Either electrical or something fell behind dryer not sure

I should clarify, I baked some pork chops with rice and cream of mushroom soup for dinner ... didn't pay attention to the time needed and when it wasn't ready when I thought it would be I ate a yeast roll to tide me over... then ate another one cuz i'm stupid... so my yummy pork chop (i don't eat the rice) is going to be saved for lunch tomorrow and I'm going to go to bed cuz i'm cold, cranky and beyond tired...

stressful night last night made for bad choices of food tonight... bread is not my friend and i feel like poop! my house smells like smoke, there is fire extinguisher spray all over my laundry room and a pile of my new clothes out in the snow that were on top of the dryer when the d@*^ thing caught fire on the plus side my 2 older boys saved the night by catching it early, being quick to get fire extinguishers, and getting us all out of the house. I'm blessed to still have a home and a family and the rest can be replaced. rant over... hope everyone else had a better day than me.

Kristi, What kind of shots? and what kind of dance moves does "a cute little barbie" groove to? where you twerking.....ha! glad to see your grabing life by the scruff of the neck and taking it for a ride... RJ RJ, we had something called Mu Creamy Vanilla Latte http://www.drinkmu.com/latte.htm delish! and then we had Chocolate Covered Pretzel shots... and there was NO twerking by this 45 year old body Has anyone hear o Pocket Protein? it's a new product out that has been advertised a LOT on the radio station I listen to in the morning. 2 oz and it comes in 20g (80 cals) or 15 g (60 cals) I'm going to buy some this weekend to see how it tastes and how my body reacts. You can find more info on this page. http://pocketprotein.com/ It has no carbs, no sugar, no fats, no gluten, no lactose or caffeine

So i went out with friends last night. Amazing time. I have had alcohol in the past wine makes me a little tipsy, beer just makes me full... Last night we had a cream type wine and some shots before we went to the bar. OMG I didn't know if I was going to be able to walk down the stairs to the car! I'm such a light weight now. It was a fun tipsy feeling and once I was at the bar I switched to water. Danced for 2 hours and had a blast! One of my friends said I looked like a cute little barbie doll last night. haha made my night!

Hey RJ I don't know if your ticker is up to date but your 179 lb weight loss is like losing one of me! That's my current weight!

I had a small bowl of Chili on this chilly night.

Yeah my Cowboys didn't let me down.... they sucked.... As usual.

Nooooo. This has not felt like a break for me b/c of MIL dying. She was mostly comatose from Christmas week and she passed yesterday. Funeral this week. I am looking forward to February break, to say the least. Sorry for your loss 39 days till our winter break, how about you?

I am so excited! I've had a good weight loss week. Not doing anything different, but every day I step on the scale it's gone down! woot! I figure I'm getting ready to hit a stall haha. Tomorrow is a back to school day. We got some really really COLD weather coming Tuesday... Maybe a snow day will come this week... haha....

I'm a teacher too and I couldn't have said it better myself! Lol Only positive about getting back is it being one step closer to spring break! We get winter break in February

I don't wanna go back to work Monday... lol Once I'm back in my classroom I'll be ok, but it's sooooo cooooold outside! I don't want to leave my blankie!

Well, my goal for this first holiday season has been to maintain my weight. as of this morning I am down 1 lb I'm pretty happy with that. I have eaten anything and everything I've wanted, learned that a few things no longer taste good and I don't feel deprived. I'm almost 90lbs down from last January and that makes me feel fantastic. I will be going to the doctor next week to see if i can get a referral to physical therapy though. I don't know if it's the weight loss or residual effects from back surgery 10 years ago. My back has been bothering me again (change in center of gravity?) and since I've become more active I've noticed that my left side (especially my leg) is noticeably weaker than my right. (this is the side that was most affected by my back before surgery) Anyone else experiencing anything similar?

I miss tamales! Moving to NY from South Texas that is a tradition I miss and other than ordering them on line I rarely get them now.

I have no intentions of leaving my house today. one of the perks of teaching!

Merry Christmas everyone! I've had a crazy week of shopping, wrapping, cleaning and soon to be cooking!. Dinner is at our house with the extended family. Turkey, ham, gravy, cornbread dressing, mashed potatoes, deviled eggs, green bean casserole, cream corn (with cream cheese), rolls and my brother in law is brining 2 of his homemade cheese cakes. I shouldn't have to cook again till Sunday? Then I should be tired of turkey again ….

I realized I was overweight this past week. What an accomplishment!

Looks delish!

I have only lost 75 since surgery... haha only and I'm pretty happy with that, I wouldn't worry too much I feel right on track

Kristi, Is this a new Profile Pic?. You look great !!! Happy Kringle. RJ RJ, yes it is, thanks! I had to take a pic so that I could show my mom the new sweater lol. But I think it turned out great Funny how I don't mind having my picture taken (as much)

RJ hope you are staying warm, the snow for the football games seems crazy! unfortunately I thinking it's heading north which means it may be coming to see me...

Haven't eaten well these last few days. Haven't been hungry so I know I'm missing my protein goal. I think I'm getting a cold. Tomorrow I will do better... is it to early for bed? Lol

oh and if i can lose 20lbs before January I'll be down 100 since I started my journey!

5 Things I'm thankful for: 1. Feeling good/healthy 2. Family/friends/ and the best online support group ever :wub: 3. Shopping is fun again! (victoria's secret yesterday!) 4. A job and co workers who are most awesome 5. technology

we've been quiet lately... or this isn't working again
