|
Oh Wow! Angel you've done it again..........
Well done, yet another new thread.....You are getting pretty good at this. Well everybody "'ow r ya?" This good weather we waited so long for has come at last and wait for it.......its killing me. Firstly I cant sit in the sun cos of my face and the new grafts, secondly I am aching and stiff from head to toe, and thirdly I upgraded my pc last night from ME to windows 2000 and what a nightmare. I am braindead. :?: Its ok now but EVERYTHING had to be reinstalled. My stress levels are on the way down so here I am. :coffee: http://muchos.co.uk/members/gillysto...itchTransp.gif
I will be back later I am sure by then I will be mellow, well I hope I will.Hope today is being good for you all..... |
Still going wrong somewhere cos my animated gifs just arnt doing what they should be doing!
|
Hi Iamgonnadoit..... I sent you a pm Sometimes you save images that are for web tv only. If that's the case, they only show the "still" image. I accidently tried that yesterday. I loaded several, then found out they weren't for pc. So, you might check that. Otherwise, you would put them in the same way as the others. Keep trying...you'll do it. |
Hi Girls!! :wave: I'm here. Still trying to get on this morning schedule thing. Little stiff today too so that doesn't help matters any. Probably because I didn't get enough sleep.
Yesterday I went clean happy and cleaned for 5 hours. Then my soul-cousin & his G/F came over and had dinner with us. Then hubby fixed her computer. He is the man everyone calls when their pc's break down. I told him he needs to start a business doing this but I got the funny look. :lol: Today I am going to finish up the wash, put the dishes away, clean my office desk, exercise, go grocery shopping, and start preparing for this weekends tournament. Sounds great huh. Ahhhh the fun of Mondays... :dz: |
noodles my dh is the same what he doesnt know about comps isnt worth knowing but he charges so gets money to buy new bits for his comp PAMELA you might have probs with wndows 2000 its the same as me but more business orientated and doesnt have the programs for graphics and such so that wont help your doodles

OK.....We got a couple of people lost! Gonna post to bump us to the top...maybe they'll see us!! |
Hello everyone. Sorry I got lost on that one. I guess I will have to keep track of new posts. Hope everyone is doing well.
Stirfried......i'm not on a real "diet" but I have cut out dairy due to lactose intolerance and am just trying to make healthier choices when it comes to eating. But since I have been a constant weight for a while and not exercising I think that it will work out ok this way. Obviously if it doesn't I will make more drastic changes (I hope that doesn't happen). But I am starting to lose inches and notice some definition in my arms so something is working. Well hope you are all feeling healthy.....talk to you soon. |
HI! everyone hope tht you all are having a great Tuesday and are motivated a lot more then me especially noodles she can stop at my house any time so have a great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Rita
|
Hi all...hope you are all having a good day. I have been clearing all the clutter out of the attic and I am wasted. :( Why do we accumulate so much junk. I have boxes and boxes of photos (pre digicam days) loads of memory jerkers today. Anyway back on my healthy eating and being pretty rough on myself when it comes to fancying a snack etc. I have to be rigid until I am back in a routine then I can relax a bit and have the odd treat. I only popped on to wish you all well and hope you are all in fine fettle.I have just tried to put in an animation and apparently you have to do 50 posts first so you're going to hear alot more from me.

Lol!!!

Have a good day all... :coffee2: |
Hi all! Thought this might help with losing weight.....
Exercise Program The doctor told me "Physical exercise is good for you." I know that I should do it, but my body is out of shape, so I have worked out this easy daily program I can do anywhere. You can do this, too Monday: Beat around the bush. Jump to conclusions. Climb the walls. Wade through paperwork. Tuesday: Drag my heels. Push my luck. Make mountains out of molehills. Hit the nail on the head. Wednesday: Bend over backwards. Jump on the bandwagon. Balance the books. Run around in circles. Thursday: Toot my own horn. Climb the ladder of success. Pull out the stops. Add fuel to the fire. Friday: Open a can of worms. Put my foot in my mouth Start the ball rolling. Go over the edge. Saturday: Pick up the pieces. Whew! What a workout! You are invited to use my program without charge!! Well, as you can see, this is the exercise program I am using to get in shape for the summer. You might want to take it easy at first, and then do it faster as you become more proficient. It may be too strenuous for some.. ** ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE STARTING ANY EXERCISE PROGRAM.** SCROLL DOWN... NOW SCROLL UP...... Feel the burn? |
Lookie What I Got!!
Well, tonight was our bowling banquet night and...I made off with a few "goodies" that I didn't expect!! :D
Hubby & I both took 1st Place League High Series Handicap--Received a Special Pin & Cash. I didnt think I won because the week before we were done bowling I got bumped back down to 2nd, but apparently I reclaimed my title at the last minute!! Yippee!! :cb: We also took 1st Place in Team High Game Scratch, Team High Game Scratch Series, and Team Champions. We got cash for all of these and special League Champion pins for winning 1st place. I also have the chance to purchase the League Champion Ring. Oooo I'm going too. I won't see another one of these in a longggg time so I might as well soak it up now while I can. I'm going for the gold one you see there in the middle of the pic, but I am going to get my birthstone (sapphire) in the middle. I am trying to figure out the engraving. On 1 side I will have "Angel" & the other side "Noodles", but what to put on the inside?? Never had this kind of decision before..:chin: Maybe I will put I LOVE RATS inside. http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies.../2/happy17.gif I decided to go to Wally World after bowling and spend some of my loot. I have had my other fish tank set up and cycled since Sunday, so it was time to get a fish. Well I wanted a colorful one so I went and browsed the bettas. There was this beautiful blue one that kept swimming right up to me whenever I would walk by so I decided he was the one and took him home with me to his new palace in the water. http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies...2/animal09.gif I also bought some dark chocolate :chockiss:'s. Hey a bag lasts me almost 2 weeks so I deserve a little treat!! :smug: Anyhow, here's a pic of my "loot". Hub ran off with some of the cash so...I only got part of it in there for ya. Time to rob his wallet. <innocent blinking-eyes look here> http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies.../3/happy05.gif http://www.bobplumb.com/modules/PNph...wling_loot.jpg |
Loved the exercise regime Iamgonnadoit!
I started on a new eating plan today. It is called "Living the G.I. Diet" and it is based on the Glycemic Index. South Beach caused a condition of Acidosis and my heart was doing some pretty weird stuff (that is what the Dr. called it). Atkins isn't the best for me, as I am not much of a meat eater, although it sure did help with IBS and some of the FM pain. The G.I. Diet allows 3 meals and 3 snacks, and the best part is, I can still bake, which I truly enjoy doing, and eat it! I made Cranberry Bran Muffins and Apple Pie Cookies and because they have a lot of fiber in them, I am very satisfied with eating one. I can't seem to get any of this weight to move off of me and I would like to lose 30-40 pounds. My short term goal is 10 pounds. I hope everybody is having a good day. |
hi all well done noodles and you deserve that ring so go for it brill regime ima very sore so im off speak later and stay healthy
kirsty |
Just a quick post today. I'm going to take one of my granddaughters for "just a day" for the two of us. I do that with them, when I can. I try to give them individual attention. Especially the three oldest that live close by. They'll be grown & gone before long. Amber is 11...graduated from 6th grade yesterday. Her sisters, Jessica (12) & Tasha (15) will be next. They had school today. We're going to get our nails & hair done, eat lunch & do a little shopping! This is something I've done since they were little. They were so close in age, it was hard for me (with back problems) to handle all three...so one at a time. Then, when they got older, we started days out, instead of at my house playing. My Remicade is starting to wear off. Had a very bad night. I get a treatment next Thursday....I'll just have to hold on until then. I take my Methotrexate shot tonight, so maybe that'll help me. I hope all of you have a good day. I'll try to post more tonight....if not, I'll be back tomorrow. |
Thanks, Linus!!
For the bowling comment. :)
So much for sleep last night... :dz: I've been up since 10:30 am Wed. with a 1 hour nap. I was dead tired by 9 PM but my daughter was up sick so it scared the tired right out of me. The poor kid...:( Tomorrow is her last day of school and she can't go in this shape. She has been throwing up and can hardly stand. Poor thing didn't even make it to the toilet. She got it all over her clothes/hair/etc. Ugh... Hubby, the dea that he is, went out to get her 7-Up at 12 midnight. She couldn't keep it down. I told her if she can't keep any fluids down by morning, she's going in!! I gave her a warm bath and brushed her hair and put the bucket next to her. She's sleeping now so that's a good thing but now *I* can't sleep. So I've just been working on auctions. Slower way to get rid of stuff, but hey I'm still de-cluttering!! ;) If you want to check them out, my seller ID is the same as here: Noodles913. Scratch that..she just got up again...poor kid. I feel helpless as a mother in times like these. :( http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies/love/love62.gif Well, I will miss all of ya!! I'll be scarce then gone completely for 3 days after Friday. Tournament time ya know. Unless the kid doesn't get better. Then the tournament can kiss my :censored:. :lol: I shall return Monday!! Have a good weekend everyone. |
I found you
Hey guys I finally made it. I got lost but I am back now.
2b, Hey how are you? I hope your plan works for you. I have to do more becauce its so hard for me to lose. Hey everyone I am having trouble with my diet. what else is new. I am still cheating. I will go all day and eat right,but then I start craving sugar, I guess I will have to try harder. Been having way to much pain, but I have started to workout again. You know what I want is one of those thigh and bun rollers, they look good, and I bet it really tighens all your muscles and burns fat. I am going to be gone for a while in june. I am going to visit my daughter, the one getting married. I hope I feel good enough to go. How are you guys doing noodles, angel-lover, imagonnadoit ,khewes and anyone I forgot. Ihope you are all well. well gotta go love laura |
Here's a cute joke for all of ya...
The Pope Drives A Limo!! :smug:
The limo driver, after getting all of Pope John Paul's luggage loaded into the limo (and he doesn't travel light), notices that the Pope is still standing on the curb. "Excuse me, Your Eminence," says the driver, "would you please take your seat so we can leave? "Well, to tell you the truth," says the Pope, "they never let me drive at the Vatican, and I'd really like to drive today." "I'm sorry but I cannot let you do that. I'd lose my job! And what if something should happen?," protests the driver, wishing he'd never gone to work that morning. "There might be something extra in it for you," says the Pope. Reluctantly, the driver gets in the back as the Pope climbs in behind the wheel. The driver quickly regrets his decision when, after exiting the airport, the Supreme Pontiff floors it, accelerating the limo to 105 mph. "Please slow down, Your Holiness!!!" pleads the worried driver, but the Pope keeps the pedal to the metal until they hear sirens. "Oh, my God, I'm gonna lose my license," moans the driver. The Pope pulls over and rolls down the window as the cop approaches, but the cop takes one look at him, goes back to his motorcycle, and gets on the radio. "I need to talk to the Chief," he says to the dispatcher. The Chief gets on the radio and the cop tells him that he's stopped a limo going a hundred and five. "So bust him," said the Chief. "I don't think we want to do that, he's really important," said the cop. Then the Chief exclaimed, "All the more reason!" "No, I mean really important," said the cop. The Chief then asked, "Who ya got there, the Mayor?" Cop: "Bigger." Chief: "Governor?" Cop: "Bigger." "Well," said the Chief, "who else could it be, the Pope?" Cop: "I think it's God!" Chief: "What makes you think it's God?" Cop: "He's got the Pope for a limo driver!! :lol3: |
:lol: :lol:
Noodles - good luck in your bowling tournament. Enjoy yourself. |
:thanks: Happy!! It's a jump rope tournament but thank you for thinking of me regardless. :D

NOODLES Have a great weekend!! Really enjoyed the joke! :lol: HAPPY CANUK How are you, these days? Hope everything is going well for you. Tell Joanne to drop in & say hello once in awhile. I'm still sooo jealous of her beach. ;) Do you still make those beautiful graphics? I do so wish I could afford to do it. Maybe I can in the future. I miss our other thread we had....it just faded out, I guess. I miss Grasshopper, & Silk, also. STIRFRIED Good to see you made it! Try drinking more water in the evening. It makes you feel fuller, & I've heard it helps curb the craving for sweets. It's worth a try. We'll miss you in June, when you're gone....just come back! :D HELLO LINUS, 2B, RITA, KIM...EVERYBODY...HAVE A GREAT FRIDAY! |
Good Morning Girls!!
http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies.../2/happy48.gif The sun is shining...and NOODLES got a full nights sleep!! Yippee!! I took a nice hot bubble bath last night and soaked for a while and read God's word. There's something very soothing about a warm bath and reading inspirational things that calms my soul. :cloud9:
DD is doing much better. She is eating and drinking normally again. Must of been a 24 hour thing. DH brought home our favorite: Vietnamese Pho Soup and Chicken & Steamed Rice with cucumbers, carrots, and fish oil sauce. YUM! So..we're going to head up to the tournament after all. I'll be goneski for a few days. Ahhhhh...I can feel the 3FC withdrawls now!! http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies...d/scared09.gif But it will be nice to have some time away with just DH & DD. We're going to go to a ghost town on Sunday. I'll take pics for ya. Well, must get my rear in gear around here. I still have to list a few more goodies on FeeBaY, do dishes, run the vacuum, dust, water the yard, feed the animals & prepare them for their "house sitter", gather up my judging materials, pack, and go go go!! Woosh!! http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies.../2/happy46.gif Have a good weekend everyone!!! :grouphug: |
Hi everybody! You all sound pretty chirpy with the weekend coming on. The weather here is set to look pretty good withought being too hot. I am still waiting for my sunhat to arrive but it shouldnt be long now. I am going to look a prize nut in a hat but better to be safe than sorry. My legs are still giving me grief, bit like tooth ache but I keep popping pills till I see my Rheumy on the 15th June. The good news is that I have lost another 4lbs so I am well pleased with that.Right well I am going to go and start on a huge pile of ironing. Have a great weekend and catch you all soon

Hey Iamgonnadoit Been meaning to get back to ya.....why do you think you have to post 50 posts to put in animated graphic??? I don't understand. This is beginning to be a real mystery to me. Something HAS to be stopping the animated graphics. :^: :flow1: Noodles Glad DD is better & you can go on your trip! We'll miss you....have a great time! :flow1: Everyone else....Have a great Sunday!!! |

Well......I guess I need to stop long enough to read the rules!! :lol: Thanks, Noodles! Be back later!! |
It's OK, Angel Lover...I get those moments too!! More often these days than most days. :lol:
I'm home!! I have a freaking headache and I'm in a rotten mood so I am not going to post much cause I don't want to be too negative and bring the moods down. If you want to read about it just go here...I left it in the bite me thread... http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/showthread.php?t=40652 I'll be back when I feel more chipper. Right now I'd like to just ring some necks!!!!!!!! But I'll opt for a nap instead. ZzzzZZZzz!!! PS: Hubby didn't go with us. He wound up getting sick and yakking too, like the kid did Wed. Poor guy. That's why he yelled at the cat. He finally fell asleep and the cat woke him up. *sigh* |
thanks
[FONT=Georgia][COLOR=Cyan]Hey thanks for the tip about the metho. I guess its okay. Its just that I lost weight like that last year and then I gained it all back, I am craving ice-cream mostly. But thats what happened before. Iguess I will just have to be careful and just eat what I'm supposed like low carb, that means NO ICE CREAM I can do it.
Hey there angel-lover and linus ,immagonnadoit and happy canuck though I have never met you before,so I say hi happy canuck, I probably spelled that wrong. anyway girls I just want to kee4p in touch to see how you each are doing. Post me something about your life or diet and workout. or just about how your R.A. is Love laura |

What you do is after you type your whole message, go over it with your mouse and highlight it, then go and pick what you want to do and click that and it should automatically do this for you. You won't see the results though until after you post the message. If that doesnt work for you just remember to add the same words at the end as you have at the beginning, but add a / to it. like this [/color][/font] in front of your font=georgia and color=cyan. don't forget the little []'s either. I just didnt put them all in because if I did, then you wouldn't be able to see this explanation. So..you have a rare post without Noodles color! hehehe |
Good morning! :flow1: Noodles My friend....try to get some rest. Hopefully you'll get to feeling better. Sorry such a bad start to the week. :?: We're here for you, if you need to vent.http://www.emotipad.com/newemoticons/Group-Hug2.gif :flow1: Stirfried There's different ways to put in the font & color. You had it right, all but the[/]& [/]at the end of your post. And like Noodles said, it's very simple to highlight, then pick the color. You can even highlight part of the post like this& then change colors by highlight the other part & choosing. Right below those choices are the places to choose B for bold,etc, then right, or center, or left, etc. You'll learn with practice. Just keep experimenting. The Metho makes my food taste strange...like it's ruined, so I keep my weight down, mostly, because of that. I should have been on it, while I was on my diet to lose. :lol: I mostly try to just maintain now...although I wouldn't mind losing a little more. I get a Remicade treatment Thursday...I look forward to it because it helps me so much. I dread it also, because they really drug me up, being sensitive to it, so I'm "out of it" for a couple of days. I hate having this mess, but what are we to do? Sometimes I have pity parties & bawl about it, but it really doesn't help. I find that when it's close to time for a treatment, like now, is when I mostly feel this way. I'm also ill...can't seem to help it. :flow1: Hello to Iamgonnadoit, Rita, Kim, 2b, Linus...let us know how you're doing. I hope everyone is feeling well today. Talk to you all later. http://img61.photobucket.com/albums/...Lover/bye1.gif |
:thanks:, Angel-Lover. Yer so sweet!! :D You know my real name is Angel, right?? :angel:
I hear ya about treatment days. I dreaded shot day. Blah...I would put it off until midnight sometimes. I'm so grateful that I am OFF of metho!! Bad enough I lost some of my hair from PCOS. :( Hi rest of ya!! :wave: Hope yer all doing good. My kitty still hasn't come home...time for me to visit the pound and hssa and put up other flyers. **hugs** :grouphug: |
Hope you don't mind my jumping in here, but I feel like I know a lot of you anyway. I post on several threads here on 3FC and read lots more. Noodles, congrats on the bowling. I used to bowl all the time, until the arthritis in my knees got so bad I couldn't handle it. I finally had both my knees replaced in 2002, and about a month ago I decided to see if I could still bowl, but I couldn't fit my fingers in my ball, so I tried a house ball. I was so afraid that I'd fall on my knees (that would be bad) that I only bowled one game and quit.
I have OA and Sjorgrens (that's also an autoimmune disease in the RA/Lupus family) and I have a lot of pain. I do water aerobics five days a week to keep myself as limber as possible. I have a lot of weight to loose, and don't have a lot of luck loosing it, but I'm still trying. I love the graphics yall are doing here. Yep I'm a TEXAN ! |
ageoldie! So glad you came by. Hope you'll stay with us. I'm on other threads, also, but know my friends here understand my pain, & we can complain on bad days & not feel like we're talking about something no one else understands. Of course, others are very kind & encouraging....but, when you're talking to someone who's "there", it helps. I like your graphics, too! Both knees replaced! Ouch! Sounds like it may have really helped, though. Hope so. I know about Lupus, because of a couple of people I know. I don't know about Sjorgrens. Autoimmune disease says a lot, though. It's so hard to get people that are healthy to realize how devastating RA, etc is. Honestly, I didn't know until I got it. It swept so fast through my body, I didn't really get a chance to get used to the idea of having it. (If there is such a thing, as getting used to it.) Keep us updated how you're doing. :flow1: Noodles I remember now you saying your name is Angel. I HAD forgotten, though. I collect angels. I started 12 yrs ago. Had a very large collection from several states. Not just figurines, but, picture frames, calendars, etc. We had a housefire 1 1/2 yrs ago. A lot of my angels were burned. I cleaned the remaining & put them in boxes & stored them in a public storage with furniture, & other sentimental things from the fire. The storage building was filled to capacity. One day last summer, we discovered someone had broken into the storage building & stole everything we had! ( a few rough months we've been through). Anyway, my sweet mother-in-law gave me a surprise "Angel Shower" & I received a lot of beautiful angels! I'm still getting them. This meant sooo much to me! Of course, I'll never forget the ones I had. A lot of those were gifts, also. The storage had things of my dad's (deceased) that meant a lot to me. Also, an oak bedroom suit we had bought the week we got married 36 yrs ago. Oh well.....water under the bridge. I didn't mean to go on & on. But, I DO like angels!!!! :angel: I know what you mean about the hair loss. My hair is thin, & the Methotrexate makes it come out even more. I have a great beautician. She makes my hair look a lot thicker than what it is! Hope you're feeling better today.....& find your kitty. The pic below is for you. :flow1: Everyone have a great Tuesday! |
Welcome, Ageoldie!! Thanks for the nice comments. :D
Goodness gracious, Charlotte! You've been through alot!! Ya know Charlotte is 1 of my favorite names...I had a car that we named Charlotte..my mother bought it when I was born and passed it to me when I was 18. I changed the way I spelled the name to "Sharlet" so I could get a personalized plate for her. Sniffles..I miss that car!! :( No cat. I put up flyers, went to pound and did paperwork, hub did the HSSA trip, and I put his pics on our local lost and found pet site. Oh and newspapers. Cosmo was a pound adoptee and already abused and so he's scared as it is of sounds and things. This time I wasn't home for him to run too. Besides that, everything else that could go wrong is going wrong. I'm ready to run away from home. http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies/sad/3/sad05.gif |
