No, not snowed in but because of the snow life has been different. LOL

Sounds like a lot of fun making your own dog sled, Rosey!

My Jim was coming home from work last night and had a accident on our very own street. Lost control of the car and landed in a ditch at a neighbors house. He is good, but the car may not be. :(

I have been trying to send you a better photo of Elena and one of her many snow men. LOL

Enjoy!

I am glad that your weekend was good Rosey.

Congratulations on your loss, Glen. I don't need to post any more losses. I'm hoping that I can stay where I am for the rest of my life. :dunno:

My surgery on my elbow has been changed for the 22nd of March.

Not much going on except getting ready for the trip and watching my impulses where food is concerned.

I wonder what is going on with our group. Is the interest gone? Are we not needed any more? I know I still need each of you very much.

Hope to hear form you all soon.

Donna

Hi guys just a brief post for me. Although I have internet call waiting on my computer, I've had some problems with more than one person calling at the same time which would give them all a busy signal apparently. Anyway, Logan had to come home on friday from school and they called my grandparents and then my mom and then she walked down here to tell me about it. No one bothered with my cell phone and found out that in the office at school the cell phone number wasn't on anything in the office. Evidently only the nurse had it and she doesn't work there anymore.

Then there is the issue with the blazer still in the shop. We never heard anything and then Dh called them this morning. They said they worked on it until 10 pm saturday to put a new distributor on it and it still won't crank. He's suppose to call back later. I have to go to greenville tomorrow for Brett's endocrinologist visit. Dont really see anything new changed there but who knows. Our 5th grade trip to alabama and tennessee is fast approaching and i"m nervous. We leave on the 31st and I won't know anyone there. I know brett will take up with some guy friends and leave me hanging like the new kid on the block. I'm sure you all know that feeling.

Donna i know you're excited for your bahama trip and I know you will take some beautiful pictures but remember when you post them, we want to see the front of the bikini and not the "thong" backside. :lol: BTW, I still need our group here so dont anyone go anywhere.

Rosey sorry you've been alone on here again. I was trying to stay offline due to the call waiting issues. Dh is home today as well and has been all weekend. He returns to work tomorrow with or without that blazer. I'm glad you had fun with those grandkids and your shower. :lol:

Summer hope you're ok. I will post later on. Have a good monday.

I need our group tooo...Don't anyone go anywhere. It is just mid-terms and after tonight I should be back to normal. Please know that I need you all. I love you all too. Donna..I hope not too much damage sone to car, but glad Jim is ok. Way to go on the losses Rosie and Glen! :)

I am so proud of you.

Will write a novel tomorrow and fill you all in after my exam tonight.

I will catch up on any posts in a few minutes but wanted to tell yall something that happened really crazy here over the last 2 hours. DH noticed someone coming on our porch and it was a sheriff. He wanted the description of our neighbor. After we told him he said that he was wanted in a very bad hit and run accident. There were 4 cop cars over there with the blue lights on and it was nearly dark which made it all really nervous to me. I'm still shaky.

They towed a truck that was over there that was seen in the accident but what we never could tell the cops was that truck didn't belong to the guy they were looking for and we don't know who's truck that was. Anyway, we could see the cops searching under the home and eventually they came through one end of the trailor and walked all the way through with flashlights. They didn't find anyone. Well about 30 minutes after they left, the guy they were looking for came home just about a 10 second visit and he drove off. It's all really crazy but was certainly eventful. I am afraid something may happen after we go to bed.

Nothing much else to report here but thought I would see if anyone had been back in since lastnight. I have to get ready in a bit to take brett to that dr. It's raining here so I want to allow traveling time.

Update on the family next door, it wasn't long after the cops left that every light was on in their house. I use the word "house" with caution. What they live in is actually 3 old single wide trailors back to back that they made into what you would actually refer to as a shack. Not to degrade but that's what it looks like. Well anyway, we live parallel to it so when the cops came through on the opposite end of it at night, we could see it from our bedroom window. Anyway, the whole family is home including the boy they were looking for. I don't know if maybe they heard it on their scanner and got scared and hid or if they don't know anything at all. At least if any cops come today, I won't be home until after noon.

The blazer is suppose to be ready to pick up $530 later. They changed the distributor cap, put some kind of button on it that relates to the oil and gas getting together and changed the plugs. I asked him for that price did they fix his powered windows and make him a key to unlock the doors. Besides having 117,000 miles on it, that's what else is wrong. Other than the tires, motor and transmission, everything else on it is new now. Well accept for the alternator.

Summer I certainly sympathize with you and the car situation. I had to take DH to work this morning before I could get the kids up and ready for school. I hate to leave them alone like that but thankfully I can get him to work and back in less than 15 minutes. Of course a lot can happen in that time but my grandparents live right up behind us and when mama is home, she lives between me and my grandparents.

Donna I hope that your car isn't bad. Let us know what you hear. I guess if I were you, I wouldn't even think about it until after your trip. Don't let anything keep you from having your well deserved relaxing vacation. So i guess you're setting the standards: if we get to our weight loss goal, we get to go to the bahamas?? :lol: Well girls, if that's not a huge incentive.

Congrats on your losses glen and rosey. I had a 1 pound gain last week and need to fix my signature to reflect that and then tomorrow I weigh again. I didn't do pilates yesterday but I hope to do more of that real long workout. I made it 40 minutes last time and my muscles are screaming nearly as bad today as they were sunday.

Well I need to really get off here. Brett is home and wants me to see about spending his toysrus card on the website to order something out of stock in the store and I need to eat a bite and get ready. I think me and him will eat at Sonic on the way home this afternoon but SHH! you didn't hear that from me! :)

Hey guys... Just dropping in will write a long post this afternoon.

You guys, I'm sorry but this post will not be a very personal one to each of you. I am so busy getting ready to leave tomorrow but did not want to leave without saying goodbye! :wave:

Anyway, I hope you all have a good week!

BTW, I DID buy more clothes. One suit but no thong... sorry. :sorry: :rofl: We will be taking pictures.

I'll try and post on Sunday but most likely it won't be till Monday. Please all take care!

Love,
Donna
