Ann sounds like your party was a hit. Men in grass skirts never fail to bring the house down. The Hospital where I used to work there was always a comedy competion every year between the men and the women who worked there. That first year I went to the big end of year bash even the Hospital administater was in coconuts and a grass skirt. As for your yoyo diet. I can tell you that even when you've been at it as long as I have you are never right at goal all the time. I think the trick is to stay with in a couple of pounds. Never let it get out of hand like say 10 pounds. Life happens around us ( that is a good thing )and as long as we stay focused on keeping our weight in line we do good. We still need to enjoy this life and like it or not every thing we do almost always involves food. So all we can do is keep on keeping on. Even though sometimes I'm over my goal by 3 to 5(vacation) pounds . I still consider that maintaining . Because of the fluids we carry in our body it's not uncommon to weigh heavy at different times a day. And as long as we know we are trying to do the right things then we are doing great. We are all successful . We all do some things right all the time . We have to focus also on how our clothes fit. Are we happy with the way they look? The way they feel? Am i being realistic? One thing to remember is : Sometimes the scale is not our friend. At those times it's good to remember that just because the numbers on the scale aren' what we want to see we are still staying focused, we are still drinking water, we are still doing our exercise. We are still awear of what we are eating. We still feel good about what we are doing. And we won't quit just because the numbers on the scale don't say what we want. I often say that I wish I had a magic wand and then when a member reaches goal that I gould tap her on the head with it and pronunce her at goal forever. But alas there is no such thing. Can You guess this what am going to talking about at my meetings this week? [b]Lily{/b] I hope this didn't depress you . Sorrry

Ann: Your Party sounds like it was so much fun! Does sound like it was alot of work tho. But well worth it!

Slavika: Its funny cuz when I was in Hawaii I was speaking it pretty good after 2 weeks. Now its forgotten again. ALAS.... Just shows I need to go back!

Karen: Absolutely not, it did not depress me. Its very sound advise and the way I look at it. Life does go on and none of us are perfect. I plan to always stay with in 5 pounds of my goal weight. I know if I dont it will get out of hand and I dont want that to happen. But I am also realistic that there will be times when I do go way over points. But the important thing is to get back in control immmediately. Losing weight is easy. Keeping it off will be the struggle.
Wish I could go to your meeting. Sounds like it will be a good one!

Have a great day all!

Should you weigh at home and find your self over the 2 pound mark. Just grin:) pay the weekly fee and the next weigh in you'll be free again. Don't skip going to meetings just because you are over :nono:Besides your at home scale doesn't always tell the truth either.:?:

Karen.... that was such good advice, it was like being at a good WW meeting. :) I am printing it out, because when my scale goes up a bit I get spooked. :eek: I get on my scale, once every morning, and sometimes when the number goes up ~ for no reason ~ I get to wondering what is going on :?:
Ann.. The party sure sounded like a lot of fun.. :cool: Would have loved to see it.
Slavika.. Just you and me tomorrow kiddo. Save me a seat... :^: .. I might get there a bit later. There used to be 3 Canadians on the board... I wonder what has happened to Donna? I miss her, she has such an adventerous spirit. If you are reading the board from time to time Donna, come back. :)

I will be back later to see who turns up... :wave:

Boy-oh-boy------miss a couple of days here and it is hard to catch up.

First things first.

LILY :):)***:):)***:):) you have earned it. I am sure that you will get to your personal goal by the time you finish maintenance. You won't have trouble staying there. Back in the days when I was at goal and stayed there my warning sign was 3#. If the scale showed 3# over goal I just went back OP and normally lost it in just a few days. I did weigh daily though so it couldn't sneak up on me.

Ann glad your luau was a success. You certainly worked hard on it. Will you invite us to the next one? Remember that quilt I started a couple of months ago? It is stamped cross-stitch ballerina kittens. I thought it would take me about 6 weeks to do the embroidery. Wrong! I think it will be closer to 6 months. It is taking much longer than I anticipated. It will be cute though.

I have gone crazy on new clothes. Foley's has had some good sales and I have bought virtually a new summer wardrobe. All my summer things are too big and what would fit is pretty worn. So I bought a bunch of new clothes---all on sale of course. Now I have to get down to 145 to wear them. That is what I told myself. I have to get to that weight to earn my new clothes. I deliberately bought them all too small so that I can't cheat. It is hard to go in the closet every day and see all those pretty things that are too tight. I couldn't see buying a new wardrobe that would be too big next year. Now the trick is to get into them.

I miss our old friends---Silvergal, Josie, Donna, gAnne. Where are you?

Hi Everybody
DH and I went to our grandson's game tonight. It was actually his first game after having only one practice. Oh Brother is that ever boring, (not of course when he was up to bat). The kid's, when they get up to bat, (no three strikes and you 're out) even if they have 10 strikes, that's ok. The kids that play base and in the field play catch with "their own glove", sit down on the grass, walk over and talk to other players, look around...almost everything you could possibly do on a baseball diamond, other then playing baseball. When a kid would finally hit the ball everybody would cheer. It really was funny...they are all so new at this. :angel:
Ann from your remark about your DH I am guessing he was in the navy. I think you mentioned you are in a "senior's park" (or did I make that up). Are there a lot of people with military backgrounds in your park? You guys sure know how to have fun. :)
Lily ALAS, you are not getting away using that poor excuse to go to Hawaii...and don't go telling these nice gals some story about being fluent in Hawaiian after a two week holiday, and then forgetting it. LOL LOL :D
Karen you sound like a really special WW Leader and your groups are lucky to have you.
Trudy :eek: if my scales are any indication I will likely be UP 3 lbs tomorrow, but Karen is of course right, time to get my butt back to WW. I'll see you tomorrow at WW and later for tea time. :love:
Geri that was a really good idea buying the clothes a little bit too small. That's a really good incentive. :)
Good night all. :yawn:

G'day all,

Lily Well done making goal, that is a fantastic achievement, you must be thrilled.
Also I do hope you will one day come and visit Australia, I would love to show you some of the sights in Adelaide South Australia.
Our plan is also to visit the US, Canada and Alaska.

At the moment I am in the library as I have traded my little laptop for a 'new' DEL laptop. I am waiting for the company to transfer all my files, it should be ready tomorrow.
I am really pleased, it will be a lot better than the laptop I had, a lot more memory etc. I have the program Dreamweaver but it was too big to put on my old laptop, be good to be able to load it on my new one and have a play around with that. DH keeps on tellling me I should do a webpage but I don't really know what i would put on it, I feel it is a little pretentious.
If you have any ideas let me know.
I did a web page some time ago for a sporting club dh was/is involved with and I did enjoy doing that.
I better fly, I have access for 20 mins., I have no idea how much time I have left.
Speak to you all soon.
Cheers
Maria

I still have about 10 minutes up my sleeve and wanted to say that I really appreciated Karen 's post.
You made such a lot of sense never to allow yourself to get 10 lb over goal.
I am still struggling, tomorrow is my 32 nd wedding anniversary and dh says we just have to go out to dinner. I love going out but find it very difficult keeping track of my points.
It has been very hectic in the city today with all the M1 demonstrations. I believe they were quite horrendous in Canada. Not sure how I feel about them, but violence is definetly not on.
See you all
Cheers
Maria

Well Lily congratulations on making your goal. You must be flying high. Keep up the good work. Karen I knew you were a good leader. Trudy is right to print it out. I am going to also. Yesterday my scale wasn't very nice but today it liked me. I have to quit obsessing over it. Geri It sounds like you had a good time shopping. It is always a lift to get some new things. Ann it sounds like the luau was a lot of fun. I would like to see a video of you singing. Maybe you should put it on the web. You will have to tell me where to go in New Orleans. We booked a trip yesterday for July. We are staying in the Garden District. My oldest son just got back in the early hours of the morning from there. He loved it. We went out Sat nite and heard a jazz and blues band. Was fun for a change. Have to go get ready for my painting lady. She is picking up a load of things that I painted for her and bringing more. She sells wood stuff at craft shows and malls. It pays well - use it for all of our vacations. Will check in later, Peggy I see that Slavika had to do all the work again and start the new thread.

Karen: Im not one to WI daily either. It always drove me nuts. Up then down then up. I stick to once a week and thats it for me. I wont skip a meeting either. Never have unless I was on vacation. I will probably still go once a week even after lifetime!

Trudy: I miss Donna and Josie to. Wonder where they went off to?

Geri: Good idea buying the clothes to small so you can get into them. You just reminded me I have a Wrap skirt I bought in Hawaii. I bought it to small so it would fit this summer. I need to go dig it out! I even forgot what it looks like.

Slavika: That game sounds so cute. I bet it was. I have a friend that has a Grandson in a T ball game and it is fun to watch. They are really cute and dont really know what to do. But it does make it worth watching!
ALAS I cant remember everything..........Thats why I need to go back to hawaii!

Maria: If we do make it to Australia I will diffenety let you know! Why dont you do a Web page with all the pictures you have at Picture trail? Sides once you get started Im sure you will think of something else you can add to it!

Peggy: Sounds like fun painting all the crafts. Glad it pays well enough to for all your vacations! Having fun making money! Best way to do it!

Have a great day all!

Lily - YEA! YEA! Hooray! You are at goal! :D:D:D You have been the most methodic WW I have ever known! Who cares how long it took! You did it, girl! And the best thing is----;) you will maintain the same way you have lost, steady! How much have you removed?

Slavika - you and I are in similar boats, but your boat has been to Hawaii! Mine just got swamped during Christmas. It takes me all year to get back to where I was because of a holiday! :(Go figure!

Maria - I know you probably have some boring times, but just to let you know, your life just sounds super to me. You get to explore and do anything your little heart wants to, you don't have to cook and it sounds like a long vacation. So you won't get much sympathy from me.

Yesterday I went to Oklahoma City to go to my dil's baby shower. She is a teacher and the teachers gave her a little shower after school. You wouldn't believe how much stuff she got! Some of the cutest little clothes, a Diaper Genie, a bouncy chair, just on and on. Afterwards she, my sister, my soon-to-be dil and I went out to eat. My sis is the great WW. If I were with her, I would always do well. Their husbands joined us and we laughed and visited and had a great time. My sis's oldest boy has a 3month baby boy who is having serious problems breathing. They just found out he has a mass in his sinus cavity under his eye and it is keeping him from breathing through one nostril. He is scheduled for surgery Friday. Could be a cyst, or a tumor. Keep little Gabe in your prayers please. We are all worried about him. Babies are so helpless. He is the sweetest little thing and just breathes through one nostril and thinks that is just the way to do it.

Okay, darnit! :mad: I have forgotten who said what, so I will just close. Today is a beautiful windy day and am going to go walk with my friend. Have a good evening. Slavika - Boy, do I relate about it being just 7 p.m. and being out of points!
Glenda

LilyG
05-01-2001, 05:42 PM
Glenda: Poor little gabe. I will keep him in my thoughts and prayers. Let us know as soon as the surgery is over.

I lost 62 #. But I have 3 more to go for my personnel so it will be a total of 65# gone forever.
Never to be seen again...

Hi gals.... :wave:
I am sitting on my THERA-BAND PROFESSIONAL EXERCISE BALL as I type... I have been known to roll right off it, so you can see your postings made me want to post right now. :D As I sit here I am working my abs... :smoking:
Karen.. you won't believe this, but at WW today the topic was the scale and the numbers. She weighed different articles of clothing and 4 cups of water to show how these things can affect our WI. It was a good meeting. I am now below goal by 1.2 lbs and sooo happy about it. I never dared think about my Personal Goal before, just didn't think it was possible. But I will share this with just my cyber friends :rolleyes: , I would :love: to get to 150 and that is just 3.8 away.
Lily I didn't know you had lost 62 lbs. That is just teriffic. I knew you were dedicated, I don't think you will be gaining that back either. WTG. :cool: Wrap skirts are so nice..
Glenda.. you bet little Gabe will be in my prayers. That is really terrible for the little guy to go through all of this. I really got broadsided at Christmas. I was 1 lb away from goal and then gained over the holidays, and just couldn't get my act together through Jan & Feb. Around the beginning of Mar I was able to get control. I have no idea what happens to us and why we just seem to flounder at times. :dizzy: Just don't give up, you will get control. :)
Peggy.. isn't it very hot in New Orleans during the summer months? I always looks like such an interesting place. I would really like to see your crafts.
Maria.. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! Have a wonderful day. I bet you could make a really nice web page too. Enjoy the new PC... I never heard of Dreamweaver.. is it like Windows 98?? You have to understand I am at my 1 yr anniversary with the PC and still have soooooo much to learn.
Slavika.. we sure had a nice Tea Time today even though it was just the 3 of us. :D We still had our share of laughs.. :lol:

Hope y'all had a great day.. see you tomorrow ~ bye bye...

H everyone:

Karen- Thank you so much for the good advice. It seems that sometimes it is necessary to hear someone say again, the things deep down you know to be true, but have lost sight of. Wish I could attend your meetings. As a lifetime member, I have some confusion about WI. Once a month is what I believe, and pay every time you WI and are over your goal. Am I right? Our leader says we can't just come to a meeting if we have had our monthly WI and are over, without paying each time. There have been several discussions about it, and there hasn't been any definitive answer.

Lily- Congrats again, and I know you will get that lifetime award.

Salvika- Yup a Senior Park, with a few 'Juniors' mixed in, but no children except for visits. We are an active bunch and have a lot of activities. Being the Social Club Chairperson this year has kept me busy. But I enjoy it. There is never any time to be bored. I've never been one to just sit around. I like to keep busy.

Maria- My dream is to visit Austraila. Have felt that way for many years, but am afraid I will just have to keep dreaming. We did go to see Paul Hogan in his new Crocodile Dundee movie. Some good laughs. And clean and semi- innocent, in comparison to some the the trash that is put in films now.

Glenda- I;ve been thinking about getting off track. For me I think it has been that I just got tired of always watching every bite, and just decided to eat what I wanted no matter. Then of course reality sinks in, and I start over again. Especially, when I know that if I continue on my :devil: ish ways, I'll pay in the long run with high tryglycerides and cholesterol again.

Do you ever get emails warning of computer viruses? I just got one, and so I checked with www.symantic.com/avcenter/hoax.html
and found that it was a hoax.:rolleyes: That is a good site to check into all those dire warnings that come in.

Wish I could send a picture of me in my fake sailor suit.:D But I don't have the right equipment to do it.

Oh Slavika- My husband was in the merchant service, carrying cargo, etc. Technically not Navy. After he made Captain, he then went ashore and became a ships Pilot on the St. Lawrence seaway, bringing in Salties.U.S. and Canadian vessels were not required to have pilots. Only foreign ships.

Have any of you found the Kashi? I know there was someone else I wanted to answer, but can't remember. Time to go to bed.:yawn: 'See' you tomorrow. Ann

Trudy Good for you for getting UNDER your goal weight. :) It was really nice seeing you today at Tea Time too, especially since we missed last week. :love:
I went to WW too. "ALAS" I gained 1.4#. My only excuse is I ate too much. I'll try harder this week. :)
Maria Happy Anniversay to you, and enjoy your dinner out.
Peggy Thank you so much for acknowledging that I work my poor fingers to the bone with all the stuff I have to do. LOL LOL :D
Glenda of course I will remember little Gabe in my prayers too. I hope the little munchkin will be ok. :angel:
Well night all, "talk" to you tomorrow.

slavika
05-02-2001, 12:05 AM
:wave: Hi Ann
It looks like we were posting at the same time. At our WW class, if you are at your goal weight (or 2# over)
you get weighed the first time in a calendar month. You can attend as many meetings as you wish free of charge after that for the rest of the month. However, if you are more then 2# over your goal weight you pay each time, until you are back to within the 2#. I think that is like yours...right?

LOL, what's "salties". :D

Night Ann.

Karen L
05-02-2001, 12:59 AM
Trudy we as Leaders get guidelines for our meetings we can use them or not and just wing the topic. I thought the scale meeting was important so I used it as did your leader. Sometimes the topics are boring so I find something else.

Ann the rule here is if you are over goal by more than 2 pounds you pay each time you walk through the door. After you make goal again then each month you weigh in at goal you can attend as many meeting as you want free. Does that help?

Got to go to bed.

Yea, I lost 2 lbs this week. If I were only like all of you I would be so much closer. I have about 35 more to go - 40 for personal. Maria Happy Anniversary - have fun today. I know you will go someplace nice. I am trying to picture Trudy on her exercise ball as she sits at the computer. Somehow that leaves me lol. I know I would be rolling on the floor. Have to ask my son about them. He works with patients in physical therapy and puts them thru exercises and I know they use those balls. Yes we are going to New Orleans in the heat of Juyl. There are 3 couples and one of the girls works in a school cafeteria and for some strange reason she is not allowed to take off during the year so we go around her schedule. We went to Cancun in August years ago and that was the hottest I have ever been. This is how dumb we were - we arrived in jeans- the rooms were not ready and the lobby was not air conditioned. Glenda I will say a prayer for little Gabe. It is so heartbreaking to see little ones in the hospital. Let us know how it turns out. Don't they have such cute things for babies now? It almost makes you want to have another one - I said almost. I have to go paint now. She brought me some glass to paint on. Can't wait to try it. That kind of stuff is in all the stores now. You paint it then bake it and it becomes dishwasher safe. Have a thin day, Peggy

LilyG
05-02-2001, 09:27 AM
Trudy: Good for you getting under your goal weight! You can get to you personnel one to so go for it! Im cheering for you!


Ann: That suprises me about the meetings and Lifetime. I know at my meeting Lifetime members can attend any time they want. They only have to WI once a month, and pay only if they are over. Actually any member can attend any meeting they want. They just have to pay the once a week fee. When I have needed extra WW air I have gone to 2 meetings in a week and only paid for one. And I know others that have done it to.
Yep eat Kashi all the time. Like the Kashi Go lean Bars to.

Slavika: You Poor overworked person. I promise to start the new thread when its time. It is a tuff job but I will help when I can. ;) Glad you 2 had a good Tea time! Think it would be so fun if all of us were closer.

Peggy: Good for you! 2# is great! Youll get there. So just keep hanging in there.
I love looking at the new baby clothes to. They really do have some really cute things now. Course they always did.

Have a good day all!

Good morning all-

Slavika- A 'Saltie' is an ocean going ship. Most of the other ones is the Seaway are what are called 'Lakers" They just travel the Great Lakes and the River. Sometimes they would take a pilot but they were not required by law to do so. The 'Salties' are all foreign ships, and had to have a pilot. Many of them had crews who didn't speak english at all. I know Phil had some interesting jobs.

Thanks all for the meeting info. That is the way I understood the rules, but we have one lady who thinks that since she is a lifetime member, and is 20lbs over her goal weight, that she still sould be able to come to other meetings after the first of the month WI and not pay. That is what caused all the discussion.:spin:

Lily- I think Kashi is a California product. I haven't tried anything that I didn't like. I can't get my DH to eat the pilaf tho' I have to disguise it. I think my favorite is the Go-Lean Cereal.But I do like the Kash Krispies made from the Puffed Kashi, for a low point treat.

I've finally decided that with my CRS problem, I have to take notes as I read the post or I lose track of who said what. :dizzy: So if I respond inappropriately I hope you'll give me a break.:?:

A tour of the River Plantations around New Orleans is a great trip. There are some out-standing houses there. Certainly shows the way of life before the Civil War. And a day trip on one of the big River boats is good too. We took a guided tour while there and found it of great interest. And of course, the night life around Bourbon Street is unique. I liked being able to sit in an outdoor cafe and listen to Dixieland jazz. Lots of street musicians. We were there when it was hot also, but you manage. Lots of sunscreen and air-conditioned shops.And comfortable shoes of course.

Prayers for little Gabe.

It's nice Slavika and Trudy can get together. It would be fun to meet in person. Will check back later with pencil in hand.:rolleyes:Ann

G'day all,

Just when I thought how clever I was setting up my new computer, Lily comes along and gives the brilliant advise of using Notepad.
I have the same problems Ann, I sometimes take notes but this is so much easier.
Well I still think I am very clever :D getting myself hooked up with my service provider again and loading all my programs back onto this new one. I already notice how much quicker it is.
Trudy I think you are very clever if you have only recently started using computers. In my previous life (working full time as a sales manager) I used computers a lot and went to heaps of courses that the company provided. I have been very fortunate having had that training. I don't think computers are that difficult to use once you know it!!! When doing the Adobe Photoshop course, I learnt so many things that were soooo simple once you knew them. Dreamweaver is a very powerful program to create webpages 'easily' (when you know how). I have used Frontpage but this is supposed to be much better. I bought the software for future s-i-l and we share it.
Lily you are probably right, I might just start a page with my photos and go from there. I love craft work, gardening and travel so I could perhaps expand it in those directions.
I had a great day yesterday, I bought the outfit for my daughters wedding. It is by a designer I would never have dreamt I could afford to buy. There is a factory outlet here in Sydney and I went there and found the ideal outfit for a fraction of the full price.
There is a catch, I can squeeze myself in but it would be very uncomfortable so more incentive to loose this weight. I have till January 26 2002.
Glenda if I come across as whinging at times about my life, I really don't mean to and I do realise how fortunate I am. :) I do miss home though at times.
Talking of my life, we are on the move yet again!!!
We are moving to Melbourne Friday week for 6 weeks. As you know my daughter lives there so I am really looking forward to seeing her a little longer than during a quick sojourn.
I am justing starting to get used to Sydney and find my way about, never mind we have learnt lots how to cope with the continual change in our lives and how to appreciate our opportunities.
We went out to dinner last night for our anniversary. We went to a Mongolian restaurant. Don't know if you have them where you are but I loved it. You fill a bowl with your choice of meat, veggies, sauces etc. then it is instant put on a very hot drum (no oil) and is more or less stirfried for a few minutes and voila, there is your meal. I thought it was great because I could really control the amount of meat and veggies.
Worth going again.
I have gone on long enough again
Have a great day
Cheers
Maria

Hi Everybody
I thought my dishwasher was sounding a little pitiful yesterday :( and right now it sounds like the Orient Express is running through my kitchen. I have had it serviced in the past (of course) but I checked to see how long I've had it and couldn't believe it...since 1992. DH thought he was being funny, and said, "see how time flies when you are having fun". :dz:

Saw my friend today for lunch and just a bit of shopping. I thought if I saw a nice pair of jeans I would buy them, but will have to go to a bigger mall to look. I did buy a new belt, to wear WITH jeans tho. I also bought something at Wal-mart called Team Tassels. You buy little baseballs, footballs, soccer balls etc made by the "Wrights" sewing supplies and ribbon in the team colours you want. You then make little tassels, by attaching the ribbon to the holes they provide in the balls. I thought my grandbabies would like them. I'll make one for the great "baseball player" and one for the Princess who is playing soccer again this year. They are made to hang off the zippers on jackets or on backpacks. :)
~~~~ Peggy ~~~~~WTG with the 2# weight loss. You gals are running circles around me. My goal weight is 150#, and I think I was 157# yesterday. :(
It sounds like you do a lot of different crafts. Do they mostly involve painting?
Lily hi there. You sure are using some cute avatars lately. I noticed today when I shopping that there really is a lot of wrap skirts out this season.
Ann was your husband gone for long periods of time on the ships? Tea Time for all of us......... Trudy and I probably talk about you gals on this board more then you do about the two of us because we both "KNOW" you. :)
Maria I also think you have a lot of computer knowledge. I have never taken a computer course, but both my Son and Trudy's daughter graduated from University with Computer Science degrees and they teach us some things (or at least get us out of trouble). When Trudy learns something new she shares with me, and if I "EVER" learn something, I'll share with her. Lily too, has bailed me out more then once. :angel:
Ok, gals, talk to you all tomorrow. Night.

Lily... If you want to "help" Slavika by starting a new thread, you will have to get up at the crack of dawn ~ have you ever noticed the exact time she starts these threads? :rolleyes: Hmmmmmm? You come to our aid so many times concerning the PC... you really know so much about it. Thanks for the Notepad trick.
Maria What is the outfit you will be wearing to the wedding like? That is teriffic incentive to lose those dreaded lbs. I have never worn my outfit since my DD's wedding, thought I would. I have never tried Mongolian food. After the 6 weeks in Melbourne do you go home?
Ann when is the best time to travel to New Orleans, is there a rainy season we should avoid?
Peggy are you driving to New Orleans? There was a lady on the Shopping Channel who was showing how to paint on glass. It really looked nice. :)

I worked out at the gym this morning and went out for lunch and then shopping in the afternoon ~ my kind of day. :D Geri are you still reading the posts at your gym? Let us know what you are up to. :)

Well, good night all.... :wave:....

Slavika.. when I was downtown today I was looking at the demin clothing, and there weren't any jeans with pleats. Guess you will have to try the other malls, but if you see something grab it because they are far and few between. :?: I don't know who the manufacturers are making clothes for. All the tops had lycra in them and sure weren't flattering when I tried them on. :dizzy:

Good night again :angel:

Lily I don't mean to confuse you. I meant that A life time member pays for the meeting if she over 2# of her goal she then can attend as many meetings that week as she wants .That also applies to current members. But then if she wants to attend a meeting the next week she has to pay if she is still over goal just like the current members. The only thing different is that a lifetime member never has to pay for missed meeting. As soon as a lifetimer is back at goal she no longer pays. Had to give some one her money back tonight. Did that make more sense. I get befuddled:dizzy: sometimes when I try to explain thing like this. :rolleyes:

Peggy weigh to go on your 2 pounds :cool:

Slavika I think I would roll over and die if my dishwasher broke. Maybe I should keep a spare??:D

Maria: You do know alot about puters. If you can set one up and get the programs on it!
Thats alot of knowledge right there. Moving again? Dont know how you do it. But at least this time you will be close to your daughter. And that will be fun!
Think you got a good idea for your page going! Yes I have been to Mongolian Barbeque befre. Its great because you can control what you get and it is really good.

Slavika: Yep sounds like its time for a new dishwasher. Wish they could last forever but they never do. Those Team Tassles sound really cute. Your grandbabies are gonna love them!

Trudy: No I never did notice how early she started them, until now. Shes on her own then! :) Im driving to work at that time!

Peggy: I know those kids are so fun to watch! I really get a kick out of them!

Ann: I have not seen the Kashi Krisps you mention. I will have to look for them. I did not care for the Puffed Ceral at all tho. Are the Krisps different than that ceral? Or is it something you make from the cereal?
