Nally, Margaret and her family are definitely in my prayers.
Ruth, thanks for the update! The tourtierre sounds yucky (thankfully), but the wine sounds heavenly and fun! Do you do the squishing and the bottling or just bottling? Do you have to provide the grapes?
My mom swore by homemade dog food too. We feed our dog Animaet, which is all human-grade ingredients. When I'm a SAHM, we may switch to BARF...I may be picking your brain then!
I'm so glad that Hershey is doing well now!
Anchor, I'm sorry all this drama came along with your cutie!
I think your instincts are right. Why don't you tell him that you care about him and want to get to know him better too, but he needs to deal with his ex first. He may be over her but she's obviously not over him. He needs to get her into counseling and make her understand it's over. If for nothing else, for his DD. She will want to know her mom when she grows up, and needs to know why she walked out. If it was post-partum depression, his DD will understand much better than if it's just a big unknown, you know? You certainly don't need to feel guilty for hanging out with him! I think his raising his DD is incredibly sweet and wonderful...shows that he's more than just a cutie-pie!
You must be very proud of yourself for indulging in health rather than ice cream!
: Have you thought about joining OA? I'm an emotional eater too and it helped me a lot. Though it sounds like you are doing fine on your own, it never hurts to have a backup.

Ellis, I have IBS too, but never had it aggravated by tea. I'm sorry, hon!
Oy, the downward dog gets my goat! (I think Bamie's affecting my speech patterns
) I hate it too. Our Yoga instructor thinks it's fantastic...
It really hurts my arms. I showed my sisters and they both agreed that my arms are too short!
Oh well, guess there's not much I can do about that!
Have a great weekend chickies!
So I said - why didn't you call 911 and let them take her to the psych ward for observation because the walking out on her own baby and threatning to commit suicide - I think she needs some help. I suffered from post partum depression after DS was born and it was one of the reasons I ate myself into a size 22. And you know what - I can't deal with this. I don't want to be stuck in a triangle. Obviously they have issues to work through and that is what I told him this week. He got really upset and said that it was over between them when she left him and the baby (which I believe) and that he wants to be with me and spend time getting to know me better. I told him I would have to think about it and I haven't heard from him for a couple of days. I'm not sure what to do. So I'm just going to take some time to think about things and not call him for awhile. It makes me sad because I did enjoy his company. Oh well - at least I haven't buried myself in Ben & Jerrys Cherry Garcia. You all have taught me well. If anything I'm even more OP right now. 
That also means I have time to apply to jobs...Laurie I'm glad the scale moved down! YAY! always exciting! 
Ellis a book and a blanket sounds like heaven...I'm so jealous! 
and need to get it off!!
I have Rayney because of crap like that. She is actually my granddaughter. My DH and I adopted her. We have had her since she was 2 months old. 
My oldest daughter (20 at the time of Rayney's birth) also went through post partum and didn't want anything to do with the baby. The biological father was a nutcase also. 
Still is. So we took her and we have raised her. Believe me - I have had my share of domestic disputes at my home involving the two of them. I think I heard suicide at LEAST 5 times a week between the two of them. NO FUN. Absolutely Not good for the baby either. Rayney pratically jumped out of her skin when she was 2 months old if you shut the door too hard. 
But I'll keep on praying for them until every single one of them is home.

And I thought I was going to do more Tae Bo this morning....HA! 
Hmmm....sorry Eagles fans, I have to go with the Patriots! I can't believe T.O. is going to play....he drives me crazy sometimes! He's so full of himself although I guess we have Randy Moss who is the same way. 
DH and I are watching the game at my sister's house in the Dude Room. I'm bringing a bunch of different OP things so I won't eat all the junk that she has. I'm looking forward to next weekend as I'm part of the So. Cal Vikings Club and they're having their annual dinner. A bunch of the players come out and will sign autographs and just hang out with the fans. I can't wait! 
Sorry cold chicks!
