KAT !!!! How did I miss YOU ???? I even had your name on my notes. :o
You had done soooo well exercising... and I made a note "love" next to it.
I just don't know if you loved to exercise or I loved your exercise or what. :dizzy:
My note taking skills :write: has something to be desired. LOL
I am sooooooo sorry.... okay... who else did I forget ??? :coach: SPEAK UP !!!

Jen... WOW ... what a party !!! :hat: You are doing MORE for a 4 year olds party than I am doing for my daughters WEDDING !!!!! :dunno: LOL
It is good to hear you sound so up and positive again. ;)


:lucky: LUCKY !!!!! I always keep a little prayer going that you would be back.
I am sooooooo happy to see you. :D

I just am having too much fun posting today. LOL

Other than my constant battle to find my "click" and stick to losing weight, this year, so far has been the pits.

1. December 31, January 2, and January 3rd I had no heat because my furnace quit.

2. I had to get a new battery in my car.

3. My sump pump quit so I didn't have any water at the end of January. I have a temporary fix right now but they can't pull the pump up and see what the problem is until the ground thaws.

4. Because people were coming in my house to go into the basement for the sump pump I had to put my cat in the spare bedroom. When I went to let him out when I got home from work the door was locked. Now I know Dusty is smart but I just don't think he is the one that locked the door!!!!! :lol: I think when my cousin was staying here a couple weeks earlier he must have turned the lock button. Anyway, I had to bust into the room wrecking some of the molding.

5. We have had snow, snow, snow and I have to pay $35.00 every time they come to plow me out. I figure they have been here 12 to 15 times so far.

6. I had to pay my car insurance.

7. My microwave quit.

ALL of this in just the first two months of 2004 - so I have been in a funk. I get scared to touch anything for fear it will break.

A couple machines at work broke too and I just KNOW they are suspicious of me!!!!! ;)

I haven't been on the computer much so I haven't been lurking either. I did notice today there are some newbie's - WELCOME!!! As you can see, once you post on this thread, you become one of us and "some" will haunt you if you try and quit!!!!

So I am off now (since I have a clear conscious having posted) to have lunch and :coffee: .

Syn: I am still making your Chai Tea - everyone loves it. Do we know how many calories are in it? If using Splenda?

Did you all see the new commercial with Mr. Tony Stewart? Can't ever see him without thinking of Tina.

I will post again - probably sooner than my recent pattern indicates. :o

Roll Call

I've been lurking. My daughter has joined, and because of cookies or something I am having trouble switching between her name and mine. I fell hard this week, and am working and getting back up on on with it. Hope everyone enjoys their Sunday and has a good week.

Bringing this over from another thread....

hello everyone!

I am new to this Forum and this looks like a wonderful place to be.

A little about myself; I have lots of weight to lose; and have been losing weight slowly the past couple of years with incorporating healthier eating choices; Lifelift aerobic breathing as my primary exercise; and eating several mini-meals each day.

In November 2003 I started making more changes; and have added a lot of veggies and very little 'white' carbs.

I'm glad to be here!

Take care,
Wanda

BlueHairFawn / Judy/ Kantsing ??? :?:
I am confused.... :dizzy:
You did roll call as Kantsing.. help me out here.... ??? :shrug:

Lucky... sorry to hear of all of your woes. Just remember... you have shoulders to cry on here to help you carry some of that burden. :love:

Hey, ladies! :wave: I've had a nice day so far. Honey and I worked for a bit this morning taking pictures of some items. I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do as far as accounts and such. Don't fully understand how e-Bay works, exactly so not sure what I need to do. But I'll be ready soon.

Went to lunch with my cousin's ex-wife. I've always really liked her, heck, all of the family has so we still continue to see her even though they've been divorced now for some years. They got married the year before Honey and I and have 2 sons, each one year older than each of my 2 boys so I've always felt close to her. Her youngest son is getting married in November and she's been looking for a place to hold the rehearsal dinner. The kids (bride and groom) want someplace fun and casual, she's not sure what kind of place that is, so we've been meeting for lunch on occasion to try different places.

Honey is out watching the Nascar race and the boys are sleeping, one on the couch and one in the recliner. Exciting Sunday here, yes sir! :yes:

Barbg: I'm guessing you won't be making the trip to OK in the backseat of the Excursion then, will you??? Maybe from now on you better call "shotgun". :D

Andria: You've got me curious about that "special wedding program" now. Spill the beans. What was that about???

Melissa: "Trailers" is another name for "previews". When I do a "trailer check" I have to go into each auditorium showing a particular movie and list all of the filmed advertisements AND all of the previews of coming attractions. Easy job and usually we stay to see the movie.

2cute: Yes, honey, you could do Curves too! :D There are only 2 machines that I can think of that may be a little harder on your knees, but the one is actually for the thighs and the other is for doing squats. The one for squats is my nemisis, but I do it anyway. I figure I can do 10 in the 30 or 35 seconds per machine and I go around twice. So I figure, 60-75 seconds, I can make it. :D BlueHairFawn is Kathleen but she just signs her name as Blue. She is Kantsing's daughter. Kantsing is Judy.

Jen: 3 pounds is GREAT! And my goodness, you sound busy! :spin: Boy, time is sure flying by. I bet you never thought that these last 6 weeks would have gone this quickly and that DH will be due home in another 6. That's wonderful. * You didn't mention that bike of yours in this post. Don't make that salesman right about you not using it. ;)

Katrina: We have ALL missed you. Where have you been? Stop pouting, we ALL love you! I figured you must be off having a life somewhere. :o Been to the City lately to do something fun? Or was Rod Stewart as much fun as you could handle for awhile? :lol:

Lucky: I sure wish you'd hurry out of that funk. I miss you. We didn't get to hear about your 16 feet of snow and all the shoveling you had to do this winter. Are you guys thawed out yet? How's the job? How's the love life? Come on, girlfriend, get back to posting with us. Pleeeeaaaasssseeeee.... ***Well, the previous is what I wrote before I read your second post. I think I'm sorry I asked. You poor thing! [[[hugs]]] I did have to laugh at "you become one of us and "some" will haunt you if you try and quit!!!!" That is the truth, we will hunt you down and haunt you if you try and leave us. :lol: That Coke-Nascar commercial is playing on the big screen at the movies, which is where I first saw it. And I agree with you, everytime I see it, I think of Tina.

Judy: I wonder why you can't get in, both you and your daughter. Do you each have a different e-mail address attached to your account here?

Wanda: Welcome to our little corner of the world. We're glad to have you. I brought your post over here so that the other girls wouldn't miss you. Hope you don't mind. I hope the PM I sent you helps you to navigate our area a little better. Post often. We love newbies.

Well girls, time for me to say goodbye and get something done around here. I'll see you all later. Love :love: ya bunches.

I should have taken note, I thought about all the replys I want to make, but can't think of who made which comment, so I'll just ramble and if you read something that pertains to you, good. If not, sorry.

1.) Oxycise...Yes they do have a commuter tape. It's a 15 minute workout. I've just about worn mine out. I would recommend it to anyone, but especially to those who have problems with "regular" exercise, wheither it be knee, shortness of breath, or whatever. I am on a roll, and have done it 5 night in a row now. It reallys takes about two weeks of being consistent with it to start seeing results, but it is really amazing how quickly the inches start falling off once you start. BUT it doesn't work to just have it sitting on the VCR you have to do it, and be consistent with it. (That's my problem, consistency)

2.) E-bay I would like to know everybodies e-bay name so I could see what type of things you are selling. We sell lots of our disontinued stock on e-bay, and when we had the antique store, I sold a lot of pottery, but now all I do is BUY!

3.) Sjorgrens Syndrome: It was me and not BarbPA that mentioned it. That is the reason I was kicked off this last research study. I have it and the medication that I take for it disquallified me for the study. What it is, is an auto-immune disease related to rheumotid arthritis and lupus. It is treated by a Rheumatoligist. What it does is, the body attacts the fluid producing glands. Most people who suffer with SS (including me) have unusually dry eyes, dry mouths, unusually chronic fatique, and aches and pains in almost all joints. My doc says that is why my arthritis is so advanced for a person my age, because the glands that are supposed to keep the joints lubricated don't work and it's dry bones on dry bones.

4) Welcome to all the new posters, I still consider myself a newbie here, but I love hanging out here.

Hi everybody! :wave:

I don't like this roll call crap one bit!!! :drill: Just because a few of us didn't add our names to the list, it's like we don't exist. :dunno: So I'm starting my little list of "outcasts" who were forgotten. Hah!!! ;)

1. Jenhari
2. ThinThinker
3. BlueHairFawn
4. Wanda (she's new, cut her a break) :)

Pat: Great to see you! Glad your knee is healing well.

JoeAnne: Are you still getting freezes down there? I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. We had 68 degrees on Friday and it was snowing tonight. :shrug: We can't win!!!

Barbg: I'm intrigued. What exactly is Oxycize??? * Once I get stuff up on e-Bay I'll send you my user name, but currently there isn't anything there. I'll have to PM it to you though as it's against the rules here to advertise. :)

Ok, I hope you guys know I was being a smart a$$ up above. I'm not really upset, just pulling your leg. :o

I'm hoping tomorrow morning at WI (not Wisconsin) that I will be happily surprised. :goodscale:
Then in the afternoon I will be on my way to Curves again for my workout. :workout: :barbell: :strong:

I'm going to bed now. :yawn: See ya later.

LOL! Thanks for adding me to the "outcasts" list Thin! :lol:

As for my exercise bike, yes, that has been part of my mission the last few days. I've used it the past two days for 15 minutes each time, then 15 of Tae Bo. The week before that was my TOM and I didn't touch the bike, but I also REFUSED to hang clothes on it LOL!!

Anyhoo, once again I am a busy bee today. It's time for me to get my kiddies up and fed and dressed and off to school. Then I'm going to come home and DO MY EXERCISE!!! Take a shower, drink my protein sludge and take all my vitamins. Then it's off to the PX, Post office, clothing & sales shop to get the new rank insignias for my DH's uniforms, return some movies, the other post office where my PO box is to pick up phone bill and then go pay it, the gas station, and if I can get all that done before it's time to pick up the kids again (cuz nothing opens around here until 10 for pity sake :rolleyes: ) I will try to start getting my yardsale stuff tagged and organized. The only good thing about stuff not opening earlier than 10 is that I have no excuse to not do my exercise after I drop the kids off cuz there's really not much else I can be doing. However, i seem to come up with things an awful lot to distract me....like laundry...but usually Dr. Phil LOL!! :lol:

Well, I better get moving. Talk at you all later,
Jen
:wave:

:o :o :o
Oh my goodness.... I did miss a couple of you. :o
Sorry.... I am just keeping everyone on their toes. LOL
But .... in my own self defense... BlueHairFawn signed in herself as Kantsing... that is where I got so confused. :dizzy: LOL
And Thin.... how did you forget to add yourself earlier. ?? LOL
And Jen too.... we all got all wrapped up in reading and posting and forgot about roll call. LOL You guys are certainly not "outcasts" ... maybe outlaws though. :shrug: :lol:

Jen... I loved your determination to NOT use your bike as a clothes rack. :rofl:

Thin... I see we have some new smilies.... cool. :cool:
I want your ebay site too... I may just buy you out. :judge: "Sold !!!! to 2cute"
PS ... yes I knew you were teasing. ;)

okay, hopefully we can keep this roll call going.... be sure to add yourself ladies. ... or ask us to. ;)
