Look at you Jenn-FANTASTIC!:thumbup:WAY TO GO! Judy-way to go on losing your cruise weight !! Well as I sit here I am still smoke free and plan to stay that way. Thanks for cheering me on! Macy is home. She was a very good girl at her mawmaw & pops house. It gave me time to go buy Easter Bunny stuff. OMG....so much candy:blink: Those little reeses eggs are calling me from the closet....I can hear them calling my name. I have gained a few pounds so I am really hoping it is water weight from TOM. I need to lose 6 pounds to get back down to the 173 I WAS down to. THAT SUCKS. YEP, you added correctly, I am at 179 but I should have known better than to get on the scales during TOM. :tt2: OK, I will quit complaining now. Have a great night everyone!

Good morning ladies! Terri-your dd dress sounds really pretty! Have fun with the shoe shoppng HAYDEE??? COME BACK!!!! Judy-how did Ethan sleep? I hope you all had a very peaceful night! Jane-we all have our bad days. Great thing is...today is a new day....forget yesterday and start over :wink: I am going to have to stop drinking coffee in the mornings I guess. I associate smoking with my coffee and right now I am having a hard time, but will keep on fighting off the demons. So, I need to change things around in my life until I find a new routine. I need to go and get some things done before macy comes home. I have grocery shopping to do as well. I will check back in later. Have a great day everyone!!

Pool Party at Suzies??? wooohooo, sounds like fun!! Thanks for all the positive feedback on the new non smoking me!! At about 3 PM I had the worst craving yet for one but I pushed the devil behind me and won that battle! Like Terri said, it is just a craving, not a command . Wise words. Now if I can just not replace the craving ith food I will be OK. THAT part is the battle!!! My mom & stepdad took Macy home with them and dh is at work:biggrin::thumbup:ALONE TIME! Judy-glad you had a good meeting today...I wish I could have been there. Laura-sounds like you may be as tired as I am. Poor thing! Terri-how did the dress shopping go with dd today? Pam-A new purse sounds nice. Great idea! I will have to wait until I find just the right one.....a dream purse:biggrin: Have a great evening violets!!

Well everyone, today is my quit day. I am a non-smoker as of today !:thumbup: (how is that for the power of positive thinking?!) My dh does not go to work until tonight and my mom & stepdad are coming over (as a surprise to macy) and we are going to the wildlife park & out to eat. Macy is gonna be so excited when she opens up the door and it is her mawmaw & pop! I have not been getting enough sleep. Between the chantix and macy coughing all night I feel like a zombie. At 11 PM she was coughing so hard she threw up. :blushing: I probably had a grand total of 5 hours sleep if I was lucky. She was up at 10:30, 3:00 and 5:00 and stayed up when she woke up at 5:scared2:. I am so ready for bed right now....and I have had 2 cups of coffee! Pam-So judging by who was nominated he is trying to backdoor Mattie and if he does not succeed he will get rid of Ryan? That is what I am thinking...unless there is someone other than Mattie he would backdoor?! Judy-how did things go at th dealership? It is fun to have a new ride...especially one that you do not have to turn into every gas station you come up onto! Jane & Jennifur-I see you...good morning! HAVE A GREAT DAY VIOLETS!!!!!!!

Pam-just sent you one back....- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Which 2? PM me so you won't ruin it for Jane. I do not wanna know who actually won it, but who are the 2 it was down to? PS, I was disgusted that James came back. I wanted it t be Alex. Oh well, it will be interesting for sure! Good morning violets. It is still March, right? Just checking. I have reread some of my recent posts and I am putting wrong words in the sentences and I am like, wtf?! I really am losing it! It is all good though. I have decided (so far) that my quit smoking day is Saturday. Keep your fingers crossed for me! I need to get up and get moving. Have a great day everyone!! Have the flying monkies been sent out to find Haydee yet?- Gruene Violets

LOL.....thanks Judy and Terri-I needed that!!:party: Jenn-I agree with Pamela and Laura :cool2:- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENNIFUR!!!!!!! Good morning violets. Terri-stupid is definitely a side effect. My sister and my friend were both eaten up with it and now I am too.:wink: It is horrible. Like absentmindedness and I cannot stand it!! Beofre my sister found out what was causing hers, she was making an appt w/ a neuroligist cause she just knew she had some kind of brain issue...seriously. Then she found out that it was a side effect from Chantix. She stopped taking them and now she is back to her strait thinking self again. I just need to make sure I am surrounded by angels while I am taking these pills cause there is no telling what will become of me!! Pam-call me anytime, seriously. That BB video was a hoot. He is definitely losing it. Maybe he is on chantix too! :smile: Have a great day everyone!!!!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
GOOD LORD!!!!!!!! These Chantix pills are making me lose my mind for REAL. I have been so scatter brained. Putting clothes in the washing machine, pouring the soap in and not hitting the start button for example. I don't know how much more of it I can take. I am messing things up at work too. Things I could normally do in my sleep are a chore now. My mom called me the other day and jokingly says, hey this is your momma, do you remember me? LOL it is BAD!! Tracy that is my fav pic of ALL!!!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Tracy-Love the pics!! You look so happy :thumbup: Terri-I am still struggling about calling for a fill. I PB'd this morning so I am kind of freaking out at the thought of being tighter. Thanks for the tip about asking for an appt on Thursday. I will make sure I do that. We need to have a GOMAD (get off my as* day). THAT is my problem!! LOL I went for my follow up about the boil thing today. The antibiotics are doing really well and the dr said that it looks alot better but if it comes back again he will send me to the hospital so he can "chop it out".:thumbup: I just love my dr. he uses such great terminolagy (sp?). So heres hoping it goes away and stays away otherwise I am hospital bound! I gotta go get dd. I will be back later... By the way, i just realized today is my one year Bandiversary!!! GO ME!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
Denise-HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Terri-I have seriously been thinking about another fill. It really hurt last time though. I am just SO scared of being too tight. Been there done that. The last time I had a fill was Jan 9th. I think I am at 2.2 I remember that she put alot in there (like 1.2) and I still did not think it was enough but we both thought that if it wasn't I could go back and get more. I wish I could go when the actual dr was there. The last thing I want to do is get filled to much then my year be up and have to PAY for an unfill :blushing: But, I will probably call today and make an appt. I have to do something. I can eat too much! Have a great day everyone!!- Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here
