Friday WLS Train, Hurray We Have

Carol cant wait to meet you this weekend.  It is going to be lots of fun I just know it!

Good morning!!!!  I can't believe I'm up already... well I never really went to bed.  Tossed and turned all night and don't think I really ever fell asleep.   I did get up around 2 and finally threw some stuff in a suitcase.  Not crazy about anything I packed...but it will do.  Not sure what time Donna and I will get into Dallas but I'm hoping to leave here by noon.   I took a personal day today because I have a few things I need to do before I can leave.

Can't wait to see everyone tonight!!!!!!

Prayers for all who need them today and safe travels for all traveling to the big "D"!!!!!

headed out the door in about 5 minutes for the places and people thing. 30 minutes late, but I'll get by.

prayers for safe travels for all of us!  Woo HOOO

Good morning, I hear this train is headed towards DALLAS...all aboard!!!!!!!!!!

Can you believe it's finally here?  I'm so excited, I didn't sleep well either.  Clay was going to come both tonight and tomorrow but I finally told him tonight was for my "peeps" and I felt like he would feel left out so guess what?  I'm free...he says he'll just come tomorrow night.  I love the manbut after 25 years of DAILY togetherness, I think I need a "girl's night out".

Got the appliance man coming this morning to look at my washer.  Told them I had to be across town at noon so we'll see how early they show up.  Since I haven't packed a thing, I guess I better get a move on.  See most of you soon and to the rest...we'll miss you but please post over the weekend so Danni won't lose her mind and to keep Alissa's mind off her foot.

Good morning Train Riders!  I don't think I've posted here all week.  Trying to figure out my schedule now that I'm working at home.  You would think I'd work less, but I'm finding I'm working even more than I did at the office.  Odd, but it's nice to be productive.  I have missed catching up with everyone here, so I'm working on a better plan of attack for the days.

Already walked the dogs and went down to the gym.  Did 15 min on the elliptical on level 2, next week I'm going to go up to 20 min on level 1 for a week and then move the level up again.  I feel so much more energized and ready for the day when I start off that way.  My weight is creeping up to the top of my bounce which annoys me but has become so regular that at least I'm not freaking out about it.  I"ll be pushing lots of fluids today and try to go low carb till tonight since I know there will be snacky things at the conf I'll want to munch on.

I've got the back of my cruiser loaded up with clothes from me and Rachel.  I'm even giving up my 2 size 4x & 5x lounging dresses.  Yes I know!  I'm in an 18/20 why in the world have I kept those things?  Well my only defense is they were comfy, but one became floor length and I decided they could go to a home that could use and appreciate them.  Annette from Sherman and I will be leaving McKinney around 5 tonight, so barring bad traffic we should be there before 6.  I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone and hopefully learning lots of good stuff.

Have a great day!

Good morning everyone,

Well, thanks to a crappy ex-husband, I will be spending more time with my peeps this weekend then I thought.  The ex has planned a last minute party for Josh on Saturday and told me about it at the last minute so I can't spend time with him on Saturday.  We took him to dinner last night with my dad and Britt and I he is coming to church Sunday.  I will also go over next week and spend time with him.  The ex is taking off Wednesday also but I have news for him.  I am spending time with him on his last day as well whether he likes it or not.  Enough of that.

I'm looking forward to the distraction of seeing my peeps.  Matty will be there too, he wants to learn what he can.  See y'all soon.  

Saying prayers for all of you.  Alissa, special ones for you today.  Tom, I'm so thrilled for you.  

Back from the airport run.  Picked up Mari P. and Laura Preston dropped them off at the Westin, now I need to concentrate on packing.  I need to get packed and loaded before King gets home to get his stuff so he doesn't see how much junk I'm taking! 

Traffic this morning was almost non-existent on the way to DFW - had an hour to kill waiting on their arrivals.  Why can't it be that way when I'm trying to catch and early morning flight?  ::sigh::

Better drag out the bags and start loading them up.  See most of ya'll this afternoon.

I'm taking my laptop and will try to post some updates and pictures along the way!

Hope everything goes well with Alissa's surgery.  Danni wish you were here and almost wish I was going with Tom on the Boy Scout camp out!  That's so great he's able (and willing) to do that now!

Here's to a wonderful, fun filled weekend ahead!!! 

You were a sweet heart for picking up the peeps.. Now, If I could just get you to be that nice to me.. Be nice to me.. I haven't given you my money for the room yet.. LOL
I get out of jail in less than 3 hours. Woo Hoo...
See you soon my skinny little blonde friend...

I have realized that I am not close with a bunch of people like most of you are. So, I haven't gotten excited. I packed this morning and I hope I have what I need. I am hoping like others that I learn something new and I am hoping that, I have someone to sit with that I know and that won't mind sharing their space.
I decided that I could stay with my mother and save money cause she lives pretty close over there. What are people doing tonight after the meet and greet? I would love a chance to get together with some people for a bit but.. if you all have it planned out already no biggie.
Talk soon as I plan on being at the meet and greet early if I can get out of here.
Have a great day all.

Hey Cindy!
Sit with me! My space ALWAYS welcomes you! See in a bit! 

And no- the queen of plans has nothing planned out for the night ........yet
