And I missed you all terribly. I was actually gone from here for four days. Two days were spent at Honor and Rememberance. I've posted a few pictures over on my Facebook. Join me there if you'd like. I'm Raven Bren. I'll post another picture or two of me here when I'm done with this. As soon as Z picked Beth and I up from that, we headed (not home) directly to Beth and Liz's to help them move. Most of the stuff had been moved but we helped with the last of the little stuff (four loads) and then I cleaned. Beth is still on crutches from her knee surgery, so she just sat in a folding chair and told me what to do. LOL... kept me company. We finally returned home and crashed and then yesterday sat all day and caught up on TV. I didn't even look at the computer (well not enough to post).

Food-wise I fell a bit off the wagon at the conference. Mealtimes were good but I did have a glass of wine at the ****tail party and the large, very fancy banquet was amazing. They served a 12 oz filet migon. I wrapped 3/4 of it and stuck it in my purse. LOL... no way was I letting that gorgeous hunk go to waste. I did eat four bites of a cheesecake. The first sugar I've had. Didn't have any problem with it... dumping? BUT... woke up the next morning with dry heaves and diarrhea. It lasted about 1/2 hour and then I just felt sore and a little queasy the rest of the day. Is that dumping even after 6 or 7 hours? Dunno, but I probably won't do that again. Yesterday then was a carb craving day and I suffered some. Today is better and I'm back on good behavior today.

Hugs to you all. You were missed... more than you know.

Glad you are back!! It's been slow in here :)

I added you to facebook and thanks for the pic comment!! 

Most welcome. It's good to be back. I tried to keep up with the reading while I was gone but it just wasn't possible.

Hi Raven!

Welcome back...  Hey I'm still waiting for our pics! But take your time I know you have been hectic. So when you have time.

Take care

Hi Heather, Z sent you the pics on Friday. Check  your spam since you probably don't have that address in your book. If you still can't fine them, let me know and I'll send them again from my computer. Sorry for the hassle sweetie.

Don't be sorry. Try my home email. It may have been to big for work. I'll send you the email address.

Glad you are back. Now we have one less person we need to kidnap!

Jeff

Darn, I came back too soon... I sure do love a good kidnapping.

Welcome Back!!!!  I've been kinda absent this weekend also, but it's great to be back, and to see you back here! 

Rutro... people will think we ran off together.
