    Susie-I think i missed your score on your test, or you still haven't gotten it back yet. it is also nice to get the "looking great"comments isn't it. Awesome job lady.
    Penny-Pictures are awesome. You look fabulous lady. Keep up the great work. Have fun in Vegas. My sister-in-law is there now. She just won 625 on a slot machine.
    Coco-so good to see ya back
    Summer hope all is well

    Eleni-have you heard when your surgery is yet?
    Wanda-hope you are dong great too.

    Dad is still in the hospital. Mom and my brother had a meeting with a social worker yesterday. They didn't find out about the meeting till Saturday. My sister and I didn't go, cuz nothing changes at those meetings. Dad didn't go to the meeting. They talked to them about putting dad in a home, or getting some help at home. My db thinks he is going to help. I'm not holding my breath with it. He may get paid to do it. But i'm going to keep an eye on what he does to get paid. Last time he "helped" out, he didn't do anything but sit on the couch and watch tv with dad. Mom still did the getting him up, cleaning him, getting his food and then she had my brother to cook for too. DB doesn't think dad will make it another 3 weeks. Not sure how much he is eating. And he is sleeping all the time, I guess. I haven't made it there yet. I was suppose to take mom on Sunday, but she went to church, and i didn't know that. I kept trying to call her, and no one answered. I finally stopped at 4:30. Brother ended up taking her, which i don't understand cuz i told her i would. She is really stressed these days. The social worker gave my mom the papers for dad in the room, she thinks he knows that there is a possiblity that he won't be coming home. Saturday after Brandon's birthday, my sister and her family took my mom to go see him, and all he did was glare, cuz they weren't there earlier. Mom tried to get around it by saying we had brandon's birthday, but that didn't help. He wasn't eating either, or talking. Just shook his head yes or no when asked a questioned. He is trying to manipulate people. I won't be subjected to it. Mom was being the doting wife, by honey this and honey that, and when they got outside to leave, total different attitude. Love my dad, but he hasn't always been the nicest man around, specially when it comes to my mom. I know i wouldn't of put up with the crap that she did all those/these years. DB, thinks we (sister and I) should of been to see dad sooner than saturday. Excuse me, we have full time jobs, plus 0t and small children. I just can't jump when he says jump. Anyway, dad won't be coming home today, not sure when. I'm just praying the the Lord gives my mom strength. She had to for many years take care of my sister that was physcially handicapped, and now she is taking care of my dad. I pray that God will give her some relief. It is so stressing to her. She will only leave when he is home to go to the store, or she goes outside to do yard work, and then dad wonders where she is all the time. She has no life. K, so on a different note. CLOSING DAY well it came, 10 hours away. I had dream after dream about it last night. Still got a lot to do. Probably won't move in for another week, at least. Cleaning, taking down wall paper, and painting. So for the next few weeks, i may be mia more than normal. I have to get some things done today for the closing, pick up the kids, take them to my sister-in-laws work, and then run some errands, and then pick up hubby. We have some champaign for afterwards, and a few beers for those that don't do champaign.
    Garret is doing well, growing, playing, talking almost rolling over. Loves attention though. Brandon is doing well, can't keep him in clothes. They are either to small or toooooooooo big. He is such a good boy.

    Well you all take care. Thinking of you all
    HUGS
  • Hi Everyone,
    This will be very short today and really for the rest of the week. The reason being that my home computer crashed today and it won't be fixed until after next Sunday or so. My brother is a computer guy and he's going to fix it, but I won't see him until Friday to get it to him.

    I'm OP and doing well. I walked last night for an hour and skipped the weights. I was feeling really tired and my throat was a little scratchy, so I just took it easy and listend to my body.

    Wendy: I'm so happy for you that you closed on your house! You asked about my test scores, you didn't miss them, I haven't got it back yet. We get them tonight at class.

    Sherri: Sounds like you are feeling a little better? Didn't it feel good to clean out that drawer? I'm tackling my jewlery box next!

    Everyone else..I'm thinking about you, but my time is limited. I'm going to try to check the boards every day on my lunch hour if that is permissiable with my work.

    Take care...I'll be around when I can and hopefully, my computer will be up and running soon.
  • Wendy,

    Just think in a few hours girl you will own a house. I am so excited for you. You deserve it. I know it is something you have wanted for a long time and now you will have it.
    I will keep your family in my prayers. Your mom is a very strong person.

    Susie,

    Let us know your score tomorrow. Great job on the walk. Yes it did feel great to clean out that drawer.

    I have weigh in tomorrow I hope it goes better this week then last week. I did workout yesterday and today on schedule so that is a good thing. Last week only got there once. So I am doing better this week.

    Jesse is 6 mo old now can't believe it. The time flys. He is doing great also. He gets some shots tonight so he won't be a happy boy then we will go to my parents for lasagna dinner. Nothing else happening talk to you all later.

    Sherri
