Hello- Hey gang.... Been missing you all lately and thought I would pop back in. Maybe set a goal or two and see if I can get my sorry self back to the beach. I am in hopes that my towel is still around under the sand somewhere. I am sure it will take me a few days to get caught back up on the beach world. And meet all the chicks that I have not meet before and catch up with all the familar ones I still see here.

Schmoodle, sorry about your headache. I hope it clears up soon! Best thoughts to your daughter for her interview!

Chelby, maybe you can just turn the heat down and not all the way off? Loved the pictures!

Sophie, in that episode of Friends, Phoebe tells the others she never learned how to ride a bike, so they buy her one (pink streamers and banana seat and all) and Ross is trying to teach her to ride so he lets go when she's going well and then she realizes he's let go and she crashes and gets mad at him. The last scene of the show is her on her bike, with training wheels. Very funny!

Rose, what play is your daughter in?

LC!!! Hey! How's life? I found your towel when I dug mine out a couple weeks ago, so you're all set. :)

Hello old friends! I am back! ;0) off to the grocery this afternoon to get all stocked up, then I will try to catch up!

It feels good to be "home" !

Hey Rikki! Why did you go gluten-free? Were you having health problems?

Hi Kara! I feel like 10000x better when I don't eat gluten... at first I thought maybe I had an allergy to it, and maybe I do just not as severe as I thought before...
I cut out dairy, gluten and anything artificial for a few weeks and man I haven't felt that good in forever... but for some reason I know it and can't get back into doing it anyway... so I mostly try to not eat gluten, dairy, and I am still trying to not eat the stuff I can't pronounce and splenda and such...

I read ultrametabolism by Mark Hyman and thats what kickstarted it. So much was relieved when I cut that stuff out- my back pain, mood swings, stress... it was unbelievable! and here I sit telling you how great it was and still struggling to do it!- I suppose that should be the unbelievable part!

I'll have to go back in and change my siggy soon...

Oh OK OK OK.

Moozle.

Does my tickie say 125 still? Cuz that's what I am. I've been a yo-yo. 52 days til Key West and 10 lbs to lose. Oy.

So I'm here! Working the late shift today at work 10:30-7:30. Going to have homemade split-pea soup when I get home. Mmmmm.

Oh and HI KARA!!!!!!

That is all.

Lisa

Kara - the episode sounds like a riot. Hubby here has always joked that he will buy me an adult tricycle. We use to see an older lady riding one around the neighbourhood.
Welcome back little chick and Rikki.
Going out for the day tomorrow.
take care
Sophie

HELLO THERE! I am back.... and so glad to be back.
Boy do I need this! :-)

LISA! How are you??? Why are you going to Key West?
