well finally!!!.....
 

Gosh...WHAT WAS GOING ON HERE??? I was also locked out and the 3fc site was coming up e-phase/no such page. Beats the heck out of me!!! I tried for a couple of days and then tried again today and voila....here I am. Not sure what I missed except that....STARPRINCESS....YOU LOOK MAHHHVELOUS!!!! what a great avitar. dh did do a great job (I'm going to have to get me one of those tiara's!!!) Is that your natural haircolour? (personal question I know....hehe) Because, I swear....you and me could be sisters!!! Any relations up in Gods country Northern Ontario Canada?? lol

I've been snacking abit today on stuff I know I shouldn't so not sure what tommorow's weigh in will bring. If nothing lost, then I know I have to buckle down some more and focus on strict Atkins. Yesterday I bought some of the Hood brand low carb milk called Carb Countdown. 8oz = 3 carbs. It is pretty good. Has a little aftertaste, but since I LOVE COLD MILK.....this is a good compromise. LOVE MILK!!! Anyway, I got a carton with a Feb 10 expiry date so a glass every few days isn't going to kill me. Good to have the boys back in school and all the decorations away....life is getting back to normal (well near normal). Hope everyone is good.

HAPPY ELVIS' BDAY TO ALL!!!! oh...have to tell you this funny story. My son was about 5 at the time and at Kindergarten. We lived beside a real Elvis fan at the time and he would talk in "elvis'sms" all the time. I mean all the time....he would impersonate his voice....quote songs......pictures all over his house....a clock that had Elvis's hips swing back and forth..etc. Anyway at school one day the teacher asked him if he wanted something and when he said thankyou....he said in a much lowered voice....thank you thankyou very much EL. V. !!! well it cracked me up sooo much I was laughing so hard. I guess you had to be there LOL

AE:
I used to have a little quaker parrot that when you handed him something he would do the Elvis " Thank you Thankyou very much!!" It was so funny!

It's too late at night already....
I was just thinking

I didn't know the Quakers had parrots!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

:lol: you guys are too funny!

Angel-eyes - I have no idea what my natural hair color is. I'm what they call "Chemically dependent" ;) I know it's some sort of blonde - or at least it was in high school. I tend to make it darker in the winter and then really blonde it up in the summer.

I used to go red or auburn on occasion but it was so difficult to get back to blonde that dh made me swear that from now on if I want to be a redhead, to let him know and he'll buy me a wig! :lol:

HEY!

I finally was able to get in!! :) I miss the upgraded forum!! :(

anyway... I am exhausted..3 nights of no sleep. Cassie is better today.. but for a child who is always in motion, it is hard to take her clinging to me, crying that her throat hurts and that she doesnt want anything but mommy! Thank God For Tylenol with Codine! LOL! At least she gets a nap in once in a while. Of course I have to lay with her.

I dont have much else to say... eating ok.. nothing Non-Atkins.. but I am not wtching my intake at all so chances are I am eating either too low in calories or too high in carbs... coffee is what is getting me through the day right now.. I eat only when I have a free hand!

Give me a few more days and I will check in again.. I am waiting now for the scabs to come off... according to the doctor that is worse than the surgery was.. UGH!!!!

Anyway.. thats that for now!!

Gotta be quick.....but:

Star: Never saw a head shot of you before, but.....DAMN GIRL! You just go out there and strut your stuff because you are absolutely beautiful! I am definitely not letting my hubby look over my shoulder when I'm reading your posts. i see you're in the 140's. Yahoooooooooo!!!!!! You are not formally my inspiration. :yes:

Karen: So very glad and relieved to hear that dh is doing well. It's a tough time, the first few days but it does get better and you'll be so very glad not to be running to the ENT every few months.

To everyone else....I'll catch up later, but here's hoping everyone is ducky and loving life!

You guys do realize that I am to young to be kissing Elvis ?? thats actually an Elvis impersonator ROFLMFAO !! :love:

Star is that really you ??? Your such a pretty lady :D

Off surfing, bbt

Hugs, Leenie

LOST AND FOUND.....AGAIN
 

Also had trouble finding you guys, but looks like we are back together again at last!

Karen - glad to see you are okay and surviving - poor thing will definitely want her Mommy around - poor Mommy - try and get some rest when you can.

Star - GORGEOUS....that tiara really suits you....perhaps a visit to the Queen is in order?

Icequeens - hope you are okay despite lack of heat and power! We are FREEZING HERE at around -34 celsius...which is about...let me figger this out....-34 degrees fahrenheit - can we say frostbite? I heard on the radio this am that exposed skin will start to freeze in about 8-10 mins in this weather! OUCH!

Oh Leens- we all that that was the REAL THING - what a hoot!

Jamie - your lunch out sounded great - you did good girl!

I am exhausted and barely slept again last night - I think that coffee I have in the tin in the pantry may not be (GASP) decaf....this would explain my restlessness for most of the night.

Now for my confession I ATE A WHOLE CHOCOLATE BAR - yes a real live milk chocolate bar (Aero to be exact)...can you believe it? I have not had a chocolate bar in over six months! But the cravings were killing me.....I have never actually gotten my period...just PMS symptoms...in fact I'm supposed to start next cycle of bc pills tomorrow??? What's up with that? I'd much rather get my period and get back in control...this sucks big time!

I will be stuck at this weight forever - hovering....hovering.....I am finding it hard to stay on plan especially when I get home in the evenings....how depressing!

Work is busy as I try and wrap things up...next week is my last week at Agriculture as I move to Health Canada on the 19th. Gang is taking me out for lunch next Thursday - I get to choose....and will make sure there are low carb choices!

Tomorrow night we are GOING OUT - very excited, with my best girlfriend and her hubby - first dinner then to the Rainbow Bistro to see our (new) favorite band, the Crowd...they have not heard them yet but we know they will love them too (blues, motown, some jazzy stuff too!). We are heading downtown to what is called The Market...which is about six block x six block area made up of very chic boutiques, trendy restuarants, bars, clubs,, etc. Very touristy in summertime, but lots of fun (if you can find parking that is). On weekends in summer there is actually a fresh air market with wonderful fresh fruits and veggies brought in my local farmers.

Will have to try and park close to restaurant and club tho as it is supposed to be as cold tomorrow night - at least my van started this morning, but took the whole drive in to work to actually warm up!

My eyes are tired and I need my beauty sleep!

Glad we are all okay!

Froufy :)

You gals are too sweet! But thank you - I really appreciate it :)

Karen - Glad dd is doing well! Yeah, the scabs are yucky. But it will all be worth it!

I think I'm sick! This morning my throat was bothering me a little. Not hurting, just not right. Now it's almost 6 at night and my head and neck hurt and I'm just dragging! I'm loading up on zinc and eccinechea (sp?) and drinking lots of water and hot tea so here's hoping I'll kick it's butt before it kicks mine!

I just hate when these things sneak up on me. I'll feel fantastic and the WHAM!!! I'm sick. Grrrrrrrrr.........

Well, I'm super late today! When I work at the company and not at school, I can't sneak in as easily! :)

Star - you are lovely!! I've never had my hair dyed, only highlights once in my life, but a pal of mine has been through every colour of the rainbow, and I mean every colour!

Karen - glad you popped in to let us know that you and your dd were okay!

Froufy, my toes are so cold right now. Hey, I think I've actually been to AgCanada. I was in Ottawa once and it just so happened that I was doing a project on an agricultural topic at the time so I decided to walk right in and see what I could find! :) (I do my project work at CSA, so I guess we're federal buddies!)

I got kissed by Elvis once, well an impersonator. It was on a cruise ship, I was in high school and I was sitting on the edge of a row near the front by the stage (something that I *don't* do anymore during interactive shows - I don't want to be picked!) and Elvis saunters down with his scarf, and me, being all shy tries to avoid eye contact to avoid being the center of attention, but he comes over, puts his scarf around my neck and kisses me on the cheek! I totally forgot about this until reading all your Elvis posts today.

Hope everyone has a fantabulous, warm night!
