Hello all!
Again, just dont' know where the time goes although I have been lurking from work but don't have the nerve to log on and post as its still a new job and really don't expect them to encourage that kind of thing. I don't have any privacy either so I take quick looks and always promise to post at night.
I was amazed to read about the car being stolen- I always figure d that was one advantage to driving an older car- that no one would bother!
Lin, we had to do the same with a beloved beagle last year. Since then, we've replaced him w/ 2 pound rescues but still talk about him and reminisce. Its hard to see them go even when they are really ill.
Everyone is losing! Me too, November was a great month for losing totals! I broke thru to the 170's and still can't quite belive it ! Especially since the momentum continued and I lost 2.5 the following week-- Like you, Lin, I'm skeptical and knowing I should enjoy it while it lasts!!
Take care all and have a great holiday!

I know how hard that decision is, I'm sorry you had to face it.
