Howdy everyone!
Hope you are all having as nice a day as I am. It's 72 degrees in sunny :sun: Michigan today. Definitely a nice change from Winter!!! I could live with this temperature year round. I really don't like it too much warmer than this. And too much colder is just depressing!
I went to work and then did some Fling and grocery shopping. I don't mind the shopping and buying stuff, but I HATE putting it all away. I found a decent price on some Top Sirloin steaks, so I think firing up the grill in the next couple of days will be in order.
I also found a nice buy on a beef roast so crock pot here that comes. I haven't eaten much beef in quite some time so I think the roast will probably go in the freezer for a couple of weeks. I bought some Top Round steaks to slice up for either quasadillas or tortillas. I think I'll probably freeze that as well. Can you tell they had a beef sale at the grocery??
Jazz: Did it ever stop raining out there by you? I saw some news reports and it didn't look too good. Are you ok?
Rosie: I'm sorry, but that's really nasty about your foot. I can't believe that they cannot accommodate a larger person! Absolutely disgusting that a health care facility cannot handle it. I hope you find somewhere soon that can take care of you. I'm with whoever said, lie about your weight. I think I've been 250 on my driver's license for the past 20 years.
Jill: I wondered where you were and figured you must have your hands full with that new busy schedule. Glad to see you checking in. *I often slip into the "not eating enough" routine. Sometimes you just have to force it, especially when you finally get your head around the fact that you have to eat a certain amount to actually lose.
Terri: I hope the buy out truly is a good thing for you all. Honey has been involved in a company that got bought out twice. The first time was fine....only improvements. The second time, however, they bought 'em and moved all the jobs out of state.
That sent everyone into unemployment. Not fun!
Shop: I don't think you ever said, do you work or go to school? * I bet California is beautiful this time of year. Are you close to the ocean?
Barbg: Thanks for putting together and organizing chat last night. It was great fun. Fast paced for this old girl, but fun, nonetheless. We really had a great turnout.
Julee: Boy, I'm usually full of advice but I don't know on your old friend situation. Everyone here has basically said to give her a second chance. I'm usually very forgiving, but you said she said some REALLY NASTY things to you before you parted ways and I just don't know. I think, here's my 2 cents worth again
, that you're just going to have to go with your gut. If you truly miss her, like your life isn't full without her, then I guess I would say proceed....but VERY CAUTIOUSLY. If she's someone you can do without, then??????
I usually go back and see if anyone has posted while I'm writing before I "submit" my reply and sure enough, there you were with an update. I was going to erase what I wrote above, but figured I would just add another 2 cents. Boy, now you REALLY owe me!
I'm glad that you were able to tell your friend (former/current/ex????) just like it is. The first great step is honesty and it sounds like you laid it all right out there for her. GOOD FOR YOU!!! Maybe bygones, should be bygones.
Good luck with this NEW relationship.
Melissa: There are a couple companies that have you jump through a bunch of hoops called "training", but usually I don't have the time for them so I just work for others.
And it's funny, but some of them that have the MOST HOOPS, pay the LEAST!
Brandnew: [[[hugs]]] I hope your family situation clears up real soon. It's nice to see you peeking in.
Bobbi: Here is a link to a picture especially for you.
http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/atta...chmentid=17582 You mentioned about going to the gym and not losing pounds, but losing inches. The pic is 5 pounds of fat vs. 5 pounds of muscle. I don't know about you, but I'd sure rather see under my skin looking like the latter, instead of the former.
Iwillbe: Whatcha researching? You know me, inquiring minds want to know!
Lilion: Tell ya what, will you join me in making a new rule? Starting tomorrow, I vow to drink my 6 glasses of water BEFORE touching anything else to drink. Wanna join me? * When do you leave for Vegas? This weekend?
Esmaraude: Welcome back, I've really missed you. Thanks for posting the recipe. I read through the ingredients and the burritos sound delicious. I'm used to using the Morning Star Crumbles instead of ground beef so these will fit right in. A couple of the girls were talking this past week about putting together a healthy taco salad and that mixture sounds like it would fit the bill for that too. Thanks again.
Scooter: Thanks for posting the pics. You do have beautiful, long hair. That bike looks great. I'm glad you like it.
Theotherjen: It takes a long time to grow hair that long, doesn't it? I have to say that your hairstyle really looks good on you too though. The pics you posted were very nice.
Arcayne: Consider yourself signed up for that 2x2. We never turn down pounds lost towards our goal.
Huggy: Nice to see you. We all have THOSE days, and weeks sometimes. Just pick up the boot straps and get back on the wagon. Being successful means starting over....again....and again.....and again. [[[hugs]]]
2cute: Did you get your sale stuff ready for this weekend? If you're anything like me you'll have made a bigger mess than you started with. I always start and then get too pooped to get it finished.
Tina: How is your FIL? I hope he's doing better. You had a Dr. appointment too, didn't you? * Sorry Tony didn't win Sunday! I think you said you were going to Bristol. I looked for you, but no luck.
If there's anyone else out there lurking, please stop in and say "hi".
Joyce, you haven't been around in awhile. Do you still have your granddaughter staying with you? I think you're supposed to be going to California this month, aren't you? When do you leave?
CD: where have you gone off to, girl? Have you been able to keep up with your online classes. The semester should be nearly over, isn't it? Hope you're doing well and will stop in.
There's a whole bunch more that I would like to address, but Honey is on his way home and I'm headed out to get healthy Subway for dinner tonight. Tuesdays are Two for Tuesdays at our local Subway so I can get out of cooking......again.
See you all later. Love
ya bunches.
Saying hello
Good morning!
