Fooled you all. I got here first and put the coffee on. Sorry, but it's only half-decaff none of those fancy-schmantzy kinds for me. Feel free to add whatever decadent elixers you desire.
Okay, I confess it's only 11 pm Wednesday here, but I wanted to be first for a change.
Well, folks, as expected my flight to Scotland has been changed. I was supposed to leave today (20th) at 9 pm and now we're leaving at 4 AM!!! We will have to be at the airport for midnight and then sit around for four hours waiting to actually leave. Believe it or not, this works out better because our daughter in Scotland wasn't going to be able to meet us if we arrived at 3 pm but now that we're not arriving until 10 pm she will. We will probably be like zombies by then. I've heard so many rumors about what you can and can't bring on the plane I don't know what to believe. One person said they weren't even allowed to bring their purses onto the plane. They had to put their passports and any pills they might need into clear plastic bags and check their purses with their other luggage. Does this make sense?
Anyhow, I may not get another chance to check in with you as I have a busy day lined up (including a weigh-in) so I'll say bye-bye for now and I'll try to keep you posted about my travels from my daughter's in Edinburgh.

Well pack me in a clear plastic bag and take me along as luggage! You must be just so excited!

Hershey and I slept in this a.m. after a terrible night - I had the runs and she had the barfies. Must have been something we ate - not corn, of course.

I have the new Yahoo club set up and have email addies from lots of folks. As the site goes down tomorrow, it would be great to get everyone's addies on my list today. Then I can just send out the Yahoo URL if we need to chat rather than email.

DH and I are off to the Doc this a.m. for our "team" appointment, his for his diabetes and heart and cholesterola and blood pressure! I am going to discuss my ultra-sound and decide where we go from here.

Have a good day, chickies

Just a quick stop in to say HI! The complications of a busy life are getting the best of me. I have been on and off program lately. Today I start ON-PROGRAM again.

Well good morning Linda! You must be busy today if you're starting us up! I've also heard you should be prepared for long line ups to get your baggage checked and an extensive and thorough check of your baggage. Makes you feel like you should just dumpe your dresser on the security guys and tell them to pack for you!

Morning Ruth. sorry to hear you two aren't doing so well--is Hershey pregnant? Maybe it's morning sickness--no??

Hi....Bye..jenny--you were in and out so fast I barely saw you!

I have a busy day ahead of me as well--tonight I head to my gran's to drop off the wee one, go to my uncle's place to catch a lift into Toronto since he works down there, all in time to catch my train to Montreal at 11:30am. Will be gone until Monday night and I expect to get in rather late. So today is last minute laundry, packing and getting ready.

Have a fine day everyone!

How is everybody today?

I had to get up early to bring youngest son to band practice so came on in to the mall and walked for 40 minutes before coming to the office. Yippeeeeeee! That makes 3 days this week - I'm on a roll again!

"Complications of a busy life" ---- I like that one - we could probably all right a book on that one.

Ruth sorry to hear you had such a bad nite! How is your face?

Hope everybody has a great day!

Hugs, Cathy

Today is another clear and sunny morning here in the beautiful Pac Northwest. The coffee feels so good. Now, if I was living on the water, my life would be perfect!

Linda, I hope you have a WONDERFUL time! And, don't think for a moment that we all are SO jealous!!!

Ruth, how is your face doing? Is the bruising going down?

Jenny, I'm with you....life is very busy and oh so complicated!

Pooky, have a good train ride and enjoy your weekend.

Cathy, congratulations for staying with the exercise this week! That's awesome!


My day is busy with more phone calls (trying to sort out getting refunds on non-refundable airline tickets) and running the proverbial ERRAND. Right now I've got to get dd to preschool and get back and make me something yummy for breakfast.

I hope everyone has a great day. And a happy day to all those to come this morning/afternoon/evening.

Hi all, remember me? It seems these days I only get to check in once a week. But I still think of you all everyday

I'm down 8 bls. now. I'm trying to exercise everyday, but only seem to get in 3 times a week. Can't wait til I break below that 200 mark! (only 2 more to go!)
I've been trying some low carb recipes and so far its been too much work and they arent very good.

Pooky, saw on another thread youve been down. GET UP! Remember, I opened a Curves and managed to gain 15 lbs! But everyone is right. You have to be in the right mindset. (And you all helped me get there!) Tomorrows a new day.

Have a great weekend everyone in case I don't make it back.

Been a busy few days with much paperwork and other business duties! Mostly just cleaning and organizing the ice house yesterday. My "manager", friend and confidant, Susie, was out of town for a couple fo weeks, I didn't have the proper time and the place was a mess! Looks nice now, all spiffy and freshly decorated! But someone stole my American flag! Can you believe it? We've had it hanging right outside the front door since Labor Day and in the middle of the afternoon, it disappeared! I am not happy!

LindaBC~~Hope you have a wonderful trip! I know I'm envious, I would just love to do some traveling.

Ruth~~Morning sickness and sympathy pains? Thanks for all you did for our extra Chicken Coop! I checked it out briefly...how nice!

Pooky~~<Hugs> to ya girl! Each day is a challenge AND a new beginning. That's why we're all in this together! How did I miss your Montreal trip? Hope it's a pleasure trip for you!

Jenny~~Thoughts are with you. I understand the complications of life very well. Please check in when you can.

Cathy~~WTG day three of exercise!! Have a good one!

Jenniwooki~~The proverbial ERRAND...another thing I can relate to and never seem to get them finished! Hope you got your airline tickets straightened out!

Mum~~Of course we remember you! Congrats on the weight loss! How's the new opening coming along?

For all to come~~
