Chick Chat -- March 31st - April 6th
Hi Chicks. Starting a new thread.........Wow can't believe tomorrow (Tuesday) is April, already!!! Beware of April Fools!!! lol.
Mornin' all. :coffee: Yippee another Monday! lol. I put in my request for my 1/2 floating holiday night off. But I guess I either put in the wrong dates or my boss is an idiot, either one could be true, so will just have to see once I go into tonight. lol. I put in for either next Wed. or the Wed. after, whichever one works better, doesn't matter much to me. :shrug: DH is in desperate need of some new jeans, he only has ONE pair now. So yup that means I have to do laundry more often and we all know that is no fun, right? lol. I received my new pants. One pair I like, the rest that I received (one is on back order) I don't really like, on me anyways. Trying to see if its worthwhile to send them back or not. I got all the pants on clearance. They say they take the price of shipping off on the credit or refund? I guess that means I get it back, right? I dunno. One pair is just ugh. I dunno doesn't look right on me at all. I look like a seal that is pregnant and about to pop! :lol3: The other pair I do not like look like I could fit another one of me in them!!! :lol: So I dunno I hate returning things through the mail but I do want pants that look right too. So I dunno. Maybe I will return the ones I do not like for a refund and try to find something at the outlet mall so I can try them on!!! lol. Sound like a good plan??? lol. So I wonder if I can call them and have them not send me the ones that are on back order, as they are the same as the ones that make me look like a pregnant seal. lol. Well I can honestly say I haven't done much at all, since the cleaning is all done, but now there is dishes to do again and I honestly do not feel like doing them. :p lol. Lazy, huh? lol. I talked to my mother Saturday night. She met a new guy, who lives in my area. He works for Kelloggs. He has 4 kids, 3 boys and a girl, but they are all older and married, like me. She says he is really nice. So we'll see.........Once again she is talking about moving up here, and now that she has a man that lives in my area, its probably a lot more likely, if it works out. Not trying to be negative, just trying to be realistic. She's gone through a few men now. I wish she would meet them the old fashioned way instead of on the net, not that there is anything wrong with that, I just think its hard to really "know" someone via the net, but I know there are lots of people out there who have met on the net and it turned out wonderful, so lets hope this works out for her. :) Well my dept. is still upstairs. The girl who works my shift when I am off worked in the same cube I did upstairs so she only had to take her tower and her phone headset upstairs, instead of everything. So guess that is where I will be this week. Who knows when they will get it fixed. The way our co. is it could be a year later!!! I hope not, but I doubt it will be anytime soon. Luckily the ladies cube who we are using is on maternity leave and as far as I know she hasn't even had her baby yet, so it should be awhile yet. She had to be on bed rest due to complications, so that is why she's been out already. Anywho......I just do not wanna go into work tonight........I guess its the case of the "Monday's" lol. I will be just fine once I get there and get all set up and ready to work.........Just getting there is the hard part. lol. We watched "I am Legend" with Will Smith, it was pretty good, not one of his "best" movies in my opinion, but pretty good. Weather wise it is supposed to be warm all week, so we shall see........I am tired of the cold and hot thing. lol. Big :grouphug: to all of those struggling...........Thinkin about you. :) Well take care everybody, I hope you have a Great Week! :hug: |
Good Morning,
Sassy girl, thanks for starting the weekly. I'm at work and :drill: is here so I can't stay. I just wanted to pop in and say hello :hug: Love you all, Leenie . |
Hi chickie!
Sassy - good to hear from you. I'd definately call the company and ask them to cancel the ones on backorder! Hopefully they will. The others I'd return, even if you get a little less back because of shipping, its still better to the money than pants made for a preggo seal! Lol! I have actually started trolling ebay for stuff that I know will fit, like brands I already own, etc. So far I've found a couple good deals that keep me in dress code while I lose the weight. Leenie - :hug: happy Monday! So I am in my last day in FL, and my friend just called to say its snowing at home again. Bugger. Oh well. I am really bored at this meeting. So bored, in fact, that I can't come up with anything interesting to say, so I guess I'll go to another session and be bored there. :grouphug: all! |
hey gang :wave:
I have missed you wonderful people ;) We got back last night from Keystone, Colorado with the 12th graders! We had a great time and everything went great! The kids were absolutely great! and the snow was great! and tubing in the snow, and watching the snow fall (that i've never really seen before except for a few Louisiana flurries which is nothing like the real thing) and snowball fights and Bible studies and hanging out and it was all fun fun fun - EXCEPT for the 25 hours in a people mover (small church bus). sitting and riding for that long is NOT something I ever care to do again, but everything else was great! My desk is a total wreck so I'm just popping in to let y'all know that I'm back home. I'll get back in here when I can. Hope everybody had a great week and is doing well. hugs & blessings, Cathy |
Hello everyone! Things are looking up around here, though I can still feel the darkness weighing on me.
Sassy, I know a lot of people I originally met online and I count them among some of my dearest friends. My boyfriend I didn't meet online, but we met in Australia and spent one day together and then didn't see each other again for a year and a half, and we communicated online and over the phone and through lengthy letters, and it very much kindled a romance where we started out as friends. Now we spend all my breaks together and I'll be moving down to Boston next year so I can live near him and be wooed properly. ;) Anyway, I guess I'm saying that while of course it's better if we can meet people in person, the internet is still a great way to add to your social network, and if romance blossoms, who are we to criticize it? |
Hi Chicks.
Hi Ladies.
I am wearing the new pair of pants that I like today......+ my new shirt I bought a week or so again + my new shoes. :p Dunno why I bother I work all alone now, who cares what I look like? lol. :p So yup I am still upstairs, we do not know for how long, it is a pain though because me and the girl who works opposite nights I do share a desk now, so we have to hook up our computers at the beginning of the week and then unhook them when we are done at the end of the week. I will call and try to stop them sending my other pants and I will send back the others as soon as I have time to drop them off, getting to anywhere in my town right now is a complete nightmare!! They have so many roads closed it is simply ridculous. Even the School Buses have to detour. They surely did not plan this out when they did it, that is for sure. :dizzy: Amarie -- what a bummer having to go from Florida to snow. ugh. hopefully it will warm up soon. :) Cathy -- Glad you had a good time! Emmy: I was not criticizing it, sorry if it came across that way. I have met wonderful people online and friends of ours did too and now are married, and the wife is from Romania, so yes I know it does work. Its just my mom has went through a few men now and that is why I said I wish she would meet someone the old fashioned way. I just want her to be happy is all. I guess I am a worrier. But I know it can happen that way in person too. I just wish her the best is all. Kinda was "talking out loud" I guess. Anywho, :congrat: to you and your boyfriend, that is wonderful. :) Well have a Great Night!!! :hug: |
Just stopping by real quick. We just got back from Walmart. I'm so proud of myself. I bought TONS of fruits and veggies (as well as other stuff,lol). I also bought one of Jillian's dvds and a Mini Stepper. I'm soooooooooooo excited to try it out tomorrow!! I can use my mini stepper and watch TV at the same time!! LoL!! OKay well..I'm gonna go to bed now. Its gonna be 2am in a few mins. Nighty nite!! And Happy April Fool's!!! :p
Oh ya!!! When we were in the check out line..I was looking at the gums and telling Fonzo how they should make some chocolate flavored gum..and whatcha know!! I see Chocomint gum!!!!!!!!! I havent tried it yet, but I was happy to find it, lol. |
Morning!
Francie girl, I was gonna say what ARE you doing up at 2am?!? But then I see you were shopping, and what with your username and all, I guess that 'splains it! :rofl: I'm proud of you for applying your shopping addiction on fruit and veggies! :bravo: :yay: WTG! So I'm getting my morning workout in in a new way - last night when I sceduled my taxi I totally misread my flight departure time, so I got to the airport, I had only 45 min to get checked in and through security!! Eek! So, I think I got my heartrate well into cardio range!!!! Anyway, I walked up to the gate (with my shoes still untied) and right onto the plane. The worst part is that I left my toiletries bag, with all my pretty face creams at the hotel :( so now I have to pay them to send to me. Oh, the price of vanity! Sassy - I think the most important person for you to dress nice for is you! Gotta go! Plane time! |
Good Morning :coffee:
Welcome home Cathy :hug: :wave: to everyone...can't play :( Catch you soon. Leenie |
Hi Everyone!
I'm new to this forum and just thought I'd work my way through all of the messages. Well, okay, not all ... but some :carrot: I'll have to work my way into some of the conversations considering I don't know any of you yet. Eventually you'll say "Geez, Karen, do you ever stop talking?:dizzy: I work at home, so I don't have to worry about the boss peering over my shoulder. I have one teenager (17) left at home until he goes off to college in August. My husband works days and has quite a commute, so I'm here by my lonesome all day. I work when there is work to be done, I clean house and am pretty much a computer geek! Anyway, that's me .. Hope to get to know you all very soon! Best to all! KarenGinNJ 302/290.5/175 |
Welcome to the chat, Karen!
I'm going to meet with my pastor in a few minutes to talk about some of the stuff that's been making my depression worse, so yay. Hopefully it will help. I can't afford to be down much longer (or rather, my waistline can't!). |
Welcome Karen!!! :wave:
Amarie~we got paid last night, but didnt leave until 11pm..and we just took forever, lol. It was one of those Walmart SuperCenters, lol. Plus, we had to wait for Sweeney Todd to come out..so thats another reason why we were there so long, lol. But yes, I'm finally putting my shopping addiction to good use. I'm so exicted to work out today I could hardly sleep last night, lol. Leenie, Sassy, Cathy~:wave: How ya'll doing? Emmy~I hope talking with your pastor helps. :hug: |
:welcome: Karen! Nice to meet you, I look forward to getting to know you on here!
Hi all! I'm just popping in again before they close this plqane's boarding door. Woo, stressful day, my last flight was late, so I had to run for this one too! But.... I'm going home!!! :yay: I love home, and its even clean 'cause I cleaned for the dog-sitter. :lol: Ooohh, and I get to hug my puppies, which is almost as good as prozac :D. Emmy, I hope your pastor can help you sort through stuff. I started counseling last week, and once again I'm kicking myself for not having gone earlier. Let us know how it goes. :hug: Cathy - welcome back! I'm glad you had a good time, but the people mover sounds retched! I may not like to fly, but I HATE to ride in buses. Leenie - did you hear that? My house got clean! Haha I give it 3 day with my dogs :( Heather, Buddly, Hope, Jerzy, and everyone else - :grouphug: love ya and am thinkin of ya! |
Have a safe flight!!

Hey all...
I have had a great week so far, considering the weekend. I spent Sunday at my dad's going over budget stuff. I recently left my job as a nanny to become a Montessori teacher and it was quite a paycut. It's really put me in the red and I had no idea how to manage my money. It was really contributing to my depression and stopping me from working on weight loss. My dad and I have a weird relationship: he recently left my mom and then my mom moved near me, so it's just caused me a lot of anger and confusion. But I used him for his strengths and money help. It was such a load off because I was bearing the brunt all by myself and really saw no light at the end of the tunnel. He ended up making me feel really hopeful and calm. Normally meetings with my dad make me feel depressed, but I made it through this one. And now that I am not keeping the secret of my money troubles and actually doing something about it, the daily "black cloud" has thinned! And last night I was really tempted to order a pizza around 9 p.m., but came on to this site and read threads until it was too late to order pizza anymore. Hooray for 3 Fat Chicks! |
Hi all,
Can't stay long. I need to get ready to go to pool tonight. No official word on the job yet but I spoke to my friend and she said she liked me the best of all the people she had interviewed. :yay: She also said that she thinks I could fill in for her soon if she needs someone, and she's the head of the department. Sounds very promising. I'm hoping to hear in the next day or two. I went to the dr today and had my cholesterol checked. I'm interested to see if it's high. I've been eating very poorly the last 2 or 3 weeks. :( Help! I have worked out some, which is odd, but the food... :welcome2: Karen! Amarie: I bet you are glad to be home! You've been traveling a lot. Emmy: Good for you being so proactive. Let us know how it goes. Jerzy: I've been going over budgets too and trying to guess what my potential new salary will be. It takes off so much stress when you can get a handle on $$. Sassy: new clothes always make you feel better, even if nobody sees them. Heather: :hug: Still thinking about you and sending you good vibes! :wave: Leenie, Buddly, Cathy (welcome back), and everybody else! |
Hello! *waves* I don't have time to reply to everyone, but I read all your responses, I promise!
Talking with my pastor was really nice. She suffers from SAD, and so her parlor is really well-lit, with huge windows and white lacy curtains that don't block the sun. She plied me with tea and cookies and we just talked for a good hour, and it was really good. She's a really amazing woman and I just feel so safe in her presence, it allowed me to truly relax for the first time in awhile. Now I'm going to go swimming, because I think if I increase my activity level that will help drive out the depression (along with helping me on my weight loss journey . . .). Thanks for the encouragement, ladies. It helps. |
Ughhhhhhhhh I tried out my mini stepper today and it totally kicked my butt. I was tired after 1 min..but I pushed myself to do 5 mins. I'm gonna do more after a little break. I'm doing pretty good on my calories so far too. Fitday is really helping out a lot!!
|
Yay for 5 minutes! Just that will get your endorphins going.

Hi Girls.
Boy when I woke up tonight I felt like crapola. I woke up earlier in the day sick. I took some meds and went back to bed. I forced myself to go to work though since our one co-worker I figured would be out because his dad died last week and he did call in, I took the call, poor guy sounded so sad. :( He couldn't even talk........I feel for him. I remember when my dad died, it was heart-wrenching. Not only the death, but watching my mother go through it too. Anywho. I had the strangest dream!!! I was a witch, but I looked like the exorcist chick -- scary! And I would jump into people's cars and make them crash, then take over their bodies! Totally freaky!!! Anybody dare to interpret that dream? lol. I only ate a little something today, as I felt crappy, but I am feeling much better now. :yes: I am mostly just so thristy!!! I think I am partly dehydrated or something. We got our monthly "newsletter" from our owner of our complex. I don't know if its just how she writes the thing or what, but it always just irritates me! lol. She has a way of saying stuff about people without actually mentioning their names, but you know who she is talking about, just drives me insane! Why not just come out and tell that person what they are doing wrong instead of making it public for everyone to see? And the person who is actually "doing" whatever it is probably doesn't even know that she is talking about "Them". UGH. Just seems so "highschoolish" to me. I can't stand people who "beat around the bush" just tell me already! lol. But I guess she thinks she is being "polite" or whatever. Who knows what that lady thinks. lol. OH! lastnight I found a nice condo for rent, close to the in-laws and our friends. DH is gonna call about it tomorrow. Lets all keep our :crossed: that we can get out of our apt. once and for all!!! :D Then talk about happy, man oh man I think I will have to have a party for that one! lol. You all wanna come? lol. I will come back later and do Indivduals..... Take Care All, :hug: |
Jerzy~I did 10 mins after that 5..and man, I'm sooooooooooooo tired right now. LoL!! I only did the 10 mins on accident cuz I got all caught up on the movie I was watching, lol.
Sassy~Okay..that dream is creepy!! LOL!!! I have no clue what it means, sorry. OMG!! I hate getting those stupid newsletters!!!! I dread getting them. Like every section on base gets their own special newsletter. Talk about a waste of paper, lol. Anyways...I'm gonna go eat dinner and wait for my shows to come on. |
Franicie -- Yeah tell me about it. I woke up like, "Wow was that a dream or was I watching a movie?" lol. Maybe I should email Steven Speilburg, he might be interested! lol!!! Then you all could say, "hey I know that chick that the movie is based on!" lol.....Yeah every month there is always something in there that just irritates me. That woman acts like she is a teenager. lol. I think she enjoys it. lol.
|
Hi
Can't stay now. I have a second interview today at 3pm with the head honcho and 2 other people. What is this, the Spanish Inquisition? :lol: Wish me luck!! BBL |
Sassy~LOL!! Maybe Tom Hanks will star in the movie!!! But who would play you??? Some people just cant let go of their teenage years. She could've peaked in high school and been stuck there ever since. LOL!! My mom's 56 year old cousin dresses like she's 16. Its NASTY!!!!!
Omg..I did this workout dvd today...'Jillian Michaels 30 day shred' and ughhhh my legs are all wobbly right now, lol. If I'm ever on TBL, I wanna be on her team!!! LoL!! My damn weight keeps bouncing around. I dont get it. I'm never gonna lose the 5 pounds. :mad: I keep working out and I'm eating right and I either go up a pound or go down a pound. I dont get what I'm doing wrong. I'm so frustrated. |
hey ladies, just popping in and trying to get the energy to DO something besides sit around and feel "blah".
cheers to you all! |
Hi all!
Iris - ((((energy)))) There! I've sent you a wave of it! Hope it helps. :hug: Sassy - OK, I don't want to go all psychobabble, but that one to me sounds like a dream about trying to be someone you're not and live someone else's life. But then I could squeeze meaning out of a car alarm if I tried hard enough! Lol! I think it must have been a VERY wierd dream. Francie - :bravo: seriously? 10 min? What movie were you watching? I used to try to ride my bike on my indoor trainer while watching movies, but I never found anything so interesting that I lost track of time and kept pedaling! You rock. Hope - Woot! Yay, call-back! I think this means they like you. I hope you like them too! I will keep my fingers crossed for you. Jerzy - I here you on budget woes. :hug: we can do it! Well, today was my first day back in the strange semi-normalcy that is my life. I got up, went to work, rode bike to class, came back to work, actually got things accomplished. Whoa. You know, I kinda like my life... that is such a rare feeling for me. Don't get me wrong, I don't like my job (really, who does), but on a whole I have it pretty good. Dang this prozac stuff must be working! The problem is, now that I finally appreciate what I have, its going to be harder to leave it all to go back to school. I'll be going from having my own house and a job that pays in the top 2/3 of my region's income range, to going back to school full time and living off the about $11K a year that I'll be able to scrape together as a TA. But then again, this is the best chance I can think of to set myself up for long-tern non-prozac dependent happiness. Aughghghgh! OK, thanks for letting me vent. :grouphug: everyone! |
Amarie~I was watching a movie on Lifetime, LOL!! I like to workout during those afternoon movies, lol.
My thighs are killing me right now. That dvd totally kicked my butt for sure!! Jillian is evil, but I love her!! LoL!! And not only that, but we walked around the mall twice (I find walking in the mall is much more motivating than walking around the neighborhood, lol. And I got to buy things!!). And then we walked around Target. I did get to buy 2 more workout dvds, and TBL Success Secrets book!! YAY!! For my reward for doing so much stuff today..Dh is taking me to go see Stop Loss. So yay!! LoL!! |
Hi Chicks.
Hi Chicks.
Well you will never beleive it. Yup I moved again (at work) ..........Only this time my stuff was moved for me! Which is unusual since they usually only do that if you get fired!! :fr: But alas I was not fired.......I am still here. Downstairs, with all the others, so we are all "together" again. lol. Sounds like Humpty Dumpty, doesn't it? lol. My Boss approved my time off for next week, so I get to leave early next Wed. so then DH & I can hopefully go to the Outlet Mall on the Thursday after. I put the part about my dream in a different color so if your interested, you can read, but if you are not, then you can skip it. :) About the dream -- that very well could be, Amarie, but for the 1st time ever I feel like I am really "living" my life for me. So I dunno. I looked up some things in the dream dictionary and it said: Crash -- To dream that you are in a car crash, indicates that your beliefs, lifestyle, or goals are clashing with another's. It may also represent a shocking situation or painful experience. Alternatively, car crashes may forewarn of your dangerous or careless driving habits. Witch To see a witch in your dream, represents evil, destructive, and dangerous feminine forces. It may point to your negative ideas of the feminine and your experiences with heartless women. Alternatively, a witch is symbolic of goodness, power and enchantment. Evil To dream that someone or something is evil, denotes a repressed and/or forbidden aspect of yourself. This part of yourself may be seeking recognition and acknowledgment. Alternatively, evil may also be a reflection of your strong, negative emotions like hate, anger, etc. Murder To dream that you have committed a murder, indicates that you are putting an end to an old habit and your former ways of thinking. This could also mean an end to an addiction. Alternatively, you may have some repressed aggression or rage at yourself or at others. Driving To dream that you are driving a vehicle, signifies your life's journey and your path in life. The dream is telling of how you are moving and navigating through life. If you are driving and cannot see the road ahead of you, then it indicates that you do not know where you are headed in life and what you really want to do with yourself. You are lacking direction and goals. If you are driving on a curvy road, then it indicates that you are have difficulties in achieving your goals and the changes associated with it. To dream that someone else is driving you, represents your dependence on the driver. You are not in control of your life and following the goals of others instead of your own. If you are driving from the passenger side of a car, then it suggests that you are trying to gain control of the path that your life is taking. You are beginning to make your own decisions. Got the above info from: Dream Moods So this is my interpretation from the above: I think it means that I have finally "taken back" my life from that evil part of me that I had towards food. And so by "taking over" the bodies of the people, I am taking back my life? What do you think? Francie -- as for who would play me.......hmmmmmm. Maybe Jennifer Love Hewitt? Maybe she is too "Perky" for me though. lol. I just would not want a wafer thin girl to play me cuz even after I lose my weight, I know I won't be that thin. lol. Trying to think of plus size chicks that aren't old enough to be my mom. lol. I think Roseanne is probably more me, but she is older. lol. Yeah I can see the owner of our complex being a 50 something or however old she is teenager. Cuz that is how she acts. lol. And don't be so hard on yourself missy, you'll lose the 5 pounds and also remember, muscle weighs more than fat does. ;) Well thats about it. :hug: |
Quick check in!
Sassy, I'm going to re-read the dream explanation tomorrow when I'm not so sleepy. :dizzy: I think those are fun to try to figure out. Shop: I did the Jillian Michael's shred video # 1 tonight. :dancer: Well, I did it from my 'ON Demand' cable channel and it was 30 minutes long or a little less with the commercial they throw in. How long is the actual DVD? And yeah, I'm wobbly too!! Does the dvd have part 1 and 2? I haven't done 2 yet. I had done 1 before and was sore for a couple of days. Iris: I did a LOT of sitting around feeling blah last year. I hope you get the energy you need. At least just chat with us. ;) Heather: as always still thinking about you :grouphug: The interview went well again today. They said though that they were talking to a couple of people from 'within', so they may have the advantage. I do think they like me though. I should know within a week. Amarie: I want to be like you and make some decent $$. What is it you do again, if you don't mind me asking? |
y'all. my cats sleep inside almost every night. they go in and out during the day, but sleep inside.
well my cat slipped outside when i was locking up around 10 p.m. and I can't get her to come back. i keep hearing cat fighting. i assume she would have come to my calling, though, if she was unhappy to be outside. i just don't want her to get hurt. vet bills and sick cats are not in the plan this week. |
Hi Everyone!!
Sorry I haven't been around, but now that spring break is over I may get a turn on the computer more often. Had a busy day today as I went with my mum to the hospital and had meetings with her case worker and specialist on how to live with her chronic kidney disease. It was interesting. Then of course we went out for lunch. Gosh it tasted good, but evidently very salty, I wish my water was in an iv!! I can't get enough. Its only the third day back to school for the girls and B stayed home as she had a three day old migraine, poor kid. whoops better go, hubby just got home, wasn't sure if he was going to make it tonight or not. Hopefully I can be on here longer later! Take care everyone, K |
Sassy~WOW!! Your dream meaning is so cool. I gotta start looking up the dreams I remember, lol. Jennifer Love Desperate claims she's a size 2. LoL!! I highly doubt that. For some reason, I can not think of any girls over size 2. Lol!! I'd want America Ferra (Ugly Betty) to play me. Even though we have different skin tones. But we have that whole latina thing going on. I just love her. Real Women Have Curves is one of my fave movies!!
Hope~I'm looking at the dvd right now..and it says that its 20 mins. And it has 3 levels. I'm so sore right now. Going up and down the stairs really did it for me. Dh had to practically carry me in, lol. Jerzy~I hope your kitty comes back :( I have 3 cats, and they're all indoor cats. But one of them is in heat right now. I have a fear that she'll run out when one of us comes through the front door. All I need is a pregnant cat, lol. Although that would be awesome cuz I love kitties and I want another one badly, LOL!! Well..dh & I went to the movies tonight. We went to see Stop Loss. It was very very good!! Some of the stuff really got to me and I cried. :( Military movies always make me think of my dh. I love him so much, I worry about him whenever he's gone. I've been with him for 5 years, married for 3 and known him for 10 years, I dont know what I'd do without him. I hope to God that nothing like that ever happens to him. OKay, I better stop now before I start to cry again... I'm gonna go lay down and read until I fall asleep. Nighty nite. |
Good morning girls - nothing to say, but I am still lurking.
Hang in there all :grouphug: Heather |
Hi ladies!
Hope: - I want that for you too! But I'd rather you have the $$ without the cost to your emotional and physcial health that I've had to pay. I work in financial services compliance, its a very male dominated, bullying atmosphere. :( Of course, I want a dear sweet DF who loves me like you have ;) Sassy - WOW! That dream explanation is so cool!! I am so running onto that site today to see what my dream last night meant. In my dream last night I tried to get someone fired, made them cry, then found out afterward that they really weren't as bad as I thought, even though they weren't good at their job. In the dream I had keys to get in everywhere, and I was doing all of this with another person I never saw. It was VERY wierd. Anyway! Fingers crossed for the condo! I so would come to your housewarming, but I think it'll only happen in spirit. Heather - :hug: Hi lurky-girl! Stay well! Buddly - I hope the docs gave you and your mom some good info. I'm all about education when it comes to medical stuff. I like reducing my uncertainty. Francie - Haha. I love lifetime, or at least I did when I used to pay for cable :( Now I just watch LOTS of PBS. I think if anyone were to play me in a movie I would want it to be Toni Collete cause she's gorgeous in a real-person way, or maybe Kate Winslet - again, she always seems more like a human being to me. And they are both absolutley fierce actresses! Haha, maybe they could make my life seem interesting.... Jerzy - :hug: Hi sweetie, I hope you're cat made it home ok! Keep us posted? Leenie - Hi! Whats new with you today? Anyway, not much goin on for me. I'm going to my counselor today. Should be interesting to see what stuff I drag out of my psyche this time. |
Amarie~I love Toni Collete & Kate Winselt!! They are both really good actresses!! God, I just love Kate Winselt's movies. I cannot wait for the one with her & Leo to come out. (that little Titanic freak in me still lives, lol)
Nothing much is going on today. I'm sore all over so I'm just trying to take it easy. |
:wave: Hi Ladies
Will catch up soon. You are all in my prayers :hug: Leenie . |
thanks everyone. The cat made it home this morning. Ruffled, but no noticeable injuries. Maybe she won!
|
Jerzy: Yea! :carrot: So glad the cat is safe. I have a neighborhood kitty that I have 'adopted' or he adopted us I should say. He sleeps with us every night now and goes out during the day. If he stays gone too long I freak out.
Amarie: How funny! The job I quit last year was a sales job in financial services. I know what you mean about male domination. Try to call yourself a financial planner as a 5' 1" overweight female and see how much respect you get. The stress of building the practice, finding and then dealing with clients, meeting the compliance standards, and getting contracts approved almost put me WAY over the edge. How on earth did you get involved in the compliance side? I know you can make good $$, but I felt sorry for our compliance guy b/c he got treated like crap for just trying to do his job. How was the counselor? Mine got a workout from me when I had that job! :dizzy: What are you studying to become? Buddly: Is your mom still working at A&W or is she not able to anymore? Living with a chronic disease is hard. :hug: to you both. Shop: I may try the Shred workout #2 tomorrow. I had to mow our yard today before the 3 day rain :rain: we are getting now so I haven't done an official workout. I want to see Stop Loss. I'm glad you gave it a good review. Hi Leenie :D See you on the weekend. Cathy: You still walking away the pounds? |
thanks for the words of encouragement yesterday! i DID get up and go to the gym (what a freakin' struggle, though) which made me feel a little better. then after my shower i actually did my hair AND makeup, which i haven't done in ages. so i felt kinda pretty. =)
i hope you all feel pretty like i did! |
Hello everyone. I feel really guilty about the last two days even though I hardly went over my calorie count yesterday and today I still ate much less than I used to before I was dieting. I feel like I indulged myself too much and I need to snap out of the indulgent mindset, you know? I was down to 192 yesterday morning, which was AWESOME, but I couldn't bear to weight myself today because I was just awful. :(
Things continue to be crazy around here. All but one of the girls on my dormitory wing is suffering from some kind of mental illness or nervous breakdown, and it's just plain awful. Sometimes I feel like we're running a psych ward here instead of a school for the gifted! Anyway. Just two weeks before I see my Jeffry again and take him home to meet my parents. Yikes! I'm so excited for that. I hope they love him, because I have the feeling he's going to be around for a long time. :-D Hang in there, everyone. May you all lead lives that are much less interesting and frantic than mine! |
