Hi ya'll! Well, I'm back and back OP too. I don't know why I've been having such a hard time.
It all started when I let myself go nuts when I got pregnant. 60 pounds later, I gave birth, and ever since I've just had the hardest time getting back into the groove of things (it's been 19 months, yikes!). The longest stretch I've done so far is 2 weeks... Then I went nuts again for another two weeks, so of course any progress I made was quickly erased.
I think I'm right back where I started, but at least I've been OP for 2 days!
Today is such a beautiful day. I'm trying not to waste too much time on the computer because it's my last Wednesday off and I definitely want to make the most of it! Next week it's back to full-time work hours. Boohoo.
My DH just interviewed for another job yesterday... if he gets it, we'll be moving AGAIN. It will be a great move for us, but sooooooooo stressful! I think I'll be disappointed if he gets it, and disappointed if he doesn't! LOL
Well, let's see what I can remember:
Trish: I'm right behind you. My 31st birthday is in November. I figure since I'm one of the charter members of the 20-somethings (back in 1997 or 1998 on the old WW site until we moved here!) that the group can just grow old with me. I'm not leaving! Well, at least not without a return ticket.
Don't let that doctor bother you. Sometimes I think they forget to pack their bedside manner when they leave the house in the morning. You have to remember that they see 100's of pregnant women all day long so sometimes they probably get tired of answering the same questions day in and day out... Of course, that's their problem and not yours, so don't you ever feel bad about calling to ask a question! Oh~ and I can't believe you've had Ginger for 2 years already! I remember how excited you were when you first brought her home.
Kay: I'm so sorry to hear you got laid-off. What a blow.
Definitely focus on the positives in your situation. I'm sure that even though it doesn't seem that way now this will be a step in the right direction for you. Some old cliche about "for every door that closes another one opens" comes to mind. The economy isn't in great shape these days... lots and lots of layoffs I've heard about.
Rina: Sorry that you've been having some stressful times lately. Great that your DF is so kind.
Toyna: Ahhh to be a 7/8 again... my basement is full to the brim with my 7/8 clothes... casual, winter, summer, business suits, bathing suits... the works! Oh how I wish, wish, wish I could fit into them again! I REFUSE to get rid of them! Call me stubborn.
Though I did give away some of the short-shorts and short skirts. I figured now that I'm... well, in my 30's, I didn't need to be wearing things so short! LOL
Stacey: Poor Bailey! (I'm guessing that's your new dog, but I must have missed that post... what kind of dog is he/she?) I hope s/he recovers quickly (and I hope you don't catch the ring-worm, ewww!)
Sarah: Good luck shedding the couple of pounds needed to make you more comfortable. Are you going to WI?
Belle: I think it would be nice idea to help your friend out and play volley-ball with her. It sounds like she's had a rough time. Why such an adversion to the sport? Hope you find something to help poor Barney feel better. My cousin's dog has arthritis, I'm not sure what meds she is on now but she is MUCH better.
Kim: Sounds like you have a lovely meal planned for last night! I hope you didn't have to work too late.
Jen: Will you be able to find the time for the gym next week? It sounds like it really makes you feel better. Emma's gonna look cute with her two top teeth. I know how you feel though, Ben's cutting a couple more on the bottom and sleeping pretty restlessly too. *yawn*
Ok, that's all my memory is doing for me.
Talk to you all soon!
