I'm back
Hi everyone,
I have had a very hectic few months and fell off the LAWL wagon big time.
All of my staff at work was gone so I was manning the entire center alone for all of April, then spent a big part of may training the new people. I lost the first house I put an offer on (including my earnest money) at the eleventh hour, went crazy trying to find another house because I was due to be out of my home I was renting, lucked up on a great home, but I almost lost that one with a contract that had to be extended twice (terrible mortgage company) that meant that I have been living out of boxes at my old house and the new one for about 2 months total and it makes it really easy to live off of take-out and pizza.
I am still working about 50 hours a week (hope to calm down after the fiscal year ends on the 30th), taking two summer classes, trying to unpack and we have a stray dog that we have adopted and she is a handful. I have tried to get back on track with the plan a couple of times, but now that I have finally unpacked my kitchen I have no excuses left, so I am back and doing TO today and tomorrow. Scared to WI, but I am sure I am in the 160’s somewhere (I will WI after I’m done with TO)
Hope to get time to read through the threads and learn about all of the newbies since I left, but I wanted to start everything fresh including getting back on here so that I can get the support I miss.
Glad to back and glad that all of my crisis phase is over.
Katie, Heather, heather, Carmen, Barb, Beanie, Lori and everyone else… I missed you guys.

Hi and wow what a handful you had to go through! I'm one of the newbies you spoke of, I just started two days ago but I'm already an addict to these boards. My name is Sommer. I personally hate that transition when you move in and you're not really comfortable being in it yet. Good luck with the new place!

Wow! I have been away since November and it is so cool to see so many of you still on here AND how much you have all lost! You guys are awesome!
I fell off LAWL, and have started back up over the last few weeks. Currently doing Take Off using the Knudsens (tastes sooooo much better!).
I am determined to make it! Thanks for still being here! It is such an inspiration! Enjoy the evening!
