Lilion... CONGRATULATIONS !!!!
Under 300 is Remarkable !!!
Gizmo/Vera ... good to see you back.
Where in Oklahoma were you ?? Decluttering is a BIG CHORE ... but it feels so good when you get it accomplished. Next time you're in Okla let me know.
Catherine... I too have to say ...you have some pretty awesome posts lately.
You are an inspiration to many !!!!
Julee ... my daughter went to a Passover celebration Saturday night and she really enjoyed herself. She said she learned lots of new stuff and new foods. / I agree ... you should always take some food that YOU can eat too. Actually people usually like having some healthy options.
Kymberly... WELCOME !!!! I don't think I have greeted you yet ??
I have been gone more than here lately. I too think Richard Simmons is weird in his own way... but I like him. / That is cool that you work in Labor and Delivery.
Esmaude/Karen... don't let that fellow of yours sabotage your weightloss efforts.
You sound very creative to remake your swimsuit. I wish I could help on that strap you are seeking... but I am no Martha Stewart.
BarbPA ... I am sooo sorry.
I sent you a couple of PMs.
We sure did miss you at the Fling. We had a
wonderful time... but it would have been even better if you were there too like last year.
Terri...
How appropriate that you had the BACK ROW SEAT on the plane too.
It kept snowing here all day after you left. It actually was beautiful. I feared driving home... but the roads weren't bad at all. My main problem was.... all the road signs were covered in snow
... so I did not know one highway exit from the next ... and there are a LOT of highways in Detroit.
Luckily I only had to follow my daughter so that did not end up being a problem.
Barbg ... I too took a nap when I got home Sunday afternoon.
I sure enjoyed all that laughing we all did.
It was fun teasing you about the snow
... but the REAL SNOW came after you left.
I woke up at 8:30 am Sunday and no snow was sticking to the roads... but by 11:30 ... the roads and ground and trees were ALL covered in a blanket of BEAUTIFUL snow. There were a good 5-6 inches on the ground by 2pm at my daughters house. I took some pictures .. I will see if my daughter can post them for me tonight.
Thinthinker... thank you for such a wonderful weekend. You were definitely "the hostess with the mostest". I really enjoyed myself. You were a saint waiting on us hand and foot.. and you were generous beyond belief. I hope you recover from it. LOL
Susie.. if you are reading ... thank you too. Between you and Thinthinker the tour of Detroit was totally entertaining. I loved how you were able to personalize it for us.
I willbe ... You asked about our trip...
IT WAS WONDERFUL !!!!!
Thinthinker was a wonderful hostess. She spoiled us totally !!!
Here is a small summary ... not enough room to write about all of it.
Friday afternoon we ate lunch and then Susie and I bought Mega Million dollar lottery tickets. .. but neither of us won.
Some lucky person won like $240 million dollars. Why oh why... couldn't it have been us. Grrr. LOL
Friday night we ate at a darling Italian place called Buca diBeppo .... MMmm good.
They serve family style so we each got to taste a little of a lot of different choices.
Then we went back to the hotel and chatted until the wee hours of the morning. .
Sat morning we headed out for the grand tour of Detroit.
Between Thin and Susie we saw so much and learned even more about Detroit.
I certainly had the wrong preconceived image of Detroit. It is a wonderful city !!!
We also went to Canada !!!!. To get there... you have to cross the Detroit River.... so we went both
under the river via a tunnel .. and over the river via a cool bridge.
After a day of site seeing we took a break and played a game at Thin's home before heading to a cool place called BD Mongolian Barbeque for dinner. The atmosphere there is awesome. New experience for us all.
We ended the evening playing Scattegories in the hotel and laughing our heads off.
Sunday morning we woke up and all started heading home.
I really enjoyed myself the entire weekend.
I know there will be a few pictures posted soon. I even agreed to be in one. LOL
Okay... I need to get. Just knew everyone wanted details... so... there are a few.
