Sorry I have to make this short today. My computer is just now working. We had to dump the entire hard drive and start over. She works much faster now, thank goodness. Cool poll today! I have one brother and one brother-in-law. My DH and I both have tons of cousins, though.
I feel pretty good today even though I went way over points yesterday. DH and I went to an authentic mexican res. last night and rented the Exorcist. The res was just like the places we went to eat on our honeymoon in PVR. It was a good time. I also got my hair done and my brows waxed. Happy with the hair, but the lady did a bad wax job. Oh well!
Jen ~ Way to go on the workout. I should start doing that! I wake up so early anyway.
Becky ~ Don't worry about the gain. I'm right there with you this week (I was up 1.2). Hopefully we can be motivated to get it off this week. I only have 5 more weeks until the cruise and now I'm back to 5.8 away from goal.
Stacey~ Our sponsor couple was very laid back. They had lived together before marriage, so they we're good at not judging others situations. DH and I lived in two seperate cities so LTBM was not an option for us. I think it would have made the first couple of months easier, though.
Lisa~What part of the coast are you going to? My DH is from New Orleans! Unfourtunately we're going to be in Houston for this Easter. I'm throwing a shower for a friend of mine.

Hello to all I missed. Welcome Angie! This board is getting do busy! Its great.

Smoking Update: I am still smoke free! Even after all of the stress. This weekend will be a test, but I can do it!

Have a great weekend!

Becky: If you feel like you need someone to talk to, then it IS a good idea. Go with your gut feeling. My mom always said, "Never mess with Women's intuition." She also said, "Don't do anything you'll regret tomorrow"
and "....I'll give you something to cry about!!"
Ok, I digress.
Is everyone else ready to go home?? We had our luncheon and I am so stuffed!! I could be a giant easter egg!
Kirsty: I'm envious of your Easter vacation. I don't get any days off!! Booh on that! (How B.J am I?)
Kay: How is the quitting? Hang in there!
Emily: Wow! That's fast work on getting the house! At least you're burning major energy by moving!
Angie: Welcome! This board has really grown! I can remember when I first started, we would have one thread last several days. Now, we average about 30 to 40 posts a day! Neato! What great support!!
Brenda: Back away from the candy. Put your hands in your pockets! You should put some "good" candy on your desk, something that takes awhile to eat (like hard candy) that way, you won't feel completely pulled to her candy. or bubble gum. I did that and it really helped. I got lots of practice with bubble-blowing, too.
Lolly: Hey stranger! I'm glad the paper is going well!! What is the weather like in Spain? Yeah, Camryn Manneheim. When she won an Emmy for her role on "The Practice" she said, "This is for the fat people!"
I was kindof offended, but then again, liberated. Buy the April 2 edition of People (american) the cover page is about "Healthy Bodies Are Back" Somewhere else I read that--I think it was in an earlier post--Marilyn Monroe was a size 12!! Wow!
Ok, I have to get back to work so I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
Belle: Get better!! Drink lots of OJ and Chicken Noodle Soup.
ps--re: Survivor. Who is next? What did everyone think of last night's show.
Oh yeah, one more thing:
Kirsty and Lolly: Is "The Weakest Link" a good game show? IT's coming to America and it looks intriguing. I guess "Who wants to be a millionaire" is dropping in ratings. hmmm the questions are too damn hard!
Now, I'm going.
Hi to everyone I missed!

[StaceyT]

Kay: Woo Hoo!! Way to go! Yeah, our "session" last night was actually interesting. We brought home a "test" for us to take together and then when it's done, we'll go back and our minister will go over the results with us. That's it!

[Shalyne]

Lolly... I saw that issue too! Very cool. Do any of you get Mode Magazine? You should take a look at it if you don't... has lots of real-sized models.

Kay,

I'm from Long Beach, MS... near Biloxi. It's about a 45 min to an hour drive to New Orleans... we used to drive over there all the time when I was growing up. The drinking age was only 18, and we'd cross the state line to stock up

I L-O-V-E love muffalattas. Ask your husband if you've never heard of them. They are delicious. It's a cajun/italian sandwhich. Well, I was figuring out points... anyway one muffalatta feeds two or four people.... well 1/4 of one is 26 points I really wanted to have one. I'll see if I can bank or something.. or maybe I'll just have an 1/8th and a salad. but I think that will just leave me wanting more. I haven't decided what to do yet.

The rest of you -- have a nice weekend... I'm sorry I didn't respond to everyone... I just love to talk about New Orleans... it's the best city in the world for me. Anyway, I have to wrap up some stuff here at work before I take off.

Lisa ~ I love those sandwiches! I had no idea they we're so many points How many points is a Hurricane? I bet a ton. DH and I went to Pat O's last easter at 2 in the afternoon and made up for all of our Lenten fasting! I have such a great time there. I've never been to Biloxi, but I hear its beautiful along the coast. DH has an uncle that lives there, so we need to get there soon. The food is the best part of NOLA. We try to go to a fancy restaurant each time we go back. This Christmas we went to Commander's Palace (where Emeril started). It was unbelieveable! Luckily they serve portions that are small, so I didn't go overboard. All this food talk is making me hungry. The people who ordered lunch today forgot to get me something veggie, so all that I could eat was potato salad. It seems like every Friday they totally forget that some of us in the office abstain from meat. Oh well, Easter is around the corner.

Stacey~ I'm glad the session was OK. Is the test called FOCUS, by any chance? Thats the one we took. Don't get freaked by it. It isn't always accurate. It does give good insight for some issues. Our test told us that money would be are hard topic (duh). Other than that, it said that we we're in the 90% for compatibility. Sometimes I wonder if that is right .....

Gotta go! Have a great weekend all! And Lolly ~ Keep up the Spanish lessons. Maybe I'll pick up a bit!

o.k. I'm starting to get tense. I got the electricity in the house turned on, will be turned on by 5 pm today. Hooray! The water I need a stupid deposit for UGH. We've been faithful customers for 1.5 years so I don't think it's necessary. But that's my opinion.

Here is what takes the cake. It is in regards to my home business. I ordered 350.00 worth of stuff last month thinking that if you ordered the minimum over your 3 month span that it kept you qualified. boy was I ever WRONG! Apparently you have to place a minimum 500.00 order (retail) in one month in order to stay active as a consultant. If I would have known that I would have finished placing my entire order last month. SO now on top of buing a house and needing to buy paint etc...I have an added expense of trying to come up with the money to finish placing my 500.00 order (I have only place an order for 120.00 this month) What gets me about all of this is that my customer base is good but small and I don't want to get overloaded with lots of extra inventory that I can't sell right away (cause really 3 months goes by fast and then I have to order again). I gorged on some gingersnaps (had four, 2 cookies=1pt) to relieve my stress and guess what?? it did'nt work! LOL.

I just keep repeating " I will not stress out, I will not stress out"

Anybody need any Creative Memories Scrapbooking supplies???
