OMGoodness! Today I won't call the scale a liar! Down 69# and officially not pegging out the scale..I thought just being weighed on a regular scale would be awesome..and it was ...but now...now we get to back that scale weight at the bottom back one notch! I feel like I have been given an award and need to do an acceptance speech!!! Thank you to my doctor at Vanderbilt..thank you to the nurses, dietitian, psychologist, lab tech, receptionist, insurance specialist, & anybody else who I have encountered, laid hands on me, or simply encouraged me to continue forward. Thank you to my hubby and family without whose constant love and continuing support, I would not be here..and thank you to you all out in VST land....during my first infancy weeks after surgery..I found comfort, support, and peace knowing it gets better with time, learned wisdom from those who went before me, and accepted the baby steps I had to take....and with each baby step I took..I knew there was a hand to hold out there and eventually I could let go and walk on my own...knowing I can always grab a hand to help steady me if I need it! Life is getting better and I will continue on my journey with all my peeps in tow..walking now on my own every step of the way!

Well good Luck either way..my neighbors are from WV! Small world! My hubby and I are huge football fans but our school is in a world of dookie donk right now and rightfully so..penn state ..is where my hubby went to school..we used to fly up for games..and we are just disgusted..and sadden by it all..it will never, ever be the same there...August just won't be as exciting as years in the past!

Not UT alumni but got - in- with a young lady there in college that I had an opportunity to spend lots of times in the Foresic AC. Amazing experience.

We (Hubby, Hubby's family and me) have an organic, cruelty-free lamb and veggie farm in Jonesboro, TN (well, we are still a bit mean to the tomatoes)...

Pipula, so very happy for you!

I am mean to my tomatoes too..I rip them right off the vine when they turn red and eat them raw like a cannibal at that plant..lol

You are over at the other end of the state Pookie! I really, really wanted to go to college at ETSU but my mom and dad at the time asked that I stay close to home since they were paying for it..so such is life..I wouldn't have my beautiful hubby if I when there for sure..anyway..do you ship online or do you supply locally?

:) sooo happy for u.

Yummy! Do you do a CSA? I would be interested in purchasing lamb and veggies.

"tooterville" - lol, is where we all are once we start the protien shakes

I don't think we do a CSA, so far we have felt they are not any better for the consumer than what we already offer - and it puts you in no commitment, and (especially during events like the drought they are experiencing) no pressure to produce more than the land can spare.

We do sell at a local community harvest farmer's market. We also have eggs .

But our rates are good, quality awesome and Chris (Hubby's Mom)is respected and saught after in our community for advice, etc.

We do Border Collie rescue and rehabilitation, so if you ever need a gentle, smart, active companion that has not been treated so gently, let us know!

I can give you the number if you would like.
