Hi Folks!

I'm in Denton, headed to Houston. DH is on his way to Toronto.

Sandra, you ARE special and we were delighted to see you and Curtis. Chickies, Sandra's garden is beautiful!!!!

We have bought a house! We close in Toronto in late September and close in Denton in early October. DH will stay here, I'll work in Toronto until mid-December and stay with a friend. I'll fly back and forth a few times too.

We are so excited, of course..a new phase of life is beginning.

Welcome to the boards Choices. Good luck to you.

I've been pretty good here. I've taken some walks and watched my diet. I haven't had chicken fried steak even once. I had 1/2 cup of ice cream twice. I do not feel deprived either. Of course, how could I, with buying a new house and seeing people I love!

I'll catch up with everybody soon...where's Coco?

Rhonda

I had the same question, too? I hope Rhonda and Sandra are close together. I'll bet they would have a great time together. I'm still snotty, but feeling a little better. It is amazing how bad your whole body can feel when your allergies are acting up!

Rhonda-congrats on your new house. I'm so excited for you!

Sandra-I'm glad you aren't having allergy problems. Did you get to knock on that wood?

Paula-Can't wait to see the pics of DD's first day.

Maryann-I'm glad the weather is nice. It's pretty cool today here also. I hope Leo is feeling well.

Vickie-I'm sorry you are feeling bad. I, too, am using the allergy excuse for bad behavior. I need to stop it! Feel better

GTG fix some dinner. Have a good night chickies!

Hi there, Chickies. Rhonda and I will be around 75 miles from each other. (And it's interstate most of the way!) Life is good.

Paula, I'll bet dd enjoyed herself today at school. Curtis is my husband but he'll be busy this fall, too. ::

Vickie, did you do your exercise? I haven't been doing much at all, but Curtis has gone to the club to exercise every day I've subbed. Another couple of plusses of subbing----he's exercising and I'm not snacking.

Rhonda, I am soooo happy about your moving to your new home and am looking forward to keeping I-35 hot!

Sloan, I guess I got to the wood in time. So far so good. I did have a tiny headache today but it passed.

I'm still op.

VICKIE-You're doing great in the exercising dept.I have to start going out doors now that the weather is so nice. I going to walk after my noon dinner.

RHONDA-CONGRATS on buying a new house. That great,where is Denton on the Texas map????????? Wasn't good in Geography.


SLOAN-Like I told Vickie I going out and get some walking done now the the temps are cooler. Leo is till having good day and than bad days. We're going to the doctor tomorrow to see what the lung specialist and he came up with what kind of treatment will be best for Leo.

Hey chicks! I had a very frustrating day with one of my classes. I've got to make some changes. There are 7 out of 16 students that have or need special ed services, so it is very trying!

I just got home and have so much to do. I'd better get off here. TTFN

Good Morning Ladies

We have another crisp day for walking and I will be out this morning.Nothing new,except this is my third day on the L/C plan and I'm finding easier to say no to high carb foods.

SLOANE-Sorry that you had a hard day at school. My sister used to be a teacher and she had the same problem with the special ed students.Hopefully your days ahead will become easier as time goes by.


RHONDA-Thanks for the geography lesson,Hope you will be happy with the move like I was when I moved to the Cape. Glad that you stayed OP while attending a family gathering. Going for BBQ ribs this Labor Day Weekend but I'm putting my low carb BBQ sauce on it so it won't be to sweet,so the calorie count will be down and I shouldn't gain this weekend.


Have to go,will be back later on in the day.

Maryann, thank you for the compliment of calling me Rhonda. :congratulations: to you for staying low carb.

Hi, Donna. Hope you're having a good week.

Vickie, how are you doing?

I'm still op. I'm making some oven-fried pork chops and oodles of veggies for lunch. Then a young man is coming over for math tutoring for a big upcoming exam. (I have been studying so I can help.)

I'm feeling like my brain is getting exercise even though my bod isn't.

Hi All:

I'm now in the Houston area for a few more days. Sandra has answered the geography questions and clarified that I'm not her husband's wife.

I've ready everyone's posts but won't respond individually. I'm on wireless and typing on a small keyboard also.

Sandra, keep doing the right thing. I'm behaving myself totally. I'm eating lots of salads and seafoods. I took a long walk yesterday and might, just might, go to the in the hotel today.

I'm having fun, but am ready to get home to Toronto and pack!

Rhonda

Rhonda, it's great to see you here. I'm envious your being in the Houston area. We always look forward to seafood when we're there. Have you been to Kema Boardwalk? I'm thinking The Aquarium is the name of the seafood restaurant we liked there. Congratulations on making healthy choices.

I'm anxious for you to get home and start packing, too. Life is good.

Hey y'all. Things were more quiet at school today as about 400 of the students were at a special activity. I have thought through some of the issues I had yesterday, and I think I have a plan. It's really a learning experience with this new curriculum for the students and for me! I am totally off program. I'm looking for that wagon to come back around and pick me up. Sounds like Sandra, Maryann, and Rhonda may already be on it, so hopefully I'm next.

I'm gonna be like Rhonda and say that I, too, have read all of the posts but won't respond to them individually. Just know that I'm thinking about all of you and hope you have a great Labor day weekend. I'll check back in later. TTFN
