The weekend's over and im back :)

GOOD MORNING!!!!! Im so glad that Monday is here and i pray that it goes as planned. I wi**** would quit raining, but im praying and having faith that it's going to be a good monday!!! 

If you would, please spare a prayer that God be in control today!

I lost my dad back in March. Ive been trying to sell his house ever since. We've had a closing date set TWICE and its fell thru with the buyers banks. SO, i got the foreclosure notice and everything and i knew that one of the mortgage companies had a sale date set at Sept. 9th. Well, right at the end of last month we had one guy that had looked at the house a few times and had wanted to get a contract going but then lost his job. Well, he's landed a new job and got his money thru the bank and everything is set to CLOSE.....TODAY!!!!!!! I really didnt want Dad's house to go into foreclosure. I wanted to sell it so someone else could enjoy the home that he had. I think its more of a "make dad proud and sell it " thing going on in my head. I didnt want to disappoint anyone, but yet i cant control unforseen cir****tances either! I hope today goes well!

This weekend i ran off to the country house w/ a few friends. jayden was away with my aunt all weekend so i went fishin and got in the hot tub, grilled out. I did pretty good with my eating. Except for yesterday. SO today, im back on the wagon. My stomach is still feeling weird so im going to be doing protein shakes until i feel like eating again.

I dont have internet at my house yet. I did have AOL dialup on my home computer, but it crashed and im not real sure how to get it on my laptop. I wanted to get DSL anyways, so im just gonig to bear with it and wait.

A big thanks to Loretta for doing the eating posts. Those were originally her posts and i hope she doesnt feel like i was taking them away. I'll GLADLY give them back! LOL I just have to track my food and i have to get off this regain.

Lets all have a motivated week so we'll all be happy with our WEIGH-IN on FRIDAY!!!!

Have a Happy Monday :)

I for one don't mind having several posts concerning what we're eating. Loretta did great posts and I loved reading them. When she stopped I was so glad to see you start it back up. It doesn't matter who the author is as long as I can be accountable to someone. I admire both of you ladies for different reasons. Loretta has been through some tough trials but she seems to always bounce back. I respect that so much in a person. You have my admiration as well. You've been through a lot at such a young age but you have determination and faith. You are a winner Hillary!!

God bless you both and I'll respond to anybody who wants to keep us in line with our goals.

I had something come up this weekend that had my emotions wondering if they were coming or going. I'm still not sure if what I learned has upset me or made me angry. I wish I could talk to someone about it but its one of those things I'm going to have to just take to the Lord and let Him help me sort it out.

I'll be praying that today does go well for you with the house situation. I'm sure this is very emotional for you. I'm also praying that the rain will stop and the sun will shine just for you.

Blessings,
DebbieDoo

Thank you sweetie :) I love you so much! You dont know how much you inspire me. Really.

I dont want to step on anyones toes. I DO hope that since i cant be on, on the weekends, that someone takes over. me and Elle have had this discussion about her dinner posts thru pm before. I dont think she cares and when she's ready to start taking back over, i'll gladly let her. Like you, i just need to be accountable!!! Since i cant get on at night, i do the post before i leave work :)

I'll pray that the lord helps you sort out whatever it was that made you angry. I hate to have angry feelings but sometimes they happen. Hand it oer to the Lord and He will sort it out!!!

I hope you have a fantastic day Mrs Debbie!!!

Glad to see ya back, and it sounds like you had some much deserved "me" time.  I am also glad you will be closing on your Dad's house today!  I am in mortgage servicing, so I have to unfortunately foreclose homes, and it is in most cases bad for everyone.  Banks really don't want the houses, and we are glad when situations like yours work out.  There are a few bad apples out there though that don't deserve home ownership.....and they usually wreck a house before we get it back.  That is so sad.  I could never destroy my home....it is an extension of me.  God forbid, if I ever lost mine, it would be in good shape when I moved out.

I pray that never happens to anyone.....foreclosure hurts many, many people.

Have a good day, and I look forward to our "whatcha eatin" post later!

Good morning Hilary!!!!  I am praying that God will cause all concerned to have favor and that the sell goes through.  God is ever faithful and He will do exactly what is best in this situation.  He always does!!! 

I agree with DebbieDoo...all of y'all can post eating posts.  I need them, desperately.  I just wish I could lost this last 30.  I am 4 years out (yesterday) and have maintained, but still want those last few to leave LOL.  I don't think they will go on their own though LOL.

You have you a great day today !!!
