Ok gals....I'm not usually the panicky type, but this weather has really got me all up in arms. There have been tornadoes all over the state of Tennessee.....they've been showing on the tv where downtown Jackson has been completely wiped out. We've had tornado watches, but so far that's all.

The only thing we have had is rain....TONS of it, with high winds and hail. As I sit here typing this now, hail is "plinking" off my window. They closed the schools today at 11:00am due to flooding, so Mom had to pick the boys up at school and take them home. I don't remember how long it's been, if ever...when it's been such a mess. Keep us in your prayers....
I also have another success to report. You know those days when you just want to eat the door off the hinges?

I had one of those days yesterday and I want you to know, I did NOT succumb to it.

I was a good girl.....stayed within my points, drank my water and did the 2 mile WATP. I am
increasing in strength. I hope that means I will be
decreasing in size.
Michelle: First of all....let me say, YUCK! I absolutely hate going to the dentist. You are much better than me girl....luckily I don't have to go that often. (knock on wood)

Sorry you had trouble trying to move my post over....you can bring it over without the pic of me and Tony.....I'll forgive you. But just once.
2cute:Glad you're getting to enjoy some time with your daughter....it sounds like you've been really busy. Don't forget us.
Thin: We love you too and we will hold down the fort till you get back. Once again, I am sorry to hear about your friend's father, and my thoughts are with you as well because I know that you were very close her family. {{hugs}}
Amanda: First off....you come here as often as you need to. Someone will always be here for you. You are at the hardest part of your journey right now.....the beginning. At least that's the way I look at it. Changing your eating habits, after they've been one way for a very long time, to me, is the hardest part. Yes, it's hard to keep going sometimes, but I feel like after you've starting....after awhile, it just becomes second nature, and the better you feel and the more you are able to stop worrying about things.....like if you go into a restaurant and they want to sit you in a booth...will the table scoot? Or when you go to the movies, are the seats going to be comfortable or are you going to be squeezed to death? You know, things like that. After awhile, even though you will still be aprehensive at times....you'll get to stop worrying about these things all together. And that my friend.....they can NOT put a price on.
Sandy: First thing I have to tell you girl is... snap out of it!

Just kidding. You must be having a bad day. I can
promise you girl....
Lucky would
never say anything remotely rude or hateful to us. It's just not in her nature.....of course, she could have me fooled.

Just kidding...yet again. She was just kidding around with you....like she always does. I think emotions have been running a little high around here lately, but I just wanted to clear that with you, ok? You absolutely crack me up about calling your dh to see who won the race...

I love it!
Deon: Glad to see you popping in. I'm sorry that you're sick and hope you feel better soon. {{sending you tissues, oj and some chicken noodle soup}}
Lori: Thank you so much for that recipe. I have seen it posted several times and heard it was good and I had lost it when I copied it down. I think I will make some tonight!
Kat: You crack me up.

The kiddie umbrella my friend was holding didn't quite do the trick for two women of, shall we say, "ample proportions."

Been there...done that.

You should have seen me, dh and Trey trying to squeeze under one the other day.....it was definitely a sight to behold.
Lucky: Oh my! Should we call you MRS. Lucky now....sounds like you are totally "official" now girl. Wow! I am so proud of you and you totally deserve it! Your own office.. how cool is that? I will definitely keep my fingers crosed for that hansome, hunky assistant!
Barb: So sorry that I got you and Lori mixed up. I guess I had you on my mind while I was typing her reply....

Wow...sounds like you've been kicking butt with all that exercising! I think I may get me one of those tapes too. Thanks for telling us about it. I'm always up for something new!
Tracy: First of all, let me say how sorry I am that you lost your post. I really hate it because I would have loved to have read it. Like I said the other day, I hope you continue reading and know that we are always here when you decide you want to join in. I live in Cleveland, Tn. which is a little more in the valley. I am so happy to have a little friend here in the south with me! I am afraid to go back to the other thread to look at your location, because I think the computer might throw me off, but I believe it said "Spartanburg" SC. We are going to the race in a couple of weeks in Charlotte, NC and I believe we will be really close to you and I would LOVE to get together. Let me know, ok?
Mary: I know you're busy sweetie, but I don't have to tell you where we always are. Pop in when you can to let us know how you are. Are you getting all this crappy rain too?
Ok ladies....I'm getting out of here for now. I have been sitting here forever seems like and I'm sure my co-worker might want me to do a little work.
Love you guys!
