Phyl, hope your DS is doing ok tonight. I'll keep him and you in my thoughts and prayers. LauraK

Janet, sorry about the sis issues. That sucks when they act like that. My Bro did the same thing when my dad died. Keep begging my mom to get things set up and in writing so we don't have to go thru that again. Now that there is steps involved it really needs to be done. Jessica, go to re-sale shops for your clothes right now. So much cheaper since you will be out of them soon also. Eva, we sound like twins. I have been doing lots of weeding and planting this weekend, I guess all week. I built a new bed today, all hostas. I was just about finished and it started to rain super hard. Oh well got my shower in for the day. lol Laura K

Janet, Nope no plans. Just getting things done around here. Not sure this date thing is going to work out. He says he wants to see me again & to make plans. I do and then he's too busy. Why don't they just say that to begin with? Hate games. Do you have any plans for the weekend? LauraK

Hi All, Volunteered this am, planting & mulching at the I-75 Rest Stop. Got some sun, a little burn but not bad. Weed whipped at home then set on deck and read the rest of the afternoon. Ahhh relaxed now. Everyone have a great weekend. LauraK

Cheri, very beautiful... you go girl LauraK

Jodi, way to go on losing those pounds. Have fun at FI. Jessica, cool tat idea Cheri, wonderful pic, love it. Joyce. you are so funny, love reading your posts. Laura, have a great weekend with your boys. LauraK

Jodi, Glad you had a good start to your weekend vacations. Too funny about the date. Maybe he was a late developer and is a hottie now. Have fun. Laura K

Ok Apples, no lavendar or butt bows. I was thinking tiger or leopard print for all you hotties. Janet, not sure of date but we have been emailing about it so it should be soon. Laura K

Jessica, Way to go on the 50 lbs gone forever. You are awesome.... Laura K

Jessica, No one said anything about what I ate. I told him befoe that I would probably not be hungry. Besides he didn't know that person before only the now. I also love reading your posts you are so uplifting. I am glad you are taking control now because it gets harder as the years go by. I know since my DD has been home I am not eating the right way. I've got to control it better. I find myself reaching for not good foods and it is my fault for buying them. It was a lot easier when it was just me eating meals. I'd say the thing that is saving me is the exercise I have been doing 5 days a week. Laura K

The lunch date went well. Just talked and had lunch. I ordered a shrimp salad & ate about 1/4 to 1/2 and brought the rest home. Was I supposed to do that on a date? lol I did not tell him about LB, I guess I wasn't ready to. I stated emailing with him about a month ago, this was the first meeting. I received an email from him already, he said he would like to go again. We will see how things go. I did have a good time, he's nice. We have the same birth date, how wierd is that. Laura K

Linda, the date is tomorrow (sat) we are meeting for lunch. This is all pretty scary for me, but I am trying it. This is what I was told buffet stands for... Big Ugly Fat Folks Eat There. I think of the statement everytime I've ever been at a buffet. Reminds me not to go there. Sorry if this offends anyone, not meant to. Had a great day working with the kids on beautification day. Worked a total of 10 hrs from start to finish. I got my exercise in that's for sure, raking, pulling weeds, shoveling, hauling. My butt muscles hurt!! Laura K

Hi Single mom, just jump right in to the "I'm here to help thread" Everyone is so good helping each other. Read the posts and ask away. We all love to have people join us. Janet started the thread and Apples is great but they all can help. Laurak

My worse trait I would say is impatience. I won't it done now...

Apples, the most beautiful rose though...lol

Janet, Thank you. I'm not sure sweet lady has ever been used with my name. lol I can't wait to meet all of you too. Julie, hope your test goes good today and you find some answers. Well we are in full swing for beautification day here in st charles. The whole High School is let out to plant, landscape & clean up. It's a great day with lots of hard work. Getting my exercise in that's for sure. Oh & Janet I have a kind of date on Sat. meeting for lunch then we will see. Scary after all this time. LauraK

Apples, way to go on getting those plants in the ground. Now tomorrow I expect the rest of them in, watered good & their pretty little faces looking up to the sun. lol Phyl, I agree you rock. Salute away at the idiots.... Jessica, to bad about your leg. You will make it, just a little speed bump, but watch out for Phyl. As to the question of the day, I'd say I'm a good listener and giver. Laura K

Lori, Happy Birthday. Hope you have a great time. Laura K

Hi Everyone, DD's party went great, fun was had by all. A good mix of family and friends. Of course I cooked way to much, have lots of leftovers took some to moms. Good thing though I don't have to cook this week. lol I did ok on the food ate a bit more than normal but made good choices, I did try small bites of cake. Julie, glad you a feeling a bit better. Jodi, I just love reading your posts. Fingers crossed for Dassi. Laura, glad your get away was good, looks like you had fun. Peaches, glad you are joining us. Janet, what concert did you go to? JB, way to go getting back on the band wagon. Joyce, I'm Laura Hensel Keeven on FB. Ok, I guess CRS is catching, don't mean to leave anyone out. Take Care Laura K

Jessica, what kind of birds were they? You family is beautiful, just like you. Janet, wonderful flowers. Party for DD is tomorrow so I about freaked I can't have naked flower pots. lol so off I went to the store and planted five of my pots. What kind of Master Gardener would have naked pots? Now I have to pray that it doesn't frost/freeze again. Phyl, way to go on the pt. You'll do great when you get that second knee done. Jodi, way to go on the new you. Must be that time, I had my hair colored and highlighted too. Great, glad you found your new house. Julie, if you are reading, you are in my thoughts and prayers. LauraK

Janet, I've been getting cramps in my right leg. It's in the lower calf and goes under my foot. It almost twists my foot sideways. Can't figure it, out I eat 1/2 a banana every day. Any of you medical people have any ideas for this? LauraK

Thank you so much I will let you know if it will work out to meet you in our travels. Not sure how far each day we will be traveling but I hope it works out to meet you. Laura K

Apples, Geez for once in my life I was trying to talk lady like........OK kick ASS. lol I put my money on you. I love to play cards, dice and we had a horse race game we used to bet on. Have a great time. Laura K

Jodi, way to go on those 7 lbs gone forever. Have fun on FI and take care of yourself. Apples, kick some butt in those cards. Eva, have a great trip. Laura K

Apples, good luck with your dental and fam issues. We are all behind you. Janet, just wanted to let you know you are missed, but not adding any pressure on you. Eva, yep big move is in June, we are looking on leaving Mich on June 21 driving in 3 or 4 days time, would love to meet anyone along the trail. She is finally geting some stuff accomplished. Mom needed to back off and let her fall or soar on her own. Looks like I can make my plans to fly back now. LauraK
