died - I appreciated my gf's comming to see me - they know me well enough not to smother me (that I can't stand) but they let me know they were there - and at that time I was also lucky to have Phyl & Earl too..

Good Morning... Karla - I hear you on calling in sick - I use to do it all the time - now I don't.. I forget what grade do you teach... Hell let them frigging cheat - I think it's a win - win sitiuation - they pass - you don't have parents calling you - and you don't have to police your class room... Ok before everyone yells at me - I am jking (not really) at this point I couldn't deal with it and you are there to teach if they don't want to learn that's their problem - I wouldn't waste my time - I would concentrate on the kids who do - Hell I really sound like a burned out teacher don't I - well I might not teach - but am burnt out - I am not about wasting time. Ok GF you gotta move.. I wish the encomny was better would tell you to move this way - but I don't know if we have any teaching jobs in our school district. I have my gf at work and personal and they intermingle - like Friday we are all going over another girls house for Octoberfest - just a slect few of us :0) - the in crowd :0) and then I have my gf debbie since I have known since hs and Ann since 8th grade and Candy for 30 yrs we are like sisters.. I guess that's the advantage of still living where I was born. I don't socialize a whole lot but do go out every couple of months - like this last weekend - I went shopping on my own - I do that alot - but again it goes to me being an introvert - I can be around pple for a while but then need my down time. A reverse TT is what Steph explained - Karri carried alot of her weight in the top of her tummy (under the boops) if you looked at her before pics she had 2 tummies - the top then and indention like if you have too tight pants on then the bottom - Well she had the bottom fixed July 08 now they are going to do the top - they will pull the skin up on the upper have and make it tight - like pulling up your spanks - and she is getting breast reduction at the same time... She was able to swing it as her doc gave her a payment plan for the TT that insurance didn't cover . Steph - I think it's good that they are moving Michael - you want him to show his true colors while he is there.. Hope your session goes well - and get some airborne - theraflue - tea - ck soup and take care on being sick.. Jackie hope you are feeling better this a.m. - I get you on the tattoo - for arm for the world to see - I sorta try to think ok ya I want another one (3 hearts inter-mingled to represent my 3 grandkids) put where to put it - and at 80 what's it going to look like.. Phyl - Glad you are back to your water arobics - I know how much you enjoy it - I have a gf (ann) who teaches it - I think I may heat the pool for brooke this week - Candice - How are you doing?? Hugs Denise - where are you girl - I see you on FB ;0) Kari - Have you totally just fallen of the freaking wagon??? Well it's 8 gotta get to work ;0) CBL :cursing:

Hugs Karla - Like I say - your job is for the birds imho - under paid - over worked - kids and parents.. My little Angel will do that every now and then - the other day bear marked the living room - I guess I wasn't paying enough attention to him.. You post at 4:30 a.m. cuz you love us and gotta say good morning to your peeps.. Do you have any gf where you live?? You never talk about going out with any gf on the weekends.. You need to get out and have some fun.. Phyl California Burn Units & Rehab Centers - Burn Survivor Resource Center - Burn Care here's a link to burn centers in California.. Ya the Kids will be here Wed when I get off work - leaving Sunday.. Well - It's 7:14 I need to cook - I haven't posted on my other thread - answered and email from lbt girl in Austrial - then my x-sil (brad's wife) called asking an insurance question Had a good work out legs I am going to be sore by Wed - Next Monday will be the 1st day at the new gym - they have moved out some of the equip and replaced with older equipment - I guess the gym in Palm Springs is getting our equipment Well CBL - dinner fish - veggie rice - boring I know but good..

Phyl IMHO leave him alone about the cigs - did he nag you about the weight - it's an addiction too - it doesn't sound like he's smokeing 3 packs a day - if it makes him happy a couple cigs a day - then hell let him enjoy.. Yes I have heard that - about the free plastic surgery if you donated the skin - There is a burn center in San Bernardino I think - I don't think it's a Shriners - Shriners in Los Angeles - Andrew went for his club foot - Can't say I am happy with them but - IMHO it is what it is and it's our cross to bare - sometimes shit happens.. well it's time to get off work - I have gym tonite - don't know how much longer will keep trainer - I saw a moving van at my gym yesterday when I was leaving target - we haven't even been told official that we are merging with the other gym - so I guess I will see whats up when I go to nite - there weren't any signs up on Saturday when I went cbl

I talked to Karri yesterday - she is teaching 4 diff sceince classes - plus labs and her school is open 6 days a week and she has to be available 24/7 (in her contract) This new school was suppose to be easier - but that was on paper - it's a lot harder - it's still new and she is teaching 4 diff science classes - she is streached right now - she is finding ways to have some down time - but work is taking up all her energy and then she still has to exercise and find time for DH.. So I don't think she will posting much here - she does post a little on FB - She goes in Dec for breast reduction and reverse tt..

Good Morning Gang Jackie - Karla has become the 1st poster of the day Monday thru Friday :0) - I normally post once I get to work - every now and then I may post from home early if I have gotten up early.. I am usually the Weekend early poster still.. But remember you are what 3 or 2 hrs ahead of me.. :wink2: - It's 7:44 here.. Phyl - Next weekend isn't good for me on COD the kids are here. Maybe the next one.. Ya the walk from the clubhouse /restaurant even to your RV is a good long walk for you.. Candice Hugs I know the heart ach you are feeling - and you aren't wasting time greving you need to and yes once Peter comes home you will start all over again - but then you will start the healing process too.. If pple don't have pets/babies - they just don't get it.. Karla - I wouldn't be a teacher if my life depended on it - too much work... Andrew got a tattoo on his neck - All Eyes On Me - something to do with tupac I guess- he was only 17 and I don't know who did it- I was pissed I didn't talk to him for a week - what else could I do the damage was done - are you going to tell my Dad - hell no you are.. All of us were pissed - not so much about the tattoo but where he go it - Hell I have a tattoo but it's on my ankle not my neck- Well anyway - his stepdad said when you want it off - I'll pay to have it taken off - they do a laser on it (burn it) I think they paid for 6 treatments and it's done once a month - he was sick and missed one - and on a couple of the treatments they didn't have the laser high enough so it didn't really burn - so they are suppose to be giving him and extra one for free - the one on Sat turned red - they shoot you up with novicane then laser it - I think 1 or 2 more treatments - I think the cost was $800 - Andrew is a teenager and very implusive - doesnt' always think things thru - I don't know I asked him what made him want to have it taken off - Oh I'm tired of it - I don't think so - I think he realized that it wasn't the place to put one.. Linda - HAPPY BIRTHDAY GF - HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT DAY Well yesterday - went and got nails done - then went to Ross's - Not your daughter jeans on sale for $39 (reg $98) got a pair and a top - then went to Marshalls and got a white velor jogging outfit $20 both pieces - then as I was leaving Karri called - sat in the car for and hour talking with her. She is overwhelmed with all the work she has - she's like teaching 4 classes w/labs (she's the only science teacher) I gotta say that it's not her ocd - but just too much work not enough hour and this whole new approach to schooling that her school is doing - again - I would never be a teacher... She is doing ok - she will make it thru - as you all know who are on FB she's getting breast reduction and reverse tt in Dec Ok a girl who use to work here - who's 48ish - had an anurisum (sp) thrus nite - doesn't look good - we just had a pray meeting in the lunch room... it's 8:42 and I gotta get my butt in gear.. Hugs & love to you all....

Ok confesstion time - I am terrible about changing my sheets !! I hate changing the bed - I love clean sheets - but have to make sure I shower and shave the legs before I get in love that feeling love my sheets "Beech" from bed bath & beyond - they are so soft - thin and soft - love them.. But am still terrible about washing and changing them - I can't tell you how long I have gone - would be embarssed to tell if I did know - but most likely a couple of months - But for you ocd girls I did wash them this morning ;0) Cleaned the kitchen - wiped down the cupboards cabenits (another thing I don't do often) and re-arranged my decorations in the kitchen - have the doors and windows open and angel is barking her damn head off.. Need to vaccum - and mop - Andrew normally does that stuff but he doesn't dust or look at the walls or base boards... He's my surface cleaner and I am the deep cleaner - I ususally do deep cleaning when on vacation or when the mood stricks (which isn't often) I don't do window either - I rinse the out side and every now and then when I am deep cleaning will wash the inside - when dusting blinds - another thing I hate to do.. I have never been ocd on a daily basis cleaning - but when I clean I clean.. When Joseph was a toddler I would give him sweet tarts to eat - cuz chocolate made him dirty ;0).. He drooled (still does in his sleep) he always had a wet chest - I would put a bib under his shirt I won't let you borrow a book before I read it - unless you beg and make you promise to give it back - Once I have read a book and given it to you - I don't want it back.. You can read my magazine before I do - cuz I get them in the mail and don't read them for months then get in a mood for quick reading - put them in date order and read them all at once - My dil melissa & gd kaitlin are always reading my magazine before I do.. No one opens my mail or qvc boxes (great part of being single - but even when I wasn't I don't remember Ralph ever opening my stuff) - I have open Andrew's mail and he has a shit fit - so I don't do it anymore.. I am glad I don't have daughters who want to wear my clothes or use my makeup.. I will loan you something for a special occaision . - Pple don't seem to borrow clothes like they use to - Well I am smaller than most of my friends - a couple might be smaller - but not many - I have let Debbie wear my tops.. But one time she wanted to borrow my white visor - I said no cuz I was wearing it the next day and didn't want it to get dirty - felt bad after I said it.. The only thing I will get pissed about is if you smoked my last cigarette - my gf candy use to do that. Phyl when did Earl start sneaking cigs again - I remember last time you were here (I think) I remember him saying he didn't any more and you agreed.. That was a long walk from Starbucks to wallmart.. Well I gotta get moving - this is why I don't get on the computer sometime - I don't get crap done - gotta put in another load and maybe shut the doors and windows a/c just kick on .. Need to get dressed go to target - won't be buying candy til next weekend - cuz if it was here I would eat it... The 1st yr of banding I didn't but hell the honeymoon is over ;0) And I gotta get nails done - may go back to doing them myself.. Ya Karla - hell it's fun to shop even when you don't buy alot or anything - it's moving/exercise - and it gets you out of the house - if I stay in the house and am not cleaning - just watching tv I am hungry and want to eat - so I go out just so I don't ... Jackie - I look at stuff - but always read the calories before I buy it - and 99% of the time if it makes it into the cart - by the time I get to the checkout - it goes out.. Ok gang I really gotta get moving... CBL oh beofre I goe - Phyl no the bosses have taken a pay cut too but the thing is that when we were making $$$ they took it (bought new cars - redid their houses etc) and didn't plan for a rainy day - they don't think things thru.. I know one of the bosses was quite upset about doing this - I did get a good raise when we bought ourselves back from HRH - and am glad they didn't actually cut our pay and keep us working 5 days a week - cuz to get that $$$ per hr back would be impossible - this way when things do pick back up - I am still make the same dollar amount per hour.. Let's plan something for the 1st of Nov weekend or even for my 1st furlough day 11/13 ;0)... Ok I am going now -----:thumbup:

Oh Karla forgot to tell you Jackie has OCD when it comes to cleaning - she deep cleans twice a day (JK) not that bad but the girl vacums every day- my house would drive her crazy.. Jackie - you know I am saying this with love :0)
