I hate scales. The scale I have is a waist high slider type. It's been in the garage for at least the last 5 years. My daughter jumped on it and said it was about 2 lbs heavy. I'll give it a cleaning today, maybe a little lubrication on the slider. I placed my body on it today and showed I had lost 4 lbs since the last time I was weighed at the Drs.

Congratulations for being on the downhill slide!

I have an itty bitty slide since 3/1/07, down 1.5 lbs.; IF it (the loss) stays with me through Sunday, then I will BELIEVE it is gone. However, it has been a long time since the needle on the scale has been on the sunnyside of 150, so I'll take whatever victories I can get!

Have a good day. It's sunny here and 33 degrees. Spring is coming...ok, in several weeks, but it IS coming.

the dirt on the scale might be good for another pound...if you can find a few mice carcasses, then maybe another 1/2 pound!

I find any mice-dead or alive, and we're moving!!!!

Guess you won't ever be a country girl after all! Mice are a way of life out here in the sticks! Something about having 100,000 bushels of grain stored I think... They make it to the garage sometimes, but with the poison and traps I have out, they never make it to the house. It is a BOY job to dispose of the carcasses! I won't even begin to tell you what they (the boys) do with some of the dead stuff they find or shoot...
