Hey Ladies!
I’m embarrassed, I posted into the wrong forum LOL! I saw weekend chat but I clicked on Lynnie’s Birthday Thread… I feel so embarrassed! This is what I posted yesterday…

I just want all you ladies to know... today I thought about you. I did some reflecting on my life in the past year. LOL only because I started class on Thursday and I feel the stress building up already LOL.
I listed all the good things in my life to keep myself happy and to keep from falling into a stress slump. You guys were on my list. All the warm and wonderfully supportive friends I have met here have really kept me on some high points.
As I've mentioned before... my depression gets really bad... but for the past year I don't think I have had any spells that have really hit rock bottom. I've had my ups and downs, but I've really been able to control a lot of my negative thoughts. Of the negative thoughts are still there, but I am honestly shocked at the fact that I haven't had a major depression spell in a long time.
I was sharing these thoughts with a friend when I told her about this group.
I just wanted to come in and share one of my happy thoughts for the day!

Liz – Let me know how DD likes the DDR game
Mines addicted to it. If she’s not playing it at home, she’s playing it at the bowling alley before and after league heheheh! Speaking of hair cuts…. WHEW! I cut off almost 10 inches of my hair on Sunday.
I really miss it! But my head feels so much lighter… I think I lost 10lbs too LOL! No Just kidding!
Cathy – Yes DDR stands for Dance Dance Revolution hehehe… it’s a great game for the kids and it even has a work out mode
but woosh, even on the beginner mode I’m working up a sweat. You have these dance pads, that have the four corners and the up/down and left/right markers. You watch the screen and you tap the correct marker with the correct matching arrow on the screen. It’s basically like dancing. You have to move your foot in a particular pattern and ta-dah you are dancing to the music on the tv. It’s great… a fun game, got the competition going and you get a work out all at one time. I’ll miss you during your 8 days! Hoping all goes well!
I’ve only started class on Thursday, and I’m already feeling the pressure… GOODNESS! I think my summer vacation was a bad idea. I am really having a hard time finding the motivation to get back into doing homework and writing papers and blah blah blah
If I can’t find even an itty bitty amount of motivation, I think I might be in trouble this quarter! I think because I’m taking four classes, I’m working myself up just thinking about all the work that’s going to need to be done. Most of the classes are like Teacher Prep classes where you have to work out lesson plans, do presentations, and we even have to make time to take ourselves on an independent field trip to a school and a museum.
I wanted to share a funny quote I read in an email sent to me by a friend. The person is unknown, but the quote is:
“Inside me lives a skinny woman crying to get out. But I can usually shut her up with cookies – Unknown”
I found it funny at first, then I started thinking about myself and what I’ve done to keep my so called “skinny woman” from doing.
Just another something I’d like to share.
I’m going to try to figure out my webpage problem to so I can post the pictures we took last Wednesday.
Take care everyone!
