  1. Good Morning Peeps Got up at 6 which was really 5 but liked that the clock said 6 ;0) I know all head games.. Well got the rest of the house done - just waiting to go pick up Phyl & Candice... Candice said in phone call that she had to leave like 3:30 - she's going to have a long day - she doesn't get here till 3 p.m. our time.. Well I guess she's gaining 3 hrs ;0) Ok Phyl I understand - I think maybe Candice & I will sit at our own table since we aren't really apart of this group.. Sorta feel like intruders - what's is called - omg here goes the brain again - can't find the word - oh ya Party Crashers LOL.. Well dryer just went off - cbl
  2. Phyl - you have me confused - I thought Earl was going to the lunch on Monday - I thought it was friends of your celebrating something.. That's why I said would meet you there.. If you want we will pick you up on Monday.. It's up to Candice if she want's to make a pit stop at your place after the airport - She's leaving the house like 3 a.m. - don't know how tired she will be cuz by the time she lands in PS she will have been up 12 hrs traveling.. Just need head count for dinner really -- Hell Earl loves hanging out w/chicks ;0) Candice When are you going to NO - I am so jealous I have always wanted to go there - I would love to meet Denise - I think she's the coolest... Karla - Glad you didn't lift - Dinner sounds good - I'm hungry.. I haven't eaten today (we couple bite of prime rib) but no meal - I'm headed to the kitchen now...
  3. Good Morning Peeps... Karla you are up early on a Saturday - my dogs woke me up or I would still be asleep.. You ar getting your camera today right - you are going to become a phototoghaper like Phyl :0) Phyl Ya I guess living in the RV that long that close to Earl would be hard LOL - I don't know if I could do it no matter how much I loved someone - tha't too close quarter for me .... Ya over cooked fish isn't good - I have over cooked mine sometimes - I think it's why I like the catfish from Winco instead of Coscto - it's thick and 15 minute is just about the right time to bake it.. By the time I finished making beds - wiping down light switches etc I was hungry but in no mood to cook so my dinner consisted of popcorn & ice cream (sf) calorie wise I was ok for the day but nutritionally - omg terrible and I have leg workout this morning - going to have to make myself eat some kind of protein.. Well today gym - dogs - winco - costco - home to put all the food up ;0) Phyl I will pick you up tomorrow about 2 ok.. Is Earl going to come to the house for dinner tomorrow nite - have you figured out your schedule ;0).. Well gotta go look for some protein - I am going to need it for gym this morning
  4. Phyl - I was so pissed off at him - I told him so too - I told him he owed me an apoligy.. I told him I didn't complain when I had to move - I didn't complain when I got his account - I told them thank you about our health insurance - I haven't bitched an moaned to them about no 401k contributions - or the furloughs - I understand times are tough and cuts have to be made - If I had been a smart ass I could understand but I wasn't - it was a simple statement no malice indented.. He did apoligize in a way.. He's heard rumbling that a couple pple don't like the new health insurance.. I was and can be a smart ass to them sometime - but truly I haven't been in a long time - and it's not really being a smart ass but pointing out the obivious - just like I am here - I am not a sugar coater - it's just not me - It's hard for me to sugar coat things - a nail is a nail - so why am I going to call it a tack... Also he said that he was spending $80K to update the computers - well the way I heard it - we were getting them cuz we changed financed companies - See this is what I mean he acts like it's him doing it and it's really not - it's an incentive from a finance company (this is what I have been told anyway).. I totally agree about having the tools to be productive - I mean right now this new computer is so much faster - I'm not sitting there waiting for screens to move.. Once we get the 2nd monitor it's really going to speed things up. It's to their benefit to have up to date equipment so that we can do more work in less time - but they don't do the work we do - they don't have to get up go scan (which is taking forever now) then go back to you desk - back and forth back and forth - waste of time - but they are stuck in the past - if it was up to me we would be paperless - but they are too old school to move in that direction.. Yep I couldn't help the Sarah Palin comment LOL - Just thought of it - I bet she take credit for Marcy's school district LOL.. All that traveling - no time for surgery - you are ready to go home?? That's unusual - you normally hate leaving the Desert.. Well got Candices sheets wash (tide ultra sensative - double rinsed) and on the bed - Linda' sheets are in the dryer.. My sheets are done and on the bed - tomorrow shopping - I got $300 rebate from American Express I gotta go to Costco tomorrow to redeem it.. That's stupid I thought they would just send me a check.. Well didn't take anything out for dinner - getting hungry - don't know what I am going to eat - Lean cuisene ??? Karla - Think you need some sunshine or anti-depressants girl.... I have been taking my vitimans since the 1st of the yr regularly and I am feeling better - a little more energy.. cbl
  5. Good Evening Gang... Home from work - no work for a week !!!! Work wasnt bad - except I got pissed off at one of my bosses - i made a casual comment that if we had scanner at our desk - that we would be complete - he took it as i was being negative - nothing is never enough... I told him I appreciate the new computer - was just saying that after my 10th trip to the scanner that it would be nice and we would be completely up to date. He really pissed me off... I was negative - I made a simple statement that was it.. Phyl - I'll keep it (survivor) for you... How did the doctor go.. Candice are you packing :0) Karla - what are your plans this weekend Marcy - You live in Al - LOL Sarah Pailin can you see russia :0) LOL I couldn't help my self LOL
  6. Good Morning Peeps Karla we have 2 school district who are going to lay off more teachers -it's all over.. Glad you have senoirity... Me too - it's worth something.. Only watched the end of Idol - Andrew was here watching stupid Jersey Shores -so we were visiting - I have it dvr'd but saw who got kicked off but that was it - I will watch tonite - Karla this yr Survivor is good... Gotta see if Russell went home or not - I dvr'd it too Well need to get work early - my last day Prayer for the pple in Japan and for those who might be hit by tusnami (sp)
  7. No you didn't sound mad - You didn't miss much with the girls - Tia did good but none of the girls were outstanding.. Pia was good but I'm not a Celine fan - so didn't care for the song... I like Jacob too (the black guy) but he need to improve on his stage presents IMHO - you know I'm the simon cowell of lbt so will be on idol to LOL - I can't tell if someone is off key or out of tune unless it's real bad - like me singing LOL - I sound good in my head LOL but I am good about stage present and I do know when someone sounds good.. Asthon (diana ross jr) should have sung a song pple know - the blond Paul - he's just to werid - I like his voice but you can't understand his words ... Not sure who's going home tonite ??? I watch Housewives (beverly hills, OC, New York & miami well just started that one) so I watch mindless t.v. too :0) but not the bacholor LOL
  8. Good Evening Gang What a shock Marcy to hear from you... Sorry that you haven't been able to lose more weight - Yep IMHO it's more about our brains that our stomach - We gotta make the whole lifetime lifestyle change in our eating and exercise habits. 60 lbs is a large chunk of weight though - Good for you I forgot how tall are you for 180 to be your goal - I thought you had your TT like a year ago.. Wouldn't think you would need a whole body lift from 60 lbs weight lost - I can understand the apron part but not a whole body lift - Sounds Painful to me.. It's a good thing you got the $$$ to spend for those surgeries.. Glad you are feeling better physically - hope the mental part gets better once you get more sun.. Phyl - I can't believe you watch the Bachelor OMG but of course I will DVR it for you - You can watch it when I'm in the shower LOL I can't stand that show... Don't know why anyone is that desperate to get a husband and to embarrass themselves in front of the whole wide world - JMHO LOL Well not much to report Andrew came and cleaned today - he works tomorrow - did a so so job -but now give me more time to concentrate on the little things he never does - window sills etc ;0) CBL
  9. Good Morning Peeps... Oh I disagree Candice - I love Scotty and I am not a big Country fan - I like it - Hell I love Trace Atkins ;0) but not my fav genre - But I love Scotty - For me last night these were my Fav - Casey (hate his look but he's goo) James (again I am not a rocker chick but I think he's very good) Scotty they were my top 3 guys who I think really did a very good job - I also love Stefanio but didn't care for his song last night and Paul - I think he could go home IMHO Girls - Well none really stuck out to me - I love Pia - but don't like Celine - it was just alright.. Lauran Country girl did awful - I think TIA has a beautiful voice I think she will stay - Don't think Ashton (diana ross) did very well and I love her too - I really don't know who's going home tonite... Scales this a.m. 135.5 !!!! Candice I shrunk a long time ago - was 5'3.5 not about 5'2 - but I claim 5.3 LOL Karla - you may have a Halloween baby ;0) Phyl - LOL you and your parties - Earl know you don't like his smoking - so that's why he doesn't do it infront of you - as long as he's not saying he quit - I wouldn't sweat it.. Well I'm at work - gotta get to it ttyl
  10. Good Evening Gang.. Yep Karla you deserve down time with all that school work - How's your tummy?? Did you find out what date you are going to be a GM??? Candice - I know a full panel blood test is like $500 or more - just to test blood ?? I'm not a big go to the doc person - but do need a pap and blood test so will go when our new insurance kicks in.. Work was work - had yogurt for bf -lunch chicken soup - I took out pork chops but when I went to the store - tuna looked good - I think I will have tuna salad for dinner instead ;0) Oh ya Wed & Thurs are Idol night - so we will be watching that... Good thing I have dvr - cuz Thursday is Palm Springs Street Fair nite LOL - Oh ya for those who don't like Eggs - I didn't mention pt shakes - I have them too LOL
  11. Our bands are only tools - the real work is up to you - it's all about your diet and exercise - weight loss is no diff even with the band - it's all about calories in vs calories out.. If you need help come to the I'm here to help thread - we will be glad to give you some pointers...
  12. Good Morning Peeps Karla - it takes an act of congress to post picture here - you have you have a some kind of code - urrl code or something like that - I figure it out if you use like snapfish you have one - easier to post on fb or just email - don't know why they made it so hard.. Good Luck on camera... I didn't sleep that well last night - I can fall asleep on the couch but the minute I go to bed - i toss and turn - no 4:20 for me this morning.. I agree about the time change - we don't need it any more.. Yep 3 days to get my desk clean up - had meeting yesterday about our health insurance - we are lucky they still pay 100% of employee - changing to blue cross anthem - if I pay 24 out of my pocket my ded will be $500 vs $1500 and my max out of pocket would be $4000 instead of $5000 - the only thing is no brand names meds - but I don't take any anyway - so I think I am going for it - Great thing about Obama - now insurance companies have to pay 100% well ck's mamos paps colon flu shots etc - so that's all good it's no longer a part of your deductible - even blood test when given in conjunction w/a physical - a full blood test can be very expensive Ya the problem w/our pictures are our kids going to really care .... I think Kaitin will but that about it..
  13. Good Evening Gang... Had boot camp tonite - neither Diane (gf from work) or Linda my other gf went - it was me all by myself -Had a good workout... OMG Candice - Peter wanted to blame you for heater malfuctioning OMG.. At my old house I use bed hop when I couldn't sleep - I haven't ever done it here - I just woke up at 4:20 thinking it was closer to 5 but trying to go back to bed after getting up to take the dogs out - for 1/2 hr - not worth it.. Time Changes this Sat/Sunday - Spring forward... At least I will have a week to get use to it..
  14. Good Morning Gang... Up early 4:20 don't know why just woke up - have boot camp tonite - I am the only one who's going (2 gf of mine go too) one is sick the other is 62 and giving it up for a while - knee issues and it's just too much for her. Ok Phyl and I got our email issues fixed -TG. I have so many email addresses for our tech queen... Karla - Sorry that you won't be here - but how about we skype you :0) then you will feel like you are apart of it all.. WTG on your school work Not much to report - Watched OC Housewives - and went to bed - Well need to get in the shower - will ck in tonite
  15. Good Evening Gang... Phyl - I sent you another email just a few minutes ago.... So Don't delete it.. Ya I was thinking it's like your knee issue on of my bosses thinks I might have gotten a bite but I don't see any marks and it doesn't itch and I don't remember banging it - but it's red and swollen on the inside of my knuckle - who know's I'll give a while to go away LOL.. I live here so I don't think it's that interesting - I think Cabot lodge is closed - I think Candice would enjoy that - I can show them date trees LOL - but hanging out sounds good to me and going to Soma's and getting a couple bras - they are $50 but have been having coupon for $10 off... Oh just thought about going to the Historical musem here in Indio - I've never been.. I would love the home made meats !!! Food today - Yogurt/blackberries for bf - Lunch- Homemade Spicy Ck Soup - Dinner will be fish & broc... Had Idrise tonite - arms - good work out... That's about it - well gotta go feed the dogs - cbl
  16. Good Morning Gang All of us sudden yesterday afternoon my left pinky knuckle is swollen and I can barely move it without pain.. Does arthritis strike over night?? I didn't do anything to injury it .. I had pilos at gym - got nails done - target shopped and home - nothing - just all of a sudden it hits.. Phyl sounds like you do have a busy week that includes food That's always hard for me too - I do good as long as I'm in a controlled place like home -but when out and about not as easy.. Yep it's the email showing you what I have planned and asking if what you think and if you want to stay the week too - don't know why I didn't think of it from the start - Heck I will be picking you up most days anyway so that's not a biggie - for whatever we have planned- .. I don't think we will know the weather till closer to next week - It's windy here too. Karla - I hear you on not wanthing to get up - when the alarm went off I said WTH.. It's not time already - It's going to be a busy week for me trying to get my desk cleaned up..
  17. WE ARE KEEPING OLD THREAD - DON'T POST HERE - POST ON "I'M HERE TO HELP"
  18. Good Afternoon Gang (2:24 p.m Cali Time) Well I didn't buy anything !!! Except disk to make recovery disk for my new computer... Linda - I really really need to quit shopping you gotta see my closet - It's full and it's just me and I have stuff in the guess room closet too (winter/summer cuz we really have only 2 season here ;0) I am going to watch it for a while - I don't need anything - I shop to get out of the house ... I like the new thread - I don't care either - I ck'd it first... It loads faster - Well washing clothes - Making spicy chicken Soup for dinner and lunch the rest of the week ... I have my Lucky #7 girls coming next Sunday - so might not be on as much - but since I'm the early bird - I may have some free time in the morning to check in. The first few hundred pages of the old thread probly has more info - hell this thread has alread had tons of views :0) Well I'm going to go watch t.v. and relax a bit - I will cbl..
  19. My post is right above yours dear ;0) .... I think that we think tighter the better not true.. You are doing great - my scale and my doc scale are 6 lbs diff - I always go by mine -
  20. Good Morning Peeps Phyl Yep they fixed our Mentor thread - they deleted by accident trying to get rid of the spammer - I never saw the post... Yep I have sent you 3 emails... Yep the cost of gas for us here in the States is the highest it's ever been - I haven't been waiting till I'm empty to get gas - I put 11 gallons in the other day $44 - I have an 18 gallon tank that would be about $69 to fill up... On Temecula - what do you want to do go w/us or go to South Coast Plaza I hear that's a nice mall but expensive ;o) I have never been - Hugs on the knee - would you get it fixed down here - I was on my way home around 12:30 yesterday - Fred Waring was bumper to bumper heading west - I wondered what was going on besides the street fair it must have been your walk - it was on the news right now.. Well went to bed early - 9 p.m. - slept pretty good - woke up once - up at 5:45 a.m. - have gym nails Target - Only necessary shopping wash soap etc household stuff NO clothes or pajamas Dinner last nite was good calorie wise but not healthy - grits 140 cal per serving add 100 for the butter but I just wasn't hungry for meat and I hadn't taken anything out..
  21. Good Morning Gang... Wadda think should we keep this thread or go back to our original ;0) it's back - got deleted by accident - since I don't get notifications I didn't see the nasty email from whomever sent it.. Not much to report other than my Revelation of being a shopping addict... Ate dinner - it didn't include pt LOL - but was only 140 calories well add 100 for butter - grits !!! They were really good and I was full wasn't hungry for meat - didn't have any out anyway. Went to bed early 9 p.m. have gym nails this morning and Target but only items I need like veggies wash soap etc.. No Shopping for me ;0)
  22. Hell go in the the Girls Gone Wild Thread... They post stuff on there that I would only talk about in private not on the interent - I don't do chat room so never had the experience -but IMHO even if I was 20 I wouldn't be putting my business in the streets like that.. But to each their own...
  23. Charlene Your Bday is 3/8 so this was just an early celebration - Enjoy the cake - I did on my Bday for 2 days 2 pieces one day and 1 the next w/sf ice cream - then the cake when in the trash.. I use to do coupons - Ralph's & Von's would double them and you can save $$$ if they are things you buy - but for the most part I don't buy the kinds of food they have coupons on - They don't give them for fish, fresh veggies and fruit ;0).. And when I do clip them - I forget them at home LOL Nope Charlene not sick - just sick of typing some day LOL... Some days I have great stuff to say and then other days I'm sorta brain dead..
  24. Good Evening Gang It's freaking offical - I have transfer addiction - OMG my closet is a mess - I have way too many clothes !!! Got hair cut this morning went to the mall - tried on clothes - bought 1 dress - went to Marshalls got some candles .. The got home and went to hang up my dress and move some winter clothes out - omg - to over whelming - I have too many freaking clothes... I really gotta quit shopping - I am going to need a new hobby that gets me out of the house - I could go shopping but leave my $$$ at home ;0) Candice - Not stressing much LOL yet anyway ... Just trying to plan food and what we are going to do... Am waiting to hear back from Phyl - Tried taking a nap - didn't have much success - am sleepy but can't really fall asleep - well on the couch - should try the bed ;0)
  25. Well I think we got hacked per Phyl's email - I don't get notifications so I don't know what she's talking about - I posted last night around 8ish maybe later not sure.. I p.m. Alex this morning and have had emails from him and another adminstrator Ken S. - So maybe they will figure it out.. How stupid to hack into my mentor thread - Screw the hacker ... I have a theory as to what may have happened. The last notification I got was an extremely negative blast from someone I never heard of before saying Dr. Fielding was negligent, that 1/3 of all bands have to be removed, etc., etc. When I click on any of the links from several threads I get notifications for… the site that pulls up has the LBT header but says “an error has occurred” and you can’t go anywhere. So…. I think whoever posted that last post hacked in to the LBT site and “blew it up”!!
