I canNOT believe this... I had the most beautiful, touching, wonderful 1st post to this new thread and "POOF!" -- it's gone!

Maybe it's the cyber-world telling me it's time to get to bed... good night, my lovelies!!

Wow.. nice place ya got here, Michelle. Looks a lot like the old place, but just... well.... new!:grouphug::tt2:

Terry.. I'd like my hair that short, but not that severe. I'd like little wisps around the hairline. Mine is cut shorter than it was before, but still not short enough for me. She changed the color too and called it winter blonde. It's not blonde enough for me, so we'll be changing that again next time too!

Got all the presents wrapped and/ or bagged for the grandkids and kids to take back home with them on Friday. Just have the ones close by to finish up. I'll be done by Saturday. Can't BELIEVE it!!

Everyone have a good night and a wonderful Thanksgiving tomorrow!!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh. A nice comfy new thread. Thanks, Michelle.

Nighty Night all.

A new home. I love it. One more thing to be Thankful for.

Nothing much too add.......Terry baking in bunches is easier for me, than to dig all the needed things out more than one time!

Made some banana bread while everything was out, cuz I had bananas that were either getting tossed or baked!

Have the turkey ready to go. Rick injected the butter sauce into him!! We filled the cavity with onions, and celery and some fruit....I watched them do ig on the food Network, not to eat the things, but to keep everything moist. Thout WTH I was gonna try it!!! All my ingredients for the dressing and side dishes are ready to go....Onions and celery are chopped, so will be nothing but assembly work tomorrow! We are actually thinking of going to the early sale at KMart in the morning. They have some earbuds we would like for the Ipod. Koss buds for $10! We'll see.

OK--now I have posted so will get reminders, and can find my way "home"! Someone better send Pamela an email!!! Thanks for starting us up Michelle sorry you lost your post---that irritates the you know what outta me!!!

See ya later girls!

GOBBLE GOBBLE GOBBLE :grouphug:

HAVE A GREAT ONE VIOLETS

by the way, the 204.5 was just temporary. It was nice while it lasted. Back to 206.5 today.

I think I will ask santa to get me some new scales. Oh well, I will just enjoy my day today and jump back with the program tomorrow.

Good Morning and

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Have a great day, Hugs to you.

Good morning, Violets...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO EACH ONE OF YOU!!

TracyK.... step away from those scales!!!! You cannot weigh each day!! Your weight fluctuates every hour. Make it a habit to weigh only once or twice a week. Every day weigh-ins will drive you nuts!!

I'm up and ready to do some house cleaning before we leave for Kris's house. Going to be a fun, family day today!

Everyone enjoy YOUR day. Catch you tonight!!

Happy Thanksgiving all! May PB's not haunt any of us today :grouphug:

I watched Wall-E last night, kind of a sad movie! Watched it while cooking at my mom's. Pregnancy stupid brain hit me pretty bad, I burned both my squash casseroles, the oven beeped and I was distracted and forgot to take them out for 30 more minutes.. dang. Then the chess pie I make just for Russell, I don't know what happened.. mom said I must not have followed the recipe, but I swear I did. I ended up with enough for 2 pies, even though it's a 1 pie recipe.. then it never set :grouphug:

I used a new recipe, all I can think of was that it was a bad recipe I found.

Oh well.. finishing cleaning our house, his family is suppose to be coming in an hour or so, then we go to my granny's.

Of course the things I told Russ he needed to do last night.. vaccuum & take out trash.. NEVER HAPPENED!

TRACY K. YOU WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO WEIGH TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Judy, I will do your hair in Alabama short if you want me to!! I will bring my razor and everything!!! If you hate it, you will know not to do it again, and you can tell your person I just got carried away, or I was drunk, I didn't know what I was doing, or.......

Thanks Michelle, it is amazing how much faster this loads!!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Making the vegetable now, then to my cousins house, very bittersweet.

I am singin our song now:

I love my violets

oh yes I do

I love my violets

oh yes I do

I guess I need a refresher course!!

Have a good safe one!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!! I hope that none of gain an ounce eating all of our low fat foods on this beautiful day!!! :grouphug:

Gobble Gobble!!!!

happy Thanksgiving everyone

Judy size 10... you go girl... i'm still in my 16's :grouphug: but shooting to buy couple new pr, and going to get 14's

Tracyk- Judy is right.. step away from the scale! unless you are a wack-o like me, I have stepped away from the scale so I've realized i'm happy in a week that i'm not gaining anything back, when i was out of contro and on it every day i was doing much better

So Monday i'll be back on it every day making myself crazy but doing something about it

I am also going back to Water aerobics next week too, now that i'm on hold for te kitchen

I hope everyone enjoys today

I just want to thank you all for being such wonderful friends - i know i have been mia from time to time, but all in all, i would not have been able to even begin to survive without all of you, your support and love

I am so Thankful to have you all in my live

Yumm...the food was so good!

I had already told myself I was not gonna weigh again until next week anyway. No big deal. I have been bouncing around like a ping pong ball with the weight so I would much rather just call it 206 and weigh a week from now and see 206 then instead of a bunch of ups & downs between there...too much of a rollercoaster. When I lost weight before, I could weigh every day with no problem but NOW I can see I can't do that any more. Besides, I am starting to get on Judys nerves. lol

Hope everyone enjoyed their day. I did

Good evening, Violets..

We're back!! Had a great time, though a little stressful. The turkey was put in at 9:30 this morning so we could eat at 2:30. Well, it wasn't done and wasn't done and wasn't done. Found out the lid on the roaster was not on tight so the temperature wasn't getting up to where it needed to be. Sooooooooooo We rigged up a "redneck" roaster with a big ol' orange strap around the roaster and lid to keep it tight and that did the trick. We ate at 4:30 and I had been grazing on chips and pickled beets, pickles and M&M's all afternoon. When I sat down with my reasonably portioned meal, I took two bites and had to go to the bathroom to pb. Tried again with the same results, so I gave up. Had a little sliver of pecan pie, minus the crust and the pecans and a tiny sliver of butterscotch pie, minus the crust. So of course not much protein in, but lots of crap!!

I have the turkey carcass and will start cooking it tonight for soup. Plus I cut my finger on one of Kris's sharp, SHARP knives!! Wouldn't stop bleeding and hurt like heck, but it's better now.

I had a great time with granddaughter Amelia who will be 2 in a week. She is talking up a storm and just a little sweetheart. She looks so much like me when I was a baby, it's scary!! I sure missed Ethan today, but hope he will be over tomorrow.

I'm going to go start the soup and sit and relax for awhile in front of the tv. Everyone have a great evening. Don't even think about the scales until Monday when it's a new month!!
