You guys are so much nicer than the message boards on WW. You guys are very welcoming. I can't wait to get to know you all better. Hope everyone does well this upcoming week on the plan!

It's Friday and you know what that means------watch out for the pizza! Okay, I'm a little whacky today.
It's beautiful weather here.

Dali, you say the nicest things. I haven't been to the WW boards in ages. Years ago (maybe 11), it seemed lots different. I left there and found this great place.
Please tell us about you.

I am Tina , mother of a grown son and wife of a great guy. I reached Lifetime in '93 but haven't been down to that goal weight in quite some time.

Susan, I'm so sorry you're sick. It does make it hard when your helper is out sick. If you went to work today, I hope you felt a little better.
Tammy, you need to get well, too. Of course, this is a vacation and time to relax.

Hope everyone else is well!!!

Tina, I like pizza!! lol We had one the other night that was so greasy that we threw alot of it out. I might have said that in another message. It is very nice here too. Close to 70 and sunshine. I like that!! I keep thinking the warmer weather will help me deal with this colder better than the cold weather at home. Psyching myself out.

I think all of us need to go to that spa somewhere! Those who are sick can get better, and those who aren't sick can help us get better!!!

I just posted a little loss on the weigh in thread! I know it isn't Thursday, but heck, a loss is a loss!

Tim called this afternoon. He said that around our house there really isn't much flooding. In other areas around though, there is quite a bit of flooding. He had gone to check things out, went for a haircut, and picked up mail at the post office. He's going to mail us any important things, you know, like million dollar checks! lol

We checked into a casino boat today that leaves from a few miles from here. We thought that we might do that some day. This week we really haven't done much because of this silly cold, so I've got big plans for when I'm feeling better!!!! I mean, there is a mall in this town, and I haven't been IN it yet!!!

Tammy hasn't been to the mall yet!?!?!?!!! Boy, girl, you have been sick.
I hope you feel better quickly.
I'm sorry that I haven't heard about the flooding in Ohio. But, I'm glad your house was okay.

Well, let's see. I am 29. I have lived my entire life in Lexington, KY. I am a video technician (so basically I sit and edit people's home movies all day). I have never been married and I have no kids. I do have a few nieces, they seem like my children. I am interested in photography. I love stand up comedy and I LOVE to travel. I am trying to lose 30 pounds by my trip to Italy on March 29th. I am at 12 pounds right now. If there is anything else you wanna know, just ask.

Dali, Welcome to the group!!! We do like to have fun!!! Plus we are a very supportive group. ........ It doesn't necessarily have to be weight loss that we support each with. There are several us that have been through a lot together such as children graduating, retiring, birth of children, losses, surgeries.... the list could go on. We do find lots to laugh at along the way! So we are glad you are here to join us!!

Tina, how is Larry feeling? Can you believe that Tammy hasn't been to the mall? I do think that cold has gotten to her!!!

Tammy, When is Tim coming? I know you miss him!!!! Did you win enough money to buy Tina and I a BIG present or better yet..... a trip someplace.

I'm feeling better. Still not great, but better. Pat still feels horrible. We are a pretty pitiful pair. We did get out for a ride and to our FAVORITE PIZZA place back where we use to live. We go there and it's such a treat.

Well, I think I'm off to visit the recliner or the couch for a little while. I might be visiting with my eyes shut.

Oh, Amy is still alive. She has been sick with her asthma. It's been REALLY bad. I think she probably should have been in the hospital, but what do I know. I just play like I'm a doctor.

Tammy,
I hadn't heard about the flooding either. I hope all is ok!!!!

Man, it is windy outside. I just went for a walk. I think I have frostbite on my face haha. How is everyone doing with their exercising? I have been slacking but I walked almost 4 miles today. Hopefully I can keep it up.

Hello everyone! Check out this site. www.jekyllisland.com/islandtreasures/
Yesterday we were walking on the beach, and I found one of the floats!! Our picture should be on their website soon. I was so excited!!! I had wanted to buy one last year, but the cost held me back ($65-70!!!) I keep trying to get out into the sunshine thinking it will help get rid of this cold. I think this has gone on long enough.

We are going for a drive later today, not sure where. My goal for the week is to get inside that mall!!!

Susan, we haven't been on the boat yet. Not sure when we will go to gamble. Soon!! Tim will be here on the 21st. Looking forward to having him here. Did the pizza help you feel better???

Tina, maybe you guys should come and help me make it to the mall!!!

Bob is doing laundry, and I'm cooking lunch (while I'm on the computer!).

Tammy, how exciting about the float. When I lived in Kodiak, AK people were finding them all the time. They can be pricey if you purchase them from someone.

I thought I would let you all know that I'm participating in the March for Babies Walk, formerly known as March of Dimes Walk, in honor or my nephew. If you don't mind, please consider donating to this worthy organization. You can go here to donate http://www.marchforbabies.org/forethanwilliam. Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Ok, I had a message all ready to hit send and my battery came out of my laptop. Boo!!!!!

We had a staff dev. day so it of course was a waste of time. This afternoon we got out early so I called my trainer and she met me early. It was nice to be finished early and then home. I had a little down time too.

Tammy, that's cool about the floater. I've never heard of such things. I live such a sheltered life! Find one for me now.... I know Tina would like one too!

Dori, I'm sorry I can't give to the March of Dimes..... it's a personal thing, long story too. I did do the walk right after my son passed away and my family all walked in his memory. That's cool that you are walking for your nephew. Was he a premie?

Tina, are you getting rain down your way? It's suppose to start tonight here and then a cold front is suppose to blow in.

Dali, how are you doing? How is that frost bite?

Hey Susan,
the frostbite is better haha. But we are getting some awesome snow right now, so I am sure walking won't be an option tomorrow. I will have to do workout videos. How are you?

Dali,
I'm doing good. I'm impressed that you tried to walk in the cold. Us Texans don't do well in the cold. I'm ready for spring. However, I do act like a kid when it snows here, I go from window to window. How much snow do you have?

auntie we have over an inch but it just started. They said 3-6 inches with sleet on top of that. So it will make for an interesting commute to work.

Hi,
My internet connection has been down since Saturday morning. Boy, talk about withdrawal!!!!! There was a wire outside that had to be replaced.
We have some irate squirrels that live around here. They were probably the culprits.

I've been reading all the posts.
Boy, am I tired!!! I've got to do so much more right now. Well, I have to do everything right now. I really, really appreciate my husband now. He is so much better but still not "out of the woods."

I'll write more tomorrow when I'm actually awake.

Susan, tell Miss Amy that I miss her and to get well.
