I'm Back.......

Halloween damage continues with 2 boxes of Dots and 1 M&M mini bag,,,,,not bad! I think I should just throw the rest away....course it is Gaby's stash.....she likes to share. lol ugh.

Jules - Hey sweetie!! How you doing today?? How was the doctors visit??

Cristina - How is the tooth?? Hope you were able to rest.

Sassy - How old are you?? You have a young mother, mine is 64. It is a good thing you have her close to you.

I was at the VA today and realized I was standing in the exact same spot when the doctor told me in May 06 that my father wasn't going to last the rest of the day, that he was dying. oh....I miss my father.

Ex is doing well and Rach is home! She won't tell me what she has been doing.

Need to get Gab ready for her fathers and it feels like a good weekend to just rest!!!

HUGS to you all.

Cristina--glad the dentist visit went well!!

Sassy--the fast food was calling my name but I passed it by...glad you and hubby will be working a schedule that allows you to see each other more. It must have been rough at first when you went off working the same shifts.

Suzyq--Ry was a handful from 16 - 18. Skipping school, which he eventually quit, and all kinds of other stuff. He did end up gettting his GED and actually talking a couple people out of quitting school. He would disappear for days at a time. He eventually straightened out for the most part. Teri says he is drinking alot again. I hope he doesn't start getting in trouble again, with all the drama with Teri & Dave, I don't think I could take having to worry about him too. When he was going through his teenage angst Teri never got in trouble...then he straightened up and Marshall broke Teri's heart and all heck broke loose with her...I think they are going to both drive me batty!!

Sue--I worry about getting everyone bummed out when I am having trouble, but I have found that we all have our ups and downs but we are all also here for each other!!

Katy--how are you lady!! Hope you like that pizza crust!!

Love you all!!

Suzy--the older guy in a computer dept says he didn't have many kids come by his house so he is going to SHARE his candy with us girls----NOOOO!! Hopefully by Monday my TOM chocolate cravings will be at a manageable level--I may have to "share" mine with others!! Glad Rach is home!!

omg- I think I am going to cry. I don't ever remember being 33....*sniff....that was way long ago. Wow, Sassy.....you're a young lass
I am glad you got some sleep. I need to go get some myself. You know, I am blessed, I have a wonderful step father. I always loved the men in my family from my grandfather, pastor and dad. I always felt loved by them. It was a very surreal moment in the hospital today. I can feel my father there.

Jules - I thought you were talking about some pervert computer guy. You mean a co worker?? Gotcha! lol
Dots are the bomb! I usually don't crave chocolate, I think it is the nuts in the bars that I am after. My TOM is almost over, thank goodness.

So, yes. Rachel is home. I guess I will just have to have one child that takes the rough road through life. My sister really wants her to come over tomorrow and spend the weekend, it might do them both good.

Gaby went with her father tonight. Ick. omg, he annoys me!! He pouts and whines and I asked for some $$ for some clothes for the Gabster and instead of just forking it over he wants to go with me. Gag. I really want to just go by myself I don't need him and Gaby trailing behind me . I know her size and I know what I want.......and its not spending time w/ him. lol .......but if that is the only way , I guess we are going shopping together. Oh, joy.

I guess I will go crawl in bed and call it a day.....put an end to this misery,,,lol.....Monday is WI!! Looking for 167....cross fingers!!!

HUGS to you all

It's Saturday!!

Cristina - Hey! You ever waking up from your nap?? Miss you Hope you and Josh are having a super day .

Sassy - grrrrr. I didn't like training people at my last job! It really takes a certain personality to do that and I don't have a personality - lmao...You are still young for children! I am 43 and would love to have another one. I had Gaby at 37 and really I think you have so much more patience as an older parent.
I have no patience w/ her father though - haha. I don't know what his thing is but if she needs clothes I don't know why we all have to be miserable in the weekend shopping madness. I enjoy going by myself and never take Gab if I can help it. Certainly don't wnat to take him - lol

k- I am off to see the other ex in the hospital who wants me by his side. I don't know....what is it about me?? Do I smell good?? Everyone wants me around...lol ....argh. I still have pressure in my eye ball from the other day at the hospital.

I had a turkey bagel for breakfast, it was delish! I really need a walk sometime today.

anyway - just my quickie!! HUGS to you all !!

Hello ladies...

Feel so sleepy...I think those drugs are still in my body making me feel weird...just want to sleep. Of course it is time for another pain pill. Trying not to take too many...just suck it up.

SUSAN...glad Rachel is home, the ex is doing well and sorry the other ex wants to shop with you, ugh!

JULES...glad Teri and the baby are well.

SASSY...hoping your mom is able to get down to live with you guys. Good job on getting all the bad food out of the house.

Hello to everyone else

Nothing much going on here today. I am hoping I feel better tomorrow...supposed to be nice, in the 70's and my plan is to go to the zoo. Just to get out of the house for a while.

Did someone mention TOM, ugh? TOM decided to pay a visit here as well...the day I went to the dentist...wish he would just go away for good already, lol.

Getting some laundry done and reading. Going to finish Night today and then start on Eat Pray Love.

Have a great weekend ladies!

SuzyQ--maybe the Halloween treats are oozing out your pores and the ex's are smelling all the sweetness!!! Good luck shoppings with Gaby's dad--at least Gabster will be there too--and I think it's nice that you are there for the R's dad.

Sassy--I actually don't mind training people, except that type. I don't know what Dave is thinking---the boy has no common sense at all!!

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!!

Cristina--finishing up on my tom--I am awaiting the last one!! Glad you are feeling better.

Okay back again for a few minutes before I sign off...was reading some other threads and working on my siggy. New weight ticker...and I am going with my starting weight rather than my highest weight ever, or a 20 pound goal. So this is/was my first goal. Forgot to weigh last week and the 189 was what I was at two weeks ago...so hoping it is at least the same...who knows. The way I have been eating, to top it off TOM and Josh being home we have eaten out a couple of times. But the last three days have been great eating days. If you call barely eating good eating. Just haven't been able to eat much...the tooth hurt so much it wasn't even worth trying. Anyway...here's to a good WI!

JULES...thanks...I am feeling better but for some reason so darn sleepy. Hope you are having a good weekend too!

Take care ladies

hmmmm, seems Tom is visiting all the chickies.....he needs to just stay home and mind his own business!! hehe

Jules - Cute, Jules! I don't need to eat candy to smell sweet - haha. Argh. I was all set to let Gab wait 2 weeks when I get paid again. I hate asking for money and I hate that when I do he doesn't hand it over. He needs to come with me.....big baby...and he won't shop with her by himself. What pain in the arse! I did go to Gymboree for a sec at the mall, the cutest things and I saw some boots for $44 that I want to get Gab.

Cristina - I am glad you are awake!! lol ....love the siggy Hope the pain goes away asap!! 70's sounds wonderful!! Talked w/ Hawaii Man and it is 80's there - grrrrrr. Have fun at the zoo

I spent all day up and down to the hospital, I am exhausted but Ex is home safe and sound. I guess I will make one more run to the store and get him some groceries in the house. After that I am going home!

The R's have been horrid fighting with each other and with me. They call me horrible names like.......hmmm, wow....I don't think I can write any of them....just makes me sad. Beck did call me *bi polar*.....because of my driving. I said "hey look little brat I have driven for over 20 years I know how to drive, you don't......you watch your mouth" .....omg- she is so disrespectful......lol....

k- eating is good today that is one good thing!

hmm, see I don't think I have ever craved bacon Sassy. lol .....actually eggs sound good all of a sudden. I love scrambled eggs
I love my R's. They were horrible today though.
We went to the mall for clothes shopping and I drove to a Wells Fargo for the ATM in the parking lot. I get the $$$ and drive out , against the arrows and Beck goes "you are driving the wrong way".....I reply "Beck....chill, on the weekends you can drive anyway you want in the parking lot....." lol ....she totally comes unglued and starts saying what a bad driver I am and how I drive bi polar.....whatever that means.....and so the girls start bickering about how I drive and I start getting really annoyed. I am tired and the mall is the last place I want to be.....and it goes down hill from there.....
It was not a good day.
I did call Gaby's father and he asked if she needed clothes and I said yes she needs clothes and he wants to know when I want to *do it*....I said I would rather *do it* by myself, that dragging Gaby around is no fun and I would rather *do it* on my own. He said he could *not do that* and he would get her clothes that she needed.
I almost started crying..........ugh, omg..a 52 year old man shopping for my princess......just stop the friggin world and let me get off.....lol
So, he wants a list of things she needs and the sizes......blah ,blah.....I am not excited about this at all. I am just thinking until the 15th when I get paid again and I can go buy her cute clothes and boots that I want her to wear.
anyway - whatEVER,,,,,I totally can not stand the man.
I said we can meet half way tomorrow and he says he doesn't like that idea. He likes bringing her to an actual place instead of meeting at the park or library......hmmm, actually I don't like him coming in my home. I just want him away from me.
He asked about my medical stuff and I didn't say anything and he goes...."I just want to be able to pray for you"......lol.......ya, right. I don't trust him worth his spit in China.....hahahaha......

Ok,,,,,back to weight loss......lol. I did good on eating. I got into my *skinny* 8's today!. It is still tight though , thinking another 5/10 pounds before I can wear them.

ok, adios!!

Hugs to everyone!!!
