Busy again I see... Hey, does this mean we can go past 50 posts?!
Just popping in for a few minutes. I've got to get dinner started and feed the doggy.
JULES...DD is 22 and I want to say the same, but...I think I've lost that weight over and over and over and over. For some reason it keeps finding me! But I am determined to get it off once and for all. Know how ya feel about the water...feel like I am drowing sometimes.
SUSAN...the slurpee story is cute! I am picturing little Miss Gaby standing there tapping her foot and pointing at you, lol. They are so cute at that age.
There you are Ms ELLEN...I was wondering where you were.
Funny, I haven't gotten much done today either, not even my exercise! Been on here most of the time except for when I went to get DS. And I have to go again, DH and son went to get his car and tow it home and will be back momentarily. Talk to you ladies tomorrow.
Night Cristi.
20 more minutes and I am out of here!
I am not sure about the 50 post. I do see some with 7/8/9 pages so assume we can do anything we want. lol
Gaby is just my sweetie. She is so funny and she talks now where I can understand her better. I made her a mac & cheese last night, she loves that. She will wake up in the morning and the first thing is "I want to go to the park",,,,lol wouldn't we all want that kind of life. Slurpee's and the park...
Susan--I agree -- 4 is such a cute age!! I wanna go to the park--no slurpees for me though...I don't think they will help the scales move in the direction that I want them too..
Cristina--I lose and then Dh gets insecure and I gain back--I did the Jack and pill diet when my Dad told me I was fat at 125 and should look like my 100 lb step sisters. I am doing this for me this time. I am not going to get depressed if the scale doesn't jump 10 lbs a week, I am not going to binge when I get upset and I am going to let hurts go.
Ellen--Missed you, I was really worried about you. I am glad your okay now that you got your Susan fix.
SUSAN TELL HIM TO GIVE YOU THE COMPUTER AND YOU WILL SPEND THE QUIET TIME ON IT THINKING ABOUT HIM I HAD BETTER SEE THE LIGHT I AM AFRAID OF THE DARK YOU KNOW , SO I AM COUNTING ON IT , CHAT LATER
This doesn't sound like the poem I remeber but it is sweet.
About how to live and what to do and how to be, I learned in kindergarten.
Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate-school mountain, but there in the sandpile at nursery school.
These are the things I learned:
Share everything.
Play fair.
Don't hit people.
Put things back where you found them.
Clean up your own mess.
Don't take things that aren't yours.
Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.
Wash your hands before you eat.
Flush.
Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you.
Live a balanced life--learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.
Take a nap every afternoon.
When you go out into the world, watch out for traffic, hold hands, and
stick together.
Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed in the styrofoam cup: The roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or
why, but we are all like that.
Goldfish and hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in the
styrofoam cup; they all die. So do we.
And then remember the Dick-and-Jane books and the first word you
learned; the biggest word of all-- LOOK.
Everything you need to know is there somewhere. The Golden Rule and
love and basic sanitation, ecology, and politics and the sane living.
Think of what a better world it would be if we all, the whole world, had
cookies and milk about 3 o'clock every afternoon and then lay down with our blankets for a nap.
Or we had a basic policy in our nation and other
nations to always put things back where we found them and clean up our own messes. And it is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go
out in the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together.
Susan--I think I remeber reading that somewhere. It's good!
Ellen--You don't ever have to be afraid of the dark when you have people looking for you with flashlights. I have several since I live in the woods and it gets really dark really fast and just like today I will come looking for you.
Hi Jules
Four is such a sweet age, oh to be that young again or at least have the kids that young again I would settle for that , they grow up so fast, still waiting to be a Grandma, maybe after my daughter gets married this Christmas I will be in the running. LOL I even bid on the most beautiful pair of baby girl booties all crocheted and covered in rosebuds and pearls they were of coure white with pink rosebuds, problem was someone jumped in and outbid me while I was sleeping Hey isn't that a movie title While I was sleeping or was it While you were sleeping, or possibly I just made the whole thing up
I went through the same kinds of things with my ex he would tear me down emotionally till I broke I spent a lot of time alone locked up in my room , hmm much like now ,but I can get out now To bad they just can't trust that our victories in life don't threaten the relationship if it is solid to begin with. That a girl Jules stick to your guns, you can do it , and doing it for yourself is the only way you will be successful. :hugs: Thankyou Jules I am doing a bit better its been a tough one , but glad we are all together I hope you have a great night chat in a bit :hugs:
*sigh* ok, I am back Ellen. Do you see the beacon. I have it attached to my butt - you should be able to see it in Canada- my butt is big enough.
jk.
I am at the ex's. I had stopped along the way for a mango slurpee. It was so hot outside and it sounded good,so I stopped and bought one. I had a tuna salad for dinner.
Gaby is cranky. She had all her clothes off when I got here. Her sister let her play in the bathroom sink and she got all wet - so the clothes came off.
Spoke with the older daughter and seems she is going through the angry stage now. F this and F that. She seems to realize she is staying another 2 weeks - her pleas have fallen on deaf ears. So now she is mad. I see her in the morning.
I remember the Jeff, Mary and Mike books Ellen. I think that was 1st grade.
Anyway, maybe I will take a fat stroll..... mean a fast stroll and be back later.
“True friendship is when two friends can walk in opposite directions, yet remain side by side.”
"Friends. A simple word isn't it? It's uttered everyday to almost every person imaginable. Who are your friends? I used to think that friends were the people that you could laugh and talk to. Now I know that friends aren't that, they're the people that touch ur heart. You could spend hours with them doing nothing at all and it can be the best time of your life, just because it was with them. They're the people you can
share your secrets with, cry with, laugh with, and just have fun with. They don't judge you or make you change. They accept you exactly as you are. They look at you and they see a great person, one they love spending time with. You all share something in common and are tied together by memories, tears, laughs and smiles. You're tied together by love for the other. Friendship is the strangest but greatest thing in the world. I find my time with my friends, the best times of my life. My friends are my heart, my soul, my fun, my laughter, tears, love and my life." -Kate Tierney
Mind if I come to Kindergarten... I like your definition Susan, I could use some cookies and cold milk and a nap..too.
I have one guestion though, this is still a 3fc site... so the moderators can still come in and do whatever cant' they? What if they don't like what you guys are saying? Even though your sign warns about food porn... isn't that a silly thing to call food talk? makes it sound nasty... which it isn't... right?
Christina,I was going to ask you why you are picking your son up from the side of the freeway, but you answered it already. My boys are all grown up and I still get calls like that.. in fact my ds#4 has my car again tonight. He had it from Jan. of this year till last week, now his newly purchased car is in the shop already and it won't be back till next week, so I am the lucky one who gets to loan him my car again. But that is what moms are for right?
Susan, so Rachel is going thru the angry stage now...don't you hate when they say *F* everything? And such young kids too. I must be really old or old fashioned or both..but I hate that word. To tell you the truth, and now don't laugh, but I was 22 and pregnant before I ever even heard or knew what that word meant. I guess I lived a sheltered life.
Anyway, I want to join your class and begin a new to lose weight. I am riding my bike every night, at least 5 days a week. But I just can't get in enough water. If it is warm enough at work I can drink about 6 glasses but if its cold or I'm busy I just don't get it in.. course when I do, then I'm up all night going to the potty. And coffe counts, its still liquid.. but I can't drink coffee, can't have caffiene or chocolate..but you can still talk about Snickers, it won't bother me...
Does your clipart not work Ellen? Did they censor your powers? In your pm's on here, can you get into where it says you have so many confirmed receipts for your messages.. I tried to but it told me I am not allowed in there.
Oh, Susan, one of my grandson's is 4, he comes up with some funny things. And my oldest dgd is 5, she likes to be the teacher and she can crack us up...she is so funny.. enjoy Gaby, they grow up so fast...and it's a long time between your own and the grandkids...
Ok - I'm in
although I have to warn you that my kindergarten report card said that I needed to stop kissing all the boys - yikes! I only kiss one these days - you are all safe :P
Since we can't look at you-know-what anymore, I thought we should look at the next best thing...
I'm off - have to go to my last board meeting for the preschool. I'm still on for Monday weigh-ins if everyone else is. Hopefully the next week will be better than this week...
K
SUSAN SERIOUSLY ITS HOT OUTSIDE, THATS SO UNFAIR mmm MANGO ,THAT REALLY DOES SOUND GOOD. YES I SAW THE BACON ,OH I MEAN BEACON IT WAS SHINING BIG AND BRIGHT SO IS LITTLE GABSTER TIRED OR JUST CRANKY OR TIRED AND CRANKY THE DAY HAS BEEN A COMPLETE WASTE AS WAS YESTERDAY. WHERE DID YOU STROLL AND DID YOU STROLL ALONE ???? INQUIRING MINDS WOULD LIKE TO KNOW I WILL SIT HERE AND WAIT FOR YOU TO COME BACK .KATY THE PICTURES ARE SO CUTE.
Actually I was thinking of having another baby (is that the brain freeze from the slurpee?- lol) I was - it is ok, I am dysfuncional (sp). lol I was even thinking of Mike as the father because Gaby could have a full brother or sister.
Ok, if someone wants to admit me now, I won't protest. lol....
It is very sad that she says the F word. I remember her as a baby , she was the prettiest thing. Always on the go and a smile on her face - getting in trouble.
I was sheltered too. My first boyfriend was my husband. I kissed 1 guy before that but otherwise I didn't know anything - at 25 years old.
Hey, does this mean we can go past 50 posts?!
DH and son went to get his car and tow it home and will be back momentarily. Talk to you ladies tomorrow.
I HAD BETTER SEE THE LIGHT I AM AFRAID OF THE DARK YOU KNOW , SO I AM COUNTING ON IT , CHAT LATER
