Shrinkin' Violets Part 3 Read HERE!
:confused: I have been up since about 3AM...I am getting tired even with 3 cups of coffee in my body. I think the cramping and tiredness is wearing me down so I am gonna go curl up in the fetal position and try to go to sleep. DH is @ work and dd is @ school. I have quiet time, I may as well take advantage of it. Maybe I will pop a muscle relaxer & crash...

:confused: Terry-Here I am. I am always here. I just do not have anything productive or exciting to say. My sister has been here the past 4 days. Her life is in turmoil and she came here to regroup...heal mentally, get her appetite back. I can get even the skinniest person alive to gain weight....she came to the right place! lol Maybe I can run a program for anorexics & bulemics and help them gain weight AND get paid for it. A win win situation! Have a great night everyone! (((hugs)))

Good morning everyone- Judy-I feel bad that Kris had to have a c-section. Pretty soon the disappointment will fade, but you know that. Grady is so cute! Big baby boy! Reminds me so much of when I had Macy :thumbup: I wish I could do it gain *sigh* Did you stick with the pouch test? Laura-ah yes, the pregnancy waddle. You know those benches inside grocery stores & dept stores? That was my hang out while dh did the shopping. I could not make it through a whole shopping trip....forget it! My back & especially my HIP could not take it. I feel your pain sister. This will be a just a memory soon. It is so worth it! I am gonna scan some of my preggo pics and post them. Hang in there little mama! Kat-Macy is hanging in there. She is struggling since she was behind her class AND a young 5 year old to boot. I may have to hold her back....we'll see. I would rather hold her back ASAP, ya know? Pamela-tell Susanne happy b-day for me too (better late than never). Do any of you watch the Bachelor? Ugh, I was so disgusted what Jason did to Melissa I could throw up....anyway TracyinKS-I hope you had a fantastic trip. I have let my weight crawl up some but not all the way back up to 223....it was 221 this morning but that is WITH some water retention. I always screw it up. I have some kind of mental problem I guess....well I KNOW I have issues. I heard (read) the donut conversation the other day. There is NO way I can eat a donut and believe me it isn't for a lack of trying, that is for sure! I SUCK. My sister is probably going home today. I feel bad for her. Just when I think I have problems, all I have to do is think about her and it lines me out! Hi all my violet sistas! Have a great day ladies Respect the pouch!

Good morning ladies! Congrats Judy....he is beautiful!! Have a great day everyone. Oh btw...they could not find anything wrong with the van. It didn't make the noise while it was there....go figure. Oh well, at least I know somethings up and I can prepare ahead of time for it! Respect the pouch!

Laura-I 2nd what Judy said about not passing up the epidural! The dr didn't get me in the right spot the first time and about 3 hours later (luckily it wasn't too late) the nurse was like "ummm, I don't think your epidural is working". I guess the moans & groans gave it away. The dr had to come back & do it over again...whew.. what a difference!

Oh Judy I wish I were there with ya'll!! How EXCITING! Jennifer-hope everything goes well with your company. Maybe you could ask your bss to send you in a recommendation? That would be HUGE, right? Let us know what happens! Kat-I had read somewhere about the crank shaft making noise like that while idling?....that just *sounds* expensive! OK, when we bring it in somewhere we will ask them about the heat shield first. I will let you know what it ends up being. Laura-CUTE pics. The cake looks SO tasty! Is there anything that you really need that you didn't get? My mind is scrambled .... I need .... heck, I don't even know what I need Love ya'll....have a great day. Respect the pouch!

By mad I mean PUT OUT, frustrated, burden anyone if any extra costs would be placed on others heads! I would not want that to happen.

Good morning ladies... It has been 2 full days since a PB so that is great news. I think I will do another day (maybe 2) of liquids & mushies just to be on the safe side. DH is off work until Friday so I am REALLY gonna have to watch what I eat. Kinda hard to do when we are used to eating what we want....old habits are hard to break. Have a great Monday everyone & remember to respect the pouch....RESPECT IT!

Jenn-you sore today?- Shrinkin' Violets Part 3 Read HERE!
Good morning ladies~ Judy you made me chuckle when you said "tomorrow would be a good day for a baby to be born". LOL You know darn good and well you wanna meet him/her NOW. I love it! Girls I am SO worried. My van is making some expensive sounding noises. Went went to run some errands yesterday and the noises started. Sounds like something is about to fall out from underneath. Oh well....if it konks out it will just have to sit in the driveway until we can afford to get it fixed. There would be days that dd and I would have to get up @ 4 AM to bring dh to work, but we will do what we have to do. I sure do not miss having any credit cards but right now one would come in handy. I dunno, I am putting the cart before the horse...maybe it is fine. I just don't wanna get stranded somewhere but I also do not see the point of bringing it somewhere to find out what is wrong and then saying 'nope, we can't fix it right now' either. What o do, what to do. My luck.... I have WAY to much crap on my mind. On the bright side, I did not PB all day yesterday so I am going to baby the band again today and see if I can make it all better :wink: Have a good day violets!

Good morning girlies....So glad to be able to post this morning. Michelle-what a nice lady you are. How sweet of the son to call. Made it worth it, huh?! Judy-can't wait to hear about the baby being born! Terry-I almost spewed coffee yesterday when I read where you said chocolate is a gift from heaven I agree wholeheartidly. Laura-I hope you have a fantastic shower!! The great thing is...you will STIL need things when we get there, so I will weed out all the nonsense and get something then! Like, nerve pills, aspirin, tequila...the list goes on & on. lol Jennifer-sorry you didn't get to sleep in. I hate wasted trips anywhere! So you see the trainer today, right? Pamela-what is on your social calender today? R&R? Kat-have you & rick gotten to see your new grandbaby lately? :tongue2: Hi everyone else! Have a great weekend!!! :thumbup: - Shrinkin' Violets Part 3 Read HERE!
