COME OUT OCT PEEPS..........some of you are gone and i wanna no how you are!!!! I have not seen kiki or cecila,and marcia..........i wanna see ya lol.............post a hello if ya are out and are lurking.......... i love all of my oct board peeps...........vickie

Oh I'm around. Spent today cleaning, scrubbing, scouring my kitchen stove, fridge, cupboards and floor. I live in a very old condo with the original kitchen cabinets. They've been painted over so many times it's hard to get them clean without scrubbing the paint off! Now that I'm able to do serious cleaning (before the weight loss I was worthless lol), I'm enjoying this serious cleaning, it feels good to finally get this apt in shape!! I may be moving out of here in Feb, but at least I'll enjoy clean until then LOL. Now when I get in there to start baking Christmas cookies and treats, it'll be a pleasure to be in such a clean kitchen! I'm glad to see you are home and doing better. I hope you continue to get stronger and feel better and better. Hang in there!!! Jeanne in Miami

Hi Vickie! I haven't been around in a while but I jump on here from time to time to read a few messages so I figured I would say hello! Life has been so wonderful and so busy thanks to this WLS! I need to update my profile and my blog soon! HUGS, Vi

Hey Vi yes you do. I was also wondering how you have been? I heard from Dawn and Nick just today. She stays on her home state board mostly. How is your support group going? Jane

The group has been doing fabulously but I have to admit I've been a bit MIA there too! Life keeps me busy and thankfully the girl who started the group is very devoted to it. She even opened up her own protein/supplement store!!

Not hiding, promise!!! Life is just so busy at the moment. Hoping that at the beginning of the year things will settle down a bit and I can lurk once again where I love to be. What a difference a year makes! Last year I had just had my surgery and wasn't up to cooking or shopping. This year I'm doing too much of that! Even sneaking a few things into the buggy for myself...lol. I'm still 15 pounds from my personal goal. In January I'm going to start an exercise program here at home, using my exercise DVD's. Hubby just got a job on St. Croix, Virgin Islands and I can't move there looking like this!!! Got to tone what I can. He leaves on January 6th but I won't move with him until my baby graduates from high school in May. Then I have an artshow in June. So I won't join him until the first part of July. That gives me six months to get into bathing suit shape! Yes, we'll be leaving our three college students here at home in our house! Am I crazy or what? Anyhow, hope everyone else is enjoying the hoiday season! Peggy B.
