What an excellent site Mindee, downright gives me the creepies.

I saw a few w/ this man's first name but they didn't seem like what Rach says about him. He is suppose to be 40ish, hispanic.
I guess the story is Rach and this friend of her's met him several months ago and he took a liking to the friend. Finally the story comes out that he has a criminal past and he was calling this girl leaving weird messages so she turned him in to his PO. He spent time in jail and just got out a week or so ago.

Of course I am hearing this for the first time last night as the phone rings and Rach freaks out because she believes it was him. Who knows what is true w/ Rach she is dramatic. I believe Beck though.

anyway - Gab is feeling better , so I am happy about that.

SusieQ~ I know what you mean! I checked that site out right when we moved in here and got internet because I heard it on America's Most Wanted. There was a guy that lives just across the parking lot from us! And the worst thing about it......he has kids in his apartment! I will have to check it again, but I don't think he lives there any more! You actually just reminded me.....I was going to send our office manager the link. She said that she had a one come into the office, and the owners son wanted her to rent him an apartment! (she said that the guy was completely honest with her about it all and that it was 20 years ago and it was his girlfriend at the time. the then girlfriend then turned around and said that he was molesting her and such. the owners son kept telling her "rent to him.....rent to him." she told him that she didn't have a place for him because there are kids in every building of the complex)

If he is stalking them....then turn him in again!

hello ladies...how are you all doing?

nothing much going on here......just getting some things done online before Brandon gets home. Both Marissa and Logan are laying down....so that is nice. I have been doing good with my eating (and not eating late at night), I haven't had a pop in a couple of days....so that is good for me! I am also doing good with my exercising as well! I have done it every morning since Monday, and I have lost some inches as well! I took my measurements on Monday, and then I retook them yesterday I believe it was, and already saw a difference!

Sassy~ That is a great song!!!! I hope your mom makes up her mind soon! Great job on your baby steps!!

Howdy ladies...

SUSAN...if the school isn't going to do anything I would contact the police...the guy creeps me out! I sure wouldn't want some creep hanging around the school and who knows, possibly following the girls. Gaby is such the cutie, lol!

MINDEE...I would never do the hot sauce thing or suggest it to anyone...was just saying what my brother did. But it did work, lol. Hey, WTG on the inches and exercise!

SASSY...well, hopefully your mom will make up her mind soon. I bet it is a hard decision though and you are right. I think it's a little different when your young than older. It's hard to leave a place you've been most of your life for sure. WTG on the NSV!

Hiya JULES, KATY, SUE, FRANCIE and anyone reading this!

Sorry for not making it here yesterday...time just got away from me. Had some errands to run and then spent the little bit of computer time I had on wedding stuff. All I have to do is order the kisses and I am done, well, sort of. I may end up giving Charlotte a shower if no one else is. I know her MOH is having a bachlorette party on top of raising a family and going to nursing school...don't know if she works too...but she is a busy lady! So I told her yesterday I would if no one is...ugh, why do I do these things? I know...because no one did it for me and she deserves the wedding of her dreams, almost the wedding of her dreams. She deserves to have one simple as that so...momma c will give her one but we have to do it soon! Yeah, like I said, it's not even my wedding but it is consuming my time. But it will be over soon so...

Didn't exercise today because my back is being stupid again and I am not going to chance it going out. I am being very careful. On top of it I twisted my ankle...just a mess here. And the eating isn't going so great because of all the running around. I know that's not an excuse but I am trying to eat the right stuff while out. Doesn't always happen so...I've got to get on track and stay on track or I won't be fitting in my dress.

Nothing special planned for the weekend...helping Charlotte with the invitations tomorrow and talking wedding and that's about it. I am hoping to relax on Sunday before it starts again on Monday. Anyway...

Hoping all is well with you ladies, and I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! Take care

*sigh Afternoon -

I made it! It has been a crazed day w/ no school for Gaby. Rach is being a lazy butt and sleeping all day.

Very sweet of you to support Char in the wedding plans Cristina -

Last night of swimming was yesterday. Gab will stay in Seals again, makes for the 3rd time but she made great improvements. Just anxious for the weekend to start and getting a break from Gab as she spends time w/ her father. He won't be back in town until tomorrow though.
I asked McD to postpone meeting his best friends at dinner. Mainly because I won't know what time Gab's dad is getting into town and I rather have him all to myself....haha, won't tell him that though. We have dated now for 3 1/2 months, where has the time gone??

Anyway - having tuna for dinner, laundry is almost done and I might take Gab swimming or to the Dr.Suess movie tonight.

Hi to everyone and I will catch up tomorrow!!

Hiya Susan!

Are the kids out for spring break? I'm thinking the kids are here...a lot were out of school today.

3 1/2 months already?! The time has gone by too fast for sure...doesn't seem like it's been over 3 months since you've been dating McD.

Try to have a relaxing weekend, I"m going to try, lol.

I hate the rain sometimes but this weekend it will be a little soothing, relaxing to/for me. Maybe I will get a lot of reading done.

Have a great weekend!

Good morning -

I managed to get back down to 162, yipeeee. I still have a terrible time w/ the munchies at night. Ice helps, I like to munch on that and break my teeth , no doubt. haha

I think it has been 3 1/2 months Cristina, course I am counting the 2 weeks we were just emailing - we began doing that first of Dec. Why do you want it to rain??? lol

Spring break is the week of the 24th here. I can't believe Easter is in March,when did that happen?? lol = space cadet. Yesterday there was no school so the teachers could work on report cards, I think that was it. Met w/ her teacher and speech lady and Gab will get 120 minutes a month now instead of 90 w/ the speech lady.

Taking Rach for a job interview this morning and she should get a letter in the mail regarding school, I hope she gets into the program! She would come out w/ her high school diploma and 70 college credits, did I say this before??

I think I will just go to Powells and buy Shopaholic ties the knot...been waiting forever at the library for a copy.
Oh, and Gab went w/ her father this morning. I miss her already. I really don't want to go out to dinner tonight. I rather read......lol - sheesh.....cheesebread or not. I wanna stay home!! I guess I could, huh?? Who says I have to go out every Saturday?? I don't. I have had Gab for a straight 2 weeks, I think I just want some alone time. argh,,,,,,as the world churns.....

k- chat at you all later!!

I suppose everyone else has a life, huh?? lol

Ok, I am back for a sec.....

Mindee - Great on the pop intake! Whenever I drink soda it is usually diet pepsi or diet sprite but I kind of like ice water lately. Hope the kids are doing well!

Sassy - It would be nice to have your mother be close to you. I hope she does decide to move.

anyway- went to the store and bought Rach some more Hummus?? I ate all of her's last night,,,,,it is so gross but I kept thinking it would get better and before I knew it I ate the whole container. haha

Went and bought Shopaholic Ties the Knot at Powells for $5.00, used paperback. I mentioned on another thread and it was deleted for some reason so I will write it here again. My favorite Shopaholic book was *Shop* takes Manhatten, I thought that was the funniest one. Anyway, I hope you enjoy them just as much Cristina.

Oh, Rach got into the college program! She starts March 31st. It will be mainly afternoon classes where McD is located, argh. I really wanted her over on this side of town but next Sept she will move over to a closer campus.

k- off to clean some and start my book! Chat later

Good Morning -

Sassy - Sure sweetie, type and run! lol You were on a roll. I never known men to be gossips -actually I have always favored men friendships over women because they seem more matter of fact and you know - simple.

Nothing new here. I read some of the Shopaholic book last night before McD called. I ended up going over to his frineds for dinner. Very nice couple, McD has known them for 20 years. We had a wonderful salad, salmon, steamed rice and of course cheesebread. Dessert was marion berry ice cream but I didn't have any of that, I just nibbled on my 2nd slice of bread.

Of course didn't weigh this morning - and went to Noah's for a onion bagel and w/ some turkey. Tomorrow I will get back on board and my goal is to reach 160 by Friday.

Claimed another week of unemployment and am just so thrilled. I really cross fingers for a job soon. Rach goes for a drug test tomorrow for her job, she was offered a job - did I say that? Good for her, I just don't want her overwhelmed w/ school and job all at the same time.

Better get, time is ticking before Gab gets home!!

Hi to everyone!

Golly Gee, you ladies have been really chatty!

nothing really new here.....just had a busy weekend! we took the kids to a custom bike show on Saturday, and then today we just stayed home and relaxed. I taped "I can make you thin with Paul McKenna" off of TLC. I haven't watched it yet, so I don't know how good it is.

It is 10pm and I am ready to go to bed! I went to bed last night at 12:30am and I felt great this morning! Marissa is still awake, but she is finally laying down now!! So, I am hoping that I can get into the shower and head to bed early tonight. I need to make sure that I get up early so I can get Brandon ready for school, get him on the bus, and make sure that I get my work out in AND shower long before the maintenance guy comes over to caulk the bath tub again!

Sassy~ You have a point about the men thinking that we are more gossipy then men!

Cristina~ My goodness you have been one busy lady! I hope you can get your back to cooperate with you!

SusieQ~ Has it been 3 1/2 months already? That is great that Rach got into that program and a job!

SusieQ- Yay for Rach getting into the college program AND a job to boot. Yeah, you are right to not want her to be overwhelmed with the job and school. But, summer is coming up, so she should be able to handle it. My DGD is 17 and works at Subway while keeping her grades up. She is a B student and also in a singing group. I think it is doable. Just make sure she gets her sleep.

Mindee- Hope you get everything done before the guy comes to caulk. Don't want him to catch you in the shower...lol.

Sassy- I hear ya about the haircolor. I had let my color grow out and was (mostly) gray for about 2 years. Decided to color again and I am wondering WHY. I hate the red color I got, and it is a hassle. I may go gray again.

Cristina- Hear ya about being stuck. Only in my case it is not so much stuck..it is gaining. I did so well last summer and got down to 164. I have gained 10 pounds with this up and down eating and stress level. Doesn't help that I quit biking cold turkey last year...my muscles are flab again. Geesh. Anyway, good luck to us both!

Just wanted to pop in and say good Irish morning to you all. It is cool and supposed to rain here AGAIN. I want to work in the yard...*whine*
