i am getting better (sort of) but going thru a big dilemma about whether to move back to auckland. at first when i put the house on the market i was planning on moving to the country but having 2nd thoughts. in akl now just checking msgs at internet cafe and planning my dinner! (alone)

had the most divine hot chocolate with a divine man. he's married the inconsiderate ******* but we are great friends. dropped the dogs off this morning at the kennels. it adds nearly an hour to the journey would be so much nicer if i could leave them with someone and i felt sooooo sad to leave my girls behind. i love them dearly

anyway it's all food for thought. still have my sinus headache and tired but hopefully i will come to a decision while i am here? and at least i am catching up with people. have lunch with 2 friends tmrw.

feeling good all things considered. i am the only non asian in the internet cafe. what a laugh. but it is cheap so who cares. anyway wanted to say hello to you all and let you know i am making progress and going forward

angela we all have bad days, hope you had fun at the birthdays anyway!!!

hey wendy and sharon nice to see you

Hello Ladies,

Have been away for so many days it seems, our internet and email were down at work on Friday and have taken their time as well today. Most of us are now on the net and so it's a bit slow!

My diet has hit the rocks in a big way at present. TOM is coming and not really sure why I'm so de-motivated. It has got really cold here as well, so I just want food to keep warm. I'm off in two weeks to visit friends and want to look good as they haven't seen me for over a year. Will try and chill a bit on the eating front, but push the exercise for the next few weeks and hope for the best. Didn't even weigh myself this week so that it wouldn't sabotage me any more than necessary.

Welcome Sharon. Look forward to getting to know you.

Okay, I have work and should really get back to doing it, but my head is hurting and I'm not keen...

Yea, I know that its hard. My son (20 yrs old) moved out about 5 months ago. It was really hard for me at first, especially when I didn't hear from him in about 2 weeks. (I know it isn't that long but it seems like it at first) But now he usually calls once a week for me to do his luandry
I learned that believe it or not you get used to it. You worry about them regardless if they live at home or out of the house.
I still have two more at home 19 and 16 to go through this again and again..

Hi ladies! Sorry it took so long to get back! Between looking after a 2 year old and trying to get some exercise in it's been a busy day!

As for seeing the little birdie leave the nest,I'm hopeing to keep my birdie for another 15-18 years!! He's only 2 so we have a good long way to go for that!

Well, Thst's me for the evening! Have a good one!

Wendy,
You have a little feeling what its like when your little guy starts school...I cried so hard when all 3 of mine started kindegarden and got on that bus. They were so excited I couldn't let them see that they were breaking mommy's heart.
