Hey Again Ya'll,

When I wrote the letter, I didn't want everyone to get paranoid and start worrying.We are ALL guilty of not making some kind of comment to everyone.There's just isn't enough time to do that. Also, I truly believe that everyone's feelings have been hurt from time to time. And I also don't believe that it was ever done on purpose.

I just wanted to make everyone know that we need to read all the posts and motivate & support each other. After talking to this person (persons), I was afraid that they would leave us.They are OK now!!!

Let's move on now......Subject closed! Let's get back to our fun-loving group!!

I'm leaving now for Debbie's.........Bye!!

BIG HUGS.............

Needless to say, I am also guilty of not being motivating enough to everyone. I love each and everyone of you, and if I offended anyone, please know I didn't mean to!!

Hey Gals...We all have been there done that, as Sher says let's leave it behind and move on with ourselves.

Hate to cut it short but need to run errands.

H/Birthday to those having one and those losing keep up the fantastic work and Please send it my way in Ky.

Vicki


A Friend is always there for you!!!!!!

Gayle - To answer your question, I'm only two pounds from my birthday goal! My birthday isn't until the 14th, so barring a total meltdown between now and then, I think I'll actually make it.

Good Evening all.

Sherry: I totally agree with the swimming suit issue. I haven't even let myself get into one in years. But you are doing great!!

Jennelle: You are doing to make that goal and then some the way you are going. Keep it up!!

I have been hanging in there myself watching my calories and food choices. I will weigh in tomorrow and see how I did this week.

Gotta run for now. Take care

Carol

SHELLEY.........HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope you have a super, fantastic day and that your family treats you like a queen!!!!!!



Love,
Ramona

I should never try and use the special features(like the large size) on this thing. I think it hates me!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU...HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR SHELLEY...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUUUUUUUU!!!!!!

Please share in wishing Shelley a very special day! Bring a gift or two for Shelley along with an explanation of the choosing of the gift.

Well, I'm off to pickup the gift from the gal in Canada, (lucky dog is headed for the Islands!) I will be posting it plus my gift here pretty quick!

Good Morning Everyone

I am leaving on a jet plane........I won't be back again........

Today is the big day. I am going to Jamaica. It will be a nice break. I am going to exercise my little butt off so that I don't gain any weight. Hope that you are all losers when I get back.

Have a very special birthday Shelley. You deserve it.

I love you all.

Til we meet again.

DEE

Shelley, I just picked up the gift to you from Dee. She sends her apologies that she can't be here to share in your special day!!!

Shelley I wish you a very Happy 49th Birthday. I picked the color purple to celebrate with you because it is a ROYAL treat to have you as my friend. You are always there when I need you. For your birthday I have decided to take you to Jamaica with me. Pack your bags and be ready to go tonight. We will have fun in the sun drinking Pina Coladas out of fresh, fruity pineapples with those fancy umbrellas. As evening falls we will dance the night away to Reggae with all the gorgeous black dudes centering their attention on your royal princess. To easy the pain of the tender tootsies and the aching muscles I have arranged a private massage with the man of your choice, in a candle lit straw hut. This of course is by the swaying palm trees and the sandy shores with the ocean breeze cooling your hot body. He will be your boy toy for the evening doing all that you command. Hope that you have an awesome birthday with pleasurabl e memories.

My wish for you is to have a happy health life. May all your problems be little. Hope you have a marvelous birthday.

Love DEE

Dee,

I hoe that you have a WONDERFUL & RELAXING trip!!!! Have a great time!!!!! I'm so jealous!!! I miss you already!!!!!

I guess we ended up posting at the same time!!!!

Shelley, here's a nice gift to you from me. It's a yellow rose because you are such a dear and a poem that best sums up our friendship.

Friendship Poem




I've nothing else to offer,
So,to you, it's love I'll send,
It's nothing that I borrowed,
And it's nothing that I'd lend.



It has no dollar value,
And it can't be overused;
It isn't fragile, so it can't break,
Though, often it's abused.



I've given it to others,
But each time it's unique,
I'ts meaning's always different;
It depends on what you seek.



It's something you can store away
To feel when you're in need,
But never is it on display;
It's beauty can't be seen.



I'm giving it "no strings attached,"
No costly warranty;
This love that I am sending
Has a lifetime guarantee.

ok....I did the sweet stuff...now on to a few words of wisdom that have helped me cope with the advancing of the years!

I am passing this on to you because it has definitely worked for me.
By following the simple advice I read in an article, I have finally
found inner peace...

It read: "The way to achieve inner peace is to finish all the things
you've started." So I looked around to see all the things I started
and hadn't finished.

So, today I have finished off a bottle of vodka, a bottle of red
wine, a bottle of Jack Daniel's, my Prozac, a small box of chocolates
and 2 litres of Stella Artois...

You have no idea how good I feel...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHELLEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great gift Gayle. Thanks for posting for me. I wasn't sure how much time I would have today.

Here is the link to where I will be staying. Please come and visit me and Shelley.
