Hey guys

Hey guys,  Not alot to say, just wanted to let everyone know that life here is ok.  Just still a little down, over last weeks trauma, and this week, (to all that know my horse story) MY horse got sick, and almost died, still not out of the woods yet, so Im having trouble sitting and typing alot.   In addition to all of our animals being sick, I missed my 3 month follow up b/c we borrowed my moms car, (due to fuel mileage) and it broke down on the way, timing belt broke, so I had to reschedule and I cant get in until June 22.  When it rains it pours, but we are still alive!!

Good luck to everyone, keep up the good work, welcome to all of our newbies. 

On a good note, I went to Magic Springs today, walked alllllll day, we were there from open to close, and although I am extremely tired, I must say, I could NEVER have done it prior to my life changing opportunity.   I love you guys, and thank you more than you know for your support.  It is sooooooooo nice to be able to come here, type my blunderings, and know that you all understand. I hope everyone has a great weekend, and Susan and Angie and Tammy, I will try to post more.  Love everyone, but these 3 are just what I need most days.  Hope to hear from more folks, as summer comes up and we are busy, lets remember our friends on the losers bench, and keep it alive this summer. Love to all my WLS friends, Rhonda "the horselady"

hello....i hear ya on the down pours of life.....blah! hope things go better for you soon. it cant rain all the time. i know i should practice what i preach. things are not coming up daisies in my neck of the woods. guess thats why i have been so quiet here lately.

well it is friday and that means two days off....also no computer...so if no one hears from me it is all good. i will pop back on before i go home at 5. huggs tammy

Hey girl, I know things are hard for you right now, I've been lurking and reading just not saying much, but I have certainly been thinking of you.  I hope its not long before we can come out from under our chairs and smile again.   I hope you have a great weekend, and I pray that we all have a much better June than we have had a May.  At least Susan is back to driving, so maybe she will start behaving.  Wait, maybe she'll be really bad now, shes been cooped up so long!!!!  Oh well, I guess we'll just have to bail her out if she gets in trouble, that is, if they will take car wash tokens as bail money!!!! Hang in there babe, and know we are here for you anytime you need us. Hugs, Love ya, Rhonda

Rhonda~ I was glad to see your post! I have wondered about you everyday. I know your horse is not out of the woods yet but everyday he is getting a little stronger. I know what it is like to have to put one down.   I guess I have been in my own little world for a week or so. I have had 2 deaths in my family in one week. Things are liookin' up now. It can't always rain in Arkansas! Congrads on walking all day! What an acomplishment! I can relate to being able to walk. I actually enjoy walking now. I am going for a check up next week, ya know, my 2 month. I should come in a little under 60 lbs lost. I was able to sit in church last Sunday and cross my legs....Woo-Hoo!

Hello to everyone & Welcome Newbies! Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Huggs to everyone,

Rhonda T

Rhonda, I remember crossing my legs the first time.  And guess what, I do it all the time now!!!!  I can now cross my legs and tuck the top leg behind the other, and I do that without thinking.  Maybe we have all had all the heck we are gonna have, I hope so!!!!  Keep in touch, hope to see you at support group.  Im ready to meet all these folks from here in person. Take care, and hang in there, sorry about the losses in your family. Love ya, the other Rhonda

Wow - all day at Magic Springs - you are my inspiration!  We are tentatively planning a trip there this summer and I've been dreading it a little.  I will overcome! I'm glad that you were able to give us an update - I hope your horse gets stronger by the minute. It looks like you've had your 3 though.  My dad always told us that trouble comes in 3's.  I personally think he made it up but you've had yours so now maybe things will start going a little more your way! Have a great weekend!  AT

Angie,  I hope like heck its over!!!  We have all had our share it seems.   Magic Springs was wonderful.. If I had not just gotten out of the hospital for unidentifed pain, (Still dont have a clue whats wrong) Id have ridden much more than I did. Horse is still bad, but maybe he will be ok. Hang in there, and I hope to see you at support group. Hugs, Rhonda

Hey Darlin' Glad to see things are doing better for you. Walking all day......what a joy!  I've been busy getting ready to go back to work. Sorting through my supplies and equipment, getting new clothes(darn, don't you JUST hate that?) and sending letters out to all my clients. Sure hope a lot of them come back, my savings is all but gone....time to make some $$$!!! Talked to JoBeth, she's doing the lecture at the support meeting on the 14th and wanted me to let everyone know. I'll go to this one for sure and I'm looking forward to seeing everyone. I'll post it on the board so everyone knows. I don't have your phone #,  would you mind sending it to me in a PM? Keep feeling better, hope the horsey does too. Love ya
