It's amazing how kids can bounce back! :hug: I am happy to hear that your girls are doing okay, Jar! My brother got hit by a car while riding our sister's bike. At the scene he could only remember the answers to half of the usual questions, and he ended up with rods in his leg and arm, and skin grafts. Before surgery mom felt sorry for him since he was hungry and gave the boy some cookies, so they had to push back surgery and she ended up being known as 'cookie mom' to all the nurses and his doctor. It's tough, but it is also nice that there is certain memories you can hold onto from that time that allow you to think positive instead of worrying about letting the boy out of the house on his own! :lol: Rob had been biking to the store for school supplies and ended up missing the beginning of the school year, that dork! (said lovingly;))

And Auntie, ow! Hazard pay is right! It's tough not being able to communicate clearly, your kid must have been so very frustrated, but that doesn't mean she can take it out on your nose! :(

Yeah, the points can be a shocker, Tina! I grabbed the wrong pudding cups at the store and now instead of a 1 pt snack, they're 3pts!!! That's crazy since I usually have two a day (instead of an easy 2 pts, I lose 6!!!).

Well, it's the twin's birthday today and my back is still aching. Looks like Kayaking is out! Though we are having dinner Sat at 8pm, so I better save my WPA 'cause I never eat that late.

I so wanted to go kayaking too, :(

Facebook---did anyone start a message on there? All I saw was a place to make a reply. ???????

Can't write now. Will post later.

Huh? :?: Tina, you have me confused.

3fc does have a facebook page, I believe.

Are you asking if we have facebook profiles?

We ended up fishing again all weekend, with another weekend at the beach planned for this upcoming weekend. I have had a GREAT time using the WW IPhone App! Counting my points and staying within my numbers has been a complete breeze.

I haven't been drinking any water though :-( Do I need to do that? How much? Are their any tips and tricks that you use to get your water?

To meet the daily guidelines, I believe it is 6 - 8 oz of liquids. Whether water, milk, or juice.

I usually drink a bit more or a little less, but I try to get 6 glasses of water a day.

On the beach it should be easy to get that down, if it is nice and hot and you are active. You might manage a bit more, who knows, :D.

I like to keep a jug or full glass of water around as a reminder. One look at that and I can tell whether or not I need to throw back some chugs or not, haha!

Hi Clint--
Ditto what Zan said about the water.

That's something about a WW IPhone app! I wonder if the same app is on an IPad???

Susan, you poor thing! I'm glad you're out of school now so your nose can heal.

Clint; try to get those fluids in, not only do they help fill you up a bit your liver needs fluid to convert fat back into usable energy for your body.
Jeanne; Thats a great story ever try writing the whole thing down for real? It would be very inspirational to others. I'm thinking one of those chicken soup books or maybe something like readers digest???
Tina; I'll check up on facebook, its prob just gliching
Susan; TGIF for real for you, have a great summer holiday. That pup sounds like he would be a great addition to the family. There isn't a day go by I don't miss my "Peppy"
Zan; what did you do to your back??
Tammy;is this your get away weekend?

Sidenote: buying nursing scrubs when you are a fat woman is no fun. I spent 4 hours today driving around town before I finally put a set together.
When I shorten the pants I'll get D to photo me and I'll post it

Jeanne I just read the story of your girls and the hair on the back of my neck is standing up. Thank god they are ok. I too love Tom Petty and will think of your children everytime I hear that song.

Mimi sorry can't wait to see the picture :)

Susan, I agree about that hazard pay!! I think a puppy is a great idea! lol Of course since that one is part dachshund, I would say that, right??

Jeanne, I just read about the car accident. It's amazing how prayers can help you through things, isn't it?

Zan, and your brother's story too! I need to start filling a jug with water and drinking it during the day. I used to do that. Have no idea why I stopped.

Mimi, I was supposed to leave this morning, but a headache got the best of me. It's a 3 hour drive to where I was supposed to meet everyone, and just the thought of driving with a headache made it worse. I'm just hanging out at home now.

Tina, I don't know about the FB thing.

Hi all,
I got one day of my exercising done today. I worked outside. I repotted and planted. Even in the shade, it was so hot!

Tammy, I'm so sorry about your headache. You were looking forward to that wine. :lol: :D Really, I hope you are feeling better by now.

I hope everyone has a great day.

Maureen, have you rested from your vacation? :)

:flow1:

Hi everyone~

Tammy - I'm sorry about your headache! :hug:

Thanks everyone for the kind words about my kids. I am so blessed! I truly would lay on Kaits hospital bed and beg God to let her live~ I knew in my soul that she wasn't ready to go and that she would bounce back if he gave her the chance! Woooosh, *sigh*, ok now, before I start crying I better move along.

Hope you're all having a good w/e! staying op and drinking lots of water????

Susan - you've been on my mind...:hug:

Tina - Good job getting some exercise in! I got 2.2 mile powerwalk with weights and Leslie Sansone this morning.

I had 11 extra activity points this week and was still -5 points! yikes!!!! Say a prayer for me that I at least stayed the same this week. Tomorrow is WI for me!

Gotta scoot Bob and I are playing some cards tonight before we watch a movie! I hope to NOT SNACK tonight! No kids tonight. It's very very quiet here!

Hi everyone,

School is done!!!! Glad it's over for a while.... I love my job and my kids!!!! Just ready for a break! I have a workshop on Monday and the one on Friday was canceled. I'm not heart broken about that. :)

Today, we went to a farmers market and bought nothing. We came home did a few chores. Pat had practice and then band tonight. I stayed home. I took an hour and half nap! Then went to Walmart. Trying to do some chores tonight because my nephew is coming tomorrow. I'm excited about that.

Oh, one of my guinea pigs died. It was the momma one. The other one is lonely, I think. I feel sorry for it.

Jeanne, You are too sweet!!! I loved your pictures on FB. Now I need to start walking.

Tina, are you still sore?

Tammy, how is your head? You poor thing.

Mimi, I know Walmart has scrubs. I want to see pictures :)

Clint, did you catch a lot? I love water but it's nice to put oranges and lemons slices for a change.

The dryer stopped so quess I better get the clothes out.

Happy Sunday :carrot:

Susan, I am so happy for you. You have time to let your nose heal :lol:
Enjoy your summer!

Mimi, Still waiting for pictures.

Maureen, soon, I'll send at least one photo of the townhouse---probably from the outside. :lol:

Jeanne, you had a fantastic weigh-in.

Dori, you are a quiet one. You too, Stephanie!
Nikki, how was the Tom Petty concert?
Tammy, is your headache better or gone?
Diane, how much exercise is on for the day?
Clint, drink that water!!!

Elyn and Yooper, let us hear from you two.

We're taking it easy today. After church, we'll go out for a bite and then home to read the paper. Exciting, huh? :dizzy:
:flow1:

Tada
