Good Morning Alissa and My TMB Family,

Hey from Nashville TN.  Been a wonderful trip so far.  Still has not sunk in that I am not coming back to Texas but I suppose once we finally get to Dover and see our house it will.  Had a great day in Hot Springs, and learned lots of interesting things about taking a bath.  Never knew it was such a long process.  We chose not to do that.  Kind of strange if you cant do it together and they dont allow that.  Anyway today will be filled with the Grand Ole Opry..the old one and the new one I guess.  Did not know they had two.  I will take pictures and as soon as we get setteled will post them.  Feel like my eating is ok.  Trying really hard not to snack to much but its hard when you are in a car for 8 hours with nothing much else to do.  I am keepng up on the vitamins.  We did alot of walking in Hot Springs and I am sure today will be a day full of it too.  Granted its not a fast vigerous walk but at least it is a walk.  Ok family is starting to stir and alsmost time for Continental breakfast.  Prayers for all in need today especially Viv and her family, and Jenny and Eric.  Have a blessed day.  Love you guys.  Michelle

My parents live outside of memphis TN so one year the kids and I met them in Hot Springs. We all decided to do the bath experience. I felt kind of awkward having someone draw my water, help me in the tub while I was naked, loofah my back while I sat there naked and then help me out of the tub. Kaylee was about 12 so she wasn't too pleased. Chase, my nudist, said he felt weird as well. I don't think I'd do it again, but I would visit Hot Springs.

We went to Hot Springs when Chris was 2 and I did the bath house thing- it was really weird as you said. And the needle spraying shower hurt me! I've got sensitive skin though.

I'm thankful today because my BFF is coming in from New Mexico this afternoon (it's her birthday). Tomorrow we're driving to Austin to catch a Los Lonely Boys concert and spend the night.  I haven't had an adventure in so long!

Also, Operation E-Book Drop now has a FaceBook page.  If you're interested, check it out.  We've got a lot of authors.,  Now we need soldiers to hear about it.

Have a great day, y'all.  And thanks for being here.

Good morning.  I have a busy day at the high school all day with 7 ARD meetings.  Yuck...but has to be done.  Shopping at Walmart after that then home for a few more chores.  I'm taking tomorrow off of work to de-stress before the weekend.

Prayers for all who need them.

Karen...that's the pits that they continued you until Dec.  Maybe it will turn out for the best w/ patience.

Have a great day Thursday!

Patience is not one of my virtues! LOL  BUT!!!! If we get the kids back, then it will have been well worth the wait, stress, time I've committed to it!

Good morning to all! I am thankful today for my WLS and the good things that it has brought to me this year. My health issues that are being resolved & my wonderful friends that I have met here thru this site. I am hosting Thanksgiving at my house this year for my family(parents, bros and kids and their kids along with my own) which I have not ever done but now that I am able to do things because of my back issues being pratically resolved I can now do all the work involved with that!
Prayer going out today for everyone! Special prayers for Eric and Jenny and Viv and her situation...I would like to ask a request of my own: please remember my Mother-she has a torn ligament in her knee and sees a specialist on Monday. Thank you! I love you all! Annette, too
If we don’t put our efforts into creating what we want, then we have to put our efforts into coping with what we get!  

HW: 277/ CW: 170/ GW: 157 Exercise goal: 4x a week.
