It's been snowing on and off here, nothing to heavy. My sister lives in another city about 3 hours south of here and they usually have better weather then us but the other day they had a snow fall warning I called her up like nothing was happening "So... how's it going?". She was not impressed. LoL - Sisterly love.

Josey - you might live in the same place as my sister

I'm finally healthy, it's about freaking time!!! Got on the treadmill yesterday, managed to run almost 5k.

Hope you guys are doing well...

Donna - hope it's not still so cold up there.

HI GALS ~ I have tried to post in here so many times over the last while and my PC has been acting up something aweful. I'd get one post in another forum (if any at all) then my PC was jamming up on me. Today, it seems calm, so I'll get this typed in as fast as I can ...

Thanks for holding down the fort ladies; we had a big snow storm here last week. We had mild temps which melted lots, then the storm hit dropping 1-2 feet in one night ... Since then we've had mostly and cooler temps though. Today, some snow was actually melting from the sunshine.

Have been eating very well this month; really pleased with my progress this year. Only one day,we had some popcorn for a snack and the rest was healthy & light; which evened things out well for me. We are looking forward to spring this year too.

I know the powers that be may say that spring was supposed to be officially here on the 21st of March, but I think we need to wait a bit longer in Canada to April at least when the snow stops falling and is melting over most of the country, I think ...

to the NEWBIES; congrats on all the successes; prayers for the colds & flues to go away. Hope you all have a wonderful week coming up too ... Rosebud

I still think we should start a spring thread.... maybe that will encourage it. What do you guys think?

I agree with the spring thread idea. I would do it, but I don't know how. Hahaha. I've been on this site for almost four years and I have no clue.
