Default Rainy Dreary Saturday

Well it is not a great day here today. We are the Sunshine state but there will be no sun today. But I prefer the rain to all the snow some of you are getting.
It is almost time for elections and if you are a member of a chapter that needs people to fill positions give it some thought. I know most come to see what TOPS can do for them but if people don't help you can not have a good chapter. I am so blessed to have so many people willing to help. It is rare. I have been leader when I got very little help and it gets to be a burden. Even with help I am always busy doing TOPS stuff.
If you can't hold a position you can certainly help out those that do.Ask what you can do to help. We can't leave anything where we meet so some ladies help me by taking care of some things for me so I don't have to lug so much stuff back and forth. You'd be surprised how many little things you can do that makes the load easier. So please get invloved in your chapter.
Well I will get off my soap box now. I have to go exercise. Since I got sick I have got out of habit and now I have to get back in the groove. Hope you all have a good weekend

Default Sunny Saturday

Hi Ladies
How is everyone doing this Saturday. The sun is shining here. Still not real warm. 20 degrees. But Tues and Wed the high is to be 15-17 degrees. So I guess this is a heat wave. At least no snow. May have a chance tomorrow night.
Is everyone else getting cabin fever. I guess I am. All I am wanting to do is eat. I have been having to sit around alot. But have been trying to keep my hands busy. Got a cross stitch thing about done. About a hours worth of work and it will be done. I am trying to wash clothes today. But not sure how that is going to work out. My heel is starting to bother me. So I guess I will have to go and sit and put it up. But I wanted to check in here. Say HI to everyone. And to let you know that I am thinking of you. Hope you have a great weekend.
A TOPS PAL

Eleni,

Good for you for getting back to the exercise. I know how you feel about getting off track with that. Sorry to see you gained. You will take it off this week with the exercise again. You feeling better? I hope so. Are you still hoarse?
Keep going you are doing great.

Coco,

Congratulations on the loss this week. That was great. I just joined the feb weigh ins. Haven't been here all week. Been busy and sore. You are doing great keep up the great work. What is wrong with your heal.

It seems a lot of us are off to a bad start for the month. We will make it up this week and we will all have losses right ladies?LOL

As for me I got off track myself last week. Plus all my muscles in my whole body are so sore. It got to the point where it hurt just to sit (my whole back) or put pressure on my feet. It went into my hands all over. So I finally went to the dr the other day because it was getting worse daily. They did bloodwork. She said it could be a virus that is effecting my muscles and joints. It hurts just to climb the stairs at work. So I only worked out once this past week. I am hoping to get back at it on monday. She gave me some medicine and it is starting to help. I am not as sore but still my back and feet hurt. Just not as severe. I hope it is just a virus and nothing serious.
I realized this week at work that I eat and think about food when my mind is not busy. I was busy all week stuffing envelopes. It was non stop but a no brainer. So I was thinking about food and I made sure that after I weighed in on wed and had the 1 lb gain I didn't overdo it. But I did eat wed night before I went to bed. I had some cereal. Which sat on me overnight and I gained from that. But I got back on track and I have been doing well. I am looking for a loss this week not a gain. I am concentrating too much on the numbers again and I have to change that quick. It is frustrating to know that my mind has to be very busy in order to stay on plan and not think about food. When it comes nighttime I just want to collapse because I am so tired from being so busy all day. But I still absolutely love my job. I am so thankful I have it.
Megan had her evaluation at school this week and I went and met with her teacher for a conference. She said she is at the top of the class. There is only 1 other kid in the class that knows all the letters upper and lower case and the phonetic sounds of the letters. So I was so proud and that she recognizes all her numbers and can count up to 29. I am very proud of her. They are teaching her spanish and sign language which is great. She was teaching herself the sign langauage. The teacher said that if they are going to learn a second language then now is the time to learn because they understand it more and can comprehend it. She will have to learn it in school in order to get her diploma. Plus next year she will be going to a spanish class once a week in kindergarten. So I bought her 2 videos that are spanish to teach her the everyday words in her world and songs like the abc song and happy birthday and more. Then I just ordered a computer software program for her that teaches her over 750 spanish words. To count in spanish and to tell time in spanish the whole nine yards. It is for beginners and up. It should be great. I thought I might as well do it now with her while she is interested so she can get the foundation of the language down now before she has to do it later. It will be harder later to learn. They have to learn so much to graduate now a days. Glad I graduated when I did. I would never pass now with all the requirements.
Well I got my movie sweet home alabama today. I have been wanting to see that since it came out. So tonight is the night. I hope it is good.
Have a great weekend everyone and stick to your plans. You and I can do this if we give it our all, and don't give up or in.

Sherri
