  • Hello Everyone
    How is everyone!!

    Daphne...I am so proud of you for doing Curves That is great that now you can fit into the BP cuff. I don't even try. Two places, I carry weight is on my arms and calves. (I couldn't wear a pair of boots..if my life depended on it...LOL) I am so happy that you are able to work out and that you are sticking to it. Are you still logging in to Fitday? How is everyone at your house? The kids? DH? What exciting is going on?

    Gayle...Miss ya...I hope you are well...POST SOON and let us know you are okay!
    Dana...what is going on in your neck of the woods? Are you still selling on ebay?
    Glen, Ann, Mavis...How are you all doing? POST SOON!!!

    I have completely feel off the wagon (and it has left me by the roadside...lol) I really need to get some of this off. I went out and bought some meal bars and instant hot oatmeal to keep in my desk drawer so that I am not tempted to eat "junk" you know...all the goodies from potlucks and bagels (they are 300 calories w/out cream cheese and of course I have to have either cream cheese or butter )

    Well ladies and Gentleman, It is tax time once again...and I am so excite about getting a refund. February, is the only time that I am truly happy because I have enough money that I don't have to worry about making ends meet Oh to be financially secure...LOL Speaking of financial security, I am trying to look for a new JOB. I have sent a couple of resume's out, but my job right now is so crazy that I hardly have time to breath, less alone check my personal email.

    I have to tell you, last week I was on the verge of quitting...dealing with the Big and Brian (the guy who took the marketing job I wanted). Brian kept sending me nasty, snide emails all week and cc: my boss Franceen. He wanted me to clean up a database and go through all the names....and he CC: the CEO on the request!! He was acting like I was stupid. I trained him on a database and he had the nerve to send me an email asking if I need help with entering names into the database he would "train" me. He is such a little sh!t. I mostly ignore his emails..and call and complain to my boss.

    Well, I have to get off of here and head home. I hope you are all having a good week!!
    POST SOON
    Deborah



  • hi dolls i love the new names daphne. it's going to be while to look like a hotty.
    tell brian where to go deb glen
  • Hi guys. Long time no hear huh?? I know for some of you, you had been getting emails from me every once in a while with updates but I thought I would take a few minutes to post on here as well. Nothing to say on the weight front except that I'm not really trying and not losing.

    As far as I know, I am still not pregnant but we have been trying since early December. It's something we really want and it's as good of time as any. (always helps those tax refunds like deb is waiting for). Anyway, once I do get any where on that you all will be the first to know. I know we make have jumped the gun but Kevin has already named the new addition. Boy- Breckin Cole or Girl- Brandie Paige. (had to be a "B" name to even up with Brett. There's always the chance that God doesn't have a 4th child in mind for me and if so, I have to accept that.

    I did our taxes last week and we're getting over $6000 back but have to pay $60 something for the prep fees with turbo tax. Still the biggest amount we've ever had. Kevin had changed it so that he didn't claim everyone on his paychecks but did on the return and you end up taxed more during year. Anyway, that will be here on Feb 4th and then we can get the ball rolling on our new home. Kevin has planned about $10,000 to $12,000 down on it. They run around $50,000 around here for 5 bedrooms and we're in a 14 x 65 and would like about a 28 x 65 or 70 which is medium for a doublewide but we're limited on space here in order to not have to tear down our fenced in front yard.

    The kids are doing well. Brett goes to dr. next wed. for his 3 month check up. His sugar is still too high at lunch. The guidance counselor called about 10 this morning and he was at 283 which was too high for a re-do on a math test. (brett told me that was easy) OOPs, he failed it the first go round which could be chalked up to sugar the first time as well. They are considering having him repeat 6th grade. He had a 62 halfway through the year in math and now he will need about a 77 average second half to pass. He has a 76.9 right now not counting the test he just messed up.

    I am still taking kevin to work everyday and soon hopefully, he will have something to drive as well. My car hit 80,000 miles this morning. i can't believe that already. It's 7 years old now though. We've discussed him driving the car to work and maybe getting a van or something for me. I used to have one and miss it because of all of the room but I am attached to my car which will be paid off in about 10 days.

    We are expecting a snow/ice storm starting midnight tonight and going through early sunday. 2 to 4 inches of snow and then about an inch or so of ice on top of that. They think we may be more lucky and have more snow than the first predicted ice they thought.

    i hope you all are doing well.

    Just briefly, daph, proud of you and the exercise. That's awesome.
    Deb, good for you on the resumes. I'll pray that it works out for you.
    Gayle, hope you are doing better. Are you guys in snow?
    glen, hope you are reaching your goals as well.
  • hey all sorry for not posting sooner. My computer blew up and I am waiting for a part. I hope it will be here today or tomorrow. I have had a off week and not doing well. I am posting at the library. I will post more when I get back online.
