Just thought I'd swing in for a quick hello. I've been very busy.  I started my new second job Tue evening which starts 30 minutes after my full-time day job.  I'm working tonight early from 5:30 - 9 and probably the same hour Fri and then full days on Sat and Sun as Sat if our grand opening at the new C.J. Banks in Duluth.  Tonight they are doing what they call a soft open (unannounced to the public) so we will open from 6 - 9.  Unfortunately, non of us got our register training because the phone lines were down Tue so it's like we will all be clueless.  I know where the keys for the dressing rooms are, but I don't know where the dressing rooms are located.  I know where to put the hold clothing and the clothing that have problems and I know where the hangers go........ I have no idea about the clothes or the seperates or the go together stuff...... I don't even know the phone number to the place or when payday is, and as of Tue night there was no schedule put together.  Not a very good way to train people that's for sure.   Anywho, tonight when they do this soft open, everything will be 40% off!  I get 50% off, but I don't know if that includes items marked down or not.  I have about 7 items I fell in love with that I'd like to own and of course I will need some nice work clothes any way. I'm still holding steady haven't lost anything in almost 6 months and my weight goes from 178 to 180 on any given day.  People still think I've lost more.  I noticed the skin on my upper arms is just hanging and even on the front it's starting to drop down.  Looks weird.  Still have the tummy over hang and the skin is starting to hang down on my inner thighs...... YIKES. Things are going wonderfully in my personal life and I couldn't have asked for a more wonderful man in my life than Bob.  Now hopefully with additional job and being on my feet for several hours and moving about I'll burn some more calories and start losing again.

You sound like one busy lady!  Not sure I recall reading about Bob, but YAY YOU!  Just be sure you make some time for him! As for the icky hanging skin, you wouldn't want the packed-tight full o'fat skin back, would you?    I DIDN'T THINK SO!!!  Good luck with the new PT job!!!

LOL Darla sometimes ya gotta do what ya gotta do.  To make a long story short, I moved out at the end of May and I will eventually have a X.  Something I wanted to do for 16 years.  Bob whom I've known for about 6 years and has been there for me through everything and I do mean everything, knew I couldn't afford my own place and I so I moved in with him.  I am learning to live again and it's been a ball.  I got a part-time evening job for fun and because I need the money.

The hanging skin it kinda the pits, but no, I sure wouldn't want to fill it out again. btw, if that a puppy your are trying eat?? Kathleen

Oh darn I will be out of town this weekend!!!   Maybe I'll have to try to sneak up there tonight.   I mean I do have a wedding to go to on Saturday.....hehehe...good excuse as any.   Glad things are going well for you.    Sounds like the mess my son was in when he started at the new Little Caesar's Pizza place.....not a very good start at all.   Maybe I'll see you around up there.
