WHATS HAPPENING ,,,,,,,,MONDAY

Good Morning to all, Glad to have my feet planted on Missouri soil again. Got home Sunday nite at 9:30. Thank you Jesus for a safe trip. Had a wonderful time, and got on the scale this morning- first in 10 days and my weight is the same. No loss and no gain. That is probably the first time ever I didnt gain on vacation, and with exercise and all sometimes you build muscle. So this morning I did my exercise again. Start back to work in the morning and in 2 weeks we are leaving for 4 days again. Only this time we are joining our youngest daughter in Vegas. She is going to a medical inservice and has invited us to join her so we could spend some special time together. I get to go to some seminars with her. Really looking forward to that. Everyone remember our support group tonight. Hope to see some new faces there. Nice to be home but I kept up with you in Texas. he he he he. Colette

Dear Jan and OH Peeps~ Jan-I know that sometimes things can be typed in a totally different manner than what you wanted them to mean-I meant it when I said that I figured thats what happened, and you know that I love ya...I would NEVER, for a second, want you to stop doing this post-or have to worry about what you say... YOU have NEVER attacked anyone maliciously, and because of that, I know where your heart is!! Also-I KNOW that it has happened to everyone-where someones misinterpets what you thought you were typing and then it gets out of hand!! I think of you and Joe as family-and I always look forward to seeing you at the meetings and getting a hug, or seeing your new jeans-LOL..So-since the 3 of us are okay-then I think we should just move on and let it stay where it needs to-in yesterday and forgiven and forgotten-and that it can just be laid to rest. No need for anyone to have to pick sides or go to battle...its not a popularity contest-its a misunderstanding that got out of control and is now over! Thanks for sharing that about your back. I did ask if they were fibroid or fatty and he said no-but I will know more on Thurs when I go in...have to go get my disk from the hospital with my x-rays etc on them...Like I said earlier-I really thought that lump down by my tailbone was from my spinal tap I had when I delivered Stephanie over 16 years ago....but..who knows? I was so hoping to make it to the meeting tonite so I could show you my back and see what you thought!! Oh, and by the way, I sent your tote with Mel, in case I dont make it tonite-you would at least get your tote back!! Thanks again for the clothes...I appreciate it more than you know...On my limited income, I dont have money to buy things brand new for no more than I can wear them and over in our area-they dont carry too many plus sizes at the Salvation Army or things like that.... The truck-no its not real-holy cow-my back sure couldnt take that right now. Besides, Mike doesnt let me drive his big old 4X4 Blazer (I call it the Blazn8r) because the last time I drove it-I hurt it.....and he has no sense of humor-LOL!! This is the RC truck he got me-and it runs over 30 mph-its amazing....the boys and I played with it all weekend long...the boys being put on 1/2 power though-so they wouldnt tear it up, thats my job-LOL I tell you what-when we get my car done and I get to race-you can come and take it down the quarter mile-suited up and everything-so then one of your dreams would come true-you are NEVER too old-and I would be proud to let ya do it! Told Mike I want my pit crew to be all women and we will cll them the FORMER fatties!! Oh-did Splenda go to the dr yet? I hope so-and if she didnt go-I hope she at least called. I have been praying for her and I hope she is better soon....I know she wants to be able to eat and drink and I know that when someone has a tough time after surgery, its very frustrating....Please post and let us know what happened. Well, I have had a pretty busy day so far....still not sure if I am going to make it to the meeting or not-depends on what time Mike gets home from work. He is stuck down in the middle of mac county and thats about an hour drive from here-and if he is there until 4:30, he will never make it back in time for me to take off....will have to wait and see! Mel can post later about the appt....all I am going to say is that I thank everyone for praying, and hopefully, she will be out of pain soon....yeah! Tammy, thanks for the info on Christa....would love to come and see you-or have you come up and visit us again...maybe this summer-after your surgery, you and Joe can come up to our annual pool party-plan on having a lot of people from the board here, and we do it around the 4th of July-and everyone brings out fireworks or whatever. So, we have a real good time...then you could just stay overnite and drive back the next day-oK? I am SO HAPPY that you have lost 25# and have done so good! I am so very very proud to be your friend-and I am proud of how you are handeling all of this. May not say that when you put those cigs down and are a bit crabby-LOL!!! Oh-and I am so very happy to hear that our little princess Christa is doing well!!! YEAH..she was on my mind a lot-and I prayed for her so often!! Deb M, would love to go for a ride on the bike-I envy you!!! I can just imagine you in your leather and chaps-LOL...with a bumper sticker that says - BAD *SS TOYS ARENT JUST FOR BOYS-LOL!!! You go girl-and IF you offer to take me for a ride-heck, there is NO WAY I will turn you down!!! I also want to thank you for your email the other day and seeing everyones points and not making the situation worse-you were so graceful and caring and it sure came through in your post. You are a wonderful lady and I cant wait to meet you at the reunion.....I love that you werent judgemental or harmful to anyone!! Hey, when will you know if you are going to renew your vows? I am in the middle of planning a wedding right now....its gonna be here before we know it-YIKES.... Vesta, Lana. Claudette, I do look forward to seeing you tonite-and if I dont-I will catch you next month for sure. Will be nice to see Andrew and Susan there as well. Tammy said somthing about grabbing Sherr sometime and getting to a support group, but not sure she meant ours or somewhere else by them????dont remember for sure. Well, I am gonna go for now....Have to take a pill for my back and lay down for a bit. I hope everyone is having a good day and will see ya tomorrow. Love, Janet

Janet, you hit the nail on the head.... Things "Typed" don't come off "right" some times. Nothing that I typed (NOT ONE WORD) the past couple of days was to you AT ALL. I am sorry you thought that. You are a kind soul, and have enough to handle right now. Now, for the people that are "SKEERED".... COME OUT...COME OUT Where Evvvvver you are......(((in that scary horror movie voice))) If you have a question, about anything I Type, ask me....do you think Janet REALLY needs any more crap right now? COME ON.... I hope you get to feeling better, and can find some peace for yourself. If you hear anymore about Sugar, keep us all posted.
