As for MIL, I figure the guy gets the raw end of the deal. Actually, I don't care who she's with as long as she's not bothering us!!!
Dee- How far are you from Vancouver? I am thinking about joining Team in Training and try to raise enough to go to the Vancouver marathon May 1. I have to get $4500.00 raised for the Lukemia Society before I can go. I figure I'll give it a shot and see what happens. There are 2 teachers at school that are doing it and have talked me into it. I will have to come up with a letter to send out to ask for donations. It is such a wonderful cause, I think the effort will be well worth it, even if I can't raise enough.
What an awesome thing to do, Shelley!!!!!!! I hope you can raise enough to go...it will truly be a once in a lifetime experience! I know when I sat on the board of a civic organization, we had request's like this come through every so often. Most of the time we gave a substantial amount. You may even want to consider writing in your request~~a request to even help cover travel expenses etc. I feel most organizations will help out, even if they are not directly involved with the Lukemia Foundation. How about a fundraiser or auction? You mentioned a few other teachers involved, maybe you can get the paper to do an article about the group and advertise some type of a fundraiser. We get hit up all of the time with Steves business to donate for special events. Since you have access to a school, you guys have plenty of room for something!!
I sent you all (I think) a link to a neat site. The girl has lost over 30 pounds and offers all kinds of info from product reviews to helpful hints. I was impressed with it once I started going through all of the information. I was going to post the link here, but didn't know if it was allowed or not.

shelly,i hope things are looking up for you at home!
love your new picture!
well as for me not to good.
i guess im to emotional rite now but feel i need to talk to someone!
no brian never made it up to me,
we hardly have sex anymore because he says im to fat!
even tho ive lost weight!
i got on the puter and found out he been watching porno.
i feel betrayed!
i know most guys do it but i cant compete with that!
i try very hard to stick with things as far as being op,but im stressing,
he didnt want to talk bout it didnt say he was sorry,all he said was delete it.
i dont know what to do!
i want to rip his face off along with other parts.
we have been married almost 17 yrs.
ok but listen to this he is telling me its because im heavy and i have gained weight there ok but im on the pill even tho im older now but my pills went up so bad i couldnt buy them,terrified to become a mom again i toild him he had to wear a condom,
he refuses since then no sex,i think its because he has to wear one and my weight realy has nothing to do with.
but still the same.....
i asked him if he was cheating he said no i believe that cuz he leaves for work in the nick of time and gets home on time,he doesnt leave once he is here if he does i hafta go with him or he wont go!
i homeschool as yall know and i have bad flareups with my hands and feet and sometimes cant keep up with the housework,
but other than that im good to him.
i make sure his supper is ready when he gets home at 1am.
pay all the bills ect. he just goes to work.
i know he loves me in his own stupid way,but im hurt and he acts like its no big deal.
friends...
am i reading to much in this?
do i dismiss it and go on,or what?
he is quiet by nature ,im not!
its not helping me to feel this way,i cant concentrate on staying op and excercing!
what i want to say to him would be hurtful.
ok ill lose this weight ,be the bomb and what the **** makes YOU think id stay with you!
i feel like saying remeber these days cuz when im like 75 pounds lighter make sure your treating me as crappy as you are now!
i dont know what id do if i lost all this weight and he became a sweety.
im still the same person!
im sorry for all the venting,just feeling a little lost!
doni
Doni: What a mean thing for your husband to say to you! Weight doesn't make a person. You are the same woman he married 17 years ago!! Weight doesn't change that!
I would feel betrayed the same as you if my hubby was checking out porn on the computer. If fact he did do it once about 5 years or so ago and we had a long discussion about it. He no longer does it anymore. He really didn't think he was doing anything wrong.
You sound like you treat hubby pretty darn good. When your arthritis flares up he should be more understanding about what you can and can't do. I definately understand that with me having arthritis too. My only problem is that I don't have flare ups, mine is constant. Every step I take is painful. I am not sure what my answer is but still looking for ways to feel better.
Sounds like you may be right about hubby making excuses for not wanting to use condoms and he is blaming you instead of taking responsibility. That is cruel. Your gonna be one skinny momma one of these days real soon and then he will be sorry for treating you so badly. He will jealous of all those guys looking at you!!!
Thanks for feeling like you could vent to us. We are here for you.
You have a great day!!!
{{{HUGS}}}}}
Since I have been so bad about posting lately, I am going to try to post to each one of you individually over the next few days. No one liners. Real posts!! I will be back to post more later.
Doni-I'm sorry, but I think your husband is an absolute jerk! There is absolutely no excuse for the way that he treats you and you deserve better than that. Sounds to me like he is blaming his own sexual deficiencies on you. I think you should print out our answers and show them to the fool (sorry-I know you love him, but it makes me sick to hear the way you are being treated.)
Gayle: I am so glad Allison's test results came back okay. Sounds like maybe she is finally on the mend. It is so scary when our little ones are ill and we don't know what we can do to help them. She is such a beautiful girl. I loved the picture of her.
I can't believe you have snow!!! OMG does that mean it is official winter??? I guess I will have to start my Christmas shopping now!! :lo
How is your new WOL? I am still struggling, but hanging in there. Can't give up the fight!!
Carol, I'm staying OP, but it is a daily struggle...visions of "sugar anythings" dance in my head.... this was the one kind of snow I like! It snowed and was gone by the next morning!
Allisons second blood test came back today, her count is still up, so now he put her on another antibiotic for 5 additional days. Her count should be 10,000, first time it was 20,000+, this time 11,000+, so it is gradually going down. The doctor is still leaning towards a bacterial infection of some kind.
Shelley, thank you for commenting on my turkey! I figured it might motivate me through Thanksgiving!!
Are you guys ready for Christmas? Done any Christmas shopping yet?
