Good Afternoon, Flowers!
It's another beautiful day here in Iowa. The sun is shining, the sky is bright blue, and the snow is melting fast! I have to go grocery shopping tonight and am NOT looking forward to it; I hate that job more each time I go!
Donna -- Thanks for sharing your picture! There is such a difference from the Christmas picture you posted! Making a weight loss scrapbook is a good idea and great motivation for not going back up the scale again.
Bubbles -- One of my coworkers just went to a "Love and Logic" workshop and came back with a comment to give to whiney kids. "It really sucks being you, doesn't it?" I love it and wish we could use it at school -- we'll have to think of some way to put it a little nicer. When they roll their eyes at you, you can say,
"did you see your brain in there?" If you don't know the person/people who wrote/received the letters, I wouldn't hesitate to sell them. After all, you can enjoy a new kitchen while the history buffs enjoy the letters. Right? I need a haircut also; actually, a teeny, tiny trim would do since my perm is just about gone. You and I have to get our "poop in a group" and get the scale to go down instead of up! I didn't weigh in this week because I knew the scale would show a gain and I just didn't want to stand in a long waiting line for that. It truly is a miracle that Jessica Lynch was rescued. My daughter's best friend's husband just got out of the Air Force in October. He has received two letters from the USAF: the first one told him to get his family matters in order and the second one said he would have 5 days to report once the final notification came through. He was in military police or whatever they are called so he is at least hoping to stay stateside. They just had a baby in Feb. so I feel so bad for them.
Maggie -- What kind of computer did you get? You are the second person to tell me that they were unhappy with Gateway's service. The first person wasn't happy with the tech. support. With all of the layoffs, I don't know where Gateway is headed. My daughter still has a job but I don't know for how long. DH would like a flat screen TV but he thinks the price will come down and they will be more affordable later. He also wants a bigger screen but the relic we have now is working just fine!
I need to go make my list and get the leftovers started for supper. Have a terrific Thursday, Flowers!
Jean -- in Iowa!
