Hey Y'all!!

Happy NEW YEAR!!  What's everyone been up to? How was the holiday's for everyone?  I'm just now getting back into the swing of things... I had a hysterectomy on 12/5 ... lemme tell ya.. I never realized how bad I was feeling until I had that badboy taken out... I'm no longer in ANY pain!!  I had no pain from the surgery what so ever... just 4 little holes on my belly that healed really quickly... It's wonderful!! I took a month off work... could have taken 6 weeks.. but I was getting bored at home. So decided to come back to work a few weeks early..  I'm down 105 .. which makes me simply OVERWEIGHT!! I'm no longer Obese!!!! (( I never thought I would be so happy about being just over weight!!!)) I'm in a 12 slim pants and a large top..even my shoe size has gone down!!!! I think I want to drop another 25 to 30 ... that should put me where I feel my best!!!  Anyway... I just wanted to stop by and say HELLO!!! I miss y'all!!!

STEPHANIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE How the heck are ya??????????// I'm so glad you are better and the surgery went well. Happy 2008 to ya. Are you still going to take that welding class? Women in welding helmets are very sexy ya know---I'm thinkking back to FlashDance I'm a man-iac man-iac on the floo--oo--ooorrr SO VERY GLAD you are doing well.  Missed ya Chris

STUDLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You sexy little thing you!! How the hell are you? How was your holidays?  I had a wonderful quiet Christmas.. and New Years!! I even had a few sips of " Applepie Moonshine" on New Years Eve... Nothing says class like toasting the New Year with moonshine from a mason jar!!!  And yes... I'm still signed up for the welding classes.. we got such a huge response for the classes that we're all filled up now.. since I work for the company already.. I let other people go ahead of me on the list so we can get some decent workers in here... we're so short handed. I'm just worried about my hair in that helmet.. and OMG if I break a nail! But I am WOMAN.. I can do this.. if for no other reason than to prove a point to the company president who told me I wouldn't last a week in the class... 

Holidays were very quiet. Had in laws in town, OOOHHHH I bought a road bicycle--thought I'd give my ankles and knees a little break. Took it out last SUnday for the first time--did 20 miles. I tell ya, 20 miles on a bike is SO MUCH EASIER than 20 miles running. I am still running thogh. Monday starts the registration for the Disneyworld 2009 marathon next January--I am going to sign up for the 13 mile on Sat and the 26 mile on Sunday...and if you do both races-you get a SPECIAL GOOFY MEDAL!!!

39 miles in two days.. YOU ARE GOOFY!!! LOL it would take me a month to do that! LOL congrats!

A SPECIAL GOOFY MEDAL ? Why does it not shock me that you are striving for that ??   I just picked Logan up last night ... He was at Disney for a family reunion with his dad. They spent 9 days there. What in the hell can one person do at a theme park for 9 days ??? If I were to have gone, they had better have a "24/7 BAR" for me to sit at.. cause I could only take so much of Mickey and his friends.. After about day 2 .. I think I would find a way to BBQ that rodent...

welcome back! and wow you brought chris back from the DEAD! LOL.. im glad your surgery went well and you are pain free now!!! :) congrats on the weight loss thats awesome! :) jen

Thanks Jen... damn it's been a while since I've seen/chatted with you... 

yea im not at work today , my girls are out of school today and kassidy has a fever from what i believe is a kidney infection from her kidney reflux.. we go to the doc at 5 for that.. so i have some time to play online while they play barbies! lol

Barbie ? I wanna play Barbie!!!  I use to always steal my brothers GI Joe so Barbie would have someone to make out with... I had a Ken doll.. but let's face it... KEN ~Verses~ GI JOE ... COME ON!! GI Joe wins hands down!! Gotta love a man in uniform! Plus.. I use to love to rub his head.. that fake hair always felt *****ly.. (( OK.. I think I just admitted to molesting a doll   ))
