Thank you for all the wonderful birthday wishes.
I tried checking in in the morning but the site was down.
It was a busy and wonderful day. First off I walked to body sculpt with Dez and then jogged a mile on the tread mill. After we walked home in the brutal wind we got ready to be pampered at the Clarion Spa. I had an awesome massage by a very good looking hunk. Gayle I was thinking of you when he was rubbing me up and down. I just had to giggle and the thought of in the massage bed next to me instead of Dez. You would have enjoyed it.
We soaked in the mineral spa for a few hours and then headed home. As we jumped off the bus there was Larry at the corner. I got changed and we headed out to the Keg(dispite the name it is a very upper class restaurant) for dinner. My steak very good. While we were there I got a phone call from a customer of Larrys from Pennsilvania. He sang me happy birthday, he is a fun loving 70 year old womenizer but I love him and he has a soft spot for me. We stopped off at McPhilips Street Station casino to ride the Millennium. It was sold out so we came home and divulged in the rest of the Troblone Cheese Cake. It was a good pampering day.
I will try to get back here and post to you all. It is going to be a busy week because of my preparations for leaving soon.
Just pick yourself up and keep going. I decided to only weigh in once a month. 1nce a week is too disocuraging. I did finally get a scale!!!!
So is anyone else going through a tough time right now?
1. my sister's husband decided for her that they were moving back to clearwater 50 miles away to the old peice of ( excuse my french ) crap apartment , with the baby. I am so mad! my parents depend on them to help pay the bills and we are struggling enough with them here! I cant even go get my drivers license because my parents cant pay their car insurance right now and had to turn in the licence plates to the DMV untill they get insurance and they decide NOW??? Let me correct myself , HE decided now, and she said ok with no problem. Did I mention after they moved out I saw on the news that a piece of the celing had fallen out of the celing and hit someone on the head at their same apartment after they moved out!! and they are bringing a 2 month old baby there to live???? I swear my sister is so stupid I am kinda glad shes leaving !!!!! I cant even talk to her right now. The other day when i was upset about having no friends really she goes dont worry I will always be here for you, the next day I find out shes moving out!!!!! Also I know we are going to be struggling to pay bills to the point where things are going to get shut off where my parents are going to have to ask me for money for bills just so we can survive , ( which I dont mind , its part of being a family ..besides they already owe me almost 300 dollars from last year but the thing is I dont expect to ever see that money again ) all because she decided to move out earlier than planned !!!!
2. My grandpa is in the hospital at 86 , he has bone cancer so severe that they x-ray or mri couldnt even detect his bones cause the cancer had spread so baddly, so now my mom is struggling to find money for a flight to chicago so she can see him before he dies.
I know though that I will survive , I have had so much worse than any kid I know , I know there are kids worse than me , but I dont know them personally. I live my life with a struggle and when I hear things like this girl who turned 16 got a BMW for her first car and was complaing about the color or some kid say something like " I BETTER get a new Ipod for christmas " I want to slap them so hard and make them live a week in my life. I give my money i make to pay billls, I walk 2 miles home on the side of the road like a bum everyday , I work so hard in school and they have the nerve to act like getting a new car in blue instead of white is something to complain about! I know that because I live like I do , I will be so much more successful , and not have to have a reality check when I am 18 , cause even tho I am 16 , I deal with the stress of an adult and an teenager. They think cause they cant get something they want they should be angry and stressed, they need to try a day in my life!!!
Ok done venting .

allison- youlle be ok anyways just workout tonight.
4myself- ah oh well , i am not trying to lose weight I am trying to be healthy.
dee- glad you had a nice birthday.
Vouge you are one mature young lady. I know things are tough right now and it doesn't seem fair but God has a plan and he will take care of you. If you were well off you wouldn't have the compasion and knowledge you have now for families that struggle. Hang in there and God bless you.
Vogue-You are such a smart young lady! You will go far with all of your knowledge. Although things are tough at home right now, I'm sure your parents are really trying. Keep your chin up. The school I work at has kids that have no roof over their heads at all, and going from foster home to foster home. Be thankful for what you have and just keep being as wonderful as you already are.
Allison-Yay for the loss!
Ladies-I just want to tell you that everyone on the exercise thread last month did fantastic! I am so proud of everyone!!
Allison i need to be where you are haha.
Thanks dee and shelly. If I remember right no one was on the excesice thread 2 months ago , I guess I should start posting there.
vogue~last month was the first month that I posted on the exercise thread. I didn't make any of my goals, though. But it was a motivator. This month, I will continue to exercise, although not necessarily as often. I'm also adding some different things to my routine. Sorry to hear your sis is moving into that dump.
Im sick today but as soon as I get better I will be posting in there. You know 2 days ago when that girl sneezed ON ME! I should have instantly began to disinfect myself ahhh oh well makes no diffrence now.
Vouge-I am so glad to know your real name, now. I just read your bio. When you feel better, please do join us on the exercise thread. No need to make a goal. Just a nice place to workout together.
I haven't eaten after 8:30 for 4 nights now. I do wake up hungry. I guess that's good because that way I want breakfast, although I wait until 8 or 9 and have a bowl of oatmeal at work.
Shelley I heard that central Frorida was hit by a very large tornado last night. Did you get a big rain storm? Thank goodness it didn't hit where you live.
I weighed in at ww's yesterday and I was down .6 pf a pound. It sure doesn't sound like much compared to some 5 pound losses that we are having. I did weigh in at ww's a week and a half ago and I was down 1 pound. So that isn't bad. I will take a loss over a gain. I just hope that I don't gain to much on my vacation.
Well I have to go get ready for the Y one last time before I leave.
Shelley~I hope everything is okay at your house. That storm was terrible. I wonder if the people involved were able to afford THEIR home owner's insurance.
Dee~congrats on the loss! I'm down another half a pound, but it may be due to a very, very light dinner last night. I'll count tomorrows weight instead.
Vogue~I hope you feel better.
Cheryl~school must be keeping you busy. I hope your BIL is getting better
