I'm very late tonight!

Was very pleased to see that there are apparently other aspiring writers here! It has always been my dream; it's just finding the courage!

Today went pretty well food wise. Monday is grocery day and the problem is that I get off work at 1:00 and immediately head out to the store, so I haven't had lunch yet when I get there! But I still did healthy buying and then as soon as I had unloaded the groceries, I had a WW pizza in the microwave!

Spent most of the evening reading a book I ordered that was recommended by my ADHD son's therapist, called "1-2-3 Magic". Anyone have any experience with this book? The principal seems very simple, and at this point, I am willing to try anything!

Good night to all of you and happy Tuesday!

Oh Ellen...I was actually THE FIRST to weigh in this morning thank you! LOL.
Just because I was one of the few who had NO loss....you go and forget me. (j/k)

Congrats to all the "losers" out there. You are all doing great and I WILL lose next week. Got in my walk and I have been walking at least 2 miles a day/5 or 6 days a week. I guess I need to ramp it up and walk 2 miles more a day.

Hello to the newest Jaded Ladies.

Ginny...Yellow lilacs? How wonderful. I had never heard of such a thing. We don't have the old fashioned type of lilacs. Ours are smaller bushes/smaller blooms and I believe they were Korean lilacs. They smell wonderful.

HELLO LADIES
I'M READY FOR BED AND I WANTED TO POP IN AND SAY GOODNIGHT

SUE I AM SO SORRY, HONESTLY , I HANG MY HEAD IN SHAME, I did forget you how could I , how dare I , I apologize from the bottom of my empty stomach , or maybe that's my head I will never forget you again I promise Hope I didn't ruin your day, with my neglect

HI SUSIE.....I WILL BE THE CLIPART QUEEN AND THE WEIGHT LOSS QUEEN How dare you use my kitty cat name in vane you leave my kitty cat out of this. Hmmm carrot cake huh , you think just because its got carrots in it , its ok to eat is that what I am supposed to believe I suppose it had some of that nice thick fat free cream cheese icing on it to and possibly some marzipan carrots You the best Monday mark your calender girl , and you best show up before dawn this time .I hope you had a wonderful day Miss Susan and I have a little gift for you


HI GINNY.... I was wondering how you are, How did the anniversary go, very well I hope, no hanky panky I hope well maybe a little I have so many kitties, I could open a store I have lets say more than a few, I,m like a shelter for homeless kitties , I can't bear for any animal to be hungry or homeless, so I can't turn any away , if they come to my door. Paris is the only kitty I ever bought , and the reason I brought her home was because she looked so sad and sick at the pet store, I couldn't leave her , and sure enough when I took her to the vet the next day she had a few problems that needed immediate attention. She is a sweetie , as all of my kitties are. I love korean lilacs , I had so many bushes at my other house, they are so fragrant , I had 3 bushes under my living room window, and when I would open it up the house was filled with beautiful fragrance. I am going to go and get me some soon Yellow lilacs would be very pretty .I hope you are having a wonderful night

HI KATHY....HOW ARE YOU ....Its so good to see you here I wondered what happened to you. You have a lot of catching up to do. I hope you are having a wonderful night, and look forward to chatting again with you.



HI LAKEGIRL.... That would be a wonderful dream come true to have a book you have written published . As far back as high schools teachers wanted me to send my poems to a publishing company , and my friends and family still try to encourage me , but I have no confidence in myself at all. I figure now its to late to do anything like that, I think a lot of my callings have passed I really get a lot of enjoyment out of writing poems , especially for my friends here. I hope you are having a nice night.

HI JANE.... How is the planting going , did Neal work those kinks out I forgot you asked , but I am about 300 miles west of New York, or 10 miles west of Niagara Falls, Ontario or 30 miles west of Buffalo and I am almost 3000 miles away from my Angie so does that mean you are coming for a visit soon


HI MINDEE....Hurry back ok, Have a great move, and I will talk to you as soon as you get back

I ran into a friend who has been seeing this Dr. for the last 5-6 months. She has lost 40 lbs. My boss was telling me all about it but I had already known,,,she has a couple of friends who have had amazing results.

THATS MY KITTIE FAMILY

Good morning ladies,

Marti, 147 and you are complaining.. shame on you..I'd give my eye teeth to be 147 again.

Ellen, thank you for sharing pictures of your kitties, they are all adorable, you can't look at those little faces and not love them all... I have a friend who takes in strays also.. She takes in any kind of animal, she works with the local animal welfare people. Her husband built her a small 2 room house just for the cats. IT's heated and looks like a real little house. She had to many to keep in her home.. but she had some there too. Anyway I think it is great that you do that.

Angie, does this doctor advise you on dieting or is he/she for a tummy reduction? I know a couple gals who had the tummy reduction done, they still had to diet like crazy to lose the weight. One gal said she can never eat meat again, and another one lost weight but then restretched her stomach out and gained back again... it's a rough battle no matter how it's done.

It is cold here today, I don't expect many customers. But I have some paper work I can do. We actually had some snow on my deck this morning. Dh told me about it, I didn't want to look. It feels more like it's going onto fall than spring. Hopefully it warms up soon.

I saw the yellow lilacs in a flower catalog. I didn't know they existed either. BUt they looked so pretty. I already have light and dark purple ones and white ones.. so I thought yellow would be really pretty. My magnolia tree is in full bloom.

Well, I guess I better get ready for work. Keep up the good work, I like having lots of posts to read in the evening. It's better than watching tv. Oh Ellen, you have quite the soap opera going there with all those kitties. And how did you get my picture.. the one with the flannel nightgown?

Have a good day everybody,
Ginny

A big fat "0" on the weight loss for me.

I am feeling better, my eyes are not so itchy today. Thanks all for asking. Quick break at work...so this will be short and sweet...

Ellen--my kittys don't venture inside but come running to be fed.

Lakegirl--Had problems with my son all through school and with teachers and other administrators wanting to put him on Ritalin. I read several books from Cynthia Tobias (www.cynthiatobias.com) the best one was "The Way They Learn" which helped me to help him understand the material better. Another great book was "The Christian Woman's Guide to Personalities" it also helped me. I think all the reading material I went through with him has helped me as a supervisor.

Ang--I got the BFL book out at the library.....

Ginny--snow....yuck..

Marti--the Studebaker is a new project car though it is almost ready to go on the road..but not yet restored to it's former glory...He also bought blueprints for a "t-bucket"--he bought the body from a fiberglass place but has manufactured the rest--it's almost done & he wants to race it at a place in Hagerstown--then there is the 1965 Chevy truck with a huge Cadillac engine in it & a chopped top that he used to race at the dragstrip and of course his motorcycles.

Sue--I am getting serious about my water comsumption which seems to help me lose. Here's hoping with both move the numbers down!!

Good morning,

Jane, when do you get the results of your MRI?

Ellen, my computer was so slow last night I stopped it then clicked post,,,then I saw that it had gone through so I deleted I hope,,,from my area its deleted.

Ginny, no Im seeing my family Dr. about a a referral to another Dr. who specializes in weight loss, no surgeries. Just plain on food, and some councilling. And of course with getting my blood analized possibly what ever Im lacking I can get that worked out with meds or a herbal remedy.

Marti, you are one lucky woman with James...Monte wouldn't know what to do with how to make soup. Other then using a can opener. He one time thought to make cheese biscuits,,,ya well he used cheese whiz cause grating the other cheese was work. The biscuits didn't turn out...lol

Jules, nice to know you are feeling better,,,I went and had to buy another allergy med last night,,,alerga isn't working for me this time. Went back to Bendryl,,,it knocks me out though but last night I didn't mind. My eyes are both still swollen...Ive been using my glasses more,,,just don't want to be scratching my eyes with contacts in.

well off to work I go,,,monte has me working on a project. Looking for a company that pours foundations,,,but in Lacombe area. 2 hours north of here... he saw an auction for some old houses,,,he wants to buy 2 and fix them up. And that is about it....
