I haven't caught up on post I just wanted to say ello , so ello!!

Morning ladies~

Katiecat~you got that right! I have the Dining Out Companion and the Complete Food Companion that I purchased at WW a few years ago. The points that Jane posted here for KFC, Arby's roast beef, & Wendy's Chili are a little off. This book has a few points difference, on the plus side. I haven't checked any other sites except Dotties and some still don't match up. So I just go with the highest numbers that way I am covered and don't go over. That is when I do do WW. I have all the stuff from when I did it and just follow it which instead of having a set amount of points and the extra 35 a week I go by the range and go with the middle number. Then also you could carry over your extra points so it is almost like the plan today. OOoooo, a blakc widow!! I would freak too! Bad enough that I hate spiders in general but I would totally freak if I saw a black widow! Hope there are no more. How is Tim liking his bike? Or should I say lovin' it!

Jane~can barely see you and Neal in the photo. But the trees behind you are gorgeous! I am glad to be done with Josh's closet! Man, I didn't think the kid had so many clothes! He's like me...he wears the same few outfits over and over. This weekend I am going to tackle my closet! Wish me luck! LOL Bet Katie will be a cute Alice in Wonderland! I thought about dressing up to give out candy, but then I do every year. This year though, just too much going on. We will barely get back in time for the trick or treaters and I will want to relax so maybe next year.

Angie~CONGRAT'S on the loss this week! WOW, that is AWESOME!!! I am proud of you! I don't know why Josh won't quit smoking. Just had this conversation with my mother about my dad. He had breathing problems over the weekend and the doc told him to quit smoking-he refuses! Stubborn man! But then he has been smoking since he was a young boy so it would be really hard to quit. Now Josh...has just been smoking a few years and being in the Army and not having one for what, 3 months now you would think that would be the last thing on his mind. Not sure why he would want one and then have to go back to not smoking again. If I could make him I would, but I can't so...not sure why he started because none of us smoke. Although, almost everyone in my family does.

Marti~I don't have yahoo. I was just trying to see Katiecats pictures and yahoo was being stupid. It was slow, then every time I clicked next it would go to a page that said I don't have access to that page. Then I would go back and click on another pic and it would be fine. Then it would do it again with the next picture. Even when I came here it was slow and the pages wouldn't come up. Would have to refresh so just posted a HI and thought I would try the next day. I have noticed certain times of the day it will do that. WTG on getting in a 50 mn. work-out on the gazelle!

Connie~love maple trees! As a matter of fact we have three in our yard. Two in the front and one in the back. The leaves are almost off and I am sad because they didn't turn the pretty colors before falling off. Maybe next year. Hope your back/hip is better today. Count me in...I too am a firm believer about the moon and weird things happening. Seems like people just go crazy.

Janet~I haven't been bowling in ages. Actually, I've never actually bowled, just taken the kids and watched them have fun. Would love to one day though. Not sure I could hold a bowling ball though. My arms are junk and can only lift certain amount of weight. I mowed the front yard Tuesday and got the blower out to blow the little bit of grass off the drive way and man my arm was killing me after that. They will hurt if I carry a water bottle with me when I walk too so I have to be careful.

Anyway...Hi to everyone else

Need to get going. Haven't gotten my walk in for the day yet and was going to get in the shower at 11:30. I slept in this morning even though I woke up at 7. Had planned on doing the WATP video but I am disappointed in those. I did the one mile and two mile with my pedometer on and was disappointed to find that the one-mile tape does not equal a mile walk as she says it does. The two-mile either. I kept up with them and even did extra and still, no 1 mile or 2 miles. So I am not sure I will do them unless I add the treadmill to the mix. Just going to go walking. At least I know I am getting what the park says it is. Anyway, I am headed to the mall to get my wedding ring(s) cleaned-every April and October and I kept putting it off so I have to do it today while I am thinking about it. Then I am headed to the park to walk. It is so cool out, only supposed to get up to 58 degrees and I love this weather. So...

Take care ladies and have a wonderful day!

Hiya Ms SusieQ! Was just getting off the computerand saw that you had posted and have to say HI! Must have been that KFC chicken! Just kidding And you are far from ugly and fat missy! And you stay away from those twinkies! Hope you have a nice day-gotta go for now.

Back again for just a few minutes. Need to go post on the get-together thread. Read the posts before I logged off earlier. Anyway, went and got my ring(s) checked and cleaned. Man do they shine-look like a brand new ring! Everything is fine with them. Didn't get the walk in after all because it was raining a little. Didn't want to chance driving all the way to the park and then it rain. Of course if was closer from the mall than here. Still would have been a wasted trip if it rained. So think I will forgo the walk today since it is so late and walk the rest of the week. This will be my free day instead of Sunday. Checked the mail and received a letter from Josh and am very happy to say he is going to be stationed at Fort Riley here in KS! Yippee! Even though I still won't see him much it will be nice knowing he is closer to home. He got a 4 hour pass last week and said he was going to go eat ALL the pizza he could! LOL Anyway...tata for now. Have a good one ladies!

Cristi - that's great news! I know that's where you were hoping he would be stationed.

Jane - great pic - can barely see you, but I can see enough. BTW - my WW points calculator gives me 35 flex points a week. And I have eaten mine for the week I like how you have made it work for you -


Ugh - no time to catch up...I started selling wreaths for DD's preschool today. They are beautiful, and I know people who like them, so it's not too bad. I try to sell UPS orders to my out-of-town relatives, then it's really easy. DD's school also has a silent auction and we were told yesterday that we would need to procure $500-$1000 worth of goods for said auction. By March. Yuck. I hate procuring. My previous plan of knitting things is kaput - no way I can get that much done. So now we are moving on to, hmm, I don't know, standing on a street corner with a sign?
