  1. Bravo Beanie, good job
  2. I was gonna say duck tape
  3. That sucks Carrie. I'm sure in time and with additional weight loss the bp will come down. I never had high bp until now Just watch your salt intake and see what happens at your next visit. Good luck !!!
  4. Sad thing is... I can relate to these ROFLMFAO.... especially #3 snort~ 20 Ways For Women To Tell That They've Had A Little Much To Drink 1. I have absolutely no idea where my purse is. 2. I believe that dancing with my arms overhead and wiggling my butt while yelling "WOO-HOO!" is truly the sexiest dance move around. 3. I've suddenly decided I want to kick someone's ass and honestly believe I could do it too. 4. In my last trip to pee, I realize I now look more like a homeless hooker than the goddess I was just four hours ago. 5. I drop my 3:00 a.m. bean burrito on the floor (which I'm eating even though I'm not the least bit hungry), pick it up and carry on eating it. 6. I start crying and telling everyone I see that I love them sooooo much. 7. I get extremely excited and jump up and down every time a new song plays because "Oh my God! I love this song!" 8. I've found a deeper/spiritual side to the geek sitting next to me. 9. The man I'm flirting with used to be my 5th grade teacher. 10. The urge to take off articles of clothing, stand on a table and sing or dance becomes strangely overwhelming. 11. My eyes just don't seem to want to stay open on their own so I keep them half closed and think it looks exotically sexy. 12. I've suddenly taken up smoking and become really good at it. 13. I yell at the bartender, who (I think) cheated me by giving me just lemonade, but that's just because I can no longer taste the gin. 14. I think I'm in bed, but my pillow feels strangely like the kitchen floor. 15. I start every conversation with a booming, "DON'T take this the WRONG WAY but..." 16. I fail to notice that the toilet lid's up, and I don't even care! 17. My hugs begin to resemble wrestling take-down moves. 18. I'm tired so I just sit on the floor (wherever I happen to be standing) and take a quick nap. 19. I begin leaving the buttons open on my button fly pants to cut down on the time I'm in the bathroom away from my drink. 20. I take my shoes off because I believe it's their fault that I'm having problems walking straight.
  5. Ditto's...try a sports bra. Can you wear a loose shirt over top of another?
  6. Productive burp... its when you chunk, toss your cookies. From what I've read here, you DON'T want to have one.

Don't forget to put the hole in the back for the tea light LOLOL !!! Beanie, you have ADHD? Well howdeee sistah !! My job was supposed to be NOT be stressful but so far in the 7 years I've been here I can't think of a day where this is true. I have work OVERLOAD and people still continue to dump sheeeat on me. The only thing that keeps me here is the friends I've met, the pay is eh okay and the benefits are pretty good. Okay rant over LOLOL Whats shakin with you all this weekend?

    I'm sorry ladies. I have been so busy at work, imagine work coming before one of my favorite websites....sheeesh I love walking into a candle store, the smell is just so relaxing. I have one of those little tea light pot thingys where you put a hunk of wax on the top and the tea light under it melts it. The house smells wonderful !!! I have gingerbread, bananna nut bread, vanilla, orange chocolate and a few other sents. The ceramic pot thingy cost about $5.00 and the wax is $1.00 each. It lasts a very long time too b/c each time you shut the tea light off the wax on top gets hard again. I'll try to find a picture. Trish... HOME DEPOT ...... oh girl, that place drives me insane, I just can't stand it LOLOL I bet you just go there to look at the men...uh huh.

    Happy Thursday Evening Beanie, I'm keeping my eyes crossed for you with the job and the band !! WHOOHOO can't wait for you to post that you got both. Did you enjoy your pizza party the other day? Trish what are you studying for? Ceramics is fun, my aunt used to own her own ceramic teaching business. I never went b/c I was to young at the time but my Mom did. Nothing exciting happening here, work is a bore, chore and a royal pain in my ass!! Over worked and underpaid...aint it the truth. Who said carrot cake? ohh sorry, I"m hearing things LOL!!! Well you all have a good evening and I'll plop by tomorrow. HUGS

Ira NOT HUNGRY !!! thats wonderful, gosh your gonna be at goal b/4 I even get started... Nice Job !! Well nothing exciting happening here, SOSDD. TTYL
  22. YEAH DeLarla you go !!! I am the queen of excuses when it comes to exercise, so why not start a "movement" thread. I mean anything has to be better than just sitting, I don't care if its mowing your yard, doing dishes, etc. I know for me, the more I "do" the more I will want to "do" Just don't ask me to stand in front of the TV and bounce around with some skinny chick who has a body you can bounce a quarter off of I love walking, I love playing volley ball, swimming, but bring me to a gym you'll see just how fast this fatty can run (away from it that is). We can do this !!!!! Today's verb.... My attentions are to get on the dreadmill when I get home tonight NEXT?
  23. CORRINE !!! YOU ROCK !!!! Thats fantastic, you really are an inspiration. Whooohoooo. I was a slug yesterday I admit it. I will get on the dreadmill tonight, even if it kills me grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr !
