Hey everyone!
I think I'm going to go insane. I was on the last line of what probably was my longest post yet and I had replyed to everyone individually and I was so proud of it and I went to include that last smiley........
AND I LOST MY AOL CONNECTION AND LOST THE WHOLE BLAME THING! Ok, having said that, I will now try to condense what I have typed. Other than wanting to kill the computer right now, my husband is first in line. He is driving me crazy. For those of you that don't know, I work thirds and he works seconds, and he wakes me up every day blowing his nose. Now, you might think that's not a very big deal, but you have never heard this man blow his nose. It's like a big elephant gun going off. I just know that pea-sized brain of his is going to shoot out while he's blowing and we'll never find it because it is so small.
I think I'll just kill him and tell everyone he died.
Lord, knows I love him though. Ok, on to individual replies.
Kat: Congrats on the choice of fruit and all that exercise you've been doing. I've been putting off the exercise this week and you just motivated me to get off my butt. And we ALL feel like kicking that scale's A$$ from time to time!
Malia: Isn't it nice to wear clothes that used to be tight and they fit or are even lose? I love it. I wore a pair of pants to my WW meeting Tuesday night that I got for Christmas and they were too tight and that night, they seemed "loose"! I loved it!
Lucky: Don't worry too much about staying the same. And I know you might think that's easy for me to say, because me and the scale have been getting along so well lately, but I am a success before I ever step on that scale. Yes, I do want that instant reward that the scale gives me,
but, if I know that I've stayed within my points, exercised a moderate amount and drank my water, then no matter what the scale says, I am a winner. All I know is that I will be able to do all the things I have never been able to do and that for me is better than what the scale says. "
My weight is nothing more than the number on my scale, and I refuse to be judged by a number." Good Lord....I sound like a WW advertisement.
Also sorry to hear about you past co-workers. That is really hard.
Grannie: Congrats on being able to attach those little buggers! It took me forever to learn too. Hope your having a nice week.
TT: I love the way you described the snow. Where I live we hardly ever get any snow, and I would love to have some. The way you described it reminded me of the scene from "A Christmas Story" where Ralphie wakes up on Christmas morning and all the snow is clinging to the trees and it is just beautiful! Also, sorry you are sick my friend. {{Hugs}} to you. Feel better.
p.a: Congrats to you on the weight loss girl! You are doing it too!
Baylee: Ok, I am going to try to tell you how to attach the pictures at the end of your post without confusing you. When I first asked someone to tell me how, they said to just click on "browse" at the end of the post and add my picture. The only problem was: I didn't have any pictures saved! Now, first to add them, you have to have the pictures. To start, whenever you see a cute attachment at the end of a post, "right" click on it, and the window will pop up and click on "save picture as". That will pull up another window to either your documents or your pictures and the name of the little animation will be in the window and you click on "save" and viola! You have the picture saved. Do this everytime you see an animation that you like. You can also do a search on the internet for "animated gifs" and there are tons of websites you can go onto and do what I told you above and save them for when you want to use them. Now, once you are ready to post. Click on "browse" at the bottom of the post and it will pull up all of the animations that you have saved......click on the one you want to add "just once" and then click on "open" and that will add it to the bottom of post. Note: If you click on "Review Reply" to see what you have written before you submit it, it will not show your attachment, but when you click on "Submit", it will be on the thread. Hope I have helped a little.
I hope I haven't forgotten anyone. But I've been typing like a madwoman before it bumps me off again, because I just don't have the strength to type all this again. I think I now have arthritis!
And last but certainly not least:
2cute: In case you are lurking around here somewhere. We love you and miss you and hope you are ok. My prayers go out to you and your Mom and Dad.
Now, what I am thankful for:
1. My little boy is still sick, but better.
2. For all my friends here. I don't know how I've made it without you this long {{{{{Hugs}}}}}
3. My hubby. Even if he does blow his nose too loud.
