Good morning RR. Hope everyone has a good week. It's another vacation week for me.

Hi All,

We had a great time at the Wiggles yesterday! It was Peter's first concert. He was totally mesmerized! I wish I had a camera with me. We didn't bring it because I thought you couldn't. Turns out everyone had cameras, and I guess they were allowed, just now audio or video recordings. He didn't really dance around or anything, I think he was just totally mesmerized!

We had close seats, but we couldn't see the back of the stage, because we were too much on the side, KWIM? Robby had a great time also, but I think the concert itself was just a side show for him, he had more fun looking at everything, and standing on me!

Lisa, Hey, what's this with more vacation?! I'm jealous. Wait a minute...I'm on "vacation" also!

RR, Congrats on another loss!!

My mom is dying to see that movie!

Lauren, I am soo glad that your kids enjoyed the Wiggles. (Even though I still havent seen them) I'm glad you did too. My vacation is the last week before school starts. I had to work double the amount of time last week so I could really relax before the craziness sets in. Remember I am taking 5 classes this semester.

I dropped 3 lbs this week. I guess going to the gym really does work. (lol)

Hello to all.

Hello everyone!

We had a super great time at the Wiggles! We ended up with hot potato seats after all and Alex loved the coloring book and colors. I was so happy 'cause after last year I made sure we were there in plenty of time. He spent the whole time before the show coloring and making my friend draw trains in his book! AND, Murray said Hi to him, rubbed his shoulder and told him he was cute! He spent the whole rest of the show in a trance! He danced for a couple songs (more like jumped really) but spent the rest of the time standing or sitting in my friends lap, totally into the show! It was great. We had an awesome time.

RR: great on the loss!

Lisa: Yeah! Congrats on the loss!

Hello to everyone!

Karen, How did you end up with HP seats?! We were like 4 rows back from the HP seats, and the dad in front of us grabbed us a packet, along with some for his kids! We also got 3 bags of Motts goodies on the way out.

That's pretty much what Peter did, sat on DH's lap and stared! Lucky Alex w/Murray! We were on Anthony's side.

Lisa, Congrats on the loss!!

KK & Lauren, Thanks for the notice. I do have some encouraging words, for myself.

I was at the mall on Sat. and I spotted a boy (man really) that I went to High School with, he recognized me and asked for my phone number. He is so much cuter now, in HS he was such a dork! Man-o-man!!! Anyways, I was suprised because 1) we've been out of HS for almost 15 yrs., 2) I'd been out of the area almost 10 of those years, moving back less than two years ago, and 3) I have gaind alot of weight. My weight in high school is the weight that I am trying to get down to. Anyways it was nice to be noticed and have someone ask for my number.

Well now it is time for bed, I am falling asleep and making all types of mistakes that I have to go back and correct.

LBH · 08-22-2005, 07:41 AM

Lisa, that's awesome!! I always dreamed of that happening to me...except there weren't too many guys in my HS class that I would've been interested in.

KarenK · 08-22-2005, 07:51 AM

Good morning everyone,

we are getting ready to go to Sesame Place. I'm very tired this morning. Yawn. Ugh. Alex was up by 6 today. Which is OK since I didn't want to oversleep, but goodness.

Lauren: I just kept asking for the best tickets available online. Then I picked the ones that said premium. When I got my tickets they didn't say anything about being premium or hot potato seats. If you go again you need to be in rows 1-5 of the first off the floor section. I'm not sure about the floor seats. I wouldn't want to sit there anyhow. You'd have to stand and hold your kid the whole time.

Lisa: Cool story! How neat to meet an old school chum like that. I wouldn't know anyone from my HS class even if they came up and said Hi! It's been 20 years since I've seen them (22 actually! Ugh!).

Have a good day everyone!

LBH · 08-22-2005, 08:38 AM

Have fun at SP Karen! We want to go too! Geez, that's alot of driving for a couple days! Hey, what a plan, if I'm out of work for a couple weeks, I should tell DH to take a day off and go!

Mom_of_3_Monsters · 08-22-2005, 09:00 AM

Congrats RR and Lisa on your losses !!

LBH and Karen - Happy to hear that the Wiggles was a hit !!!

I had a busy week last week ... Kids started back to school, I now officially have a 3rd grader and a Kindergartener

Where did the time go

I have been spending some quality time with Jake (who will start K next fall) and while the bigger 2 are in school ... I took the opprunity to clean out their rooms !!

Hope y'all have a great week !! We have company coming into town this weekend so I will be busy doing that "company coming clean"

Hi all, well I'm down another 3 lbs. I was hoping to be in the 180's by sept. It looks like it might be a week or two into sept. before that happens. I have been in a size 18 for the past couple of months but it looks like I need to go into a 14 or 16. At my heaviest I was in a size 32.

My house is a huge huge mess so we are having a family meeting tonight about what my kids are going to do! Without dad being around anymore they think that they can live like pigs and not help me with anything. I'm still looking for a job but no luck yet. I have decided that if I have not found anything good by feb. I am going to move to San Antonio. My great aunt has a house there that no one is living in (she is in a nursing home now). I figure I will have better luck finding a job in a big city than in this little crappy town. OK thats enough from me have a great one all!

Hi All,

Tiff, Congrats on the loss!!

Hope something comes up soon. Are you near San Antonio now, or will it be a major move for you?

Norissa, Enjoy your time with Jake!

ItzTiffy · 08-22-2005, 01:03 PM

San Antonio is about a 3 1/2 hour drive from where I'm at now. When my husband and I seperated I moved back to my home town (about 2 months ago). There is nothing here, I have applied everywhere I can think of, I have no clue what to do next. My closest friend here is married now and runs around with her other married friends, I have only seen her once for about 5 min when I first got here. Thats only because I stopped by her shop to say hi, and let her know I was here. My mother is here, but I don't see her often (she is battling cancer and trying to get her life worked out). All my other friends are gone.

We saw the Wiggles last year in WA, Jeff ran right beside us and waved hi to my little Caeleigh, she was a little under 2 so she really didn't have an idea what was going on. I did like how they added a little adult humor for the parents to make it fun for us aswell.

RR congrats on the loss!!!!! Just look at a stick of butter and you will see that 1/2 lb is alot..
